[

specialk, how did you know Jeana/Margaret/ Maggie? did you know her in Chiang Mai or Hawaii? Have you had any contact with her since she has been arrested?

I knew her in Hawaii. She has a girl the same age as mine. they were born on two months apart in 1980. We go way back. No, I haven't been able to speak with her, although I would love to.

why hava'nt you gone to see Jeanna? I'm sure if you go way back then she would love to see you. :o

I live in the USA, rolleyes, you should go back and read my other intry's, and see that Jeanna shot the father of my three beautiful. now grown up, children.

Sorry specialk didn't realise you lived in the USA but as you said in your earlier posts, he was talented but never used those talents for anyting good, your story must be hard to tell, and no one can even start to imagine what you and many others have gone through at the hands of Daniel. And as you stated earlier who knows what happens when a mind finally snaps.

There are a lot of children out there who are affected by this and my heart goes out to them all

Lets try and avoid the off-topic abuse shall we?

what makes you think that abuse isn't part of this?????? It's what led Jeanna to this drastic measure, and many of us that knew and lived with Dubie will forever be haunted by his abuse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You misunderstand, I am not talking about Dubie or Jeanna, but about members abusing other members with name calling. Terms like "moron" when someone doesn't agree with another are unacceptable on this forum and are against the rules.

Just a simple reminder to all members to follow the rules when posting.

When you do, could you also include who produced, directed and edited the "film" and a pic of the cover ?

Be interesting to see if this is a professional job, or a hand-held video camera, home-movie type cheapie production.

The DVD can be summed up in two words “World Peace” It’s simply about people setting aside their religious differences and be at peace. The celebrities Ted Turner, Linda Gray, Linda Evans etc were at the United Nations Conferences and Summits or at the World Council of Religious Leaders in Bangkok in 2002. They all talked about World peace. The reason the celebrities did not put the video as a credit, I got the sense they were just doing a interview at the convention. It may have been as an interview for the video but no questions were asked, it was just a 30 second interview of the celebrity speaking.

The quality of the film was good. The editing was moderate to some sections even below par

Whatever happens here could just react to any of us, Karma interacts with humans reactions. Awareness of consequences avoids confliction being proven here. Wasn’t their stranded siblings are innocence. Punters can say & laughs to any degrees.

This is a plea for anyone out there to help me get in touch with FELICIA. I am know as Kari Dubie, but my name is Karen Davis. My daughter is Calista, your half sister. my e-mail is [email protected] and phone is 360 3522587. We love and miss you very much. I miss your mom more than you could know. Now is the time to reconnect. Love, Karen

Felicia Dubie is in this film "Souls at Bay" She is listed as the U.S. Delegate-Peace Child International and also a Delegate for the Millennium Young People's Congress USA

Out of over 100 interviews, only with these two interviews, you’ll find the same background/stage area in the film. The flowers used on the set are very unique. That’s why I notice.

Also it was mention before that Daniel owned a spa. Was this it? If so, they may know where Felicia is.

the World Council of Religious Leaders in Bangkok in 2002....remember that one. :o

Purely by co-incidence I was in Bangkok that week and again by co-incid i spent a morning during the conference down at our local wat in Sam Prac discussing it with the wee head monk.(sitting on the floor drinking tea)

I hadnt taken too much notice (good athiest..like)but he wanted to discuss it as well as UK politics..and kept going on about what a good idea it was that all the differernt religeous outfits,Hindus,Janes,Papes Prods,Muslims and lots of those Swammis with the Yogi beards from India.... got together and.... good for Bangers...etc....well he is a monk.

Anyway re: the conference.. seem to remember that it was well covered by lots of media groups and it would be very easy to do a Taped Video recording of the show,dub ( should that be dubie ) a voice over and suddenly you have turned it into a "Blockbuster"....please come back.. John Ford ...all is forgiven. :D ...its no more than THAT.....Francis Coppula it aint.......(evil pure evil...Apoc Now :D )

Anyway seems we have picked up a lot of new members /posters.....cant be bad.

According to history J.C only had 2 kids and one wife.....and as we all know he truly was the ...wot did John Wayne say?.in the film....but St Dubie has had.. how many...?

I though that in earlier postings 10-20 seemed about right but maybe we will need a new abacus.

