EFFORTPOST John Fenley the CD guy who bought half the city of Pine Bluff has provoked a stalker who is probably going to kill him

Excellent post about this guy

Tl;dr he bought a defunct company (Murfie) that held onto peoples CDs and vinyl and tried to move it to an impoverished shithole in Arkansas because property value was cheap. The town drove him insane and methheads robbed him daily but he decided to buy up 1000 more properties anyway, most recently a 7 story school administrative building with no plan on what exactly to do with it. He has also tried to run for mayor there as a Libertarian and got arrested for throwing a tantrum at a city council meeting when they said he couldn't turn one of his abandoned warehouse properties into a go-kart track. He represented himself in court.

All of the property of Murfie has been sitting in a bunch of shipping containers while he runs around Hell on Earth acting like a retard. To be clear the average customer of Murfie is like 70 years old. The business would take a CD or vinyl from you and for a subscription fee allow you to listen to your CD or vinyl over a streaming service the entire concept is like something out of the dotcom boom. All of his videos have comments like this from confused customers.

Most of them have had to accept that this inventory is gone, had this dumbass not gotten involved it would have all likely ended up at a landfill anyway because nobody in their right mind would have purchased this company.

However there is one guy who really, really wants his CDs. @PontifierAR on Twitter (Formerly Chuck's) has this pinned to profile and has been dedicated to harassing him for the past five years.

After nearly FIVE Years, I think this sounds reasonable. Do you, #Murfie Customers? I think this is only fair. #JohnFenley doesn’t seem to know how to apologize and change behavior, so I thought I’d help him. #pinebluff #murfie #crossies #pontifier #lino #libertarianinnameonly pic.twitter.com/wibu01eNCW

He has several wordpress sites raging against John Fenley and Murfie and a schizophrenic Youtube channel.

John is active on Reddit as /u/Pontifier. At some point this guy made a Reddit account and would reply with some every time John would post about something. Eventually he responded.

This did not satisfy him. He commented again, John apparently was having a bad day and decided to unload

This has completely set the guy off

The majority of these are reposts of John's comment with ranting

People that are assaulted are often blamed by the perpetrator as provoking it in various ways. This tactic is very common of perpetrators to their victims. I am the victim of #JohnFenley. He has the balls to blame me for what he did. #PineBluff #Murfie #Crossies #Pontifier pic.twitter.com/V2TLj8Pm8Q

This could be interpreted as a threat or at a minimum letting me know he has the power to “lose” my disks. Either way he is now being crazy aggressive. He told me I would get my property and money back in 2020…it’s now almost 2025. #JohnFenley #Pontifier #PineBluff #Murfie pic.twitter.com/KEQjRShhYt

I don't know what timezone he's in, but he's definitely American. His first tweets of the day are all around the same time. He is apparently waking up and thinking about the post first thing in the morning , seething about it throughout the day, and continues to well into the evening, likely shortly before going to sleep . It's safe to assume he dreams about this post as well.

There is hilarious schadenfreude in John's story but a lot of people here seem to root for him. There is something kind of endearing about his insane ambition even if it's delusional and extremely poorly thought out. But clearly his ability to make someone is unsurpassed. I have never made a post on the internet that upset a person as much as this one comment has. I kneel
