Earlier today we blogged about the disgraceful manner in which the Greenfield Recorder reported the story of the Orange fire that tragically took the lives of two young girls. The problem was that they interviewed two local idiots, who said that:

From what they saw and heard up the street, they believe the girls were still alive when firefighters arrived and that they did not act quickly enough in connecting a hose and entering the home.”

A quick investigation into their background revealed that this was the GED express that the Recorder hitched it’s wagon to:

12314101_1526043004385146_5059564897940912826_n

Well this blog has already been read over 25,000 times within a few hours, and we’ve gotten a lot of feedback about these two winners. So we did some Turtleboy investigatorial digging. Turns out that on top of shitting all over firefighters and maliciously blaming them for the deaths of two girls, there is also strong evidence to suggest that they have been telling even bigger lies for quite some time now.

For starters, they are not married. The different last names for Denise Dirth and Michael Chaplin should’ve given that one away. His Facebook page even says that they are “engaged.” But since the Recorder doesn’t do any background research they must’ve missed that one.

But based on what we’ve put together here, they have also apparently faked a pregnancy on Facebook. She posted this on June 30, 2015:

Screen Shot 2016-03-08 at 9.20.53 PM

If she posted this on June 30, and she was due on December 10, then she would be about 4.5 months pregnant. Most people make the Facebook announcement a little earlier, but that doesn’t mean she’s lying.

She posts literally 50 times a day, and it’s always almost stuff about cats. So we didn’t feel like going through her entire timeline. You can if you don’t have to work tomorrow, but you’ll get sick of the cat pictures real quick.

Anyway, we found stuff like this in September:

Screen Shot 2016-03-08 at 9.36.59 PM

“Little Michael III.” So in September she was sticking to the story. She would’ve been six months pregnant at this point. She began calling it a “high risk pregnancy” which would be a convenient thing to say if you wanted to explain why you weren’t posting baby pictures in January:

Screen Shot 2016-03-08 at 9.37.28 PM

The next day she posted this:

Screen Shot 2016-03-08 at 9.35.50 PM

Continuing the lie.

Screen Shot 2016-01-18 at 4.54.34 PM

Meanwhile she’s posting stuff like this on the regular:

Michael Chaplin Jr. smokes LOTS of weed. He is so cool!!!

Then on September 18, shit seemed to hit the fan:

Screen Shot 2016-03-08 at 9.26.50 PM

Oh good, she was going to buy cigarettes while allegedly 6.5 months pregnant. Besides that the only thing I can understand out of this rant is something about her dog getting into a fight with another dog, so she went to the liquor store to get free bottled water. Because apparently the liquor store in Orange is the Red Cross now. Oh yea, and her dog’s name is “Tattoo”:

Screen Shot 2016-03-08 at 9.27.34 PM

All of this Internet arguing is hurting her imaginary baby in the womb:

Screen Shot 2016-03-08 at 9.27.50 PM

Basically what’s going on in this conversation is this girl Lindsey Guitare saw her going into a liquor store in Orange and called her out on it on the Facebook machine. Because if she was 6.5 months pregnant, that would be a bad look. That led to this nonsensical diatribe:

Screen Shot 2016-03-08 at 9.28.52 PMScreen Shot 2016-03-08 at 9.29.50 PM

Ummm….is that all gonna be on the quiz? Boys and girls, this is why it’s important to do your summer reading. Because if you don’t you will be an adult who writes like this on the Internet.

Oh yea, and you’d never guess this, but the dog is a pit bull:

Screen Shot 2016-03-08 at 9.28.05 PM

Does she look 6.5 months pregnant there? I mean…..kind of? But that could be a result of grocery shopping at Cumby’s.

Oh yea, and she breeds pit bulls too:

Screen Shot 2016-03-08 at 9.30.52 PM

Is that legal? I don’t even know. I assume not. But if you have a male pit bull that’s looking to fuck, give Denise a call because she wants to sell some pit bull pups. How much you wanna bet if you went through her phone she’d have Laughlin Kennel on speed dial?

