Unfortunately we had to ban someone that beats up cars today
As a pillar of free speech and whatnot we hate to do this but 0leVonBizzarro/Blondie was making online and telephone threats and needs some psychiatric help that we don't have the time or inclination to indulge him with.
He's a well known mentalist that has been trying to cause trouble at various websites for the past few years as well as as having federal conviction.
As ever here we try out best to never edit or ban people but we also have a moral duty of care to protect the people that post here.
His real name is Edward Przydzial and is a classic example of the old adage that by the time you reach your 40s you get the face you deserve.
Here is an extract from a newspaper from when he used to live in Detroit.
Quote:
Detroit News, April 25, 1988
Did fan step over edge from fantasy to fraud?
Fantasy figures with nightmare faces leapt and writhed on stage behind a tall young man who stood below, throwing paper scraps into the smoky air above the audience.
On each piece was drawn a pair of lips, a Detroit telephone number and the name Ed Przydzial. The thin youth, in the last of his teen-age years, was slavishly devoted to the rock-and-roll band Kiss, which was performing on the stage behind him in Cobo Hall.
He was soliciting amateur photographs of the group. That was early 1983.
Today, Przydzial, 24, sits in the federal prison at Milan under grand jury indictment for multiple counts of fraud and interstate transportation of property obtained by fraud. The indictment describes a scheme that is virtually the first of its kind, at least in scope, for a little-known industry that operates largely on trust and good faith.
Edward Bernard Przydzial -- pronounced Prisdale -- is accused of posing as an editor of rock industry publications to trick professional photographers and photo stock houses in the United States and England into sending him original pictures of rock bands and musicians.
Investigators said they seized nearly 2,400 photos from Przydzial as evidence for the indictment. Later seizures raised the total to about 6,000, but investigators have not yet determined which of those are amateur snapshots -- such as those taken by fans in the audience at that 1983 concert -- and which are marketable, professional photos.
An industry standard sets the replacement value of the commercial photos at $1,500 each. By that measure, which Przydzial's lawyer intends to challenge in court, the seized photos are worth $3.6 mullion -- and perhaps millions more.
Federal authorities say it was Przydzial's intent to sell the photos as his own work. They do not, however, know if he ever did so.
They charge that he used aliases while running the scheme, among them the name "Mark Dallas."
One of those he is accused of victimizing, a New York photographer who tried to do business with him under the Dallas alias, offers another possible motive.
While the charges are serious and the photo industry is intent on seeing them prosecuted to conclusion, "I feel sorry for this person named Mark Dallas," says Raeanne Rubenstein, owner of Telephoto, a New York photo stock house. Her complaint started the federal investigation that ended in Przydzial's indictment.
"Obviously his fan dom took him over the edge."
***
Przydzial's family refuses to talk about him, other than to say he grew up in the Brightmoor area on the west side of Detroit, attended a Catholic grade school and Redford High School, and worked sometimes as a free-lance photographer. Federal officials familiar with the case say they have been unable to determine if he was ever gainfully employed.
Przydzial's Attorney refuses to allow her client to be interviewed.
But other people have had contact with him.
"I just think he was a fan and I just think he was obsessed," says Ginay Cartmell, forrmer associate art director for the rock magazine Creem, which moved from its Metro Detroit offices to Los Angeles early last year. Cartmell remembers Przydzial in the early '80s, when he regularly called the magazine asking for photos of Kiss.
The Quartet, then at the peak of its popularity, performed wearing Kabuki-like face paint and affecting the roles of a reptilian demon, an androgynous lover, a space ace, and a cat. Their act was a loud, high-tech replay of the French Grand Guignoll full of such shock theatrics as fire-breathing and spitting streams of fake blood. They held a deep attraction for teen-agers.
At the time Cartmell dealt with Przydzial -- during which she says he used as many as four different aliases in trying to obtain pictures of Kiss -- he was about 16.
"My answer to him was that we bought one-time use of photos and we didn't keep any files," Cartmell says. "A lot of people are under the impression that magazines have huge files of different groups. But unless you have staff photographers, which Creem did not, you do not own the photos outright.
