Ken and I would like to wish each of you a very Happy, safe and healthy New Year.

If you are going out tonight please be safe, we have had a lot of wrecks here during the holiday season so be safe.

Remember that Ken will be doing updates on both the blog and forums this weekend however neither of them will be down at the same time, his work will be on Saturday night, January 2.

We have asked that all of you think about what are the best cases we have covered this year. What are the saddest cases we have covered? What are the most interesting to you? What do you want to see in 2010 covered? You can list up to five cases if you remember that many.

For me it is for the best cases, a toss up, I am not sure if I would list the “best cases” as those who settled in a way I was pleased. So many of the people we have covered in 2009 have been heartbreaking. The most interesting one was the Howard K. Stern vs. Rita Cosby, there were so many publicly available depositions and filings in this case that for someone who loves legal papers this is the most interesting one.

The saddest cases we have covered would be the Casey Anthony case. The most frustrating one was the Roland Carnaby alleged CIA case. The federal court granted the motions for Summary Judgment so we will never learn what really happened in that wreck, why the computer went to the Secret Service, and of course this will continue to feed the conspiracy nuts. The death of John O’Quinn was another tragedy. I remember in 2007 I said that we were witnessing two titans in the legal field in the numerous Anna Nicole Smith cases and I predicted one would go on to be thought of as the top lawyer with the most recognizable name and one would retire. I was so wrong about that I still think of the people who loved this man, yes there were many, facing this first holiday season without their colleague and friend. This is followed by the Michael Jackson tragic death and the beginning of family members fighting to control his Estate. For some reason that always happens and it must be very heartbreaking for all three of Jackson’s children. The two most bizarre cases we followed in 2009 was the Lori Drew federal criminal case of violating the TOS of MySpace and of course we can’t leave out Michelle Bruan, the Hollywood Madam

For 2010, we will finish all things Anna Nicole Smith as we have always promised, although I have to admit I am really worn down on these cases and will be glad when the last one to wind up hopefully by the summer of 2010. We will cover the Casey and Caylee Anthony case in 2010, as I have said many times I do not like to cover missing or murdered children because it is heart wrenching to me. However as the documents become public in this case with three trials coming up in 2010, I feel this is a have to case to follow. I also think Michael Jackson’s death, indictments, trials and continued fighting over his Estate will be at the forefront of our coverage. Now that Roman Polanski’s appeal to drop his case in the California Appeals Court has been denied we will follow whether the U. S. is successful in expediting Polinski and if so we will cover that trial.

Please share the cases you feel were the best, most interesting and saddest in 2009. Share with us the cases you want us to cover in 2010. You can post your thoughts with us here on the blog or in the members’ only forums.

There have been so many personal tragedies for so many of you in 2009, we wish you healing and only the good memories of those of you who have lost someone remain in 2010. May each of you find peace in the New Year.

Be sure to participate in our MEMBERS ONLY FORUMS, get the most out of the site by learning your way around in the forums where you can safely discuss things you do not want to see copied and pasted on another site.

Have a Happy and Blessed New Year.

When Michelle Braun graced Rose Speaks.com the day of her sentencing, one of the things she posted was she wasn’t worried about making more money that is always something easy to do if you are smart, like her.

Braun pled guilty to one count of money laundering and one count of transporting a woman across state lines for prostitution. Braun is quick to say she WAS NOT convicted of anything because the federal government had nothing to convict her on. So why did Braun plead guilty and get six (6) months of house arrest and three (3) years of probation. It is simple Braun said she took a bullet for everyone, family members, Johns and her girls, OH REALLY???

Braun was quick to start her P. R. campaign with the announcement of a tell all book to a “news” infotainment gossip rag in New York that she was taking Hugh Hefner and the Playboy empire on face to face. Of course this is shortly after settling a copyright suit with Playboy and Hefner out of court. What is that saying; “hell has no fury like a woman climbing back up to the top”? Braun is taking on Playboy’s image of the wholesome girl next door turned Playboy centerfold vowing to debunk that myth. I did not know that is how Playboy billed their centerfolds, they don’t look like most girls next door in my world, they are sexual air brushed hot nudes, made to make men have wonderful fantasies. Like sugarplums at Christmas dance through the heads of children, Playboy plays to the fantasies of adults. However, Michelle Braun is to do a tell all book about how she always had one girl inside the world of Hefner’s house to “recruit” for her yearly multimillion dollar business. Braun is claiming that at one time six of the seven women living at the Playboy Mansion worked for Braun behind Hefner’s back. Why take on Hugh Hefner and the Playboy Empire, easy it gets her that face time she desires and it keeps her busy for the next six months.

