VFAF LEGAL STATEMENT RE: COURT ORDER received filed against Butch Conz– Statement from Jared Craig national VP and legal counsel of VFAF:


VFAF LEGAL STATEMENT RE: COURT ORDER – Statement from Jared Craig national VP and legal counsel of VFAF:

Today Stan Fitzgerald received a Cobb County Georgia superior court order of protection against STALKER Mr. Edward Conz aka Butch Conz from North Carolina who has been maliciously impersonating VFAF Veterans for America First. Legally known as an injunction and commonly referred to as a restraining order to be served on Edward Conz aka Butch Conz.

Mr. Conz lists his Veterans for America First website with a board of non-veterans consisting of Butch Conz, Eileen Conz and Margaret Ackiss AKA Margo. This entity exists for the sole purpose of trolling, intimidating and character destruction of Stan Fitzgerald and Veterans for America First http://VFAF.US.

In the great state of Georgia, these proceedings are not sealed. Fake tears, fake exhibits, and fraud on the court will not be hidden behind a court seal. The order issued by the Court today, the forthcoming trial, transcripts, and evidence will all be made public—along with the names and evidence of those who acted as third parties on behalf of Mr. Conz.
The court reviewed the petition, asked for testimony and reviewed 21 exhibits and found the following.

Mr. Fitzgerald has been the focus of systematic harassment, intimidation, and stalking by the defendant—online, via social media, through the U.S. Postal Service, and through third-party associates of Mr. Conz. The Court found that these communications lacked any justification whatsoever and were intended solely for the purpose of stalking. These actions were meant to threaten, harass, and intimidate Mr. Fitzgerald, his wife, and his senior citizen mother.

The Court found that Mr. Conz threatened Mr. Fitzgerald with violence and the use of a firearm. Based on these documented threats (with exhibits also authenticated by third parties), along with Mr. Conz’s prior criminal history involving firearms in 2015 and his recent arrest for gun-related physical violence in April 2024, the Court determined that Mr. Fitzgerald has a reasonable fear for his safety, the safety of his family and home in Cobb County, Georgia, and the safety of his Georgia business.

The Court found that Mr. Conz threatened to mail intimidation letters and carried out that threat by sending them to his neighbors in Cobb County, Georgia; his friends and associates in Cobb County, including elected officials and Georgia State GOP First Vice Chair Salleigh Grubbs; and his neighbors in Jacksonville, Florida.

The Court found that Edward Conz has impersonated both the national VFAF , Georgia VFAF (He named Angie Wong President in GA) and the North Carolina State Chapter of VFAF to further his systematic personal attack on Stan Fitzgerald , his wife and elderly mother.

The Court found that Eileen Conz has continuously spread false allegations about Mr Fitzgerald’s personal business, and political activity, online and to third parties in person.

The Court reviewed exhibits and heard testimony, finding that— in addition to the above-referenced petition— the following facts occurred in connection with Mr. Fitzgerald’s activity as a whistleblower.

As we disclose this whistleblower activity, it is important to note that all individuals Mr. Fitzgerald reported on are political public figures. We are not making any factual assertions that they committed crimes; such findings are the responsibility of the appropriate authorities.

Again, these proceedings are not sealed. As a matter of public record, the Court found it necessary to be informed of the whistleblower activity and the related police reports that were filed. These whistleblower disclosures are now part of the public record and form part of the basis for why Stan Fitzgerald was granted a protective order. They will be open for examination at the forthcoming trial, which will also be part of the public record.

The Court after hearing the following details on whistleblowing ON THE RECORD, INSTRUCTED STAN FITZGERALD TO DELIVER TODAY'S COURT-SIGNED PROTECTIVE ORDER TO ALL LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES THAT MR. FITZGERALD MADE REPORTS TO.

Mr. Stan Fitzgerald was acting as a whistleblower and filed a police report in Coweta County, Georgia, concerning Angie Wong, a known associate of Butch Conz. The Coweta County Police Department report is dated August 3, 2023 (Case #2308000118 | GA 0380000) and documents an alleged felony theft by deception, as recorded by Investigator McGuffey.

The report states, in part, the following: “Angie Wong created a contract for selling media buys (airtime on networks) to New Noah Consulting for $9,000 per month, with $4,000 designated as profit. Angie Wong allegedly diverted $2,000 to her own business interests to pay for her personal media airtime. $5,000 per month was to be paid to Joshua Delano, a media booker from Texas.” Mr. Fitzgerald possesses a legally recorded call with Mr. Delano in which he confirms how Wong allegedly padded the deal for her own benefit. The police report further documents Ms. Wong’s alleged attempt to misrepresent terms to both sides of a potential $40,000 per month agreement, in an effort to personally benefit from the scheme. Investigator McGuffey noted the complexity of the alleged fraud and raised concerns regarding jurisdiction.

