Kimberly Phillips and Christopher Vaughn met at miniature golf course
-------- "They met at a miniature golf course in suburban St. Louis -- she was with a friend whose family owned the course, and he was there with his brother scooping up the balls as a side job. That was in St. Charles, Mo., about 1993. A year later, Kimberly Phillips and Christopher Vaughn were young newlyweds. It was something of an opposites-attract kind of relationship, her family says."

Christopher Vaughn Family Moved from Saint Charles to Saint Peters Missouri
-------- "They [Christopher and Kimberly] married only a year after he graduated, and their first child—level-headed, artistic Abigayle—was born in December 1994, followed 15 months later by Cassandra, a fun-loving ham. Blake, sweet and bookish, was born in 1999.

That was about the time that the young family moved to a new subdivision in St. Peters, Mo., neighbors said. There, they made an impression that would be repeated again and again. Kimberly Vaughn was seen as a devoted mother and chatty friend. Her husband doted on her, but otherwise kept to himself. When he did interact with the neighbors, it could be unpleasant.

Leonard, [Leonard Robert A and Misty D] the old classmate of Kimberly Vaughn who happened to live in the same subdivision, [141 Hollow Creek Dr, St Peters, Mo 63376 - purchased 5/22/2000] said he was hammering in his garage about 9:30 p.m. one night when Christopher Vaughn [201 Lazy Hollow Ct, St Peters, Mo 63376] came over in a rage and confronted Leonard's wife about the noise, nearly reducing her to tears."

Similar Business Name of StoneBridge Securities LLC was incorporated in Washington in March, 1999 by Jeffrey Huey



Christopher Vaughn registered StoneBridge Security in Washington
4 years later on December 8, 2003
-------- "I remembered something I saw linked from an archived version of StoneBridgeSecurity.com. What I’d recalled was this .pdf, titled “StoneBridge Consulting Services.” Vaughn had uploaded two different versions of the document over the years — the first in 2003, then an updated doc in 2005 (links go to documents I’ve downloaded from the archived versions of the site and then uploaded to my own servers). Metadata attached to each .pdf indicated they were originally authored by Vaughn as Word documents then converted to .pdfs. Vaughn created the brochures as “C.D. Vaughn” in 2003, then “zdvaughn” — yes, a “z,” that’s not a misprint — in 2005.

As a result, I found that some of the text in Christopher Vaughn’s old StoneBridge Services document was identical to text found on webpages run by this firm — BluWater Consulting (http://bluwater.com/). The BluWater Consulting page about Digital Forensic analysis in particular had the exact same text as page 4 of the StoneBridge .pdf.

Then I noted that BluWater was based in Washington State, just as Christopher Vaughn had been for a time. I also recalled that Chris Vaughn had done work in computer security for financial institutions. So the Advisory Team page for BluWater having — until early 2005 — a listing for someone who worked for a StoneBridge Securities LLC somehow made some sense.

It made more sense upon seeing the old board members page for BluWater — on that page was a Jeffrey Huey — the same name as the man who incorporated StoneBridge Securities LLC in Washington in March, 1999.

Christopher Vaughn registered StoneBridge Security with the State 4 years later."

Washington State
Neighbors remember the Vaughns
-------- "In 2001, according to public records, the family sold their house in St. Peters and moved to Sammamish, Wash., an outpost of Seattle just up the road from the headquarters of Microsoft. That's where Christopher Vaughn got a private investigator's license and set up a company, StoneBridge Security, that specialized in preventing cyber-crimes. Neighbor Kelly Taylor said he appeared to be successful, winning contracts from banks to keep their Internet transactions safe. "Christopher was very well-known for being good at what he did, because there are not a lot of those kind of people out there," Taylor said."

