Seattle police: Extortion behind bizarre vandalism spree ‘No war is over until the enemy says it's over’
By Levi Pulkkinen, SEATTLEPI STAFF July 10, 2017
Issaquah resident James Henry Morrison is accused of undertaking a vandalism campaign against his ex-coworkers at Avalara, a Seattle tax management firm. Morrison, 46, has been charged with extortion.
A Seattle-area man accused of vandalizing his former coworkers’ homes and cars while demanding a $150,000 severance payment has been charged with extortion.
King County prosecutors claim Issaquah resident James Henry Morrison launched a terror campaign against his ex-coworkers at Avalara, a Seattle tax management firm. Morrison, 46, is alleged to have vandalized homes and sent menacing messages while demanding money from Avalara.
Investigators believe Morrison succeeded in a similar scheme targeting Wolters Kluwer. Morrison previously worked at the Dutch information services company’s Bellevue subsidiary, Pharmacy One.
According to police statements, that company paid Morrison $100,000 as part of a settlement agreement after defamatory graffiti appeared on several of his coworkers’ homes and cars. Morrison apparently caught a Wolters Kluwer private investigator placing a tracking device on his car. No evidence has been presented directly tying Morrison to that vandalism spree.
This time, though, investigators claim to have linked Morrison to the messages and graffiti. Writing in court papers, Senior Deputy Prosecutor Gary Ernsdorff said Morrison’s harassment was pervasive.
“For an eight-month period, Morrison created an environment of fear; no one knew where or when he’d attack,” Ernsdorff said in court documents. “Avalara has over 1,000 employees, and many more customers, all who were potential victims.”

Morrison worked only briefly for Avalara, though his short tenure didn’t stop him from demanding a large severance payout, Seattle Police Department Detective Christopher Young said in a statement to the court.
“When he was denied this money he launched a terror campaign against the company which involved covertly vandalizing the homes and cars of random employees in order to compel the company to pay him to stop,” Young said.
Morrison, who is currently jailed, was hired by Avalara in late June 2016 as a database administrator. He didn’t last long, leaving the company in early October.
According to charging papers, Morrison demanded a severance payment from Avalara, and threatened to be “an expensive ex-employee” if he was not paid off. Morrison is alleged to have threatened to “escalate” the matter when he was told he would not be paid.
“You are not the decision maker on closing the matter. I am,” Morrison said in an email to an Avalara attorney, according to charging papers. “I will be escalating this to others within your organization.”
Young said Morrison’s a vandalism and harassment campaign began in November.
Morrison is alleged to have painted the company name on homes and cars owned by several Avalara employees. Police recorded at least 14 incidents of vandalism thought to have been perpetrated by Morrison.

During the months-long spree, Morrison continued to demand a severance payment, Young said in court papers.
“No war is over until the enemy says it's over,” Morrison said in an email to an Avalara attorney, according to charging papers. “We may think it over, we may declare it over, but in fact, the enemy gets a vote. With that in mind, you should be fully aware that you do not get to declare this matter is closed.
“The resolution of this matter can only be reached by an agreement of both parties. The sooner you understand that the sooner we can begin negotiations.”
According to charging papers, Morrison traveled to North Carolina and vandalized homes of Avalara workers there.
Morrison was arrested June 29 at an Issaquah bank. He is alleged to have been setting up an account in expectation of a large payment.
Young noted that Morrison’s previous employer, Wolters Kluwer, had been subjected to a similar vandalism spree. Fliers describing the manager who fired Morrison as a child molester were circulated in his neighborhood.
Morrison remains jailed on $750,000 bail. He does not appear to have entered an initial plea.

A short summary of @WallStreetSilv, aka @Galactic_Trader aka Jim Lewis aka James Morrison
- Lied about being a “Merrill Lynch Trader” in his original account
- grew to 10k followers off that
- joined WSS after #silversqueeze
- immediately started pushing out other moderators
Ask yourself, would this guy have any issues opening Jim's iPhone with Face ID?