Personal Note (Not a court statement): Police reports are public record and do not establish guilt or innocence; however, they do establish dated documentation of statements and evidence. Note the date here—8/3/23—as it predates the Palm Beach lawsuit alleging Stan Fitzgerald misappropriated funds, it predates the Daily Mail hit piece on Fitzgerald, and it predates the conspiracy theory being spread by Butch Conz and his third-party associates regarding alleged grift by Fitzgerald or by the authorized VFAF and L-Strategies.

This is relevant to the hit piece by Mother Jones reporter Dan Freeman, on now  White House correspondent John Fredericks, with written proof from Dan to both myself and Stan that Angie Wong was the source. Dan wanted to review the bank statements of L-Strategies and the false affidavit of Patrick Collis, which benefited the story’s source, but he stated on audio that he didn’t want to “burn the source.” Again, there is written proof of this on my personal Twitter feed, noting that Dan Freeman of Mother Jones—a left-wing Trump hater—had more integrity than Debbie Dooley and Bill Simon regarding this conspiracy about L-Strategies.

Mr. Stan Fitzgerald was acting as a whistleblower and filed a police report with the Cobb County, Georgia Police Department, dated February 22, 2024 (Case #24-012779 | GA 0330200), pertaining to Angie Wong, an associate of Mr. Conz. Officer Miller documented in the report that on March 26, 2023, Angie Wong In Fact posted the following statement: “The only way to understand the left is think like a psycho ex-girlfriend, the kind that slashes your tires then sets your car on fire, sends you 200 text messages after midnight, fantasizes every day about your destruction, trolls everyone in your circles and doxes your family.” The report further states: “In another post from a different Twitter account believed to be controlled by Wong, a picture of a female with a gun was posted.” Mr. Fitzgerald stated that he believes Ms. Wong is encouraging violence toward him and his family through her messages. He further reported that he has been doxed multiple times by Ms. Wong and submitted 18 pages of documentation detailing these incidents and other similar occurrences involving Ms. Wong and others.

Personal Note (Not a court statement from today): Police reports are public records and do not establish guilt or innocence; however, they do provide dated documentation of statements and evidence. Notably, the date referenced here predates any false reports alleging that Stan Fitzgerald was stalking anyone. Additionally, Cobb County instructed Mr. Fitzgerald to seek a restraining order. Attorney Jason Smith later made oral arguments in Ms. Wong’s own Palm Beach case seeking a protective order. During that proceeding, Attorney Smith presented evidence that a fictitious social media account known as @ExposingVFAF was allegedly controlled by Angie Wong. That account had contacted Cobb County GOP Chair Salleigh Grubbs, referencing closed-door hearings and specific information that only Ms. Wong could have known. After this was established in court, the @ExposingVFAF account was deleted.

Mr. Stan Fitzgerald was acting as a whistleblower in December 2024 when he filed a complaint with the Virginia Department of Criminal Justice alleging that Butch Conz, Patrick Collis, and Angie Wong were conspiring to commit fraud on the court in a Miami proceeding before Judge Klukas. The Court confirmed that the Virginia Department of Criminal Justice notified Mr. Fitzgerald in writing that the investigation (Case #2024-1001) entered adjudication on May 2, 2025, and remains actively in adjudication.

Personal Note (Not a court statement from today): Police reports are public records and do not establish guilt or innocence. They do, however, provide dated documentation of statements and evidence.

Apparently, two individuals in Georgia who sent bulk emails did not understand the meaning of “adjudication” when they assisted in discrediting the testimony of a whistleblower and a third-party witness. People can easily look up the definition of adjudication in criminal investigations.

Mr. Stan Fitzgerald was acting as a whistleblower, supplying the FBI with evidence regarding multiple alleged activities conducted by Conz, Collis, and Wong, including a timeline of the alleged fraud on the court in Miami. The Court acknowledged, in fact, two-way communications between Stan Fitzgerald and the FBI. The timeline sent to the FBI is unsealed and made part of the public record.

Personal Note, supplying the FBI with evidence is not an indication of guilt or innocence.

Mr. Stan Fitzgerald was acting as a whistleblower when he filed a report with the Paulding County Sheriff’s Department documenting, in fact, that Butch Conz mailed letters to intimidate his senior mother and elected officials, including Salleigh Grubbs, and that Conz’s fingerprints are on the contents. The evidence is currently being held pending adjudication.

The Court also reviewed the following exhibits and found the following

Butch Conz texted Patrick Collis and IN FACT threatened him to accuse Stan Fitzgerald of activities Angie Wong carried out in an affidavit, with testimony that followed, to benefit Angie Wong.

