[00:09.000 --> 00:14.200] I'm Brian Hagan with your Liberty Beat for Thursday, February 12, 2015. [00:14.200 --> 00:22.320] Gold is trading at $1,222, silver at $16.82, and Bitcoin is trading around $218.29.

[00:39.760 --> 00:43.440] With civil unrest occurring all across the country, being food secure has never been [00:43.440 --> 00:44.440] more important. [00:44.440 --> 00:51.560] Visit eFoodsDirect.com slash Liberty Beat or call 800-620-5520 to learn more about food [00:51.560 --> 00:54.080] security in a time of crisis. [00:54.080 --> 00:58.760] In the news, the Associated Press is reporting that President Barack Obama has asked Congress [00:58.760 --> 01:03.920] to formally authorize the use of military force against the Islamic State. [01:03.920 --> 01:09.200] President Obama offered a draft resolution stating the Islamic State poses a great threat. [01:09.200 --> 01:13.200] Obama's three-page resolution calling for military force was obtained by the AP early [01:13.200 --> 01:14.640] Wednesday morning. [01:14.640 --> 01:18.540] The resolution would limit the war to three years with no limitations on where the U.S. [01:18.540 --> 01:21.200] military could chase the apparent terror threat. [01:21.200 --> 01:25.480] The language of the bill does not make it clear if ground troops are a possibility. [01:25.480 --> 01:32.640] However, it bans enduring offensive combat operations. [01:32.640 --> 01:37.080] Controversy continues in the September 11 trial as a former CIA linguist working as [01:37.080 --> 01:42.000] a translator for one of the alleged 9-11 planners was revealed to have worked at a secret CIA [01:42.000 --> 01:43.000] prison. [01:43.000 --> 01:46.720] Defense lawyers for the accused have asked the judge to hold off on a planned pretrial [01:46.720 --> 01:51.680] hearing and to perform an investigation and background checks on staff. [01:51.680 --> 01:56.880] Defense attorney Cheryl Borman said the incident decimated any trust on the defense team. [01:56.880 --> 02:01.840] Judge Army Colonel James Pohl will question the prosecution about why the former CIA linguist [02:01.840 --> 02:03.920] was working for the defense team. [02:03.920 --> 02:07.920] The accused said they recognized the man from their years in secret prisons. [02:07.920 --> 02:12.300] The trial has been plagued with accusations of spying on the defense team and infiltration [02:12.300 --> 02:13.300] by the government.

[03:35.920 --> 04:03.440] Okay, howdy, howdy, the Bad Boys are back with Andy Kelton, Debra Stevens, and Bad Goyles. [04:03.440 --> 04:13.520] On this Thursday, February the 12th, 2015, and we're going to have the phones open all [04:13.520 --> 04:18.280] night, so we'll take your calls anytime. [04:18.280 --> 04:22.400] I'm going to start out talking about the fundraiser. [04:22.400 --> 04:29.720] We've only got a short time left on the fundraiser, and we're still about $1,500 behind, so we [04:29.720 --> 04:36.360] would greatly appreciate any help we can get, and go to Logos Radio Network, and if you [04:36.360 --> 04:45.840] buy Andy's seminar, you get, Dev, how many is that, 20, or is it 10, 10 in the drawing [04:45.840 --> 04:56.760] for the Glock 42 380 pistol and the Magic Mud, and go to Logos Radio Network and look [04:56.760 --> 05:06.840] at our sponsors, and if they have anything you could use, if you will patronize our sponsors, [05:06.840 --> 05:09.920] it will help us support this radio network. [05:09.920 --> 05:16.360] Okay, I'm going to start out talking about mortgage. [05:16.360 --> 05:25.320] Now Steve and I do mortgage on Friday, but there's one thing that we haven't done. [05:25.320 --> 05:33.640] We talk about all these different things you can do, but we never have given a synopsis, [05:33.640 --> 05:36.240] and it turns out there's a whole lot of things we can do. [05:36.240 --> 05:40.080] I had someone ask me the other day, well, what do you do? [05:40.080 --> 05:47.280] And I didn't know where to start telling him, because there are so many things you can do [05:47.280 --> 05:50.600] to gain advantage with your mortgage. [05:50.600 --> 06:01.360] Now what we haven't been able to consistently do is win the big fight, and frankly it was [06:01.360 --> 06:09.560] a little, I was annoyed with myself that I got caught up in the patriot fight. [06:09.560 --> 06:16.000] You know, we're legal reformists and we're fighting for justice, and that thing of fighting [06:16.000 --> 06:23.640] with these people got stuck in my head, and it took a long time for me to look around [06:23.640 --> 06:35.320] that and ask myself, is there some other way of doing this besides fighting? [06:35.320 --> 06:44.360] And once I got past my own limitations so that I could look at that, it turns out there's [06:44.360 --> 06:51.240] a lot of options, alternative to fighting with the banks. [06:51.240 --> 06:58.520] And I realized the position that the banks are the bad guys, they're the money changers, [06:58.520 --> 07:04.360] they're robbing from us, and by gosh, we need to fix that, well, maybe. [07:04.360 --> 07:10.920] We need to do what we can, but first we need to take care of business. [07:10.920 --> 07:16.160] There have been, we've helped over 600 people file federal lawsuits, and in the end, only [07:16.160 --> 07:19.000] a very few of them actually won. [07:19.000 --> 07:24.880] Granted, people got to stay in their houses a long time, and since that was the only thing [07:24.880 --> 07:34.680] we knew we could do, we considered those wins, but for the most part, what people consider [07:34.680 --> 07:41.760] as a win is you get everything for free and they got nothing. [07:41.760 --> 07:44.920] And for the most part, that is an unreasonable win. [07:44.920 --> 07:52.800] Even if the bank has defrauded you, they haven't defrauded you of the entire amount of mortgage. [07:52.800 --> 08:01.880] So we