Dear Lizzy lawsuit??

Looks like Gabb funds were to go to the save the kids foundation and they weren't given a share of income.

I don't trust most non profits like his/theirs. Shady stuff goes down.

He was all about save the kids.
She is all about over-share everything on social media.
For a couple that presented forth as all into each other...... they sure were on opposite sides of the fence.

I wonder why she was kicked off the board?
I wonder why they are suing?

Totally agree.

And for a family that was get the kids off social media, they sure did use them on their social media and she still does to get ahhs and hearts and your so brave comments.

Also this has be gut laughing.

"Screen free memories." If that was true they wouldn't have the social media jobs they have/had. Lizzy wouldn't be pimping out her kids to make others feel sorry for them to get money. We wouldn't know about first dates or first kiss or baseball or her ugly cries or whatever else she puts out there for the world to see.

She wouldn't take out the camera to capture the memory and share it.

I’m sorry but I find DL AND her late husband to be very fake. They have lived their lives posting on social media and over sharing. It’s sad what happened to him but he was very obnoxious and I think he found a niche with his Save The Kids Foundation. He discovered a way to make money. He certainly didn’t practice what he preached- they both use their kids online for money, likes and attention. I feel bad for their kids. She needs to get off IG and quit sharing so much. She seems to need a lot of attention.

I am curious, if anyone knows....

Is the $300,000+ that she collected from her, his, their groupies, fan club, etc... in the days, week, months since his passing.....a part of this foundation.
Or are those collected funds separate from the funds of the foundation that her husband established?

Separate. But did you all see the update on the GFM? Her SIL said you can ask for a refund because they found a "small life insurance policy."

Why did DL not know her dh has one? Did they not talk to each other except for social media crap?

Because I have a folder of all of dh's info. Our bank info, cc info, insurance info, our separate savings, his policy info, etc. You know like who we contact and all that.

For someone soooooooo committed to her dh and he to her, you'd think they'd have that conversation. 🤷‍♀️

There are plenty of red flags with how those statements have been written. That's bad PR and bad publicist 101. Trump-flavoured. No one had heard of this lawsuit to begin with so the sole purpose of these statements is a call for citizen action to flood the AG in an attempt to get the case dismissed.

I've noted demeaning and suspicion-inducing language ("that claims to help kids", "we have questions and concerns for the board members", "we don't believe this non-profit is fulfilling its mission", "we are trying to understand if suing Elizabeth Kartchner is proper use of th edonations", etc.) as well as plenty of pathos ("grieving widow" mentioned several times, "a widow and mother of four who is still reeling from a [sic] unspeakable tragedy"). Naming the board members on IG while claiming they don't condone personal attacks is laughabled at best. It serves no other goal than to instigate harassment on social media which is deliciously ironic coming from an adult who claims it is their mission to eradicate online violence and bullying. Apparently, it's gloves and earrings off when it comes to fellow adults!

Don't get me started on Emily's "1000% evil" comment. They sure were all very quiet about their concerns over Save the Kids since Collin's passing on social media all this time. It all miraculously came to the surface when the lawsuit came out. How convenient. 

This good vs evil rhetoric is ridiculous and indicative of the ever-growing break in American society we've witnessed since Trump's 2016 campaign. Don't come pretend you're in it for peace and calm and good vibes when you're playing with fire like this. The words are saying your mindset and your public save-my-arse-by-villainifying-to-the-extreme-to-other-side campaign loud and clear. If AC ever take her back, I won't be buying a single thing no matter how cute the AC designers' stuff for her brand turn out to be. This is vile behaviour.

Also, all the Gabb product placement she's done on social media over the years without disclosing Collin's interests with the company is another major red flag on how the truth and facts are always twisted to suit her narrative. This is not the story of Elizabeth trying to save Save the Kids which has led her to becoming the witch they're hunting. Something was amiss before that, when Collin was alive and working, and they're asking for a significant sum in damages for that. Now, who's the American Pea who's going to unearth the lawsuit filing (pretty please)? 

Elizabeth and Collin Kartchner are cons. Those poor children are left to be raised by someone who doesn’t have the capacity to parent.

The impression I am getting from their posts is that perhaps when Elizabeth was on the Board, she spent funds inappropriately. If it had been Colin, I think they would have sued his estate? I also wonder if Liz was given a notice of suit and she posted all that because I can't find that anything *actually* has been filed against her. 

I wonder if the non-profit had to do an audit (non profits who don't bring in a minimal of $1m aren't required to audit, but if they DO bring in $1M a year, a mandatory audit is triggered). 

10/2020 - Colin died -- no audit on the previous years financials that I can find.

2021 - 2020 taxes show $1m in donations + mandatory audit triggered.

early 2022 - Also when Liz was forced down (per instagram)

mid 2022 - lawsuit 




__all speculation from what the instagram posts posted__

All I read was widow, widow, widow, widow. It seems like it would be something significant to go after a widow, widow, widow. Who wants that publicity?

I mean, it could mean that (that it was Colin's doings) but normally Liz would not be responsible for what Colin did --- only his estate would be, and they aren't suing them (from Liz's post). I will admit, though, the part about them suing her late husbands company makes me wonder if that is what they are using to go after the estate? That would be unusual though. Normally it would be worded as the estate of Colin...The only way I can think Liz would be brought in is if she signs checks or had knowledge of what Colin was doing. 

I googled her name, to see if anything relating to a lawsuit came up. 

Her name came up with a "net worth", so I clicked on it. Then googled his name and net worth. 
Seems that Mr and Mrs Kartchner have done quite nicely for themselves, especially if her ($300,000) grieving widow fund money collected is added to her net worth.
I know what's listed online isn't always 100% accurate, but even half of the listed net worth is a nice amount.

A few things really annoy me about all of this. One, that the organization is called Saved the Kids. It's too similar to Save the Children, which has been around for a long time and I hope Collin didn't name the organization Save the Kids to capitalize on this and hope that people would donate to his thinking they were donating to Save the Children.

Two, in one of Dear Lizzy's posts (or her friend's, can't remember which) she says that all that the board members care about is money. It's just like invoking the widow thing. It's so easy to throw out there to vilify someone and is ultimately meaningless. While I realize not everyone has good motivations and even some charities, foundations, board members, etc are not necessarily selfless (I work in the industry, and it is indeed an industry), I don't see a small organization like this suing Elizabeth just for the money and being willing to risk not only funds that now have to be spent on legal fees that could be used for their programming instead but also their professional reputations and that of their charity on a baseless lawsuit that is "only about money".

I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out that Elizabeth didn't fully educate herself on the rules and guidelines regarding being a board member or director, etc. of a charity and misused the funds and doesn't understand why it's not her money to do with as she pleases and doesn't want to pay it back, so they're suing her. It may be a grift or it may be that she's just too stupid to understand the difference between personal and charitable money.
