Terry Stipp (Terry Sholes): The Unregistered Offender and Identity Thief Behind Harassment

Terry Cavitalo

For years, Tricia Griffith, the infamous armchair sleuth behind the Websleuths forum, along with her “associates” have relentlessly targeted Toni Ingram and myself for supporting her. Also my boyfriend Joe too. And before I continue, I just want to say it is important to clarify that the Tricia Griffith associated with Websleuths is not the same person as Tricia Griffith, the current CEO of Progressive Insurance. This distinction is crucial to avoid any confusion between the two individuals because Websleuths Tricia is a loser and a grifter; whereas, Progressive Tricia is a successful leader and a woman of stature. Anyways, the harassment I endured from Websleuths Tricia stems from my dissenting opinion on the case of Morgan Ingram, leading to a campaign of defamation and impersonation that has crossed ethical boundaries.

Among those involved is Terry Cavitalo, known by aliases Terry Stipp and Terry Sholes. She’s also using a plethora of pseudonyms including PaulaChase, Chased2Death, MartyCaresDoU, Lana Kane, PizzedPenguins, WakandaPearl, AnnaKarina, AnonymousKitty, MarcieSWogan, MarcieSwerenWogan, WildlifeCamera, MikePattersonn, MyDeathSpace3, ToniIngramm, QueenBDavunt, HoeValo, and SarahAfashar. It’s important to also state that she has other names and pseudonyms too; however, these are her active accounts. Authorities have identified her as a key player in this harassment and has personally told me directly that this person is behind a lot of it. Recently, I received compelling evidence linking not only Griffith and her accomplice Mayra Martinez (MayraMM, another degenerate who I’ve addressed previously) to these malicious activities, but also implicating Stipp. Previously operating under the pseudonym Windchime, Stipp is a registered sex offender from Florida under the name Terry Cavitalo with a troubling history, including serious offenses involving her own underage son in the early 1990s. This woman has been in trouble with the law and has a troubling history with a dark, labyrinthine series of issues. The fact she’s an armchair investigator is quite shocking. 

Ms. Stipp (or Sholes) has engaged in a disturbing pattern of behavior, including issuing threats against me right here on my blog and impersonating me to contact individuals within my network, including members of my own family. While I firmly believe in the right to free speech, their actions have escalated to a level that is both criminal and psychologically manipulative. It’s evil what these sofa sleuths are doing and it is imperative that I express my thoughts on this matter, as I have the right to do so here on my blog. I’m protected by the United States Constitution under the first amendment and thereby hold the right to defend myself from the untruths perpetuated by these subhuman sofa sleuths. Also, you are entitled to the truth.


Interestingly, although Stipp claims to reside in Florida, her digital footprint reveals multiple IP addresses across various locations including Alabama, Maryland, Utah, Texas, and even Michigan, suggesting a deliberate attempt to obfuscate her identity while maliciously trolling me. The same inconsistency applies to Websleuths Tricia Griffith, further highlighting their unhinged pattern of behavior. Their inability to tolerate differing perspectives on crime cases has led them to resort to slander and impersonation as tools of harassment which is disturbing. I know this firsthand as they are doing this to me and I have proof of their misconduct. 


The FBI is currently investigating these online activities and I am committed to ensuring that they are fully informed of the ongoing harassment. As this situation unfolds, I will continue to document all interactions and evidence, creating a comprehensive paper trail that will be submitted to the appropriate authorities. I firmly believe and have evidence to support my claims. Additionally, I know I am not the only victim of their harassment. Others have also exposed Websleuths Tricia for her tumultuous online history, explosive behavior, and her treatment of individuals who hold differing opinions on crime cases that go beyond the evident grift.


I also want to state that this is not just a personal battle; it is a broader issue of accountability in online communities. As these unhinged underbellies persist in their malicious campaign against me because I have a different opinion on a crime case, the evidence against them continues to grow and I will continue to expose their lies and schemes here on blog every single time I receive any kind of libelous comment from them. As an American citizen, I am entitled to this right, including the right to hold and express my own opinions on crime cases. 


