September 3, 2014 at 1:30 P.M. Attempts to create a new blog at NYPL, Computer Number #4 (Morningside Heights) were obstructed. I will continue to try to create a new blog here at blogspot.
If I am unable to create another blog at this location, I will try to find a separate place where I can write online. At the moment I am prevented from creating another blog at blogspot.
Efforts to access the blogspot feature that allows for the creation of new blogs are obstructed from my home computer as well as library computers 24 hours per day. ("NSA Spying is Illegal" and "Glen Greenwald's Partner Detained.")
I will increase the number of posts to 295 in all four blogs. I will then transfer and delete posts -- not the more important ones -- from these blogs to my Google Group, or other locations. This move will allow me to continue writing at blogspot, indefinitely, focusing on New Jersey corruption and political events for the foreseeable future, while keeping the total number of posts in each blog at 295 (or less) on a perpetual basis. ("Why I am not an ethical relativist" and "John Finnis and Ethical Cognitivism.")
I will persist, however, in efforts to create alternative locations, online, where more blogs may be created for further archiving and multiplying of my text-posts. The essays and posts will not go away and neither will I.
I anticipate continuing efforts to silence me and suppress these writings even as I am stolen from, evidently, to the indifference of the local authorities. I am flattered. ("The Invicta Watch Company" and "The Invicta Watch Company Caper.")
Given the ease with which 2,000 people are murdered in some places -- as 10,000 more are wounded and 100,000 are left homeless -- daily censorship, harassments, insults, violations of my rights (and yours, as readers of my works) are only to be expected from the sort of persons capable of so many dreadful crimes in the world. ("Have you no shame, Mr. Rabner?")
Many of the 2,000 persons (mostly women and children) killed in Gaza were decapitated, but there was no sense of outrage in the Koch brothers' New York Post. The outrage in U.S. media is reserved for the indisputably hateful crimes of ISIS members and Mr. Putin's annoying refusal to obey American orders. ("Mr. Putin's Advice to America" and "Fidel Castro's 'History Will Absolve Me.'")
Strangely, no one at blogger or google can help with this obstruction to my creation of a blog. Not a word has been received from New Jersey's OAE. Mr. Menendez? Mr. Christie? Ms. James? ("The Audacity of Hope" and "Israel Heightens Gaza Crisis.")
No one who cooperated with these censorship tactics or with my enemies in New Jersey would be wise to try to speak to, or associate in any way, with me, especially any so-called friends or relatives. ("New Jersey's 'Ethical' Legal System" and "John McGill, Esq., the OAE, and N.J. Corruption.")
September 3, 2014 at 7:21 A.M. The cable box from Time/Warner has been disabled and will not turn-on to receive the television signal this morning.
My phones may not be working so as to receive assistance in dealing with this problem. All services have been fully paid.
No response has been received (by me) to my communications (which have been acknowledged by their intended addressees and/or recipients) from any government office nor from the Invicta Watch Company. How strange?
I will continue to write. ("Psychological Torture in the American Legal System.")
September 2, 2014 at 9:39 A.M. "Julia Baird" of the Times may also use the name "Jennifer Shuessler" among others. Has "Ms. Baird" -- under any of her names -- visited my sites? Can Ms. Baird identify "Jill Ketchum"? "Carlota Gall"? "Manohla Dargis"? Has Ms. Baird used all of these names at the Times? Is Ms. Baird also "Jill Abramson"?

Europe is not in the mood for meaningful sanctions against Russia -- at great economic sacrifice for Europe -- in light of NSA spying disclosures generating hostility to the U.S. among the people.)

Shawn Boburg, "Probers Eye Dock Deal: Agency Paid Firm's Debt, Forgave Back Rent," The Record, August 27, 2014, p. A-1.
"The MANHATTAN District Attorney's Office is investigating a secret $25 million legal settlement between the Port Authority and a politically-connected seaport company that excused $15 million in unpaid rent in Brooklyn and Newark and handed over $10 million of public money to cover other debts." ("Christie Gives Donor $1 Million of New Jersey Money" and "Law and Ethics in the Soprano State.")
This has become an old story at the Port Authority: corruption, incompetence, thefts, and the sacrifice of the interest of New Jersey's and New York's public in order to benefit a few lawyers and/or political law firms as well as politicians connected to organized crime figures getting much richer at our expense. ("John McGill, Esq., the OAE, and New Jersey Corruption.")
The shysters and crooked officials are almost always from New Jersey. ("Herbert Klitzner, Esq.'s Greed and New Jersey's Hypocrisy!" and "Have you no shame, Mr. Rabner?" then "David Samson Resigns!")
"$350,000" of the people's money went to the law firm representing alleged mob-front companies dealing with the Port Authority in the form of Weiss and Miller, Esqs. This time it was not Samson and Wolf, Esqs.? Lowenstein, Sadler, Esqs.? ("Corrupt Law Firms, Senator Bob, and New Jersey Ethics" and "New Jersey's Politically-Connected Lawyers On the Tit" then "New Jersey Lawyers' Ethics Farce" and "Lawyers Have No Ethics!")
"Prosecutors have sent the Port Authority a wide-ranging subpoena requesting information about its 2011 agreement with American Stevedoring Inc. (ASI) and any related communications involving the offices of Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.), Governor Christie and New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, according to two sources with knowledge of the subpoena."
Perhaps the file that Representative Nadler was holding up for me to see, when I saw him on the Upper-West Side of Manhattan, is related to this matter? ("An Open Letter to My Torturers in New Jersey, Terry Tuchin and Diana Lisa Riccioli.")
I wonder whether Amy Rutkin of Mr. Nadler's office has visited my sites and/or read any of my writings? Does Ms. Rutkin favor censorship for gentiles writing blogs online? Does Ms. Rutkin have "friends" at Blogger? Mossad? Has "Matt Yates" of ASI read any of my writings? Were either of these persons, Ms. Rutkin and Mr. Yates, at The Philosophy Cafe in New York, or online? If so, at whose request were either (or both) of these persons at The Philosophy Cafe? ("How censorship works in America.")
The PA's secret deal to benefit a "connected" contractor with taxpayer money was never made public. The PA "never disclosed the pact to the public, as it has with other settlements." This non-disclosure alone may violate the law. ("Mafia Influence in New Jersey Courts and Politics" and "Diana's Friend Goes to Prison!")
"Between 1997 and 2011, Sal Catucci, the firm's owner, his wife Lorraine, and ASI gave more than $315,000 to political campaigns. ... "
I wonder whether these people know Dr. Melgen? ("Menendez Croney's Office Raided" and "Menendez Consorts With Underage Prostitutes.")
The biggest donation was to conservatives; no money went directly to Mr. Christie or Mr. Cuomo. ("Is Menendez For Sale?" and "Bribery in Union City, New Jersey.")
Anyone using PA facilities at 42nd Street knows of the urgent need for expansion of that facility, modernization and improvements to handle the increased volume of commuters. ("Port Authority Faces FBI and SEC Investigations.")
In this climate of intense user-pressure and inadequate facilities for the Port Authority vast sums are thrown away on what amounts to extortion from contractors and unrealistic projects that seem never to be completed. ("New Jersey is the Home of the Living Dead.")
Like the Xanadu Mall/American Dream catastrophe in New Jersey which has allowed for the disappearance of $4-5 BILLION of taxpayer money with little or nothing to show for it -- except that lawyers and politicians as well as shady contractors are much richer -- the PA spends money to make the lives of travelers more difficult and unpleasant as "appreciative" mobsters become richer. ("Mafia influence in New Jersey Courts and Politics.")
New Jersey's sleazeball lawyers and bribed judges presume to speak to me of "ethics." (Again: "New Jersey is the Home of the Living Dead" and "New Jersey's Unethical Judiciary.")
ASI is a contractor with a history of problems with the PA for non-payment of rent and defective (or non-performance) of contractual obligations.
As with Stuart Rabner's Supreme Court, the word "incompetent" seems to arise spontaneously in discussing ASI. ("New Jersey's Failed Judiciary" and "New Jersey's Judges Disgrace America.")
The owner of ASI, SALVATOR "SAL" CATUCCI, alleged organized crime "affiliated" individual, without a criminal record, has worked to cultivate friendships with politicians like Jerrold Nadler, by "donating" hundreds of thousands of dollars in campaign contributions over the years, "including nearly $20,000 to Nadler." Cash? Menendez usually gets cash, Jerry. ("Is Menendez For Sale?" and "Solomon Dwek Gets 6-Year Prison Sentence" and "Does Senator Menendez have mafia friends?" then "Neil M. Cohen, Esq. and Conduct Unbecoming to the Legislature in New Jersey.")
" ... the Port Authority agreed not only to forgive the $15 million in unpaid rent -- it also agreed to pay the company's long list of debts owed to third parties. That included money ASI owed to other firms affiliated with Catucci or his family members, according to a copy of the settlement." ("Stuart Rabner's Selective Sense of Justice" and "Cement is Gold.")
Allegedly, DIANA LISA RICCIOLI, is mentioned in recordings, if any, relating to these matters. I wonder whether Ms. Riccioli knows the Catucci "family"? ("Diana's Friend Goes to Prison!" and "Marilyn Straus Was Right!")
" ... More than $930,000 went to a separate firm owned by Catucci who federal prosecutors have described in court papers as a MOB ASSOCIATE." ("More Mafia Influence in New Jersey Courts and Politics" and "More Mafia Arrests in New Jersey and Anne Milgram is Clueless.")