backed up, took a different look, and decided to see what else we can do. [08:01.880 --> 08:07.640] I'm just going to quickly run down through these. [08:07.640 --> 08:09.760] We haven't talked about this one much. [08:09.760 --> 08:14.240] There's the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency Lookback Program. [08:14.240 --> 08:24.440] If you were foreclosed on between January 1st, 2009, December 31st, 2010, in that two-year [08:24.440 --> 08:34.920] period, if you get out all your closing documents and look real close at them, and then look [08:34.920 --> 08:40.000] at all of the things the bank did, go to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency [08:40.000 --> 08:45.880] and look up their look-back program, they have a printout that lists all of the things [08:45.880 --> 08:53.680] you can be paid a penalty for, penalty as opposed to a fine or a fee. [08:53.680 --> 08:59.320] For instance, if you were foreclosed on while you were in the military and your property [08:59.320 --> 09:09.120] was sold, regardless of any other remedy you may have, if this occurred between January [09:09.120 --> 09:21.040] 1st, 2009, December 31st, 2010, then you get $15,000 as a penalty from the lender if they [09:21.040 --> 09:24.360] can return your house to you. [09:24.360 --> 09:28.000] If they can't, it's already been sold off and some other person's bought it in good [09:28.000 --> 09:32.160] faith, you get $125,000. [09:32.160 --> 09:39.400] It lists a whole bunch of things that you can claim a penalty from them. [09:39.400 --> 09:40.400] They have to pay the penalty. [09:40.400 --> 09:43.360] If they want to fight it, they can fight it later. [09:43.360 --> 09:49.280] They've had the banks hire independent auditors to determine what you should get back. [09:49.280 --> 09:53.920] I certainly don't trust the independent auditor, you should do your own audit first, but that's [09:53.920 --> 09:57.960] one program to look at, the OCC look-back program. [09:57.960 --> 10:01.920] Then there's rescission. [10:01.920 --> 10:08.680] Within three days of signing the original note, you can rescind the whole contract out [10:08.680 --> 10:11.560] of hand for no reason. [10:11.560 --> 10:19.000] Within three years, you can rescind the contract if you find more than $35 false fees charged [10:19.000 --> 10:25.440] to closing or charged to you after that. [10:25.440 --> 10:29.520] If you're foreclosed on, the right to rescind renews. [10:29.520 --> 10:36.520] When they send you a notice of default and intent to foreclose, that renews your right [10:36.520 --> 10:43.120] to rescind if you can find an accounting error of over $35. [10:43.120 --> 10:46.040] You can do that standing on your head. [10:46.040 --> 10:53.480] In being at closing, the lender failed to provide documentation to show that the fees [10:53.480 --> 10:57.200] charged on the HUD 1 settlement statement were not otherwise forbidden to be charged [10:57.200 --> 11:05.640] by law because the lender may not charge you those amounts that are the normal part of [11:05.640 --> 11:07.520] doing business. [11:07.520 --> 11:12.400] Those amounts were intended to be taken out of the finance charge, the interest that they [11:12.400 --> 11:13.400] charge you. [11:13.400 --> 11:18.360] Instead of that, they add them to the front of the note and charge interest on them for [11:18.360 --> 11:19.360] 30 years. [11:19.360 --> 11:25.640] Since they didn't qualify any of the charges by providing documentation to show that they [11:25.640 --> 11:32.600] weren't forbidden to be charged or that they were for services actually rendered, that [11:32.600 --> 11:39.440] the vendor was a bona fide vendor and not a front company from one of your future years, [11:39.440 --> 11:44.900] that the service was necessary, the amounts charged were reasonable, and the lender did [11:44.900 --> 11:47.480] not take an undisclosed markup on the amounts charged. [11:47.480 --> 11:50.920] This is all out of the Truth in Lending Act. [11:50.920 --> 11:52.840] They didn't provide any of that. [11:52.840 --> 11:56.880] Your presumption is everything that was charged on the HUD 1 settlement statement on page [11:56.880 --> 12:02.440] 2 was fraudulent, every bit of it. [12:02.440 --> 12:08.680] Take the last number off your HUD 1 settlement statement, line 1400. [12:08.680 --> 12:13.720] If there's a column A and a column B, there's a seller column, a buyer column, add them [12:13.720 --> 12:17.320] both up because the seller doesn't really pay anything. [12:17.320 --> 12:22.200] Anything the seller pays, he adds to the selling principle. [12:22.200 --> 12:26.040] You effectively pay it all, so add them both together. [12:26.040 --> 12:29.040] Take an amortization of the property. [12:29.040 --> 12:35.480] You want one that does an amortization on a spreadsheet. [12:35.480 --> 12:44.440] Plug into the first payment, an overpayment of the amount from line 14 of the HUD 1, and [12:44.440 --> 12:49.560] then take a look at your, generally, 360 payments. [12:49.560 --> 12:55.120] You go all the way to the last payment, and you will find a negative number there. [12:55.120 --> 12:57.520] That means you've overpaid the note. [12:57.520 --> 13:02.520] You will be surprised how large that negative number is. [13:02.520 --> 13:11.440] That's the number you claim is an overpayment. [13:11.440 --> 13:19.600] Leveraged buyouts, these are one of the things we've worked out is you can gain leverage [13:19.600 --> 13:31.060] against the lender because after 2000, the banks instituted a new whiz-bang scheme to [13:31.060 --> 13:35.800] make lots of money, this securitization scheme. [13:35.800 --> 13:43.240] They had these long-term notes during the 30 years, and they had these retirement funds [13:43.240 --> 13:45.640] that were looking for long-term investment. [13:45.640 --> 13:48.880] This