Butch Conz IN FACT cloned the VFAF Website.

Butch Conz IN FACT referred to black VFAF board members as “N”

Debbie Dooley IN FACT mass emailed leaked sealed information from the Miami Court in the Angie Wong matter on appeal to 10,000 Georgia politically active people creating reputation destruction of whistle blower witnesses Stan Fitzgerald and a non-public figure Devonta Sullivan acting as a fact finder in same whistleblower investigations.

We will be sending Ms Dooley a subpoena as an expected hostile witness where she will be ordered to answer under oath who supplied her with sealed court information , why she created a false affidavit for Angie Wong pertaining to Stan Fitzgerald, if she can identify the owner of the fictional account of Lois Lane
@Agent_411
 and may other questions for public record.

I can confirm that there is no such term in the Florida court system as “Under Investigation for violating a restraining order” along with no violation occurred and that conspiracy theory is sourced to private emails Debbie Dooley turned over to these thugs who doxed the home address of Trump admin officials.

Butch Conz IN FACT assisted In creating a false report that Stan Fitzgerald was in Miami to slash tires or visit a Miami business office when he was IN FACT  In Tampa.

Teddy Daniels, a candidate for Sheriff in North Carolina, in fact falsely accused Stan Fitzgerald of grift after posing for a photo with Angie Wong and tagging Wong and Butch Conz in the false accusation.

The Court found, in fact, that the accusation was based on a website Daniels himself owned—not Fitzgerald—and that Daniels was, in fact, endorsed by Butch Conz and the imposter VFAF after making the orchestrated false public statement.

As this conspiracy has occurred for the last 16 months we will have hundreds of exhibits, numerous witnesses and third-party experts at trial, all of which will be public record.

In a matter unrelated to today’s order, Margaret “Margo” Ackiss, a board member of the imposter VFAF, was previously served with a cease and desist.

Margo also, in fact, made a widely circulated false statement online—as a social media influencer—claiming that Stan Fitzgerald was a sex offender.

Ackiss is not protected by Mr. Fitzgerald’s public figure status when she made this defamatory statement aimed at discrediting the authorized Veterans for America First, which she is maliciously impersonating.

In addition to a protective order Mr Conz was also served today with a notice to appear in a Georgia Courtroom on October 8th 2025 where he will be facing sanctions for not turning over court ordered written communications between himself and Angie Wong, Patrick Collis , Teddy Daniels, Vlad Lemets, Margo Ackiss and others.

Mr Fitzgerald has never made any comments about the Miami Court Lawfare other than passing a polygraph and after today's court proceedings the findings speak for themselves, any inquiries should be directed to myself on Stans behalf regarding the Stalking by Butch Conz and his associates, Miami Lawfare and our forthcoming seeking of Justice through the court process.

The above constitutes the official statement of VFAF Legal, presented with proper decorum.

On a personal note, I owe several people a response to written inquiries AKA threats made to myself and Stan Fitzgerald.

Bill Simon, a useless troll on the political vine in Georgia, like Ms. Dooley, repeatedly sends bulk emails aimed at character destruction. Bill Simon—also known as Louis Tully from Ghostbusters as far as “…. with ears” —in defense of Ms. Dooley’s mass emails containing leaked information from sealed court records in Florida, asked me if I was sleeping during law school when “pro se” was taught, implying that Debbie could act as a lawyer to obtain and distribute sealed records. The only thing law school teaches about pro se is that we win.

Bill, when we meet in court and you have to explain to a Judge what Angie Wong told you about sealed records in Miami , why the fictitious Lois Lane account quotes you saying “Stan the flim fam man” while conducting the criminal act of sharing portions of sealed records on X tagging our GOP officials.

Bill you can rate my legal services on Yelp.

Teddy Daniels, when you texted me and Stan with Patrick Collis looped in, threatening to go to the FBI with his fake affidavit, do not bother the FBI already has it.

Teddy when you texted Stan with Butch Conz looped in threating to accuse him of grift pertaining to a website that you are too dumb to remember that you own and paid Josh for, to which Butch wrote LOL.

Thank you for confirming your end of the conspiracy with Butch.

Teddy when you posed with Angie Wong to make the false accusations against Stan and proclaim that the Butch imposter group with no Veterans was the authentic VFAF , an insult to the many highly decorated Veterans on our board, to which Butch called N and tried to get vets fired from their employment, when I tried to clarify that was your website in X, you wrote “Fuck You Jared”

Teddy I appreciate the offer but I do not find you attractive.

Debby about now Devonta Sullivan has probably stopped doing the Trump YMCA Dance and reworked it to the ACLU dance.
