11-11-07 Sandor Samuels, President of Bet Tzedek - the Los Angeles “House of Justice” - is nominated to Alternet’s SubCrime 1% list // Sandor Samuels está nominado a 1% lista delincuentes financieros // 桑德尔塞缪尔提名前1％，金融犯罪分子列表

As Chief Legal Officer of Countrywide and later Associate General Counsel of Bank of America, Sandor Samuels was the key person in fraud on homeowners, on shareholders, on the taxpayers, and in corruption of banking regulators, the California and US courts.  Today he has the audacity to hide under the title of President of the Los Angeles Bet Tzedek “House of Justice”.  The Los Angeles Jewish and legal communities have been repeatedly put on notice since 2007…

Los Angeles, November 7 –  with the launching by Alternet and others of public listing of the 1% SubCrime figures, Joseph Zernik, PhD, of Human Rights Alert (NGO), has nominated Sandor Samuels, former Chief Legal Officer of Countrywide and former Associate General Counsel of Bank of America to the list.

In justifying the nomination, Dr Zernik says:

Sandor Samuels’ net personal worth may be smaller than that of co-conspirators Angelo Mozilo and Brian Moynihan.  But in his years in Countrywide and Bank of America, he was the key person in corrupting banking regulators, California and US judges, and in the massive fraud on fraud perpetrated on homeowners, on shareholders, and on taxpayers. 

Moreover, Mr Samuels has the audacity to hide today under the title of President of the Los Angeles Bet Tzedek (“The House of Justice”), an affiliate of the Los Angeles Jewish Federation.  Worse yet, the evidence shows Mr Samuels engaging in racketeering in collusion with his Bet Tzedek friends – David Pasternak (former President of Bet Tzedek and former President of the Los Angeles County Bar Association) and Terry Friedman (former Executive Director of Bet Tzedek and former California Judge).  The evidence also shows Sandor Samuels engaging in racketeering on the grounds of Bet Tzedek, from the office of the President of Bet Tzedek.

The evidence of racketeering by Countrywide and Bank of America in the California courts was part of Human Rights Alert’s submission for the 2010 UPR (Universal Periodic Review) of Human Rights in the United States by the Human Rights Council of the United Nations.  The submission was later incorporated into the official Professional Staff Report, with a note referring to “corruption of the courts and the legal profession and discrimination by law enforcement in California.”

Overwhelming evidence of racketeering in the courts by Sandor Samuels has been amassed by Dr Zernik since early 2007. [[i],[ii],[iii],[iv],[v]]  The evidence showed him as key figure in corrupting the California Superior Court, County of Los Angeles, where California Judge Jacqueline Connor was his main contact, and a dozen other judges his co-conspirators. [[vi],[vii],[viii],[ix]]

Moreover, subsequent events showed that Sandor Samuels crimes was patronized by senior figures in the US justice system:

• FBI Assistant Director for Criminal Investigations Kenneth Kaiser;
• US Department of Justice Director “Fast and Furious” Kenneth Melson;
• US Judge Virginia Phillips, US Magistrate Carla Woehrle, and Clerk Terry Nafisi in the US District Court, Central District of California;
• Circuit Judges Stephen Reinhardt, Marsha Berzon and Milan Smith, as well as Clerk Molly Dwyer in the US Court of Appeals, 9th Circuit;
• Securities and Exchange Commission Chair Mary Schapiro;
• Comptroller of the Currency John Dugan;
• Office of Thrift Supervision;
• Office of Federal Trade Commission.

Detailed evidence of racketeering in the courts by Mr Samuels has been repeatedly forwarded since early 2007 to the Los Angeles Jewish and legal communities.   Regardless, Mr Samuels continues to be embraced by both, as:

• President of the Los Angeles Bet Tzedek (“House of Justice”), an affiliate of the Los Angeles Jewish Federation.
• Board Member of the Los Angeles American Jewish University and the Ziegler School of Rabbinic Studies (Rabbi Robert Wexler)
• Board Member of Shalhevet School
• Board Member of Adat Ari-El synagogue, Los Angeles (Rabbi Jonathan Bernhardt)

Repeated notices have also been forwarded to the Anti Defamation League’s National Director Abraham Foxman, who continues to refuse to comment on the matter.

“There simply is no shame left,” concludes Dr Zernik.
