Source-linked public-record research into lawsuits, outcomes, related proceedings, court rulings, public statements and litigation chronology.
All 1722 timestamped statements, grouped under the 629 videos they came from and ordered by the strongest pattern-relevance tier that video carries. Expand a video to read its quotes in playback order.
What these tiers are: “Strong”, “Moderate” and “Context” are this project’s research classification of how closely a public statement bears on the documented filing-restriction indicators. They are not judicial findings, not an adjudication of anything said in a video, and not a determination that Frank Tufano is a vexatious litigant — no court in this dataset has made that determination. Court findings, party statements and research classifications are kept in separate evidence layers throughout this site; see Methodology.
How a tier is assigned. Strong — the statement names a tracked case or dispute and describes filing conduct of the kind the indicators document: repeat filing on the same dispute, filing after an adverse decision, or filing framed as imposing cost on the opponent. Moderate — it bears on litigation conduct or chronology in a tracked dispute, but the case link is tentative or the statement describes something other than the speaker’s own filing behaviour. Context — general commentary with no specific tracked case identified.
What the factor labels are. Each statement is also labelled with the filing-restriction factor its own words describe, so the reason for a classification is visible rather than implied. Most factors correspond to a criterion recorded in the indicator data, and the three that do not are marked as such there — a filing that has only been threatened has no docket to record, and an allegation about a court is the speaker’s characterisation rather than a recorded criterion. Repeat filing on the same dispute, filing after an adverse decision and cost imposition as stated motive are the three that can qualify a statement as Strong; threatened or prospective filing, self-reported filing volume, filing announced or confirmed, adverse outcome described and judicial or forum bias alleged record related but weaker signals. A statement that describes no filing conduct carries no factor badge. A factor records what the speaker said — not that a court found it, and not that anyone has been determined a vexatious litigant.
How quotations are marked: An ellipsis (…) inside a quotation marks words left out between two passages of the same video, which can sit some minutes apart. The omitted wording is not reproduced here, and a clip on the statement supercut plays the whole span from the quotation’s first word to its last — so it includes the omitted material. Quotations without an ellipsis are continuous speech.
Quotations on this page are excerpts: a quotation ending in an ellipsis is shortened here for length. The full wording, and the reason recorded for its pattern-relevance tier, are on the video’s own research page — follow the ¶ permalink on any card.

Uh you know, I was never having any sort of financial issues until uh last year where we had to get all the the the surgeries and attempt to uh attempt to fix the problems.
A causation statement — he dates the onset of his financial problems to the corrective surgeries, which is the harm underlying the Taban dispute. No court, case or party is named.
Watch at 00:36 — youtube.com ↗Um cuz like everything out here I had to pay for this surgery was like $40,000
C024's claims summary pleads that this orbital reconstruction cost $41,286.36 and that United Healthcare refused to cover it. This is the contemporaneous, first-person statement of the same figure, four days after the operation and 205 days before the case was filed. No insurer, court or filing is mentioned.
Watch at 01:43 — youtube.com ↗right now we're like out here in California. It's been like 3 days since the surgery and I'm just like really really dizzy and nauseous when I stand up or try to do anything.
Fixes the recording to three days post-operation and the venue to California. C024 pleads the surgery date as 2025-05-08 and describes the treatment as an "out-of-state service"; both are corroborated here from the speaker's own account.
Watch at 02:03 — youtube.com ↗um that it's the same website that um that Amos Miller fraudulently got $300,000 in donations when he faked he faked his farm getting raided by the USDA and then he got $300,000 in donations. Basically stole people's money. Yeah. Here I am…
This restates, on camera, the substance of what C001/C041 plead — that Miller solicited donations through GiveSendGo on an exaggerated account of a raid on his farm, with C001 seeking "no less than $300,000". It is delivered as an aside about his own fundraiser, not as commentary on a case: no court, docket or filing is mentioned, and the federal version (C041) had already been dismissed with prejudice five months earlier.
Watch at 11:33 — youtube.com ↗Uh some of you guys might be saying that like my right eye looks a lot different, but that's because the the upper eyelid ptosis was done incorrectly the first time.
A dated, first-person allegation that the earlier eyelid procedure — "the first time" — was performed incorrectly, offered while he is two days out from the corrective surgery. That defective-first-procedure allegation is the injury the Taban eye-surgery malpractice litigation is built on, but the practitioner is not named here, so the link is carried entirely by subject matter. Recorded as what the speaker said, not as a finding. Tier: Moderate (No filing-conduct factor)
Watch at 00:30 — youtube.com ↗It is Friday, May 9th, 2025, and I am posting this video as proof that I'm physically incapacitated and unable to participate in any legal or court proceedings because these evil degenerates who made the statute on medical limitations one…
Two things at once. First, he states the purpose of the upload itself is evidentiary — the video is being made "as proof" of medical incapacity for pending proceedings, which is an unusually explicit statement of a litigation use for channel content. Second, the opening clause is a hard internal date marker: "It is Friday, May 9th, 2025." May 9, 2025 was a Friday, and the video's publish instant is 2025-05-09T08:23:38-07:00 — so recording and upload fall on the same day and the observed lag on this video is zero. That is what licenses the adjacency reasoning in ## Research Notes. The complaint about a "one year" medical statute of limitations reads as California's one-year MICRA limitations period, which is the limitations regime governing the C101/C046 medical claims. Party statement, no source offered.
Watch / source — youtube.com ↗despite still having to get medical care and undergo many surgeries, I have been forced to still have to um to still have to participate in the court proceedings. So hopefully the judges in the federal and superior California court uh did…
The strongest quote researched from this video. He identifies two concurrent forums by description — "the federal and superior California court" — and as of 2025-05-09 the dataset holds exactly two live actions in the eye-surgery dispute matching that description: C046 (filed M.D. Pa. 3:25-cv-00011 on 2025-01-02 and, per the recorded litigation timeline, transferred and opened in the Central District of California as 2:25-cv-00147 on 2025-01-03), and C101 (Superior Court of California, Los Angeles County, 25SMCV00041, filed 2025-01-06). "Federal … California" and "superior California court" map onto those two and onto nothing else in the dataset on that date. He also confirms a filing he has made — a "notice to delay the case," i.e. a continuance request grounded in medical incapacity — filed in one or both. This is the earliest continuance-on-health-grounds statement located in the archive; the dataset's other health-and-trial-fitness material in this action is from 2026-07-10 / 2026-07-15, fourteen months later. Party statement, no source offered; the filing is asserted, not evidenced.
