David Caruso - Stalker Dupes TV Guide

Months ago we reported here that Heidemarie Schnitzer not only had been discovered moderating IMDb's Caruso-related forums, she had lost those privileges after this blogger reported her violations of their Terms of Service. Using at least eight different names on IMDb, all of Schnitzer's pseudonyms with the exception of "Dixiebabe" were canceled by IMDb. Caruso's stalker is no longer able to delete those on IMDb who oppose her hate campaign against the actor.

After being reduced to nothing more than a squeaky wheel on IMDb, Schnitzer took over the now defunct Vipix and ran rough shod there for months. Stealing screen names and continuing her non-stop diatribe against David Caruso, Schnitzer went into a tailspin when the owners closed the site.

With last week's front page news that Austria's Judge Guenther Boehler had issued an international warrant for her arrest, Schnitzer again found herself reeling. Schnitzer immediately went to work posting a negative spin on any site that mentioned the story. Most intelligent site Admins saw through Schnitzer's relentless efforts to trash the story especially after checking traffic stats which revealed Schnitzer's posts were originating from a Mexican ISP.

At that point, Schnitzer decided to take matters into her own hands and set out to make TV Guide's CSI Miami forum all her own. For quite some time, Dojo and others have tried in vein to understand why their posts were being summarily deleted; posts that cast a positive stance on David Caruso or his hit TV show, CSI Miami.

After experiencing first hand the exact same frustrations on IMDb, we are informing our readers that it appears that Schnitzer has managed to weasel herself a position as moderator of TV Guide's CSI: Miami forum. With Dave Flores' departure earlier this year, a chink in TV Guide's otherwise impenetrable armor was created.

Schnitzer seized on an opportunity to exercise dominance at TV Guide. We don't yet know how she did it, but we are certain that she prevailed upon TPTB who granted her request to moderate the CSI Miami forum. It is clear that TV Guide's own administrators are not behind the ceaseless deletions which only occur when Schnitzer herself is on-line. If TV Guide only wanted one point of view, opposing viewpoints would have had their screen names canceled and i.p. addresses banned long ago. Something Schnitzer is currently unable to do.

If and when this situation is resolved, Schnitzer will be on the prowl for a new Board to spam. That is if she has enough time to locate a new one before Mexican law enforcement cuff her and haul her in pursuant to Judge Boehler's latest warrant.

David Caruso - TV Guide Sinks to an All-Time Low

No surprise here. When I read the Fox News article about TV Guide snubbing Tim Russert in the wake of his untimely death, I wasn't shocked. Although TV Guide had ample time to make the Tim Russert tragedy their cover story, they instead went with a story showcasing Denise Richards, a reality TV star of questionable talent.

Keep in mind that this is the exact same publication that provides David Caruso's fugitive Austrian stalker, Gabriele Huber**, with a safe haven on their website where she is given virtually free reign to wage her hate campaign against the actor. Not only does Gabriele Huber (who posts as "Horatiolover") maintain a blog on TV Guide's website, she uses TV Guide's community forums to publish derogatory and disparaging comments to promote her obsessive dislike of both the actor and his hit television show, CSI Miami.

Roger Friedman of Fox News summed up TV Guide's decision to run with the Denise Richards' story as follows:

"If you’re under a certain age you might not believe this, but the pocket sized journal was once a powerhouse in publishing. But with many different owners, and the stupid idea to make it as big as every other magazine, the poor Guide has suffered. It may have a circulation of 3 million, but no one cares about it anymore.
The Russert incident cements this. The new editor, Debra Birnbaum, 37, came to TV Guide from Life & Style, one of the cheaper and more sensational of the celebrity supermarket tabloids. It was her decision, I’m told by sources, to put Richards on the cover, fluffed up in big hair and a miniskirt. The headline reads: "Reality TV Attacks!"

In reality, however, the Richards story is not about TV at all, but an opportunity to put a tabloid celebrity on the cover. Birnbaum has evidently been handed a mandate by new parent company owner Macrovision Solutions Corporation to goose up what they think is a staid operation so they can sell the print part of the magazine business. I’m told — and it’s been reported in the New York Times — that Macrovision thinks it can somehow do that and hold on to the TV Guide Web site. Good luck."

I haven't bought this publication in years and in light of this recent debacle, I doubt that I ever will. In spite of scores of complaints about Gabriele's TVGuide.com pseudonym "Horatiolover", the website has turned a blind eye to the entire situation advising people who post there to simply use an "ignore" feature. Perhaps, if TV Guide would do the prudent thing and ban a woman who has not only stalked and threatened to murder an American actor but fled her homeland to avoid prosecution, then TV Guide could regain some credibility. Add the Tim Russert snub to the mix and it's highly unlikely.

** Gabriele Huber remains at large wanted for threatening to murder David Caruso. She is armed and considered to be extremely dangerous. Do not attempt to apprehend this woman. Contact your local FBI or Austria's Bundeskriminalamt at +43-(0)1-531 26-0.

