October 8, 2022: Chris Hansen Associate Anonymous Gene Defames and Doxes the Onision Household, Then Mobilizes Strangers Toward Their Home
On October 8, 2022, criminal stalker Anonymous Gene admitted repeatedly publishing inflammatory accusations and identifying
information concerning Onision, Lucas, and their children in public groups associated with Puyallup.
Gene wrote:
- "Every single person commenting gets the same spam"
He further admitted:
- "I've already posted 100's of times"
Gene then revealed that people influenced by his publications intended to approach the family home:
- "also a couple of the people said they would be coming to visit you. Best of luck with that. ;)"
Gene Manufactured Outrage and Gave It a Physical Destination
Gene did not merely publish an address.
He first distributed inflammatory accusations portraying Onision and Lucas as child predators and serious sexual offenders. Those accusations were presented as established facts despite the official record clearing the original allegations with no evidence of criminal activity and the materially different statements previously made by Sarah and Regina.
Gene then paired those accusations with information identifying the family, their community, their children, and the area where they lived.
The sequence was deliberate:
- accuse Onision and Lucas of heinous crimes
- direct those accusations into local Puyallup groups
- display photographs and identifying information
- involve the children and their possible school community
- distribute the material hundreds of times
- send the same material to people responding to the posts
- identify the household as a local target
- inform Onision that enraged strangers intended to visit
- celebrate the threatened visits with "Best of luck with that. ;)"
Gene converted defamatory propaganda into a physical targeting operation.
The false accusations created anger. The doxxing information gave that anger a destination.
Gene Mobilized Hostile Third Parties Against the Household
Gene admitted that every person commenting received the same material.
That was recruitment and audience mobilization, not passive publication.
Gene repeatedly placed inflammatory accusations before local residents, encouraged them to view the household as a danger, and supplied information capable of helping them identify or locate the family.
When Gene learned that people intended to visit the home, he did not discourage them, remove the identifying information, or warn them to stay away.
He responded:
- "Best of luck with that. ;)"
The response communicates approval and satisfaction that his campaign was moving from online defamation toward physical confrontation.
Gene also threatened:
- "don't step away, I'll spam bomb the whole thing ;)"
His own words establish that he intended to continue flooding local groups until the accusations and identifying information reached as many people as possible.
The Campaign Created a Foreseeable Risk of Violence
Gene conducted this operation in an environment where:
- social-media users had openly called for Onision's murder
- people had offered money to have Onision killed
- the family residence had already been targeted and vandalized
- Gene had repeatedly threatened Onision with murder, stabbing, suicide, and third-party violence
- Gene claimed that he financed Chris Hansen's trip to the family home
- Gene claimed that he and Hansen discussed or wagered upon Onision's death
Against that background, publishing the family's information hundreds of times and directing enraged strangers toward the household created an obvious risk of assault, vandalism, confrontation, or lethal violence.
Gene's operation functioned as recruitment of hostile third parties to confront, harass, intimidate, or harm the family.
The children lived at the same residence. Gene's conduct therefore endangered people who had no involvement in the public controversy and no ability to protect themselves from strangers mobilized by his accusations.
Criminal and Civil Liability
Gene's own admissions document intentional, repeated electronic communications directed toward Onision, Lucas, and their family for the purpose of harassment, intimidation, reputational destruction, and third-party mobilization.
The conduct implicates:
- RCW 9A.90.120, Washington cyber harassment
- RCW 9A.46.110, Washington stalking
- RCW 9A.46.020, Washington criminal harassment
- 18 U.S.C. 2261A, federal stalking through electronic communications
- RCW 9A.08.020, accomplice liability for knowingly encouraging or assisting another person's crime
Washington cyber-harassment law addresses repeated or anonymous electronic communications made to a target or third parties with intent to harass or intimidate.
Washington stalking law addresses intentional and repeated harassment that causes substantial emotional distress or fear of injury to a person or property.
Federal stalking law addresses a course of electronic conduct undertaken with intent to kill, injure, harass, or intimidate where the conduct causes or would reasonably be expected to cause substantial emotional distress or fear of serious bodily injury.
Washington accomplice law holds a person accountable when, knowing that the conduct will promote or facilitate a crime, the person solicits, commands, encourages, requests, aids, or agrees to aid another person in committing it.
Gene's doxxing, local targeting, encouragement, and celebration of threatened visits are highly probative of intent, knowledge, causation, and responsibility for foreseeable escalation.
The categorical accusations of child predation and sexual criminality also constitute the type of false allegations traditionally treated as defamation per se because they expose the targets to hatred, contempt, public exclusion, and danger.
Harm to Onision, Lucas, and Their Children
Gene forced the household to live with the knowledge that:
- their identifying information had been published hundreds of times
- local residents were being told they were dangerous sexual criminals
- their children and possible school community had been drawn into the campaign
- strangers influenced by Gene intended to visit the home
- the residence had already been physically targeted
- public calls for Onision's murder were circulating
- Gene intended to continue mass distribution
- Gene approved of the possibility of physical confrontation
The resulting harm included loss of residential privacy, fear of assault or murder, concern for the children, reputational destruction among neighbors, increased security needs, emotional distress, disruption of ordinary family life, and continuing uncertainty about who had received the information.
Onision, Lucas, and their children had the right to be left alone and safe inside their own home.
Gene deliberately attacked that right by manufacturing public outrage, directing it into the family's local community, publishing information capable of locating the household, and celebrating that hostile strangers intended to appear there.
