It was revealed by reporter Grant Smith Ellis and confirmed by Aidan “Turtleboy” Kearney Thursday night that Kearney’s attorney had accidentally received copies of the contents of Lindsey Gaetani’s phone in the discovery process, which he had then distributed to Kearney.
Kearney posted an e-mail exchange between special prosecutor Kenneth Mello and Kearney’s attorney Tim Bradl in which Mello asked for the return of the drive containing the information. Instead, Bradl insulted Mello and indicated that he had no intention of returning the information even though it was improperly given to the defense.
In a statement on his Turtleboy Live YouTube broadcast Thursday night, Kearney confirmed that he was in possession of the information and would be using it in his defense to fight the protection order Gaetani has previously been granted.
Kearney alleged that the information presented on the drive indicated a vast conspiracy existed between the prosecution and Gaetani in order to set up Kearney for prosecution. Strangely, he also claimed that his contacts within the Holden, Massachusetts, police department tipped him off on the “be on the lookout” order filed in December for the blogger after Gaetani made a police report following an alleged assault by Kearney.
There has been no confirmation of allegations made by Grant Smith Ellis that there is evidence that Kearney has already attempted to access Gaetani’s personal accounts from passwords contained in the data dump.
Both Kearney and Gaetani are expected in court later today for a scheduled hearing in Kearney’s attempt to have Gaetani’s protection order overturned.
