Joel's Story
Americas Wrongfully Convicted
Before I begin, I would like to make sure that it is known that I am only speaking in my OWN defense. I cannot speak for any of the other parties mentioned in this whole situation. Nor can I give any insight towards the actions, reactions, or thoughts of said parties. This is only a blog in response to attacks on MY name.
In Joel's Story, you title Chapter 9 "Chapter 9: Chelsea Hoffman Farris", after me. First, I will correct you and say that not now, nor have I EVER used the last name Farris. My name is Chelsea Kay Hoffman-Freeman. Freeman being my married name. From the beginning of the chapter you spin lie after lie after lie about me, my family, and my relationships with others around me. You lied about everything from the style of clothes i wore (dresses? really? get real) to the more important details leading to your CONVICTION.
You also contradict yourself in your little story, there. At one point you say I was a legal adult when you met me, and then in another paragraph you admit that I was, in fact underage when we met.
I was 17, Joel. 17 years old. It was 2001. It was spring I think. I was on my grandfathers 4-wheeler, visiting Victoria Ries's residence, and you were there. From THAT VERY MOMENT I knew you were a little perverted(though to what extent?) Don't you remember? Ms. Ries's nephew, Ben was there, (a 14-15 year old boy) Lil Vic was there (then 12) and Tammy Stothart was there (then , 21??)
In front of all of them, you persuaded both ME AND TAMMY to discuss some adult based business with you. Ranging from pornography, to nude music videos. I will admit, at 17 years old, trapped on a desolate mountain, I was bored, and easilly convinced to do edgy things. I obliged in your ideas, and agreed to "work for you". I would have NEVER said it then, but I will say it now. I was a naive, CHILD. At one point, you convinced me to show you my breasts and let you fondle them for 20 bucks. I was still UNDERAGE, at 17 years old. I was STUPID, and thought 20 bucks was an awesome thing to have, seeing as though I had no money, and nothing to do in that tiny, sparce area.
Your advances didn't stop there. Not too long after I let you fondle and look, at my breasts, you delivered a "note" with a detailed laundry list of sexual acts and what you would PAY FOR THEM.
I never took it farther than that. I destroyed the note, and forgot about it.
You mention and HAVE mentioned during your trial, my tattooes, and piercings, as if they are of any significance. Hey, newsflash, I took out the piercings, but I am now , up to 9 tattooes.. have a problem with it? so what.
Now let us move on to how you described my family situation. First of all, YES, my father did time in prison for MAKING (not selling) Crystal Methaamphetamines. And I admit, as a teenager, and young adult I did, too, experiment with meth.( i am clean and sober, drug free now, at 24 years old) I have never been close to my father, so that doesn't matter now does it. You say my aunt's husband was facing murder charges? That, my friend, is an outright LIE (again again again). Get the facts straight. It is my aunt's EX husband, and he is not facing any charges, it is a woman whom he DATED that was questioned for murder at one point.(outcome to which i dont know)
Also, I really wasn't aware that Vernon even had a high school. Nor did I ever attend said high school. Didnt ever take a computer class in Arizona either.
Also, I didnt just "appear" in Show Low Pines/Paradise from Hackleburg,Alabama. I had in fact, lived there off and on from the time I was 14 years old. You state that I was running from Hackleburg,Alabama as a murder suspect, and that I had been married at 13.
The truth is this - I didnt get married until one month before my 16th birthday. in a town called CLANTON, Alabama. I was NEVER a fugitive, or suspect, or even QUESTIONED in ANY murder trial. In fact, the only legal issue I ever had in the state of Alabama, was when I was 14, and ran away from home with a best friend and her boyfriend who was tried for harboring a minor, and sexual misconduct.
Whats more, is that you not only accuse me of murdering my best friend (whom u cant seem to name for some reason) you are twisting different fragments of information into some weird compressed timeline of nonsense. I didn't have a bisexual love affair with anyone at 13, or 14, or 15. And I sure as hell wouldn't have even had the inclination, much less abillity to murder someone out.