Woman Guilty in New Jersey Sex Sting.
August 29, 2014 at 2:33 P.M. It is my hope to create a new blog at blogspot. At this time, I cannot determine the obstacles that I will have to overcome in order to do so. However, I plan on posting at least one more essay in August, 2014. More New Jersey corruption issues will be discussed soon.
Isabel Kershner & Fares Akram, "After Strike On family, Fate of Hamas Commander Is Unknown," The New York Times, August 21, 2014, p. A6. (An 8 month-old "Jihadist," Ali Dief, was killed by an Israeli strike aimed at a senior Hamas leader. Was this strike "successful"? "Zero Dark Thirty.")
Rick Gladstone, "Gaza Cost Far Exceeds Estimate, Official Says," The New York Times, August 21, 2014, p. A6. (350,000 Palestinians have been "displaced" -- effectively, made homeless by the bombings in Gaza. People are surviving in the rubble.)
Deborah C. Lipstadt, "Why Jews Are Worried: Europe isn't on the cusp of another Holocaust, but it's pretty bad," (Op-Ed) The New York Times, August 21, 2014, p. A20. (Reaction to Gaza is negative and intense in the world. Fascist parties are gaining influence. Antisemitic attacks are expected; some have already taken place.)
Jodi Rudoren, "Israel Kills 3 Top Hamas Leaders as Latest Fighting Turns Its Way," The New York Times, August 22, 2014, p. A1. (I would not describe the use of an army against a civilian population -- with a few genuine guerilla fighters among them -- as "fighting" between rival military forces.)
Ed Mullins, "An Open Letter to the Chairperson of the Democratic National Convention," (Advertisement) The New York Times, August 26, 2014, p. A5. (Written ex-cathedra as President of the Sergeant's Benevolent Association -- in uniform as it were -- Mr. Mullins' letter questions the bringing of the Democratic National Convention [DNC] to Brooklyn. This is a move aimed at hurting Bill de Blasio, New York's highly successful mayor, because of the mayor's affiliation with Reverend Al Sharpton, but the move may also deprive New York of billions of dollars that might be used to pay for police services, including overtime and enhanced pay. Additional funds generated for the city by the DNC could also be used to pay for the mayor's proposal to equalize pay for police officers, overcoming gender and other biases in the pay structure, while preserving the benefits of longevity. Politicizing police roles is highly dangerous. Minority officers who disagree with Officer Mullins may establish relationships with liberal politicians, who will, possibly, reward their efforts by damaging the career prospects of more conservative officers, perhaps, who favor Republican politicians. New Jersey's disaster is an example of what happens when police departments become the private armies of politicians, or belong to one party over another. I do not care about the personal politics or opinions of police officers. No one's politics belongs on the job. Nevertheless, Mr. Mullins' statement is certainly Constitutionally protected political speech that is absolutely within his rights and must not be used against Officer Mullins in any way, direct or indirect, nor should the statement be relevant to the assessment of his performance as a police officer.)
Matt Flegenheimer & J. David Goodman, "Sergeants' Union Warns Against Convention in Brooklyn," The New York Times, August 27, 2014, p. A19. (Controversy about police entering the political fray is new in New York. This opens a dangerous door; responses are expected from other officers.)
Nikita Stewart, "Safety Agents and City Reach Labor Deal," The New York Times, August 27, 2014, p. A21. (More important than the content of speech is the fact of politicizing speech against a mayor, seeking to increase police pay, after learning that overall crime is DOWN even if there is a brief spike in shootings -- not unusual in Summer -- and some lingering quality of life issues. Weird. Was someone in politics behind this so-called "Open Letter"?)
Dan Ivers, "150 in Newark Protest Police Tactics: Spurred by Ferguson Killing Activists Call for Justice, More Accountability," The New York Times, August 21, 2014, p. 15. (The Ferguson incident seems to have focused and allowed for the expression of hostility and bewilderment when it comes to police functions in urban communities.)
"Police Militarization: Obama Calls For Review of Surplus Equipment," (Editorial) The Record, August 26, 2014, p. A-8. (Police must not see themselves as occupying armies in minority communities. It is not the police's responsibility to protect white residents from persons of color, but law-abiding citizens from criminals of all races.)
Jean Rimbach, "State Reviews Military Gear Use," The Record, August 26, 2014, p. L-1. (Tanks, planes, helicopters, drones, will be less useful than smarter and better-educated officers who can communicate with people in the streets.)
John Brennan, "Woman Pleads Guilty in Sex Ring: Helped Steer Super Bowl Visitors to Prostitutes," The Record, August 26, 2014, p. L-1.
"A 41 year-old woman has pleaded guilty of promoting prostitution to wealthy clients who received text messages advertising [emphasis added] for Meadowlands Super Bowl-related 'parties' in the days before the Feb. 2 game."
You have to feel pretty secure (or protected) to advertise illegal activity or services online.
Alternatively, you have to be a very stupid criminal to inform the world that you will be committing a crime on a particular date and time. Since this specific offender appears to be a millionaire, I doubt that the word "stupid" is applicable to her actions.
The number of people -- male and female -- in this line of work in New Jersey seems to be vastly disproportionate to what is found in other states. This reality must have a lot to do with the continuing child-prostitution and -abuse crisis in the state to say nothing of corruption. ("New Jersey Welcomes Child Molesters" and "Menendez Consorts With Underage Prostitutes.")
"NEW YORK attorney general Eric Schneiderman on Friday anounced the guilty plea of Hyun Ok Yoon Ung of Woodbury, N.Y. said to be the lead defendant [front person] in a criminal ring that sold 'party packs' involving prostitutes and cocaine."
Many of the persons "controlling" networks of prostitutes (sometimes with affiliates all over the country), including children, have a New Jersey base of operations while living outside the state. Miami, Florida seems to be a popular location for such persons. ("Marilyn Straus Was Right!" and "Diana's Friend Goes to Prison!")
Legalizing prostitution will eliminate -- or reduce -- the criminal element in the sex industry, cut down on drugs and children involved, protect the, mostly, women desperate enough to sell their bodies, or threatened into doing so, allowing those persons choosing freely to enter the sexual services "field" to do so, safely and without the stigma that benefits no one. Legalization seems like a good idea to me. ("Protecting Sex Workers" and "Prosecutorial Misconduct.")
"According to Schneiderman's office, the sex-and-drugs ring targeted out-of-town clients before and during large-scale events in the New York/New Jersey region. For example, 10 days before the Super Bowl, frequent customers received a text message that 'new sexy and beautiful girls R in town waiting for U.' In some cases the prostitutes would meet the clients and hand over drugs that had been ordered beforehand."
Women in such a situation may have no choice about "handing over" drugs. ("Abuse and Exploitation of Women in New Jersey" and "Not One More Victim.")
That is exactly the kind of thing that can be eliminated by enterprises concerned to protect their multi-million dollar licenses to provide sexual services, as with some casinos and red light districts in the world, where sex is sold without too many incidents of abuse and violation.
A defendant who had no problem turning over $700,000 in cash proceeds from a single day's business in New Jersey, to say nothing of comparable efforts with other employees in other parts of the state -- as well as other jurisdictions, like New York -- is no amateur and will have very little to say about colleagues or higher-ups in her organization.
I suspect that this defendant can also supply minors for an extra fee. ("Edward M. De Sear, Esq. and New Jersey's Filth.")
I also suspect that this person would not have been charged or convicted by New Jersey law enforcement.
That's not because of the Italian mafia which would be happy to get rid of the competition, but because of corrupt politicians and judges taking bribes in the Garden State. ("New Jersey is Lucky Luciano's Havana" and "Is Union City, New Jersey Meyer Lansky's Whore House?" then "Is Menendez For Sale?" and "Bribery in Union City, New Jersey.")
"Charges against 18 alleged members of the crime ring were filed in January -- four days before the Super Bowl at MET-life stadium -- as part [of something] called 'Operation Out of Bounds' that utilized under-cover investigators, electronic surveillance, and analyses of business records." ("Menendez Blames Castro For His Prostitution Habit!" and "New Jersey is the Home of Child Molesters.")
We need to examine OUR hypocrisy, as a society, about prostitution and drug-use in order to decide, honestly, whether we wish to deal in a serious and meaningful way with these matters that are connected with the welfare of our children and quality of life issues.
Do we really want to protect women and men in the sex industry? I hope so because many such persons are decent human beings who are far more often sinned against than sinning.
The sale of sex will never be eliminated from human societies; hence, the issue becomes whether this activity and industry can be regulated to ensure safety of sex workers and that profits (BILLIONS of dollars are spent on sex for sale) benefit the persons providing the services and/or those wishing to do so, legally, if possible. The similarity to the gaming industry is obvious.
More guilt or sanctimonious moral judgments are the last things needed in dealing with this issue, or its victims.