Fast forward to October:

Screen Shot 2016-03-08 at 9.43.54 PM

Screen Shot 2016-03-08 at 9.42.40 PM

Less than 2 months until the due date of December 10. Still sticking with the story. Mommy and Daddy are anxiously awaiting the arrival of Michael III.

Screen Shot 2015-12-28 at 1.20.12 PM

Finally the due date of December 10 rolled around. Now, if she was really pregnant, and something tragic had in fact happened and the baby was no longer alive, then the due date would be a pretty solemn day. Ask anyone who has ever had a miscarriage. More importantly, she would’ve posted something on Facebook about the loss of the pregnancy, since she is clearly addicted to Facebook and attention. But yet there was no mention of that. And on December 10 she posted a million times, but it was all just crap like this:

Screen Shot 2016-03-08 at 9.45.46 PM Screen Shot 2016-03-08 at 9.46.07 PM Screen Shot 2016-03-08 at 9.46.17 PM Screen Shot 2016-03-08 at 9.46.36 PM Screen Shot 2016-03-08 at 9.46.56 PM

Safe to say that Denise Dirth is probably the most blockaable person on Facebook. I’d kill myself if I looked on my Facebook feed and saw that shit a million times per day. 99.99% chance she sends out Candy Crush invitations. More importantly though, there was no mention of a baby. Nor was there any mention at all since then. Nothing.

Now does this prove they conspired to lie about this? No. But this does:

760d67c8-ed7b-4878-b996-a8c1621d11d1

Screen Shot 2016-03-08 at 9.10.54 PM

Why? Because thanks to the Google machine you can take that same picture and run it through the world wide internets, looking for a match. And here’s what you get when you run this picture through:

Screen Shot 2016-03-08 at 10.18.39 PM

Notice the date and location. This is indeed a 26 week old baby in the womb. But the picture was taken on October 11, 2013, in Edmonton. This is a Canadian baby that no one had ever heard of in 2013. Kind of like Ted Cruz. All Michael Chaplin Jr. did was search the Internet for an ultrasound picture, preferably a baby from far away so that no one would have seen it on their Facebook feed. But he wasn’t counting on the Google factor.

Insane.

All of this information was publicly available. We found it out in less than an hour and put this whole timeline together. Yet the Greenfield Recorder’s reporter was approached by these two poopsmoochers after the fire and was fed a bill of lies about the Orange firefighters purposely letting children die. And instead of doing ANY background research on who these people were, they printed their version of the story. Just think of that. Literally anyone can approach a Greenfield Recorder employee, tell them ANY story they want to, and the Recorder will print it.

But please Katie Severance, tell me more about what real journalism looks like:

Screen Shot 2015-12-29 at 10.30.59 AMScreen Shot 2015-12-29 at 10.30.12 AM

After all, we don’t have fancy journalism degrees like the fine employees of the Greenfield Recorder or Telegram and Gazette.

Anyway, to sum this up, Michael Chaplin Jr and Denise Dirth went out of their way to vilify firefighters in the media, who just encountered a tragic situation that will probably haunt them for the rest of their lives. Firefighters whose only crime was caring about their community too much. But this lie was just a pattern of lies in the lives of these two Orange losers. In the last six months they have repeatedly kept up this orchestrated conpiracy between the two of them about a baby that never existed. They are sick people who clearly have no regard for anyone but themselves. Of course Michael Chaplin’s long criminal record could’ve told you that.

I’d say these two are the biggest scumbags we’ve ever encountered, but I think that’s pretty self evident and all of you have drawn that conclusion for yourselves at this point. And the Greenfield Recorder believed them.

Turtleboy out.

    Honestly their are reasons people fake pregnancies, sometimes it’s when they are planning to kidnap a newborn baby. This may have just saved a kid from this. If they are even aware of this blog, if not and you see her with a baby I say report it asap.

    I’m tired of blogs like this one. Exposing the newspaper for printing the opinions of these 2 morons – great. Then going out of your way to print a blog about these 2 morons in which you report on their cat pics and whether or not she looks 6 months pregnant – boorish. I like the turtleboy that exposes local fraud and bullshit, not one who wastes all day “investigating” harmless losers. I’m sure there are other things in Worcester that could be exposed, but no, please spend more time digging into the facebook lives of nobodies.

