    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

dude...browse about every 10 pages and it's pretty clear
 
Dude every 10 pages =roughly 60 pages, giving you about 30 seconds per page including loading the page on your computer. That is without allowing you time to think out a response and type it. Dude, I think it is pretty clear when it is put in context.

My thought exactly! A quick skim through and he summed it up perfectly?

Talk about speed reading. Evelyn Woods is tap dancing in heaven.

Where did the scan of the driver's license come from?
Did it actually come from Chris at some point, or was it acquired by other means?

The reason I ask is if that scan was sent to someone by Chris himself then everyone is acting on the assumption that it's actually him in the pic.
If the two Chris' are one and the same, and also a known forger of fake driver's licenses, I would think if you were creating a license for an identity that was committing illegal acts, then you'd probably not use your own photo on it if it was just for sending to someone via email.

So it there a reason to be absolutely certain that that is the person claiming to be Chris Johnson from TSE in the photo on the driver's license?

The pic of Chris Johnsons DL was given to myself from the detective that was working the case in the beggining.If everyone might have noticed that "rarepython" has been reading this thread for some time today.In my opinion the person in that pic in the white hat does look like Chris Johnson .I hope someone catches up with him before he takes off this time.

You bet ya, I was thinking the same thing, speed reader I guess.... :rolleyes:

I really could care less if he is a new Chris or an old Chris, I think he pretty much sucks regardless, just on the whole profit off the creation of more drugs thing. That a sure sign of a real scumbag in my book, and that is my honest opinion. We know what the machines he is creating is used for. As well as how many children are going to ruin their lives from a direct link to his garbage.

I believe Cassaci explained earlier that the guy with the white cap and shirt in the photo is currently incarcerated for dealing drugs.

If it is Johnson...it might explain his failure to appear in court considering they already have him in custody on an unrelated charge.

You guys are really sick. I didn't think this would turn into such a witch hunt and I'd be the brunt of your feelings on issues that pertain to my other businesses which aren't even relevant to snakes. I came on this forum to defend myself and explains myself as honestly and clearly as possible, but it has apparently become a bashing thread for many of you. For the people that have answered in a mature and appropriate manner I will do my best to reply in a speedy and concise manner. Anyone that is posting their random feelings on their position on drugs, or making commentary about my children or their upbringing will not illicit a response by me. It is immature, unfounded (since you do not know me as a person), and it is very much off topic.


With regards to my speedy post reply...you guys need to relax and put down the pitchforks...i skimmed over the thread and summed it up while I was responding...take a pill...I wasn't familiar with the guy...but the posting was pretty clear...so I asked if I had the jist of it...which apparently I did.

Chuck reading this persons responses (rare pythons) gave me a headache so i must have missed this part :D .Yea it might explain why Chris is unable to appear in court if he is in jail under another name.Just think you will not need to eat your shorts more then likely :rofl:
 
Chris do you think its ok to rape Africa of its gravid snakes? Why do you suppose we breed these animals in captivity? I would not spend a dime with you or the trash dealer that sold you those snakes. You've already based your business on lies by stealing other breeders photos. Here's a news flash, we are a close community and we don't people like you in business. What the hell do you need a genetics engineer for to hatch normal balls! Right! I hate liars and you are not even a good one!

Chris C Stated - Left To Right Names:
Kurt Covino (ex employee-currently a teacher at a local HS)
Carmen Tonellato (one of my best friends I did competitive sports with from age 10-18)
Christopher Casacci (Myself)
Daniel Casacci (my father who has always helped me with my business and been very supportive)
Jessica Skalarski (old neighbor and I my cashier for about a year awhile back. PS: I can't remember how to exactly spell her last name, it's been several years).
Michael Ashoon (I have to look up how to spell his last name, he was one of Carmens friends and helped me paint when I first got my old place setup. I really didn't know him that well and it was some time ago. Last I heard Carmen mentioned he got into some narcotics trouble and went to jail, but that was over a year ago..so right now I'm not sure.)

Alright. Photos.

Looking at the photos, i see slight resemblances in both guys that are shown from that group photo, but none that match exactly to the photo on TSE's "Drivers License"

First off, in TSE's DL, the ears do no stick out to the sides, they are flat towards the head, and his chin comes to a sharp point/rounded. His nose also flares out slightly indent at the bridge * between eyes*. The head shape is pretty much an upside down teardrop. eyes are blue ( and you can see it not just read it)

In Bobbys attachment, he has all three together, Ill start with the guy in the glasses "Kurt"
Flat chin. Slight cleft if thats what you'd call it. Curly hair, Brown eyes. Ears slightly stick out, Face is more oval/box shaped ( not just from having extra poundage)

Next Michael: First off ears stick out. I dont know anyone whos ears have changed in a matter of years... again brown eyes, Skinny nose also flatter at the bridge, very oval face, Flatter cheek bones than TSE's DL. ( that COULD be attributed to weight)

Similar in looks, slightly, sure... but looking closer they do not appear to resemble the photo of TSE's DL.

First off there are tons of suppliers bringing in gravids from Africa, and I don't see them having a problem on KS or anywhere else. Do you have any proof it causes damage to the wild population beyond your own opinion?
I respect your opinion, but calling others trash is hardly appropriate.


Regarding the genetics..

That is not something I am going to get into at the moment b/c it is not something I'm willing to go public with for the time being. However I am doing genetics research on ball pythons, and no it is not up for discussion at the moment. Further, I'm only sending this pic to show I was NOT lying...once again you are making an ASSumption, like so many others. Next time try ASKING in a polite and mature manner.

Chris, you need to start being more honest. To hit on even 50 pages of relevant info on the TSE thread in 20 minutes and reply a correct summation is almost virtually impossible. The odds of getting just the pages that have pertinent info is astronomical. You may be innocent of wrong doing in the herp community, all your other known businesses have an unsavory element to them. Fake ID's, video bootlegging, copycat websites, and infrared sheilded growing devices do not give you the appearance of the most upstanding member of the community. Truth not salesmanship is what is needed, and will be the ultimate decider of your fate in the reptile business.

As far as a witch hunt, most of the posts are unusually civil to this point.

I was just about to post the same thing before reading your post. I agree. Pretty fast work.

If you are doing genetic research why don't you have real walls? I might be mistaken but wouldn't that foam wall contaminate your genetic samples?
