This post, composed in 2017 while the writer was in two-year court battle, was unearthed and published in 2023 a short while after the writer discovered Michael Honeycutt had retired from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. His employee, Tiffany Bredfeldt, also appears to no longer be on the Texas state payroll.
“While we do agree with EPA on being precautious in areas where we don’t have good science, we strongly believe that good science should not be ignored and should trump EPA’s overuse of precaution.”
—Dr. Michael Honeycutt, Ph.D.
“If you refer to someone as a tit, you consider them to be stupid….”
—BBC English Dictionary
Breakdown: Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) Toxicology Director Michael Honeycutt believes “good science should not be ignored” and should “trump…overuse of precaution.”
TCEQ Toxicology Director Michael Honeycutt, whose complacently jowly smile and protuberant paunch speak deli cases about his personal standards of rigor, has reproached the EPA for not being exacting. Dr. Honeycutt likes the sound of his own voice. His online bio says he “serves as an expert witness in public and state legislative hearings…and has conducted hundreds of media interviews.” In 2013, Dr. Honeycutt testified against the author of this post, whom he has never met, by telephone, and was helpful, if not instrumental, in one of his staff member’s procuring an unlawful judgment against the writer that was this year struck down by one of Arizona’s high courts.
The sentiment is ironic to this writer’s ear, because thanks in part to testimony from Dr. Honeycutt, I was lamed by a court injunction for four years that was this month acknowledged to be unconstitutional. Honeycutt testified to an Arizona Superior Court judge on May 20, 2013, that the writer had “propositioned” one of his underlings, senior toxicologist Tiffany Bredfeldt, “wouldn’t take no for an answer,” and ““had been harassing her ever since [2006] .” He also told the court that Dr. Bredfeldt was afforded special protections by his agency, the TCEQ, to safeguard her against attack.
[W]e removed her office location from our directory, our online directory, so that she would not be easy to find. Her office location is not listed. We added Mr. Greene’s e-mail address to our agency’s e-mail filtering system so that his e-mails would not come into the agency. We added his website to our agency web—web filtering system so that agency computers can’t access his website. We notified our agency security guards about this and provided them a picture of Mr. Greene so that he can’t enter the TCEQ building, and we moved Tiffany from a cubicle. She had been in a cubicle. We moved her into an office with hard walls and with a door that has a lock on it.
Nothing histrionic about that precaution. If the walls had been padded, it might even have been a reasonable one. Asked about the basis for this precaution, Honeycutt told the court he “didn’t ask for details.” He reckoned a second-hand account was goodnuff science. I live in Arizona, have never been to Texas, and have had no contact with Bredfeldt in over a decade.
The reason for Honeycutt’s involvement was that I’d told him, among many others, that Bredfeldt was a liar. In other words, I reached out to people of influence for support…six years ago.
Honeycutt reportedly did something similar in 2016. Naveena Sadasivam reported in the Texas Observer last August that “Honeycutt sent at least 100 emails to state air pollution regulators, university professors and industry representatives and lawyers asking them to send the EPA a letter supporting his nomination to the Clean Air Science Advisory Committee (CASAC)….” Probably none of them prosecuted him for harassment or otherwise sought to have him silenced on pain of imprisonment. A few may even have considered what he had to say.
Honeycutt’s protégé, Dr. Tiffany, a former cheerleader and sorority girl (who extols a Keanu Reeves movie in an online review as “[e]ye candy for the mind!”), is a woman I routinely found hanging around my house at all hours in 2005, and my own home is the only place I’ve ever encountered her outside of a courtroom. She was then Mrs. Bredfeldt but represented herself as a Miss (and took care never to use her last name at all) while, for example, seeking my protection from nighttime“stalkers,” scolding me for not inviting her in at 12:30 in the morning, and wagging her face in front of mine as if to tease a kiss. I haven’t had any contact with the person since 2006, when she perpetrated a hoax on the police and multiple courts to cover up her extramarital hijinks. Bredfeldt, who has a Ph.D. in science, has repeatedly sued me over a 10-year period to maintain that hoax. She has besides “talked to more people at police departments, sheriffs’ departments, and federal and state agencies than [she] can count,” she told the court last year.
I began 2016 by being issued a restraining order petitioned by one of Bredfeldt’s pets, a scientist named Jennifer Terpstra. It was tossed on appeal (over a year later). The same day, I was arrested and told I would be prosecuted by Bredfeldt and Terpstra on two counts of criminal harassment, which threatened a year’s incarceration. The case was (seven months) later dropped over a courtroom lunch break. In March 2016, Bredfeldt sued me in civil court to have me jailed for contempt of the 2013 order Honeycutt helped orchestrate. The proceedings were stayed pending appeal in July, and the 2013 order was this year determined illegal, and the matter was terminated. In April and May of 2016, Terpstra, who told the police in January that she was carrying a gun to shoot me with, brought a number of “copyright infringement” claims against this site, which caused it to be suspended for a month (in the first of them, she included her home address). Terpstra declined to litigate her claims when I contested her charges and alleged perjury. In December of last year, Terpstra’s lawyer told the court she had quit her job of a decade or more at the University of Arizona and moved to Texas, where Bredfeldt has lived since 2006.
Bredfeldt, who hasn’t received so much as a rap on the knuckles, has gotten by with a little help from her friends—like Mike. (Other current or former administrative staff at TCEQ who were put in the loop in 2011 are Dorca Zaragoza-Stone, Patti Machac, and Dr. Roberta Grant. It’s unlikely that Honeycutt’s decision to testify against me in 2013 was made unilaterally.)
[Court-ordered limitations imposed in 2013 on my First Amendment right to expose Bredfeldt for what she is were shitcanned a year after this post was originally composed in 2017.]
The documentary evidence here, which includes sworn testimony by Drs. Bredfeldt and Honeycutt, may be downloaded and/or quoted by anyone. See Phoenix Newspapers, Inc. v. Superior Court In & For Maricopa Cty., 101 Ariz. 257 (1966): “A trial is a public event. What transpires in the court room is public property.”
As Dr. Honeycutt urges, “[G]ood science should not be ignored.”