David Caruso - Gabriele Huber Spams TVGuide.com

Why the sudden uproar? Gabriele Huber has been spamming TVGuide.com for years now and TVGuide has always looked the other way. This is certainly nothing new. Anytime I tried to out Gabriele Huber (who posts under the primary pseudonym "Horatiolover") I was immediately and summarily deleted. Except for an occasional visit, I all but ceased going to that site.

Last summer after Gabriele Huber fled to avoid prosecution the first time, I pointed this fact out on TVGuide identifying "Horatiolover" as Caruso's indicted stalker. Someone associated with TV Guide named David (last name forgotten and/or misplaced) responded by deleting my comment and remarking "take it elsewhere" And I did! Thank you TVGuide for letting the world know that your online site aids and abets a known celebrity stalker who is on the lam for threatening to murder David Caruso. Following is a piece titled "David Caruso's Stalker SPAMS TVGuide Site" in its entirety that I ran here on February 23, 2008 citing TVGuide as a stalker-friendly site:

"The TVGuide.com website is brimming with the very latest information and updates for television shows aired across America. Unfortunately, the website also has some dark areas haunted by none other than David Caruso's Nazi stalker. Here she identifies herself as "horatiolover" and maintains not only a blog but a running battle for the last comment on this site's CSI Miami Message Board. The Nazi stalker skulks in the shadows of this Board waiting to post derogatory responses to any comment about David Caruso. She's obviously under the false impression that Internet surfers are either too stupid, too lazy or perhaps both to read anything other than the last comment posted on any given topic."Horatiolover's Blog"is simply another spoke in her elaborate wheel of Internet contrivances designed to disgrace David Caruso. Every Tuesday, until recently, the Nazi stalker updated her "Horatiolover" blog with a negative review of the previous night's episode of CSI Miami. Here is a sample of the ongoing negativity posted by "horatiolover":“CSI Miami is a perfectly created illusion. And with that we neither mean the acting nor the story lines. I daresay, CSI Miami is the only show that could be produced during the WGA strike - since they don't need writers for the cr** they show us week after week.”If someone posted anything remotely positive disagreeing with the stalker's review, she automatically deleted their comment. Once the stalker discovered that there were no comments that she could post which agreed with her weekly disapproval of the show, she quickly executed Plan B. Employing her now famous ruse of conversing with like-minded posters, she invented identities to give the illusion that someone, anyone, agreed with her. Thus, "Southernbelle98" and "Natsim" were born.Fans, not to be outdone, quickly learned to circumvent the Nazi stalker's domination of TV Guide's CSI Miami blogs and moved in droves to the Message Board where they could enjoy diverse conversations about the show. The Nazi stalker lost her capability to do away with comments that she didn't find to her liking. No delete key was enabled on the Message Board. In fact, other writers joined in and posted fair and balanced reviews of the show each week.This sent the stalker into a tailspin. People had stopped reading her TV Guide blog and fans were viewing and commenting elsewhere, namely on the Message Board. Not to be outdone, the stalker began posting negative reviews on the Message Board. Still, there were no takers. Next she invaded the comments section of Javlin's CSI Miami reviews and began commenting skirmishes. Each and every comment posted was met with a negative post by "horatiolover", "southernbelle98", "natsim" or the stalker's name du jour.Complaints to the moderators of this site seem to have fallen on deaf ears. Numerous fans have notified the moderators about who and more importantly, what "Horatiolover" really is. Much to the fans' chagrin, TV Guide has done nothing. When fans took it upon themselves to reveal who the stalker was in the comments section, TV Guide summarily deleted anything they saw as argumentative.Rarely, has TV Guide ever deleted anything posted by the known Nazi stalker. As I have stated before, David Caruso is not everyone's cup of tea. That is no excuse TV Guide! Knowing what these mods know, why does TV Guide continue to provide a "safe harbor" for this indicted Austrian stalker? Do they not understand the magnitude of the situation? This woman has threatened to murder David Caruso! She has also threatened his companion and his two-year old toddler. What does it take to convince TV Guide?If you visit TVGuide.com to post on the CSI Miami message board, do so at your own risk. The mods here tend to side with the indicted Austrian stalker. Why, is any one's guess."

Obviously nothing has changed and nothing ever will. When Gabriele Huber first sought revenge against David Caruso for rejecting her, she was the only game in town on the Internet. New sites welcomed her with open arms. Later as fans found these sites once dominated by Huber, they challenged her ridiculous and antagonistic views to no avail. Many were deleted and Huber was allowed to continue unabated. Could Steve Bochco be one of this TVGuide.com's investors?

