Howe, Old Hill Partners, Inc., Patriot Group LLC ,Darien, Connecticut. Video Press Release : John C. Howe, Old Hill Partners, Inc., Patriot Group LLC ,Darien, Connecticut. Whistleblowers International (WBI) has announced that it is under attack by alleged tax cheat John C. Howe and Old Hill Partners for WBIs reporting about ongoing investigations into Mr. Howes alleged tax fraud and securities law violations, including the siphoning of private investor funds for Mr. Howes personal benefit. Mr. Howe is a resident of Westport, Connecticut. WBI asserts that Mr. Howe has taken actions to threaten and intimidate several U.S. media outlets, forcing them to remove WBIs blogs, press releases and other content pertaining to Mr. Howes alleged frauds. The background involved two separate and independent whistleblowers who have come forward against Mr. Howe, Old Hill Partners, and other individuals and entities affiliated with Mr. Howe. WBI has previously reported on the first whistleblower, an American, who has accused Mr. Howe, Old Hill Partners and other entities of committing U.S. tax and securities fraud. The whistleblower filed claims with the IRS and SEC against Mr. Howe, Old Hill Partners and their related funds. That same whistleblower has also accused Mr. Howe of retaliating against him by forcing the whistleblower into bankruptcy and harassing and intimidating him and his family inside the U.S. Bankruptcy Court. Recently, a second whistleblower contacted WBI and announced that he is preparing whistleblower filings against Mr. Howe, several former and present officers and employees of Mr. Howes companies, and others. The second whistleblower alleges that Mr. Howe and his colleagues and affiliates committed U.S. tax fraud, siphoned investor funds for Mr. Howes personal benefit, and overcharged those same investors exorbitant management fees. WBI has published the results of its investigations into the two whistleblower cases with a series of press releases that were distributed to the mass media, and several articles posted to WBIs U.S. blog site including, John C. Howe, Westport, Ct. Hedge Fund Executive Investigated for Tax Fraud and SEC Violations [LINK], Alleged Tax Cheat John C. Howe Bullies Whistleblower in Bostons U.S. Bankruptcy Court [LINK], and Second Whistleblower Comes Forward Against Westports John C. Howe and Old Hill Partners. [LINK]. On or about October 15, 2014, several e-media organizations contacted WBI and informed it that they were removing WBIs blogs and press releases from their web sites, based on threats they had received from a representative of Mr. Howe. Mr. Howes representative took actions to discredit WBI by informing the media organizations that WBIs press releases contained false and libelous statements about Mr. Howe and Old Hill Partners. One media outlet told WBI that Mr. Howes representative threatened them with litigation if they did not immediate remove from their web site all WBI press releases referencing Mr. Howe and Old Hill Partners, regardless of whether they were true. WBI also discovered that Mr. Howes representative made similar threatening statements to the U.S. web company that hosts WBIs blogs and articles for WBIs U.S. clientele. Under threat of litigation, the U.S. web company temporarily shut down WBIs blog site causing a delay in service for WBI customers and bloggers. WBIs Ann Shoutzer notes: Mr. Howes actions are illegal and clearly demonstrate his desperate desire to harass, intimidate and quiet the media for distributing the truth about his alleged fraudulent activities. Says media consultant Eleanor Krautz, Mr. Howe is using a classic technique of deflection that is used in political smear campaigns. Attack the messenger so that public will ignore the message. Erik Nordenberg, a E.U. legal correspondent for WBI further states: I am appalled that this type of censorship can occur in todays Internet within a free Western society. Mr. Howe has bullied one whistleblower in U.S. Bankruptcy Court. Now he thinks he can do the same to WBI. But Mr. Howe has another thing coming, says WBIs John Stratenberg. WBI has take immediate action to move its U.S. blog to its operations outside of the United States. The move allows us to continue to service our U.S. customers out of reach and attack by Howe and his attorneys, says Stratenberg. Continues Stratenberg We are also exploring possible legal action against Mr. Howe and his agents. Through his threats and intimidation, Mr. Howe has tortuously interfered with WBIs relationships with media outlets and damaged WBIs reputation. WBI has reissued its recent blogs, press releases and articles to a larger volume of media outlets. _______ FOLLOW LIPSapp Hits56 Radio _______ FB: r-js/1rlggeQ / TW: r-js/1us3SdS / Listen to LIPSapp Hits56 Radio r-js/1dOIQ18 #thewho #beatles #elvis #jimihendrix #dylan