Washington State
Neighbors remember the Vaughns
-------- "The family lived in a clapboard house on a cul-de-sac set among towering pines—a friendly, kid-oriented neighborhood where Kimberly Vaughn showed an exceptional devotion to her children. She helped out at their elementary school and kept an eye on them when they played outside. She was "very serious about being a mother," said neighbor Chris Tubbs. "She didn't take that role lightly, that was very clear."She was also gabby and affable, a distinct contrast to her husband. Neighbor Trish Brock said Christopher Vaughn would keep to himself at gatherings, and at times she detected darker notes in the couple's relationship."

Washington State
Neighbors remember the Vaughns
-------- "Another neighbor, Kim Moynihan, said Kimberly Vaughn once looked into an internship to learn the ropes of forensic investigations, but dropped the idea when her husband wanted her to stay with the children.

But Taylor [Neighbor Kelly Taylor] said Christopher Vaughn was the opposite of controlling—mellow, accepting and kind to his children. Neighbors said Vaughn, an enthusiastic outdoorsman, tried to interest his wife in his hobbies by taking her to a shooting range and a bow-hunting expedition. "She actually put on the camouflage outfit and poured the deer pee on her head and went out and roughed it for a couple of days," Taylor said."

Washington State
Neighbors remember the Vaughns
-------- "When Christopher and Kimberly Vaughn lived in Washington state several years ago, he was an old-fashioned husband who expected her to have dinner ready on time and to keep the children in line. But there was one thing Kimberly Vaughn insisted on: She wanted her husband, a licensed private investigator, to keep his handgun in his Jeep, not in their home, said a close friend from their time in Sammamish, Wash. Brock, who described herself as one of Kimberly Vaughn's best friends in Washington state, said Kimberly had wanted to be a private investigator like her husband -- but loathed guns. "He took her to a firing range here in Washington, and she hated it," Brock said. "She wasn't good at it. She wanted to be a private investigator. She said I can still do that without having a permit to carry a sidearm."

Christopher Vaughn's
Benjamin Franklin
E-Mail to employees
-------- From anonymous: (Provided the “Benjamin Franklin” memo that Vaughn sent early on when he joined the company.)

"From: C.D. Vaughn
Sent: 8/11/2002
Subject: Dedication.

“The main reason I chose to come to Breakwater is because of what its been through. Most small companies have not “been there and done that”. They are still learning and making the big mistakes. We as a company with enormous experience and wisdom regarding what it takes to run a small business. Paired with the potential for greatness Breakwater is truly a gem in the rough.

However, this is where it becomes a bit more complicated. Whether you believe it or not everything, you do impacts the company as a whole. No matter how small or seemingly insignificant. Here is a applicable quote: “A little neglect may breed great mischief; for want of a nail the shoe was lost; for want of a shoe the horse was lost; and for want of a horse the rider was lost.” Benjamin Franklin I know and understand you have all been through a lot. You have all contributed much. However if your focus has faded, your dedication faltered, or your heart is not into Breakwater 100% you are only hurting the rest of us.

The company is in the best condition it has been in quite some time. Revenue is growing steadily, booked business is growing, and utilization is at an all time high. “Person Name Deleted” has decided to leave the team. His last day was this past Friday. After personally spending the last two months ensuring higher utilization and better overall organization within the engineering ranks his departure comes as a particularly sharp shock. He decided to take an easy exit instead of sticking with it to help drive momentum within Breakwater. This was his choice based on what he felt he could and needed to do. However, regardless of what anyone did last week, last month, or last year, tomorrow will bring new challenges and requiring new focus and more effort. Teamwork is the key to success."

Anonymous Blogger comments about Christopher Vaughn as manager at
Breakwater Security and Associates in Washington State
-------- From anonymous:
"As our manager he was hording work and going the extra mile to do it all himself in order to focus attentions on his own accomplishments (and his own bonus) rather than ensure that workloads were evenly and fairly distributed amongst people working for him. And lets not forget that he always presented himself as a model of organization and neatness.