appeared to be a perfect marriage. [13:48.880 --> 13:53.960] You take the long-term mortgage and convert it into a security, and you sell it to these [13:53.960 --> 13:55.840] investment firms. [13:55.840 --> 14:04.200] Well, problem, unlike other securities, real property mortgages have reporting requirements [14:04.200 --> 14:11.120] that the other kinds of investments do not, and those reporting requirements would have [14:11.120 --> 14:18.120] made the scheme not work, so the banks really screwed up the reporting requirements. [14:18.120 --> 14:25.760] First place you should look if you're considering doing something with your mortgage is go to [14:25.760 --> 14:31.480] the county recorder and do a search on your property. [14:31.480 --> 14:36.360] Actually, I'd like to have the clerk do the search. [14:36.360 --> 14:41.520] You give them your name, you give them the property address, and ask the clerk to do [14:41.520 --> 14:46.760] a search on that property. [14:46.760 --> 14:56.680] Get a copy of the actual search, because now you have what the clerk can find and what [14:56.680 --> 15:05.920] the law says, 13.001 Texas Property Code, a claim against real property, and this is [15:05.920 --> 15:13.080] what the law says in Texas, and most every state has a similar statute, because without [15:13.080 --> 15:20.640] it there'd be no purpose for a county recorder, and while the banks will say there is no statutory [15:20.640 --> 15:26.320] requirement to make this filing, and that's true in every state except Pennsylvania that [15:26.320 --> 15:33.320] I know of, it's absolutely voluntary, but what the code says, any claim against real [15:33.320 --> 15:42.080] property, not properly acknowledged or proven, acknowledges, notary, proven as two witnesses, [15:42.080 --> 15:48.680] and filed in the public record is void as to the holder, so it doesn't make any difference [15:48.680 --> 15:51.680] what you hold. [15:51.680 --> 16:00.360] If it's not properly filed in the public record, you can't enforce it, and properly, that means [16:00.360 --> 16:16.400] a complete chain of title, because Texas Government Code 51901C states that any document filed [16:16.400 --> 16:27.280] in the public record where there is no document giving the filer authority to make filings [16:27.280 --> 16:35.680] against the title of real property is presumed to be fraudulent. [16:35.680 --> 16:41.040] That makes a requirement that there be a complete chain of title in the record. [16:41.040 --> 16:46.200] Hang on, Randy Kelton, Debra Stevens, the rule of law radio, Jeff, I see you there, [16:46.200 --> 16:49.920] I'll finish this up quickly on the other side, then I'll go to you.

[17:06.700 --> 17:11.440] People feed their pets better than they feed themselves, and it's time we changed all that. [17:11.440 --> 17:17.720] Our primary defense against aging and disease in this toxic environment is good nutrition. [17:17.720 --> 17:23.480] In a world where natural foods have been irradiated, adulterated, and mutilated, young Jevity can [17:23.480 --> 17:28.560] provide the nutrients you need, Logos Radio Network gets many requests to endorse all [17:28.560 --> 17:31.680] sorts of products, most of which we reject.

[19:30.800 --> 19:33.760] Randy Kelton, Deborah Stevens, Rule of Law Radio in New York. [19:33.760 --> 19:37.760] When we went out, we were talking about listening to the public record. [19:37.760 --> 19:44.920] That is the single most fertile place to find claims against the lender. [19:44.920 --> 19:53.040] Now in the end, we are almost always going to lose the suit no matter what it is. [19:53.040 --> 19:59.920] The courts are simply bought and paid for, and they are going to rule against us. [19:59.920 --> 20:07.840] However, especially if you are pro se, it takes you a little time and annoyance to prepare [20:07.840 --> 20:13.200] these documents, and you have to go on the internet and do a little plagiarizing. [20:13.200 --> 20:18.680] Like the bank, they have lawyers, and their lawyers are costing them on the average of [20:18.680 --> 20:22.000] $600 an hour. [20:22.000 --> 20:25.360] In the end, it is all about the money. [20:25.360 --> 20:28.360] All the bank cares about is the money. [20:28.360 --> 20:30.600] They do not care about winning or losing the lawsuit. [20:30.600 --> 20:33.200] They care about the money. [20:33.200 --> 20:40.680] When they come to court and win in court, they lose. [20:40.680 --> 20:48.000] What we are now using these claims for is as a bargaining tool, as a leverage, to go [20:48.000 --> 20:55.360] to the bank and give the bank a reason to come to the table and make a deal we can all [20:55.360 --> 21:01.040] live with, and it has been my experience that they all want to make a deal. [21:01.040 --> 21:07.240] It is a little hard to get them to deal with the borrower, but if you can get a lawyer [21:07.240 --> 21:18.440] to step in between or a quick claim to somebody else that the bank will perceive as a professional, [21:18.440 --> 21:20.840] then they will deal with you. [21:20.840 --> 21:24.560] You do a calculation. [21:24.560 --> 21:34.440] You put in the month of the note, the year of the note, and in an Excel spreadsheet, [21:34.440 --> 21:37.920] there is a function called cumulative principal. [21:37.920 --> 21:44.840] The cumulative principal function, you put in the month, the date, the interest rate, [21:44.840 --> 21:50.760] and the number of payments to date, and that is easy enough to calculate, and it will tell [21:50.760 --> 21:54.840] you how far down you have paid the principal. [21:54.840 --> 22:00.760] Then take that function and subtract it from the original principal, and that will tell [22:00.760 --> 22:04.200] you how much skin the bank has got left in the game. [22:04.200 --> 22:11.920] Now if you want to give them a number that their bean counters can