BIG BROTHER'S IDEAL STATE IS OKLAHOMA
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------APRIL
2005
The biggest danger to national security is the threat of eliminating a
citizens freedoms and civil rights by the state or
any governmental entity through the means of criminal acts and the
isolation and the suppression of individuals
rights, freedom, speech, and their religious faith. This is the utmost
danger to national security ~JaysNet
OKLAHOMA CITY LEGAL SYSTEM EXPOSED AS A FORM OF ORGANIZED CRIME
------------------------The Story of Joyce Gilchrist, Lou Keel,
Detective Mathews & Mr. Perfect
--------------------------------
--------Members of The Oklahoma City District Attorney's Office &
The Oklahoma
------------ -City Police Gather at The Bob
Macey Picnic
Seldom in our modern system of criminal justice do we see such abuse
and criminal activity as in the Oklahoma City legal
system. We see innocent citizens convicted largely on the basis of
false, misleading and unfounded testimony by witnesses
whom were paid by the state, to testify and those within the legal
system who are willing to say or do anything to please the
district attorney's office. This is a justice system so flawed and
untrustworthy that it should be replaced from bottom to top.
Until that time, it is certain there will be more cases such as that
of Jeffrey Todd Pierce, an innocent man convicted for a terrible
crime, and who as a result of a corrupt justice system, lost his
family, fifteen years of his life, and his future, all this without
compensation from a state willing only to say "We're Sorry" and do
nothing to compensate this man for this horrendous injustice
which was perpetrated against him by individuals in the The Oklahoma
City Police Department with the blessings of The
Oklahoma District Attorneys Office. Until such time, when district
attorneys, police officers, and crime lab personnel are held
criminally liable for their lies, deceptions and false testimony and
the manipulation of facts and evidence, we are certain to have
a criminal justice system bordering on criminal organization itself,
and in Oklahoma, that time has already passed concerning a
legal system infiltrated with corrupt officials, the legal system of
Oklahoma City is nothing more than organized crime hiding
behind a badge and is immune from any type of criminal prosecution.
It's time that we, the citizens of Oklahoma City, as well as other
areas of America, started enforcing the law on those whom are
sworn to uphold the law rather than abuse it. A good place to start
would be with individuals whom were , are whom are still
in the Oklahoma City system such as the fired Oklahoma City Police
forensic analysts Joyce Gilchrist, Judge Susan Caswell,
Detective Robert Mathews, and Oklahoma City District Attorney Wes
Lane, William Louis Keel, Detective Tom Jester and
police officers that include Tom Owen and Jeff Sellers. Louis William
Keel, the assistant district attorney of Oklahoma City,
who was assigned to the Terry Nichols Trial in the Oklahoma City 1995
bombing, and involved in the 1998 Mr. Brotherton
case, was arrested in 2004 by a under cover police task force for
soliciting a women to engage in lewd sexual acts The women
according to police reports was in fact a under cover police officer
in the sting operation.
I wish I could report a happy ending, concerning Joyce Gilchrist in
the civil trial by one of her victims, the above mentioned
Jeffrey Todd Pierce, but I can't. The 2003 civil case was dismissed
against Joyce Gilchrist and ex-District Attorney Bob
Macy. Joyce Gilchrist, as well as Bob Macy, have proven to be immune
from prosecution. I might add that the Oklahoma
Attorney General's Office and the Oklahoma City District Attorneys
Office failed to file or charge any crime against Ms.
Gilchrist, NOT ONE CHARGE! In 11 Gilchrist cases in which inmates
have already been executed will be not be considered
revisable. Many Oklahoma defense attorneys are convinced that such
testing in the cases, and numerous others, would prove
that shoddy, possibly corrupt science was used to secure convictions
of the Oklahoma City District Attorneys Office, and the
possibility of at least 2-3 of these executions were of innocent
citizens. Below is a report concerning the 2003 Civil Case results
in which the charges against Gilchrist and Macy were dismissed.
