THE ARCHITECTURE OF FRAUD UPON THE COURT

A Forensic Record of Procedural Deception, Ghostwritten Evidence, and the Cover-Up in Colorado’s 20th Judicial District.


LEGAL NOTICE:

 Every assertion, chronological sequence, and quotation on this page is anchored directly to the official court docket, sworn transcripts, verified XMP metadata, and unredacted billing ledgers in Case Nos. 2022DR30458, 2025CV80, and 2025CV118. This archive is maintained pursuant to the public’s right to transparency regarding the integrity of the judicial process.

THE ARCHITECT: CAROL GLASSMAN, ESQ.

Role: Lead Opposing Counsel | ALPS Insured


The 2023 Predicate Fraud: To bypass a binding January 31, 2023 Joint Expert Stipulation limiting the parties to a single neutral expert, Ms. Glassman orchestrated an illicit "shadow expert" pipeline. Unredacted billing ledgers reveal that Ms. Glassman instructed her paralegal to ghostwrite and format the expert reports for Jay Freedberg. To introduce these unvetted reports without triggering a Daubert reliability hearing, Ms. Glassman affirmatively misrepresented Mr. Freedberg’s status to the trial judge, successfully classifying him as a "regular witness" with "no report."


She then extracted a $15,000 attorney fee award from the Petitioner by eliciting testimony that her client was drowning in personal debt, despite admitting in a private July 14, 2023 email that the Petitioner’s company was the "only source of money to pay their bills."


The 2025 Cover-Up: When Petitioner recovered the unredacted ledgers proving her paralegal drafted the expert reports, Ms. Glassman weaponized the court’s backlog to secure unconstitutional gag orders. To prevent the illicit expert from being cross-examined at a June 11, 2025 hearing, she billed time to research a "Rule 41 Dismissal" days in advance, executing a premeditated Rule 50 blockade to abruptly terminate the hearing. During the October 7, 2025 remand hearing, rather than correct the record regarding her fabricated fees, she hired an outside expert (Lee Strickler) to testify her fees were "reasonable," actively concealing the unredacted ledgers from her own expert.


THE RECORD REALITY: SIDE-BY-SIDE CONTRADICTIONS


The Expert Evasion:


What she told the Trial Judge (August 2023): Asserted Freedberg was "Just a regular -- Witness" with "no report serving as the necessary basis for anything up to now."


What she told the Civil Court (2025): Claimed the reports underwent "proper judicial scrutiny" to earn absolute witness immunity.


The "Second Valuation" Gaslighting:

What she told the Trial Judge (August 2023):


 "Don't forget that the reason why we had a second valuation and a rebuttal is because of the disagreement of the first. Mr. Bell requested, through Mr. Gaddis, the second valuation."


The Record Reality: A fabricated narrative. The record proves Petitioner's counsel explicitly told Glassman in writing: "I do oppose Mr. Harkness opining on my client’s income." zz


 Furthermore, civil defense counsel admitted to DORA that Glassman covertly retained the "rebuttal" expert in 2022 months before the joint expert report was even drafted.


Violations Documented: Colo. RPC 3.3 (Candor toward the Tribunal); Colo. RPC 8.4(c) (Dishonesty, Fraud, Deceit); C.R.C.P. 16.2(e) & 26.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


THE SHADOW EXPERT: JAY FREEDBERG, CPA (AND SIX CONSULTING)


Role: The Illicit "Rebuttal" Witness


The 2023 Predicate Fraud: Mr. Freedberg allowed his name, credentials, and firm identity to be used to launder ghostwritten financial reports reverse-engineered to hit specific, inflated income targets. He utilized the financial data of a private corporation (Tool Studios, LLC) without the authorization of its sole owner and allowed his reports to be slipped into the record in violation of the Court's single-expert mandate.


The 2025 Cover-Up: To defend the 2023 fraud in a new hearing, an April 16, 2025 "Analysis of Charles Bell's Income" report was filed bearing his name. This report was filed "Serve Only" to hide it from the Court's docket, contained no Rule 26 certification, and featured a digital signature pixel-for-pixel identical to his 2023 signature (Exhibit DDX), confirming it was recycled without fresh endorsement. He subsequently hid behind civil defense counsel, refusing to confirm under oath whether he authored or endorsed the reports.


THE RECORD REALITY: SIDE-BY-SIDE CONTRADICTIONS

The "Rebuttal" Lie to the Court (2023): Introduced as a reactive "rebuttal" expert to counter a May 2023 disagreement.


The Written Confession to DORA (April 2025): His own attorney admitted to the state regulatory board that Glassman covertly retained him in 2022—proving the ambush was premeditated long before any "rebuttal" was necessary.


Violations Documented: Colorado Accountancy Law (Misleading use of firm identities); C.R.E. 702 & 901 (Failure to authenticate expert methodology).