And why do they both live in Tampa?
And why did the caller ID shows “James Morrison” when @WallStreetSilv called?
It's ridiculous people think they aren't the same person. Idk what to tell you
Image
@WallStreetSilv To look up the case yourself, follow the instructions found in this article near the beginning
Note the case files are listed in reverse chronological order, so start at the bottom and work your way
@WallStreetSilv It's time to begin the next portion of reporting on this debacle.
Jim Lewis, aka James Morrison, aka @Galactic_Trader, aka @WallStreetSilv has a history of vandalism and extortion crossing several state boundaries
Image
It's very hard to decide where to begin, but we left off with instructions of how to look up the brutal sounding Florida domestic abuse case
If you search 'James Morrison' on you'll see a number of cases for 'James H Morrison'
Among the lawsuits ranging from unpaid credit cards to not paying his HOA, you'll see a child support case
Search this case number: 2019-DR-009240-O
Where you will find a woman's name 'Agnieska Morrison' this name is quite unique in the US and was critical to connecting cases
An address search on this name links Issaquah, WA
Also note the family name of ‘Rek’ for later
Another note to make at this point is that ‘James H Morrison’ has used multiple middle names
More commonly ‘Henry’ but he has also gone as ‘Hafele’ which is his original family name Image Now this connection to Issaquah, WA lead to this discovery of this article
Where 'James H Morrison' is vandalizing the property of his former coworkers to try and extort the company for
Now how do we know that this 'James H Morrison' is the same one as the Florida domestic abuse, financial lawsuits, and child support suit with Agnieszka?
There are multiple ways to verify this, first you can look it up on the king county court records website: Use this link:
Search this case number: 17-1-03115-8
Unfortunately, in King County you have to pay 25 cents per page whereas Orange County FL it's free
But I paid the $52 to unlock all documents pertaining to the case so you don't have
https://dja-prd-ecexap1.kingcounty.gov/?q=node/411&199355=911110
Here's is a snippet of one document in the case, at the bottom you will see his wife's name as well as one of his children's names, Colby, who is no longer a minor.
I have added the censorship of the other names, but they are public info Image
Facebook also provided further verification that this is indeed the same ‘James H Morrison’
See the profile below of the wife, with kids listed, one of which is Colby
Also note she has a post tagged with ‘Swedish Hospital’ in Issaquah
Image
Image
Image
Image
Now Colby is friends with a faceless account named ‘James Morrison’ who has only one friend, which is Colby. And he only has 2 likes, one of which is WallStreetSilver
Image
Image
Now let's get into some of the details of the damages and extortion
James got a job working for a company called 'Avalara', where he worked for just under 4 months before quitting
Upon leaving he demanded $150,000 of severance, despite the fact he quit
Image
He brought up a previous case, and showed evidence of checks from a company known as 'Wolters Kluwer' paying him $150,000 in severance, it would later be discovered he also extorted this firm
He demanded Avalara pay him otherwise "he can an expensive ex-Employee"
Very expensive
One month later he began the vandalism. Incidents 1 and 2 were spray painting the name 'Avalara' on 2 of his former coworkers' garage doors
He figured out where coworkers lived to go vandalize them
Redactions are mine to try and help these people move on
Image
On November 14th the legal department of Avalara told James he would not be getting severance
So he vandalized more, one more former coworker, and one customer of Avalara as well.
