MARK HALBURN FLEES THE STATE!!

FAT BASTARD THROWS IN THE TOWEL
Leavin’ or Lyin’?

Here’s some good news to start the year.

After a devastating 2017, where he was jailed twice and lost all visitation with his son until at least May 2019, by the end of the year Mark Vance Halburn was reduced to dumpster diving for cans and begging for cash on Gofundme.

Broke and defeated, Halburn announced today he’s leaving town and moving to South Carolina.

Whether or not it actually happens is anyone’s guess. It would be just like Halburn to say something like this in order to dodge a summons or a warrant.

Some say he’s leeching off his sugar mama Barbara and her elderly parents, living at their house in Raleigh, NORTH Carolina.

Halburn claims one of his FB friends says his church will get him a job and a place to live. Perfect for him. Someone else does the work of finding him a job. Wait until he gets hired and starts his shit.

Certainly a better economy in terms of jobs, but with his history, he can’t hold down a job, so he’ll never have anything more than what he has here.
He’s never going to be executive material, no matter how far he runs.
Hotel desk worker. This “merchandising” thing. Retail. That’s about it.
A 56 year old guy with no savings, no retirement and no prospects still has a long time to work.
And a future living the rest of his life in a dirtneck shit trailer park.

Unfortunately for him the water slide at Heritage USA has been shut down for years. He’ll have to find someplace else to harass about their pool.

On December 16,2017, the bum was so desperate to get some money that he started a Gofundme campaign to scam money from suckers.

Apparently the unsecure office space is his one bedroom garage apartment in Dunbar and whatever fast food place he can leech wifi from.

It appears though, that $100 he raised was enough to get him gas money to get out of town.

Strangely enough, Halburn has never posted a link to the Gofundme campaign on his hate blog, his personal Facebook page or the two other FB pages he uses to pimp his blog. He’s not going to raise much money that way. Maybe he doesn’t want everyone to know that the so-called successful businessman is a dismal failure.

Halburn has tried relocating twice before. Once in 2007, where he lasted 4 months at a TV station in Conway SC before being fired and returning to WV, and again in 2012 when his second ex-wife threw him out of her house and divorced him. He lasted 7 months that time, while living in a trailer in Galivants Ferry SC and working at a Myrtle Beach pier.
Don’t look for this attempt to last any longer. He’ll fail this time just as he has his entire life.

Down The Memory Hole II

Sunday, Mark Vance Halburn’s hate blog disappeared. Not completely though. All the pages have been replaced with a placeholder that says,
“Please Be Patient
Site under Maintenance”

It probably should read,
“Please Be Patient
Publisher in Jail”

He has obviously gotten one of his associates, or more likely his sugar mama Barbara, to turn off all access to his fake news blog.
Shortly after that, his personal Facebook page and both of the Facebook pages that he uses to pimp his blog were disabled as well.
The most likely explanation for this is that there was some content on there that violated the family court order that he is currently in jail for violating and he’s hoping that will help get him out.
Halburn can be held indefinitely until he complies with the order. In the past, he was ordered not to discuss the case on his blog or social media. This seem to point to something similar.

Sugar mama Barbara is out collecting checks from “advertisers” while Halburn  is in jail. Do you think she’s telling them that their ads aren’t being seen?

UPDATE:
Less than 5 hours after he was released from jail, he reactivated his personal Facebook page. Shortly after that, his fake news hate blog reappeared.  The blog had been scrubbed of any banned references, save one, which was removed in the overnight hours. His personal FB page, however, still has numerous, numerous, numerous pictures of his second ex-wife as well as screencaps of text messages, etc.

 

Substantial Penalty For Early Withdrawal

Last weekend PutnamLIES.com saw several postings on the internet trailer park, Topix, all having to do with Mark Halburn and City National Bank.

