My name is Peter Duimstra and I am the husband of Agness Kaku. I was dragged into this mess when John Szczepaniak threatened to destroy my career, along with the careers of my wife, my sister-in-law, and her husband.
As we near the beginning of John’s trial, I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has supported us. Your words have been a tremendous relief, and they have given us the confidence to see this nightmare through to the end. We want all of you to know that, no matter the outcome, we will be okay. If I never see another dime of venture funding, and Agness never sees another contract in the games industry — an industry littered with childish behaviour — we can always move on to less stressful things. We will be just fine.
I also want to acknowledge the people who attacked us, but then had the good sense to listen to our side of the story. One of the most dismaying things about falling victim to this kind of libel is watching the incurious crowd cheer the perpetrator onward, or worse, help to spread the libel even further. At least some of you haven't surrendered your reason.
Those of you who still believe John’s claims about us should know that we will be publishing the complete archive of emails and messages exchanged with him over the last year. While he continues to excerpt and censor, we will simply expose everything. Judge for yourselves whether John is responsible for his problems in Japan. We have nothing to hide.
Kick and scream as he might, John Szczepaniak is now being dragged into adulthood. Eventually, he will learn that his parents’ guest house cannot shield him from the consequences of his actions.
We are not the first people to be stalked and bullied by John Szczepaniak, but with any luck, we will be the last.