Jabbar Collins Serves 16 Years As An Innocent Man.
August 25, 2014 at 2:55 P.M. additional sources will be added to this text in the days ahead. Any response received to my various letters to U.S. officials will be posted online.
I do not expect a response of any kind from government officials at this time.
Salvador Rizzo, "High Court Gets Tough On Bomb Threats: Reinstates first-degree convictions, ruling presence of explosives not necessary," The Star Ledger, August 12, 2014, p. 11. (New Jersey courtrooms have been marked not only by crooked proceedings taking place within them, but also by defacements -- including feces on walls -- and threats of bombings on a regular basis. If legal systems cannot deal with their obvious failures and lingering catastrophes, "self-help" will become inevitable for victims who do not share my commitment to non-violence. Those of us who believe in due process of law can only hope that Mr. Rabner and N.J. legal professionals, generally, will see the wisdom in dealing, honestly, with the problems in N.J. law and ethics. "No More Cover-Ups and Lies, Chief Justice Rabner!")

Dan Ivers, "Man Faces Charges for Alleged Groping," The Star Ledger, August 12, 2014, p. 13. (An airplane passenger Euen Jong Lee, 47, was taken into custody at Newark airport because, after a young woman fell asleep in the seat next to him on his flight in from Japan, Mr. Lee "groped" the woman. Mr. Lee learned the technique from Bob Menendez, perhaps.)
Stephanie Akin, "Christie Fighting Records Requests: More Than 20 Lawsuits Seeking Public Documents," The Record, August 13, 2014, p. A-1. (Mr. Christie's model of "cover-up-and-deny" when confronted with state secrecy is reflective of National Security State policies. It is likely that Christie will lose in the courts. Something to hide, Chris?)

Sharon Cohen, "In Ferguson Peace Process Elusive Goal: Tactics change seemingly by the day but fail to quell the race-tinged unrest," The Star Ledger, August 20, 2014, p. 1. (There are periodic glimpses at the divisions in America that explain so many of our troubles. About half of the nation regards the other half as sub-human with much hypocrisy and lying on the surface to conceal the reality. Much of the hostility to Mr. Obama is visibly racist. No wonder we find it difficult to "move on" after events like the Ferguson shooting.)
Susie Graziano, "Man Accused of Sex Acts With Minor," The Star Ledger, August 20, 2014, p. 16. (David C. Hardy, 33, charged with sexual contact with a minor under 16 years-old. Again, this individual, evidently, is part of a network of fellow enthusiasts in New Jersey.)