Any news/anything yet from Geri?...... :D

Onuma's alias was/is Jade Yoshino. Not sure how it got morphed into Jade Z (unless he had another alias). Haven't heard anyword on his possible whereabouts, yet.

So, there was a conference. Dubie & company do some interviews with some of the celebrity attendees, then slice/edit/paste together a film. They then promote that film as Starring/Featuring those celebrities.

Little wonder no one has heard of it. Major lawsuits would have nailed Dubie & company had they tried to show this in North America.

Was there a credit to "Maria Del Rey" for the song “World of Peace” that she supposedly wrote for the film ?

(Reminds me of that Eddy Murphy/Steve Martin movie Bowfinger)

I would be curious to know if there is any link between the jadeavassociates trading on e-Bay since April 2004 selling make-up CDs and Jon Onuma. Jadeavassociates is a pretty strange name. It would be a very strange coincidence if it had no assocation with the jadeavassociates credited in the DVD. The fact that the trader is located in Hawai is also interesting as that is apparently the last known address for Jon Onuma aka Jade Yoshino.

Yes she is given credit. Says it was written and performed for this film. She is interviewed but she talks about "this conference" She does not mention "Souls at Bay" or her singing the song.

A number of music artist including Enigma with Sadeness is also given credit.

The Music Rights Consultant is Rik Lawrence

Hi Sunbelt. The Parmarth site is where I first came across that name. When I googled it the only hit was to the eBay seller. The DVD is further confirmation that 'Jade' is connected to that name. Seems likely with the unusual name and the common link to Hawaii that the eBay site might be connected. What the heck, I will write the seller and ask him/her and let you know what I hear.

I agree, the odds point to it being him is by the product he sells is a DVD, the seller is from Honolulu, Hawaii and the name.

Wonder what his reply will be?

Interesting again, as I searched Maria Del Rey's discography, and all she's ever done is some childrens music. No record of her ever doing a song named "World of Peace". Surprised she wouldn't have mentioned the song during her "interview". :o

Canadian journalist shot dead by girlfriend in Chiang Mai

Get real folks, this is murder and should, and hopefully will be treated as such. No matter what the guy did wrong in his life, he didn't deserve to get shot 3 times, and not by an jealous ex-GF. Sorry bout the kids, but she deserves everything she gets Murder is murder, even if the shooter isn't named Somchai and lost his face.

Finally starting to open up........... :D and a few more "facts"...?

American millionaire shot dead by ex-companion

Staff Reporter Chaing Mai Mail

On July 2, police officers at Chiang Mai Police Station were informed that an American had been shot opposite the Whole Earth Restaurant, on Sri Don Chai Road near the Night Bazaar area. He was not killed immediately, but died later in hospital.

He was identified as George Patrick Dubie “Daniel”, 56, an American citizen and who had been shot in the chest and left arm.

Pratchaporn Monpeng, 30, the Thai wife of the deceased American informed the police that they had lived together for seven years, residing at a house in Hang Dong district, Chiang Mai. Before the fatal shooting, Daniel told her that Margaret ‘Gina’ Crane, 48, his former companion, arranged to meet him at the Whole Earth Restaurant on Sri Don Chai Road to discuss a private matter.

Witnesses in the restaurant told the police that they had heard the couple arguing, after which they walked out to the parking area.

The American hit the woman and threatened her with a pistol, but she grabbed theweapon.

Daniel ran to the opposite side of the road, but she followed him and fired the weapon in his direction. She then got into a car and drove off.

At the same time that the incident was taking place, Pratchaporn was waiting for Daniel at the Starbucks Coffee Shop on the Night Bazaar and received a phone call that her husband had been shot.

She went to the scene and followed the ambulance to the hospital.

Police officers immediately broadcast an All Points Bulletin (APB) for the vehicle. Police at Pa Tan Bridge noticed the woman’s car and observed the female driver get out and throw what looked like a pistol into the river. She returned to her car and drove off at high speed with police officers in pursuit.

They finally managed to stop her in front of Weera Panich Co. on Chiang Mai-Lampang Road, Tambon Fah Ham.

A witness at the scene of the shooting identifies Ms Crane as the person who shot Daniel Dubie.

