Mariana and I developed a very close friendship over the almost three years we knew each other. That’s mostly due to the fact that we seemed to both be under attack by the same group of Individuals. Though I would not find out her Adopted Parent’s were in affiliation to those Individuals until after she’d been missing for over four months. I also wouldn’t find out the Motives for wanting her dead were completely different than their Motives for wanting me dead.

Mariana’s Adopted Parent’s, Christopher and Britt Dougall, were the ones that initiated the attacks and attempts to have her Murdered. Her drug and alcohol addiction became too much of a problem for them to want to deal with. She wasn’t making good decisions, hanging around with people that were involved in Criminal Activities, and bringing a lot of negative attention to the family.

The first attempt I’m aware of to have Mariana killed was back in December 2019. A man named Dustin Kyle Eberhardt convinced her to go on a road trip to South Dakota, using her vehicle for the trip, to pick up a shipment of Methamphetamines. Mariana told me, Dustin told her when they arrived in South Dakota, he was going to make this her best trip ever, because she would not be returning back to Minnesota with him. She said, Dustin told her he’d been hired to kill her at the end of the trip.

Mariana would end up gaining back possession of her vehicle from Dustin, and fled back to Minnesota. When she got to Owatonna, she stopped at the Owatonna Hospital and Reported the crime. She said, an Officer came to the Hospital and took her Statement. She showed the Officer messages on her cell phone sent by Dustin threatening to kill her. She said, The Officer took pictures of the messages he’d sent to her phone. She also requested a Rape Kit be taken because she said Dustin raped her during the trip. She said, a Rape Kit was done.

Mariana told me she would end up being transferred from Owatonna Hospital to either Unity, or Mercy Hospital in Anoka County. That’s when her nightmare would really begin! Someone Petitioned the Court in Anoka County, where she resided, to have her Civilly Committed due to Mental Illness and Chemical Dependency. Initially I thought it was her Adopted Parent’s out of concern. But, Mariana was addement about it not being her Addopted Parent’s. I wouldn’t come across this information until January 2024, four months after her Disappearance, or last known time to be alive, 9/20/2023. Looking over the Civil Commitment Case, I saw the Petioner for her Commitment was Owatonna Hospital!

Mariana had never been to Owatonna Hospital. The only reason she stopped there was because it was on the way back from South Dakota, and I imagine when she got far enough back into Minnesota, she felt safe to stop. She had evidence that she showed a Police Officer confirming her allegations. And their response was to Petition the Court in the County where she resided to have her Committed? Throughout the years I had believed the reason for the Commitment was because Dustin must’ve been an important drug runner, and it was to make people question her story about what had happened, and discredit her. So, they didn’t have to pursue charges against Dustin. Since through my Investigating I’d find a huge amount of Corruption within the Police and Courts in Minnesota involving them allowing for a very Large Group of Criminal Offenders remain free despite them repeatedly getting caught breaking the law. Even breaking the Law in order to Conceal it from the Public People. I knew it had to in some way have something to do with Illegal Drugs, since the one thing all the Criminal Offenders involved had in common was Addiction to Illegal Drugs. My Investigating would be the reason I was under attack by these Individuals. Since they Absolutely Don’t Want Me Exposing What I’ve Found To The Public People. But, what would iniate it was my seeking justice against a Drug Dealer named Tyronn Edward Adams, who would Royally Screw Me Over! Sinking me in like $3,000 in Credit Card Debt, which he’d promised to repay. Which for the first two months he would pay. I would not put all the pieces together, figuring out it was Mariana’s Adopted Parent’s, until late January 2024.

I discovered her Adopted Parent’s had to be in some way involved with the Corruption within Police and Courts back in 2022. When I saw the same suspicious pattern of “Loans” said to be issued for far in excess of the Property Value for two Home’s they purchased. Which I was seeing occurring with Properties Owned by known Drug Dealers and Law Enforcement Officers and Judges. I didn’t look any further into her Adopted Parent’s because she was by Best Friend, and I wasn’t going to go after her Family. I did mention what I’d found to Mariana. She didn’t have much of a response to it. She would tell me some time in 2023, she’d mentioned my name to her Adopted Father Christopher, who I’d never met, and she said he said, “I KNOW WHO SHE IS!” And it wasn’t in any type of complimentary way. Mariana said, “You must really be onto something big if my Dad knows who you are!” Because her Adopted Dad is Wealthy, Powerful, and Very Influential.

I’ve pretty much known since early 2022, the Corruption had to in some way extend into medical care the companies. Since I would begin to strongly suspect my medical care was being compromised. I would not obtain proof of it until early October 2022. But, I would come to find all the proof in the world is completely useless when everyone in a position that’s supposed to care and do something about it doesn’t have any desire to!

The problem I’m facing now has become MISSION CRITICAL! After over five years of trying to seek medical care for a never ending series of medical issues that would all begin in the summer of 2019, without any success, I’m certain I’ve finally figured out what’s been the cause of them all, Lymphoma. Cancer of the Lymphatic System. I’m fairly certain it began in the Lymph Nodes in my Stomach, since that’s one of the first symptoms I’d really notice back in April 2019. I went from NEVER HAVING ANY ISSUES WITH CONSTIPATION IN MY LIFE, to not being able to go to save my life! I’d never taken a laxative or stool softner, and I was working over 50 hours a week, lots of different crazy shifts, and I wasn’t really able to give the problem the attention needed. Therefore, I ended up with numerous other medical issues that would arise from it. I didn’t seek treatment for the problem until June 2021.