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THE INSIDER: ALYSON VARVEL


Role: Co-Petitioner | W-2 Employee of Tool Studios

The 2023 Predicate Fraud: Ms. Varvel participated in the financial gaslighting of the Court. She took the stand to testify that she was burdened by crippling personal legal debt to secure a fee award, despite acting as the financial officer of Petitioner's company and knowing corporate funds had paid the bills. She withheld Tool Studios' corporate financial records to prevent the Petitioner from tracking the illicit payments made to Freedberg.


The 2025 Cover-Up: Ms. Varvel filed mathematically false Sworn Financial Statements to sustain her maintenance awards. On September 23, 2025, she swore under penalty of perjury that Petitioner’s gross income was $266,203.00, intentionally conflating W-2 wages with corporate pass-through income, despite possessing verified W-2s proving his actual wages were $84,083. She repeated this 316% inflation to the 

Court on October 7, 2025.


THE RECORD REALITY: SIDE-BY-SIDE CONTRADICTIONS


Her Sworn Trial Narrative (2023): Claimed over $91,000 in personal legal debt burden.

Her Attorney's Private Admission (July 14, 2023): Carol Glassman emailed, "The money in Tool Studios is the only source of money to pay their bills. This has been the status quo throughout the marriage."


2 days after trail still having access to the company money she wired 10k out of her account, into per personal account. There is still more then 20k unaccountable and she still refuses to hnad over any of the receipts.


Violations Documented: 

Colo. RPC 3.3(a)(3) (Offering false evidence); C.R.S. § 7-80-408 (Wrongful withholding of corporate records); C.R.C.P. 16.2(e).


 I have shown Grace and restraint, and recently I offered to drop it all and all she needed to do was to repeat for the record what she told others. 


When confronted about the Binding Joint Expert Stipulation....


"I found the witness disclosure that was emailed to Charles's attorney on June 16, 2023.

In this disclosure you will see that the third witness is listed as Jay Freedberg.

Charles most definitely would have been given a copy of this from his attorney, who at that time, was Kathryn Goff."


"The Trojan Horse"

The problem is the witness disclosure had him assigned to me, a

nd she just admited to knowing of the skem ad fact, I was not sure of for a very long time. 


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THE "BINARY FRAUD" ARCHITECTS: ADAM WIENS & RYAN DUNN

Role: Civil Defense Counsel for Jay Freedberg (Lewis Brisbois)

The 2025 Cover-Up: Wiens and Dunn executed the "Binary Fraud," constructing a wall of silence to protect their client. They weaponized the trial court's backlog to dismiss civil fraud claims against Freedberg, while knowing the underlying domestic orders were procured through deceit.

⚖️ THE RECORD REALITY: SIDE-BY-SIDE CONTRADICTIONS (THE BINARY FRAUD)

What they told the Civil Court (Wallet Protection): Claimed Freedberg was a "Stipulated Expert" whose report earned absolute witness immunity through "proper judicial scrutiny."

What they told DORA (License Protection): Admitted to the Board of Accountancy that the foundational June 16, 2023 expert disclosure bypassing the court order was merely a "typographical mistake describing Mr. Freedberg as 'Petitioner’s' retained expert as opposed to 'Co-Petitioner’s' retained expert."

The Metadata Destruction: On June 15, 2023—the exact day before this "typographical mistake" was filed—Ms. Glassman billed 1.0 hour for: "Telephone conference with Jay Freedberg; Revise Witness Disclosures." A typographical error does not require a one-hour phone call with the expert to draft.

Violations Documented: Colo. RPC 3.3(a) (Presenting mutually exclusive facts to different tribunals); Colo. RPC 8.3(a) (Failure to report known fraud).


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THE METADATA FORGERS: JOHN PALMERI & WILLIAM DEWEY

Role: Civil Malpractice Defense Counsel for Carol Glassman (Gordon & Rees)

The 2025 Cover-Up: Palmeri and Dewey transitioned from defending a client to actively participating in procedural forgery. To extract a $12,034 default fee award against a pro se litigant, Partner John Palmeri signed a sworn Certificate of Service claiming proper email delivery of a fee motion.

⚖️ THE RECORD REALITY: SIDE-BY-SIDE CONTRADICTIONS

The Sworn Service Claim: Claimed successful service, relying entirely on a "Status: 5.4.0 Relayed" Exchange Server log (an IT code that inherently means delivery failed or was unconfirmed).

The Metadata Reality: Native XMP metadata proves the document actually attached to that failed relay log was an unedited draft template requesting fees for an entirely unrelated client ("Mark Anthony Law").

Violations Documented: Colo. RPC 3.3 & 8.4(c) (Submission of fabricated service records); Intentional Acts Exclusion Trigger (Exposing ALPS Insurance to uninsurable liability).
