Robbie Thomas is not a psychic and not a very good liar (Or: Anthrax Attacks & Hate Groups)

Robbie Thomas' clan is claiming that two respectable businessmen who handed out information regarding Robbie Thomas' failures and lies are part of a hate group.  (Damn it, why can't I be part of a hate group?  It sounds much more fun than doing good things for the sake of doing good things.) 

Let me make this clear (especially if I'm part of this hate group and haven't received my membership card):  I am not connected with the Caughlin family and, as far as I know, nobody else who contributes to this blog (or is actively trying to expose Robbie) is connected with them.  The Caughlin family provided information to myself and others in an attempt to have Robbie stop using their family in his promotions and to help put a "face" on his disgusting acts.  I support, fully, the Caughlin family in their attempts to bring a close to their unsolved case and the focus of my blog will remain on skepticism of all sorts.  The fact that Robbie Thomas is a liar and a fraud is independent of (though additionally proven by) the Caughlin case.

Below is an excerpt from the Press Release that Robbie Thomas' friend/promoter/'talent manager', John Ramses, sent out:  (Note: I removed the bullshit about Robbie and the Caughlin case as much as I could - the first part is left in as I countered the claim in the statement above).  My comments are in blue.

Mr Thomas has been recently attacked by a local sarnia-based hate group who has connections in the Caughlin issue (Wrong.).  Their web site attempts to defame and slander Mr Thomas (attempts? heck, we must try harder. Oh wait, telling the truth isn't slander - I guess we're not attempting anything of the sort.) in hope to discredit Mr Thomas in the public eye should he talk of his knowledge and participation in the Caughlin case (wrong again, we're hoping to discredit "Mr." Thomas whenever he claims to have psychic abilities.  His claim to be involved in the Caughlin case, however, makes him a lying scumbag.).


The same hate-group recently disrupted a performance at the Imperial Theater in Sarnia (sorry, you are not permitted to redefine the word "disrupted", you idiot.), where Mr Thomas was performing a show, by harassing patrons (they handed out flyers to patrons, held the doors for patrons and even loaned one of the 'attendees' a lighter so she could light her cigarette - that's not harassment, that's courtesy - something that Robbie doesn't give.) and handing out white (they weren't white, I have one) sealed envelopes with orders (yeah, orders - the label says "Thank You & Enjoy The Show" and has a note to open when they get to their seats) not to open the envelopes until they were inside and seated.

Many patrons left the venue (none left, so the next part of the line is bullshit) fearing a possible anthrax attack (really? Robbie Thomas & John Ramses are such f__king scumbags that they'd suggest that people who are against psychic frauds would try to kill innocent and trusting people who happen to believe that Robbie Thomas isn't lying?). Of those who remained to see the show, only 40 made it inside (this doesn't make any sense - either they made it inside and then left the show or they didn't make it inside the show - the answer is far less crazy than John and Robbie will have you think.  Robbie sold fewer than 40 tickets prior to the doors opening - that means that there would be fewer than 40 people attending the show, which, from what I'm told, was the case.) before the theatre manager shut and locked the doors fearing for the safety of his crew and patrons. (I'd suggest that if the manager shut and locked the doors for any fear it was because John Ramses or Robbie Thomas LIED to the theatre manager about what might happen.  I doubt that I'd be the first to suggest that Robbie Thomas would go so far as to lie.  I've met everyone who was involved in the 'information session' and I can, confidently, say that they posed no threat and the people working the theatre had no reason for worry UNLESS they were lied to about the situation.)

Police were called to the scene but according to Mr Thomas' manager, John Ramses, who spoke to the Sarnia police of the incident, no one was arrested (because no crime was committed) and the contents of the envelope were not investigated (Somebody is lying - if a videotape shows the police officer opening the envelope and apparently reading the information inside would Robbie Thomas' crew be lying?  Just curious.).

Mr Ramses, who is an Australian resident and both promoter and talent manager for Robbie Thomas, is currently seeking legal action against the Sarnia based hate group on several accounts. (Are you serious?  If I couldn't verify the press release to be authentic, I'd be calling "bullshit" on this one.  If this is supposed to be serious, let me apologize now for this:  ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.  Robbie and John should be a comedy duo.  That's frickin' funny - I don't care who you are.)

Here it is again, without my in-line comments:

If you want the original press release, email me at sarniaskeptic@gmail.com.  It is a mish-mash of hardly cohesive statements filled with falsities and lies (as you can see above).  It misrepresents the truth and furthers Robbie Thomas' attempt to suggest involvement in the resolution of a crime that (to this day) remains unsolved.  Robbie truly is that big of a slimeball.  Oh.. and he's not psychic either.  His solved cases counter remains at 0 (zero, zilch).

Why havent you done a blog on what Robbie said on the radio show. There is an article on the observer website
http://www.theobserver.ca/ArticleDisplay.aspx?e=2490439
He seems pretty slimey

If I could... I would avoid using the phrase; "I told you so."

This is exactly the reason why I (and other commentors) have tried to tell you NOT to proceed as you did against Robbie Thomas and his event.

You gave him exactly what he wanted... PUBLICITY!

No amount of blue font ranting is going undo it.

