For the last 2 years I have been covering Jessie Czebotar and her rise from obscurity to being an internet influencer. The chaplain has developed into SRA victim/whistleblower/Federal whistleblower/Federal witness/author/illuminati MOD/survivor and so on. From research, most of these titles are false and much of her enterprises she operates under the guise of ministry, offer no public accounting since her Ministry, Illuminate the Darkness LLC, is a for profit corporation.
So far I have not dug too deeply into her followers. They are immensely important and she would remain the obscure chaplain if not for them. They are on Twitter and other social media platforms playing a combination of defense and offense for her. Some are radicalized and rabid in their defense, seeming to lack any empathy for any hurt they project. Others are probably well meaning believers, but as stated above these devoted folks don’t think critically and their needs for a hero to lead them through the morass of troubled days are satisfied. By and large, they are her support group and keep her operation financed with donations, book and merchandise purchasing and workshop events.

In modern English, a cult is a social group that is defined by its unusual religious, spiritual, or philosophical beliefs and rituals, or its common interest in a particular personality, object, or goal.
Wikipedia
Christians are searching for something. Something extra. Something missing in their relationship with Jesus Christ. And if it leads them to someone they find admirable and trustworthy they will follow this person and follow blindly. Even if this person has grave moral flaws, is practicing a multiple level fraud and leading people astray with false teaching. The feeling is good as long as it lasts. How quickly a Christian is parted from his book of doctrine, the Bible, by people such as this.
This is what we see in Jessie Czebotar Illuminate the Darkness ministry if one will choose to look.
The Presentation
First off is how poorly composed a large part of the video really is. Apparently, the camera was set up and focused on the white board. There is no panning and should have been since Jessie quite often walks out of the frame. You can hear her talking and occasionally see a hand or arm flutter on the side. For the audience paying $400 a seat to be there for the taping, this will not affect them but the camera should have had a photographer positioned to pan back and forth as Jessie moves about. It’s a bad look and not helped by the presenter being as poorly dressed as one would be for going to a garage sale.
At the beginning, Jessie Czebotar tells the familiar story of her origins. Born into a satanic bloodline family at the age of 4.5 years she was chosen to be a “Mother of Darkness,” one of five MoD’s, the high rulers of the Illuminati. At age 10 long after she accepted Jesus as Lord and Savior, she left. There are a lot of holes in this story explored here and elsewhere, and it is told from her perspective only, with no proof given or corroborating witnesses.
This is of no importance to the folks paying $400 to watch the show. Critical thinking is not their thing.
It’s not long before Jessie needs to talk about something horrible. At the 30:18 mark, the death story of Grace, an 8 year old girl murdered because Jessie decided not to participate in torture and murder rituals. Her broken and bloody body is cast into her arms where the child dies. She feels responsible for this horrific tragedy from her denial of participating in diabolical ceremonies.
It is of note how Jessie can tell such a horrific and traumatic story with the ease of how one would discuss an ordinary life event. There is no torment in her eyes. She expresses no emotion; does not shed a tear; her voice maintains a dull tone that never wavers. It is as if she is discussing a casual event. It’s a common trait of hers available in all of her horror stories and does not add any validity to her narrative. Like everything else, it’s a tale with her as the soul witness. Her whole backstory is like this.
And so because of this event she begins her count of all the children being killed. This starts at 29:47 minutes in, where she relates the total figure of 136,000 kids. In her own words, “I saw them die in front of my face.” It’s a stunning figure. Stunning to the point of being hard to believe. Who has the time for this or the psychological strength to survive viewing this trauma? It certainly raises a host of questions. My first one is where did she ever think this would be a believable figure? This would be an industrial level murder operation such as the Nazi’s employed. Where do the bodies go? Jessie has a story for that too. The ashes of the dead are processed into diamonds.
Just a side note. Jessie has been telling the story of witnessing child ritualistic murders for years. She started out with her Proctor (grandmother Clara Church) killing 10,000 children a month. Then in June of 2022 said the total number was 36,000. Now the latest figure is 136,000. It’s unknown why the numbers keep growing or how she expects people to believe these stories.
But questions remain. How high can a child count starting at 4.5 years old? Can she recall any names? The poor doomed Grace has no surname. If so memorable of an event, as it surely would be, why not provide her name and report the murder to authorities? Or tell the family for closure? Jessie tells hazy stories. This is just another tale from a master fibber with nothing to investigate.