base a decision on, [22:11.920 --> 22:13.480] that is a good one. [22:13.480 --> 22:18.880] This is what you have got left in the property. [22:18.880 --> 22:22.760] You have that in the property, but you screwed up the public record. [22:22.760 --> 22:26.040] The public record is broken, and you cannot fix it. [22:26.040 --> 22:29.120] For the most part, what they mess up in the record is broken. [22:29.120 --> 22:35.280] For instance, one of the more common things I see is the mortgage company issues the mortgage, [22:35.280 --> 22:40.440] goes out of business, and then MERS comes along and does an assignment of the security [22:40.440 --> 22:43.360] instrument from the original lender to somebody else. [22:43.360 --> 22:46.880] Whoa, whoa, hold on, guys. [22:46.880 --> 22:55.320] The original lender was a person under law, and that person died, and when he died, he [22:55.320 --> 23:04.680] hadn't transferred the security instrument, the lien, so the claim died with him. [23:04.680 --> 23:06.200] You guys can't fix that. [23:06.200 --> 23:08.120] That's broken. [23:08.120 --> 23:13.520] Or where they have this second company has then appointed a substitute trustee, well, [23:13.520 --> 23:16.760] if that company never got a proper assignment in the first place, the trustee couldn't get [23:16.760 --> 23:18.360] a proper assignment. [23:18.360 --> 23:23.920] Or they've sold the property, and the trustee who sold the property is not listed anywhere [23:23.920 --> 23:27.160] in the records as being appointed substitute trustee. [23:27.160 --> 23:32.240] These are things I find all the time, and they're all sudden deaths, and they're all [23:32.240 --> 23:33.800] things they can undo. [23:33.800 --> 23:38.160] If they've already done the foreclosure, that bell's been rung. [23:38.160 --> 23:46.040] They can't unring it, but I can, because I can come to them with a release of claim. [23:46.040 --> 23:53.520] They've got this release of claim that'll fix all these title problems you guys created, [23:53.520 --> 24:00.280] and I'll sell it to you, making a deal, if you're trying to do a short sale. [24:00.280 --> 24:05.720] And the bank is pretending to negotiate for a short sale while they're double tracking [24:05.720 --> 24:10.680] running the foreclosure in the background, or they're doing a modification running the [24:10.680 --> 24:13.180] foreclosure in the background. [24:13.180 --> 24:18.480] They don't have an incentive to do a short sale or to give you a modification. [24:18.480 --> 24:22.160] They have an incentive to make it look like they are, because they get paid for that from [24:22.160 --> 24:24.520] the HART program. [24:24.520 --> 24:28.720] So they make it look like they are, so they can collect that money while they're foreclosing [24:28.720 --> 24:29.720] in the background. [24:29.720 --> 24:35.080] So go through the public record. [24:35.080 --> 24:37.120] Look for gaps in chain of title. [24:37.120 --> 24:42.640] If you don't find gaps in chain of title, then you might want to go get a securities [24:42.640 --> 24:52.120] audit to see where the property has been transferred to by government records, and then compare [24:52.120 --> 25:03.040] what you find in the Security Exchange Commission and other places, you find entities that aren't [25:03.040 --> 25:06.360] listed in the public record. [25:06.360 --> 25:14.280] So this raises an issue of fact as concerns the security instrument, the contract. [25:14.280 --> 25:20.480] When you look at the public record, you look for violations of the contract. [25:20.480 --> 25:32.120] Read that deed of trust, especially read Covenant 16, the Governing Law and Severability Clause. [25:32.120 --> 25:38.760] If it's an FHA law and it's sometimes 15, sometimes 14, it's right in there, the Governing [25:38.760 --> 25:47.280] Law and Severability Clause, that means if something doesn't apply, it can be severed. [25:47.280 --> 25:54.040] That one contains an agreement that both parties will abide by all relevant law. [25:54.040 --> 26:01.880] So you look for places where the lender has violated relevant law by failing to make a [26:01.880 --> 26:10.800] filing giving notice of a change in the principal interest in the note. [26:10.800 --> 26:13.880] That's required to be filed in the public record. [26:13.880 --> 26:21.000] If it doesn't, people have been going in making the claim under the Truth in Lending Act, [26:21.000 --> 26:23.480] the Real Estate Seven Procedures Act. [26:23.480 --> 26:29.780] And we're saying, no, no, no, no, don't do that because the government, your Congress [26:29.780 --> 26:36.760] put those consumer protection laws in place and then set the statute of limitations for [26:36.760 --> 26:42.800] exercising the remedy so short as to make it essentially worthless. [26:42.800 --> 26:49.160] So by the time you figure out that they did this wrong, it's too late to exercise the [26:49.160 --> 26:50.160] remedy. [26:50.160 --> 26:59.120] However, it is a law relating to the contract and you don't need the remedy provided by [26:59.120 --> 27:00.640] the legislature. [27:00.640 --> 27:04.920] You got your own breach of contract. [27:04.920 --> 27:10.120] It's not that you'll win breach of contract, but you'll cost them a lot of money fighting [27:10.120 --> 27:14.960] it and we are getting, the courts are beginning to move more in our favor, we're getting more [27:14.960 --> 27:16.240] rulings in our favor. [27:16.240 --> 27:23.120] Now they're beginning to prosecute these bank officials for filing these fraudulent documents [27:23.120 --> 27:24.680] in the record. [27:24.680 --> 27:28.060] So you're getting a lot more leverage. [27:28.060 --> 27:30.680] Now you go for a short sale. [27:30.680 --> 27:35.800] Instead of going to the bank with your hat in your hand, now you get to go to them with [27:35.800 --> 27:38.320] your boot