Proving that individuals within the system are immune from
prosecution, even criminal laws including obstruction of justice to
state murder

In closing, Joyce Gilchrist may have been guilty of criminal acts, but
she alone is not the sole person responsible for these
horrendous acts perpetrated against innocent citizens. Gilchrist was
aided by individuals in the Oklahoma City District
Attorney's Office in prosecuting these cases as well as the Oklahoma
City Police Department. It's time to bring those people to
justice as well. As of this writing, neither the state or the city
have filed one criminal charge against Gilchrist and those who had
aided her in these numerous tainted court cases which covers over a
decade. It's time to bring these people to justice and
convict them as they have convicted innocent citizens and have them
sent to prison and others who were placed on death row.
As of April 24, 2005, their are no records or charges ever being
filed by The State or the Oklahoma City District Attorneys
Office against Joyce Gilchrist. Not One Charge! It is impossible to
know the extent of corruption among public officials and law
enforcement officers. Many of these people merely look the other way
in issues of corruption and other numerous crimes when
committed by their fellow police officer or law enforcement
officials.. The police code, known as THE BLUE WALL OF
SILENCE are issues were cops decline to report criminal acts committed
by other police officers. A good example was the
July 2004 incident in which a police officer named Jeff Sellers
falsified a police report on Mr. Brotherton.
THE STORY OF MR. BROTHERTON
--------------------------
====-------- ---- Mr. Brotherton's Diary
"In my opinion, these people who hide behind their badge or their oath
of office, like Susan Caswell, Lou Keel, Wes
Lane, Detective Robert Mathews & Officer Jeff Sellers, are nothing but
a bunch of dumb Okie Hillbillies who stumbled
out of the cornfields of Hee-Haw, eating goober peas and drinking corn
squeezings from a little brown jug. I trust
these so-called officers of the law about as much as a chicken would
trust Colonel Sanders." Quote from Roger
Brotherton on the tainted Oklahoma City legal system.
---------------------
---------------Officer Mathews Report Lou Keel -- Susan
Cawell--The Arrest-Jail-Trial
APRIL 2005; This story is of a Mr. Brotherton who is a portrait
photographer and owner of Jays Model Agency located in
Oklahoma City. Mr. Brotherton is another victim of a corrupt and
criminal Oklahoma City legal system. A short biography of
events that have occurred since 1988 through 2005 shows a pattern of
criminal acts within the Oklahoma City Police
Department, and the Oklahoma City District Attorneys Office. Mr.
Brotherton has begged the FBI and The Department of
Justice for help and both agencies informed Mr. Brotherton there was
nothing they could do at the present time until all of the
fabricated state charges filed against Mr. Brotherton in 1998 are
dropped. The three major people in Mr. Brotherton's
complaint filed with The FBI & The Department of Justice in Washington
D.C. were Detective Robert Mathews, Assistant
District Attorney Lou Keel, and Oklahoma City Judge Susan P. Caswell.
This biography of events are listed in chronicle
order. The individual links below include documents and summaries of
Detective Robert Mathews, Assistant District Attorney
Lou Keel, and Oklahoma City Judge Susan P. Caswell. which show beyond
reasonable doubt or probable cause, they are
guilty of obstruction of justice and numerous criminal acts, and that
Mr. Brotherton is a victim of Malicious Prosecution. Other
criminal activities which you may view, as well as hear in this story
include acts of deceit, perjury and the violation of the
Victim's Rights Act, conspiracy, offering False or Forged Instruments
for Recordation by the DA and the police, procuring
Issuance of a Search Warrant Without Probable Cause, Aiding in the
Commission of Misdemeanor. The list of criminal acts
committed by these law enforcement individuals is endless in Mr.
Brotherton's ordeal..
After Seven years, Mr. Brotherton's case was recently assigned a trial
date of April 2005, which is over 7 years and 2 months
after the police arrested him in January of 1998 with a illegal search
warrant. Both The FBI & The Department of Justice
informed Mr. Brotherton they could not assist him until all the
current state charges are dropped. Mr. Brotherton knows he is
not the only victim of a corrupt legal system in Oklahoma and does not
wish to see more innocent victims go through the same
terror he has, and still is being subjected too. You may view and hear
the Mr. Brotherton's story
In most federal and state investigations, the prosecutors must show
motive and opportunity of the accused. The Brotherton
case, after careful investigation, shows a clear pattern of a criminal
behavior pattern by the police and the district attorney's
office. Mr. Brotherton states he can establish clearly, beyond
reasonable doubt or probable cause, display a criminal pattern by
the legal system and the opportunity and motive by individuals within
the Oklahoma City legal system to incriminate Mr.