Watch at 00:25 — youtube.com ↗I really should have just camp myself in front of this guy's office and made him write me a check and and not put myself through any more of these surgeries.
The archive's leafleting/picketing chronology currently starts 2025-05-26 (New York, viewer recruitment). This statement is 17 days earlier and describes the same physical mechanism — stationing himself outside the surgeon's office to extract payment. It is not an announcement, a plan or a recruitment: it is a counterfactual regret about what he should have done instead of undergoing further surgery, in the past-perfect. It should not be used to move the 2025-05-26 start date, and this file does not do so. What it does establish is that the "outside his office" idea was already in his vocabulary before the recruitment videos begin. On the factor: Cost imposition as stated motive was considered and rejected — that factor is defined as framing the opponent's legal spend as the point, and nothing here refers to the opponent's legal costs; the mechanism described is a direct payment demand, not cost imposition in the defined sense. Party statement, no source offered.
Watch at 01:08 — youtube.com ↗Uh-oh. Looks like Dr. Taban has his full Illuminati goon squad on payroll because after posting that orbital reconstruction video last night, I woke up to like a hundred comments.
One of the few statements researched from this period where the surgeon is named in the transcript itself rather than only in the title — the captions render it correctly as "Dr. Taban" here, before degrading into three wrong spellings in the passage he reads aloud. It also carries a rare internal lag marker: "that orbital reconstruction video last night" fixes the preceding upload to about 2025-05-08 and puts this recording within a day of publication. "Illuminati" recurs across the researched videos as his framing for opposing parties — the statement record shows the same label applied elsewhere to Paul Saladino. Tier: Moderate (No filing-conduct factor)
Watch / source — youtube.com ↗But are these people that delusional thinking they can warp reality by hiring people to post comments to try to sway the conversation? This is completely This is complete insanity. Complete insanity.
His own restatement of the brigading theory, outside the read-aloud block, and the clearest formulation of it: the alleged mechanism is paid comment placement to shift public opinion. It is the third statement of this theory in four days (a 2025-05-06 video states it, and a 2025-05-25 video states the chargeback side). Tier: Moderate (No filing-conduct factor)
Watch at 00:40 — youtube.com ↗Unfortunately, we had orbital reconstruction yesterday. However, it did go incredibly well. The doctor said that everything looked really good before the swelling set in.
“Yesterday”, repeated again at [0:44] (“We just had the surgery yesterday”), is exactly the kind of internal date marker this research looks for. It places an orbital reconstruction on or about 2025-05-08 and establishes an upload lag here of about one day. That in turn brackets the corrective-procedure count in a video published 2025-04-29, which states “I've already had 10 corrective procedures” — so this is approximately the eleventh. The “doctor” praised here is the reconstructing surgeon, not the defendant surgeon in the eye-surgery dispute.
Watch at 00:05 — youtube.com ↗depending on how well this one went will, you know, ultimately dictate how much of the orbital decompression uh is able to be undone.
The orbital decompression is not incidental vocabulary — it is the specific procedure at the centre of the eye-surgery pleadings. The recorded claims summaries state that C101's complaint alleges Taban performed "a combination of four cosmetic procedures (orbital decompression, upper eyelid ptosis repair, lower eyelid retraction, and an infraorbital rim implant)" on 2023-11-29, and that C063's First Claim for Relief alleges he "performed an unnecessary orbital-decompression procedure without the required clinical indication, causing partial blindness, physical disability, and disfigurement." This video reports, on a dated basis, an attempt to reverse it and states the reversal is partial and uncertain ("how much … is able to be undone"). That bears directly on the continuing-injury and mitigation aspects of the dispute.
Watch at 00:31 — youtube.com ↗my vision is good. It looks like um he was able to bring my eyes out a pretty substantial amount and uh and move them further apart. So, we'll see if we need straismus or some other corrective procedures soon, but the hard part's over
A more positive account of his condition than the pleadings in the eye-surgery dispute give — “my vision is good” on 2025-05-09, against complaints pleading “near-blind” (C101) and “partial blindness” (C063, filed 2026-02-23). These are not necessarily inconsistent — this statement is made one day post-operatively about immediate post-surgical vision, the complaints plead a continuing condition, and a video ten days earlier says “I'm still half blind.” It is recorded because a later reader comparing video statements against pleaded injury will encounter the apparent tension and should have the context that resolves it. “Straismus” is a caption garble for strabismus (ocular misalignment); “he” is the reconstructing surgeon.
Watch at 00:46 — youtube.com ↗So, I just got back from my orbital reconstruction surgery, which is the fifth procedure I've had in attempts to correct my eyes and vision.
Published the same day as the surgery date pleaded in C024's verified complaint (2025-05-08), and it supplies a procedure count — the fifth — for the corrective sequence that is the damages spine of the eye-surgery malpractice thread and the subject of the United Healthcare coverage denial.
Watch / source — youtube.com ↗uh because we were supposed to only do one eye at a time, but he did end up doing both eyes at the same time.
Establishes that the May 2025 procedure was bilateral. This matters far beyond the clinical detail: two already-archived files describe a "double orbital reconstruction" dated to roughly mid-November 2025, and bilaterality was the shared feature most likely to cause the two events to be collapsed into one. Tier: Moderate (No filing-conduct factor)
Watch at 00:29 — youtube.com ↗but it's completely disgusting what these people have put me through and they're still harassing me in the comments and gangstalking me and saying that whether my eyes look fine or um or I did this to myself or whatever, uh, if you guys…
A dated allegation of continuing harassment by the opposing side, coupled with a request that viewers share his videos. The ask is generic — no target is identified and no action against anyone is proposed — which is what keeps it below the harassment-signal threshold; it is recorded here so the distinction is auditable rather than assumed. The tier is Moderate, with no filing-conduct factor.
