Tentative movie titles:
- ROBBER BARONS & ROBBER JUDGES
- FRAUD MEDIEVAL
In a case involving corruption of the judiary, neither an opinion letter from a fraud expert/FBI veteran, nor any type of legal/documentary proof make law enforcement enforce the law in LA. In such case one must appeal to the highest authority of all - the STUDIOS...
LETTER TO A STUDIO:
August 3, 2008
Hi Y -
Time flies, it looks like it is two years since we last talked. And these were definitely the two strangest years in my life...
This past week I had a major achievement - my allegation were confirmed by a veteran FBI agent, who was commended by te U.S. Congress, by then Attorney General Ashcroft, by the FBI Chief, etc, and who was largely responsible a few years ago for an FBI operation that ended up with the arrest of some California State assembly members for taking bribes.
He wrote a short, 2-page report, basically confirming some of my core allegations - of real estate fraud by the judges of the Los Angeles Superior Court, as part of a well -established ~25 years old racketeering enterprise operating from within the court...
My allegations were the outcome of research and investigations that I conducted practically on my own in the last two years, out of necessity, in an attempt to defend myself, and under considerable pressure, including one death threat, and one arrest threat by a corrupt judge.
When I shared this report with a friend, who was previously skeptic about my outlandish theories, she responded:"Very impressive."
But the more surprising part of the turnaround is that in the last month or so, I have been repeatedly told by people who know what it is all about - "It is going to make a great movie", not that I wrote it, it just happened to me... in fact it is still happening to me... So here is what I wrote back to the friend, about where it is all going from here, and why I am writing to you.
A studio's role in this script will not be only as a movie producing entity, but in fact, as the quintessential instrument, possibly the only instrument that can make LA's law enforcement authorities do what they are supposed to do by law. Studio involvement may be the only thing that would force some cleaning up of the justice system of Los Angeles County.
If this is something that is of interest to you, please let me know, and I would submit it as a treatment. If your studio would be interested, we would have to figure out how to deliver to the writers the necessary materials, to derive a script from what is an extremely complicated interwoven series of white collar crimes, computer frauds, wire frauds, mortgage frauds...
Already in Jan 2007, before any media report on the crisis, I submitted to the FBI headquarters in Los Angeles a complaint of a few hundred pages against Countrywide, built almost entirely on careful analysis of computer printouts, with estimates of fraud against the U.S. government (that means you are going to pay the bill...) in the hundreds of billions.
By March 2007 I had a second installment ready, in which I started to develop the theme of the connection to the courts of LA. At that time they told me that they were not interested. In fact, I doubt that they ever figured it out.
About 2 month ago, I got a phone call from the FBI white collar crime squad, and they demanded that I write a new report, and that I identify "all my sources at Countrywide". The fact is that I really don't have any sources at Countrywide - already by July 2007 Countrywide went to court, and I met in court their attorneys from Bryan Cave, LLP - on a day that the court was "dark" - a pretty spooky experience, in a hearing on a gag order to prevent me from talking about Countrywide, or with anybody that was "associated" with Countrywide - obviously an entirely illegal court proceeding.
Much later I found out in one of the hidden court records, that the judge defined it as an "off the records" proceeding...
And strangely, in their court papers Countrywide referred to the death threat phone call that I had received by then - from a person that I had never met, and who I had no idea was connected to Countrywide. They stated that since I managed to locate a key witness that was supposed to be untraceable, they needed to deal with me "firmly".
In another court paper they were wondering about the prudence of my "delving into dense banking records".
I have seen in the last two years parts of the justice system in LA that are not far removed from Guantanamo Bay - with off the record court hearings, secret court files, fake court records, fake attorneys, all the things that barely two years ago I would have said could never possibly exist here and now... maybe in some other country...
Today I think I was too cautious, since the numbers would surely end up in the trillions - the biggest bank heist in history... And as news media continue to drum up the stories of collapse of real estate markets (the worst is still ahead of us...), and the related collapse of banking institutions (the worst is still ahead of us...), and collapse of the dollar (the worst is still ahead of us...), and as movie goers as individuals and as a the public at large live through the pain of it all and try to make sense of this unnecessary financial disaster, the movie - "ROBBER BARONS AND ROBBER JUDGES" (tentative title) - has a good chance of becoming a money-maker, or even a hit...
Thanks for your time,
LETTER TO A FRIEND:
!Hola R.!
Are you writing from LA?
I was euphoric the day I received that letter from the veteran FBI agent. And on the same week I had another major achievement in getting into the archives of the court and finding the data that the court tried to hide from me for a year - showing that the judgment in my case was a fraud - the document that they showed in the courtroom was never recorded (never "entered") as a true court document...
