Steve Phillips Fired From ESPN

Steve Phillips

This is a follow up to the October 24, 2009 article "What Were They Thinking" regarding ESPN sportsanchor Steve Phillips and the adulterous sex scandal surrounding him. Mr. Phillips was fired the next day, as was his mistress, Brooke Hundley.

It has been revealed, this was not Phillips' first affair on the job, as he was in a similar situation in 1998, for which he was sued.

Brooke Hundley

Therefore, to his adulteress, Brooke Hundley, contrary to what you cruelly wrote to his wife, you really, "Were just some girl he was having sex with in parking lots" as he's done this before. However, he stayed with his wife, not you.

Adulteresses take note. Most men love their wives. Just because they cheat, does not mean the extramarital affair means something to them. However, said conduct is wrong.

Former Mets GM fired by ESPN

Posted on Sunday, 10.25.09 - FILE - In this Oct. 28, 2002, file photo, New York Mets general manager Steve Phillips introduces new Mets manager Art Howe during a news conference at Shea Stadiium in New York. Phillips has been fired by ESPN after admitting to an affair with an assistant at the cable network.

Baseball analyst Steve Phillips was fired by ESPN on Sunday night, less than a week after he admitted having an affair with a production assistant at the cable network.

A representative for Phillips also announced the former Mets general manager was entering a treatment facility "to address his personal issues."...

"Steve Phillips is no longer working for ESPN," network spokesman Josh Krulewitz said in a statement. "His ability to be an effective representative for ESPN has been significantly and irreparably damaged, and it became evident it was time to part ways."...

Marni Phillips filed for divorce Sept. 14, according to court records.

In 1998, Steve Phillips admitted having sex with a Mets employee, who sued for sexual harassment. That case was settled out of court. Phillips was fired by the Mets in 2003...

What Were They Thinking

Steve Phillips

Handsome ESPN sportscaster, Steve Phillips, is the subject of a national sex scandal, as his 22-year-old, troubled co-worker, Brooke Hundley, with whom he has been conducting an extramarital affair, began stalking his wife and children.

Brooke Hundley

Hundley should get a grip on the situation. The man is better off with his family. However, his wife, Mari Phillips, who is understandably hurt and wounded by this betrayal by her husband and criminal stalking by Hundley, has filed for divorce.

David Letterman is also embroiled in a sex scandal with co-workers

I dislike it when single women prey on married men and vice versa. Some married men behave like complete bimbos, but some do try to be faithful and it is quite reprehensible when certain women deliberately decide to put temptation in their way.

Infidelity and divorce results in broken homes, broken families and broken hearts. So many spouses and children are scarred by their parents divorces and take that hurt with them all through life.

In short, learn to control your impulses and choose faithfulness over infidelity.

Brooke Hundley used Craiglist to harass Steve Phillips' wife

October 23, 8:49 PM - The New York Post said that Brooke Hundley, the 22-year-old production assistant who had an affair with ESPN analyst Steve Phillips, used Craigslist to hire a woman to make phone calls to Marni Phillips.

Hundley posted a Craigslist ad on August 5 offering $50 to someone willing to torture Phillips' wife over the phone. Courtney Arp, a Connecticut waitress, answered the ad and gave an interview to the Post. "She wanted someone to call her 'friend' that night to say her husband was cheating on her," Arp said.

Arp said Hundley e-mailed her a script of what to say to Marni Phillips. Hundley's script called for Arp to tell Marni that Steve had been cheating with a "young woman at our work" and "if you want to catch them tonight, they are planning to meet after the show at 12:30ish in the Target parking lot...."...

Unanswered Questions In Erin Andrews Case

Erin Andrews

On Saturday, October 3, 2009, The FBI arrested insurance salesman, Michael David Barrett, in Chicago, Illinois and charged him with stalking and spying on ESPN sportscaster, Erin Andrews.

Yesterday, according to the Associated Press, the FBI has been unable to match up one of the videos to the correct hotel it was illegally and secretly filmed in, violating Andrews privacy, through a modified peephole. They claim all the other videos were filmed in Nashville, Tennessee.

