HAPPY NEW YEAR

I want to take a moment to wish everyone a HAPPY NEW YEAR.    

The world has changed for the worse - maybe we can be smart enough to change it back.   The First Step is to end the endless cover-ups and lying.    The Elder Cleansing conspiracy starring Jerome Larkin and his miscreant band of 18 USCA 371, 18 USCA 242 co-conspirators should be first on the agenda.    There current prosecution of JoAnne Denison for disclosing judicial corruption in her blog is untenable and about as unAmerican as one can get.    It pales Larkin's institutional racism and pretended ignorance of the State and Federal constitution.   (NB.  Even a person of larkin's reputation cannot claim to not be aware of the Rule of Law as set forth by SCOTUS.   His perversion and outright untruths as to the SCOTUS's ruling in the Alvarez case has to a put-on.)

The Wall Street Journal had an article U.S. Spy Net on Israel Snares Congress

 that suggests perfidy at the highest levels of government.   The idea that our government did not want our Congress to know the terms of the Iran agreement is right out of the Larkin book!  We have to start somewhere to redeem America --  I hope that the new year will start by doing more than indicting Bill Cosby for sexual assaults.    An indictment of Jerome Larkin and a bunch of his pals for Constitutional assault and the civil collection of the taxes, interest, and penalties that he and his co-conspirators owe would be helpful!

Indeed - maybe by collection of the taxes due from the political and judicial elite for their roles in elder cleansing the People of the State of Illinois can avoid further tax increases.  Why do we need tax increases when we allow the miscreants in government to not pay the very taxes that government wants from us peons!

Florida Cops Caught Pre-Planning and Celebrating Gruesome K-9 Attack Against Unarmed Teen

37% of North Port’s K-9 apprehensions end with a bite.

On July 16th, 2012, Justin Lemay’s mother called the North Port Police Department to alert them that her son may be suicidal. “My daughter found a noose hanging in the garage,” she said. “I’m afraid he might try to hurt himself.” But before Lemay could even talk to police, K-9 unit officers viciously attacked him with their service animal.

Before even arriving on the scene of what was a suicidal, unarmed teen, officer Keith Bush texted Michael Dietz, new to the unit, prior to reaching Lemay’s home. Bush texted, “COME GET UR BITE.” Bush was recorded minutes later messaging Dietz, “IM GONNA TAKE UR BITE IF U DONT HURRY UP.”

Officers Dietz and Bush entered the home, and found Justin Lemay hiding inside a trash can. Lemay recounted what happened next:

I remember hitting the ground on my hands to brace myself from falling, and I looked up at them, and I went to say ‘OK, OK,’ and the guy sicced the dog on me as soon as I started to talk. I remember [the dog’s] mouth coming toward me and latching onto my face. He literally drug me out of the trash can.

Fellow officer Officer William Carter texted “CONGRATS” on behalf of Dietz’ first bite with the unit as Lemay was being taken to the emergency room.

“I couldn’t even eat for a week after that because my face was so swollen,” Lemay related in a recent interview. After the encounter, fellow officer Brandon McHale asked about Lemay’s injuries, but displays little concern for the victim:

“YOUR BITE OR (Dietz’s)?” McHale inquired.

“I LET (Dietz) HAVE IT,” Bush replied.

“NICE, HOW BAD?” McHale asked.

“BAD,” Bush wrote. “FACE AND BACK.”

“SKIN GRAFT BAD?” McHale asked.

“NO,” Bush wrote.

“COULDA BEEN WORSE THEN, HE SHOULD HAVE COMPLIED,” McHale said, ending the conversation.

North Port Police Chief Kevin Vespia, along with other police staff, found that the actions against Lemay fell within department policy and did not warrant further investigation.

Officer Dietz was found guilty of domestic battery just three years later, in 2015.

Lemay’s mauling is only one incident in a pattern of behavior by the North Port K-9 unit, and his case is just part of a long history of brutality and lack of accountability.

An investigation by the Herald-Tribune found that North Port’s police canine unit recorded at least 34 bites from 2010 through 2014 — more bites than recorded by the canine units of nearby Sarasota, Bradenton, Palmetto, Venice and Punta Gorda combined during that same period.

Their investigation also found that the bite ratio of North Port’s K-9 unit was higher than federal standards allow. A bite ratio measures the number of total bites against the number of apprehensions, and 30 percent is the maximum law enforcement agencies use to investigate handler misconduct. North Port’s unit measured a bite ratio of 37 percent.

The case of Justin Lemay also defies two separate policies set by the International Association of Chiefs of Police for K-9 units, which states that they should not be used to engage “the mentally disturbed if no other crime is involved.” The policy also states that “extra care should be taken and alternatives to the deployment of a canine should be considered in the case of juvenile suspects.”

North Port Police Chief Kevin Vespia declined two interview requests with the Herald-Tribune.
