archive.org/details/grannonliesvictimspoliceuk How Many “Victims” Appear in the Documentary? ONE. Russian “Ann”. ONE! And in the Podcast? Only “Ann” and “Claire” (who is “not a good witness” says Isla Traquair). So, where did the number 30 come from? Richard Grannon. My #1 public enemy, Business competitor, Whose work he stole from me. He is the only source of this lie. Richard Grannon also told Vicente and Traquair that I am wanted for questioning by police in the UK. They never bothered to check with the police. They just took his word for it. Bad idea.

archive.org/details/katyalies As the documents show, “Ann” 1. Never went through cold therapy. She asked me to teach her about the technique precisely because she has never experienced it. Cold therapy can be administered only by a licensed clinician, which I am not. This is why I had spent years teaching cold therapy to therapists in multiple seminars all over the world. Cold therapy is an extension of the groundbreaking work by Foa and Kozak (1985); 2. Months after she was no longer a client, it was “Ann” who asked Lidija and I to adopt her and her daughter, “Pups”. The “adoption paper” that she keeps harping about was my attempt to fend off increasingly inappropriate behavior on her part and her aggressive, intrusive advances. In the adoption paper, I made clear to her that I am married and that I had no intention of divorcing Lidija. We became friends of the family. More about this in a future post; 3. This romantic obsession (or gold-digging venture, I wasn’t quite sure) out of the way (or so I thought), “Ann” and I had formed a business partnership (see an earlier post). Yet, unbeknownst to me, she became obsessed. After I have left Russia for good in 2022, she started to stalk me aggressively via phone calls, DM, a WhatsApp tsunami of messages, and e-mails, considerably disrupting my life. I was afraid of what she might do. She attempted to triangulate and when this went disastrously awry, she conspired with Richard Grannon to launch this smear campaign. I hope she is getting the help that she so evidently needs: her children deserve to finally have a functioning mother. I still have a warm spot for her husband and her wonderful kids.

archive.org/details/rglikesyoung As this reel makes clear: Richard Grannon, Isla Traquair, and Mark Vicente (Grannon’s business partner) are lying about the timeline of my fallout with Grannon in December 2022. It was *I* who FIRST confronted Grannon about his inappropriate sexual behavior. Grannon than executed the mother of all DARVOs and accused me of the same. Grannon never ever confronted me with any accusations prior to 2023, a few weeks after I confronted him first. Grannon likes the company of young people, that much he admits. In the podcast, he came clean about his highly inappropriate sexual encounter with a woman less than half his age. He had no choice but to confess, he knows that I possess a mountain of evidence. This sexual encounter was among the reasons for our public acrimonious spat. The other two: 1. He was badmouthing me big time behind my back; and 2. He spent years stealing my work and presenting it as his. The wrong kind of “friend” to have, for sure.