Brotherton on fabricated charges filled with suggestive criminal
behavior, fabricated police reports, and a clear record of illegal
profiling of Mr. Brotherton to portray him as a criminal element to
insure a conviction of a honest businessman and a citizen
who has never been convicted of any crime, much less a traffic
violation in the last 10-15 years.
Below is a record of events that Mr. Brotherton has documented and
please remember that Mr. Brotherton has never been
convicted of any crime in his life and his conclusion, as well as
proof, was that the police have fabricated a criminal profile of
him, and even assigned him a criminal police moniker name of MR.
PERFECT.
Mr. Brotherton wishes to recognize the honest Oklahoma City Police
Officers as well as the honest prosecutors in the
Oklahoma City District Attorney's Office, who are in his mind, the
true heroes who use the law to protect citizens from
criminals. It saddens Mr. Brotherton to expose just a few of these
corrupt individuals and in no way does he wish to portray
that all officials are corrupt and unworthy. Those who stain the
public office and the uniform of the Oklahoma City Police are
the ones who need to be investigated and prosecuted under state and
federal law. Below are recent events which portray the
tainted legal system in Oklahoma City.
------------------------POLICE VICE SQUAD ARRESTS ASSISTANT
-----------OKLAHOMA CITY DISTRICT ATTORNEY LOU KEEL.
-- -----------------------------
Assistant District Attorney Lou Keel thought he had arranged to meet
with a local prostitute at a location near I-40 and
Meridian. In reality, the prostitute Keel had spoke with on the phone
was an undercover officer with the Oklahoma City police
vice department. Once Keel arrived at the hotel and offered to pay $50
for lewd acts he was arrested and booked into the
Oklahoma county jail for the charge of offering to engage in an act of
lewdness. Keel's identity and relationship with the DA's
office was not known until after the November 2004 arrest. Keel, a 23
year veteran of the Oklahoma County district attorney's
office, was ironically the former head of the Oklahoma County sex
crimes prosecution team. The Oklahoma Attorney General
Drew Edmondson's office appointed William N. Peterson, district
attorney in Pontotoc County, to try the case against Lou
Keel.. The Oklahoma County District Attorney's office stated, "We know
William Peterson to be a well respected DA." "He
will be making decisions regarding the case in the future."
Mr. Brotherton at that point decided to keep a close eye on this case
as he knew Lou Keel would receive a mere slap on the
wrist just as the Oklahoma City District Attorney Wes Lane's wife (
Lori Hansen ) drug case, which was handled by Judge
Susan Caswell.. One Oklahoma judge, Judge Burkett, made a statement
which summarizes the character of Susan Caswell, " I
would have a serious problem believing anything Caswell said to me,
and without absolute trust in both defense and prosecuting
lawyers, a fair trial would be slim and I couldn't try a case which
involved Susan Caswell." The Lori Hansen case was
presented to Judge Caswell on November 20,2001 according to OSCN
records. This case was opened and closed on the
same day and the phrase of a speedy trial is certainty true in this
case. The guilty plea and other documentation have been
expunged from the District Attorneys wife's record and The OSCN
Network shows that Lori Hansen, in violation of 63
O.S.Case# CF-2001-6065 is completely blank of any information. If
Oklahoma City District Attorney Wes Lane was so
adamant of keeping his office free of any bias by excusing his office
from involvement in prosecuting the Lou Keel case, then
why wasn't this procedure used in his own wife's case? They use Judge
Susan Caswell in Wes Lane's wife case in which the
case was deferred.
This Lou Keel is the same Lou Keel in the Mr. Brotherton case.Oklahoma
County Prosecutor Louis William Keel was
Arrested On Prostitution Charges in a police prostitution sting,
officials said Friday, November 12, 2004. Keel was arrested of
trying to hire a woman for lewd sex acts. The woman was an undercover
police officer. Keel was booked on a charge of
offering to engage in an act of lewdness with a prostitute, said
police Capt. Jeffrey Becker. Keel posted a $500 bond and was
released. Becker said Keel first made the offer in a telephone call to
a massage service advertisement police placed in a
publication as part of the sting, and then repeated the offer in a
subsequent telephone call. Keel was arrested after meeting the
undercover police officer at a hotel and offering to pay $50 for a
lewd sexual act. Keel was then arrested without incident.