Always with a clean pressed white shirt and slacks (and cowboy boots that were always shiny). Always without a single hair out of place (that picture in the Seattle Times looked nothing like the CD that showed up for work every morning at Breakwater, some people didn’t even recognize him off the photo). So on the surface, from his appearance, I’m sure he never looked like anything was wrong, never said anything out of place, never did anything that would’ve raised any suspicion. But there was just something about the guy that was wrong. I mean, besides the whole quoting of benjamin franklin in an email to introduce himself and why he took the job to the rest of the company. In the end, I’d never trust anyone that polished, neat, and seemingly organized who’s working in any kind of security field."

Blogger writes that Christpher Vaughn worked for Break Water Security and Associates in Washington State
-------- "About 5 years ago [est 2002], Christopher Vaughn worked for Break Water Security and Associates a now dead company, and in the interests of full disclosure, he was my boss at the time and additionally I have only talked to him once in the last 5 years and that was at a meeting before he moved to Chicago. The case though highlights the problems that management might have in seeing or knowing if an employee is under an undue amount of stress that may lead to a bigger problem.

CD Vaughn made for an interesting manager, in that he would not often disclose any real feelings to any employee at the time I worked with him. I am not a psychologist, and after the charges filed on him this weekend for killing his family in Chicago, it brings home the idea that managers, all managers, have to pay attention to what their employee's behavior is normally and under stress.”

"Information security is mostly influenced by the ethics that we have, realistically based on that, Navigant should be going through at least the last 12 months worth of cases that he worked on to ensure that there is no way that the data can be brought back to haunt them. A forensics company that has one of their employees go "bad" needs to do due diligence and due care to ensure that the work he did was above reproach. In addition, if not, they need to go back to the clients and try to fix the problems if there are any.

If he ever testified in state or federal court, the same should be done; the inmates may have the ability to get the information thrown out if there is any chance that the data is tainted. By going off, Vaughn's actions will have ramifications back through the entire system because of what he did. It means that there is now an action that can be taken because he might not be as credible as he might have seemed in the past."

The BluWater Consulting page about Digital Forensic analysis in particular had the exact same text as page 4 of the StoneBridge .pdf."

"Then I noted that BluWater was based in Washington State, just as Christopher Vaughn had been for a time. I also recalled that Chris Vaughn had done work in computer security for financial institutions. So the Advisory Team page for BluWater having — until early 2005 — a listing for someone who worked for a StoneBridge Securities LLC somehow made some sense.

It made more sense upon seeing the old board members page for BluWater — on that page was a Jeffrey Huey — the same name as the man who incorporated StoneBridge Securities LLC in Washington in March, 1999. Christopher Vaughn registered StoneBridge Security with the State 4 years later."

"I remembered something I saw linked from an archived version of StoneBridgeSecurity.com. What I’d recalled was this .pdf, titled
“StoneBridge Consulting Services (.pdf)” Vaughn had uploaded two different versions of the document over the years — the first in 2003, then an updated doc in 2005 (.pdf) (links go to documents I’ve downloaded from the archived versions of the site and then uploaded to my own servers). Metadata attached to each .pdf indicated they were originally authored by Vaughn as Word documents then converted to .pdfs. Vaughn created the brochures as “C.D. Vaughn” in 2003, then “zdvaughn” — yes, a “z,” that’s not a misprint — in 2005."

Washington State
Neighbors remember the Vaughns
-------- "They were next-door neighbors in a Washington state cul-de-sac for four years and never exchanged a word. Christopher Vaughn's neighbor said Vaughn's gregarious, chatty wife was a frequent visitor to their porch, but never her husband. I never saw him walking in the neighborhood, and I never saw him walking to the mailbox," said the neighbor, who did not want his name used."

Washington State
Neighbors remember the Vaughns
-------- "Vaughn -- who lived with his family in the Pacific Northwest from 2001 to 2005 -- appeared to be a devoted family man. Married since 1994, Vaughn always wanted to be near his wife. He'd put his youngest child, Blake, between his legs and they drive around the neighborhood in the family Jeep, neighbors said. If Vaughn seemed to spend untold hours inside the family home, some figured it was because it was part of his work as a computer systems expert and licensed private investigator.

