href=\"https:\/\/socialcatfish.com\/scamfish\/military-romance-scams\/\">online romance<\/a>? If you did, consider yourself lucky that yours didn\u2019t end in murder, unlike the case of \u201ctallhotblond&#8221;. While online love stories and hookups each start in their own unique way, for Thomas Montgomery, a 46-year old former Marine who worked in a factory as a machinist, life was pretty traditional.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-online-love-triangle-with-talhotblond-ended-in-murder\">How Online Love Triangle with Talhotblond Ended in Murder<\/h2>\n\n[aesop_video  src=&#8221;youtube&#8221; id=&#8221;MM88toJZbFg&#8221; width=&#8221;100%&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; disable_for_mobile=&#8221;off&#8221; loop=&#8221;off&#8221; controls=&#8221;off&#8221; mute=&#8221;off&#8221; autoplay=&#8221;on&#8221; viewstart=&#8221;on&#8221; viewend=&#8221;on&#8221; revealfx=&#8221;off&#8221; overlay_revealfx=&#8221;off&#8221;]\n\n\n\n<p>He had a wife, 2 loving daughters, and even taught Sunday school at his community\u2019s local church. Little did he know that a \u2018hello\u2019 from an attractive 18-year old would destroy his life, expose two <a href=\"https:\/\/socialcatfish.com\/scamfish\/where-do-people-get-catfished-the-most\/\">catfish<\/a>, and lead him to become a murderer all under the guise of love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It started innocently enough. Thomas Montgomery was in a children\u2019s gaming chatroom when he first received a greeting from \u201ctallhotblond\u201d. He felt flattered that an attractive 18-year old was interested in connecting with him. Even though he was married, his dull job and sexless relationship made forbidden prospects sound enticing.<\/p>\n\n\n[aesop_image  img=&#8221;https:\/\/socialcatfish.com\/scamfish\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/jesse_schieler.png&#8221; panorama=&#8221;off&#8221; imgwidth=&#8221;100%&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; lightbox=&#8221;off&#8221; captionsrc=&#8221;custom&#8221; captionposition=&#8221;left&#8221; revealfx=&#8221;off&#8221; overlay_revealfx=&#8221;off&#8221;]\n\n\n\n<p>It wasn\u2019t a coincidence that he worked with children at his church and used minor\u2019s gaming chat. He was turned on by the same things adult videos sell as fantasy, a sexy 18-old ear girl who needs someone to show her the ropes sexually. \u201cTallhotblond\u201d whose \u201creal\u201d name was Jessi, told Thomas she was a virgin and this added to Thomas\u2019 temptation, even if it was all through the web.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All that their relationship required was for Thomas to lie that he was the same age as <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Talhotblond\">tallhotblond<\/a>. He figured it wouldn\u2019t hurt if he told her he was also 18, buff, and helping the country as a soldier. His screen name was \u2018marinesniper,\u2019 and with his fake new persona, he and tallhotblond began an epic online romance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the following year, they talked about love and even marriage while engaging in digital sex. Jessi sent Thomas scintillating packages &#8211; such as her worn g-string panties and sultry photographs or video of herself. Although it started as an unlikely romance, it soon turned into an online addiction.<\/p>\n\n\n[aesop_image  img=&#8221;https:\/\/socialcatfish.com\/scamfish\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/thomas-montgomery-1.png&#8221; panorama=&#8221;off&#8221; imgwidth=&#8221;100%&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; lightbox=&#8221;off&#8221; captionsrc=&#8221;custom&#8221; captionposition=&#8221;left&#8221; revealfx=&#8221;off&#8221; overlay_revealfx=&#8221;off&#8221;]\n\n\n\n<p>Thomas\u2019 wife was aware that something was amiss, as Thomas spent so much time online. He wouldn\u2019t even get off the computer when she needed to talk. As time went on, Thomas began to feel as if his <a href=\"https:\/\/socialcatfish.com\/scamfish\/protecting-yourself-from-romance-scammers-identifying-manipulative-online-relationships\/\">online relationship<\/a> with \u201ctallhotblond\u201d was more real than his \u201creal\u201d life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This elusive facade came to a screaming halt when Thomas\u2019 family found out. It was one of his daughters who first found her father\u2019s disturbing chat connection and was sufficiently creeped out enough to tell her mother. Aware of her husband\u2019s predilection for lying, Thomas\u2019 wife, Cindy, contacted \u201ctallhotblond\u201d with an image of her family so that the teen would be aware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>She tried to be kind and wrote:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n[aesop_quote  type=&#8221;pull&#8221; background=&#8221;#ffffff&#8221; text=&#8221;#000000&#8243; width=&#8221;100%&#8221; align=&#8221;left&#8221; size=&#8221;1&#8243; quote=&#8221;Let me introduce you to these people, the man in the center is Tom, my husband since 1989.