Watch at 00:44 — youtube.com ↗One of you guys suggested I start a give send go. But you don't understand that the elite control all these platforms and this doctor is so connected that there is no way they are going to allow me to collect any money for what this guy…
"Give send go" resolves to GiveSendGo LLC, a tracked defendant named in C001 (Lackawanna 2024-06106, filed 2024-09-03, pending) and C041 (M.D. Pa. 3:24-cv-01117, filed 2024-07-08, closed) — both in the Miller-related litigation group, the Amos Miller fundraising and media grouping. The notable thing is the cross-dispute posture: on 2025-05-06 he is publicly contemplating raising money on a platform he was concurrently suing in a pending action over that platform allegedly removing his campaigns, and he predicts in advance that it will not let him collect. Google is likewise a tracked defendant, though only later (C084, filed 2026-08-05), so on this date the Google reference is not yet a party reference. Party statement, no source offered.
Watch / source — youtube.com ↗So, I mean, I I'll make the campaign, but you guys will see. We We made a website last night, and I didn't even get one donation.
A dateable act — a website built on the night of 2025-05-05, on the reading that the publish date equals the recording date — plus a stated fundraising intent ("I'll make the campaign") that is prospective and not litigation. Do not read this as dating botchedbytaban.com. That site was already being promoted on camera seven days earlier, in bjpl2L5nm7c (2025-04-29: "my videos on botchedbyt.com"). So "the website" here is either a different property, a donation page, or a rebuild. See ## Research Notes. Party statement, no source offered.
Watch at 01:10 — youtube.com ↗The lawyers will not help you. And even if you're smart enough to file your own lawsuit, the judges will rule in favor of the doctor and your life will be completely ruined.
General commentary on how courts treat a pro-se medical-malpractice plaintiff, framed as a rule rather than as an account of any particular ruling. "Smart enough to file your own lawsuit" is a self-description at one remove — he is a pro-se filer in every action in the dataset — but no case is identified and no specific decision is described. It is the same forum-corruption theme that recurs across the channel, here applied to medicine rather than to a platform. Party statement, no source offered.
Watch at 01:34 — youtube.com ↗So, Dr. Taban continues to hire these Illuminati gangstalkers to leave comments on my video, saying it was my fault, saying I'm scamming people for donations when I'm a victim of medical malpractice.
Names a tracked defendant correctly spelled in the captions — a rarity on this channel, where twelve wrong caption renderings of this surname are on record — and alleges he is paying people to post comments. It also gives his own characterisation of the underlying claim: "I'm a victim of medical malpractice." That is the theory of the Taban eye-surgery dispute. No source is offered for the hiring allegation, and this research takes no position on it. Note also that this is a statement about ongoing conduct ("continues to") made while C046 and C101 were both live against Taban.
Watch / source — youtube.com ↗what this guy did to my face was completely disgusting and horrific. He should be in jail, let alone have his medical license taken away. But the reality is that he's still mutilating people's faces from his $10 million Beverly Hills…
The most severe statement in the video about a tracked party — a call for criminal consequences and licence revocation, plus an assertion that he continues to injure other patients. Records the register and severity of his public commentary about a defendant during live litigation, which is what makes it research-relevant; it establishes no fact about Taban. The "$10 million Beverly Hills mansion" line names a city only, no address, and concerns a public-facing medical practice, so §5 does not reach it. Not a redaction case: the subject is a party to tracked proceedings, which §5 expressly excludes.
Watch at 00:13 — youtube.com ↗These people are so evil and they censor and shadowban my videos so the truth doesn't get exposed.
Platform-suppression allegations are a recurring pleaded theory in this dataset, and this one is published in the run-up to two of them. "they" is grammatically ambiguous (the commenters, or the platforms) and no platform is named on camera, so the link is thematic only. It is recorded because of what follows it on the docket, not because of what it says.
Watch at 00:37 — youtube.com ↗So, this evil doctor mutilates my face and then hires people to gangstalk me. And when I called them out for it, they got their buddies at Tik Tok to remove the video. [reading] Removed for integrity and authenticity.
A dated pre-filing statement of the exact grievance that later becomes a case. The allegation — that the surgeon caused TikTok to remove his video — is made on 2025-05-06; the case tracker records C014, Tufano v. TikTok, Lackawanna County 2025-04277, filed 2025-06-06, i.e. 31 days later. C014's defendant list is TikTok; TikTok Inc; and a firm listed under the “Lively” spelling — the tracked party-name record resolves both the “Lively” and “Lavely” spellings to Lavely & Singer PC, an entity the dataset records as a law firm. So the case that follows names the platform and a law firm, which is structurally the same pairing this video alleges (platform acting at a doctor-side actor's behest). The final clause is read-aloud platform boilerplate and is marked as such. The tier is Moderate, with no filing-conduct factor.
Watch / source — youtube.com ↗What they do is they censor and they shadowban me. They make sure people don't watch my videos. And then they get their cronies, these gangstalkers, these agents to leave negative comments to make me look like I'm a scammer or I'm lying or…
The canonical statement of the "paid shills / gangstalkers" theory among the statements researched from this period, three days before he restates it with screenshots in another researched video (2025-05-09). It combines two distinct claims — platform suppression and paid adverse commenting — which later filings in the Reddit and TikTok disputes keep separate.
Watch at 00:20 — youtube.com ↗These people ruin my face. I spent all my money trying to get it fixed. And now that I ask for help, they're continuing to censor and shadowban me and hide the truth of what they did to me.
Links the eye-surgery injury claim to the platform-suppression claim in a single sentence — the two dispute groups are tracked separately in this research and he treats them as one grievance here. "Now that I ask for help" is contemporaneous with the donation appeal published the previous day (2025-05-05).
Watch at 00:40 — youtube.com ↗But what am I supposed to do? like sue the United States government and sue the president.
Announces a filing not yet made, in the form of a rhetorical question. It never happened — no action against the President or on tariffs or supply-chain interference exists anywhere in the case tracker. Recorded as a finding in its own right, not as a gap. The tier is Moderate (Threatened or prospective filing).
Watch at 00:28 — youtube.com ↗and I've filed lawsuits in court before. They just get dismissed. If you're prosay [pro se] or you're a small business owner, the federal judge will not allow your lawsuit to do anything. It's absolutely pathetic.