"After three years of litigation, JABBAR COLLINS, a man who spent 16 years in prison for a murder he did not commit, has reached a [total] $10 million settlement with New York."
An epidemic of expensive and damaging abuse cases continue to underline the racism and inhumanity, frequent disdain for the dignity of persons and due process of law, that too often characterize law enforcement efforts in America. ("So Black and So Blue in Prison" and "Justice For Mumia Abu-Jamal" then "Larry Peterson Cleared by DNA.")
New York is far better than most places and, under the current administration, deals with and resolves these controversies (speedily and fairly) when they come up.
New Jersey's lying and covering-up approach, on the other hand, allows criminal obstructions and denials of justice to fester and contaminate the system on a permanent basis. ("Terry Tuchin, Diana Lisa Riccioli, and New Jersey's Agency of Torture" and "New Jersey's 'Ethical' Legal System.")
"The case is notable because it exposed questionable policies under the former Brooklyn district attorney, Charles J. Hynes. Along the way, Mr. Collins' lawyer, Joel B. Rudin, deposed Mr. Hynes and his top assistants, providing a rare look at how a powerful district attorney ran his office." ("John McGill, Esq., the OAE, and New Jersey Corruption.")
A "Fort Apache" mentality can become popular and pervasive with self-styled "law enforcers" who become law breakers because they see themselves as the ONLY representatives of virtue anointed by the Lord to root-out all forms of unworthy conduct associated with "others," never themselves. The "others" are usually minority group members. ("New Jersey's Unethical Judiciary.")
This "we-are-the-good-guys" attitude can result in a view of the very citizens that police and prosecutors are meant to protect as "evil" -- unless they are cops. ("New Jersey's Office of Attorney Ethics" and "An Open Letter to My Torturers in New Jersey, Terry Tuchin and Diana Lisa Riccioli.")
New Jersey's Office of Attorney Ethics (OAE) is responsible for unethical and criminal actions that are "fine," it seems -- in their own estimation anyway -- if they result in damaging the lives of attorneys "disliked" by higher-ups, but not if they explode in the faces of those who like or make use of such tactics.
It is not a lawyer's job to be popular. It is sometimes necessary to confront the system with its failures and judges with their abuses of citizens' rights. I am not required to support someone for political office on the basis of ethnicity if that person is dishonest, or incompetent, or a front-man for unsavory elements. ("Jay Romano and Conduct Unbecoming to the Judiciary in New Jersey" and "Sexual Favors For New Jersey Judges" then "Marilyn Straus Was Right!" and "Is Menendez For Sale?" and "Diana's Friend Goes to Prison!" and "Deborah T. Poritz and Conduct Unbecoming to the Judiciary in New Jersey.")
Ms. Poritz as well as Mr. Rabner and Mr. Hynes were all "friends," perhaps they still are, along with Solomon Dwek and Bernie Madoff. ("Have you no shame, Mr. Rabner?" then "No More Cover-Ups and Lies, Chief Justice Rabner!" and "Stuart Rabner's Selective Sense of Justice.")
"Mr. Rudin accused the [Hynes] office of detaining reluctant witnesses in hotel rooms until they agreed to testify, and of advising its lawyers not to take notes when prosecution witnesses gave inconsistent statements to avoid potentially exculpatory evidence. The city's lawyers have challenged these claims." ("Prosecutorial Misconduct" and "Is America's Legal Ethics a Lie?")
Are these policies of the former chief prosecutor in Brooklyn "ethical"? ("American Lawyers in the Torture Debate.")
The OAE does not deny, as far as I can tell, threatening or bribing people to lie about me, or having my family members inform against me on penalty of being fired from their public jobs, altering or fabricating "evidence" against me, tampering with witnesses and obstructing justice, serious crimes, committed in (so far) unsuccessful efforts to frame me for something and/or to deem me "unethical." Criminal conduct by OAE lawyers seems "unethical," to me, to say nothing of frauds upon what purports to be New Jersey's Supreme Court. ("New Jersey's Feces-Covered Supreme Court" and "New Jersey's Legal System is a Whore House.")
Members of the state's failed judiciary have referred to its courts as "feces-covered" and to the legal system as a "whore house." I will be delighted to name judges and lawyers who have said such things or worse, often publicly, in the good old courthouse cafeteria. ("Christie Attacks New Jersey's Corrupt Judges" and "New Jersey's Failed Judiciary.")
New Jersey's OAE has interrogated witnesses in a drugged state and under hypnosis as well as exploiting opportunities for sex with such impaired persons: Right Estela De La Cruz? Lilian Munoz? Diana Lisa Riccioli? Mary Anne Kriko? Nydia Hernandez? ("Jennifer Velez is a Dyke Magnet!" and "Trenton's Nasty Lesbian Love-Fest.")
After participating in such unethical conduct I find it somewhat ludicrous that OAE attorneys and/or judges in New Jersey presume to comment on my ethics, or to engage in computer crime and/or censorship efforts against me -- even attempts to steal my watch! -- while stone-walling, lying, covering-up in response to persistent requests for the truth from me and others, in America and elsewhere. ("Diana's Friend Goes to Prison!" and "New Jersey Supreme Court's Implosion" and "New Jersey's Judges Disgrace America.")
" ... Mr. Collins also found that a prosecutor did not turn over exculpatory evidence."
This is routine behavior from prosecutors and OAE lawyers today:
"The wrongful conviction settlement is one of several the city has reached this year, including a $6.4 MILLION settlement for David Ranta, a man who spent nearly 23 years in prison for a murder he did not commit."
Mr. Hynes is currently under investigation for misappropriation of funds; OAE matters are also under federal investigation, allegedly and finally. None of these persons will go to prison, however, unless they are African-Americans or Latinos:
"Mr. Collins settled with the state under the Unjust Conviction Act for [in part] $3 million [in immediate payment]." ("So Black and So Blue in Prison.")
Perhaps Stuart Rabner has my Invicta watch? ("The Invicta Watch Company" and "The Invicta Watch Company Caper.")
I do not expect a response of any kind from government officials at this time.

The Guns of August.
A list of sources will be added to this text if I am able to continue writing. I cannot confirm that my watch has been sent by Invicta to the Gaza strip in Israel.
I have just received the return receipt for the most recent package sent to Invicta signed (if undated) by "Adriana Ponce." The latest return receipt for the items sent to Letitia James has yet to be received by me.
I wonder whether Carl Rove has read any of my writings or visited my sites? If so, when and/or at whose request has Mr. Rove done either or both of these things?
I noticed Mr. Rove strolling near me at Penn Station not long ago. I wonder whether Mr. Rove has worked for Marco Rubio and/or Iliana Ros-Leghtinen? Bob Menendez?

Jodi Rudoren & Isabel Kershner, "Gaza Rockets and Israeli Response Break the Quiet," The New York Times, August 20, 2014, p. A11.
"JERUSALEM -- As the latest short-term cease-fire between Israel and Palestinian militants [children are "militants"?] in the Gaza strip collapsed Tuesday, rockets from Gaza reached Tel Aviv and Jerusalem[,] and Israel resumed airstrikes in Gaza. But the most telling move came in Cairo, where Israel yanked its team from talks aimed at a more durable truce."
There were few expectations that a meaningful result, or lasting peace, would emerge from the Cairo talks.
Israeli and Palestinian negotiators have announced "bottom-line" demands that have been rejected by their opposite numbers before discussions began in Egypt. This is a strange attitude to take to the concept of negotiation.
The U.S. is not hosting -- or even participating -- in these talks because America is seen as "biased" (by the Palestinians) and "insufficiently loyal" when it comes to Mr. Obama's administration (by Israel).
The inconsistency in these views seems not to have occurred to anyone. It is difficult for the U.S. to favor, illicitly, both sides in negotiations.
Israel does not wish to "reward" Hamas for bombing attacks that have killed 64 Israeli soldiers and wounded many others. As I type these words it is reported that children have been killed in Israel by Hamas attacks. The continued killing of innocents is regarded as the only alternative to "rewarding" Hamas with a peace that ends the current hostilities, even if the "siege" of Gaza is not lifted by Israel.
As a result, more innocent persons along with the guilty will be killed, more homes will be destroyed (it will take nearly twenty years under current constraints to rebuild the lost housing in Gaza), and further devastation of lives must be expected. As many as 350,000 persons are expected to be homeless in Gaza when the military hostilities end, if they ever do. Displacement alone will constitute a humanitarian crisis.
This is the human suffering that the global community -- including America -- finds appalling, regardless of the merits in the respective negotiating positions of the parties to the underlying dispute.
Global outrage is not about who is right or wrong, but about ending the killing and suffering of INNOCENT persons.
For Palestinians the suffocating conditions of an occupation that starves and stifles the hopes of a very young population must be ended. All decent people agree on this much.
Hamas is under great pressure to deliver "something" more "substantial" after so much suffering. Israeli severity is designed, allegedly, to produce a permanently enslaved Palestinian population that is utterly pacified (drugs are among the few things that are plentiful in Gaza).
Risking one's death seems not all that terrible to people who have lost loved-ones, entire families in some cases, and everything they own.
The actual goals of the Israeli government for the short term are a matter for speculation: 1). Netanyahu is said to "wish to be feared" by Palestinians, obviously, but also by his Israeli political opposition which will see him, after this Gaza operation, as unbeatable in future elections because he is a self-proclaimed "strong man" who will keep Israel safe no matter the cost and regardless of world opinion; 2). by using his "friends" in the U.S. media, Netanyahu wishes to intimidate the few American politicians who are not on the payroll of the Israeli lobby in order to make it clear to the Islamic world, especially, that even the U.S. cannot control Israel. 3). Finally, there is the ongoing push to get Palestinians out of the area entirely, possibly to steal their land: "Let them go to Jordan," Mr. Netanyahu has said on more than one occasion.
"Israel's walking away from the talks leaves Hamas -- and the broader Palestinian leadership that has been negotiating in Cairo -- with little to show for its war effort. Gaza is devastated: about 2,000 residents were killed; [10,000 wounded persons, many severely wounded very young individuals;] and perhaps 100,000 rendered homeless as neighborhoods were reduced to rubble." ("The Audacity of Hope" and "Israel Heightens Gaza Crisis.")
Sanitary conditions already pose a danger of widespread diseases further threatening local children; access to drinking water and medical care as well as food are more of a problem than ever; and there are few prospects for the material improvement of people's lives. Is this ethical?
Perhaps the refusal to lift the siege by Israel is intended to instill a sense of hopelessness among young people from among whom Hamas recruits fighters.
Apathy among young persons who have witnessed the horrors and deaths of the past month is unlikely. There will be no shortage of suicide bombers now, some of them may be coming to America.
Under circumstances that can only be called "oppressive" (UN), Palestinians will either be destroyed or they will become harder than steel in their commitment to the struggle for social justice and self-determination, dignity, equality, and human rights.
Even UN locations provide no safety. A number of UN officials have also been killed. To my knowledge, Israel has not apologized for the deaths of UN personnel who are deemed "collateral damage."
A similar struggle is taking place in Missouri (and elsewhere in America) for recognition of human rights and dignity, most of all for the truth from officials who are fooling no one by including a few token dark faces among their ranks in uniform making doubtful decisions about curfews and security applicable, exclusively, to African-American neighborhoods.
"No justice, no peace!" -- has become a universal slogan for oppressed people in the world. The one thing on which anyone who surveys global politics today can agree is that world peace is not likely in our time.