As stated on the Judiciary report on October 3, 2009, the FBI failed to explain how Michael David Barrett, knew Andrews' schedule well enough, to follow her around, state to state, at different hotels and obtain rooms next to her, to engage in illicit, voyeuristic filming, without permission.

It was initially stated on TMZ, the website Michael David Barrett first offered the criminally filmed nude clips of Andrews, that it was an inside job, pointing the finger at an anonymous person, working at ESPN.

It made sense, as celebrities do not disclose to the general public, which hotels they will be staying in at any time.

If it was not an inside job as TMZ claimed, how was this man able to know such private information, such as the exact location she was staying in different states?

There are so many hotels out there. How did he know which one she would be staying at each time, her room numbers and when she would be there, enabling him to book a suite right next to her on more than one occasion?

Did he commit additional acts of invasion of privacy to obtain her schedule, as this creates quite a hole in this sick story?

Furthermore, did no one notice him standing in front of hotel room doors for an extended period of time, holding a cell phone up to the modified keyhole (to permit illegal filming)?

And speaking of that, did no one notice this man modifying keyholes at different hotels? That does not seem like something one can do in a minute or two.

Why didn't hotel hallway surveillance cameras catch this misconduct?

Why did he not check into a booked hotel room in Milwaukee next to Andrews that also had a modified peephole?

The FBI needs to answer the aforementioned questions.

Insurance man accused of stalking ESPN's Andrews

Asked how Barrett had gotten interested in Andrews, if the allegations are true, or how he managed to get the adjacent hotel rooms, Beuke said he assumed it was not true. Chicago FBI spokesman Ross Rice said he did not know how Barrett allegedly became interested in Andrews.

An FBI affidavit said agents had reviewed eight videos and all but one had appeared to be taken in a single hotel. It said Andrews had reviewed several and said they appeared to be of her in a room at the Marriott Nashville at Vanderbilt University.

Authorities said Barrett had occupied an adjacent room, and that the peephole in the door of Andrews' room appeared to have been modified with a hacksaw to permit videos to be made with a cellphone camera.

Bethesda, Md.-based Marriott International Inc. issued a statement saying the company takes its guests' security and privacy seriously and it has been cooperating with investigators.

Agents also went to the Ramada Conference Center in Milwaukee, formerly the Radisson Airport. The affidavit said Barrett had made a reservation in the hotel for a night when Andrews was staying there and that the peephole in the room that she occupied had been similarly modified.

But they said Barrett had never checked in, and the interior of the room did not fully match what was seen on the eighth video...

Reservation records in the hotel's computer showed the notation: "INFO-GST RQST TO RM NXT TO (individual A)," the affidavit said...

TMZ's Bamboozling Erin Andrews Coverage

By DAULERIO, 7:30 PM on Sat Oct 3 2009, 10,564 views (Edit, to draft, Slurp)

TMZ has curiously been anointed the white-hatted hero for turning over the email address of the individual accused of tearing apart a peephole and filming Erin Andrews undressed multiple times. So why did they screw up the story so badly?

According to the affidavit, Michael David Barrett contacted Dennis Broad of TMZ on January 28th and tried to broker a deal for his grainy EA peephole footage. TMZ turned him down because they wanted no parts of it, according to Harvey Levin. I spoke to Levin on July 16th, after the links to the footage started to show up in our inbox to see if he'd heard anything about it. At the time, Levin said he "knew nothing about it" and "wouldn't run it anyway because it's illegal." Fair enough. But once the story broke and it couldn't be ignored any longer, TMZ went full-throttle on Erin Andrews after "reviewing" the tape that had been sent to them in January, apparently.

So they have a possible lead on the man's identity, Levin's talking to EA's lawyer, Marshall Grossman, yet TMZ continued to float theories that this was possibly an ESPN employee even though they have a key bit of evidence and access to the FBI and EA's legal team that would give them full control of the story. But instead of following up on all of these latest revelations as they happen, they opted to go with her old yearbook photo.