Reports a pattern of rulings against him and attributes the pattern to the forum's treatment of pro-se and small-business litigants rather than to the merits. Both halves are what the speaker said, not findings. Tier: Moderate (Adverse outcome described; Judicial or forum bias alleged)
Watch at 00:48 — youtube.com ↗I I've I've filed over two or three dozen lawsuits myself. So, that's definitely not the solution.
A self-reported filing count given three weeks before the six-case Lackawanna filing day, and offered as an argument against filing rather than for it. Tier: Moderate (Self-reported filing volume)
Watch at 01:03 — youtube.com ↗So, it's been about a year and a half since Dr. Tobond botched my eyes. Basically ended my YouTube career, which my business was dependent on. And I never thought I'd be in a situation where I'd have to ask for money because I was pretty…
A self-reported causation-and-damages statement, and a datable one: “about a year and a half” before 2025-05-05 puts the index surgery around late 2023, which later research can test against the pleadings in C046 / C101. The recorded litigation timeline's entries for the eye-surgery dispute begin only at 2025-01-03 and 2025-01-06, and the dispute-group record carries no underlying-event date for it — so the dataset currently has no date for the underlying event. The tier is Moderate, with no filing-conduct factor.
Watch / source — youtube.com ↗you know, 10 surgeries later and my insurance isn't covering this stuff and I still have to go see more plastic surgeons to attempt to fix this. I basically ready to give up. And I don't know how much longer it's going to take, but…
States a self-reported surgery count (10) and describes the outcome he expects from the pending litigation, expressly as the source of repayment for donors. That is an unusual and research-relevant framing: donations are solicited against an anticipated litigation recovery.
Watch at 00:17 — youtube.com ↗So, we made a private website on botbytabbond.com. You guys can donate. Uh some of you suggested GoFundMe, but GoFundMe is owned by these people. They would just shut it down. Uh that happened when I I tried to start my business years ago.…
GoFundMe Inc and GiveSendGo LLC are both named defendants in C001, C041 and C081 — the Miller-related litigation, Tufano v. Miller et al. This is a first-person, dated narration of the conduct underlying that defendant pairing: a fundraising page taken down "years ago" when he "tried to start my business." C041 was filed 2024-07-08 and C001 on 2024-09-03, so both were already on file when this was published — post-filing narration of the grievance, not a pre-filing announcement. It also records his stated reason for not using a fundraising platform this time, which is directly responsive to the same grievance.
Watch at 00:46 — youtube.com ↗hopefully my insurance covers most of the stuff and then uh we can start a separate website to help help other people that don't have uh don't have as much of a reach as me just for general victims of botch plastic surgery.
An announced plan to aggregate other claimants — the non-litigation cousin of the class action soliciting other patients that batch-30 wave 2 recorded as never having materialised. This is a donation site, not a legal vehicle, and he does not solicit co-plaintiffs, name a firm, or mention a claim; the distinction matters and is preserved here rather than merged. No such site is recorded anywhere in the dataset or archive. Tier: Context (No filing-conduct factor)
Watch at 01:18 — youtube.com ↗this guy in LA does the most orbital decompressions. This guy in Indiana does the most upper eyelid ptosis repairs.
The two procedures named here — orbital decompression and upper eyelid ptosis repair — are two of the four that C101's recorded claims summary describes the complaint alleging Taban performed in a single operation on 2023-11-29 (the others being lower eyelid retraction and an infraorbital rim implant). The video is describing corrective specialists for those same procedures. Note that "this guy in LA" is a plausible but unconfirmed match for the unnamed reconstructing surgeon in another researched video from 2025-05-09 ("orbital reconstruction yesterday") — not resolved here and not asserted; neither video names anyone.
Watch at 00:25 — youtube.com ↗if I had come across him immediately after Dr. Tobond, we might not even be in this scenario anymore.
The only place the tracked defendant is named in this video, and it is a causal counterfactual: earlier corrective referral might have avoided "this scenario." "this scenario" is unspecified and the file does not decide what it covers — the medical outcome, the litigation, or both. Recorded because a plaintiff's own statement that earlier intervention might have changed the outcome is the kind of thing that bears on causation and mitigation in the underlying malpractice theory, and it is his own characterisation, not a finding.
Watch at 00:40 — youtube.com ↗It's just really unfortunate that a lot of doctors really try to protect themselves and they're really close-minded and narrow-minded. Uh when it comes to to their understanding of everything,
A general-commentary framing of the profession as self-protecting. It is the milder, three-days-later restatement of Gwe9wWs2UfM (published 2025-04-28, same slice), which puts the same idea far more strongly: "all of these plastic surgeons are specifically taught lying, manipulative, gaslighting tactics to preserve their reputation and income." Recorded as a pair so the register range across three days is visible. No case, no court, no filing conduct.
Watch at 00:47 — youtube.com ↗My eyes are still really messed up and I have bad vision, but not nearly as horrific as it was about a year ago.
A dated point on the injury-progression curve that the eye-surgery damages case rests on, with an internal backward marker ("about a year ago", i.e. roughly May 2024) placing the worst period between the November 2023 index surgery and this video. Tier: Moderate (No filing-conduct factor).
Watch / source — youtube.com ↗Like when I went to doctor to bond [caption garble — "Dr. Taban"] for filler, he took a needle and jammed it in random parts of my eye. The whole appointment took maybe three minutes flat.
A first-person account of the conduct of Taban, a tracked defendant in the eye-surgery dispute group, during treatment — the shape of allegation the malpractice pleadings in that dispute turn on. Recorded as what the speaker said; this research takes no position on whether it is true.
Watch at 00:19 — youtube.com ↗With Dr. Yang. It was an hour and a half of surgical precision, which makes Dr. Tobon's [caption garble — "Dr. Taban's"] practice look like preschool.
