The Beginning

Peter Welte, Wednesday, May 22, 2002, following a peculiar hand delivered letter from cyber bully Marilyn Troftgruben, called this domain name owner and talked with him for more than one hour. At the end of the telephone conversation, Peter Welte had the domain name owner meet him on the front steps of the Grand Forks County Courthouse, where he handed the domain name owner some back dated legal documents that were supposed to have been mailed nearly three years earlier.

With these unusual events occurring less than two hours apart from one another, both events appeared intentionally coordinated and highly suspicious. The following day, two domain names were registered and the Altruism Network began. For years crime information has been provided with success in both high numbers of visitors and obtaining significant crime details. While the new web site will present information better and increase in variety of crime stories over time, the old web site was effective and enjoyed the fundamental right to free speech.

Free speech should of course be automatic, but with the old web site it has actually been a constant struggle, leading to a serious case of cyber bullying against it. The desire with the new web site in this area is to exercise free speech without being harassed and bullied. The Altruism Network as well as the domain name owner have been victims of constant and ongoing abuse, deliberate false accusations, harassment, disparagement, reverse domain name hijacking, piggyback networks, and spam.

As a direct result of the events described above, the old web site started on a mere whim without any expectation of results or success. The site was not well constructed and information made available was minimal, yet the traffic in the first week was extremely significant. Only two stories about victims of crimes were available and the first story developed as a crime through the valuable information obtained by the Altruism Network. Information never available before will be presented with more stories about crimes, including focus on behavior, conduct, and ethics of authorities.

Info Update - June 30, 2009

The Altruism Network will not be adding any new information until after a transition takes place to an entire new web builder and html generator. This will not only make the site look better and be more useful, but will add improved use of graphics, photos, audio, and video. Only two stories contain the most information at this time because of availability of the information, and even then it is temporary and minimal in comparison to what will be completed after the software transition. After that takes place, information about both Dru Sjodin and Russell Turcotte will be the focus before completion of any other stories.