I spoke to Thom Mrozek of the US Attorney's office and he told me that there were some questions about how TMZ handled it and some of their inconsistent reporting give they knew so much about it. Mrozek didn't want to speak on behalf of TMZ or speculate as to why it happened. And, surprisingly, Levin has not responded yet to my email request to answer this question either. I'm very popular...

Arrest In Erin Andrews Hidden Camera Case

Erin Andrews

The FBI has arrested a suspect in the Erin Andrews hidden camera case. Michael David Barrett was apprehended at O’Hare airport in Chicago, Illinois.

He was tied to the crime via an email address used to offer criminally filmed footage of Andrews naked in her hotel room, which is a sick, perverted, gross invasion of privacy.

Michael David Barrett facing the judge

The FBI has failed to explain how he knew Andrews’ schedule so well, it enabled him to find her at various hotels, at the precise moments to commit these acts of perversion and nastiness, against the unsuspecting sportscaster.

Many believed it to be an inside job, someone who knew her ESPN schedule, as newspapers have stated the footage was secretly shot in several hotel rooms.

Voyeurism is a crime and so is stalking, particularly aggravated stalking. Both constitute felonies.

FBI: Man arrested in ESPN reporter nude video case

LOS ANGELES — A Chicago-area man accused of filming surreptitious nude videos of ESPN reporter Erin Andrews in a hotel room was arrested at Chicago's O'Hare airport Friday night, the FBI said.

Michael David Barrett faces federal charges of interstate stalking for taking the videos, posting the videos online and trying to sell them to celebrity Web site TMZ, the FBI said in a statement. He's scheduled to make an initial court appearance Saturday morning in U.S. District Court in Chicago.

The charges were filed in Los Angeles, where TMZ is based. Andrews is identified in the federal complaint as E.A.

Barrett, 48, was arrested after returning from a trip to Buffalo, N.Y., authorities said.

Seven of the eight videos posted online were taken through a modified door peephole while the 31-year-old Andrews was alone and undressed in hotel rooms in Nashville, Tenn., in September 2008. Investigators believe the eighth video was taken in a hotel in Milwaukee in July 2008.

Several TV networks and newspapers aired brief clips or printed screen grabs from a blurry five-minute video in July...

Hollywood Perverts

How does an industry, based on entertainment such as music, film and television, fall so far from the reaches of grace and in such a thoroughly depraved manner, that it leads them to believe, the laws that everyone in society must adhere to, does not apply to them.

How is it many in Hollywood believe, they are somehow empowered to illegal wiretap others through private investigators, which is still being done in spite of the Anthony Pellicano verdict, install thoroughly invasive and unthinkably nasty hidden cameras in people's homes and hotel rooms, stalk innocent people with the intent to abuse, electronically bug targets' cars and terrorize others over perceived verbal offenses, real or imagined.

Erin Andrews

When I read stories such as the appalling Erin Andrews invasion of privacy case, which is in reference to the pretty ESPN sportscaster, whose right to privacy was thoroughly and unconstitutionally violated, by a depraved criminal, executing an inside job, I shake my head in disgust and wonder how the government could allow Hollywood to drag the nation to such profound, invasive lows.

Evi and Randy Quaid

When I read about the case regarding Evi Quaid, the shameful wife of "Brokeback Mountain" actor, Randy Quaid, engaging a private investigator to abuse, harass and threaten innocent members of a local cast, her husband debased himself and physically and verbally abused, out of sheer arrogance, fuelled by his fading celebrity, I shake my head and question how such people achieve any sort of prominence to the point the government allows them to violate the rights of others.

What if the physical abuse had lead to serious injury or death. How does one justify such a thing in the press. An actor, whose job in essence is to be peaceful and non-violent, arrogantly fools himself into thinking he can beat and abuse others, claiming some sort of seniority, because he was in a film about a gay man being stalked by another homosexual.

What I find equally astounding is the people that tolerate such madness from these stars, who do not make any valuable contribution to society. They corrupt your kids with the terrible examples they set and the deplorable entertainment they release into the marketplace.

They develop unjustifiable superiority complexes, though they are not scholars, scientists, physicists, biologists, astronauts or doctors, attempting to improve human life.

These are individuals employed to read and recite scripts a writer has authored and even that they flub on a regular basis.