Also, don't you think with advancements in forensic science, that Id have been CAUGHT?
I never burned a friend's house down.
I DID however, set fire ACCIDENTALLY to an uncles home, when i was 7 years old.
I never killed my grandmothers dog. My grandmother had a chihuahua for 12 years, that died of natural causes, while I was 1600 miles away.
My relationship with my family, is not a secret. I didn't get along with my druggy criminal father, I didnt get along with my childish and arrogant uncle, and me and grandma fought like cats and dogs. As far as I know, most teenage girls have issues with their parental units. But I wasn't abused. ever. I was treated as an adult, even when I didnt want to be, and that is what prepared me for being an adult. My grandparents, and my aunt, are and were GOOD PEOPLE. Good people who had no part in your nasty little production.
Also, I never, ever ever said my father molested me. He never did. He wasn't even around 99% of my life. So theres ANOTHER LIE of yours corrected.
When I moved out of my grandparents home, it was NOT because I had worn out my welcome. It was because I was invited to move in with Victoria Ries, and I WANTED to move out. Nor did I move out of Victoria's home for the reason you claimed. I moved in with YOU BECAUSE YOU ASKED ME TO. YOU OFFERED ME A PAYING JOB WORKING FOR YOUR BOGUS BUSINESS VENTURES.
we agreed that I wouldnt pay rent, but I would help with the food stamps I receieved monthly (thank goodness I dont need welfare anymore, whereas you probably would if you werent locked up on MY tax dollar)
Steven Wheeler's part in my life
When I met Steven, he was hanging out with my uncle. His father was a good friend of both my grandparents, and Dave Hammer. I had no sexual feelings for Steven. The only feelings I had for him were platonic. As he was one of the ONLY people in a 12 mile radius that was somewhat near my age group. I was never his "buddy". I was never his "lover". I do recall having "sparring" matches in the yard with Steve. Again, I will say, I was 17 years old. I was bored. give me a break.
I never offered him sexual favors for money, or anything. Especially not to fund parties in town, as I really didnt have much reason to go into town. I did most of my getting drunk and being wild out in the wilderness where I lived.
You bring up the situation in which Steven said I molested some little girl. Well. I still have to laugh about that situation. I didnt even KNOW those girls, had only laid eyes on them once or twice. I didnt know their mother, and I didnt hang around those people. I simply knew OF them. The conversation you said I was part of, never even happened. I never said anything about masturbation to a child, and i never would. YOU ARE LYING.(again, like always)
And need I remind you that Steven Wheeler, himself was an absconder from Oregon? He was a sex offender that refused to register in Arizona. And that Sandy, the mother of these girls, let those same girls be taken into foster care, because she would have rather been with Steve. remember that?
You mention that I idolized a famous bondage model. well, let me clarify something to you. Her name is Bettie Page, and she is VERY popular, and idolized by hundreds, if not THOUSANDS of women throughout the entire world, and has been this way since the 1940s. Not really an important piece of information to post about me in your story. ;) Why do I idolize her? not for the bondage modeling, but for the fact that she was the worlds first supermodel, and a size 14.
I can go on and on until my fingers bleed from typing too much...
But I wont play your game, Joel. I know this is what you want. You want all of us to give you attention, just like you are thirsting for media coverage of your nonsense. You WANT me to file a slander lawsuit against you and your "fiance", but you and I both know that that would be a worthless venture. You both have nothing I want, or need. and you never will, I am sure of it.
I can sit here for days and pick apart every sentence in your drawn out diatribe of deception and conspiracy. But lets face it. Will it matter?
You are obsessed with this notion that you shouldn't be punished for the crimes you have committed. You have this weird vision of revenge against those you VICTIMIZED. Even after you have been convicted, and sentenced, you manage to reach out and continue your harassment against all of us, and you manage to stay just within the legal boundaries of doing so.
