Albert Harraka is a former Connecticut correctional officer who has made it his mission to come after me online. From leaving 84 YouTube comments on my channel demanding I show an unclothed baby, it spiraled into fake profiles using my photograph, baby pictures sent as a tool of harassment, family threats posted to my website the night before a court hearing, and hundreds of posts across various social media platforms in less than a month. This is who he is and how it started.
Before Any of This Involved Me
August 12, 2020
This is Harraka on Twitter/X before I knew he existed. In response to a post warning that protesters entering a property could face tear gas and impact weapons, he wrote “It’s time to bust the heads of these idiots who are intentionally trying to hurt the police.”
That tells you something about who this person is before a single word was ever exchanged between us.
There is also a 2017 federal court record worth noting. A coworker filed a lawsuit against the Connecticut Department of Corrections alleging harassment by Harraka and vandalism of her vehicle on DOC property. She also cited racism. It is a public record and is noted here as such.

November 25, 2019: Where the Contradiction Starts
A stock trader named Tessa Lamping posted on Twitter/X about working on her trades without taking time to get dressed, using hashtags like “notimeforclothes” and “tradingmomlife.” The post included images. Albert Harraka replied “The little one is too cute.” I blacked out the image.
Keep that in mind as you read the rest of this.
November 2025: The Video [Ex_4 image]
In November 2025 I did a video on my YouTube channel titled “Ex Correctional Officer Trolled and Exposed.” The video covered Harraka’s overall behavior including racist comments and his background. It was approximately sixteen minutes long.
In that video I referenced the Tessa Lamping post once. I noted that the image he commented on included what appeared to be an unclothed woman, though nothing was showing, next to a laptop with stock trading software, and a baby in a tub. I said I thought it was weird. I did not call him a pedophile. I did not imply he was attracted to children. I said it was weird, once, in a sixteen minute video about many other things, and moved on.
What followed was 84 YouTube comments from Harraka. Not responding to the racism. Not responding to the lawsuit. Locked entirely onto that one moment.
He demanded I expose the picture. Repeatedly. He accused me of making sexual innuendos. He called me a fraud and told me to get a real job. I blocked him after 84 comments.
Here is the contradiction. He accused me of sexualizing a situation involving a child. Then he became the only person in the exchange actively seeking out pictures of babies in bathtubs and sending them to me, encouraging others to do the same, to prove that nothing was wrong with his original comment.
That is not how someone responds when they want to prove innocence.
January 2026: The Escalation
What started as YouTube comments turned into something else entirely in January 2026.
A Facebook page called “Bad People,” operated by Harraka and confirmed as him in court, began posting my home address publicly, soliciting people to share negative stories about me, and amplifying attacks from others including Kookaburra Files, an account associated with Richard Heinz.
Albert Harraka has also posted my address on multiple occasions. If I did that to him, he’d probably go ballistic!
He created a fake social media profile using my photograph with the username “illbendoverformen” and the display name “No nuts eric neal.” He also reposted weird AI pictures of me in female clothing. It was originally posted by “Kookaburra Files,” a man named Richard Heinz. I guess that’s how Heinz was thinking of me.. in woman’s clothing?
He posted baby bath pictures to taunt me, framing my refusal to post an unclothed baby on my channel as me being “nervous.” The blur-outs are mine.
His Pablo account on Twitter/X posted the court Zoom details for the HPO hearing publicly, inviting anyone who dislikes me to attend. Valerie McGilvrey asked what time. He told her 11am. Also, with that, he admitted the fake Pablo account using my image was him. Albert Harraka was the only one that would have access to that email from the court.
He posted “you’re going to be my bride” and “Is Eric married? Hmmmmm” in the same timeframe.
The night before the court hearing, two comments were posted to my WordPress website from a similar email he used in the past, threatening me with prison r*pe and threatening my family if I showed up to court.
In total across approximately 26 days in January 2026, the Pablo and associated accounts produced over 450 posts targeting me. Across all platforms the number exceeded 600. That was back then. At the time of writing this article in May of 2026, there have been well over 1500.
I filed for a Harassment Prevention Order at Peabody District Court. At the January 27, 2026 hearing Harraka appeared by video and agreed to stop. He confirmed I had taken everything down on him. The case was dismissed based on that agreement.
He started back up a few weeks later.
The Bottom Line
This started because I mentioned something once in a sixteen minute video and said it was weird. The person who accused me of sexualizing the situation became the only one in the exchange actively distributing pictures of babies in bathtubs. The person who said I was harassing people proceeded to post my home address, create fake profiles using my photograph, threaten my family, and produce over 600 posts about me in less than a month.
