Friday, November 20, 2015: More from the conversation with a close friend of Adriana Coronel Tenorio’s (AKA Adriana Howitt Coronel, Ari Coronel, Ari Coronel Tenorio, Ari Howitt, Ari Howitt Coronel). As any good interviewer would do, they ask some questions only they have the answers to to test the honesty of their subject. We sprinkled those types of questions throughout the conversation without this person knowing and this person answered every one 100% correctly. So…
Why was Isaias Palomeque (AKA Isaias Uzziel Palomeque, Isaias Palomeque Vergara, Project Manager at DJO Global) so eager to help Adriana move into all of those houses between 2008-2014? He was in love with her and did not have the good sense to see that he was being manipulated. Adriana and Maria Guadalupe spoke so badly of you as a father and as a violent threat to Adriana and Samantha. It was too easy.
So if I am so violent, why would Palomeque want to be on the wrong side of me? Call me crazy but if I were him I would steer clear of the guy whose home you just wrecked. What did he think he could do when Adriana cried wolf? For fuck sake, I saved him from getting his ass kicked by a 60-something year old man not long ago. Stupid is as stupid does with Isaias. You would have to ask him why he stayed involved with this.
At some point did an original thought ever enter the guy’s head that told him none of this with Adriana makes sense? All I know is that the more this went on, the more it became clear to the rest of us (Adriana’s friend’s) that you were nothing like they tried to portray you as. All of the hostility and all of the violence you have seen was all planned. And you never flinched. It was obvious all you wanted to do was spend time with Samantha. The sad part is Adriana chose to commit all these acts in front of Samantha too. The more you never reacted, the more that made Adriana and Maria Guadalupe hostile and hard to deal with. They were the hostile and violent ones. Not you.
OK, so the elephant in the room has to do with Adriana ambushing me and having me sent to La Mesa Prison for something I did not do back in August 2010. Up until that point there was never any mention of me abusing anyone. Before August 2010 Adriana tried to claim Palomeque was Samantha’s father. That was her defense for abducting Sam. Why did the ambush happen and whose idea was it to start this? All it takes is for one look to know who the father of Samantha is and it’s not Isaias. Adriana was so confident she was going to win the Supreme Court decision anyway that it never entered her mind that she would lose. To them, there was no way an American would have a chance at beating a Mexican in a Mexican court. It did not matter to them if they told the truth. When the decision came back in your favor, Adriana was incensed as was Maria Guadalupe (Maria Guadalupe Tenorio Toledano (AKA Lupita Tenorio, Marsha Tenorio)). I have never seen them so angry. Maria Guadalupe came up with the original plan to do something bad to you. Adriana did not want to go along with it but in the end she did. It was not hard to convince the lawyer to go along with it too.
The lawyer meaning Oscar Ivan Diaz Gomez? Yes.
What do you know about that day? I know Adriana was frustrated that you kept backing her into a corner trying to find a compromise to this situation. Nothing specific. Just that you were not buying her lies and excuses. You were making too much sense for her liking. She did not want to compromise. After the Supreme Court sided with you over her, everything changed. Until that day nobody ever heard that you were an angry or violent person. All of a sudden we heard that you beat up Axel. You tried to strangle Adriana and broke her neck. You beat up Maria Guadalupe. And when the police came you beat up several police officers. After the police arrested you, they handcuffed you to the back of a police pick up truck and drove you away. Adriana followed behind you video recording you in the back of the truck flipping you off every few seconds trying to get a reaction from you but you did not react. Adriana was angry when she heard you were able to pay money to leave the prison because they were hoping you would be there longer than you were.
That is the same story they tried to tell the criminal court. That I beat up Axel, her mother, strangled Adriana until I broke her neck and beat up several police officers with guns. And that is what Adriana was trying to tell her friends too. Some of us saw her within a few days after this day happened. Axel never said anything about you nor did he have any signs of being beaten up. Adriana was walking around just fine. Maria Guadalupe too. No sign of any injuries. The story was not being believed. We know the Tijuana Police. They would have just shot you the moment they could not handle you. Crooked or not. And all of this happened in front of Samantha and when Samantha tried to say something about that day, Adriana or Maria Guadalupe would interrupt her so she could not talk. It was clear something was not right with their story from the beginning.