Jodi Rudoren & Isabel Kershner, "Gaza Rockets and Israeli Response Break the Quiet," The New York Times, August 20, 2014, p. A11.
"JERUSALEM -- As the latest short-term cease-fire between Israel and Palestinian militants [children are "militants"?] in the Gaza strip collapsed Tuesday, rockets from Gaza reached Tel Aviv and Jerusalem[,] and Israel resumed airstrikes in Gaza. But the most telling move came in Cairo, where Israel yanked its team from talks aimed at a more durable truce."
There were few expectations that a meaningful result, or lasting peace, would emerge from the Cairo talks.
Israeli and Palestinian negotiators have announced "bottom-line" demands that have been rejected by their opposite numbers before discussions began in Egypt. This is a strange attitude to take to the concept of negotiation.
The U.S. is not hosting -- or even participating -- in these talks because America is seen as "biased" (by the Palestinians) and "insufficiently loyal" when it comes to Mr. Obama's administration (by Israel).
The inconsistency in these views seems not to have occurred to anyone. It is difficult for the U.S. to favor, illicitly, both sides in negotiations.
Israel does not wish to "reward" Hamas for bombing attacks that have killed 64 Israeli soldiers and wounded many others. As I type these words it is reported that children have been killed in Israel by Hamas attacks. The continued killing of innocents is regarded as the only alternative to "rewarding" Hamas with a peace that ends the current hostilities, even if the "siege" of Gaza is not lifted by Israel.
As a result, more innocent persons along with the guilty will be killed, more homes will be destroyed (it will take nearly twenty years under current constraints to rebuild the lost housing in Gaza), and further devastation of lives must be expected. As many as 350,000 persons are expected to be homeless in Gaza when the military hostilities end, if they ever do. Displacement alone will constitute a humanitarian crisis.
This is the human suffering that the global community -- including America -- finds appalling, regardless of the merits in the respective negotiating positions of the parties to the underlying dispute.
Global outrage is not about who is right or wrong, but about ending the killing and suffering of INNOCENT persons.
For Palestinians the suffocating conditions of an occupation that starves and stifles the hopes of a very young population must be ended. All decent people agree on this much.
Hamas is under great pressure to deliver "something" more "substantial" after so much suffering. Israeli severity is designed, allegedly, to produce a permanently enslaved Palestinian population that is utterly pacified (drugs are among the few things that are plentiful in Gaza).
Risking one's death seems not all that terrible to people who have lost loved-ones, entire families in some cases, and everything they own.
The actual goals of the Israeli government for the short term are a matter for speculation: 1). Netanyahu is said to "wish to be feared" by Palestinians, obviously, but also by his Israeli political opposition which will see him, after this Gaza operation, as unbeatable in future elections because he is a self-proclaimed "strong man" who will keep Israel safe no matter the cost and regardless of world opinion; 2). by using his "friends" in the U.S. media, Netanyahu wishes to intimidate the few American politicians who are not on the payroll of the Israeli lobby in order to make it clear to the Islamic world, especially, that even the U.S. cannot control Israel. 3). Finally, there is the ongoing push to get Palestinians out of the area entirely, possibly to steal their land: "Let them go to Jordan," Mr. Netanyahu has said on more than one occasion.
"Israel's walking away from the talks leaves Hamas -- and the broader Palestinian leadership that has been negotiating in Cairo -- with little to show for its war effort. Gaza is devastated: about 2,000 residents were killed; [10,000 wounded persons, many severely wounded very young individuals;] and perhaps 100,000 rendered homeless as neighborhoods were reduced to rubble." ("The Audacity of Hope" and "Israel Heightens Gaza Crisis.")
Sanitary conditions already pose a danger of widespread diseases further threatening local children; access to drinking water and medical care as well as food are more of a problem than ever; and there are few prospects for the material improvement of people's lives. Is this ethical?
Perhaps the refusal to lift the siege by Israel is intended to instill a sense of hopelessness among young people from among whom Hamas recruits fighters.
Apathy among young persons who have witnessed the horrors and deaths of the past month is unlikely. There will be no shortage of suicide bombers now, some of them may be coming to America.
Under circumstances that can only be called "oppressive" (UN), Palestinians will either be destroyed or they will become harder than steel in their commitment to the struggle for social justice and self-determination, dignity, equality, and human rights.
Even UN locations provide no safety. A number of UN officials have also been killed. To my knowledge, Israel has not apologized for the deaths of UN personnel who are deemed "collateral damage."
A similar struggle is taking place in Missouri (and elsewhere in America) for recognition of human rights and dignity, most of all for the truth from officials who are fooling no one by including a few token dark faces among their ranks in uniform making doubtful decisions about curfews and security applicable, exclusively, to African-American neighborhoods.
"No justice, no peace!" -- has become a universal slogan for oppressed people in the world. The one thing on which anyone who surveys global politics today can agree is that world peace is not likely in our time.

