Author of the Crazy Days and Nights Blog Exposed as an Abusive Attorney
EXCLUSIVE: The anonymous author of the Hollywood gossip blog Crazy Days and Nights revealed his identity to a Florida court last year in the fallout of a messy extramarital affair that wouldn’t be out of place in one of his website’s famed “blind items.”https://t.co/Yin3z6Rzna

• A podcaster has revealed who "Enty Lawyer" is, the anonymous author of the harmful, racist, sexist, QAnon-supporting blog who many, including DeuxMoi, give legitimacy to, a California-based attorney.
• The Daily Beast has confirmed through court filings that Enty Lawyer is licensed California attorney John Robert Nelson, who in 2018 ran unsuccessfully for Congress as a progressive Democrat. It’s unclear whether he currently practices law or ever practiced entertainment law as he claims on CDAN.
• Nelson is currently fighting his former mistress Cassandra Crose in court over alleged abuse and harassment.
• Nelson, in the complaint, alleged that Crose falsely claimed she was pregnant, falsely accused him of molesting her daughter, and barraged him with “explosive, violent and threatening” calls and texts-up to hundreds per day.
• Nelson claims Crose threatened to reveal Nelson’s online persona to the public and that he paid her at least $1,500 per month or more in hush money and stayed with Crose “to keep her from exposing me” and because he was worried about the safety of his family.
• Due to the alleged behavior, Nelson and his wife tried to get a restraining order. When Crose learned of the couple’s intention to go to court, the complaint says, she unmasked Nelson on social media and in podcast episodes.
• The court found that his request for an injunction against Crose failed to allege facts sufficient to support a claim and that the complaint failed to comply with federal court procedures.
• Crose denied that she threatened Nelson or shook him down for money, and she says many of the text messages he cited in his filing were not from her.
• Crose purchased time on the CDAN podcast to promote her own, “Cassandra Explains It All.” The two began an affair and Crose claims she was unaware he was married.
• She said on her podcast that Nelson’s wife contacted her with concerns that he was cheating and that Nelson claimed his wife was an alcoholic and that he planned to separate from her. Crose says Nelson proclaimed he loved her up until the day he had her served with a legal notice and also alleged that he once sent her what she believes were doctored or fraudulent court records to convince her he had sought a divorce from his wife.
• In a Feb. 5 filing in Florida state court, Crose claims Nelson was abusive. She alleged Nelson was violent on several occasions-choking, slapping, and hitting her without consent. She also alleged that Nelson told her on Jan. 11, 2023, that he had “killed women before,” and that he was “smart enough” to get away with killing her.
• The complaint also alleged that after Crose was served with legal papers, Nelson’s wife Victoria changed her Twitter profile background to a picture that Crose had sent John Nelson of a storm outside her bedroom window. It also claimed that Nelson continued to solicit sexual material from Crose after he filed for the restraining order last October.
• In an audio recording Crose shared with The Daily Beast, Nelson is heard sexually fantasizing about physically abusing her for eating unhealthy foods, and about striking her with a belt. In a text from Nov. 2, 2022, Nelson told Crose “You belong to me and only to me and I will use you as I wish.”
• Nelson was obsessive about her weight and asked her to regularly send him photos of herself on a scale even though he was aware of her history with eating disorders and domestic violence. She said she lost approx 35 pounds when they were romantically involved.
• On her podcast, Crose has described her relationship with Nelson as emotionally abusive and alleged that his harassment against her is “ongoing” via the legal system.
• Nelson did not return requests for comment sent by phone, email, and text. An attorney representing him did not respond to requests for comment.
It should be noted The Daily Beast previously gave CDAN legitimacy in 2017 by doing a profile on the blog.