District Attorney Wes Lane said he has suspended Keel with pay pending
a review of the police investigation. "We recognize
the gravity of this allegation and I am deeply disturbed," Lane said.
"The Oklahoma County District Attorney's office holds very
seriously the public's trust that justice will be served whether it is
a citizen or a public official and that obviously includes my
prosecutors." This proclamation by Wes Lane was later proved false as
the District Attorney's office tried to conceal the facts
of the Lou Keel case from the public and the media. It was found that
Keel had plea bargained for a deferred sentence around
December 16, 2004, and the District Attorneys Office had informed the
press on December 17 that a trial date had not been
set, because their wasn't going to be a trial. Of course, Wes Lane had
no comment on this incident.
The initial media reported that Keel, the now former Oklahoma County
prosecutor accused was formally charged on Thursday,
December 16,2004. Lou Keel, 54, is named in a misdemeanor count filed
in Oklahoma County District Court. An initial court
date has not been set as of December 17,2004. Mr. Brotherton at that
time, did his own research on the Keel case and
discovered no trial date had been set, because there wasn't going to
be a trial. This is because the Lou Keel case was opened
and closed on the same day, the16th, in which Mr. Keel pleaded guilty
and received a deferred sentence and a $500 fine. You
may view The Lou Keel Case. Mr. Brotherton contacted a few media
sources about this information. That same night of
December 17, 2004 it aired on KOCO TV and it appeared in Saturday's
edition of The Daily Oklahoman newspaper on
December 18th. It seemed the media was mislead as well as the public
by the Oklahoma County District Attorney's office.
One reporter, Nick Trougakos, wrote in the The Daily Oklahoman
Saturday December 18 edition, that lawyer Mr. Irving Box
suggested the Keel case was hurried through to avoid public
embarrassment and publicity due to that Mr. Keel was connected
with law enforcement. Mr. Brotherton agreed to a point, but the fact
is, as Mr. Brotherton has been victimized by the police
and Wes Lane's office. One incident during Mr. Brotherton's dilima,
was when Oklahoma City Police Captain Tom Jester told
Mr. Brotherton, " The Oklahoma City District Attorney's Office does
not prosecute police officers or their own." According to
The Daily Oklahoman, District Attorney Wes Lane declined to comment on
the Keel case, probably due to the fact this case
was handled in the same way Mr. Lane's wife 2001 drug case was
handled, open and closed the same day with a deferred
sentence, and later was completely expunged from the OSCN network. It
simply proves that Wes Lane's rhetoric on having
the case handled by another Attorney's Office ( Ada District Attorney
William N. Peterson ) when Lou Keel was originally
arrested was nothing but hypocrisy and further demonstrates that those
within the Oklahoma City legal system are immune from
the same crimes and sentences that the average citizen is charged
with. Mr. Brotherton knew this would happen, just as it did in
2001 in Wes Lane's wife felony case on drug charges. The biggest
insult to the integrity of the Oklahoma City legal system was
Wes Lane's eloquent speech before his office was exposed to what it
is, a corrupt and criminal organization. Below was Wes
Lane's previous comments reported by the media. "While I regret that
Mr. Keel's conduct has led to his separation from this
office, I must make clear I expect my staff to be role models within
the community," Lane said. "While I do have regrets, the
good that I have been a part of with so many wonderful and capable
people will, hopefully, make it easier for you to forgive all
else," Keel wrote in his resignation letter. The audacity of this
ludicrous statement by Lou Keel further confirms the deceit,
criminal and unethical acts of individuals in The Oklahoma City
District Attorney's Office.