Boycott IMDb - Site Promotes Hatred of David Caruso

I should have known better. Of all people I, a professed stalker hunter, ventured back onto IMDb's David Caruso Message Board last night after discovering the stalker's latest Internet rampage against Caruso and his co-star Emily Proctor. And although the stalker has not completely abandoned her failed rumor about Caruso and his companion, she is attempting to launch a replacement rumor. This new rumor in fact is one that she tried to breathe life into before and involves the stalker's claims that Caruso and Proctor are having problems on the CSI: Miami set. NOT TRUE, ABSOLUTELY NOT TRUE. http://www.csifiles.com/interviews/emily_procter2.shtml

I fled IMDb (dubbed the "Internet's Malicious Deception Business") months ago when my posts and those of other Caruso fans were summarily deleted for no other reason than they expressed opposing viewpoints to the stalker's latest deceptions. Am I a glutton for punishment? Knowing that my comments and those of other staunch Caruso supporters are hastily deleted, why would I return?

Back when this site was in its infancy ANYONE, including an indicted celebrity stalker, could sign up and be given moderating capabilities. When the stalker discovered this loophole, she was first in line to seek and be granted a Moderator position on the David Caruso Forum. When fans descended here about 6 months ago to defend Caruso against the stalker's wild and salacious rumors, their comments were routinely deleted. Like TVGuide's site, complaints to the site owners fell on deaf ears and were virtually ignored.

IMDb's David Caruso Message Board has evolved into a killing ground for fans and a safe haven for a moderating stalker. The stalker posts under nearly 10 different names (Sks97, CSI Mfan, Puppeteer67, Miamilover, Dixiebabe, KitKatClub, Black Fire, and Guta53) Post a comment that disagrees or even deigns to question that of the stalker and you will be deleted. It's as simple and as blatant as that. The indicted Austrian stalker wields her dominance here and LIBELING DAVID CARUSO is the name of her game.

Last night, the stalker started this new thread: David Caruso VS Emily Procter 2 The following comment to her own thread is the stalker's latest effort to start yet another salacious untrue rumor involving David Caruso:

By Sks97 (the Indicted Austrian Stalker):

The article appeared just at the right time. Writers' strike is over, everyone goes back to work - it is about high time to do some much needed PR.(http://www.csifiles.com/interviews/emily_procter2.shtml) Emiliy Procter does what she does best - she chats about this and that. Her role. The show. The cast etc. ALL very positive, of course. Everything is fine.They like each other 24/7....blah, blah, blah.... One is almost tempted to stop reading and turn to something else .......until Emiliy Procter mentions David Caruso and their scenes together - or better the LACK of it. Now Procter goes into an overdrive. She gushes how much fun David Caruso is to work with. One can't shake the impression that she is desperately trying to convince people that everything is okay (between them). However, the harder she tries the less believeable she becomes. People have been complaining about the characters' - Duquesne/Horatio - drifting apart. Little to no interaction. What started out as "a dream team" in 2002 has faded into something grey in 2008. The writers seem to avoid scenes between Procter/Caruso. Is it because they were told to do so because Caruso and Procter don't get along too well? Is David Caruso back to his bad old habits again? Some behavior patterns never die no matter how hard you try to bury them. David Caruso has had (or still has) stormy private times. He dumped his girlfriend for a Miami Nightclub Executive Did he take some of the emotional baggage to work - thus alienating Procter? Someone recently wrote it is high time for David and Emily to put differences/egos aside and start acting like responsible grown up people. Agreed. However, it always takes two to tango. What if one of them - David Caruso - actually likes it the way it is and has no inclination whatesoever to change anything?

The following opposing comments were posted:

"You are full of it. You make crap up all the time. I saw that interveiw too and she did not go into overdrive talking about him. She was very sincere. How do you sleep at night? I'm sure just fine, because people like you feel no guilt or remose."

by sarakanne 13 hours ago (Sat Mar 1 2008)

"The person posting as SKS97 is Caruso's real life stalker and she is on a hate rampage across the Internet. This garbage about Caruso and Liza HAS NEVER been proven and Vixen seems to think if she says it enough, then it becomes the truth. Sooner or later Caruso and his lawyers are going to say ENOUGH and she's going to find herself a defendant in a Libel suit."

The above message WAS deleted by an administrator NAMELY THE STALKER

by pjh1955 13 hours ago (Sat Mar 1 2008)
"Yeah, I know. I saw the similaries some time ago, so when you and others also started to noticed...I knew it wasn't just me. BTW, David does talk about the time he spent with his family during the writers strike, and how enjoyable that was to have the extra family time. It didn't sound to me like there was a split."

by sarakanne 13 hours ago (Sat Mar 1 2008)

"They are not split. If you would like to post on a fan-friendly site, try the David Caruso Forum at Topix or CBS' CSI Miami Board. We would love to have you."

The above message WAS deleted by an administrator NAMELY THE STALKER

And ALL comment wars must end with the stalker getting in the last post:

by SKS67 (the indicted Austrian stalker
"He just said that "I had a great time." He didn't say with WHOM. Caruso dumped Liza - that was just a matter of time."

Thanks IMDb (Internet's Malicious Deception Business) for reminding me why I stopped going to your site in the first place.