One on the garage again, and one on their white car
Image
Next, incidents 5, 6, and 7 occurred in December, when @Galactic_Trader spray painted "MAKE AVALARA GREAT AGAIN" on one home
spray painted another car, and another garage
Image
Incident #8 is where it starts to get very bad
If you're afraid to call 'Jim Lewis', aka 'James Morrison', aka @WallStreetSilv, aka @Galactic_Trader what he is, just know that on Christmas he spray painted accusations of "child rapist" on his former coworker's home
Image
@WallStreetSilv @Galactic_Trader Incident 9 was another spray painted car
Note we're into January now, this has been ongoing for months
Image
Incident #10 is yet another customer's garage vandalized
Image
Incident #11 was two more vehicles spray painted with 'Avalara'
Image
Incident #12 is yet another car spray painted
This one had a camera at least and Jim was nearly caught but the video was too poor quality
Image
Note the name "Wiggs" who he accused of being a child rapist, was his direct supervisor at Avalara
He also emailed in mid January:
"No war is over until the enemy says it is over.... the enemy gets a vote"
Image
It was a long time until incident #13, but when @Galactic_Trader visited his mother in NC, he continued his vandalism against employees located there
Here put paint on the home and "some unknown type of acid" on the husband's truck
Image
Incident #14 was also in NC, where he painted the door and sidewalk with 'Avalara'
Image
Now extending his vandalism to NC was @Galactic_Trader's mistake, this is where he got sloppy and what lead to his eventual arrest
This snippet is important because the second bullet shows his family name as "Hafele"
Remember that alternate middle name from earlier?
Image
@Galactic_Trader In June of 2017, now more than 8 months after he quit Avalara, James / Jim / @Galactic_Trader was arrested for his crimes
Image
@Galactic_Trader In case you think it couldn't get any crazier, this was his 2nd attempt to extort a company via vandalism, the other being in 2013
He was fired for performance and "rude and volatile behavior towards his coworkers"
My personal experience with @WallStreetSilv mirrors this
Image
In the 2013 vandalism streak, incident #1 from James was the manager who fired him
James spray painted 'rapist' on his garage and put up fliers around his neighborhood accruing him of being a 'child molester'
Image
Incident #2 he targeted a customer of the firm and spray painted "child rapist" on the garage
Image
Incident 3 he got yet another state involved, this time in MA he again made the rapist accusation by spray painting it on another customer's garage
Image
Incident 4 was in yet another state, NJ, with another customer
Image
His threats continued, even tracking down the family members of a poor HR lady
At this point @TwitterSafety I believe it is your responsibility to shut down @WallStreetSilv and @Galactic_Trader
James/Jim has shown high proclivity for violence, vandalism, and stalking
Image
@TwitterSafety @WallStreetSilv @Galactic_Trader Now here is an unfortunate part of the story, Wolters Kluwer hired private detectives to look into James, but ultimately they PAID HIM $100,000
Immediately after paying him off the vandalism stopped
Remember when I said to note Agnieska's family name of "Rek" earlier? Well...
Image
Here's the detective's conclusion from the Seattle case where he concludes that James Morrison is responsible for these crimes
Image
Some interesting notes on the warrant as well
Weight listed as 260 (for those complaining about '200' in the Florida case)
Also: JAMES WAS WORKING AT COSTCO
So much for being a 'Merrill Lynch Trader' as he claimed
Image
NOW THE PLEA
drumroll please....
James Morrison plead GUILTY to:
Extortion 1st degree, Extortion 2nd degree, and Violent Assault in the 3rd degree
Here we learn he assaulted a man in this process
And also tried to extort Nordstrom
Image
Image
The bail for the hearing was set at $750,000
Several victims came forward to speak in favor of the bail and express fear of James
He even purportedly registered domain names of employee names to Harrass them further
Check out the message of "tick tock tick tock tock"
Image
Note that the maximum sentence for this crimes would have been 41 months and/or fines up to $40,000
The state recommended 39 months, but served concurrently on the charges rather than consecutively
So in effect they recommended 15 months in prison
Image
More from the sentencing, James was ordered to pay restitution to victims
He was also compelled to do an anger management program
To me it doesn't seem that the program was very effective
Image
Image
He was banned from Nordstrom for 5 years
Meaning he only just got back the right to set foot in that store
Image
Just another piece of evidence connecting James H Morrison of WA with the one we know from FL
In the sentencing memo it says James plans to move to FL upon release
Image
Agnieska's letter pertaining to the sentencing hearing is quite sad to read, I definitely feel bad for the kids in the is situation
One more note to potentially connect to FL, the comments on the grades
Supposedly the topic that got the domestic abuse situation in FL started
Image
Just continuing to wrap things up, here is a screenshot using wayback machine of @Galactic_Trader before he came public as Jim Lewis
Note the claim he was a trader for Merrill Lynch
Image
This shouldn't even be in the top 100 reasons why these are the same people, but it's interesting to note the love of Lego profile pictures in the Morrison family
Agnieska also had a Lego profile picture on Facebook at one time
Image
Another tidbit,
In the end of the FL case, the son decided not to testify against his father in the end
As is common unfortunately in domestic abuse cases
But he mentioned going to Poland for a year
Notable connection because the high school listed for Agniezska is in Poland
Image
Image
More info proving that this is indeed @WallStreetSilv, not that we needed it. Keep it coming guys
Image
More verification of the events as they unfolded early on. Thank you sending it to me @matthew00306654
Made in April 2021 by one of the people pushed out early by Ivan and Jim
Very comprehensive, if she has a Twitter let me know so I can tag her!