Officers took her into custody, but when questioned, initially the woman denied everything. Eventually, she confessed that she committed the crime in a fit of fury. Ms Crane told police that there had been a scuffle when Daniel dropped the gun, but she grabbed it before he could and chased him across the street where she fired the gun.

Sineeporn Phantawong, Daniel’s personal lawyer and close friend said that Daniel owned many businesses in the U.S.A.

He was also an advisor to the United Nations (UN) and a special news reporter of a foreign news agency.

He was also involved with many organizations in the US providing support to those unfortunate people involved in the Tsunami catastrophe.

He had planned to invest one billion baht in land and a home stay business in Chiang Mai and Phuket.

He visited Thailand a couple of times a year and told officers that Daniel had been threatened many times by his former Ms Crane.

From the investigation, police officers focused on the quarrel, which had accusations of adultery and violence.

One of witnesses said that Daniel took care of six children.

He had a house in Palm Spring Place Village in Muang Chiang Mai. Previously, they had often argued.

Until this visit, Daniel had never visited his Ms Crane. She became furious which led to the fatal shooting. :o

yes I am afraid this woman should have done her homework and realised that the old PMT and stress et al doesnt work in Thailand

maybe she could've tried this number on a sympathetic court in another country but here it is pathetic and it dont work

Hopefully

she has ruined the life of many and sicko or not she deserves to be off the street as this is unacceptable behaviour and her kids now have to live with this legacy

so get the**edited for abusive content***into a hospital or a prison asap

Visits Chiangnai a couple of times a year, claims his presonal lawer, but he had lived together with

Pratchaporn Monpeng for seven years, residing at a house in Hang Dong district. I'm surprised at the inconsistancies in the reports.

Did you actually read the post before yours? He pulled out a gun, they fought, she got it, he ran (not such a big man when the gun is being waved at him), she pursued and shot him. Can't call it premeditated, or did she predict all the events in some kind of premenstrual vodoo thing?

I don't often get shocked by a post, your one did that.

tourleadersi-Not defending the person who made those pretty obnoxious comments, but at this point I think it is too early to know who actually brought the gun, etc. Just about every story out there in the press contains contradictions and information at odds with the information in other stories. I think I pointed it out earlier, but it bears mentioning again. So many 'facts' in this case are probably not 'facts.' Just look at the thread title. It looks now like he wasn't Canadian, he wasn't a journalist, and he wasn't shot by his girlfriend. About the only rock solid evidence I have seen so far is that 1. He was shot to death, and 2. It occured in Chiang Mai.

Fair point qualtrough. The facts certainly seem to be about as solid as a chocolate fireguard. Just can't believe someone can make such statements.... Takes all sorts I suppose.

well there does seem to be another fact in that she stalked him

(they fought she got the gun - oh come on - get real - did you see the size of the guy) leave this one open as witness credibility needs to be sustained -

she is sick and needs to be off the streets - she killed someone - and in turn ruined many lives - see the pic of the grieving widow

shocked or not by my comments

I am just sick to death of do gooders that get these sicko's off on a sympathy defence -

A few points, Mr Black Arm Band-

the idea that "she stalked him" is not a fact but simply someone else's opinion that you have taken on and now represent as "fact"

re the gun: again your idea about the scenario is based on the idea that physical size has to win out. What if the guy tripped on an infamous Chiang Mai pavement, and dropped his gun, huh?

we do not know whether Dubie's Thai girlfriend was his "wife" or not, but it's nice that you do feel moved by pics of her grieving, and I do agree with you that many lives have been affected by this killing.

In case you aren't aware the woman who shot Dubie, Margaret/Jeana Crane, is already "off the streets" in jail, awaiting trial. Some of us are able to feel sympathy for her position and to try to imagine how we might feel if we had done such a thing. That does not mean that we want to pre-judge events and try to intervene in the court process. As your post shows, we know very little about what really happened, so

"Don't judge a person in their darkest hour" as another member said elsewhere. :o

Blackjack did you know Daniel or Jeanna for that matter, it seems that you believe everything you read in the news papers (fact or not).

You need to read posts further back and then you may realise that this guy was no saint and that he has hurt a lot of poeple in his passed and even maybe in his time in chiang mai.

You also don't know anything about what he may have done to Jeanna and her children, read the posts by specialk and also some of the links that members have found relating to this guy.

What she did was wrong but don't judge her until you actually know some facts.
