Jonathon Tepes Sharkey[3] (born John Albert Sharkey; April 2, 1964) is an American former professional wrestler, and has been a candidate in multiple elections for public office.

Background

Sharkey was born in Elizabeth, New Jersey and joined the United States Army in 1981. Following his discharge on medical grounds in 1983,[4] he studied at Kansas State University.[5] He has lived in Minnesota and resides in Florida.[6] Sharkey has three living children, and a fourth child who is now deceased.[7] He married Oksana Shavaryn in 2016.[8]

Musician/actor

A drummer since the age of 5, as well as a guitarist, Sharkey is endorsed by Soultone Cymbals, and has recorded an album of Elvis Presley cover songs. He has also appeared in several films, both as an actor and as a soundtrack composer.[5]

Wrestling career

Originally a boxer,

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. He cites his greatest wrestling influences as Ric Flair and Ricky Steamboat.[7]

Vampirism

Sharkey says he first

drank blood at age five and consumed the blood of his girlfriends and mistresses twice a week.[9][10] He has described his vampirism as "a very healthy thing to do" and has praised Hollywood for making vampire feeding practices "romantic and erotic". He drinks only women's blood because "women are beautiful... they have such beautiful necks and arms".[11] He says he is well known within the vampire community, and says he drinks cow and pig blood.[12] While in Tennessee he reportedly attempted to set up a colony for vampires.[12][13]

Sharkey was a Luciferian[7] who "turned against God" because he would not worship a God who "caused the deaths of innocent children" and "allowed his only son to be used as a sacrifice on the cross".[11] He compares Lucifer to the Founding Fathers of the United States, arguing that they both exemplify the idea of rebellion against tyranny.[7] He says he doesn't hate Jesus, just God the Father, and that he follows the goddess Hecate in addition to Lucifer.[7]

Politics

Political campaigns

Sharkey filed with the

governor of Minnesota.[21]

Sharkey once served on the Hillsborough County, Florida, Republican Party's executive committee. A. J. Matthews, who also served on the committee, described Sharkey as someone who believes in "Republican values" but said that Sharkey needs to focus on campaign issues rather than "extreme behaviors".[22]

Political positions

Sharkey strongly criticized President

communist who was responsible for the deaths of innocent Americans in Saudi Arabia and Iraq. He has expressed a desire to try, and convict, and impale Bush,[11] and has since said that "Obama is even worse than Bush, and I never thought anyone could be worse than Bush. He has no idea how to run a country, nor should he be running a country."[7]

Sharkey said that he would ban

marijuana and prostitution, which Sharkey supports legalizing and regulating. On foreign policy, he wished to bring American troops home from foreign war zones. In keeping with his belief in the goddess Hecate, he supports environmentalism and "protecting Mother Earth". He said that his ideal running mate would be former New Jersey governor Christine Todd Whitman. During the 2012 election, he criticized Republican rival Michele Bachmann as "too flakey for me".[7]

He described his policy on

drug dealers is to "go to Sicilian families and have them attack the drug dealers for me".[11]

Legal troubles

Sharkey was investigated by the United States Secret Service for threatening to impale President George W. Bush. Agents visited Sharkey at his home for questioning. A spokesman for the Secret Service said that he didn't believe the investigation was an overreaction.[23]

He was also jailed in Tennessee for making threats against an Indiana judge. Investigators confiscated two rifles and a wooden stake with spikes at his house.[12][13]

Sharkey's 2006 bid for Minnesota governor was cut short after Sharkey was arrested by Minnesota police on an outstanding Indiana arrest warrant, sent to

Mille Lacs County jail and extradited to Indiana.[1]

He has also been accused of "brainwashing" a 16-year-old girl in Minnesota, whose family sought a restraining order against him, and admitted to harassing another 16-year-old Minnesota girl online.[22]

In 2010, the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children issued an alert after a 16-year-old girl, Paige Brewer, from Faribault, Minnesota ran away with Sharkey. The alert described Brewer as an "endangered runaway". Brewer's mother eventually won a court order keeping Sharkey away from her daughter, who was taken into custody by police [24] and returned home.[25]
