Hi everyone. This is my first post here and I just have to say Wow! I knew things were bad but didn't know it was this bad. I have known Kris, personally, for over a decade. We have been internet "friends" but have also met in person. She started her rescue when we were just in High School and I remember then thinking her house was a disaster and the pets were not cared for. I have seen the "sick room" too.
These accusations are not new. They date back to at least the year 2000. If you do a google search of her or her many aliases (she likes to change her name- Kris, Kristie, Christine) you will find old message board threads JUST like this one. I was never a volunteer for her but as a "friend" I watched her drive them away one by one. Of course her side of the story was always different but after awhile I came to realize that not everyone ELSE can be crazy, it was obviously her. The same thing happened with her real friends, she can't keep anyone close to her. She is REALLLLLY good at putting on an act though, which is how she gets so many new volunteers and donations. She is very smart.
I just wanted to add in some info, probably irrelevant, but thought you might want to know. I do know why Kris is no longer a police officer. She is pregnant and due very soon (end of Jan). She had a huge falling out with the daddy (they only knew eachother a few weeks) and I can only assume she has become overwhelmed with her problems/life and decided to run away again- just like she did when she became overwhelmed with her first NJ rescue and fled to FL, leaving her poor mother with all those animals in her house. I think she has probably decided that she will attempt to run a rescue full time as her new career. She was not a good police officer, she was always getting into trouble with her bosses and they were attempting to drive her out, maybe they were successful, I don't know.
I have NO idea how she is going to be able to support herself, so she must be living back with her mother even though she will be turning 30 in Jan. Furthermore, I have NO idea how she will support the rescue! Rent alone is $1100/month!
Kris is notorious for begging for money and not handling it properly. First of all, she used to lie about having a legit non-profit. She did not have the proper status as such but claimed she did when she decided it would look better if she did. That is just one of MANY lies. Although I do think she probably does have the correct status now, I hope at least! Secondly, she is constantly asking for large amounts of money and then spends her own (I hope) money on expensive things for herself like handbags, clothes, tattoos, vacations, etc etc etc.
I am surprised that she is even "allowed" to open a rescue again in NJ considering what happened with her first NJ "rescue." But I am happy to see the authorities are involved and watching.