"I think he was real aggravated because we wouldn't give him photos."
The frustration led to threats against the magazine, says Dave DiMartino, former managing editor.
"At Creem, we referred to him as The Kiss Guy," DiMartino says of Przydzial. "As far as we knew, he was the world's biggest Kiss fan and wanted to amass as much materials about them as possible." During one telephone conversation, which DiMartino recorded, a caller who DiMartino identifies as Przydzial said:
"We're gonna be harassing you people like you never dreamed. You already know that I know more people that you thought I knew, because you've contacted a lot of my deals, my business deals, and screwed them up for me... You talked to people that we work with, that we were trying to work, you know, business deals out with, such as photographers."
DiMartino says that the call was one of dozens that ended only after Creem editors complained to the police, who warned Przydzial to stop.
After that, DiMartino did not hear much about Przydzial until the federal fraud charges against him were announced last month.
Following up on the complaint from Rubenstein, in New York, the FBI interviewed numerous photographers and photo agency employees who said they had been victimized by a young man in Detroit.
In several cases, investigators said, photographs were sent to a Mark Dallas, who represented himself on the telephone as an editor or researcher for Creem.
"He contacted us by telephone," says Jesse Morales, a salesman for Globe Photo in New York, which is named as one of the victims in the Przydzial indictment. "The first contact was made on Feb. 19, 1987. He asked for (photos of) The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Kiss, everybody and anybody. He would give me specific names and I would send him a selection on each name.
"All communications were through the phone. A woman would always answer the phone 'Creem Magazine,' and 'Let me connect you with Mark Dallas,' making it seem it was the actual magazine. The secretary used the name Lisa."
By necessity, Moales says, photo stock houses such as Globe Photo operate on trust. Client magazines ask for pictures on a given topic or subject. A selection is sent to them with the understanding that they will be returned undamaged within a set amount of time. And if the client decides to publish one of the photos from the selection, a fee is paid to use it once.
Rights to print a specific photograph might be sold dozens of times to many different publications. For that reason, Morales says, the industry has set a standard $1,500 value for commercial-quality pictures that are lost or stolen.
Morales says he sent some 500 photos to Mark Dallas and has not seen them since.
By the time FBI agents had interviewed Morales and numerous others with similar experiences, served search warrants on a Detroit address used by Przydzial, and confiscated phone records and other documents which they say prove that he and Mark Dallas are one and the same person, they went looking for their suspect to make an arrest.
They found him several weeks ago. He was a prisoner in Wayne County Jail.
***
Last Dec. 18, police said, a Sterling Heights couple reported that their 20-year-old daughter Elizabeth -- nicknamed Lisa -- and her infant daughter had disappeared that day with Lisa's estranged husband, Ed Przydzial.
Three days later, police forced open the back door of a house in Harper Woods that Przydzial shared with his grandmother, Adoline Hartley. They found Lisa standing in a bedroom with Hartley, who was holding the child, Brittany.
When they entered an adjacent [line blurred by a fax error] aged wraith -- shirtless, barefoot, tall and very thin, arms hanging limp at his sides. Blood seeped from cuts on each wrist. Black hair fell straight from his head to the midline of his back.
For a moment, Ed Przydzial faced the police, the palms of his hands turned forward to display his wounds. Then he walked to his bed, picked up the blade he had dropped there and lay on his back.
He threatened more damage, but was persuaded against it. He was taken to a hospital and later to jail, accused of kidnapping his wife and daughter.
Before the officers left the house, [line blurred by a fax error] room. His bed sheets were splashed scarlet. The walls were covered by posters of the rock group Kiss.
As the officers worked, the fantasy faces on the walls stared down and waggled their tongues from painted faces.
He has also in the past threatened other people that provide free rock music websites such as www.dlrarmy.com and www.metalsludge.com.
All in all he seems to have some 'issues'. Sometimes it's tough being an ugly talentless duckling I guess.
He registered with the email address was cardudeontheweb@hotmail.com and his is IP 24.126.87.77.
Cheers!
