SPOTSYLVANIA COUNTY, VA — ERIC MARTIN / MACGYVER GROUP FULL INVESTIGATION CaseLock has compiled a full investigation into Eric Martin and his company MacGyver Group LLC, revealing a decade-long pattern of political consulting, board appointments, and taxpayer-funded contracts in Spotsylvania County. WHO IS ERIC MARTIN? Eric Martin owns MacGyver Group LLC (6113 Sunlight Mountain Rd, Spotsylvania VA 22553) and americanhosting.us. His business is described as: Audio Engineering, Live Event Management, Economic Development, Tourism, Project Manager II. He holds a VA DPOR contractor license (expires 02/29/2028). BOARD APPOINTMENTS CONFIRMED: 1. Transportation Committee — Salem District rep (confirmed via 2016 BOS minutes) 2. Kalahari tax district authority — APPOINTED BY YAKABOUSKI (confirmed via fredericksburg.com) 3. Advisory Committee — reappointed (confirmed via BOS meeting agenda) VPAP CAMPAIGN FINANCE DATA: MacGyver Group received $14,350 from the stadium trio campaigns. Eric Martin personally donated $500 to Yakabouski. This is verified through Virginia Public Access Project records. THE PATTERN: APPOINTED → BEFRIENDS → RESIGNS → CREATES → SELLS CaseLock's FOIA dossier documents a decade-long paid consulting relationship between MacGyver Group and data center supervisors. The pattern is consistent: Martin gets appointed to a board, befriends the decision-makers, resigns, creates a new program, and then sells that program back to the county for taxpayer money. SPC (SPOTSYLVANIA POLITICAL CHAT) FINDINGS: SPC contributors have documented Martin 'working behind the scenes with other rhinos,' using fake Facebook accounts, and tagging #collectingfavors with Rich Lieberman. These social media artifacts corroborate the FOIA paper trail. YAKABOUSKI COMMISSIONER OF REVENUE RACE: Chris Yakabouski is now running for Commissioner of the Revenue in the Nov 3, 2026 special election (early voting Sept 18, 2026). His campaign website is yakabouski.com. VPAP shows $20,159 self-funded and $3,000 from Four Mile Fork LP. Previous BOS donors include Tricord Homes ($7,000 — Craig Jones, the $5M New Post Sportsplex developer) and MacGyver Group ($500). Yakabouski won his BOS seat by just 16 votes (recount Dec 2025). WHY THIS MATTERS: If Yakabouski is elected Commissioner of the Revenue, he would control tax assessments for the entire county — including properties owned by his donors and appointees. The Eric Martin / MacGyver Group network shows how board appointments and campaign donations create a web of influence over county decisions, from the $5M New Post Sportsplex deal to data center development. All findings verified against VPAP, fredericksburg.com, BOS meeting minutes/Boarddocs, and CaseLock FOIA records.