Do not trust words on a computer, let this go, you will only be hurt by a man who has mastered the art of manipulations and lies.&#8221; cite=&#8221;- Cindy Montgomery&#8221; parallax=&#8221;off&#8221; direction=&#8221;left&#8221; revealfx=&#8221;off&#8221;]\n\n\n\n<p>Tallhotblond received Cindy\u2019s message and was devastated. How had she been so candid and trusting with a man who wasn\u2019t who he claimed to be? Why would anyone lie and trick an 18-year-old girl, such as herself?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Or, that might have been Jessi\u2019s first thought, if she was who she claimed to be, but Jessi wasn\u2019t the person who told Thomas she was, either. This is where the story gets weird: If \u201ctallhotblond\u201d was not a beautiful 18-year old virgin, who was she?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The answer?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A woman named Mary Shieler, who had been secretly photographing and recording her daughter, then using the <a href=\"https:\/\/socialcatfish.com\/scamfish\/warning-these-images-have-been-used-to-scam-online\/\">images to trick men online<\/a>. Although everyone knew her as the \u201cperfect\u201d mother, who gave everything she could to her beautiful teenage daughter (whose name was actually \u201cJessi\u201d), behind the scenes her life was far less healthy.<\/p>\n\n\n[aesop_image  img=&#8221;https:\/\/socialcatfish.com\/scamfish\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/mary-shieler.png&#8221; panorama=&#8221;off&#8221; imgwidth=&#8221;100%&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; lightbox=&#8221;off&#8221; captionsrc=&#8221;custom&#8221; captionposition=&#8221;left&#8221; revealfx=&#8221;off&#8221; overlay_revealfx=&#8221;off&#8221;]\n\n\n\n<p>It was Mary who had sent g-string panties she bought or stole from her daughter\u2019s dirty laundry. As creepy as it was, she would look for times when her daughter was showing even a hint of skin and photograph her, to exploit the images for her use. She also used photographs of her daughter working as a lifeguard, so she could share bathing suit <a href=\"https:\/\/socialcatfish.com\/scamfish\/kendra-lusts-photos-used-in-a-romance-scam\/\">photos with Thomas and incite his lust<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although any sane, caring mother would have given up the ruse once Thomas was exposed and thought twice, Mary still pretended to be \u201ctallhotblond\u201d. She acted mad at Thomas and wrote that she felt he should be in \u201cjail\u201d for what he did, even though she was secretly still <a href=\"https:\/\/socialcatfish.com\/scamfish\/what-does-a-catfish-really-want\/\">catfishing<\/a> him!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In revenge, Mary publicly exposed Thomas Montgomery in online chatrooms and also came up with a more interconnected revenge plot. She would look for someone that Thomas knew, pursue a relationship with that individual, and make Thomas jealous. After all, Thomas still thought she was someone her daughter\u2019s age, which gave her <a href=\"https:\/\/socialcatfish.com\/scamfish\/the-costly-con-how-brian-lost-250000-to-a-scammer\/\">con<\/a> all the power!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her next victim? Thomas\u2019 coworker, Brian Barrett, a handsome man of 22. \u201cTallhotblond,\u201d told Brian that Thomas A.K.A. \u201cmarinesniper\u201d had tricked her by pretending to be younger. Captivated by Jessi\u2019s beauty, Brian quickly fell prey to her twisted web of sexy lies.<\/p>\n\n\n[aesop_image  img=&#8221;https:\/\/socialcatfish.com\/scamfish\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/brian-barrett.png&#8221; panorama=&#8221;off&#8221; imgwidth=&#8221;100%&#8221; align=&#8221;center&#8221; lightbox=&#8221;off&#8221; captionsrc=&#8221;custom&#8221; captionposition=&#8221;left&#8221; revealfx=&#8221;off&#8221; overlay_revealfx=&#8221;off&#8221;]\n\n\n\n<p>Together, Brian and \u201cJessi\u201d bean to expose Thomas\u2019 in the chatrooms they had used together. Despite doing this, \u201ctallhotblond\u201d would (still) sometimes message Thomas. That contact gave Thomas hope that she could eventually accept the real him &#8211; middle-aged and all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Little did he know that \u201ctallhotblond\u201d was only playing with his emotions as she would waffle back and forth between communicating with him and pursuing Brian. Thomas\u2019 messages to \u201ctallhotblond\u201d became increasingly threatening and violent, as he sent an instant message like, \u201cBrian will pay in blood\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, he delivered on his threats. When Thomas heard Brian gleefully telling their mutual coworkers that he was going to meet \u201ctallhotblond\u201d in person and pop her \u201ccherry\u201d, he was thrown into a blind rage. Addicted to the drama and filled with jealous lust, on September 15, 2006, Thomas shot and killed Brian Barrett with a military rifle, while he was leaving work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps this horrible turn of events was foreshadowed when Brian wrote a January 2, 2006 note to himself, which read, \u201cTom Montgomery (46 <a href=\"https:\/\/socialcatfish.com\/scamfish\/catfish-story\/\">years old<\/a>) ceases to exist and is replaced by an 18-year old battle-scarred marine. He is moving to West Virginia to be with the love of his life.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the report of the murder came in, police instantly zeroed in on Thomas Montgomery, as coworkers of the men <a href=\"https:\/\/socialcatfish.com\/scamfish\/online-dating-can-make-better-work-vice-versa\/\">worked knew about the online<\/a> love triangle. Police captain Ron Kenyon later said that their first concern was to find out if \u201cJessi\u201d was still alive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Police was shocked when they arrived at Jessi\u2019s home. Not only was Jessi not injured or in distress, but it was also her mother, Mary Shieler, who opened the door and admitted that she had been the one behind the scenes all along.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although police tried, they could not find any way to charge Mary with a crime. Perhaps in some poetic justice, Mary\u2019s husband divorced her, and her beloved daughter moved away and cut ties, as she attended college. The real Jessi had no idea what her mother had been doing in her name. Murdered Thomas Montgomery struck a plea deal to be jailed for murder, for 20 years.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\" id=\"h-where-can-i-watch-tall-hot-blonde-documentary\">Where can I watch Tall Hot Blonde documentary?<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Tall Hot Blonde&#8221; is a documentary film directed by Barbara Schroeder that originally aired on the cable network, HBO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have an HBO subscription, you can watch the documentary on HBO Max, the streaming service of HBO.