"Almost every P.I. you meet is aloof -- for obvious reasons," said Alexis Montgomery, a Washington P.I. who once hired Vaughn to help her company with a computer-related case. Montgomery described Vaughn as "a wonderful investigator" and "very smart and very nice."

Washington Neighbor said Vaughn asked about guns and target practice



Another neighbor said Kimberly hated guns
-------- "Another Washington neighbor said he chatted with Vaughn when the two fathers waited with their kids for the school bus. The neighbor, Kelly Taylor, said Vaughn would sometimes get cell phone calls from companies trying to recruit him. Vaughn was clearly in demand but never bragged, Taylor said. "It was the opposite," Taylor said. "If you would bring it up, he would talk about it.

During one conversation, Vaughn asked Taylor -- a longtime gun owner -- what kind of gun Taylor owned and where he took target practice. At the time, Vaughn was working on getting his private investigator license. Another Washington neighbor told the Sun-Times last week that Vaughn's wife hated guns and made Vaughn keep his in his Jeep."

Vaughn got job with
Navigant Consulting
in Chicago, Illinois
-------- "The family's time in Washington ended in 2005. Taylor [Neighbor Kelly Taylor] said they moved to the Chicago area after Christopher Vaughn was recruited to work with Navigant Consulting's computer forensics group. But Moynihan [neighbor, Kim Moynihan] said he had complained about failing to land a big contract.

Robert Nelson, a spokesman for the Washington Department of Labor and Industries, said StoneBridge Security still appears to owe state workers' compensation taxes. He said the department has ordered an audit to determine an exact figure."

Vaughn's rented apartment in Aurora, Illinois (Kane County)
1800 block of Westfield Drive and 2100 block of West Galena Boulevard
-------- "Kimberly and Christopher Vaughn made an odd couple. She was an ebullient social butterfly with a million-dollar smile. He was taciturn, withdrawn and occasionally given to angry confrontations."

"The Vaughns sold their house for $446,000—almost $120,000 more than what they had paid for it—and moved to a two-story apartment in Aurora. There, they made a familiar impression: She was outgoing while he came across as reserved, even arrogant. "He walked with a frickin' swagger," said Martina Torres, whose children often played with the Vaughns' kids."

Aurora Illinois Neighbors remember the Vaughns
-------- "In summer 2005, the Vaughns moved to an Aurora apartment, where one female neighbor -- who didn't want her name used -- said she saw an unsettling side of Vaughn. The neighbor said she was frequently disturbed by what sounded like doors slamming, and she let them know about it.

At one point, Christopher Vaughn knocked on the woman's door and screamed at her, telling her to quit harassing his family, she said. She replied: "I never want to talk to you or your wife again." And she didn't, the woman said. Six months later, the family moved to west suburban Oswego, where neighbors said they appeared to be living the quiet, small-town American life in a dream home."

Vaughn's Private Investigation license renewal for 2005 listed new address as 2440 U.S. Highway 30, No. 172, Oswego, Illinois
(PO Box Rental)
UPS Store
-------- "Vaughn's company, Stonebridge Investigations, specializes in corporate counter espionage, risk assessments, missing persons investigations, employee background checks, employee surveillance, computer forensics and cybercrime prevention, according to its Web site. "Some of that would require a license," Hofer said. But, "we don't know if he was doing all of that."

Vaughn transferred his private investigator license from Washington state to Illinois in 2005, listing the
new address as 2440 U.S. Highway 30, No. 172, Oswego, according to his master license renewal application filed in December 2005. Inland Real Estate Group is the owner of that site, and Darryl Cater, spokesman for Inland, said that location is a UPS Store, which has operated in the shopping center since 2002. "172 is almost certainly a PO Box address," Cater said."