Here’s one of them:
“Hey Halburn, why did City National cancel all of your bank accounts? Were you overdrafting too much? Did it hurt your feelings when they laughed at you when you said you were getting an attorney? They know you can’t afford an attorney and they know that no attorney would take your case even if you could. It’s not worth it. So you are in your mid 50’s and not only do you not have a retirement but you also do not have a checking account.
Yeah you are a great example for the kid. I guess Donnie can show him how to open a savings account.”

Those posts were pretty much proven to be true today when Halburn went to the City National Bank branch on Poplar Fork in Teays Valley and started raising hell and screaming at the employees. So much so that they hit the hold up alarm. Halburn was still there when the Putnam County deputies arrived and he was told in no uncertain terms not to come back or he would be arrested for trespassing.

Guess that failing hate blog and his sub-minimum wage income aren’t working out too well for him.

Truckin’

 Halburn Can’t Get New Peterbilt

When Mark Halburn left this comment on Travel Centers-TA-Petro’s Facebook page this morning PutnamLIES.com  knew something was up.

The explanation shows up a few hours later.
He turned down a job because they couldn’t accommodate HIS schedule. But as usual, he blames THEM.
It’s always someone else’s fault isn’t it Halburn?

Or maybe since the openings they have are for cooks, servers, truck service advisers and mechanics, he’s just not qualified for a job there.

Maybe they checked him out and then turned him down. All his arrests, the restraining orders against him, his mental evaluation, his harassment of people in the community, the abuse of his second ex-wife. Those follow him around like the stench of his filthy tee shirts and cut off sweat pants.

This has to be a first for Halburn.
Fired from a job before he was even hired.

You got to be a stupid motherfucker to get fired before you’re even hired!

Here’s how it works. They are hiring for certain shifts. If your availability doesn’t meet their needs, you’re not a good choice.
There are many reasons why Crisco is not a good choice, but we will start with this reason.

What sort of a “man” who has no job, who makes less than minimum wage and has had to have his child support reduced at least THREE times because he can’t afford to pay it, turns down a job because they wouldn’t let him work the schedule HE wanted to work? Everyone misses time with their family because of work.
Do you actually believe a business should work around your personal schedule, Halburn?

They offered you a job, then you told them you can only work every other weekend and no Wednesday evenings.
What did you think they were going to do? Jump for joy and say “Sure Mr Halburn. You’re the Dad of the Year. Work whatever schedule you want to work. The world revolves around you.”
Skilless grifters are a dime a dozen. Hell, crack whores and heroin addicts have a better skill set and work ethic than you do. TA doesn’t need you.
It’s not discrimination when a potential employee tries to tell an employer when he’s going to work.

That’s not how you go about getting a job. Something you’re oblivious of since you’re 55 years old, have held about 100 menial jobs and been fired from most of them.
A real father does whatever it takes to provide for his child.
You don’t care if your son eats or not. But Doedy and Donnie will be sure he has food to eat. They will raise him right. It’s good that he has a real, positive male role model in his home now. Someone who treats his mommy right, works a steady job and doesn’t leech off his wife. Now he has a real man to look up to.

Halburn doesn’t care about the kid and never has. It’s all about him and him getting his way. Handouts Halburn! Piece of shit.
You’re a bum Halburn.
And a horrible example to your “son.”

55 years old and the only thing you have to show for in your life is a blog, a 16 year old car and a son another man takes care of. You’re a huge loser at life.

REAL parents have to make the tough choice to go to work to provide for their children. YOU, on the other hand, just want to whine about it and let your second ex-wife and her husband actually support and raise their son.
Stepdads step up when Dads step down.

And days later he’s still whining about it.

A normal person would move on and apply for another job somewhere else.
But we’re talking about Mark Vance Halburn here.

Halburn Fails Another Job Interview

Fat Loser Loses Again

Interviews were held this evening for the Dave Hardy’s vacant seat on the Kanawha County Commission and PutnamLIES.com was there in the audience.
9 qualified applicants and Mark Halburn were interviewed for the position.

This was the extent of his interview.

Lardass slouches in his seat while being  questioned by Kent Carper.