Do you know what really happened that day? After we saw your website we went to the courts to investigate for ourselves. Things just did not make sense. We went to the court to see for ourselves hoping Adriana was telling the truth. We know what is on court record. In the court files. We know Adriana hit 2 cars trying to make sure her plan worked. We know Adriana and everyone else admitted to lying and filing a false police report against you. We know the police that ambushed you testified against Adriana and admitted to what they did. We know that the judge tried many times to convince Adriana to drop the case and save everyone time. We know your lawyers made Adriana literally sick in court under cross-examination and asked for a recess where she just took off and left the court. We know they changed their stories every time they were asked a question under oath. This is all in the court files. It sickens me Adriana did this to you. And Samantha was right there next to you when this went down which makes it worse.
That is a pretty good short version. Adriana did eventually drop the case, although it took 13-months. We saw that too. Pinche Ari.
Why did it take so long for Adriana to drop that criminal case when everything fell apart for her in such epic fashion in court? Because Adriana and Maria Guadalupe insisted that they could beat you with lies. They thought that as Mexicans they would automatically win because they were accusing an American of things in Mexico. The more that did not happen and the courts believed you, they more hostile they became. They let all that bad emotion rule their thinking. And they knew dragging out the case helped them in the short term because you could not use it against them in civil court until it was officially over. And by then they moved. Thinking they could hide from you rather than make a compromise.
Did anyone ever talk about what a bad idea it was to send me to prison for something I did not do? If so, what were those conversations like? Not that I know of. After you won that first Supreme Court decision, Adriana was beside herself with anger. To them, you being in prison or being dead was the solution to everything. I went along with it at the time not knowing any different. I never thought about questioning the consequences or the fairness to you or Samantha. Even after things fell apart for them in court.
Thus the other ambush attempts? Exactly. They were so angry at how much you were getting the best of them in their home country. Especially when you won that decision in the Supreme Court. They never forgot that.
This was never about me getting the best of anyone. This has always been about Samantha. She needs her Dad. Samantha is lucky to have you as a Dad.
True to form when Adriana fails big and does not learn from her mistakes, she has not really failed until she does it again. You must me referring to them trying to keep you detained in their house after Samantha birthday a couple years ago.
Yes. What do you know about that day? I don’t know much. We heard that you gave all the parents thank you cards for making Samantha’s birthday special. In the cards was the website address to the site you made explaining this situation. This was the ultimate humiliation for Adriana. She crafted this outward persona that everything was great in her life. That she was a great mom. That you and her were trying to work towards a compromise but it was hard because you were always working in San Diego. It did not make much sense at the time. The website filled in all of the holes in Adriana’s stories and put things in a different light. As far as them trying to hold you against your will in that house, they kept that close to themselves. Nobody not involved knew what they were planning.
So nobody talked about Palomeque and how he helped Adriana and Maria Guadalupe disable the garage door in the house the week after Samantha’s birthday a couple years ago and attempted to hold me against my will there while they called the police and tried to have me put in prison again? I did not find out about that until later. Originally they told police about the website and how hostile you became when they confronted you about it and that you broke the garage door. Samantha came to your defense and told them they were lying because she was there and remembers everything. They never mentioned it in front of Samantha again. Later on they told other friends that they were shocked you were able to get away without touching anyone and rendered their plan useless. They never got over the thank you cards. People who still believed in them were wondering why the thank you cards and website were creating such hostile feelings if everything you were saying was not true. A few people said they should just sue you for damages if they felt that strongly about you lying on the site.
Hahaha. Palomeque threatened me with that at one point. I told him to shut up and just do it, go for it if he feels that way. The site is not coming down until this is over. That him and I both know how suing me will go. Hahaha. I heard about that. The website is causing him problems with Adriana and at work. Isaias doesn’t have a leg to stand on. He did this to himself. He was out there trying to help Adriana do damage control. Lying his way through what happened with the thank you cards to the few people who still wanted to believe in Adriana. And when that did not work, Isaias helped them find another house in order to hide from you again. As you know.
Yeah, we walked up on them in the middle of that move. The court officials told them they had 3-days to report their new address, which she never did. Adriana was freaking out when you and the court people showed up that day. She had no intention of complying with the courts. It was Isaias’ idea to find a place that would be hard for you to get access too.
Ahhh. The gated community. Yes. They did not think you would be able to get past the gate.
That did not work very well for them. I told you, book smart and street stupid. All it did was buy Adriana some time. She knew you would find her eventually. This is when Adriana found the prospect of marrying Danny a good idea. Danny could help her get out of Mexico and away from you.
We will get into Danny Howitt (AKA Daniel Duncan Howitt, Elizabeth Farquhar Duncan, Kenneth Duncan) in a minute…
