Jonathan Lee Riches @JLRINVESTIGATES has reached a new low.
He took a fun, lighthearted video posted by a high school's official page—a completely normal student interview clip meant for campus entertainment—and twisted it into a sinister false narrative.
JLR is actively ripping videos featuring minors off school pages and falsely claiming physical misconduct just to generate outrage and views around the Nancy Guthrie case. Weaponizing innocent high school students to frame people for clout isn't "investigating"—it’s dangerous, defamatory harassment.
Claims like this from @JLRINVESTIGATES are completely shameless.
1. You aren't their friend: Traveling to Moscow, Idaho, hanging around outside victim spaces, and shoving a camera in people's faces as a so called ‘content creator’ isn't a 'friendship' or 'eating dinner together.'
2. You're using their trauma for engagement: You took a public statement posted by the Goncalves family regarding actual cease-and-desist letters and attached yourself to it to farm views and pretend you have inside access.
3. The track record: Anyone who knows your history knows you have a long track record of jumping onto high-profile crime cases, fabricating personal involvement, and exploiting grieving families for content.
Stop using a grieving family's legal battles to boost your own social media page.He is a SICK LIAR!
@Fightthefib25 Complaining about 'calling names' while aggressively stalking my page daily is rich. If you put half this much energy into finding a hobby outside of me, you'd actually accomplish something.
A JLR supporter crying about 'harassment' while defending a crew that constantly stalks and harasses people is peak comedy. This coming from the same camp where Fatass Alex literally camps out in front of people's houses. The lack of self-awareness is truly staggering.
The entire JLR fan club is just old retired hags sipping three-liter box wine at noon and taking a break from screaming at retail cashiers over expired coupons to file restraining orders.
Trouble just seems to find him... 🤷
Just remember, folks, this is a man who has been convicted of crimes, including multiple felonies over the last 40 years. He has not managed to go an entire decade without a conviction or being in prison or on probation. Yet he doesn't seek trouble... it just shows up on his doorstep. 🙄
Below is a video with just two examples. Honestly, I could make a much longer video. But, I'm editing this on my phone. My laptop blew up the other day and I am shopping for a new one. So, this scrappy little bit will do.
@JLRINVESTIGATES is an absolute clown!! This scam artist went from filing thousands of delusional, troll lawsuits in federal prison to morphing into a dangerous stalker and parasite in the true-crime community.
In 2022 this creep targeted Carroll Circuit Court Judge Benjamin Diener during the Delphi murders case just to farm clicks, views, and engagement. JLR straight-up doxxed the judge by broadcasting his personal family photos, home details, and private information on YouTube—including going after the judge's children, because this dangerous stalker seems to love targeting kids to get a reaction.
His reckless stalker behavior and targeted harassment campaign literally forced Judge Diener to feel unsafe and recuse himself from the case. Let’s call it what it is: desperate, sociopathic behavior from a convicted fraudster who is a dangerous stalker, not an investigator, and has zero business hiding behind a camera. When are platforms finally going to permanently ban this absolute menace?
He’s complaining about streaming for 225 hours in September and not getting paid for it. He’s gotta be lying about it actually being 225 hours because that would be 8 hours of streaming everyday, but you know he just can’t stop lying!!!
He definitely sat there for 12 hours rage reporting her from burner accounts just to cope with getting his own channel stripped by YouTube. He has nothing better to do.
The irony of @JLRINVESTIGATES playing community watchdog and attempting to expose others for policy violations, only to cry a river when YouTube strips his own monetization for harassment and doxxing!
Bro literally livestreamed for 225 hours just to get clapped by AdSense because actions have consequences. Maybe spend less time obsessing over everyone else's channel and more time reading the terms of service. You reap what you sow! 💀📉
@Extd_utterance I just know he pulled a 12-hour shift of rage-reporting from burner accounts just to cope with getting his own bag stripped by YouTube. The projection is astronomical 💀
@JLRINVESTIGATES Why don't you tell it as it is?
You and your cronies reported her and made fake copyright claims.
Interesting, since you whined about how unfair it was when it was done to you.
@JLRINVESTIGATES is talking about 'spinoffs' and 'popular characters' like his entire identity isn't just loitering on the internet waiting for attention.
Clinical-grade delusion. He needs to check into a psychiatric ward instead of a livestream.
JLR is GUILTY of putting his hands on Magnolia.He straight up LIED to his STANS aka Stupid Azz Fans and they believed him as usual.The SOB wasn't even present in the courtroom,but was outside in his car.Why was he there if he didn't have to be there in person?🤔
@JLRINVESTIGATES loves to play the internet tough guy and self-proclaimed investigator, but his online persona completely crumbles the second real legal consequences catch up to him. The delusion is staggering as he takes to X to whine that people are making a big scandal out of his legal fallout, trying to brush it off as a simple no-contest disorderly conduct where he just paid a fine and claims there was no victim. What a pathetic, cowardly way to spin getting legally shackled by a court.
Let's look at the actual reality behind his spineless deflection. He is desperately trying to reduce a multi-year protective order to a minor nuisance, which is the ultimate cope for someone utterly terrified of facing what he actually did. While he's crying on social media about weirdos talking about him, an Arkansas judge wasn't buying his act and handed down a strict three-year no-contact protection order protecting Magnolia following severe allegations tied to the Travis Decker case in Washington state. Court documents prove he was formally served by a deputy bailiff, completely shattering his fake untouchable narrative.
He can delete tweets, block users, and spin whatever pathetic fairy tale he wants to his echo chamber, but no amount of online posturing erases a court-mandated protection order. Calling himself an investigator is rich when the only thing he's successfully investigating is how to dodge accountability for his own toxic behavior.
The hypocrisy is unreal. @JLRINVESTIGATES is on X complaining about being "stalked" and "harassed" by someone making videos about his movements—while he spends every single day doing the exact same thing to families in crisis.
For months, JLR has made a spectacle out of high-profile cases like the Guthrie family. He travels across state lines, camps outside private residences, streams continuously on Kick, makes videos exploiting victims of crime and relentlessly harasses family members for clicks and clout.
Claiming to be the victim of "obsessive tracking" while making a career out of invading the privacy of grieving and harassed families is peak projection. You can’t build an audience on relentless online and real-world harassment and then play the victim when the spotlight turns back on you. 🤡
@JLRINVESTIGATES Taking a plea deal on a domestic battery charge to get it reduced to disorderly conduct isn't "being innocent," JLR—it's doing damage control. You weren't cleared; you dodged trial because the state had the evidence. If taken to trial you would have lost and been sent to jail. Innocent people don’t take plea deals. You are a coward.Trying to spin a court-ordered fine and a downgraded charge as a total win while pretending there was "no victim" is peak delusion, especially when the paperwork literally has restitution clauses built right into it.
You broke your no-contact order within 24 hours, and you keep posting this trash to sic your unhinged fans onto Magnolia while hiding behind multiple fake accounts to drop nasty comments on her page. This guy beat women—he didn't just beat Magnolia once, but multiple times, to the point where she had to get reconstruction surgery on her nose. You are the most disgusting human being on the planet, and you shouldn't even have a platform. You took the easy way out to avoid accountability, and trying to rewrite history online doesn't change the docket.
@JLRINVESTIGATES is doxing @Julez_TrueCrime putting her & her family in immediate physical danger from both unhinged guilters & her abusive ex. This is vile behavior from JLR whom also abuses women. This needs to be mass reported and JLR banned.