Madonna, the psychotic public face of Kabbalah

Then, I view my case, where I have faced unspeakably wicked human rights abuses that nearly claimed my life, for simply existing and seeking to run my entertainment company, that some in Hollywood wish to rob and destroy.

Not content with their own earnings, they decided I was to be dehumanized, robbed, assaulted, bullied and exploited, for daring to start an entertainment company in their industry, even though I stayed out of Hollywood, basing it in Miami.

I have been subjected to stalking, harassment, hacking, illegal wiretapping and hidden cameras criminally placed in my home, paid for by Madonna and co. and conducted by a private investigator and Kabbalah miscreants working with him to violate my rights.

Through these terrible misdeeds, they've single-handedly repealed a few hundred years of social progress civil rights advocates fought very hard for over the years.

Once again, how does an industry about entertainment, justify such terrible aforementioned abuses that are completely criminal.

How does one begin to even explain to the public, why this sick, insidious, perverted breed of nastiness exists in society. The answer is you can't, as it is an abominable aberration that plumbs the abyss of abhorrent human conduct, too shameful to mention.

Most would be too ashamed and disgraced to do something so heinous, nasty and terrible, but not Hollywood. Clearly, anything goes in Hollywood, even if it violates the Civil Rights Act and privacy laws.

And this is the level of human depravity nasty Hollywood has sunk to, watching people in their homes and hotel rooms, in criminal violation of the law. How is this something to be proud of. It is depraved and denotes extreme sexual dysfunction and mental insanity.

Do not support these stars with your money, as look at the nastiness they are using it for, to spy, degrade and abuse innocent people.

Why are stars in Hollywood so full of lip, but when it's crunch time, they are cowardly, yellow bellied and craven.

This cowardice causes them to hire private investigators and thugs to menace, harass and assault others, over perceived slights and verbal offenses. That's commonly referred to as hiding behind others, as you are too much of a coward and weakling to cash the check your mouth just wrote.

Michael Berg, the psychotic head of Kabbalah

For instance, when I went to the courthouse this past Monday, to file this lawsuit in the Madonna case, I was followed by a member of Madonna's depraved Kabbalah cult, who was wearing a red string bracelet, signifying his membership into the sick group.

He was a menacing looking thug, whose clothes were dirty and his disposition surly. He approached the clerk's counter at the court, where I was standing, filling out a mandatory cover sheet for the lawsuit I was attempting to file and he began making strange statements.

The clerk grew visibly annoyed with him, demanding he clarify why he was even present in the courthouse. He is a felon and loudly kept making reference to his "indictment" from "1998" which could not be open still in 2009.

Perplexed, the clerk asked him two more times to clarify himself, as she did not understand why he was there or what he wanted. She asked for his name and he hesitantly stated "Alexis A. Palme" and spoke of his "indictment" again from 1998 again. He kept emphasizing "indictment" which means he's a criminal. She still didn't understand what he wanted.

He kept trying to read my lawsuit that I had placed on the clerk's counter to be filed. Then, he leaned over to me and started giving me these vile, angry stares.

Seeing as though I already had PMS, I gave him a mean look back and to draw attention to why he was really there, intimidation, I pointed at his Kabbalah red string bracelet and stated a question I already knew the answer to "What is that bracelet!" His neck snapped back and he started stuttering (Oh, the power of PMS).

I wanted him to say it out loud in front of the clerk and the other court employee present in the room, as he had no reason to be there, other than he had followed me into the courthouse on Kabbalah's instructions, to intimidate me into not filing the lawsuit concerning Madonna's misconduct, announcing himself repeatedly as someone with an "indictment" also known as a felon.

He, then stuttered a bit and started mumbling in response to my question, "Celebrities wear it for good luck" and I said "Kabbalah." Realizing I knew that he was trying to intimidate me, he asked the clerk for a photocopy that she couldn't even find, as what he was telling her made no sense. He left shortly after and I filed the lawsuit anyway.

And this ladies and gentlemen is Hollywood. An industry of thieves, perverts, crooks and liars, who aren't happy unless they are causing others misery, loss and grief.
