In this letter (Document #150-1), sent from the Federal Transfer Center in Oklahoma City and featuring an Oklahoma postmark but bearing a Seminole, Florida return address (because Luke Wenke seems to think he’s slick), Luke Wenke implies that he suspects me of calling Child Protective Services on his mother and trying to sabotage her restaurant with negative online reviews.
I didn’t write fake reviews about Luke Wenke’s mother’s restaurant.
Luke Wenke has a known, documented history of doing just that. He’s threatened it in his social media posts and mentioned it in his letters to the court. Here’s just one example from September 2023:
Luke Wenke’s penchant for writing false reviews is also discussed in his criminal complaint (Document #1, Page 6):
I, on the other hand, do not have a known or documented history of writing false reviews about businesses. I never wrote a review about Wenke’s mother’s restaurant.
I also didn’t call CPS on Luke Wenke’s mom.
Wenke seems to care more about smearing people than he does about the truth, so he’s going to say what he wants. And he’ll likely omit his own history of contemplating doing the exact thing he’s accusing me of. Here’s a Telegram conversation between Luke Wenke and myself from weeks before his arrest in early 2022:
As you can see, I don’t believe in misusing resources, especially those that are limited and meant for helping people in dire situations (especially children).
Many years ago, I lived next door to a man who I suspected of beating his young son. After days of trying unsuccessfully to reach CPS over the phone, I called the police because I was unwilling to wait any longer to speak with the agency. I’m glad I had that option, but I strongly believe the situation should’ve been handled by someone whose job revolves specifically around these types of cases.
CPS workers are backlogged and overwhelmed to begin with. If you’ve ever clogged up the CPS caseload by purposely reporting someone who isn’t abusing their kid just to cause problems for that person, you are an absolute scumbag. Because while your BS report is being investigated, a kid who urgently needs help could be falling through the cracks.
I despise Luke Wenke and I’m not a huge fan of the Foot Soldier, but I have no reason to report her to CPS. No reason to believe she’s being a bad parent to her minor child. I therefore did not, and would not, contact the agency about her.
If that even really happened, it wasn’t me and I have absolutely no clue who it might have been. And if it was done out of spite rather than genuine concern, it was a very wrong and grimy thing to do.

“It is 9/3/2024 as I send this out from this Grady County, Oklahoma facility with a Florida return address. Frank’s 2 week vacation should be over by now.
The Buffalo Federal Public Defender’s Office is not reachable by phone call over normal circumstances from this facility. Even at CCA in Youngstown, OH, 716-551-3341 is free to call. Not from this Oklahoma facility, however. I am not going to use commissary money to call them because Frank doesn’t answer the phone anyways. I’m not paying to leave a bunch of voicemails into the void. This is a dangerous precedent to allow an unsentenced defendant to be thrown thousands of miles away from home without a practical way to contact their attorney in case of an emergency.
This court is aware of the malicious Google and Yelp reviews against my mother and Jeff Bish’s Salamanca restaurant, and this court is aware of the phone call between Katie and an Orleans County Jail inmate. Is this court aware of the recent CPS attack against my mother Janet McCaul and Jeff Bish over my 10 year old brother [redacted] (who absolutely remembers Katie)? The CPS findings came out in favor of my mother and Jeff, but there are already conflicts of interest written out on paper they plan suing over. Only the most malicious of those involved with this case would know if anyone associated with this case was directly involved in inciting CPS to go after them. Perhaps an emotional distress check winds up being given to my mother after her own inevitable attorney I anticipate her to hire looks into these things?
Everyone can face the music and admit that I was right over the fact that courts defined as ‘inferior’ by the Constitution have no say in what the U.S. Bureau of Prisons does with someone in their custody, nor can they accept an unsentenced defendant who is more than 500 miles from home at that. Never mind the fact that I am past that 9 month mark on the sentencing guidelines. Whatever pompous Harvard Ivy League douchebag yacht party language you people need to use next time we all see each other in court to legally explain what I just put down in writing, go ahead and repeat what I’ve been saying since April in Latin for all I give a shit.”

“No I am not your lab rat for meds so the answer really just became ‘no’ for meds. I will Plead the Fifth and use my right to remain silent if another psychiatrist comes my way, and I will do the same if I am asked to testify in court with Ryan, Brett, or Katie present. Dragging this on and on is to remember the old adage ‘treat others how you want to be treated’ in terms of somebody’s relatives who are allegedly in jail due to drugs and sex trafficking according to Waleed Abughanem. I am convinced that no matter what, someone sitting in my position is bound to be ‘diagnosed’ with something and anything, so even Dr. Rutter’s July 2023 diagnosis just became invalid and disputable in my book given how the following year went afterwards. Thankfully Obama/Biden got federal medical centers closed.
Probation only exists so courts can arrogantly shove you back into jail and complete paperwork on you they forget to finish before the initial guilty conviction. Go debate that claim. Put it all on probation. They suck.
I would like an absentee early voting ballot, please and thank you. I know what I read on the papers I signed at CCA about what U.S. Marshals do according to state election laws. I prefer to vote at the polling place by my house in Olean, but [probation officer]’s pile of shit supervisor might call me a ‘public safety threat’ if I’m seen out in public as I was undisturbed for 29 years. Frank Passafiume told me behind closed doors that everyone is trying to figure out how to have that guy’s job removed from future federal budgets. I worked the polls in 2017. Check the Cattaraugus County Board of Elections for verification. ‘Incompetent’ nursing home residents addicted to meds get to vote, but relatives of federal judges incarcerated for selling meth can’t vote? Inferior courts can’t do anything about anything, can they?
You all know what Frank said to me at the end of January which I’ve been saying on the phone I also remember hearing July 30th in court the word ‘waive’. Are we there yet? It’s September now. Maybe my mother hires Barry Covert to sue CPS for emotional distress. Maybe that helps get this moving. Maybe I’m moved to a U.S. Marshals facility in Alaska next. Nothing but Jerry Springer tv re-runs and bologna and mustard every single day at this Oklahoma facility. That’s what this case is as a matter of fact, Jerry Springer bologna. Maybe I’ll call into Larry Sharpe’s show next, blurt out everyone’s name involved in this case and their addresses, and we’ll raise money for Joe Exotic’s commissary. You got someone at this facility saying his attorney at [address] helps him get child pornography. He doesn’t say what city [address] is in though. Waleed Abughanem’s lawyer was probably helping [enemy inmate] get Suboxone into Orleans County Jail. I’m competent, I remember things. Piss on inferior court paperwork. When’s this going to be done? -Luke Wenke”