Terry—I respectfully request that you cease your deceptive behavior and impersonation of myself and of Toni Ingram. I do not know you, Toni does not know you, and we both find it perplexing that we are both subjects of your attention and rage. Leave my boyfriend Joe alone too. He does not know you. I urge you to abandon this charade and stop lying about us and stop impersonating us. I am left wondering why you have chosen to target me and spread lies about me thus I’ll never know. I’m guessing for your true crime forum administrator friend.


RIP Morgan Ingram, friends of Morgan Ingram have exposed Terry on their Facebook page. William K. Murtaugh, a true crime blogger who uses the pseudonym MurtWitnessOne has also exposed her. The authors of the Keenan Vanginkel blog have also exposed her. Others have also exposed her online activities. 


Terry is allegedly impersonating former criminal prosecutor Marcie Wogan or Marcie Sweren from Baltimore, along with the same faction of wannabe crime fighters that includes Tricia Griffith and a woman named Stacy Christensen. This suggests that these individuals have been engaged in this behavior for some time and have done the same things to others they attempt to silence. They represent the same detrimental archetypes that resist accepting differing viewpoints, believing that interfering in criminal cases somehow enriches their lives, likely due to their own dissatisfaction. Communal narcissism or just angry and ego-driven? It raises the question of whether they ever leave their homes, as these toxic individuals appear deeply entrenched in their narrow perspectives.


I don't feel sympathy for them. Why? Because they engage in such behavior. Is it acceptable to lie about someone simply because they hold a different opinion on a criminal case? Is it right to reach out to their family and friends to spread falsehoods? No. These individuals are troubled and in need of mental health assistance. No one is above the law. Especially this toxic, ego driven armchair detective Terry Stipp. Please do not harass Terry. If anything, pity and pray for this woman. It’s clear she is unstable and very sick.


If you or someone you know has experienced similar harassment online, it is crucial to document everything and report it to the authorities as this is what I’m doing and will continue to do until they cease their harassment. Together, we can stand against cyberbullying and protect our right to express differing opinions without fear of retaliation.

I am so sorry Sarah for the harassment you've experienced. Tricia from Websleuths and her associates have a troubling track record of targeting individuals with differing opinions. Their conduct is deeply troubling. Terry should be held accountable for her cybercrimes and her actions in 1992. Such behavior reflects the lowest standards of decency. They are the lowest of the low.

Terry Stipp, also known as Terry Cavitalo or Terry Sholes, is a prominent associate of Tricia on Websleuths, demonstrating unwavering loyalty to the infamous crime grifter. Unfortunately, she has been known to engage in impersonation and harassment, which is deeply concerning. This behavior is indicative of a broader pattern among certain individuals, including Mayra Martinez, who also has been involved in deceptive practices and misinformation. They have obscured the truth in criminal cases, impersonated victims and their families, and propagated false narratives while portraying themselves as victims of harassment. Such actions are not only unethical, but also detrimental to the integrity of discussions surrounding these cases. I commend your resolve in defending yourself and I reject the unfounded allegations that these individuals have spread about you. Keep shining bright.

These disgusting armchair detectives are so awful. The cases and lives they destroyed are awful.

I’m starting to wonder if these armchair sleuths are behind the recent suicide of an animal activist who took her own life because of cyberbullying. The same pseudonyms or identities used to bully you seem to match those who targeted her.

Terry is quite a few people on Websleuths. She’s been known to help Trasha and do her dirty work. Even when it was exposed she had a record for lewd acts, other people exposed she was still on Websleuths payroll. Chris McDonough exposed everything eventually and there hasn’t been any mention of anything since.

Another big ole fat slob. Keep exposing these people for who they are.

Absolutely horrible what they are doing. They are the type to mass report blogs and use black hat SEO to destroy reputations. I’ve watched this group for years bully and vilify innocent people for sharing a different opinion or view on crime cases.

I’ve always felt strongly that it was Windchime. I think Windchime is also Boots. I’m certain some of those pseudonym psychos are Tricia herself too with Terry. Tricia interviewed me years ago for her YouTube live. I’m ashamed I ever went on it. She’s evil trash.

Is Tricia still impersonating Marcie Wogan? The individual in the recording I heard exhibited speech patterns of Tricia. Meth?

She also uses Boots, Wildlife Camera, Bermstalker, Tinkerbell, MyBelle, and SillyBilly. She shares some of those accounts with Tricia. William Murtaugh and Chris McDonough both exposed this on two separate occasions.