But now I have to make it happen... to get law enforcement agencies start an investigation, where most of the investigation was in fact already done...
The evidence is clear:
1) That a group of judges instituted a racketeering enterprise in Santa Monica Courthouse some 25 years ago ...
2) That the racket was enabled by introducing a computer system into the Los Angeles Superior Court at that time (it's the voting machine story, 25 years later) with no public oversight, out of compliance and in violation of the law...
3) That the Office of the Presiding Judge of LA Superior Court was and is aware of the enterprise and is busy covering it up, therefore, it is likely much more extensive than the Santa Monica Courthouse...
4) That real estate fraud was and is one of the specialties of the enterprise, and that may explain why the FBI reports that LA County is the 'epicenter of a real estate and mortgage fraud epidemic that is a high national priority to fight ...'
5) That hiding the Books of Court, in particular - the Book of Judgments - is critical for continued operations of the racket...
6) That certain large law-firms (e.g. Sheppard Mullin, Bryan Cave, LLP) were and are in collaboration with the racket, and benefit from its operations...
7) That the racket collaborated with the highest levels of management in Countrywide... Angelo Mozillo, and more so - Sandor Samuels - the Chief Legal Counsel... and very good friend of some of the judges...
Any suggestions, ideas, would be greatly appreciated. I am working on the line of Senate and House Judiciary Committees, who have been for a while interested in the issue of corruption of the judiciary in the U.S., the possibility that the current real estate crisis is driven at least in part by misconducts of various kinds, and the cover-up in cases where such corruption seems to be exposed...
I am also repeatedly advised that a non-profit association must be established, to start fund raising, and generate political pressure for the rescue of LA County's justice system...
The simplest way I explain it is like this:
By law, derived from several hundred years of Common Law, and more recently from, the Supreme court decision on the Nixon tapes - (Nixon v Warner Communications, Inc) all court records and books of court are public records, and open for review by the public. The Supreme Court ruled that it is part of First Amendment rights.In contrast, the Los Angeles Superior Court has been hiding its books, including in particular the Book of Judgments for about 20-25 years, out of compliance and in violation of the law...
I find it difficult to believe, every time I tell the story it sounds medieval to me...
How could it happen that 9.5 million people are deprived of First Amendment rights for so long?
How could it happen, in a major metropolitan area in the U.S.A., with a very large community of attorneys, with who-knows- how-many law schools - including 2 top 20 schools (USC and UCLA) - without anybody noticing, or without anybody saying anything for a couple of decades or more?
Hiding the books, particularly the Book of Judgments, it a critical for the Racket. But there is no explanation and no excuse for the Los Angeles Superior Court, or any court for that purpose, to hide its books, unless for enabling corrupt operations.
Therefore, the focus of the political action I am trying to move is:
Open the Books of Los Angeles County Superior Court,
and
Bring back Los Angeles County into the fold of the U.S. Constitution...
It's tough. But if we are successful, it would be the biggest reform in government and the justice system in Los Angeles County in at least several decades, and a reform that past scandals indicated is much needed...
In discussing this case with a local politician, he pointed out to me that this scandal - the Book of Judgments Scandal - is likely to be an "effective scandal", compared to past "ineffective scandals". By that he meant that the Rodney King riots, or the Rampart scandal, did not really result in any lasting effect on Los Angeles County... However, if the Books of Court will be opened, it would be a mini revolution:
a. The racket would be immediately inactivated, and
b. It would be very easy to review what was done in the last 10-20 years by certain judges, and determine who was part of the racket and who was not... These are all computerized books, it could be fast and effective... there are certain "finger prints" in the data that show you right away which cases were racketeered. That is why they must keep the books hidden.
On the other hand, a situation where the LA County would go on with business as usual, and allow the racket to continue its operations after such information as I am presenting here was known, appears to me an absurd. But then again, if nobody makes the effort to get it moving, it is not going to happen...
I am advised that we must start fund raising for a political action, that it is essential to identify a couple of anchors... large funds or very wealthy individuals who may put some money down, but more importantly, by donating will signify that their charitable fund managers:
a. Reviewed the data and found it credible,
b. Concluded that this is a high priority cause that is likely to yield good return on their investment as measured in anticipated positive effects in LA County government.
In parallel, I am advised that the LA way of doing business, is to find a movie star who is inclined towards such causes to represent the fund raising operation. Alternatively - or in parallel - sell the rights for the script... I have heard it too many times in the last couple of months, and from people in the industry...
Any suggestions of who to try to target for such Donor-Anchors / Spokesperson Stars / Studios or agents to represent the story would be greatly appreciated. It is likely to be the crowd of "card carrying members of the ACLU" - and President Eisenhower was one, just as a reminder...