Then entered Tiger Woods and the around the clock infotainment coverage, one New York rag had Tiger on the front page for 25 straight days and will have him on the cover through the end of the year no doubt. Michelle Braun sprung to get into that, after all famous man, lots of money, beautiful girls, of course that would include Braun wouldn’t it? She appeared on every show that she could get with the bracelet on her ankle and from her Florida home. You know that is what house arrest consists of no matter how nice the home or the number of shows willing to do a video feed from her confining quarters. Her home sweet home for the next five months, we saw show after show featuring her confessions of how much Woods spent per night with her prostitutes and which ones as they were uncovered worked for her stable. You have to give her credit she is her own best promoter in the world of needing that P. R. However one site says this “might not be true”, if so expect Marty Singer, Hollywood heavy weight lawyer to ask for those IRS 1099 forms.

My question whom did she take that bullet for? She is taking on Hugh Hefner, the Playboy Empire and now Tiger Woods. In the Woods’ sensational infotainment news Braun has threatened to release 1099 IRS forms on the girls who say they never worked for her. We got to see that “confession” by Braun during a few prime time coverage shows and a lot of infotainment shows like Geraldo on Fox.

Is there anymore empires, rich men or beautiful women who need to worry about whether or not they are on her list of “secrets to keep”. I bet that the “ex-Madam’s” reemergence on to the stage of a “Madam” turned author will prove to be interesting to say the least. As she continues to refer to them as “her girls” and at the expense of all of those people she claims she took the bullet for, by the way who did she take a bullet for? Why didn’t the feds keep those 1099 IRS forms? One could guess that was an early Christmas present to the “Madam” from the feds. After all a girl has to work.

We are lucky to have the two pictures merged with this article. The one on the left is of the flat chest-ed girl with a tad long nose who really does look like the girl next door. This is side by side of the voluptuous huge breasted, hour glass figure that comes with the high price payments of plastic surgery, should she send out thank-you cards to those who gave her those boobs? Braun had a message for all, the day of her sentencing especially to all of her fans on her Face Book; note the finger that perhaps was the first hint she was out for money and blood. Ah the woman scorned who will end up in the tell all book who all did she offer up to the book publishers to sell her idea? One thing is for sure Braun does not intend to stay mum as Heidi Fleiss the last Hollywood Madam did for her girls and more important the rich and powerful men her business served.

We shall wait and see what sweet tidbits this “Hollywood Madam” called Michelle Braun offers up. Never fear Rose Speaks.com will continue with the coverage of the plight, the journey, the fall only to rise again if she has her way called the millionaire Madam.

Michelle Braun the latest Hollywood Madam whose business was bigger then Heidi Fleiss, with more ex-Playmates and even some porn stars served the very rich and famous from the U. S. to overseas. Braun will be sentenced today in a federal California Court. The U. S. is recommended five (5) years probation with no more than six (6) months of house arrest.

The federal government has stated that Michelle Braun has given over her electronic black books and is helping the federal government in its ongoing investigation of whose who in Hollywood and how far reaching literally – globally, her “organization” was.

Braun has pled guilty to one felony charge of transporting a woman across state lines for the purpose of prostitution and one felony account of money laundering.

Many wondered why Braun immediately agreed to a plea bargain and to hand over her list of “Johns”. Now we know in the Civil Forfeiture part of this case.