The Teaching
I will only touch on Jessie’s teaching in brief. While she does talk of some Biblical truths, there is much in regards to esoteric symbolism and ideas that are unsourced (as much of her talk is). Some statements are clearly unbiblical. Other points are complex and not clearly presented. This is supposed to be a Christian teaching workshop but one presented without a Bible in hand with quotes rarely sourced or used to explain a teaching.
An issue in point is her teaching on breathing. Jessie tells us that to exhale and to inhale are positive and negative sounds. She has a wave pattern and illustrates up nodes and down nodes with it which is worth one octave of a musical note. In turn they represent Angels on one side and fallen angels on the other. Then somehow, this is connected to the “7 tones of the Holy Spirit.” Here is where Jessie’s teaching leaves the Bible completely
The New Testament Paul addresses the 9 gifts of the Holy Spirit in 1 Corinthians 12:1; 8-11. There are no tones mentioned anywhere in Scripture. Are these tones different or are all the same? Jessie never says. Where does she get this from, her childhood esoteric teaching? Likewise, the aforementioned breathing symbolism is illustrated with angels, demons, up and down nodes, octaves and so on. Ideas are also not found in Scripture and she never identifies her source.
This is a teaching much like the anointing of an oil project she started. Her followers were out anointing things for safety, such as their car tires. You will know the truth no matter what anyone says if you go by Scripture and get verification through God’s Word. And sadly many Christians don’t.
In Closing
At the end of the video Jessie is among the gathering of the participants for where she encourages them to speak in tongues. She starts and the crowd follows suit. Frankly, it’s unsettling to say the least. I wonder if it is a real experience being portrayed. Apostle Paul stated in 1 Corinthians 14:13, if one speaks in tongues then pray that he may also interpret. In this instance, this was not done. Jessie did return to speaking normally but something about it was off putting.
If you have seen a lot of Jessie’s video appearances there is not much new here, at least not in this example. Better to save your $400 and just watch the videos for free.
(I should point out that I was going to post a clip of Jessie speaking in tongues but decided against it. Something in my spirit said, NO. Proceed at your own risk and prayerfully consider watching it in the full video, link below.)

9 Gifts
While I have concluded that Jessie Czebotar is a out to deceive the public with false claims to bolster her constant fund raising and to issue false teachings of Christian doctrine, it is still amazing to watch how people take her seriously and do so without questioning what they are being told. Many have broken loose and can’t believe how deeply they were deceived. Such is the way of cults. She is in many ways a slicker, more financially savvy version of Sherry Shriner who led an online cult that ruined many lives of her followers.
I have documented here, Jessie performing such stunts as deciphering Satanic runes and symbols taken from a video game; claiming to have been issued a false subpoena; claiming that a fictional character in a hoax is a real person she has met; bills herself as a chaplain but never names the healthcare companies she worked for; places herself in a picture shot in 1899 and when exposed, says her critics are to blame. This and other activities of hers have been outed here on this blog.
As with all things Jessie Czebotar, even conventional tasks are peculiar; there are some intriguing issues with her Illuminate The Darkness LCC. As usual, there is nothing about her and her actions that are normal.
Multiple Web Sites
So it starts with illuminatethedarkness.com. Originally featured with everything you need to know about Jessie and her ministry it is now a donation site. The original content with articles, video and podcast links has been moved to illuminatethedarkness.online. (There is also a illuminatethedarkness.org, but it is not part of the ministry and belongs to a public charity.)
Illuminate The Darkness is not a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. No Form 990 will be filed and all donations will not be tax deductible. All financial transactions are private. The current LLC (Limited Liability Corporation) designation was established in January of this year. Interesting, since her operation has been ongoing for over 2 years. Why now?
Always Issues
In my research of Jessie Czebotar, her ministry and related issues, there is always something peculiar with nearly everything she does. Even the people that work for her or her online allies. In this case, even the names of people associated with her.
The LLC
Illuminate The Darkness LCC was established on January 19, 2022. Agent listed is Kelly Kuchler of New Orleans, LA. Around this time Jessie Czebotar was named as manager, along with Linda Olson and Tina Goodman listed as officers/members. The LLC is registered by the Louisiana Secretary Of State, Commercial Division, state of Louisiana with a P.O. address in Fargo, North Dakota.
