About here is where the story starts getting really nasty.
Roxanne worked very closely with Bev in the early stages of the Diebold files research. As I understand it - and please correct me if I am wrong - she was one of the key brains behind the description of the GEMs hack in the July 8th story.
Back then Rox and Bev were thick as theives.. in the midst of all the excitement in July Bev introduced me to Rox and we spoke by phone about all the fun in GA.
Rox also set up the original BlackBoxVoting.org website. She did so to provide a secure forum for people to discuss BBV matters.... and it was used extensively.
I forget exactly when the schism occurred.. but I suspect it must have been September 2002 (please correct me if I am wrong). BBV.org went down as Liebold was engaged in its C&D warfare.... the circumstances of all this are related with commentary in another post in this thread which I will link here...
Again the short version of the story is - Bev decided Roxanne was filing Qui Tam and that she had sabotaged BBV.org deliberately...
Bev attacked Rox numerous times in these forums. Eventually it came to a huge barny.. a thread was posted that took it over the top (and then deleted) and Bev and Rox were both tombstoned.
There is a great deal more to this story... but others probably can tell it better than I.
Roxanne has said she has not filed Qui Tam and I beleive her.