Obama and Clinton in couples' therapy.
"VINEYARD HAVEN, Mass. -- Hillary Rodham Clinton blew into this tiny island town like a fast moving hurricane on Wednesday, creating a commotion at the Bunch of Grapes bookstore, where hundreds of admirers waited for hours in the rain for a glimmer [glimpse?] of the woman who they hope will be the next president." (Times, 8-14-2014, p. A1.)
Former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton's calculated criticisms of President Obama's foreign policy is a bold (if dangerous) political move for the Democrats' potential presidential candidate in 2016.
Mr. Obama is at 40% in popularity polls, partly as a result of years of mostly unfair criticisms and gridlock, due to Republican opponents and disloyal "friends" within his own party.
(As of May, 2015 Mr. Obama is at 55% and now all Democrats love him again.)
It is (politically) "unwise" to be too closely associated with the president if you're a Democrat -- unless you are African-American. For African-American politicians, including Republicans (yes, there are some), it is suicidal to be overly critical of the Chief Executive as well as "race betrayal," according to some pundits.
America's absurd racial odyssey is still underway.
The attacks on Mr. Obama's competence on foreign policy issues echo Mitt Romney's comment: "He [referring to Mr. OBama] is a nice guy, but he is in over his head."
The Republican presidential hopeful, obviously, was in over his head in uttering this Carl Rove-like smear and thinly-velied or coded-racist comment.
Mrs. Clinton's remarks -- I say this as a long-time supporter who has, proudly, voted for the "gracious lady" from New York several times -- conjures regrettable associations with Bill Clinton's attacks against "Sister Soljah" (I believe) and, worse, the Ricky-Ray Rector execution, to say nothing of reviving the tensions in the 2008 primary battle that featured notorious Hillary Clinton advertisements in the Times stating: "We are America's women" excluding women who supported Mr. Obama and, seemingly, all minority women. ("A Commencement Address by Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton" and "For America to Lead Again: An Inaugural Address by Barack Hussein Obama, President of the United States of America.")
Romney and Clinton favored the catastrophic and now dismally failed invasion of Iraq.
Obama opposed that invasion long before becoming president and is now struggling to clean-up Bush/Cheney disasters throughout the world.
I believe that, in that effort to clean-up the mess left to President Obama no one could have done a better job in very difficult circumstances than the officials who have served the president at the State Department, i.e., Clinton and Kerry.
"Expediency" in terms of personal political advantage now seems to be the alleged "organizing principle" of Mrs. Clinton's foreign policy position; Mr. Obama has opted for caution and pragmatism over abstract principle.
Obama's pragmatism appears to be a kind of "muddling through" crises, but it may be the best course of action in uncertain times and in complex "places." Walking a fine line between Saudi sunnis" and Iranian "shiites" is brilliant even if this tactic opens the president to criticisms.
Hillary Clinton's interim election criticisms may play into Republican efforts to divide Democrats before the next election.
Bill Clinton's move to the center of the political spectrum and away from minorities "worked" in getting him elected to his first term, even as it created a lingering distrust of the Clintons -- among Democrats! -- as "doubful allies" (John Kerry) in a political fight whose primary objective, allegedly, will always be their personal interest even at the expense of any and all friends. This is not my view, but I have heard it expressed by many who support "other" progressive candidates.
If Mr. Obama's foreign policy lacks an "organizing principle" -- as Mrs. Clinton charges -- then she may well bear partial responsibility for this state of affairs as one "architect" (her word) of the Obama foreign policy during Obama's first term and beyond, including (no irony intended) sparkling moments, like the Benghazi, incident where a bad situation was prevented from becoming a regional or even global catastrophe.
Most of America's "educated class" (The Wall Street Journal's term for a different group than those I mean to identify) regards Republicans as embarrassing throw-backs to the neolithic era, shockingly ignorant and stupid, seeking military solutions to every problem, likely to create more catastrophes for the nation if they regain the presidency.
People would like some reason to hope that Democrats are better or more intelligent and cautious than Republicans about committing American troops to war anywhere.
At the moment, apparently, Republicans wish to go to war against African-Americans in Missouri, and elsewhere. Some things never change. Baltimore?
"Going to War" appears to be the only organizing principle of Republican foreign (or domestic) policy.
We must do a little better than this way of thinking in the 21st century. There will never be enough wars for Republicans and their friends, who are often military contractors, as well as Third World dictators. ("The Audacity of Hope" and "Israel Heightens Gaza Crisis.")
"Let's get tough on the little brown people!" is not a popular message with everyone in the aftermath of the Gaza crisis and Iraq's implosion. It should be noted that a majority of the world's human population is brown or darker.
Mrs. Clinton has been notably silent on the events in Missouri that reveal the limits on the use of violence in dealing with legitimate aspirations for social justice by an oppressed people.
"Mr. Obama is fast becoming the past, not the future, for donors, activists and Democratic strategists. Party leaders are increasingly turning toward Mrs. Clinton and her husband, former president Bill Clinton, as Democrats face difficult races this fall [sic.] in states where the president [which one?] is especially unpopular, and her [?] aides are making plain that she has no intention of 'running for Obama's third term.' ..."
Mrs. Clinton may have to defend an Obama policy she now dislikes in order to win her first term. To do otherwise may reinforce highly negative characterizations of the former Secretary of State and "her husband."
No one can win the presidency (or govern the nation) without the minority vote in today's America, especially when it comes to Democrats. The options at the moment in terms of "wedge politics" may be different from what they were in the nineties.
Rand Paul and Ted Cruz have a weird relationship.
Mr. Paul ("good cop") and Mr. Cruz ("bad cop") are perceived as a bizarre Hope/Crosby team for the GOP as they tour the country aiming to persuade the minority community to vote for Republicans, without abandoning the "good-old-boys" eager to kill brown people on Saturday nights who constitute the core of their party.
Not surprisingly, Mr. Paul hails from Kentucky where the television show "Justified" is filmed. Mr. Rubio is still only the "water carrier" for these two leading lights of the "Grand Old Party."
Does Boyd Crowther support Mr. Paul? Ava Crowther? Railand Gibbons? ("'Justified': A Review of the FX Television Series.")
Can the GOP toss red meat to their faithful troops while, simultaneously, reaching out to educated women and all black and brown people? The issue remains unresolved.
I like Rand Paul and find him an interesting and thoughtful politician, despite his unfortunate Republican affiliations. If I were religious, I would pray for Mr. Paul to see the light and join the Democrats. Perhaps Rand Paul can be saved.
Ted Cruz may be beyond redemption and has yet to enter the twenty-first century. About the other Republicans the less said the better for them.
Christie's and Menendez's "gay marriage" of political convenience.
In New Jersey there has always been honor among thieves in politics regardless of party affiliation.
At the moment, the state's governor and senior senator are avoiding mutual criticisms despite their intense and shared dislike for one another.
Mr. Christie's so-called "whitewash" report from Randy Mastro, Esq. is now costing N.J. taxpayers almost $7 MILLION; Mr. Menendez's friend and possible pimp, Dr. Salomon Melgen, is billing about $8.1 MILLION to Medicaid for allegedly "fraudulent surgeries" with the assistance of New Jersey's Latino Senator Bob Menendez. (Yes, Dr. Melgen spells his name "Salomon.")
Menendez is continuing his efforts to target me for harassment and worse, evidently, but is silent on new ethics charges and FBI investigations against himself and his slimy friends. ("Invicta Watch Company" and "The Invicta Watch Company Caper.")
Mr. Christie is stuck in a traffic jam, as it were, at the GW bridge.
More New Jersey corruption scandals and further judicial disgrace in Trenton will be the subject of future essays. Another massive child sex scandal is exploding in the Garden State as I face more censorship and obstructions to writing essays.

