(NaturalNews) Forbes.com contributing writer Jon Entine, long known as a biotech shill and pesticide apologist, committed physical violence against his wife and psychologically traumatized his own daughter, according to court documents now revealed in this comprehensive, five-part investigative article by Natural News. The documents, shown below, reveal how his wife pleaded for court protection against domestic violence and child abuse and sought a restraining order against Entine to halt Jon Entine from “physically, verbally and / or psychologically abusing, annoying, harassing or injuring” herself or their young female daughter.

Jon Entine has professional ties to Monsanto, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, Proctor & Gamble and other similar corporations. [1] He is a research fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, a research fellow at George Mason University, and was a paid lecturer at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. Entine is a key “attack operative” for the biotech industry well known for authoring wildly defamatory character assassination articles to target GMO skeptics and scientists who disagree with the biotech industry’s contrived safety claims.

With the help of Forbes.com and the American Enterprise Institute — both key players in attacking and smearing GMO skeptics and scientists — Entine has been instrumental in viciously smearing the reputations of numerous scientists, activists, independent journalists and environmentalists, usually through the use of wildly fraudulent smear tactics and the wholesale fabrication of false “facts” which he weaves into deranged articles.

Jon Entine’s double life now comes to the surface

As you will learn in the investigative article you are now reading, it turns out that Jon Entine has been leading a double life. In one life, he presents himself as an upstanding, award-winning journalist and research fellow with a well-credentialed resume. But in his secret life — now painstakingly revealed by Natural News in this comprehensive investigative report — Jon Entine is described by his own wife as a belligerent, violent, mentally unstable individual who committed acts of violence against his wife, psychologically traumatized his own daughter, installed surveillance equipment to spy on his wife’s activities, attempted to compel his wife’s therapist to testify against her in court, treacherously interfered with his wife’s professional activities and engaged in a bizarre series of other reprehensible activities that no woman or daughter should ever have to endure.

This is the true story of a biotech industry apologist and hit piece character assassin who made the mistake of attacking a woman who had the strength and courage to record his aggressions in sworn court documents now acquired by Natural News. Those documents, revealed here, tell the story of the desperate survival of a woman and her daughter who escaped the grip of a deranged individual who has long served as the poster boy for a biotech industry steeped in threats, intimidation and fraud.

NOTE: To protect the privacy of the child, her name has been altered in this article to “Jenny.” This is not her real name, and she is an innocent victim in what unfolded. Natural News asks that other media outlets respect the privacy of this minor and refrain from publishing her real name in plain text. We also ask that you respect the privacy of the wife, Ellen Turner, who was herself victimized beyond belief as you are about to learn here.

“Pushed her, shoved her, gouged her eye, choked her…”

Posted on the Jon Entine page of Truthwiki.org, an exhaustive series of publicly-available PDF documents from the courts of Hamilton County, Ohio state that Jon Entine physically assaulted his wife. He “…became very belligerent and aggressive toward Plaintiff [his wife]. He pushed her, shoved her, gouged her eye, choked her and pushed her into the porch column. He slammed the door and refused to release [their daughter]. Plaintiff finally called the Indian Hill Rangers…” (See screen shots below from the court documents provided under oath…)

SOURCE: Jon Entine public divorce document #12 which begins with Case # DR0500131 and File # E233969 in the Court of Common Pleas, Hamilton County, Ohio. See page 19 of the PDF document.

Entine’s wife, Ellen Turner, then sought a court order requiring Jon Entine to attend “anger management classes.” She further described Entine as “irrational and unpredictable” and warned the courts that his bizarre behavior “appears to be escalating.” (See court documents below.)

Eyes gouged… choked and shoved…

Here’s the screen shot from the court document describing how Jon Entine violently attacked his wife and held his own daughter captive from her:

(Condensed screen shot)

The following paragraph, also found in the court document PDFs shown on the Jon Entine Truthwiki page, revealed how Ellen Turner was “assaulted by [Jon Entine]. This occurred in the presence of [their daughter] who has been psychologically traumatized as a result. [Daughter] is afraid of [Jon Entine]… he has become increasingly and exceedingly hostile and belligerent. [The wife] fears that [Entine's] mental health has deteriorated…”

Indeed, this pattern of belligerent, violent behavior is exactly what we find reflected in Jon Entine’s activities as a journalist. Myself and other GMO skeptics have been torturously harassed, falsely accused and relentlessly defamed by Jon Entine who has convinced publications like Forbes.com to publish his abusive hit pieces laced with hate-filled false accusations and wholly fabricated claims. By allowing Jon Entine to publish articles on its website, Forbes.com is quite literally condoning a form of deranged hate speech and empowering the voice of a person whose own wife describes him as committing violence against women and engaging in domestic violence and child abuse. (See court documents, below.)

Restraining orders from a terrified wife

Jon Entine’s public court documents describe Entine as a deranged, mentally unstable individual who routinely uses belligerence and threats to bully his selected enemies (or destroy them).

In January of 2005, Entine’s then wife Ellen Turner sought a restraining order against him that demanded he refrain from physically injuring her person or abusing their child:

The order states: (abbreviated)

WHEREBY, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT:

Physically, verbally and / or psychologically abusing, annoying, harassing or injuring [Ellen Turner] or the minor child of the parties…

Domestic violence / child abuse provisions invoked by Jon Entine’s wife

Following the violent attacks described under oath by Jon Entine’s wife, she pleaded with the courts to protect herself and her daughter from any further violence, court documents show.

Filed with Hamilton County Clerk Gergory Hartmann, Case # DR0500131, Ellen Turner asserted: (bold added)

I have filed at 3109.27 Affidavit and have specifically addressed therein the child abuse / neglect / domestic violence physical harm provisions of O.R.C. 3109.04, 3109.051 and 3109.052 as those statutes pertain to both parents and this case.
