### References
**Trevor Stanwick** is mentioned twice in Dr. Leland Jensen's *First Epistle to Joseph Pepe Remey* (June 8, 1989) on pages 6–7;
>How did Shoghi Effendi get to be guardian? He is not an Aghsan (a sperm descendant of King David). His mother was 'Abdu'l-Baha's daughter and his father was an Afnan a collateral relative of the Bab, a descendant of Mohammed. 'Abdu'l-Baha didn't adopt him, therefore he could not and did not sit on David's throne.
>
'Abdu'l-Baha appointed Shoghi Effendi guardian of the Cause of God so he would use the Imam administration, which he was entitled to use as an Afnan and an Imam, to carry out the Divine Plan left him by 'Abdu'l-Baha. This Babi administration was to be used as the main part of the sting operation: carried out first by Shoghi Effendi and later by Mason Remey; and then it was to be discarded.
>
>All the above has been a mystery and is the main cause of confusion in the Baha'i world. The explanation of this mystery has been very well explained in a manuscript entitled *Shoghi Effendi's Big Sting* by Dr. Trevor Stanwick. A copy is enclosed. Dr. Stanwick is a Ph.D. in Microbiology. He taught Microbiology and did research in AIDS, herpes and other sexually transmitted diseases at various medical schools and universities, such as The Chicago Medical College and the University of Montana. He quit his job several years ago so that he could devote his entire time to research and writing booklets, papers, and manuscripts for the Baha'i Faith. This enclosed manuscript will be published in a book of nine authors.
The second mention is on page 39;
>This body \[of believers] has been involved in various phases of research, such as that of Dr. Trevor Stanwick Ph.D., a research scientist who has researched out many subjects such as the one enclosed. There are many more highly educated parts of this body \[people] that are doing likewise.
**Trevor Stanwick** was also mentioned in Dr. Leland Jensen's *Second Epistle to Joseph Pepe Remey* (July 1989) on page 8;
>The bashing of teachers has long continued and it is usually by those that don't teach. These dear souls that you criticize are sacrificing their all to seat you on the throne that Baha'u'llah placed on Mt. Carmel. About three or four years ago Dr. Trevor Stanwick, a teacher of Microbiology at the University of Montana, resigned his lucrative position in order to spend his entire time researching, writing and teaching, spending a fortune that reduced him to poverty, in order to establish your kingship in the world. What thanks does he get from you — a slap in the face. They make mistakes, but they learn by teaching.