The comparative allegation against a tracked defendant that a later video reworked into its own title — "Dr. Taban does Filler LIKE A PRE-SCHOOLER", published 2025-10-12. This telling predates that one by 164 days. Tier: Moderate (No filing-conduct factor)
Watch at 00:30 — youtube.com ↗This is what happened when I went to the number one celebrity eye surgeon, Dr. Tabon, and allowed him to do the procedures he recommended to improve my appearance. I trusted his years and years of expertise, his reputation as the number…
This is the informed-consent / reliance theory stated in plain speech. The claims-summary record for C101 lists the pleaded causes of action as “lack of informed consent, breach of the standard of care/surgical error, injury, and damages,” with Taban allegedly “misrepresenting the risks beforehand and the results afterward.” The video's emphasis — that the procedures were his recommendation, and that Tufano relied on his reputation — tracks that pleading closely. “Tabon” is a caption garble for Taban.
Watch / source — youtube.com ↗you guys can understand why I say this guy should be in prison, let alone practicing medicine because it is completely disgusting and despicable how he could do this to my face and not care or not try to help me
Records the severity and register of his public commentary about a defendant while two suits against that defendant were pending. It establishes nothing about Dr. Taban; it is evidence of what was said and when. Note that the same call — "He should be in jail" — recurs a week later in 1rajgdsbAcA (2025-05-06), so this is a settled formulation rather than a one-off.
Watch at 00:37 — youtube.com ↗And he's still hiring shills in these comments. You can go look on all the recent videos I posted to defend him and try to blame me and say, "I shouldn't have gotten this or I shouldn't have gotten that."
The paid-commenter allegation, seven days earlier than another researched video (2025-05-06) that puts it as "Dr. Taban continues to hire these Illuminati gangstalkers to leave comments on my video." Two independent datings of the same allegation, 2025-04-29 and 2025-05-06. It is also the closest thing located in this research to the "organized gangstalking operation" pleaded in C071 (Tufano v. Eriksson et al, M.D. Pa. 3:26-cv-01016) — though that complaint was not filed until 2026-04-20, nearly a year later, and concerns text messages and social-media videos rather than YouTube comments. No source is offered for the hiring allegation and this research takes no position on it. The passage in quotation marks is his paraphrase of commenters, not a read-aloud of any specific comment.
Watch at 00:59 — youtube.com ↗Yeah, I've already had 10 corrective procedures and I'm still half blind and I still have to get a few more surgeries. So just to address that for you guys that's saying I look a lot different. Yeah. About $100,000 later and uh five times…
Four quantified claims with a date attached to them — as of 2025-04-29: 10 corrective procedures, five general anaesthetics, ~$100,000 spent, and "still half blind." The dataset has the injury language but not the numbers: C101's complaint pleads that he was left "deformed" and "near-blind"; C063's pleads "partial blindness, physical disability, and disfigurement" with total damages of $3,010,000 ($430,000 per defendant). The $100,000 here is a different quantity from the $3,010,000 pled — out-of-pocket corrective spend versus total damages across seven-plus defendants — so the two are not in conflict, but the spread is recorded rather than reconciled, per the addendum's standing instruction. Not
Watch at 01:35 — youtube.com ↗If you guys have not seen my videos on botchedbyt.com, you need to watch them. There's a reason I'm exposing this guy because he botched all four procedures he did on me. Not one of them was done correctly.
The general form of the four-procedure allegation, published 2025-04-29. This research's previous earliest framing of it as a process allegation is a video from 2025-09-07, and the two existing statement-record rows on it come from videos published 2026-08-03 and 2026-08-09 — fifteen months later. So this predates those recorded statements by well over a year and the process-framing video by four months and nine days. It also carries the domain, which the captions render botchedbyt.com; the correct form is botchedbytaban.com. Party statement, no source offered.
Watch at 00:02 — youtube.com ↗And he should have his medical license taken away for performing an orbital decompression on me. That's how horrific this botch was. He put the implants in wrong. He did the lower eyelid retraction wrong, the canthoplasty wrong, and he did…
The load-bearing quote in this slice. It answers the process-vs-outcome question the way neither existing row does — it is both, plus a third thing: - Process: "He put the implants in wrong", "he did the lower eyelid retraction wrong, the canthoplasty wrong" — allegations about how the operating was performed. - Outcome: "he did my upper eyelids uneven", "the right one is much higher than the left" — the observable result. - Indication: "he should have his medical license taken away for performing an orbital decompression on me" — not that it was done badly but that it should not have been done at all. That third category is the one the promoted rows do not carry, and it aligns with the theory he reads from his own complaint in aWuq0jViHQQ (2025-02-08): "no other surgeons in the world are performing this orbital decompression procedure for cosmetic purposes."
Watch at 00:33 — youtube.com ↗Instead, he's still living in his $10 million mansion, rooting people's faces.
A $10 million valuation of the defendant's residence, offered as the contrast to the accountability he says never comes. The archive already carries several unreconciled figure spreads (wagyu/customs $20,000–$30,000; lost-relationship valuations $800,000–$3 million); this adds a defendant-wealth figure to that set, and like the others it is logged, not reconciled — no source is offered for it. "rooting" at 1:24 is a caption garble for what is audibly "ruining". Party statement, no source offered.
Watch at 01:20 — youtube.com ↗I'm pretty convinced all of these plastic surgeons are specifically taught lying, manipulative, gaslighting tactics to preserve their reputation and income whenever a patient has an unsuccessful result.
The strongest register in this slice's three "doctors protect themselves" videos — compare EBhiCdG0aXs three days later (2025-05-01), which softens the same idea to "a lot of doctors really try to protect themselves." No individual is named, so this is general commentary, not an allegation against a party. Note the hedge "I'm pretty convinced": it is framed as belief, not as fact. It also restates the gaslighting allegation that appears in LHhtWOGVSh0 (2025-04-29) as a specific charge against Taban ("even gaslight and lie and manipulate me") — here generalised to the whole profession.
Watch at 00:03 — youtube.com ↗I'm the only person I'm aware of that has been through so many negative things in their life that they were able to recognize and deal with this doctor treating me like this and stand up for myself and and continue to speak out and try to…
“This doctor” is the only reference to an individual and it is unnamed — the context (a botched plastic-surgery result) makes the Taban eye-surgery dispute the obvious subject, but nothing in the transcript names anyone, so no case link is drawn. The “help other people … in the same situation” framing is the recurring predicate for the class action soliciting other patients that this research has recorded — one of four threatened filings that, per earlier research on this channel, never happened and corresponds to no case anywhere in the tracker. This video is an instance of the motivation without the filing.
