Mystery Man or Felon?

Lee Blackcinder. Who is he, really?

By Isabo Baxton

Sinners Bay, May 9, 2011 – Lee Blackcinder, local bounty hunter was recently been identified by a Second Life Bureau of Investigation (SLBI) agent as being the fake identity of former marine Sgt. Hannibal Smith.

The former Marine was stationed at Camp Lejeune in North Carolina during the 1980s. In March of 1991, Blackcinder/Smith was tried and convicted for killing an officer sometime during December of 1990. Several members of his squad witnessed Blackcinder/Smith repeatedly stabbing his commanding officer, Lt. Robert Hanscomb and shouting, “Merry Christmas! (expletive deleted)”.

Smith was sentenced to life imprisonment in Ft. Leavenworth, Kansas. On July 4, 1997, Smith (Blackcinder) and 7 others escape from their maximum security wing during a raucous 4^th of July celebration. Only 2 of the escapees were recaptured.

Smith (Blackcinder) resurfaced as yet another alias, Mark Black, in 2000 during a drug war over methamphetamine trafficking in Oregon. He was rumored to be a high ranking member of the West Coast Oregon Pagan Motorcycle Club chapter. After 13 members of the rival gang died after a series of fire bombings in rural areas of Oregon, Blackcinder disappeared, once again eluding authorities.

Sometime during 2009, Smith/Black/now Blackcinder reappeared in Sinners Bay claiming to be a bounty hunter. The Daily Sinner interview several of his targets and all but one of them claimed he used “excessive force” in subduing them. Interestingly, the majority of his female targets claim to have been sexually molested but refuse to testify against him for fear of reprisals.

The following account is by a victim who, for reasons for her safety, is known only as “Lori”.

“Hello, my name is Lori and I'm twenty two years old. I was on a road trip with a couple of my friends for spring break. I had to take a ferry that would lead me to a city where my friends were located but unfortunately, I fell asleep on the ride and ended up in a city called Sinners Bay but the town seemed so peaceful that I didn't expect anything to go wrong. Lee Blackcinder, took me to a bar in Sinners Bay. I drank a bit too much beer.

"I wasn't aware of what was going on when we went to his "lair". I never thought that he would ever harm me. He seemed like such a nice guy. Well, I was so wrong. He shoved me in his dungeon, ripped off my clothes, and used me in a sexually deviant manner. I was just beginning my life journey and he turned it upside down for me. I feel like part of what makes me who I am was stripped off of me.” At this point the interview ended due to the hysterical sobbing of the nameless victim and this writer’s complete lack of compassion.

Anyone having additional information about Blackcinder’s past should contact the Daily Sinner and the police department as soon as possible. Do not approach him as he is considered armed and dangerous.