Prior to that, in April 2020, I began getting these terribly painful rashes with swelling on my lower leg’s. I had three in 2020. One on the right lower leg, then one on my left lower leg that required a strong dose of steroids to clear up, and right after Christmas I had one on both lower leg’s that also required steroids to clear up.

I was referred to multiple different Specialists, and in January 2021, I was Referred to Dermatology Consultants and saw Dr Tanya Sale. She told me to return when I had another flare up and she’d do a Punch Biopsy. In late July 2021, I had another flare up and made an appointment with Dr Sale to have the Punch Biopsy done. Dr Sale wouldn’t wait for the lidocaine to take effect before driving the hole punch through my skin to obtain the tissue sample. It was EXCRUCIATING! Not expecting to feel anything, I screamed out in pain! She waited to pull up the hole punch and cut off the sample and stitch up the wound until the lidocaine took affect. I was shaking uncontrollably in shock the entire rest of the procedure.

I was told the Biopsy results came back as Panniculitis and asked to return to have blood tests. I found out at that it was mostly Lubuler and it did involve the small blood vessels. The Diagnosis was extremely vague, and didn’t really narrow down the field of possibilities. I was told on the blood test came normal.

In my researching online I found it could be a Symptom of Inflammatory Bowel Disease, and that’s when I decided to make an appointment with a Specialist, and I began seeking care from MNGI, Minnesota Gastrointerology. I began seeing Nurse Practioner, Wendy Haller-Nerheim. She Ordered a Colonoscopy to be done, and I had that done in late October 2021. I was told the Colonscopy was unable to be completed due to “Poor Prep” and my colon still being full of stool. I ended up in the Emergency Room the next day, late in the evening, due to being unable to pass any stoll or gas, and being in a lot of discomfort and pain. A CT Scan was done of my Abdomen and Pelvis. I was told the results were normal. I returned to MNGI to see Wendy days later. She confirmed the CT Scan showed nothing that would explain my Symptoms and recommended I have a repeat Colonoscopy as soon as possible. Since the first one was nit able to be completed. I was told the Doctor did find a couple colon polyps that were removed, but otherwise nothing of significance could be seen.

I had a second Colonoscopy about a week later. The Doctor that performed the procedure told me I had Pelvic Floor Dysfunction, and the quality of my prep was once again poor. She said she removed another one or two colon polyps, but also didn’t find anything of significance wrong with me. The Doctor referred me to the Pelvic Floor Center for testing for Pelvic Floor Dysfunction.

In late October 2021, I had another flare up on my lower right leg that required another course of steroids to clear up. Then in late November, I had another flare up on my lower right leg. It was by far the worst flare I’d had. My lower right leg and foot was swollen to twice the size of my left leg, and about 70% of my lower leg was a deep purple color. It was excruciatingly painful. I was able to get an appointment with Dr Alexia Knapp at HealthPartners Dermatology on December 1, 2021. I was extremely dissatisfied with the care being provided by Dr Sale at Dermatology Consultants, and was really glad to be able to get an appointment so quickly with a new Dermatologist. That would be very short lived. When I arrived for the appointment I was told I was late. So, either I wrote down the wrong time, or was told the wrong time. I was told I would have to wait, and they’d see if they could fit me in. It was on a Friday afternoon, and I’d already delayed going to the Doctor the day before, because I was able to get a Dermatology Doctor’s appointment, and as I said, it was REALLY BAD! I needed to begin a course of steroids. So, I waited, and was fit in after the last appointment of the day. Just prior to seeing Dr Knapp, I was told by the front desk receptionist that after the first of the year, my insurance would no longer be accepted at their clinic. I was extremely disappointed to hear that. Regardless, I absolutely needed a Doctor to prescribe me a course of steroids to get the painful swelling and inflammation to subside. I had brought a copy of the Pathology Report from my previous Biopsy as well as the results from the blood tests. I gave them to the nurse when I was brought back to the exam room. When Dr Knapp came in, I told her, I was hoping to establish care with a Dermatologist. Unfortunately, I was just informed by staff my insurance will no longer be accepted at HealthPartners. So, really, all I need is a prescription for a course of steroids. Dr Knapp sat down on her stool alongside the exam bed and I lifted up the right leg of pants to show her my leg. When she saw my leg, she pushed forward with her feet, rolling her stool away from me, and saying, MY GOD! THAT LOOKS LIKE CELLULITIS! Which wouldn’t really be contagious. But, I think she was just so shocked at how bad it looked, and startled by it. I said, it’s not. I’ve had many of these flare ups, and though this one is by far the worst, the symptoms started out the same as all the other ones. She said, Really? A steroid clears that up? I said, yes, Methylprednislone Dose Pack. She said she was going to read over the previous Pathology Report and test results, and she’d be back.

I was having such difficulties with finding any Medical Provider that seemed to have any care in the world to help me with trying to figure out what was going on, and even after telling her I’m not going to be able to continue seeing her, and being fit in after the last appointment of the day, she would take the time to go out and read over the information I brought, so, I was really impressed. I felt she must really care. Maybe I finally found a Doctor that wants to help me. So, when she came back in the room and her recommendation was to another Biopsy, I felt she was looking out for my Best Interests, and I agreed.

I no longer think she was looking out for my Best Interests! She ordered more blood tests which revealed nothing. The Biopsy yielded no new information. When I returned to have the stitches removed, the wound was extremely red all around the area Biopsied. Dr Knapp told me to clean it daily with antibacterial soap, and prescribed an antibacterial ointment to apply twice after cleaning the wound.