I do not believe in doxing people nor do I engage in it. Jessie claims that Illuminati assassins are out to kill her. In light of this, I will not post her residential address but it is a part of the public record filed in the state of Louisiana which anyone can look up on the links below. So I will post her publicly documented city and state—Fargo, North Dakota.
However, there are some issues in the residence she claims. It’s a condo built in 2013 and sold the same year. It is currently off market and not a rental. And it certainly doesn’t appear to resemble the house pictures she posted last year. Does she live in a condo that is owned by somebody else that is not a rental property? Perhaps a friend? Or just listing a street address as cover from perceived enemies? Whatever, all information listed in a government filing with documentation is required by law to be true. It’s unclear if she lives at this address since it is not owned by her and not a rental.
In an odd twist, two of these women have issues with their names. A deeper search finds that agent Kelly Kuchler’s first name is actually Helen. Yet she goes by Kelly everywhere from all of her social media to documents filed with the State of Louisiana. Even her home for kids with HIV in India has Kelly on. I considered Kelly might be a middle name till I found the initial of D (Deluca?). Regardless, Kelly is not her actual first name and it’s unclear what her purpose is for doing this.
Tina Goodman goes by a different surname of Goodmund. Why do this? I thought perhaps it was a German variation, but the closest find was Gudmund which is Swedish. I went through two different people search sites and came up with the same result reading the two surnames. Also peculiar is her residential address listed is actually the location of the Post Office in Fargo. Illuminate The Darkness already has a post office box and it is a different box number than the one listed on Goodman/Goodmund’s address. Until one digs deeper it would not be apparent she was posting a business location instead of a residence.
What Is Going On Here?
Since Jessie is not going the nonprofit route for her ministry she establishes a privately owned Limited Liability Company. There will be no public accountability with her never ending grifting. Such is her way of keeping secrets, issuing vague stories with little background and requiring the masses to follow her without question. And don’t question or you will get blocked on social media. A cult leader never had it so good.
It is apparent that a lot of peculiar things are going on with Illuminate The Darkness LLC. Two of the women associated with the LLC have issues with their names and one with her address. Jessie maintains her status as a whistle blower working against the dark powers of the Illuminati, and claims to have thwarted assassination attempts on her life (never reported to law enforcement). However, by establishing a public record of an LLC in Fargo, North Dakota she just let them know where she may be living, exposing herself. With her background of constant deception I maintain she is just using tales of personal danger as part of her psyop. The condo she is using as a residence she does not own and it is not a rental property. Some may say she is using the address as a cover, but certainly not a mail-drop because her LLC already had a post office address for that.
If you desire to finance this grifting scheme of hers, that is your right. But be informed first. Don’t believe everything you are told. Double check the links here.
Notes
Helen D Kuchler has numerous alases using the names of Dekuchler, Delucakuchler and Deluca. Apparently, she uses variations of Kuchler with Deluca.
Nothing ill-regular regarding Linda Olson was found.
When Bishop Larry Gaiters was reporting on Jessie in his videos last year he said Jessie was living with a man and a woman named Tina. Tina Goodman/Goodmund? So far, no verification of this.
Officers Tina Goodman (Goodmund) and Linda Olson are listed as members, not employees. It is unknown what their actual job duties are.
Illuminate The Darkness LLC business address is a post office box in Fargo, ND but the LLC registration is in New Orleans, LA.

The Cult of Jessie video series
| Jessie Czebotar and Lucien Greaves (Image use under CCL) |
Much has been said on this blog and on social media regarding Jessie Czebotar and her public relationship with the co-founder of the Satanic Temple Lucien Greaves. What follows are many of the important screen captures of those public conversations. Many of these Tweets posted here have been removed since it shows the alleged chaplain saying one thing to her Christian base and another agenda with her Satanist friend.
No commentary here; just the words.
~0~
For some time now, off and on, Jessie Czebotar, alleged chaplain, whistleblower, SRA survivor has been posting cryptic messages with an image of poker cards, various images and Bible verses. The tweets will include a link to Lady Gaga’s Poker Face song. Surprisingly, for someone that calls herself a Christian chaplain, the song contains sexual references, innuendo and vulgar language. Her followers seem confused and unable to comprehend the meaning even though a few question her thinking (see below). They also make no mention of the Gaga song having vulgar content. Jessie meanwhile makes no effort to explain her meaning in these tweets.