Perhaps the most appalling act by Oklahoma City District Attorney Wes
Lane was his comments in a article by The Daily
Oklahoman reporter Nick Trougakos. In the March 27, 2005 report, Wes
Lane commented on plea bargains in which he said:
"No jurisdiction anywhere is set up where they could go to trial on
every single case. There's just not enough resources, judges,
prosecutors and staff to do that. Plea bargains help save tax payers
money by moving people through the justice system. Every
case the district attorney office disposes of, means you don't have to
subpoena police officers, which means the police
department does not have to pay officers overtime. Plea bargains have
this nasty sound to them, but people need to realize is
that we never compromise on principle. If someone needs to go to
prison, their going to prison. Our challenge is to give both
the defendant and the victim what they deserve as quickly as possible
for the benefit of the victim." Again, Wes Lane's
hypocrisy shows no bounds as it did in his wife's drug case, which was
pleas bargained then expunged, and the case of
Oklahoma City prosecutor Lou Keel, where the press and the public were
misguided by the Lou Keel case, and when
confronted by this act, Wes Lane had no comment according to the Daily
Oklahoman report. What comment could he make?
That his office lied and mislead the press as well as the citizens of
Oklahoma City? This is the character of Wes Lane and the
corrupt individuals in the Oklahoma City District Attorneys Office.

OKLAHOMA NATION'S LEADER IN DEATH CAMPS
A Oklahoman reporter composed a article that had documented over
12,000 felony and misdemeanor charges were filed in
Oklahoma County District Court during the year long judicial session
which ended on July 1, 2004. Over that period, only 164
of 12,000 cases went to trial, a percentage of of less than .02% which
is a disturbing pattern due to these facts. In 2002
Oklahoma had the nation's fourth highest incarceration rate by
sending people to prison. In the years 1977 through 2003,
Oklahoma had the second highest execution rate of prisoners on death
row with a total of 69, second only to Texas which had
the highest executions which numbered 313. The total executions of all
states was 885 during the same time period, which
means almost 50% of all executions of prisoners in the United States
were held in Oklahoma and Texas. The 2004 population
of Texas was over 22 million while the population of Oklahoma was 3.5
million, a percentage difference of 7 to 1.
By using this calculation of executions per population, Texas has 313
executions while Oklahoma would have 7 times the
number of executions that would total 483! Oklahoma is truly a state
of crime and murders, by criminals and those whom
represent the Oklahoma justice systen whom are sworn to uphold the
law.
OKLAHOMA CITY POLICE LAB FORENSIC ANALYSIS JOYCE GILCHRIST 20045
CASE FOLLOW UP. THE OKLAHOMA DISTRICT ATTORNEYS OFFICE OR THE
OKLAHOMA GENERAL ATTORNEYS OFFICE HAVE NOT FILED ANY CHARGES
AGAINST GILCHRIST. NOT ONE CHARGE !
-------------------------------
Mr. Brotherton has also kept a eye on the Joyce Gilchrist and Bob Macy
case which he feels is a form of organized crime in it's
most basic form within the Oklahoma City legal system. Below are just
a few reports on the unethical practices that were
employed by former Oklahoma District Attorney Bob Macy and Oklahoma
City Police forensic analysis Joyce Gilchrist. The
reports include numerous report sources such as 60 Minutes, Time, The
A.C.L.U. Just type in the word phrase Joyce Gilchrist
into a web search engine such as Google. Even with all this, Joyce
Gilchrist and Bob Macy were acquitted in a 2003 civil case
in which was filed by one of the victims of the corrupt Oklahoma City
Legal system which is nothing short of organized crime
behind a badge. The reason Mr. Brotherton used the word organized
crime is that the Oklahoma Attorney General and the
Oklahoma District Attorney's Office failed to even file one charge
against Macy and Gilchrist. Simply click on the Gilchrist
Images Below and I'm sure you would wonder why no state or city
charges were filed against Joyce Gilchrist and Bob Macy.

-----------------------------------------Joyce Gilchrist
Joyce Gilchrist received her nickname "Black Magic" owing to her
remarkable ability to see evidence other forensic chemists
could not see, to draw conclusions that others would not approach, to
turn speculation into fact and in doing so help the
Oklahoma County District Attorney's office rack up win after win in
district court. According to news reports, there are
currently at least six federal, state and local agencies re-examining
her work. Numerous falsely convicted individuals are being
freed from Oklahoma's prisons in what is turning out to be one of the
biggest scandals of all time in a state widely known for its
scandals and corruption within the police and district attorneys
office. A U.S. District Judge Ralph G. Thompson reviewed a
Oklahoma death penalty case and concluded that Gilchrist in her
testimony gave "untrue" and "misleading" testimony.