    I have some more issues with these 2!

    So, reading through, and the girl clearly lying about her pregnancy- says she is going to give birth at Leomster Hospital…

    That can’t happen. Nope. If she had all those issues and especially, if she is, ” high risk,” you are sent to UMASS Memorial in Worcester,MA! Like I was. I went to Health Alliance, Leominster, since I was a kid, for everything. Gave birth to my 1st there. Then, I had 1 extra thing wrong with me, making me, “high risk.”
    Leominster doesn’t have the equipment, to care for an infant born prematurely. If they are born at Leominster, they are on the 4th floor ( NICU), in Worcester, , so Leominster can Life Lift the babies over quick and get them right into the NICU!
    My baby was in the NICU, for 21 days, of her life. It was horrible! These people are horrible! They need an education! They need a life, instead of lying about a life and ruining other people’s lives!
    This makes me so mad!!!
    I know someone who is either now or used to be a reporter for The Recorder. I’m just glad it wasn’t him who wrote it! Lol

      That was my first thought readying this. I was supposed to have my baby at Leominster and when I went into labor early I was rushed to Worcester UMass. My son also spent 21 days in the nicu there. No way a “high risk” would be at Leominster hospital

    Regaurdless of these peoples past or what can be assumed about them from their facebook pages, they have just gone through a terrible tragedy .its not right to trash talk any firefighters who were there doing everything they could do but is it any better to dig up any posible dirt u could find to ruin their credibility. Its goes without saying that firefighters were the easiest target to blame. I would imagine thats a completely normal reaction to such a terrible tragedy tho. And about the whole lying about being pregnant thing we dont know what happened , could be another tragic thing that she chose to keep private. Lets support these victims not bash them about things we know nothing about.

        If you’re not Mike or one of his friends then you a jackass and you really missed the point. They weren’t “just” attacking them. They were making an article about how the Greenfield Recorder should have done a far, far better job of checking their sources. Not only are they clearly not reliable as sources in general, but, even the Greenfield Recorder said the next day from where they live/were coming from they probably couldn’t even have seen it properly. The Recorder insulted all of the firefighters and everyone who knows the families by not doing their job properly. This blog is proof positive of that.

    My point his he should be exposing those in public office that are taking taxpayers money and being corrupt and shit. Like the article posted after this one regarding David Prouty.

    Turtleboy, you can be a great force of good, when you put your energy towards things like that. Stop wasting your time with simple Jabronis that say stupid shit, and work towards actually making peoples lives better, which your are doing valiantly for the people of David Prouty.

    I’m not trying to be a hardo. It just seems like the turtleboy who writes shit like this and the turtleboy that writes shit about david prouty and mosaic are fighting two different battles. I’d rather read about the later than the former(which is more like tmz then anything) Like why do you care so much about those two people it just seems so off.

Thinking about how terrified those two little girls were and what they were thinking. It prevents reporters from talking to these two scumbags in the future as well so that is joirnalism..

If you knew anything about dogs you would know this but you don’t, and your a little bitch who needs to get her two cents in on something completely irrelevant.

        Yea asshole, I was of a certain age and was close with a family directly affected by this.

        For a blog that rails on people for trying to suppress free speech, it seems as if you are doing the same thing here. They said something you didn’t agree with and you are doing everything in your power to ruin their life. Sounds like you need a safe space from the meanies who said something mean about your fire department.

        Yea I don’t agree with what they said, but fighting fire with fire so to say doesn’t really accomplish anything. Maybe you could write an article highlighting the fire departments brave efforts rather then a hit piece on two jabronis nobody gives a shit about.

    It is noteworthy and without coincidence that people like that who have problems with authority figures have deep down resentment because they have had problems with following the law at some point in theirs lives making a dumbass shitty stupid decision(s).

    But of course it is not their fault at all. They are pissed because they got caught and it is the fault of the authority. Not them.

    Very similar traits goes to the libtard Turtleboy (who we all know is not the real Turtleboy because the real Turtleboy would not go there) writing that absolute garbage, “This guy blowing cocaine in broad daylight” bullshit linking that coke head to a Trump supporter.