Watch at 00:23 — youtube.com ↗But something really needs to be done. And I'm thinking of starting an organization uh to raise money to to help support botched patients and to hold these surgeons accountable because lawyers certainly won't and these medical…
Four things, and the classification turns on keeping them apart. (1) It is not a filing. Founding an advocacy organisation is not litigation, so Threatened or prospective filing does not apply and No filing-conduct factor is the correct call — recorded explicitly so a later reader can see the boundary was drawn deliberately. (2) It nonetheless sits directly alongside the threatened class action soliciting other patients that this research has recorded elsewhere, which never materialised; this is the same "organise other botched patients" impulse taking a non-litigation form, on 2025-04-28. There is likewise no organisation of this kind anywhere in the dataset, so as of the research date it appears to have gone the same way — recorded as a finding, not a gap. (3) "Lawyers certainly won't" is a first-person statement of why he proceeds without counsel, which is directly relevant to the pro-se pattern: the case tracker marks C005 and the eye-surgery-dispute filings as pro se. (4) "These medical organizations certainly won't [hold these surgeons accountable]" is the theory he had already pleaded: C046 (filed 2025-01-02, i.e. nearly four months before this video) names, per its recorded claims summary, "the Medical Board of California, the American Academy of Ophthalmology, the American Board of Cosmetic Surgery, and the American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, alleging these credentialing/professional bodies bear responsibility for certifying or failing to oversee Dr. Taban." The video states the grievance in ordinary language without naming any of them.
Watch at 00:42 — youtube.com ↗The doctor that completely ruined my face and left me half blind was known as the number one eye cosmetic celebrity surgeon, Dr. Tobond. and he really only had maybe half a dozen, you know, five or six really good before and after photos…
Two quantities in one sentence, both attributed to the tracked defendant and neither recorded anywhere else in this research: a career volume of "thousands, if not tens of thousands of surgeries", and a published-results count of "maybe half a dozen, five or six" before-and-after galleries. The inference he draws — that the ratio between them is itself evidence of concealment — is the same marketing/holding-out theme that runs through the eye-surgery dispute material, here in an evidentiary rather than a medical register. It is a damages- and credibility-adjacent claim, not a filing statement, and no source is offered for either figure. A party statement, not a court finding.
Watch at 00:14 — youtube.com ↗I've had a lot of negative things happen to me over these past few years and uh this Bosch [caption garble — "botched"] plastic surgery was kind of like the nail in the coffin. I was just hoping I could get some compensation so that I can…
A plain statement of what he wants out of the eye-surgery matter — compensation and closure — offered without reference to any particular case. It is the baseline against which the pressure statement made later in the same video (at 1:15) should be read.
Watch / source — youtube.com ↗it's gotten to the point where I'm asking you guys just to to help and share my videos as much as possible because if these people get enough exposure and they lose enough business and they lose enough money, which is all they care about,…
The opponents' financial loss is stated as the operative mechanism, and settlement ("pay me to go away") as the object. That is cost imposition named as the motive in his own words. Tiered Moderate rather than Strong deliberately: the Strong rubric requires filing conduct, and the pressure mechanism described here is viewer-driven reputational and commercial damage, not a filing — the same call the contract makes for leafleting. Tier: Moderate (Cost imposition as stated motive)
Watch at 01:15 — youtube.com ↗So uh if you guys can please share this video, share the stories, whether it's uh the Bosch by Tobond [caption garble — "botchedbytaban.com"] stuff or just my business in general, anything to help me at this point.
This is what turns the previous quote from an abstract wish into a directed ask — it identifies the body of material ("the Bosch by Tobond stuff") and therefore the target, the surgeon side of the Taban eye-surgery dispute. Same mechanism, same motive, now with an addressee.
Watch at 01:48 — youtube.com ↗The single most effective thing you can do to get back at a doctor that has wronged you is to hand out flyers, business cards about what happened to you. You know, explain the situation, show before and after pictures, have a website to…
The clearest statement in this slice of leafleting as a deliberate pressure method, framed as advice to viewers rather than as a case fact. Mechanism, written out so the tier call is auditable: the cost is imposed by driving away a surgeon's prospective patients outside his office, not by any filing. Per the contract's leafleting rule, Cost imposition as stated motive is the right factor because cost imposition is the stated point, but the tier is capped at Moderate because the Strong rubric requires filing conduct and there is none here. Tier: Moderate (Cost imposition as stated motive)
Watch / source — youtube.com ↗And the reason I haven't done this yet to the doctor that botched me is because I'm still being positive and I'm still hoping that someone can fix my eyes because this would be such a damaging thing. You would literally put the doctor out…
A negative datestamp — the most useful thing this video contributes. It fixes 2025-04-28 as a point at which the leafleting campaign had been announced and recruited for but, on his own account, not executed against the surgeon who operated on him. That brackets the already-archived execution evidence (the 2025-08-10 LpQS6Vn9XDg and 2025-09-24 o3brFjHWxxg Medical Malpractice Awareness livestreams) from below, and it does so in his own words rather than by absence of evidence. It also states the intended commercial magnitude ("out of business probably in a few weeks"). Tier: Moderate (Cost imposition as stated motive)
Watch at 00:42 — youtube.com ↗And going through court and posting online and all that stuff, they control those venues. They control the court system. They control the internet. They control social media. What they can't control is some angry lunatic handing out flyers…
The passage that explains the video's title, and the one with the most bearing on the research question. He casts litigation and online publication as venues his opponents control, and leafleting as the residual venue they do not — i.e. the forum-bias allegation is offered as the reason for choosing an extrajudicial pressure method over further filing. That is a different posture from the more usual "the courts are corrupt so I will file again" framing found elsewhere in the archive, and it is worth preserving as such. Tier: Moderate (Judicial or forum bias alleged; Cost imposition as stated motive)
Watch at 01:23 — youtube.com ↗Um, and as I said, the reason I haven't done that yet is because I I believe it would be so impactful that that's a last resort thing. You would put the doctor out of business 100%. they'd have to relocate their office and hire private…
Confirms the video's frame — this is a generalised answer to viewer correspondence, not an announcement about his own next step, and he explicitly reserves the tactic. The escalation described ("relocate their office and hire private security") is the video's furthest reach. Tier: Moderate (Cost imposition as stated motive)
Watch at 01:46 — youtube.com ↗because Google reviews, Real Self [caption garble — "RealSelf"], any sort of platform that hosts reviews for plastic surgeons is 100% controlled by them.