up there behind. [27:38.320 --> 27:42.720] Now they've got a reason to come to the table. [27:42.720 --> 27:52.160] We are, I'm through a second set almost and I don't want to run out of time here. [27:52.160 --> 27:53.160] Excuse me. [27:53.160 --> 27:56.560] I'm going to take Jeff before we go any further. [27:56.560 --> 27:57.560] Hello, Jeff. [27:57.560 --> 27:59.360] What do you have for us? [27:59.360 --> 28:00.840] Hey, Randy. [28:00.840 --> 28:05.200] Thanks for having me on the show. [28:05.200 --> 28:11.960] And I finally got my hearing, the hearing that had been postponed. [28:11.960 --> 28:14.360] What was the nature of the hearing? [28:14.360 --> 28:15.360] Okay. [28:15.360 --> 28:20.400] Well, originally I was scheduled to have a motion hearing. [28:20.400 --> 28:27.480] And then my trial, this hearing was a hearing for my attorney to withdraw. [28:27.480 --> 28:30.840] So I never got to have my motion hearing. [28:30.840 --> 28:33.440] You there? [28:33.440 --> 28:35.520] Yeah, I'm here. [28:35.520 --> 28:37.560] How'd it go? [28:37.560 --> 28:38.560] Okay. [28:38.560 --> 28:40.480] So that was kind of confusing. [28:40.480 --> 28:42.240] I really wasn't expecting that. [28:42.240 --> 28:48.160] And I don't have the experience to be able to catch a fastball yet. [28:48.160 --> 28:50.840] But it was very, very interesting. [28:50.840 --> 28:56.720] If you several months ago, I got arrested when I went to the courthouse without a warrant, [28:56.720 --> 28:58.320] without a bond. [28:58.320 --> 29:04.600] This is after I won my appeal or the decision and it was remanded back to the court. [29:04.600 --> 29:10.560] They arrested me and then my attorney had claimed that they wanted to rewrite my bond. [29:10.560 --> 29:12.720] But there was never a court order. [29:12.720 --> 29:18.320] So after I got arrested, I sent her an email asking her, why did you have me arrested? [29:18.320 --> 29:23.800] And she said, oh, she said that she didn't arrest me, that the judge had arrested me [29:23.800 --> 29:28.280] and was going to hold me without bond for three months. [29:28.280 --> 29:33.320] Now this is after I've already done my prison and my parole, everything, all my obligations [29:33.320 --> 29:34.320] are fulfilled. [29:34.320 --> 29:35.320] I won the appeal decision. [29:35.320 --> 29:36.320] Are we coming up to break here? [29:36.320 --> 29:37.320] Yeah, we're coming up to break. [29:37.320 --> 29:38.320] We'll pick this up when we come back. [29:38.320 --> 29:39.320] This is Randy Kelton, Deborah Stevens, Rule of Law Radio. [29:39.320 --> 29:40.320] Our call is number 512-646-1984. [29:40.320 --> 29:41.320] So give us a call. [29:41.320 --> 29:42.320] We'll be taking the calls all night. [29:42.320 --> 30:11.400] We'll be right back. [30:11.400 --> 30:40.760] We'll be right back. [30:40.760 --> 31:10.120] We'll be right back. [31:10.120 --> 31:32.760] We'll be right back. [31:32.760 --> 31:52.240] We'll be right back. [31:52.240 --> 32:12.600] We're going to have to stand and defend our own rights. [32:12.600 --> 32:33.960] We're going to have to stand and defend our own rights. [32:33.960 --> 32:42.360] We're going to have to stand and defend our own rights. [32:42.360 --> 33:02.920] We're going to have to stand and defend our own rights. [33:02.920 --> 33:30.440] We're going to have to stand and defend our own rights. [33:30.440 --> 33:58.240] We're going to have to stand and defend our own rights. [33:58.240 --> 34:22.800] We're going to have to stand and defend our own rights. [34:22.800 --> 34:36.320] We're going to have to stand and defend our own rights. [34:36.320 --> 34:50.320] We're going to have to stand and defend our own rights. [34:50.320 --> 35:01.720] We're going to have to stand and defend our own rights. [35:01.720 --> 35:11.600] We're going to have to stand and defend our own rights. [35:11.600 --> 35:18.680] We're going to have to stand and defend our own rights. [35:18.680 --> 35:24.160] didn't seem to worry him at all. His, you know, his eyebrows didn't raise or anything. [35:24.160 --> 35:27.080] I thought he was going to get furious with her. And I was. [35:27.080 --> 35:32.920] He already knew about it because you had told him about it before. The last time you were [35:32.920 --> 35:33.920] there. [35:33.920 --> 35:39.360] No, I haven't gotten in front of him since July, since I had another. [35:39.360 --> 35:50.280] You said that you mentioned it in court and the lawyer kind of had a meltdown. [35:50.280 --> 35:55.160] That's what just happened here. It's for the same hearing. [35:55.160 --> 36:00.600] Oh, okay. Go ahead. I'll stop interrupting. [36:00.600 --> 36:07.880] It hasn't happened before. And yeah, the attorney had a meltdown. She actually wound up attacking [36:07.880 --> 36:15.280] him claiming that he had violated the rules. And have I already said that on the show already? [36:15.280 --> 36:23.320] I think you either did or you told me in an email, but go ahead and do it again. It was [36:23.320 --> 36:24.320] good. [36:24.320 --> 36:31.880] Well, am I? Okay. I did tell you in an email. She flips out, comes unraveled and accuses [36:31.880 --> 36:38.240] the judge of violating the rules. And he said, well, would you like to read the rule that [36:38.240 --> 36:43.520] I'm violating? And she was so stressed out. She couldn't read. So she slapped her head [36:43.520 --> 36:49.400] with her hand and said, judge, I just can't read. And by that time, he was kind of looking [36:49.400 --> 36:58.840] angrily at her. However, where they got me because she put on such of a show of coming [36:58.840 --> 37:05.480] unraveled and I was enjoying it so much because it went on for about 20 minutes. She kept [37:05.480 --> 37:11.960] making remarks about me not meeting her, which really was never an issue. And I couldn't [37:11.960 --> 37:17.000] quite figure out