Braun was quick to make this deal because this was truly in every sense of the word a family affair. Braun’s husband, Farrell Kellener, was listed as the president of the multiple business names for Nikki’s Girls with advertising online and a chunk of change to rent one of these girls. Braun got caught by giving service online to an undercover agent. But then she does love to be referred to as “Queen”. Braun’s sister, Mandy Gray of Bakersfield California, worked as her secretary and bookkeeper, her parents had a piece of the action, Braun kept money stashed out of the country, per filings Amsterdam seemed to be her favorite place to stash the extra case. She had a plan to flee the U. S. to a rich uncle in Mexico and then on to a country where extradition was not a guarantee. However, the most surprising family member involved was her brother, listed as a Newport Beach California attorney, however his name is alleged to be Jeff L. Braun. Braun’s brother, the attorney, told everyone he was not Michelle’s brother, and he appears to be protected hin filings as just her brother a Newport Beach Attorney, but once the U. S. government asked for the Civil Suit to be unsealed and the Stay lifted, there was her brother, listed as a “Newport Beach California attorney” who had his sister power of attorney to access her funds if needed for bail money or other expenses. Is aiding a sister in money laundering and prostitution an ethics violation in California? Hell is not reporting a crime an ethics violation in California? However, Braun being the good daughter and sister has taken the full force of the U. S. Government conviction upon herself. Next question why is Michelle Braun getting such a little bit of slap on the hands both sentence wise and property the federal government wants? Remember how much time both the previous Hollywood Madam, Heidi Fleiss and the D. C. Madam received?

You might note also that Michelle Braun’s attorney is Ellyn Garofalo of the Dr. Sandeep Kapoor of Anna Nicole Smith fame. All of this is things that make most of us go Mmmmmmmm. Remember the D. C. Madam was going to jail no if, buts or ands about it, so what is different in this family affair of prostitution, lots of money and high living in Braun’s case.

Here are a list of documents we have obtained in this case well worth a read of crime does pay.

After more than 18 years working as a private investigator in the arena of DIVORCE there is nothing I have not seen. We get hundreds of thousands of people coming to desperateexes.com either looking for help, trying to figure out what just happened or is what is happening to them ‘normal’. There is nothing ‘normal’ when two people who once loved and/or cared for each other are trying to gut each other like a pair of rainbow trout! Nothing at all! And sometimes they try to do it ‘pro per’ and most of the time they have DIVORCE lawyers or as they like to be called ‘Family Law’ specialists.

We will use ‘real’ words, I love the word ‘DIVORCE’, family law sounds like a pleasant experience. Folks none of this is going to be pleasant, maybe two or three times I have had clients who realized what time it was and did the right thing. What you ask is the right thing? You have ten dollars and you take five dollars and the other side gets five dollars. Otherwise the ten dollars goes like this, your lawyer will take $4.00 and the other lawyer will take $4.00 and some lucky private investigator will get $1.50. I have made this as simple as I can and yes I have seen this done with millions of dollars and yes everyone was thrilled, that is the lawyers and me!

The subject of these articles will be based on real people going through a real day in court. No one has ever accused me of mincing words and if it is a pig I am calling it just that, a pig. America is a ‘melting pot’ and along with that pot is some cultural habits that don’t change because some of these people now live in the U.S. You can see this horse crap in our civil courts and our criminal courts. So I hope that my perspective will help women and men who have decided to take the plunge and DIVORCE each other. Nazarian and Associates thanks RoseSpeaks.com for their interest in these observations from a courtroom in America, sure every state is different but there is very common denominators when comes to ‘screwing each other’ in the game known as DIVORCE.

We will be doing lead in articles to John J. Nazarian’s series of DIVORCE, I wish this had been available to me at the time, and I think and we hope this will cause both thoughts and dialogue. If you have a question ask Mr. Nazarian if he can I am sure he will either answer it or address it in an upcoming article.

Visit Desperate Exes.com for the continuing series on DIVORCE America Style!

To Beth for the legal papers she explains so well. Heath who does so much behind the scenes that Rose Speaks.com would not be seen as running as smoothly as it does without her special “observer”, [as I have nicknamed her], touch but who does so much and never expects anything back. Roxanne our blunt, and yet kind and problem solving moderator who makes us laugh, shoots from the hip and is always there to help each member with her open email door policy and caring and keeping the problem solving running so smoothly. Diamond Girl who is taking a chance and learning the public forums and building them literally from the ground up for all of you to enjoy, be a part of it, we encourage each of you to be and she now has her own Rose Speaks.com email addy check for it in the forums. Then there are Fifi, Lian and Sammy all of whom are trying to keep the chat going, I promise ladies it will get better over the summer with more scheduled chats both just getting to know you chats and chats on the cases we are covering.

To moderators and admins who have come and gone, each leaving a permanent imprint of their presence and the many hours they gave.