Names Google and RealSelf in one breath, three months before the two are named together as defendants in C018 and again in C058. The allegation — platform control of surgeon reviews — is the pleaded theory of both. Tier: Moderate (No filing-conduct factor)
Watch at 00:06 — youtube.com ↗Uh the doctor who botched me, Tiban [caption garble — "Taban"], who was the number one eye cosmetic, basically a celebrity surgeon, ruined every single procedure he did to my face. yet he had a fivestar review on Google.
The bridge between two dispute groups — the eye-surgery surgeon named by (garbled) surname, and the review platform whose rating is said to conceal his record, the subject of the Google / RealSelf litigation. The case tracker codes C018 and C058 across exactly that boundary. Recorded as what the speaker said; this research takes no position on whether it is true.
Watch at 00:19 — youtube.com ↗So whether I'm going to sue Google in the future for that is up in the air.
A prospective filing named against a specific, later-actual defendant, 88 days before the first tracked Google action was filed. Tiered Moderate rather than Strong because no case existed on the publish date and none is identified in the words — the Strong rubric needs an identified case plus a core factor, and a prospective filing is neither. Tier: Moderate (Threatened or prospective filing)
Watch at 00:41 — youtube.com ↗But any sort of online review thing, these doctors pay a lot of money to have all of the negative reviews removed. And on top of that, most of the good reviews are completely fake and fabricated.
States the wrong that C018 and C058 plead — paid removal of negative reviews — before either was filed, and states it as a general market practice rather than as a claim against a particular defendant. Tier: Moderate (No filing-conduct factor)
Watch at 00:46 — youtube.com ↗Yeah, one pretty important fact I forgot to include in the complaint is that I do use medical oxygen. Uh, so if they did cut my electric off, that would be a little bit of an issue, I guess, when I'm sleeping.
A first-person account of a substantive omission from a pleading in the PPL / Frontier utilities matter, and the stated reason for the renewed injunctive-relief request he describes at [0:38]. It supplies the factual basis (medical-oxygen dependency) that the tracked docket record for C005 does not itself spell out. Tier: Moderate (Filing announced or confirmed)
Watch / source — youtube.com ↗So, we made three more filings in the court today. The first was the notice of appeal, which is just appealing the judge's decision on not giving me the restraining order to keep my power on. The second was a motion to disqualify, which…
The tracked record for C005 states that after the 2025-04-21 preliminary-objections order, "Tufano responded with a Notice of Appeal, Amended Notice of Appeal, Emergency Request for Injunctive Relief, and a Motion to Disqualify and Request for Jury Trial (all filed 2025-04-21/22)." This video, published 2025-04-22, names three of those four instruments in order and says they were filed "today" — an internal marker that fixes the upload lag at effectively zero and lets the video stand as a same-day, first-person corroboration of a docket entry. The disqualification motion is expressly grounded on judicial bias in his own words. A notice of appeal is a direct appellate remedy within the same case, so it is deliberately not classified as filing after an adverse decision — that factor means a new or repeat action, not the ordinary appeal.
Watch at 00:11 — youtube.com ↗And then I filed a new request for the injunctive relief, including that I'm on the medical oxygen and that it would be ridiculous like if I had to rent a generator to to preserve my health and all of that stuff.
Matches the "Emergency Request for Injunctive Relief" the C005 record places in the same 2025-04-21/22 cluster, and gives its stated content. Tier: Moderate (Filing announced or confirmed)
Watch at 00:38 — youtube.com ↗But at the end of the day, these judges in these courts can do whatever they want. So, go figure it.
Generalises the specific disqualification allegation at [0:22] into a claim about courts at large. Recorded because the same framing recurs across the archive — a video published six days later carries the same “they control the court system” statement.
Watch at 00:50 — youtube.com ↗What a surprise. Judge took less than one business day to side in favor of the big electric company. Hearing on Friday first thing Monday morning. I get an email stating my case is dismissed.
A specific timeline (Friday hearing, Monday-morning dismissal) that matches this dataset's own record for C005: preliminary objections were granted by Order dated 2025-04-21 — the same day this video was published.
Watch / source — youtube.com ↗They're saying, "Oh, this isn't the correct jurisdiction." What do you mean? It's a Pennsylvania state case, we are in Pennsylvania State Court. ... They didn't even serve their response correctly for me, so I didn't get a chance to…
Frames the dismissal as based on a jurisdiction objection plus an alleged service defect that denied him a chance to respond — consistent in spirit with C005's tracked record describing the granted objections as "unanswered" preliminary objections.
Watch at 00:27 — youtube.com ↗Yeah. So, I went down to the courthouse today and filed the appeal on the notice. We'll see what they say. Uh they did send me another shut off termination notice for next week
“Today” is an internal same-day recording marker, and it lands on the exact date the docket records activity. The recorded court findings for C005 state that after the 2025-04-21 Order granting preliminary objections, Tufano “responded with a Notice of Appeal, Amended Notice of Appeal, Emergency Request for Injunctive Relief, and a Motion to Disqualify and Request for Jury Trial, all filed 2025-04-21/22.” The video was published 2025-04-21. The phrase “the appeal on the notice” is ambiguous and this research takes no position: it reads either as the Notice of Appeal in C005 (matching the docket), or as an appeal of the utility's termination notice through a non-judicial channel (a Pennsylvania PUC dispute, which the dataset does not track). The first reading is favoured by the same-day docket match; the second by the sentence's own subject matter, since the very next clause is about a termination notice. A docket check would settle it.