what was going on because I had raised the issue that she's not getting [37:17.000 --> 37:24.120] my paperwork and that she's not showing up for hearings in which they cancel them without [37:24.120 --> 37:28.280] me knowing it. But then she says that I'm supposed to go by and meet her. And it kind [37:28.280 --> 37:34.840] of doesn't make sense. And it gets by me at the end of the hearing. He does not allow [37:34.840 --> 37:46.000] her to withdraw. He forces her to stay with me as a shadow counsel. And so I'm, I'm supposed [37:46.000 --> 37:54.200] to, he did, he basically said, Mr. Hill, you can represent yourself if you want. And because [37:54.200 --> 38:02.840] she has been sneaking all these continuances in on me, I went ahead and accepted to be [38:02.840 --> 38:06.280] my own counsel on. [38:06.280 --> 38:11.920] Okay. So the, the trick about that is, is you can change your mind anytime you want [38:11.920 --> 38:22.520] to. Oh, good. Okay. Now you can get all your emotions in and then go back to counsel. [38:22.520 --> 38:29.920] Well, and I found out, which I did not know this, that all these continuances were initiated [38:29.920 --> 38:37.600] by her. And she had been going behind my back and filling out motions and not notifying [38:37.600 --> 38:44.160] me. And then after the continuance, I get a copy like 10 days later and she's the one [38:44.160 --> 38:47.360] that writes down the request. [38:47.360 --> 38:55.360] And she's almost certainly been coached to do that by the court. Okay. So now that I'm [38:55.360 --> 39:00.480] my own attorney, if they want to postpone it, which I know they're going to try, they're [39:00.480 --> 39:07.480] going to do that. They have to go through me first, right? Yep. Okay. Now you're, you're [39:07.480 --> 39:17.760] lead counsel now, but I suggest in the process, you sue your attorney for malpractice. And [39:17.760 --> 39:26.360] I plan on doing that and she's stuck. Okay, good. And what she's going to say, she's going [39:26.360 --> 39:32.240] to go back and say, well, he sued me now there's conflict of interest. He says, no, it's not [39:32.240 --> 39:38.280] fair. She's under contract to give me proper representation. And I expect her to give me [39:38.280 --> 39:46.680] proper representation. She doesn't get to run away just because I make her do her job. [39:46.680 --> 39:51.440] Get her in here, make her do her job. You want to put her in a position to where the [39:51.440 --> 40:01.680] court has to protect her from you. Okay. This is, this is the politics. This is how we win [40:01.680 --> 40:09.760] them. Debra was on last week and she talked about guy winning the case just that way. [40:09.760 --> 40:14.880] My last case in Austin, that's exactly how I wanted the judge dismissed the case to protect [40:14.880 --> 40:20.960] my lawyer from me. So you absolutely don't want this lawyer off the hook. She's gave [40:20.960 --> 40:28.560] you all kinds of great stuff. Yeah. So you can take her behind with, and now when she [40:28.560 --> 40:35.800] sees the gavel about to fall on her, now she may be motivated to get up and do her job [40:35.800 --> 40:44.720] and have plausible deniability when she does it. Okay. It's certainly not going to be what [40:44.720 --> 40:53.160] they expect. Make, make sure now that you have all of the documentation in place that [40:53.160 --> 41:00.200] you want. And since she's shadow counsel, she has to stay up to date and I'd put her [41:00.200 --> 41:07.840] right back on that die. Go back to the court, tell the court, this is way too complex. The [41:07.840 --> 41:16.200] last time I got improperly convicted, this time I don't want to make those mistakes. [41:16.200 --> 41:24.720] I need learned counsel and she can do this job. She just hasn't wanted to for whatever [41:24.720 --> 41:33.480] reason, but she needs to do this job. And you might give her a tort letter telling her [41:33.480 --> 41:42.360] that because of her inadequate representation, she has cost you all this time and all these [41:42.360 --> 41:48.320] times you come down there and spend all, spend all this time and it was her getting the continuances, [41:48.320 --> 41:57.200] you should bill her for you, for your cost and time and sting her good, give her a good [41:57.200 --> 42:04.600] billing. She's going to have a fit about that. And that's going, that alone will tell her [42:04.600 --> 42:10.160] that you're preparing to sue her and do a malpractice suit to get all this money back. [42:10.160 --> 42:15.240] Okay. And she's almost certainly going to go to the judge and tell the judge, you got [42:15.240 --> 42:27.880] to help me out here. Okay. So do you have a hearing set for the trial proper? Yes. The [42:27.880 --> 42:39.600] hearing is set for April 16th and the trial is set for April 27th. What is the hearing? [42:39.600 --> 42:47.960] The hearing hearing. Oh, and all these motions you got. Okay. Yeah. April 16th. Do you don't [42:47.960 --> 42:56.600] have anything in between? No. Then you might make sure you've got your motions the way [42:56.600 --> 43:03.800] you want them. If you have one that's filed and you don't like the look of it, you can [43:03.800 --> 43:13.840] refile it as long as it's timely refiled before the hearing and then decide that this is too [43:13.840 --> 43:23.760] complex for you to adjudicate yourself, that you withdraw your agreement to represent yourself. [43:23.760 --> 43:30.920] Put that lawyer right back on that dime. The judge, the judge already bailed her out. Now [43:30.920 --> 43:38.160] we know what's going to happen is they'll continue the case once I do that. They're [43:38.160 --> 43:46.120] likely to do that anyway. Yeah. They do not want this coming to trial. Hang on, Randy [43:46.120 --> 43:54.200] Kelton's, Deborah Stevens, ruler of our radio. I call it number 512-646-1984. Give us a call.

