Andre’ Birotte, Jr
US Attorney, Central District of California
Jacqueline Connor, Judge John Clarke, Clerk
Central figures in the LA-JR (Alleged Los Angeles Judiciary Racket)
"US Attorney Birotte effectively patronizes the LA-JR," says Dr Zernik, "The US government has lost control over Los Angeles County, California, for at least two decades."
The request is also part of the ongoing dialogue with the United States government in the wake of the 2010 UPR (Universal Periodic Review) of Human Rights in the United States by the United Nations, which noted “Corruption of the courts and the legal profession and discrimination by law enforcement in California.”
The US government lost control of Los Angeles County, California, to the LA-JR at least two decades ago
The Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles, is the largest county court in the United States.
The evidence of racketeering by judges of the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles, is indisputable. The two main forms are:
· In the criminal courts - large scale false imprisonment, to cover up drug trading by law enforcement, and
· In the civil courts - financial and real estate fraud through collusion of judges, attorneys, and financial institutions under the guise of cases of simulated litigation in the Court. [[iii]]
Key figures of the alleged racket are: [[iv]]
· FREDERIC BENNETT, Court Counsel – central figure in the operation of secretive corporations, controlled by the judges, which have been reported for over a decade; [[v]]
· JOHN A CLARKE, Clerk of the Court – allows the conduct of simulated litigation in numerous cases of the Court and routine fraud in court records; [[vi]]
· JACQUELINE CONNOR, California Judge – central figure in the Rampart scandal and its cover up.
Others, who should be considered as prominent figures in the alleged racket are:
· SANDOR SAMUELS, Attorney, former Chief Legal Officer of Countrywide and former Associate General Counsel of Bank of America;
· DAVID PASTERNAK, Attorney, former President of the Los Angeles County Bar Association - key figure in numerous cases of real estate fraud.
A long history corruption
The Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles, is the largest county court in the United States.
The evidence of racketeering by judges of the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles, is indisputable:
· In 1998-2000, the Rampart corruption scandal was described as the largest case of court corruption in the history of the United States. The false imprisonment of thousands, almost exclusively black and Latinos was documented – the Rampart-FIPs (Falsely Imprisoned Persons). [[vii]]
· In 2001, in the wake of the Rampart Scandal, legal scholars reported:
"...judges tried and sentenced a staggering number of people for crimes they did not commit." [[viii]] "This is conduct associated with the most repressive dictators and police states... and judges must share responsibility when innocent people are convicted." [[ix]]
· In 2001-2009, under the Bush administration, an “Overseer for Civil Rights” was appointed. Los Angeles shared the distinction with Guantanamo Bay and the California prisons. However, in retrospect, conduct of the “Overseer” should be deemed a fig leaf. There is no evidence that he affected the release of even a single one of the Rampart-FIPs.
· By 2004, Los Angeles County was described in FBI reports as:
“The epicenter of the epidemic of real estate and mortgage fraud”. It was the epidemic that eventually resulted in the current financial crisis.
· In 2006, the Blue Ribbon Review Panel report concluded:
"Innocent people remain in prison"
"...the LA Superior Court and the DA office, the two other parts of the justice system that the Blue Panel Report recommends must be investigated relative to the integrity of the system, have not produced any response that we know of..." [[x]]
The Report also documented that the judges of the Los Angeles Court objected to the release of the Rampart-FIPs, since it would cause “collapse of the justice system”.
· In 2008, highly decorated FBI-veteran issued an opinion letter regarding conduct of the court, recommending: [[xi]]
“investigation should be immediately instituted”.
· Moreover, the same FBI veteran documented that FBI agreed with him on the matter, but refused to take action, because of the widespread corruption of the California judges underlying the case. [[xii]]
· In 2008 (?), under the Bush administration the Public Corruption and Civil Rights Unit in the US Attorney’s office was dismantled.
· From March 2009 to September 2010, former US prosecutor Richard Fine was held in solitary confinement in Los Angeles County, after exposing the taking by all judges of the Court of “not permitted” payments, described by media as “bribes”. No warrant was ever issued for his arrest, and not judgment or sentencing were ever entered in his case. Instead, he was held under false and deliberately misleading records, stating that he was arrested on location and by authority of the non-existent “Municipal Court of San Pedro”. [[xiii]]
· In 2009, exposure of the “bribes” required the signing of dubious “retroactive immunities” (called by media “pardons”) to all such judges.
· In 2010, the Public Corruption and Civil Rights Unit in the US Attorney’s office was re-established, under pressure from Senator Dianne Feinstein, according to media reports.
· In 2010, based on review of the evidence, the Human Rights Council Staff Report referred to: [[xiv]]
“Corruption of the courts and the legal profession and discrimination by law enforcement in California."
· Following the reestablishment of the Public Corruption and Civil Rights Unit, numerous complaints have been filed with the US Attorney’s office, documenting racketeering by judges, attorneys and others. The office of Mr Birotte has failed to respond. There is no evidence that the complaints have ever been logged as such, investigated, or acted upon in any way whatsoever. [[xv]]
A call for action by the United States Congress
The request called upon the US Congress to perform its duties in view of corruption of the Los Angeles Superior Court, and conditions in the County amount to a Human Rights disgrace of historic proportions.
The request noted:
· The duties and obligations of the US government in international law and as follow up on the 2010 UPR (Universal Periodic Review) of Human Rights in the United States by the United Nations, and
· The central role of corruption of the justice system in the current financial/ economic crisis.
The request was copied to the United Nations Human Rights Council and the US State Department, UPR office.