@Matthew00306654 Looks like the original maker of this video was @WSStackers who now operates under @Fringe_Newz
Thank you! It's widely known that James is getting paid by junior miners. James in a pitch email said he has 26 companies under contract already
One public confirmation of this came from @MiningCatalyst who posted this article
Notice "WSS Ltd" listed at the bottom
He's a renowned wannabe Drake SoundCloud rapper https://x.com/ThatsLongFerMud/status/1621397574929227776 Known as “eye bee”
Here's the link for your enjoyment:
And yes, it appears hundreds of thousands of people have effectively been ‘duped’ to some degree by a SoundCloud rapper and an extortionist Costco https://on.soundcloud.com/V7wCz BOOM:
Further proof, this time visual
This was James' employee badge picture while at Avalara
This image was sent in an email to every Avalara employee to warn that he was very dangerous and to call the police immediately on sight of James
Image
I have also been offered explanation of how Nordstrom made its way into the case
James reportedly spray painted a single Nordstrom employee home and they folded immediately and paid him
Just like tons of companies prior
Avalara was simply the 1st to stand up
More details on the sentencing and jail time
Prosecution recommended 15 months, he was sentenced to the maximum concurrent sentence of 17 months
Reportedly got out in about 9 months
For those wondering It has now been over a week and it would appear that many junior mining cos are still in business with @WallStreetSilv
@EloroResources @AyaGoldSilver @gold_galantas @NewPacific_
No due diligence up front, and still not doing any it appears
Image
Image
Image
Image
@WallStreetSilv @EloroResources @AyaGoldSilver @gold_galantas @NewPacific_ Abra saw the light at least
https://x.com/mining_charts/status/1623700092778852353
I guess summa silver also appears to have lacked a due diligence process for sponsorships
@SummaSilver @GalenMcNamara

@SummaSilver @GalenMcNamara https://x.com/ThHappyHawaiian/status/1624103822359511041
In the end, at least at this point, I believe all of this to simply be a speed bump in the grift that is @WallStreetSilv
An update thread: https://x.com/ThHappyHawaiian/status/1624980067733348355
Just as momentum to expose James' and Ivan's grift appeared to be halting, the largest PM account yet has spoken out
Thank you to Peter for being brave enough to do so https://twitter.com/goldseek/status/1625119550122430464?s=20&t=Cv94wkFAC2JgtKIuKubLQg Unfortunately @EloroResources and @OCG_SilverGold both appear to also be working with WSS still

Another larger PM focused account had the bravery to speak out today thankfully

For those unfamiliar with the WallStreetBets Reddit politics of early 2021,
The owners of Reddit did intervene to remove the original creator of the subreddit after he returned and try to monetize and censor the sub
The mods who had worked with no personal gain got the keys
Image
Image
This is why WSB is successful, and is how a Reddit is supposed to operate
Subreddits aren't built to be centralized grifts like @WallStreetSilv created
Cleverly using a similar name and the same avatar to pretend to be an organic community like WSB, but something else entirely
6 weeks into this and @wallstreetsilv is still moving along like nothing happened, the censorship efforts appear to have worked
recent YT guests include big names like @gloomboomdoom, @GarethSoloway, and @garyswagner
I'm guessing because they aren't aware of who WSS is
@WallStreetSilv @gloomboomdoom @GarethSoloway @garyswagner Jim/James continues to run the twitter and contract with junior miners, but is clearly still associated with Ivan, WSS, and YT. The link is still prominently featured in the bio section of the WSS twitter
Image
Just throwing this conversation into the thread
@wallstreetsilv continues to thrive as there is little accountability in this space
And many think exposing someone's horrific crimes against against others is WORSE than actually doing those crimes
sad https://x.com/ThHappyHawaiian/status/1627790181079154690 Holy crap the grifting of @WallStreetSilv never stops
Selling access to private AMAs where a guy who put up flyers all over the city wrongfully accusing a man of being a child rapist will give you stock tips
And Elon is even promoting it
Image
Larry Lepard has unblocked me and I think read the thread now
Always up for reconciliation with good people, always thought it seemed like a misunderstanding
I've always respected @LawrenceLepard's dedication to sound money!