I dread to ask... but...

What are you going to do next?

sarniaskeptic said...

"I told you so" fails when you consider the outcomes. How shortsighed you obviously are.

:) You'll have to pay better attention to what is going on.

The result of the "protest" has encouraged Robbie and his crew to make some serious missteps. What lies ahead is exciting :) The best is yet to come.

Oh... and what happened to Robbie's tour?

Here's you chance... enlighten me to how this whole thing was a GOOD thing.

":) You'll have to pay better attention to what is going on."

Pay better attention? OH! You mean the blue font? That is the final say, is it? So your blue font has chased Thomas from the scene for good?

"The result of the "protest" has encouraged Robbie and his crew to make some serious missteps. What lies ahead is exciting :) The best is yet to come."

So is this another one of your claims where you single handed stopped people from buying tickets to the event?

"Oh... and what happened to Robbie's tour?"

Robbie's tour was getting cancelled in cities long before you blogged about it. The sales were no existant from the start... so spare us the victory parade.

Forgive me for pointing out the obvious but SarniaSkeptic posted articles about Robbie Thomas long before the Psychic Justice tour was announced.
As my mother (bless her soul) always said 'good to complain about inaction, foolish to complain about it if you're guilty as well'
Mr. Anonymous is a fool.
I can not say this site made a difference anymore than you can say it did not but never underestimate the power of 1.

Robbie Thomas was asked to "GO HOME" and "LEAVE" concerning the Holloway Case. Those are his own words.

Robbie says he "solved" things after the fact, or after it was published in a Newspaper.

If he was helping the family, helping the police and "solving the case" he wouldn't be asked to leave.

And this whole idea of Anthrax - seriously, Psychic Robbie Thomas and the following are seriously ill, or they put together that press release so you can comment on it and then say they didn't do it and we are making all this up.

The article in the Sarnia Newspaper gives him a sense of credibility to those who blindly follow, and not ask.

I'm surprised no one has commented or written a letter to the editor and why the author did not contact the police.

Selling less than 40 tickets in a city the size of 3,800,000+ (LA) makes one come up with a clever out:

NOTICE: Due due to the sudden life-threatening illness of an immediate family member, the tour dates have been postponed. L.A. is recheduled to the following week. Other venues will be rescheduled in the very near future. Your tickets will be honored for the new date for your venue, or simply request a refund and your account will be credited. We appologize for this inconvenience. - John Ramses, Labyrinth

Really? I did not know that. When was the first article posted on this blog about Robbie Thomas?

"As my mother (bless her soul) always said 'good to complain about inaction, foolish to complain about it if you're guilty as well'
Mr. Anonymous is a fool."

This would be true, had I set up a blog and took it upon myself to take on the anti-Robbie crusade.

Which I did not.

But Sarnia Skeptic did.

So I (and some others) read through the 'plan of attack' and found it unwise.

I gave my advise in hopes that it would help.

It did not.

"I can not say this site made a difference anymore than you can say it did not but never underestimate the power of 1."

How would this blog have made a difference?

Mike (No, I don't think I know who you are): I'm not looking for publicity or "credit" for anything with Robbie. I don't really care for credit. I'll continue to do what I do and if it makes a difference, great. If it doesn't, well, I had fun doing it.

Anonymous: I suspect that Mike is referring to posts earlier this year (before Robbie announced his psychic justice tour) but there is at least one even older than that. Psychic Solves Abduction/Murder Case in May of 2009. It was that article that started people emailing me about Robbie Thomas.

Also, from your statements, I think I know who you are and I do appreciate your suggestions. As I'm not in law enforcement, I'm somewhat limited in what it is that I can achieve as it relates to criminal charges. Having said that, I'm not interested in ruining Robbie Thomas' life (at this point - though if he keeps up his claims about anthrax and charges, the game could change). I think most people would simply be happy if he changed his ways - until then we'll keep the pressure on.

I just hope something ends this stupid "criminal profiler" and "psychic detective" trip Psychic Robbie Thomas is on.

He is using the hopes and dreams of families and the memories of dead children for his own gain.

That's sickening.

Get off your high-horse and shut up.

"there is no way that robbie sent a press relase that talked anthrax attack your a fn liar"

There is no way that Robbie sent a press release that mentioned an "anthrax attack". You are an F-N liar!

"dont be jelous that you have no psychic because other ppl do"

You should not be jealous of those people that have psychic (powers), just because you don't.

"how dear you stop ppl from goin to see a show it is just for entertanment cant you let ppl have a fun night out"

How dare you stop people from going to see a show! It is meant to be for entertainment only. Can't you just let people enjoy a fun night out?

"if i was robbie id kick your ass"

If I was Robbie (Thomas), I would kick your ass!

See? Now was it so difficult to use proper grammar and spelling?

sarniaskeptic said...

Robbie Thomas didn't send out the press release his "talent manager" John Ramses sent it out.

It is legitimate (it is sad but funny).

I suggest that somebody didn't read the full article (that can be hard for some people).

Oh well, thanks for the laugh!

Carrie Pierce, did you have a fun night out discussing dead children and watching grieving parents put the hopes into the hands of a fraud?
