Personal Background

    • Born Manuel Sasha Barlos; legal name William Sasha Riley.
    • Canadian citizen; currently based in Victoria, British Columbia.
    • Military service: enlisted twice — 1991–1998 and rejoined in 2002, retired 2016.

    • Adoptive father: William Kyle Riley (pilot); adoptive mothers: Irene Ursula Lithky (later Pier) and Mary Lynn Riley (deceased by suicide).
    • Located birth parents (not contacted yet); has a half‑sister in Massachusetts.

Summary Of Allegations And Key Incidents

  • Trafficking and Abuse:

    • Trafficked and sexually abused as a child from roughly late 1970s–mid 1980s; remembers ages ~9–13, possibly as early as 6–7.
    • Repeated physical abuse by adoptive parents (e.g., thrown into a pool, thrown down stairs causing skull fracture; incidents involving a Chevy van).
    • Multiple police reports and investigations occurred (approx. 3–4 incidents documented).
    • CPS involvement and temporary foster care placement occurred; returned to the household.
  • Organized Parties / Farms:

    • Parties held on multiple farms with tents, entertainment, and paid attendees.
    • Victims (including children) were forced to fight, be assaulted, raped, tortured, and sometimes killed.
    • Events staged over multiple days; most extreme abuses occurred in final days with smaller inner circles.
    • Victim trafficking and transport arranged by adoptive father (pilot), who transported both guests and victims; associated with Epstein-linked parties and high‑net‑worth attendees.
  • Specific Violent Events:

    • Samantha (black runaway): trafficked, sexually tortured, and later tortured to death by adoptive parents; William participated in a filmed scene with her earlier.
    • Patricia: same‑age trafficked girl; shot in bed during a filmed assault before Trump entered the room; later died.
    • Sarah: assisted suicide (Samantha shot her at Sarah’s request); other brothel victims were also shot and killed.
    • William witnessed multiple murders and at least one grown man beaten to death.
    • William was forced to clean up blood and other aftermath in some instances.
  • Coercion/Control Tactics:

    • Drugging and forced participation in violent acts; filmed abuses used as blackmail leverage.
    • Perpetrators recorded victims abusing others to secure compliance.
    • Threats of killing used to enforce obedience; examples where perpetrators pointed guns or threatened to shoot victims.

Encounters With Specific Individuals

  • Donald Trump:

    • Multiple encounters (William recalls at least three). Described as violent, sadistic, and physically torturous.
    • One vivid incident (around 1981–1983 in Enterprise, Alabama): during a room assault, multiple men entered, shot Patricia, threatened William, then Trump entered; William claims to have stabbed/impaled Trump with a wooden tent stake (wrapped with a condom) during a forced sexual act, causing severe injury requiring medevac (William states Trump was airlifted out).
    • Trump allegedly choked William repeatedly until unconscious and threatened to kill him.
    • William states Trump was not merely a client but a high‑level facilitator who ran the ring alongside other wealthy individuals; Epstein described as operating under or for that group.
  • Jim Jordan:

    • Incident when William was ~12: assault at a farm party where Jim Jordan tackled him in front of 25–50 people; William is highly confident of Jordan’s identity and would take a polygraph to confirm.
  • Andy Biggs:

    • Assaulted William severely (post‑Trump incident). William says Biggs beat him until convulsing, broke ribs, nearly killed him, and argued with William’s father about the extent of violence.
  • Clarence Thomas and Lindsey Graham:

    • Both present at parties; William can place them at events but cannot definitively swear they assaulted him.
    • Clarence Thomas stood out as a black attendee at primarily white gatherings; Thomas’s confirmation to the Supreme Court was noted by William’s father.
    • Lindsey Graham’s presence is remembered; William suspects assault but cannot provide conclusive testimony.
  • Other Noted Names:

    • Vladimir Putin: name mentioned repeatedly in household conversation during the 1980s; William does not recall Putin attending parties he was at.
    • Bill Clinton: name mentioned but William does not recall seeing him.
    • Jeffrey Epstein: present but portrayed as a manager/organizer subordinate to a circle of richer, more powerful men (including Trump).

Military Incident (Child Pornography Discovery)

  • Around 2008–2009, while William was in the military, he was pulled into an office after another soldier, Staff Sergeant Habel (H A B E L), was caught with child pornography.
  • Commanders said some material resembled William; they did not show him films but inferred images likely depicted him as a minor (age ~11–13).
  • Habel was removed from the military, possibly jailed for ~30 days, reduced in rank, and separated with a less‑than‑honorable discharge.
  • Military handled the prosecution at that level; broader civilian referrals depend on scope and jurisdiction.

Medical/Physical Consequences

  • Recounted physical injuries include fractured skull (from being thrown down stairs), broken ribs, deformed rib cage, frequent severe bruising, convulsions, and near‑asphyxiation events.
  • Multiple instances where William was rendered unconscious due to strangulation or blows.
  • Psychological impact: hypervigilance, refusal to allow others into personal space, long‑term trauma.

Evidence, Witnesses, And Investigations

  • Witnesses and potential corroborators mentioned:
    • Michael (First Sergeant) Bis: discussed the films with William; last contact was in 2011; likely remembers the unusual case.
    • Captain Colasanto (recalled spelling: C O L A S A N T O): possibly a commanding officer at the time.
    • Staff Sergeant Habel: soldier caught with child pornography.
    • Local law enforcement: sheriffs and school nurses intervened at times (e.g., Panama City beach rescue and school bruising reports); some investigations occurred but lacked sufficient evidence to prosecute fully.
    • Jane Goodall: reportedly worked with William as a case worker or support contact during recovery; might recall his case.
  • William reports that much filmed material was seized by FBI in the past; believes many videos exist and could be matched via facial recognition software in child pornography databases.
  • William is willing to testify and prefers to limit current testimony to details he can swear to in court; open to future sessions to explore less certain memories.

Action Items

  • Transcription and preservation:
    • Interviewer intends to transcribe and duplicate recording files and may publish raw audio and a summary if William consents.
  • Further interviews:
    • Plan for follow‑up discussion focused on memories William cannot yet certify; another immediate callback was scheduled within 10 minutes at conversation end.
  • Legal/forensic follow‑up:
    • Consider forensic options (e.g., facial recognition against cataloged child exploitation databases) if relevant films can be located and verified.
  • Potential witness outreach:
    • Locate and contact Michael Bis, Captain Colasanto, or others present at Fort Carson or parties to corroborate details (only if William consents).

Decisions

  • William is willing to have his testimony recorded and potentially published to shed light and attract legal support.
  • William will focus current statements on memories he can testify to under oath; uncertain recollections will be handled in separate sessions to avoid muddying evidence.