@LawrenceLepard @HycroftMining is a client it seems, @DianeG_CEO are you aware of @WallStreetSilv's history of extortion, stalking, physical assault, abuse, threats, vandalism, lies, and scamming?
I would assume no, otherwise I doubt you would be working with him, so thought you should know
Image
@LawrenceLepard @HycroftMining @DianeG_CEO @WallStreetSilv Ditto for @CassiarGold, @Silver_X_Mining, @Skyharbour_SYH, @silveroneinc

@LawrenceLepard @HycroftMining @DianeG_CEO @WallStreetSilv @CassiarGold @Silver_X_Mining @Skyharbour_SYH @silveroneinc A couple more on the client list @usgoldcorp and @dorecopper
James is grabbing lucrative promotion deals left and right it seems

@LawrenceLepard @HycroftMining @DianeG_CEO @WallStreetSilv @Silver_X_Mining @Skyharbour_SYH @silveroneinc @usgoldcorp @dorecopper
It appears that the subreddit has now changed control and @CEOvonGold is in control
@WallStreetSilv aka James Morrison still controls and continues to monetize twitter, YouTube, and other socials via junior mining ‘exposure’ contracts
But this is a big win here! https://x.com/CEOvonGold/status/1678816020448804871
@LawrenceLepard @HycroftMining @DianeG_CEO @WallStreetSilv @Silver_X_Mining @Skyharbour_SYH @silveroneinc @usgoldcorp @dorecopper @CEOvonGold In other news from what I can tell @profstonge has partnered with @WallStreetSilv and his videos are now being posted to their channel
Image
@LawrenceLepard @HycroftMining @DianeG_CEO @WallStreetSilv @Silver_X_Mining @Skyharbour_SYH @silveroneinc @usgoldcorp @dorecopper @CEOvonGold @profstonge James has now begun a lawsuit against the new owners of the WSS subreddit
For someone who keeps lying about having given up control of the WSS accounts he certainly seems quite involved still
https://www.reddit.com/r/Wallstreetsilver/comments/15m061j/lawsuit_wallstreetsilv_wants_a_trial_with_apes/ @LawrenceLepard @HycroftMining @DianeG_CEO @WallStreetSilv @Silver_X_Mining @Skyharbour_SYH @silveroneinc @usgoldcorp @dorecopper @CEOvonGold @profstonge Wow, the latest emails from James are insane
For him to get mad at someone “coming into his life uninvited” is absurd given his history
And nice to see he hasn’t changed a bit
This is a guy who has stalked and terrorized people all over the country “uninvited” for decades
Image
@LawrenceLepard @HycroftMining @DianeG_CEO @WallStreetSilv @Silver_X_Mining @Skyharbour_SYH @silveroneinc @usgoldcorp @CEOvonGold @profstonge James still making out like a bandit getting lucrative deals from junior mining cos