You post pictures of me, and the people whom I consider my family. You even have visible pics of my underage neice who has nothing to do with this entire ordeal. Not only have you invaded our privacy by doing this, you have shown that you are tracking all of us. You have researched, and kept tabs on us like we are animals to be tracked. It is now impossible for any of us to carry on like normal human beings because we are constantly under your watchful eye, like we are a show for your perverted enjoyment.
But go ahead, and enjoy your show. But you are not the puppet master, Joel, and nobody is going to entertain your DOWNRIGHT CRAZY accusations and conspiracy theories.
You are a child molester. A sex offender. You were tried legally, and fairly, and were convicted based on the evidence that YOU left behind. Our testimonies didnt mean much. and you know that.
How DARE you continue to slander, and harass after you have done so much damage already. You stole the inocence of a little girl, you scarred her for life, and she will never have the chance of knowing what a NORMAL childhood is like, because of YOU and YOUR actions.
but lets face it, you were only convicted of TWO counts of molestation. The majority of your crime was CHILD PORNOGRAPHY. Which was proven. Bottom line. You are a pedophile, and no amount of desperate ranting, and slander will change that.
I will say THIS to you, in one final attempt at my defense. I never "coerced" Victoria Roderick into making ANYTHING up. In fact, SHE approaced me and Tammy. SHE CAME TO US. And I was very shocked to hear that my nagging little suspicions were true. I believe her, and if I had ANY doubt, I wouldn't have taken any part in your trial. BUT I BELIEVE HER. What child would lie about a grown man, such as yourself, molesting them? What child would do that? And what kind of man accuses a child of lying about it. How dare you. You make me sick.
To Ms. Pamela Despencer (aka Paloma)
I would like to say some things to you, for, literally, the FIRST TIME since I lived on Joel's property. I know you are the creator of Joel's site, and you are his little lapdog in this tale of falsities. Your site is very theatrical, with a storyline straight from "CSI:crime scene investigation".
But something that really struck a nerve with me, is the section in which you display, so-called emails from "me". I put "me". In quotations because you and I both know that those email weren't written, or sent by me. Those are completely fabricated. You know this, yet you insist on using these lies to fight your cause.
If Joel is such an inocent martyr, then why do you feel the need to fabricate stories about me and the other involved in this case????
Here, I will cut&paste the emails you have on your page :
[ "Then, I began recieving emails from Chelsea Hoffman Farris, and obviously,she knew all along how to find me. That was due to the fact that C. Scott
Cantrell was comminicating with her the entire time since I left Arizona and
had no compunction about lying to me.

You must REALLY have a lot of time on your hands, to be constantly sending updated emails to yourself. That IS what youre doing isn't it? Sending emails to yourself, pretending to be me, so you can have some "filler" for your ridiculous little website??
Do you not realize that you are being oh so obvious about that? I mean, in "Joel's Story", he describes me as some criminal mastermind, who at a young age managed to get away with murder,arson,molestation (etc.etc.etc.) But your little fake emails indicate that I am an un-educated dimwit. Do you not think that people wont notice those little instances of incontinuity? I dont think it helps your cause at all!
I think I have said enough. So I will close this blog, with a few final thoughts.
I don't care if you can track me, and know where I reside, or what kind of social networking sites I use. I dont care that you are both insanely obsessed with this weird fantasy that you created. I am living my life, and have moved on from this horrible ordeal. And so is everyone else, as far as I know. I know you guys will never stop, because you are sick people, and I feel bad for you because of your mental illness.
So I will go ahead and post my email for you to contact me. Sorry, I DID take the precaution of making a new one, can't have you spamming my personal box with your nonsense, hope you understand.
enoughisenough420@gmail.com
you get that? ENOUGH IS ENOUGH.
I will say it again.
ENOUGH
is
ENOUGH