Thompson noted that forensic chemist Joyce Gilchrist had clear
knowledge of DNA test results that would have pointed to the
innocence of accused citizens. Thompson criticized not only
Gilchrist's testimony and actions, but also noted that she has been
repeatedly criticized by the Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals for
such things as testifying "to a conclusion which was not
scientifically supported" and submitting reports that were "at best
incomplete, and at worst inaccurate and misleading."
In a 21 year career, Oklahoma City police chemist Joyce Gilchrist was
a prosecutor's dream: She delivered supportive lab
analysis and convincing testimony that helped send hundreds to prison
and at least 23 people to death row. So much of her
work was questioned by appeals courts and forensics experts that she
was suspended then fired from the Oklahoma City
Police Department..
In yet another example of Gilchrist at her "worst" one need only look
at the case of Curtis Edward McCarty, accused, tried and
convicted of first degree murder. The Oklahoma Court of Criminal
Appeals in reversing McCarty's conviction ruled a new trial
was required owing to numerous issues with Gilchrist's testimony.
These issues included errors, failures and untrue testimony in
the case. You can read the entire Appeals Court ruling at McCARTY v.
STATE. The Oklahoma Court found that Ms.
Gilchrist's delay and neglect in not completing her forensic
examination and report was inexcusable. In yet another incident in
1999, two men who had spent 12 years in prison, one on death row, were
released after DNA tests cleared them in an Ada,
Oklahoma rape-murder. The cases were luckily reviewed by a New York
based Innocence Project and not by the Oklahoma
City Police or District Attorneys Office. Complaints about Ms.
Gilchrist's work arose while former Oklahoma County District
Attorney Bob Macy was the chief prosecutor. Oklahoma County District
Attorney Robert Macy, who often relied on
testimony from Gilchrist, announced his resignation in June of 2001.
Macy proudly claims to have tried at least 60 capital cases
and is known as America's Deadliest DA. The Bob Macy quote of,
"proudly claims to have tried at least 60 capital cases' in
which human beings are put to death is the character of Bob Macy.
Macy also endorsed Susan P. Caswell for circuit judge,
whom is the most tainted corrupt prosecutor for the city, and now she
is a Oklahoma City judge which is a deadly blow to the
judicial system. One Oklahoma judge, Judge Burkett, made a statement
which summarizes the character of Susan Caswell, " I
would have a serious problem believing anything Caswell said to me,
and without absolute trust in both defense and prosecuting
lawyers, a fair trial would be slim and I couldn't try a case which
involved Susan Caswell." were Judge Burkett's analysis of
Caswell.
"I'm very concerned that there may be anybody serving time or facing
execution who may be actually innocent of the charges,"
said Oklahoma Attorney General Drew Edmondson, "And that's why I'm
very interested in reviewing all of these cases." Mr.
Edmondson, opposes a blanket moratorium on executions, similar to one
ordered by Illinois Gov. George Ryan after he
learned that 13 death row inmates had been exonerated since 1987. The
questions arising in Oklahoma are similar to concerns
raised in other states in recent years. Also Oklahoma Attorney General
Drew Edmondson's Office has failed to file one charge
against Gilchrist, so I would question his sincerity and integrity on
this matter. Below is the Oklahoma Attorney General's view
of equal justice for all, of course that excludes those who are in the
political and legal system.

-------JUDGE WALKS WHILE OKLAHOMA LEGAL SYSTEM BALKS
The Daily Oklahoman reported a story in February 2005 that concerned
the arrest and the release of an Oklahoma appeals
judge secretary. The Oklahoman reported that Dawn Lukasik was arrested
on December 18 on suspicion of drug possession,
but was released and was never charged. According to the article, Dawn
Lukasik"s purse contained two case files, a judge's
credit card number and the judge's driver's license, plus a white
substance thought to be meth amphetamine during the arrest.
The Judge was Steve Lile of the Oklahoma Court of Appeals. The article
focused on the Open Records Act and that it was
being abused to cover up or conceal information of powerful people in
criminal investigations. One Oklahoman reporter,
Randy Ellis, in his article, described that the Lawton police were not
releasing information on the case according to Mark
Thomas, vice president of the Oklahoma Press Association. Under the
Open Records Act, facts of the arrest and the release of
individuals and the arresting officer must be revealed. However,
police may deny access to other law enforcement records.