Carper: I’ll be honest. I was surprised you applied for this. How in the world could you get along with the Kanawha County Sheriff’s Department, the circuit court, the family court, or for that matter anybody else?

Halburn:  You can contact Sheriff Deweese of Putnam County who I deal with on a regular basis.

Carper: We’re not in Putnam County.

Carper: What’s your relationship with the Circuit Court of Kanawha County? Is it good or bad?

Halburn:  I haven’t talked to them in years so you could ask them that.

Carper: Didn’t they file an order so you can’t file anymore lawsuits here?

Halburn:  No, they did not.

Carper: You have a good relationship with the court here?

Halburn:  As far as I can tell.

And then Kent wraps up with this after Halburn mentions his divorce:
“If we were going to get into personal stuff it wouldn’t be about that.”

Our takeaways:

Typical Halburn, skirting the truth. ALWAYS with the semantics and half truths. There WAS an order filed against Halburn in 2014 from filing any actions without a lawyer, but still allowed pleadings filed by a lawyer on his behalf to be filed.

Carper never followed up.

Carper should have asked about Halburn’s relationship with the family court. That would have been a revealing answer. Virtually every judge in the county have recused themselves because they don’t want to deal with Halburn.

Halburn should just go ahead and marry Steve Deweese. They would probably be very happy together. It’s like a teenage suckfest with those two.

Then, Halburn had to sit there while Judge Tod Kaufman, the only judge in WV to ever hold him responsible for a crime, stood directly in front of him and spoke after he swore in the new Commissioner, Ben Salango.

If it is at all possible, Kent Carper may be the only person who loves the sound of his voice and pats himself on the back more than Mark Halburn does.

Obamaphones

Loser Hands Out Phones to Other Losers

 

Looks like the reason Mark Halburn is pimping Obamaphones on his shitty little blog and Facebook is that he’s actually peddling them beside the road somewhere in the area.
He wasn seen yesterday on D Street in South Charleston handing out Obamaphones.
How appropriate.

Now he will be bragging,
“I manage my own telecommunications business.”

He is so desperate for business, he even posts on his blog:
“If you don’t have transportation or are a shut-in, a Tempo rep can come to you.
(I am) working with a Tempo agent to help spread the word. Tempo reps are at different locations, each day, so telephone (me) and we will let you know where you can get your free phone!”

Bonus points to the first reader who sends PutnamLIES.com a pic of him at his little sales stand.
Double secret bonus points if you sign up, harass the shit of him while doing it and video it..

No Adoptions For Old Assholes

 

YOU weren’t able to birth anything, fatsack. Your second ex-wife did all the work. Just like she’s doing now.
The only thing you were was a sperm donor.

And there’s a reason the DHHR wouldn’t let you adopt:
YOU.

As the WV Supreme Court wrote:
“The family court order noted that the Husband’s and Wife’s application to become foster parents was denied because of the Husband’s behavior”

DENIED!

In his ongoing battle to be recognized as a legitimate journalist, Mark Vance Halburn has been soundly rejected again by West Virginia State University.

At least there’s one government office that has the balls to tell him no.

 

Not a bonafide news service? Has she not seen his headset?
Many times it is easier to get press credentials with a title of ‘blogger’ or ‘podcaster’ than that of journalist, of course it helps if you’re not an asshole too.    
 
I’m sure he has already located Ms. Osborne’s home address and is in the process of  harassing  her unmercifully.

PutnamLIES.com thanks WV State University for the continuing access they have granted to us.

Halburn Planning Name Change For His Hate Blog

Blobby Blogger Gets Scooped On Own Announcement

In a desperate attempt to remain relevant and run away from his toxic brand, Mark Halburn will be changing the name and domain of his blog. The new name will be Putnam County News and Putnumcountynews. com will be the new URL. The site was registered on December 27, 2015. It’s unsure when the changeover will actually take place.
He doesn’t seen to understand that changing the name is not going to make people forget. His past is not going to be erased that easily.