To sources for articles and cases to follow, who wished to remain just that, nameless sources, thanks for your confidence in Rose Speaks.com.

Way too many to thank individually if I missed you I am sorry, post and we shall add you to the list as today goes on.

To our guest writers:

John J. Nazarian, Private Investigator Extraordinaire who brought us in the courtroom coverage of Anthony Pellicano, and crew and then covered the trial of Terry Christensen. He then shared his humor and his thoughts with us, made us laugh, made us think and we are the better for both. He took a risk with us before we were one year old and has brought in a lot of readers with his unique approach to all he writes about. Not to mention the added class of Charlee. Mr. Nazarian had one stead fast rule from day one, “Rose make sure you spell my name right”. We have tried and thanks for your insight and sharing with us here. Be sure you visit Mr. Nazarian’s site for your daily take on how Mr. Nazarian sees the world and blogs about DesperateExes.com.

The video person who is great at what they do and follows the best story leads for us. Staying on top of the latest news as it breaks via video from Casey Anthony in Florida, to Roland Carnaby in Houston and maintains the Rose Speaks.com You Tube channel, and do we want to cover Drew Peterson? If there is a case out there you want us to cover, and video exists let us know, we will get it up for all of you.

Sprocket, who covered Phil Spector, and stayed the course, including every day for two different jury watches, and was there to see justice done for Lana Clarkson and her family and kept the only diary of the daily proceedings that can be found anywhere. We hope Sprocket will give us her insight as well on the upcoming criminal proceedings in California including Stern, Kapoor and Dr. Khris, as Sprocket said she will try to cover as much as she can with no holds barred and calling and writing as she sees it. We also look forward to Sprocket’s take on other cases.

Our Hollywood Madam sources, thanks for the head’s up and some of the documents and pictures we will be putting up as we cover this story, of Michelle Braun, as it perhaps unravels some of the rich and powerful from coast to coast here in the U. S. and if it stretches to other countries. .

Art Harris, owner of The Bald Truth who trusted me as a confidant and took me under his journalistic “wings” and taught me so much as a teacher, mentor, and friend.

Daniel DiCriscio, the Messiah of Makeovers, who is witty, but also writes some gut wrenching and the kind that makes you cry as he brings us into the world we call Hollyweird. Daniel DiCriscio covers the L. A. Scene for us, and will be covering Howard K. Stern, Dr. Sandeep Kapoor, and Dr. Khristine Eroshevich, will be there for the preliminary hearings. Wow two weeks of evidence we have all held our breaths until we see who are the witnesses.

All things Anna Nicole Smith, those intertwining at every corner that put Rose Speaks.com on the map so we could attract writers like John J. Nazarian, Sprocket and Daniel DiCriscio.

Those who have given us Exclusive interviews including:

Pol Atteu’ and Patrik Simpson, who gave us exclusive interviews and insights to their lawsuit they recently won their daughter’s graduation from high school and new things on the horizons for them.

Nathan Collins, who told us the truth about his relationship with Daniel Smith (and no we did not publish it) his frank honesty is something we will go back to as all of the trials continue forward.

But most of all to you the readers, who keep coming back with new ones added weekly. Our thanks whether you post or lurk, you make us all want to just do better, making Rose Speaks.com we hope informative, sharing of intelligent thoughts and ideas on the cases we pick to cover, the cases each of you help us pick with suggestions.

As always, thank you for flying Rose Speaks.com, each of you keep the energy flowing; the enjoyment of legal papers; learning from each other; intelligent thoughts shared with one and all and giving lessons to each new person with one of our mottos, “let google be your friend.”.

My deepest and heartfelt thanks to each of you for just hanging with us through those rough times and coming through them with us making sure we grow in readership and we hope get better because of you, the readers.

Following her arrest on May 28, 2009 for not keeping the terms of her bond, the Hollywood Madam, Michelle Braun, also known as “Nici” arrived at court in California on June 19 with her very own U. S. Marshals picking her up in Florida, holding her there and then bringing her to California last week.

In notes from the June 19 hearing held in U. S Central District Federal Court of California the Honorable Cormac J. Carney accepted Braun’s plea of guilty on two counts of felonies and the Judge stated in his Order on Friday, June 19, 2009 that, “The Court ORDERS the preparation of a Presentence Report. Sentencing set for 10/19/2009 10:00 AM”. The presentence report is to be sent to the Court one week before sentencing.