Watch / source — youtube.com ↗I'm just worried because I need oxygen at night to sleep uh for my health. I have, you know, medical issues. So, you know, if they turn my power off and I can't sleep at night and I end up in the hospital or whatever happens, I'm like a…
This is the harm theory underpinning the restraining-order request pleaded in C005 (the recorded claims summary notes he "sought … a restraining order against shutoff") and the Emergency Request for Injunctive Relief filed 2025-04-21/22 per the recorded court findings. Stated on camera the same day. Recorded as a party statement of asserted harm, not as an established fact: nothing in the dataset corroborates the medical claim, and this research takes no position on it. "I'm like a hospital" at 0:21 is a caption garble.
Watch at 00:09 — youtube.com ↗And I cannot afford a $4,000 electric bill for 3 months of residential electric in my house when last year it was like $300 a month.
A quantified statement of the disputed charge. The $300-a-month baseline is the closest any video in this cluster comes to the pleading: C005's claims summary, drawn from the Verified Complaint, records a November bill of $333.02 rising to $1,603.75 in February. The $4,000-for-three-months total, however, is one of four different figures he gives for this charge across the related videos.
Watch at 00:39 — youtube.com ↗Electric company price gouged me. I called them. They wouldn't resolve it. I sued them in court. Judge just dismisses it and and you know screws me
The whole sequence compressed into eight seconds — the grievance, the failed informal resolution, the suit, the adverse ruling, and the attribution of that ruling to the judge rather than to the merits. It is a same-day report of the 2025-04-21 Order granting both defendants' unanswered preliminary objections in C005 (recorded among the court findings; Powell, J.). Note the characterisation gap: the order granted preliminary objections; the video calls it a dismissal, and the title goes further — "Judge Supports Price Gouging." Those are his characterisations of the ruling, not the ruling's own terms, and this research adopts neither.
Watch at 00:52 — youtube.com ↗So, we just got out of this Grand Courthouse. We had a hearing for the temporary restraining order so that the electric company doesn't turn off my power while we're trying to settle this dispute. They basically charged me $5,000 for 3…
Confirms, in the first person and in the past tense (“we just got out”), that a hearing on the temporary-restraining-order request in the PPL/Frontier dispute took place. The recorded litigation timeline for that dispute records no hearing event at all — it jumps from the complaint's filing (2025-02-18) straight to preliminary objections being granted (2025-04-21). The restraining order itself is a pleaded request: the claims-summary record for C005 notes that he “sought … a restraining order against shutoff.” This states a docket event the dataset does not have. Its date is not established by this video.
Watch / source — youtube.com ↗So, I had to file the lawsuit. And at this hearing, my assumption was, you know, we just have to see that there's a clear dispute, that there's a clear issue that needs to be settled, and then we can grant the restraining order. But for…
States the filing as his own act and gives his account of the hearing's conduct — his objection is that the court entertained the defendants' arguments at all at the TRO stage. Read against the docket, the defendants' vehicle was preliminary objections, granted unanswered five days after this video was published (per the recorded court findings, Order of 2025-04-21, Powell, J.). The video does not name the judge, the objections, or the docket number.
Watch at 00:30 — youtube.com ↗the judge is just going to protect the the electric company. They're going to try to screw me. You you don't really have any any resolve against these people.
A forum-bias allegation made before the adverse ruling, not after it — which makes it different in kind from the same allegation in the companion video MdJdE0sjMKM (published 2025-04-21, the day the objections were granted). A research classification of what he said; not a finding about the court. "resolve" is an auto-caption rendering of what is almost certainly "recourse" — kept as captioned.
Watch at 01:02 — youtube.com ↗What's crazy to me is they probably paid 10 to$15,000 in uh attorney fees, just the retainer to their attorney instead of just, you know, giving me the few thousand bucks that would have resolved the issue. So, this whole scenario is…
Two things. First, the retainer estimate is deployed as a grievance — they would rather pay lawyers than pay him — not as satisfaction at the cost he has imposed. The same distinction was drawn for the 2025-03-22 instance of this figure in a companion video, and it is why Cost imposition as stated motive is not the right factor here: he is not framing the opponent's spend as the point of filing. Second, "we'll find out what the judge says in a week or two" dates a pending decision as of publication; the order granting preliminary objections issued 2025-04-21, five days later. "Their attorney" is singular for both defendants, which is weak, hedged support for the still-unverified claim that the defendants shared one lawyer — noted, not asserted.
Watch at 01:10 — youtube.com ↗Yeah, I keep forgetting that not everyone has watched all my videos and knows the entire backstory. I've had over 10 corrective procedures since the botch procedure. And if you guys go to botchbytabbond.com and see those initial pictures…
A procedure count of "over 10" stated on 2025-04-16 — months earlier than the three counts wave 1 flagged as conflicting, and therefore something that sharpens the conflict rather than settling it. Note the phrasing precisely, because the denominator is doing the work: he says "over 10 corrective procedures since the botch procedure", which is a count of remedial operations after the index surgery, explicitly excluding it. The two competing readings are set out in full in ## Research Notes; this file adopts neither. The quote also carries the first of the video's two renderings of the website domain. Party statement, no source offered.
Watch at 00:08 — youtube.com ↗And it's probably going to be 15 procedures before I can try to get looking back to normal.
A forward-looking figure — 15 total before restoration — offered as an estimate ("probably"), not as a scheduled plan. It is useful chiefly as a bound on the reading of quote 2: on 2025-04-16 he places himself at "over 10" and ~5 short of a projected endpoint. Any later count in the archive can be tested against that trajectory. Party statement, an estimate, no source offered.
Watch at 00:30 — youtube.com ↗It's just I have a platform. I have a social media presence. So, I'm able to speak up for myself and prevent this guy from doing this to anyone else in some capacity.
He states the purpose of the video campaign directly: deterrence and public warning, achieved through audience reach, framed as something he can do because he has a platform. It is the eye-surgery-dispute counterpart to the same claim made about the TikTok dispute in a video three weeks later ("the only way they suffer in any capacity is if they get exposed on social media"), and the two together are the clearest available statement of how he understands the channel to sit alongside the docket. Note what it is not: there is no cost framing — the opponent's legal spend is never mentioned — so Cost imposition as stated motive was considered and rejected. And there is no filing conduct of any kind. Party statement, no source offered.
