Update Joshua Bingham of Sarasota Florida
The Joshua Bingham residence in Sarasota Florida is now going through the process of foreclosure.
Joshua was able to dodge earlier mortgage proceedings by putting his home in Forbearance.
Forbearance allows homeowners like Joshua Bingham, facing financial hardship, to temporarily pause mortgage payments, preventing foreclosure while seeking stability.
But he never stabilized because he could not obtain gainful employment.
His home deemed by Florida’s DCF services as “a mentally ill person living in squalor”
Past severe mental health diagnosis part of the official record
Florida's Department of Children and Families (DCF) operates the Adult Protective Services where Joshua has been referred for emergency psychiatric intervention
Joshua Bingham of Sarasota Florida presents with a complex history of severe trauma and subsequent maladaptive behaviors. He has been diagnosed as having a severe Anti Social Personality Disorder.
His escalating aggressive anger, aggressive attacks on innocent peer relationships, home invasions, sexual abuse of underage victims, aggravated physical assault and engagement in cyber crimes fits this ASPD criteria, which include disregard for and violation of others' rights.
Intensifying and compounding Joshua Bingham’s diagnosis are two other mental illnesses that make Joshua Bingham very dangerous to himself and others.
Joshua suffers from these mental illnesses.
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD): Joshua has profound poor peer relationships, low self image, aggressive outbursts, feelings he never gets his fair share of things, blaming others for his own deficits and difficulties in social communication; all are core features of his ASD
However, his Autism alone does not account for the aggressive behavior or delusions described.
He has also a past diagnosis of Schizophrenia.
He has told his closest friends of his frequent delusions, hallucinations, and grossly disorganized behavior.
He is described as not being able to obtain nutrition, dental care, house cleaning, inability to drive or do routine life skills like laundry or maintain any degree of personal hygiene.
His home is in the process of being foreclosed and he can not pay his legal bills.
We have record of the mortgage company reaching out to Florida contractors for what they believe will be a complete “gut and restoration” of this home in decay and neglect.
Moreover, Joshua Bingham is being sued for not delivering an $18,000 dollar website he was paid for
Once his attorney learns that he can’t pay the legal defense his attorney will most likely withdraw his services.
What happened to Joshua is typical of severe cases of this rare kind
Joshua Bingham's self-reported experience of being kidnapped as a pre-teen and abandoned in the Carolina mountains by individuals paid for by his mother is a shocking example of severe child abuse.
This incident, which nearly resulted in his death, was reportedly considered one of the most extreme cases of child endangerment at the time it was disclosed.f
Such traumatic experiences can have profound and lasting impacts on a person's psychological development and well-being. Joshua Bingham's mother's actions severely damaged his ability to trust others, and this is why he goes on the offense and tries to strike out at anyone he considers “a threat.”
The incident of his mother paying kidnappers to abandon him in the Carolina mountains as a pre-teen is just one of many examples of his rocky years as a troubled youth.
This act of intentional endangerment by a primary caregiver would likely shatter any sense of essential trust and security. Being abandoned in a life-threatening situation by one's mother would create deep-seated issues with attachment and trusting others.
Such severe trauma during formative years often leads to difficulty forming healthy relationships later in life.
As a result, Joshua Bingham now exhibits predatory and sociopathic behaviors, which stem from his inability to form regular attachments or trust others due to his childhood experiences.
The extreme nature of Joshua Bingham’s abuse, especially coming from a mother figure, would likely result in a pervasive distrust of others, difficulty with emotional intimacy, and challenges in all types of relationships throughout Joshua's life.
The betrayal of maternal care at such a fundamental level, on top of his profound mental illnesses, has set up a situation where Joshua feels like he “must get revenge” on anyone who threatens his “sense of self.”
His background includes being a victim of sexual abuse, which has significantly impacted his psychological development and current functioning.
Joshua Bingham’s early trauma has likely contributed to the development of psychopathic tendencies and criminal behavior in adulthood.