However, the real kicker here is that Judge Cormac J. Carney also issued the following stating in the proceedings, “Defendant, [Michelle Braun a/k/a Nici], Ordered released from custody forthwith under same terms and conditions of bond approved 05/11/09.” That would be the same bond and terms of release under the bond that she failed to follow the first time around…. Mmmmmmmmmm who does she know or who is she ratting out? The judge also slipped in this little tidbit, “Court vacates status conference date and trial date as “to this defendant only”. So far Hollywood Madam, Michelle Braun, is the only one charged in this investigation but she has been cooperating with the federal government with any federal agency that “wants” her to talk, so perhaps that bought her a get out of jail free card. Will we see more indictments over the summer? Who will “Nici” take down with her? Why does the federal Court Judge Carney thinks she will abide by the terms of staying out of jail with her bond will work this time around? Has he read the report from Florida about what all Braun has NOT done per the bond agreement?

Braun, affectionately called the Hollywood Madam is out to frolic with her girls and her favorite clients and those she loves. She refers to Tommy Lee of Motley Crue as “her boy”, and that she just loves him so much in her photo album, he appears to be much closer to Nici then Nikki Sixx of the Motley Crue. What’s in your pocket Tommy Lee?

We are going to stay on top of this story as we unravel who all Braun knows, one rumor says she has one of the past President’s Bush on speed dial, any bets as to which one?

Read the latest in our download section open to All, not just members of Rose Speaks.com on this fascinating case of justice, with the Madam who jet sets on her or one of her good friends jets, except she has turned over her passport.

I want to thank y’all for the outpouring of love and support being shown towards Rose during this time, especially after learning yesterday from the doctor about the serious downturn in her health. We are deeply touched that not only has it come from the members of the blog here but it also seems that no matter what side of this case you fall upon, there is well wishes and prayers being sent her way. Thank you again.

Many of you have reached out and offered to help with the site any way you can, here is what we need:

1. Public Forum Moderators (you will have control of the forums and the topics…where and what is discussed…. And we will stay off of the forums and out of your way. We will support you and your decisions 100%).

2. Site Moderators. Right now there are three and it is hard now that we are not on the board as much for them to do this. If you are interested in helping contact Roxanne @ rosespeaks.com, Heath @ rosespeaks.com, Daisy @ rosespeaks.com or myself, webmaster @ rosespeaks.com.

3. Chat moderators. Liann has stepped forward and offered to do that, thanks Liann. Hopefully the chat will become more active with the friendship and chats available, Rose will drop in as she feels up to it.

4. Writers. We of course need writers for articles.

Rose has made a list of cases y’all are following:

Birkhead vs. Opri, Opri vs. Birkhead in Los Angeles
California state vs. Stern, Dr. Kapoor and Dr. Eroshevich
Casey Anthony, everything to do with the Florida case
Dr. Cyril H. Wecht new trial in Penn.
DC Madame and her estate
USA vs. Lori Drew (in federal court in California – cyber stalking)
USA vs. Hollywood Madam, Michelle Braun
Estate of Anna Nicole Smith vs. G. Ben Thompson and Ford Shelley
Howard K. Stern vs. Mark Speer and Jackie Hatten in California civil court
Howard K. Stern vs. Rita Cosby and Hachette Books in New York
Susan Carnaby vs. Harris County Police dept in shooting death of alleged CIA operative
All of the multiple cases in different jurisdictions on the Anna Nicole Smith Estate.
Arthur vs. Stern, TMZ, et. in state court in Houston Texas

I am sure there is more but these are the cases Rose’s Computer shows that she is following.

I will continue to get the papers from the various jurisdictions and court filings and continue to code them in for downloading.

The RoseSpeaks YouTube channel will continue to be maintained and updated as new videos are received. We have a volunteer helping us with it.

Again our thanks for the outpouring of love and support, from all sides of all the cases we are following. As we know more, I will post updates as I am able to here on the board.

Rose wants the site to continue, as do those of us behind the scenes. Y’all have put a lot of work into the site and I believe we can keep it going.

As Rose and I have said many times, thanks for flying Rose Speaks, we enjoy every minute of it.

Ken, Rose and all of your overworked moderators/admins.