"Expediency" in terms of personal political advantage now seems to be the alleged "organizing principle" of Mrs. Clinton's foreign policy position; Mr. Obama has opted for caution and pragmatism over abstract principle.
Obama's pragmatism appears to be a kind of "muddling through" crises, but it may be the best course of action in uncertain times and in complex "places." Walking a fine line between Saudi sunnis" and Iranian "shiites" is brilliant even if this tactic opens the president to criticisms.
Hillary Clinton's interim election criticisms may play into Republican efforts to divide Democrats before the next election.
Bill Clinton's move to the center of the political spectrum and away from minorities "worked" in getting him elected to his first term, even as it created a lingering distrust of the Clintons -- among Democrats! -- as "doubful allies" (John Kerry) in a political fight whose primary objective, allegedly, will always be their personal interest even at the expense of any and all friends. This is not my view, but I have heard it expressed by many who support "other" progressive candidates.
If Mr. Obama's foreign policy lacks an "organizing principle" -- as Mrs. Clinton charges -- then she may well bear partial responsibility for this state of affairs as one "architect" (her word) of the Obama foreign policy during Obama's first term and beyond, including (no irony intended) sparkling moments, like the Benghazi, incident where a bad situation was prevented from becoming a regional or even global catastrophe.
Most of America's "educated class" (The Wall Street Journal's term for a different group than those I mean to identify) regards Republicans as embarrassing throw-backs to the neolithic era, shockingly ignorant and stupid, seeking military solutions to every problem, likely to create more catastrophes for the nation if they regain the presidency.
People would like some reason to hope that Democrats are better or more intelligent and cautious than Republicans about committing American troops to war anywhere.
At the moment, apparently, Republicans wish to go to war against African-Americans in Missouri, and elsewhere. Some things never change. Baltimore?
"Going to War" appears to be the only organizing principle of Republican foreign (or domestic) policy.
We must do a little better than this way of thinking in the 21st century. There will never be enough wars for Republicans and their friends, who are often military contractors, as well as Third World dictators. ("The Audacity of Hope" and "Israel Heightens Gaza Crisis.")
"Let's get tough on the little brown people!" is not a popular message with everyone in the aftermath of the Gaza crisis and Iraq's implosion. It should be noted that a majority of the world's human population is brown or darker.
Mrs. Clinton has been notably silent on the events in Missouri that reveal the limits on the use of violence in dealing with legitimate aspirations for social justice by an oppressed people.
"Mr. Obama is fast becoming the past, not the future, for donors, activists and Democratic strategists. Party leaders are increasingly turning toward Mrs. Clinton and her husband, former president Bill Clinton, as Democrats face difficult races this fall [sic.] in states where the president [which one?] is especially unpopular, and her [?] aides are making plain that she has no intention of 'running for Obama's third term.' ..."
Mrs. Clinton may have to defend an Obama policy she now dislikes in order to win her first term. To do otherwise may reinforce highly negative characterizations of the former Secretary of State and "her husband."
No one can win the presidency (or govern the nation) without the minority vote in today's America, especially when it comes to Democrats. The options at the moment in terms of "wedge politics" may be different from what they were in the nineties.
Rand Paul and Ted Cruz have a weird relationship.
Mr. Paul ("good cop") and Mr. Cruz ("bad cop") are perceived as a bizarre Hope/Crosby team for the GOP as they tour the country aiming to persuade the minority community to vote for Republicans, without abandoning the "good-old-boys" eager to kill brown people on Saturday nights who constitute the core of their party.
Not surprisingly, Mr. Paul hails from Kentucky where the television show "Justified" is filmed. Mr. Rubio is still only the "water carrier" for these two leading lights of the "Grand Old Party."
Does Boyd Crowther support Mr. Paul? Ava Crowther? Railand Gibbons? ("'Justified': A Review of the FX Television Series.")
Can the GOP toss red meat to their faithful troops while, simultaneously, reaching out to educated women and all black and brown people? The issue remains unresolved.
I like Rand Paul and find him an interesting and thoughtful politician, despite his unfortunate Republican affiliations. If I were religious, I would pray for Mr. Paul to see the light and join the Democrats. Perhaps Rand Paul can be saved.
Ted Cruz may be beyond redemption and has yet to enter the twenty-first century. About the other Republicans the less said the better for them.
Christie's and Menendez's "gay marriage" of political convenience.
In New Jersey there has always been honor among thieves in politics regardless of party affiliation.
At the moment, the state's governor and senior senator are avoiding mutual criticisms despite their intense and shared dislike for one another.
Mr. Christie's so-called "whitewash" report from Randy Mastro, Esq. is now costing N.J. taxpayers almost $7 MILLION; Mr. Menendez's friend and possible pimp, Dr. Salomon Melgen, is billing about $8.1 MILLION to Medicaid for allegedly "fraudulent surgeries" with the assistance of New Jersey's Latino Senator Bob Menendez. (Yes, Dr. Melgen spells his name "Salomon.")
Menendez is continuing his efforts to target me for harassment and worse, evidently, but is silent on new ethics charges and FBI investigations against himself and his slimy friends. ("Invicta Watch Company" and "The Invicta Watch Company Caper.")
Mr. Christie is stuck in a traffic jam, as it were, at the GW bridge.
More New Jersey corruption scandals and further judicial disgrace in Trenton will be the subject of future essays. Another massive child sex scandal is exploding in the Garden State as I face more censorship and obstructions to writing essays.
Shame on you New Jersey.

These charming people have expressed an interest in law school.)
"General Motors was unable to persuade a judge in Georgia to dismiss a case that helped set in motion the company's worldwide recall of 2.6 million cars with a deadly ignition defect and that touched off the worst safety crisis in the automakers' history."
Normally, when a civil lawsuit is "settled" prior to trial by means of the acceptance of a monetary offer the case is closed and cannot be reopened.
Exceptions to this general principle of law include some provisions of workers' compensation laws as well as some features of bankruptcy laws, among others.
Fraud always allows for reopening a decision or settlement. ("The Allegory of the Cave.")
GM responded to lawsuits filed by persons injured (or killed) because of ignition troubles resulting from a defective switch by DENYING, LYING ABOUT, and COVERING-UP a systemic failure or design defect, as it is known in products liability law, that would have created liability for the company in the millions of dollars in addition to wrongful death and other negligence actions available to car users also against the motor vehicle manufacturer. ("A Doll's Aria.")
In other words, lots of lawsuits would be filed if people understood that GM not only made a mistake in building a car, but erred in the design of an entire line of vehicles that were expected to malfunction in ways that were bound to produce injuries and deaths, for unsuspecting drivers and passengers, then lied and covered-up their error. ("Is America's Legal Ethics a Lie?")
Essentially, as a result of a dismally failed legal strategy that could only have come from GM's top lawyers -- especially, Michael P. Milliken, Esq., GM's general counsel -- the company created a "wall of silence," lied continuously, covered-up the facts through "creative" responses to discovery requests, tried to "get rid of" individual lawsuits without acknowledging the general defect or admitting the error at all, even as they supplied a redesigned replacement part without explanation.
20 persons (at least) have died; hundreds have been seriously injured; many families have been devastated by this course of conduct, which continues to be followed by attorneys for GM and insurance companies facilitating settlements -- ostensibly in "good faith" -- with persons unaware of the extent of the automobile company's culpability, or the danger they may still be in as consumers. Happy motoring, America.
GM's conduct or malfeasance ("bad faith") elevates this defendant's fault (or legal liability) to the level of intentional tort or deliberate infliction of injury. ("Weapons of Mass Deception.")
Elevation in the degree of fault would allow for the imposition, usually by juries, of punitive damages (in addition to merely compensatory damages) that are designed to "discourage" this sort of conduct in the future. There are no limits to how much a jury can award in punitive damages.
You get more money in a law suit if you can show that the defendant hurt you on purpose.
This extra liability may be fortunate since criminal responsibility is not exactly unforeseeable for attorneys engaging in this conspiracy that has resulted, again, in the deaths of innocent persons. ("John McGill, Esq., the OAE, and New Jersey Corruption" and "New Jersey's 'Ethical' Legal System.")
It is obvious, also, that this situation gives rise to professional ethics issues for establishment lawyers who, probably, will be insulated from such harms, or may even be sort of persons who control the legal ethics system. That sounds familiar to me. ("New Jersey's Office of Attorney Ethics" and "Have you no shame, Mr. Rabner?")
You can see why they don't like me in New Jersey. ("Does Senator Menendez have mafia friends?" and "Is Menendez For Sale?")
After settling a wrongful death suit brought by the parents of Brooke Melton, a 29-year-old woman killed in 2010 when her Chevrolet Cobalt's ignition switch failed, the family learned that GM did not report the defect (lying through silence) in litigation. ("Marilyn Straus Was Right!")
How's your Chevy doing?
Criminal fraud -- as in New Jersey's OAE proceedings against me -- allow for reopening litigation and may result not only in additional damage, but also in criminal charges for attorneys and other GM employees as well as the good folks in Trenton. ("Stuart Rabner's Selective Sense of Justice" and "Stuart Rabner and Conduct Unbecoming to the Judiciary in New Jersey.")
"The judge ordered GM to begin producing documents for the Melton's lawyer by September 26, [sic.] Lance Cooper, a lawyer representing the family, said in a phone interview. [Mr. Cooper] said he planned to review those documents and then come up with a schedule for deposing witnesses."
I suspect that the trail of breadcrumbs will lead not to grandma's cottage but to the wolf's door, in the form of GM's legal department. ("Corrupt Law Firms, Senator Bob, and New Jersey Ethics" then "New Jersey's Politically-Connected Lawyers On the Tit" and "New Jersey is the Home of the Living Dead" then "New Jersey Lawyers' Ethics Farce.")
GM's Michael Milliken, Esq. claims that he "does not have any specific recollection of the developments at issue in this litigation" and must "refresh" his faulty memory. Mr. Milliken explained that he does not speak English very well:
"Mr. Cooper said it was likely that he would want to depose Michael P. Milliken, ... along with other GM employees [LAWYERS soon to be employed by New Jersey's OAE?] and staff at [the] suppliers of the ignition switch."
The Justice Department and FBI are looking into this matter as well as investigating my situation, at last.
No ethics action has been filed at this time, since Mr. Milliken is reportedly a member of his state's legal ethics committee and numerous bar association "committees." Mr. Milliken was heading for a judgeship which, sadly, could now be delayed for him.
What a loss to American jurisprudence is the absence of "Judge" Milliken. ("New Jersey's Judges Disgrace America" and "New Jersey's Failed Judiciary.")
What the hell, Michael. Forget about it. We all have to move on.