One of the reasons for the change? He now gets to use News in the name. So now he can harass people under a new name and continue to insist “IT’S NOT A BLOG!”

The other reason? Through our efforts, his blog and its name were so damaged, so poisoned, so associated with his harassing, bullying tactics that he was forced to change the name.
And in typical style he made a new shitty logo with some copied clipart. Appropriate that he chose his notebook computer as one of the pieces of clipart..

PutnamLIES.com just scooped him on his own announcement. News leader my ass.

Same old shit, new name.
You can’t polish a turd. All you can do is put a bow on it.

As we always said, we would be here one day longer than putnumlive. com, and that pledge has been fulfilled.
The same thing applies to his new name. One day longer.

Halburn Loses Before Supreme Court Again

The big fat loser loses again.

That’s right, Halburn. We’re laughing at you again, bitch!

Halburn’s parenting plan will not be modified.

He will have to pay $1000 in sanctions to the Family court for filing frivolous motions.

Halburn wanted permanent custody of his child or substantially more visitation and the freedom to take the kid out of state. The child’s mother wanted Halburn’s visitation restricted to supervised visitation.

He lost.
Again.

CUSTODY

The Court wrote:

“In their original 2013 order The Court affirmed the family court’s order directing Halburn not to take the child from the State of West Virginia..The Court noted petitioner’s diagnosis of personality disorder and determined that the family court properly “recognized and emphasized that there exists potential for grave harm to this child” when he is in Halburn’s care given petitioner’s “confirmed propensity for interpersonal conflict.”

“A court shall modify a parenting plan order if it finds, on the basis of facts that were not known or have arisen since the entry of the prior order and were not anticipated therein, that a substantial change has occurred in the circumstances of the child or of one or both parents and a modification is necessary to serve the best interests of the child.”

“To show that such a substantial change in circumstances occurred—i.e., Halburn is now better able to control his personality disorder and resulting behavior— Halburn presented the testimony of two witnesses. Both witnesses admitted that the information they had about the parties’ case and Halburn’s conduct came solely from Halburn, which the family court found diminished their credibility. As the family court noted, Halburn’s psychologist “specifically declined to give any recommendation regarding the expansion of Halburn’s time with his son.”

They didn’t believe Halburn or his witnesseses.
NO modification of visitation or custody

SANCTIONS

The family court found that “Halburn has clogged the courts with frivolous, harassing, offensive and impossible demands and has exhibited little to no self-control. He has made a number of impossible-to-achieve and nonsensical requests and demands of the Family Court and this Court during the course of these proceedings.”

The family court  sanctioned Halburn on two prior occasions. He was sanctioned $250 for the first incident and $500 for the second incident. He kept on filing motions.
After he filed a tenth disqualification motion that was denied, the family court sanctioned him in the amount of $1,000.

The Supreme Court determined that the family court implemented a graduated scale for sanctioning Halburn. They found that to be proper and concluded that the family court did not abuse its discretion in sanctioning Halburn in the amount of $1,000.

Pay up motherfucker.

The DYING GRANDMOTHER

Halburn complains that the family court improperly restricted his examination of his witnesses by preventing him from asking questions that contradicted statements made in an email Halburn sent in 2012.

Halburn lies that the email either never existed or was fabricated.

The family court ruled at the hearing that the fact that the email DID exist and contradicted the basis for certain of petitioner’s questions.

Fatboy loves to whine that the judge somehow kept his son from seeing his grandmother. He conveniently ignores his words from that email that the court quoted in the final divorce order.

He told his self serving side of the story on his blog. Read the real story from the WV Supreme Court’s memo.

“However, the day prior to filing his emergency motion, Mr. Halburn emailed his wife that “My mom is too far gone for (the son) to visit her now. She is incoherent and might scare him. Unless something changes we have missed the wonderful opportunity for him to see his grandmother and for her to enjoy him.”

The Court concluded that during the December 18, 2014, hearing, the family court properly prevented Halburn from asking questions that contradicted statements made in the 2012 email.