Joshua Bingham now exhibits behaviors consistent with being a sexual predator, demonstrating severe sociopathic traits. His actions include:
Grooming young men, particularly those with androgynous features
Struggling with unresolved homosexual tendencies
Engaging in criminal activities related to sexual offenses
Who is Joshua Bingham ?
He goes by names like “Klock” and “illuminated ape”
His name is Joshua Bingham
of Sarasota, FL
Joshua Bingham’s gay lover took this photo and then photo-shopped it to Joshua Bingham’s liking. Joshua Bingham prefers that the “objects of his affection” remain on their knees while they are forced to do artistic renderings of him.
The Joshua Bingham yearbook photo with his telling quote “control the future.” This is quite ironic given his fate where Joshua Bingham is facing between 30 years to life in jail time based on table and citations below.
Legal authorities investigating this case state he is looking at north of 15 years in prison minimum, but given that Joshua Bingham has no health insurance and is indigent, jobless, and off his medication, he may be placed indefinitely in psychiatric care instead of a correctional setting. Some “soft-hearted” believe that he may be better served in psychiatric care indefinitely rather than in a prison setting. This approach could provide him with the necessary support and treatment he needs.

Joshua Bingham has a high degree of computer and technology skills. He is very savvy in the dark web and cybercrime, as well as stalking underage children.
The objects of his affection are members of the trans community or men that look androgynous; he is also involved in past acts of perversion with animals and on edge dating sites like Grinder and takes to underground chat rooms like Discord to discuss his rape fantasies.
He severely beat a web developer (a man he was stalking also of Sarasota) recently, causing the innocent victim's hospitalization.
Web developer in Sarasota, Florida, Joshua Bingham, stalked and beat with a large stick to one inch of his life because the man wouldn’t consent to Joshua Bingham’s sexual advances. Sarasota police dismissed the aggravated assault as “homosexuals being drama queens,” so Joshua Bingham escaped a jail sentence.
Joshua Bingham targets men who have “an androgynous look.”
Sarasota police have been contacted previously about Joshua Bingham escalating in physical assaults and cyber crimes of various nature.
His MO is to go on the offense and call the Police as a pre-emptive strike where he files a variety of fake police reports.
He will make up that others are involved in crime when he is the perpetrator in all of these cases.
He will make up falsehoods and state that others are extorting him or "he is only defending himself." Still, we also have surveillance audio and video footage clearly showing that he is doing these acts of violence in various places in and surrounding Sarasota, Florida.
Investigative news reporters now working in both Florida and Arizona are piecing these serious crimes, including:home invasions
felony aggravated assault
extortion
blackmail
bank account hacking.
Joshua brags about his extensive network of cyber criminals that he knows from the "black hat world" and other "video gaming" online communities where he enlists help from other cyber experts to terrorize his victims.
Jim Forsythe (now deceased) reported to Jon Little and others that Joshua Bingham was stalking him online and Joshua Bingham said to Jim Forsythe “I am going to Skull F*ck your good looking Mother” Joshua knew that Forsythe’s mother at the time was suffering from terminal cancer.
Recently a woman in Florida stated that Joshua orchestrated a campaign of terror targeting her 15-year-old son, sending the boy messages like "We are going to tie up your mother and rape her and force you to watch" This poor woman also had cancer twice and three heart attacks. Moreover, Joshua told the 15-year-old, "We are going to slit your mom's throat and cut cancer out and force you to watch."
We are early in this investigation; the story just broke open last Friday, but we have already compiled over 35 crimes, of which we can substantiate about half.
Just yesterday Joshua Bingham messaged Jon Little through a platform called WhatsApp the following threat ( We’ve uncovered the audio indicated below his chilling threat)
Bingham (aka Klock and illuminated Ape) threatens Jon Little
”You see how I work . You fail to understand, Jon, I won't stop what others call stalking or blackmail. You left the Reddit community, and You stopped paying Conrad and me, … now, every day file police reports in your hometown & spread rumors to clients until you are homeless and so depressed you kill yourself. Your little boy also looks delicious. Keep that in mind.”