Lawton Police Chief Harold Thorne wrote The Oklahoman stating, "You
requested records not required to be released under
the act. and it is city policy to release only those records the Act
requires to be released." The outcome of this fiasco was that
Judge Steve Lile resigned and will not face criminal charges and that
Lile had reimbursed the state over $3,000 dollars in
questionable travel and office purchases. State Attorney Drew
Edmundson was reported to say, "I am pleased Judge Lile
resigned and accepted responsibility for his actions." This story was
noted in The Daily Oklahoman on March 1, 2005 . In
conclusion, what constitutes a powerful person where records can be
kept from the press or the public that concerns criminal
activity? This is simply another ruse where those in law enforcement
and political office are immune from criminal acts where as
the citizens of Oklahoma would be in prison if they had committed the
same type of crime.
FORMER STATE REPRESENTATIVE RECEIVES THREE MONTH
-----------DEFERRED SENTENCE IN 2004 HOMICIDE CASE
----------------------------------------
------------------------------------------WES WATKINS
DECEMBER 2004: Former U.S. Rep. Wes Watkins of Oklahoma is to appear
in court to respond to charges of negligent
homicide filed after two people were killed in a crash involving four
vehicles, one a tanker truck. Watkins faces two charges of
negligent homicide in the deaths of Brian Cullen, 32, and his wife,
Ardith, 34, according to Payne County District Court
records. Brian Cullen was a freshman at Oklahoma State University at
Stillwater, where Ardith Cullen was a senior.
They were killed in a crash on U.S. Highway 177 near Stillwater,
Okla., April 19. The charges against Watkins each carry a
maximum penalty of one year in jail. However, District Attorney Rob
Hudson has said he likely will seek probation.
An investigation by Oklahoma Highway Patrol Trooper Drew Hamilton
concluded that the wreck was caused by Watkins'
alleged inattentive driving. Watkins was at the wheel of his
southbound 2001 Dodge when his car struck the Cullens¹ 1992
Ford Taurus, which Hamilton said was stopped ahead of the former
lawmaker. Former U.S. Rep. Wes Watkins said it is his
"hope and prayer" that negligent homicide charges against him
concerning a fatal traffic accident will be dropped. "That's the
hope and prayer of a lot of others," Watkins said. "Everyone I've
talked to, that's their feeling." I doubt the former senator
would get the same reaction of the famlies whose loved ones who were
killed in this incident.
Watkins, 65, of Stillwater was not in court when his case was called
by Special District Judge Michael Stano. "I would have
been there if the attorneys asked me to be there," Watkins said during
a telephone interview. "They indicated it would be put
off. It was not necessary for me to come." District Attorney Rob
Hudson has said Watkins' case does not warrant jail time. He
has said there was no evidence that Watkins was driving fast or
talking on a cell phone ( The only evidence was the dead
bodies.). I would think the deaths of those in the accident would
warrant jail time. Watkins hopes negligent homicide charges
dismissed. Negligent homicide is a misdemeanor that carries a maximum
penalty of one year in the county jail and a fine of
$1,000. In addition to facing criminal charges, Watkins was sued for
damages by relatives of the victims. The lawsuit was
settled and dismissed in late September, with the amount sealed in
Payne County District Court. ''Were so thankful the family is
satisfied. We're glad to have the civil settlement behind us,''
Watkins said. He said it was covered by insurance. The sentence of
Mr. Watkins homicide case resulted in a three month deferred sentence.
The Daily Oklahoman staff writer, David Zizzo,
reported that both prosecutors and defense attorneys in the case
agreed on a three month deferred sentence for each charge, to
run concurrently. Assistant District Attorney Tyson Branyan was
quoted," This case has carried on for some time, and Mr.
Watkins has not re-offended and has been essentially under probation
for this time." The District Judge Michael Stano stated
that a deferred sentence in such a case is not unusual, although the
90 days agreed to by the state prosecutors was unusually
short. State District Attorney Rob Hudson said the sentence was
nothing unusual for a first time offender, particularly in a non
violent misdemeanor. In closing, when the state's prosecutor deems
that two deaths are non violent, as Rob Hudson did, sums
up the moral and unethical values of Oklahoma's State and Oklahoma
City's tainted legal system.