Another N.J. Global Child Porn Network.
A romantic correspondence?
I am in receipt of what purports to be an email from "Michelle Castro" of Invicta Watch Company dated: Fri., August 8, 2014 at 9:07 A.M. Allegedly, this message is in response to an email from "Fernando Fernandez" of the NYC Public Advocate's Office inquiring about the repairs to my watch. ("Invicta Watch Company" and "The Invicta Watch Company Caper.")
"Michelle Castro" and "Fernando Fernandez" are probably the same Cuban-American woman, no doubt this person is affiliated with Senator Menendez -- also providing yet another handwritten note -- ostensibly from the NY Public Advocate, on a stick-on blue paper.
The text of the email message from "Michelle Castro" reads as follows:
"Our records show your watch was sent [to whom? where? when?] unrepaired. I contacted UPS [sic.] and arranged for them [sic.] to return it back to us. [sic.] I will have it sent overseas to be repaired and make sure there is no pending charges. [sic.]"
Invicta does not send their own watches overseas to be repaired by others; Invicta does not, usually, use UPS as opposed to the U.S. Post Office for shipping services; and if something is "returned" to you it would almost certainly also be "sent back" to you.
The postage meter used to stamp this envelope is dated August 8, 2014 and the letter was probably placed in my mail box (by hand) on the same date.
The number "7" in the hand-written note by "Mr. Fernandez" is written -- as Cuban and European schoolchildren are taught to write the number -- with a crossed-stem.
Curiously, Fernando Fernandez and Michelle Castro use the same Google email account and appear to have the same handwriting.
On the bright side, it appears that my payments have been acknowledged (by whoever wrote these texts) and that my watch is being repaired, presumably by Invicta in Florida, and will be sent back to me, eventually. I hope.
Copies of this latest communication will be sent by certified mail with return receipt requested to Ms. Letitia James and Invicta Watch Company. It is a serious crime to use the U.S. mail in furtherance of a criminal fraud or other conspiracy. ("New Jersey's 'Ethical' Legal System" and "John McGill, Esq., the OAE, and New Jersey Corruption.")
August 4, 2014 at 1:42 P.M. I will be adding a list of sources to this essay. No response has yet been received from "Fernando Fernandez" and/or "Michelle Castro" and/or "Cecilia Luce" and/or "Sheldon" and/or "Jill Ketchum" and/or "R. Schnezler" et als.

Among the 14 arrested N.J. men -- and, apparently, one lesbian woman also arrested -- there were several school bus drivers and a "devoted" church minister seeking qualifications as a youth minister or counselor, all of whom had pictures of a sexually explicit nature depicting children on their computers.
The defendants were accustomed to lurking on the Internet prowling for vulnerable children.
I wonder how many of these "low-life vermin" (to use the police term for these persons) used the name "Malbus" online? ("An Open Letter to My Torturers in New Jersey, Terry Tuchin and Diana Lisa Riccioli.")
It certainly would be a shock to discover connections between these individuals and prominent New Jersey politicians, such as Bob Menendez, and the shadowy persons targeting my blogs and me for harassment online. ("New Jersey's Nasty Lesbian Love-Fest!" and "New Jersey Female Professor Rapes a Disabled Man" then "New Jersey is the Home of Child Molesters" and "New Jersey Welcomes Child Molesters" and "Menendez Consorts With Underage Prostitutes.")
"Two school bus drivers, an aspiring youth minister, [and counselor!] and a software engineer who has top security clearance at an aerospace firm were among 14 New Jersey men charged in a six month child pornography sweep, [sic.] state authorities said."
One of the persons arrested may be among the listed contributors to Bob Menendez's reelection campaign for the United States Senate:
" ... ARMANDO NORTEZ, 28, of Egg Harbor Township, a school bus driver ... [is among the accused.]" (emphasis added!)
Mr. Nortez is one of several defendants with current access to your children, perhaps, who is seeking greater access to all of New Jersey's children. This same person may be using other names to engage in illegal activity.
The desperate effort to find ways to be "near" children is not unusual among child predators, nor is "affiliation" with law enforcement and judiciary members sharing their "proclivities" in New Jersey, America's so-called child porn capitol. ("Is Menendez For Sale?" and "Bribery in Union City, New Jersey" then "Union City, New Jersey is Meyer Lansky's Whore House.")

("Is Menendez For Sale?" and "Bribery in Union City, New Jersey" then "Union City, New Jersey is Meyer Lansky's Whore House.")
"The men who were arrested starting in February" -- in an ONGOING investigation -- "were charged with possession of child pornography, [A.G.] Hoffman said. Ten of them were also charged with distribution for allegedly using an online file-sharing network to make the material available to others." ("Law Firm Employee Distributes Child Porn" and "New Jersey Superior Court Judge is a Child Molester" and "Neil M. Cohen, Esq. and Conduct Unbecoming to the Legislature in New Jersey.")
Allegations that Estela De La Cruz, Esq. was among the lesbian members of this group cannot be confirmed. I am sure that Ms. De La Cruz will deny all such "allegations" and any sexual "relationship" -- or contact -- with Marilyn Straus and Diana Lisa Riccioli to say nothing of many other young female admirers, and law clerks or law students perhaps. (Again: "Diana's Friend Goes to Prison" and "Marilyn Straus Was Right!")
I am sure that, as a Superior Court Judge in New Jersey, Ms. De La Cruz will deny participating in unethical and criminal efforts to target me from behind my back, for a small fee perhaps, when I was an attorney in New Jersey. Favors for Bob Menendez, Estela? Or was it John McGill, Esq.? ("New Jersey's 'Ethical' Legal System" then "New Jersey's Office of Attorney Ethics" and "John McGill, Esq., the OAE, and New Jersey Corruption.")
A number of persons have been charged already (more will likely face charges) with manufacturing child pornography, which carries recently enhanced federal and state penalties allowing for a minimum 10 to 20 year sentence in prison, provided that (as also seems likely) convicted defendants happen to be repeat offenders.
The extent of the material being produced, international circulation of images requiring federal and state law enforcement cooperation, suggests that these defendants were no amateurs:
"In another [related] case, investigators found child pornography and Internet activity indicating an interest in the sexual exploitation of boys [5-to-7 years-old] on the computer of Michael Parker, 55, ... an active member of the First Presbyterian Church of Merchantville." ("New Jersey Rabbi Faces Child Abuse Charges" and "Have you no shame, Mr. Rabner?" then "Edward M. De Sear, Esq. and New Jersey's Filth.")
Jorge Prado? I am sure that Diana Lisa Riccioli would have no comment on these matters. ("Sexual Favors For New Jersey Judges" and "Deborah T. Poritz and Conduct Unbecoming to the Judiciary in New Jersey" and "Sybil R. Moses and Conduct Unbecoming to the Judiciary in New Jersey.")
"ARLANDA JOHNSON, 46, of Pemberton Township, a software engineer with an aerospace firm who has a top security clearance, was arrested April 26, ... "
None of the women, whose colorful sexual histories have made them experts on such matters, allegedly -- but who seem to enjoy a great deal of protection in New Jersey -- has commented on these matters, or on allegations made against them by me and others: Estela De La Cruz, Lilian Munoz, Nydia Hernandez, Diana Lisa Riccioli, Mary Anne Kriko. Bashful, ladies? ("Jennifer Velez is a Dyke Magnet!" and "New Jersey's Child Sex Crisis" and "New Jersey is America's Child Porn Capitol.")
