Consider the narrative posted describing Taryn Thoman's antics pertaining to the "No Place for Hate Committee". Taryn Thoman maintains a documented, established history of filing non-metorious law suits, crying foul when making specious and unfounded claims of abuse, neglects her child with impunity and expects remuneration and reward for negative behavior. Local news websites intially supported Taryn Thoman, under the assumption that she was a reputable, and reasonable business woman.
Unfortunately, Taryn Thoman has a history of failure. This track record is documented not only by her attention seeking, flamboyant departure from local committees, but spiteful and vindictive action caused by her failure at a number of political initiatives. Thoman's vengeful and malicious behavior was the end result of her inability to assume a position on the charter commission, failure to maintain proper demeanor during the Recall effort of Janet Swain Joakim, and refusal to take responsibility and consequences for her actions in the Barnstable District Court. The transcripts from the court hearing prepared to be posted will illuminate the issues confronting the candidates for Precinct Councilor in the village of Marstons Mills.
Hyannis News is surprised by this morning's heat directed at our site from a high ranking member of the No Place for Hate committee… especially since many individuals involved in the recent debate regarding local hate crimes have expressed a sincere desire to move forward on these issues in a constructive and positive way.
Hyannis News was shocked to receive this following email conversation from Hilary Greene, Committee Head, No Place for Hate special sub-committee for response to this hate crime.

Taryn Thoman found NOT Guilty
It wasn't that long ago that David Stiletto splashed these headlines across cover of his supermarket tabloid:
Recall organizer faces criminal harassment charges
Thoman to be arraigned Nov. 4
Written by David Stiletto IV
October 23, 2008
To set the record straight, Taryn Thoman was found NOT GUILT of trumpeted up criminal harassment charges on Friday.
According to Thoman's blog, accusers Ronald and Christine Howell encountered credibility problems in Barnstable District Court. Their frequent posts to the blog of former Town Council President Janet Joakim undermined their claims. Psycho-blogger Mary Clements haunted the proceedings at the Barnstable Court House. She hoped to be called as a witness and was apparently tossed from the building for "tampering."
From what I've been able to glean from the comments from various blogs, this trial was the biggest freak show that Barnstable has ever witnessed.
I'm told that the Barnstable police department sought to avoid this embarrassment of justice. But, State Representative Demetrius Atsalis allegedly intervened on behalf of his cousin by marriage, Janet Joakim. A hurried grand jury was convened at his request. Fellow blogger, Gary Lopez attended the grand jury proceedings and characterized them as a "kangaroo court." Charges were filed on the eve of Janet Joakim's recall.
Tabloid editor David Stiletto, a classmate of Atsalis at Barnstable High School, publicized the charges at the most inopportune time - days before the recall vote. He characterized Thoman as "the driving force behind the recall effort of Town Council President Joakim" and published a damaging list of accusations and innuendo to undermine Thoman's credibility.
It was an ugly moment in Barnstable politics.
Now that Thoman has been vindicated, I think it is time for Stiletto to set the record straight.
A public apology to Ms. Thoman is appropriate and long over due.
Taryn Thoman and Dennis Wilcox were as guilty as sin. Like the Cambridge Police Department, the apology is owed to Christine and Ron Howell, Detective Mark Delaney, Sergeant Sean Sweeney, and a number of young, capable District Attorneys.
Barack, figure out what your doing! Losing a police endorsement is a disaster, and puts you on political par with likes of Taryn Thoman and Dennis Wilcox!
Posted below is the Clerk Magistrates records of the events that lead to the Criminal Harassment Charge against her. You can see by the narrative posted below that Taryn Thoman is a lot of things. Unfortunately, bright is not one of them.
From the District Court:
0825AC300 THOMAN 9-19-08 (1A)
I called this matter a little after 4pm, no Atty had appeared. I informed Ms. THOMAN that the hearing would proceed with or without counsel-she indicated that Mr. Segadelli had some matters in other courts as well. The hearing began as the courtroom was cleared. All witnesses were sequestered. Sgt. Caido gave a brief overview of the case. A.D.A.E. Connor was also present. A full, complete and extensive hearing was held. Sometime during the hearing the A.D.A. received a call from Mr. Segadelli saying that he would not be coming. He said he had been in his office all afternoon and that although he had spoken to the defendant earlier in the day, he had not been retained.
Christine Howell was the first to testify and gave extensive testimony of various events from August 2008. She gave testimony of various events from August 2005 up till August 2008. She gave testimony about her experiences as well as her husband’s.

Officer Mark Delaney was next to testify. He talked about how he first got involved with the parties (neighbors) back in 2006. He also gave testimony about events he was involved in with the parties.
Based on his testimony and that of Ms. Howell I did not hear from Mr. Howell, believing that his testimony would be duplicitous at this point.
I then allowed Ms. THOMAN to present witnesses. Her first witness was her husband D. Wilcox. He was followed by his old boss, R. HAYES. Mr. Hayes had no direct knowledge of any of the issues before the court. Mr. LOPEZ was her final witness. He also didn’t have much to add other than he believed Ms. THOMAN was responsible for putting a video of Ms. Howell on U-Tube.
Ms.THOMAN was then given the opportunity to speak. At some point during the hearing, I did ask Ms. THOMAN if she was O.K. She said she was, although she would waive a large baggie full of apparent prescriptions in the air every once in a while. In a prior motion she had put forth

that she had immediate medical issues. I asked her several times about them and any doctor’s letters she might have, but she failed to produce anything.
I also asked her if she was on any medication today which would cloud her thinking. She said “no!” I asked her if she was under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs today and she said “No!”
I believe that Ms. THOMAN was a competent witness and I allowed her to continue her testimony.
At the conclusion of all the testimony, about 21/2 hours after it began I was given some additional papers from both Ms. THOMAN and Ms. Howell.
I took all the paperwork and my copius notes along with the file. This matter is “Under Advisement.”
It's alright fellas, in Barnstable, we are accustomed to parties crying racism, and playing the system. Lastly, there is a post of a puppet of law enforcement, to celebrate Taryn, savvy player of the police department, who would easily get away with murder if you let her!
My apologies to the Cambridge Police Department. There is a problem with the blue wall kissing the ass of local national political figures here in Barnstable, and we are handling it. The next time, this image will be a "voodoo doll" with a pin in the unit for every sex offender placed onto the street by men and women, Barnstable's Finest that get paid to know better.
Perry and Marvin say, "Hang loose Cambridge PD! We know you just got played by the Obama Administration! Taryn Thoman and Eric Schwaab were two of your biggest supporters! Right up their with the brilliant Kennedy clan!
PS. If you think we are lower than the low, wait until you meet Thoman!