--------FBI AGENT TELLS MR. BROTHERTON THEY CAN DO NOTHING WHERE
--------PORN WEB SITES GIVE FREE ACCESS TO ANYONE, INCLUDING MINORS
------------------------------------------------------------------ON
HACKED ADULT SITES
----------------------
In April of 2005 Mr. Brotherton came across a site named
www.gaypasses.com. This site promotes hacking adult web sights,
then place user names and pass words on their page which gives anyone,
including minors free access to password restricted
areas. Mr. Brotherton found that his site www.modelboy.com was on this
site as well and from the date of March 17 through
April 5,2005 over 12,000 people had accessed his member protected area
without paying, thus costing him the bandwidth and
over $360,000 in sales if these people had paid to enter the
modelboy.com web site's protected member area. Mr. Brotherton
was shocked when he was told by the Cybertipline that it's up to the
parents to monitor what their children do online. Mr.
Brotherton's point was that this site was hacking adult sites where
people, including minors, can access them for free. The last
time Mr. Brotherton read the law, according to The Patriot Act, that
computer crime is a federal offense and theirs a clause in
The Patriot Act stating that computer crimes, or hackers, is a
terrorist act.. Simply click on the link images above. Mr.
Brotherton did his own checking on this site and found that it was a
global hack site offering people free entry to adult sites that
require payment and proof of age. Mr. Brotherton"s E-Mail to The FBI
concerning these sites. Mr. Brotherton realizes the
strain on the FBI in that they can not be everywhere at the same time
to combat these type activities. But the reply from the
Cybertiphitline was, in Mr. Brotherton's opinion, totally unacceptable
as well as negligent.
-----------------------------------THE GROWING THREAT TO CITIZENS ARE
--------------------------------NOT TERRORISTS, IT'S THE LEGAL SYSTEM
All across the country, the drug war is giving us a organized police
crime entity on a frightening scale. It’s undermining our
criminal justice system and our civil rights. It’s tough to legally
find evidence of a drug deal between a willing buyer and seller.
To make it stick you’re going to have to lie about it on the witness
stand. Everybody knows you’re lying , the prosecutor, the
judge, the bailiff, but nobody complains because that’s how you get
the job done. Just one example of a cops criminal deceit
was a incident a gang of crooked and brutal Oakland cops known as the
"Riders" went free at the end of September. After a
trial that lasted more than a year, three ex-Oakland cops were found
not guilty on eight charges of abuse. The jury deadlocked
on another 27 criminal charges. The three cops--Matthew Hornung,
Clarence Mabanag and Jude Siapno, were accused of
planting evidence, kidnapping and assault, among other allegations.
Frank Vasquez, the ringleader of the Riders, is believed to
have fled the country. The case against the three thugs should have
been open and shut. The Oakland Police Department has
already fired them nd the city has paid their victims close to $11
million to settle civil lawsuits. But Alameda County District
Attorney Tom Orloff obviously wasn't too concerned about winning this
case. "This blows me away," one alternate told the San
Francisco Chronicle. "I can't believe this. They are so guilty. The
evidence was overwhelming. Most Black people know that
police can lie to make an arrest, but I think the people on this jury
don't believe it's possible for police to lie. They just don't get
it." Now, the three cops, smug after their victory in the courtroom,
have said that they may reapply to become Oakland cops.
Since the verdict was announced, activists, residents and victims of
police brutality have been organizing rallies outside the
courthouse to expose the truth, that the real criminals are the cops
who terrorize citizens neighborhoods. We have to keep up
this pressure and stop Oakland's cops from going back to vigilante
justice according to one of protesters. The federal and state
law enforcement agencies are riddled with corruption as well. One
example includes the 2001 Robert Hansen case, one of the
nation's top FBI Agents for 27 years, was caught and convicted for
espionage and selling vital information to the Russians.The
damage done by Mr. Hansen may never be known. Mr. Hansen is currently
serving a life sentence. Another example is the
case Justin Volpe of the New York City Police Department who was found
guilty in 1999 of torturing Abner Louima by
holding him down and ramming a broken broom stick up his rectum
causing major injuries. These are the most well known
cases but the growing numbers of criminals who are within the legal
system is growing at a alarming rate.