It seems that “Poker Face” is a fitting analogy for the way Jessie carries herself in her videos. Many people are in agreement that she appears cold and detached. How can someone who says she has witnessed the ritualistic killings of a 1,000 children a month talk of this without shedding a tear? Or any number of horrible tortures and be devoid of any hint of remorse or sadness in her countenance? Even the death of her 17 year old son in a car accident left her fronting a stoic presence and she quickly resumed her daily tweeting and weekly video appearances. (For those of us who have lost loved ones through accidents it is hard to talk of them without shedding tears.) This certainly makes her look tough and even heroic, but at what cost? Is this real? It’s not the normal behavior of a grieving person suffering so great a loss.
| Jessie's post and some replies. |
Poker Face (© 2008 by Lady Gaga and RedOne)
My analysis comments are in bold, with the lyrics in italics to Lady Gaga’s Poker Face.
I wanna hold 'em like they do in Texas, please (Woo)
Fold 'em, let 'em hit me, raise it, baby, stay with me (I love it) LoveGame intuition, play the cards with spades to start
And after he's been hooked, I'll play the one that's on his heart I wanna roll with him, a hard pair we will be (Woo)
A poker face is one that displays little hint of what is going on beneath it. Great for playing cards or being cross examined in a trial; not for being transparent. No doubt she has a poker face concealing her intentions uses it often. Here she is playing a game she enjoys. In this instance, fooling people and winning.
“Playing spades to start,” is how she has conducted herself from the beginning. Starting small and calling herself Jane. “And after he's been hooked…” she tells compelling stories of terror, abuse and redemption to build her Heroic legend and “hook” her followers in.
A little gamblin' is fun when you're with me (I love it, woo)
Russian roulette is not the same without a gun
And baby, when it's love, if it's not rough, it isn't fun, fun
I'll get him hot, show him what I've got.
Jessie is a gambler. Gambling with lying and seeing how far she can go and keep her fan base and her support team, and hence her cash flow, flowing.
Russian roulette is the acknowledgment of the perilous game she is playing and with the dangerous people that support her in the upper hierarchy.
Can't read my, can't read my
No, he can't read my poker face
(She's got me like nobody)
Can't read my, can't read my
No, he can't read my poker face
(She's got me like nobody)
Here she is being extremely confident that no one can read her poker face while she is fooling people. But pride comes before a fall and some of us can read the poker face.
I won't tell you that I love you
Kiss or hug you
'Cause I'm bluffin' with my muffin
I'm not lyin', I'm just stunnin' with my love-glue-gunnin'
Just like a chick in the casino
Take your bank before I pay you out
I promise this, promise this
Check this hand 'cause I'm marvelous
Jessie thinks she is marvelous. Narcissistic? She’s bluffing her followers and revels in taking their donated money to the “bank”. She loves it.
Notes
The post-chorus, “Poker Face, F——— her face” has been omitted due to lack of relevance.
From Wikipedia:
“‘Poker Face’ was acclaimed by most critics, who praised the song's robotic hook and chorus. The song attained worldwide success, topping the charts in 20 countries including the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and many European countries. ‘Poker Face’ was the best-selling single of 2009 worldwide, with over 9.5 million in sales that year. It is one of the best-selling singles of all time, having sold over 14 million copies. The accompanying music video for the song portrays Gaga singing it in various costumes and playing strip poker in a getaway villa. It was certified Diamond by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in 2015.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poker_Face_(song)

I’ve written about the picture before (LINK), the one in which Jessie Czebotar claims to be with two other girls drawing pentagrams. It was supposed to be part of her training to be a leading member of the Illuminati. An online researcher Barbara Roberts was the first to post on Twitter the alternate version of the image, the one above, showing girls drawing circles on a blackboard, without pentagrams. It was an image published in an educational art instruction manual in 1901.
It was the beginning of my belief that Jessie was a fraud. She uses this image a lot and in two video interviews on May 14, she backtracked a bit saying she had a distant childhood memory of being in a similar photograph, dressed in turn of the century period clothes..
Digging in I found this book was in publication as a reprint and ordered it at Amazon. It arrived recently and as I and others have suspected it’s three girls drawing circles. Just as in the online image scan.
The images are rough. The press plates are long gone and the book had to be scanned. Scanning printed halftones are hard, hence the graininess and washed out highlights and contrast. However, enough detail remains to show there are no pentagrams in the image.
