The events documented herein began on April 20, 2008, during what all parties initially described as a recreational trip to Boulder, Colorado.
This description is no longer considered reliable.
The principal subject believed he had found the woman of his dreams.
His three lifelong associates believed he had entered into a hostile romantic arrangement and required immediate extraction.
No licensed professional was consulted.
Instead, the associates initiated a privately governed intervention under the authority of the Angry Hippie Syndicate, a self-appointed organization operating beneath the broader jurisdiction of the Community of Unruly Pacifists. The legal standing of either body remains highly questionable. Their confidence does not.
Subsequent actions included—but were not limited to—fabricated constitutional provisions, unauthorized behavioral classifications, cult activity, improvised courtroom proceedings, police involvement, involuntary mythology, controlled substances, uncontrolled substances, administrative retaliation, and repeated attempts to convert coincidence into admissible evidence.
Each effort to expose Verity Djävulen made the associates appear less credible.
Each effort by the subject to defend her made intervention appear more necessary.
As the matter escalated, friendship became procedure, procedure became doctrine, and doctrine acquired enough supporting paperwork to survive casual scrutiny.
The reporting party maintains his friends nearly destroyed his future.
His friends maintain they prevented it.
Available evidence has been reviewed, mishandled, reclassified, misplaced, rediscovered, and interpreted according to personal need.
No consensus was reached.
No lesson was learned.
Further involvement is strongly discouraged.
Further reading is inevitable.
Unauthorized conclusions are encouraged.