Jessie has said she ordered copies of the pages involving the image from the Library of Congress. But she has never shown scans of the pages, suggesting that others can do this as well and compare them to what she has. Only she has never released her copies. As can be seen in the image above, my reissue has the LOC stamp and 1901 printed on the copyright page. Jessie would have to know this as well, hence her never showing her copies since she knows the pictures she has do not show pentagrams.
In Closing
So there you have it. It turns out to be a dumb stunt. As if nobody was ever going to find the original source picture? Jessie Czebotar’s claim of being in this picture is obviously false. It’s too old, the castle she mentions does not exist and the alleged photographer Cisco Wheeler was yet to be born when the photo was taken. If you don’t believe it just order a copy from Amazon.
Of course this will not settle it for Jessie’s growing band of followers who have gotten increasingly agitated with my blog posts and other researchers who are calling her out on Twitter. They believe no criticism of Jessie is valid and attack critics as haters, liars, mockers, etc. Their behavior is cultish and they are getting more aggressive and making hints of violence and spiritual annihilation as this tweet shows:
Beware your idols. They ultimately fail.
Notes
It should be noted that the reprinted version published in 2015 had some layout changes. For example the image of the girls is on the left hand page; in the original from 1901 the images are on the right hand page. Nevertheless, the page number, illustration number and image are the same. As already stated, if you believe this is in error, buy your own copy from the link below. You are always going to get a picture of three girls drawing circles from the turn of the last century.
5.24.21
There is a notion that this was intentionally done. Luciferians and for that matter, intel operators are masters at spy craft, diversion, miss direction and adding in a dose of lying, mocking, and side talk into absurd accusations. Just read the Twitter thread with Barbara Roberts debating these people. One of Jessie’s flunkies used a picture that clearly wasn’t the one with the three girls in it. They want to you to respond to a preposterous claim, a method of wearing down the debater in rubbish. Which Barbara responded to, which is what they want.
6.12.21
For over a year now Jessie has been saying she was in the 1901 photo drawing a pentagram with two other girls. Now in a surprising turn around, she is claiming her critics are “falsely claiming” she drew the images. Amazing! It's another lie. Just see the picture above where she claims to be the middle girl in the picture. And more than once, as she has been leaving a digital Twitter trail saying she was drawing them! She uses the picture in all of her media. Notice the misuse of pentagram as “pentacales,” which is misspelled but means pentagram.
7.30.21
Keep in mind there is more than one falsehood going on with the picture. In her lengthy article Veronica Swift ignores numerous falsehoods attributed by Jessie. One, the Laurie Cabot Kent castle does not exist. Two, Cisco Wheeler did not take the picture. And three, the pentagrams were added by some unknown graphic artist. All three issues totally ignored. And to think she calls Jessie critics bad researchers.
7.31.21
One of my more nastier critics is Veronica Swift. She is a diehard Jessie supporter. I have proven many times what a relentless liar Jessie is and apparently, she attracts sycophants such as Veronica to wage propaganda attacks against myself and other critics. No, I don't engage in opinion only, as she once opined about me. It's not an opinion to state the fact that Somerset Belenoff is an internet hoax and Jessie says she met this woman. Nor is it an opinion to point out that Jessie's decoding of Satanic symbols is a cheeky con job using graphics from the Ghostbusters video game.
It's interesting how often you can point out contractions, lack of evidence to support claims, outright falsehoods, and the Jessie cult engages in false personal attacks (hater, paid troll, working for the cabal, etc.) ignoring presented facts. Veronica even went so far in her Twitter feed to suggest ways of influencing Blogspot to suspend my blog for alleged slander. Typically, these cultists have no understanding of the definition of slander and I have done no such thing. Free speech for me, but not for thee...
Obviously troubled, Veronica conducted a deep dive on her blog Lifting the Wool in a piece entitled, Do Pictures Lie?, into the 1901 picture and the surrounding and never ending controversy, i.e., that Jessie was in the picture when it is provable that she is not. In a very long piece it was fascinating to see the depths she went, and everywhere she traveled she ran into the same wall--the wall that she had been duped with and her inability to resolve it. It was as if she was digging to find one piece of evidence that would correct and overturn the whole thing--but to no avail. She failed. While it is a very well written exploration of this issue, it bears no resolution because the picture is a Jessie fiction.
Veronica Swift's of the world just cannot handle the truth.