[46:56.520 --> 47:03.520] And before we go back in, I've been working with my soap. I know once before I tried to [47:04.360 --> 47:08.440] give away a bunch of soap and I never did get any addresses. That never did work out [47:08.440 --> 47:14.760] so well. So I'm hoping maybe I can do better this time. From now to the end of the fund [47:14.760 --> 47:21.760] drive, anybody who donates $25 or more, I'll send them a bar of soap. Okay, this is not [47:21.760 --> 47:28.760] regular soap. This soap will not dissolve the oils out of your living tissue. If you [47:31.360 --> 47:38.360] use something on your skin that if you get it in your eye, it burns, you should not put [47:39.360 --> 47:46.360] it on your skin. Your eyes have nerves real close to the surface, so they're real sensitive. [47:46.360 --> 47:52.320] Your skin doesn't. If your skin was as sensitive as your eyes, you wouldn't be able to live [47:52.320 --> 47:58.920] in the world because everything would hurt you. The reason some things burn your eyes [47:58.920 --> 48:05.920] is because they're damaging the tissue. If you put a soap with any of the caustics, caustic [48:05.920 --> 48:11.920] soda, caustic potash, and there are several others, they will dissolve the oil out of [48:11.920 --> 48:18.680] your living tissue. That's why it hurts your eyes because it kills a layer of skin. All [48:18.680 --> 48:25.680] these women that sell cosmetics sell exfoliants. Well, you can't use an exfoliant on me. There's [48:27.440 --> 48:33.960] no dead skin because I don't kill a layer of skin every time I take a bath. And we have [48:33.960 --> 48:40.960] people with all of these skin cancers and anomalies. Well, if you force your skin to [48:40.960 --> 48:47.960] replace itself constantly, all that replication, you can expect some errors to occur. I'm [48:48.960 --> 48:55.960] 65 now. I've never had one of these pre-cancerous lesions, anything like that. I have no skin [48:57.560 --> 49:04.560] issues. And people look at my skin, they can't believe how good it looks. My skin shines [49:05.360 --> 49:09.360] and it's silky smooth to the touch. I give my soap to other people, it has exactly the [49:09.360 --> 49:16.360] same effect. So, I've also added colloidal silver to this one. So, it will act as an, [49:20.360 --> 49:26.600] well, I can't really say it will act as an antiseptic because I get all these soap guys [49:26.600 --> 49:33.600] hopping up and down and accusing me of making false claims. So, go on the internet and do [49:33.600 --> 49:40.600] a search for colloidal silver and they'll tell you what magic colloidal silver is. So, [49:42.160 --> 49:48.320] anybody who's doing these 25 bucks or more, for every 25 bucks I send you bar soap. And [49:48.320 --> 49:53.480] these are big bars of soap. One of these bars of soap will last about three or four months [49:53.480 --> 50:00.480] because there's no filler in this. You get the soap a little wet and just touch it with [50:00.480 --> 50:06.480] your hand and just run your fingers across it and that's almost enough to shampoo your [50:06.480 --> 50:13.480] hair with. I mean, it is, it's pure soap and no filler, no garbage. Anyway, that's my offer. [50:14.760 --> 50:21.760] And besides, I'd like a bunch of people that I don't know trying it out and giving me feedback [50:22.800 --> 50:29.320] so I can get some testimonials that are not tainted by people knowing me. [50:29.320 --> 50:36.320] Well, I'd like to give a testimonial that's tainted by knowing you. I can highly vouch [50:37.280 --> 50:41.640] for Randy's Soap and I'm not just saying that because of the fundraiser. I mean, I've been [50:41.640 --> 50:48.640] using Randy's Soap for years. Now, I don't use it for myself from my skin because I have [50:49.560 --> 50:56.560] some special girly soap for that, but it's fine. I mean, I use it on the sinks for like [50:56.560 --> 51:03.360] washing my hands and I use it for dishes and laundry and I get the liquid version before [51:03.360 --> 51:10.360] Randy, he makes it as the liquid before he condenses it into a solid for the bars. [51:11.440 --> 51:15.480] I prefer the liquid soap because it's less messy than having a bar, but the bars are [51:15.480 --> 51:22.040] great too. But at any rate, I can completely and totally vouch for the soap. It's probably [51:22.040 --> 51:28.960] the only soap I've ever used that doesn't cause my skin to itch after I've washed my [51:28.960 --> 51:35.960] clothes. You'll see a lot of so-called natural soaps and what not environmentally friendly [51:36.800 --> 51:43.800] soaps and soaps that are supposedly only made with vegetable oils, et cetera, et cetera, [51:44.320 --> 51:50.080] free of dyes and colors and these sorts of things. I've tried pretty much all that stuff. [51:50.080 --> 51:57.080] What I've found is that the stuff that is supposedly hypoallergenic that has quote unquote [51:58.000 --> 52:03.280] real soap in it, but it just doesn't have the dyes and the perfumes, that stuff is still [52:03.280 --> 52:07.720] makes my skin itch. I still don't like it. I don't like the way my clothes feel or smell [52:07.720 --> 52:14.440] or anything after. I can't use it. The stuff I've found that's supposedly all natural made [52:14.440 --> 52:20.320] from all vegetable oils, et cetera, et cetera, they don't work. I find that they don't really [52:20.320 --> 52:27.320] work for me. Those types of soaps don't really get my clothes or my sheets, et cetera, really [52:27.880 --> 52:34.880] that clean. I've just had to split the difference, so to speak, and just use very small amounts [52:34.880 --> 52:41.880] of the soaps that don't have the dyes and the colors and things like that. But ever [52:43.880 --> 52:47.880] since I started using Randy's soap, it's been no problem. It's like a lot of the clothes [52:47.880 --> 52:52.880] that I've washed, it's like the colors come back brighter. I'm like, wow, I thought that [52:52.880 --> 52:58.880] these colors were so dull that the clothes are just worn out over time or whatever. It's [52:58.880 --> 53:05.880] just because there was soap residue in the fabric that just never really rinsed clean. [53:06.880 --> 53:12.320] So I've actually been able to recover the quality of a lot of my clothes and sheets [53:12.320 --> 53:15.880] and everything through Randy's soap. I know this may sound kind of sensational, but it [53:15.880 --> 53:22.400] really is true. I really do vouch for Randy's soap. Besides, I kind of have an extortion [53:22.400 --> 53:27.400] thing going on with Randy right now because if he doesn't give me the soap, then I don't [53:27.400 --> 53:33.720] let him go on the air. No, I'm just kidding. It's like, keep the soap coming, Randy, or [53:33.720 --> 53:36.520] you're fired. I'm just kidding. [53:36.520 --> 53:42.760] The thing about this soap is I developed it when I was in the industrial cleaning business, [53:42.760 --> 53:49.760] and I developed it to clean really heavy buildup industrial applications. What I did since [53:49.760 --> 53:56.760] most of the guys in the business, they bought soap from different manufacturers. Since I [53:57.520 --> 54:04.520] manufactured by own, I made absolutely the best soap I could possibly make, and it turned [54:06.520 --> 54:13.520] out to be the best builder money can buy in Sudsy Bubbly. I've had soaps with as many [54:13.520 --> 54:20.520] as 15 products in it. You put this product in it to give you this advantage. Yeah, but [54:21.760 --> 54:25.640] it causes you this problem over here, so you've got to put this other one in to buffer the [54:25.640 --> 54:31.880] problem that one caused. Oh, it was a mess. I took the best builder money can buy, and [54:31.880 --> 54:34.320] actually I come across it by accident. [54:34.320 --> 54:38.960] We only got a few minutes left, Randy. Why don't you tell them about the two? It's only [54:38.960 --> 54:45.840] two ingredients really, and also just one other thing. I use it for applications like [54:45.840 --> 54:49.600] clothes and laundry and dishes and stuff, but I do wash my hands with it. I'm kind of [54:49.600 --> 54:55.240] a clean freak when it comes to washing my hands. I wash my hands a lot. This is the [54:55.240 --> 55:00.400] only soap that I can wash my hands with multiple, multiple times a day without it really drying [55:00.400 --> 55:03.880] my skin out and crackling my cuticles and stuff like that. [55:03.880 --> 55:10.880] Yeah, if you have little cracks on your elbows and cracks on the back of your heel, that's [55:11.440 --> 55:16.280] because you've got real sensitive skin, and the soaps with caustics in it are attacking [55:16.280 --> 55:23.000] them. She mentioned natural soaps. Years ago, when I was very little, one of my earliest [55:23.000 --> 55:29.160] memories is my mother had a cast iron kettle on a tripod out in the yard, and she's got [55:29.160 --> 55:36.160] a fire under it. She stirred it. It reminds me of these witches, but what that was is [55:37.880 --> 55:44.800] we grew tobacco, and in order to start the seedlings, we would burn down a plant bed. [55:44.800 --> 55:49.200] You throw a lot of wood on a pile and burn it down until you've got ashes about four [55:49.200 --> 55:56.200] inches thick. The tobacco needed to germinate in a real high potash environment, so we'd [55:56.200 --> 55:59.280] stick them in there. When they get up about eight or 10 inches high, you pull them out [55:59.280 --> 56:04.520] of there and go set them in the field. Well, then they would take that ash and mother dumped [56:04.520 --> 56:11.520] it into this big kettle and boiled it, and she'd dip out the clinkers and pieces of wood [56:13.560 --> 56:20.560] left over in carbon and boil it down to a thick liquid. Perfectly natural, but if you [56:21.160 --> 56:25.600] stick your finger in that thing, your fingernail is going to bounce off the bottom of that [56:25.600 --> 56:32.600] pot right now. That's caustic potash, and it is really, really bad news. Then she would [56:34.280 --> 56:41.280] take the hog lard that they saved from the hog killing and put it in there and boil it, [56:42.240 --> 56:49.240] and that makes lye soap. I don't want lye soap touching me. That is bad stuff, and it's [56:49.240 --> 56:56.240] all natural. Natural doesn't mean anything to me. Right outside my door, I've got a big, [56:58.600 --> 57:03.120] beautiful oleander plant. It's as natural as it can be, but if you put one of those leaves [57:03.120 --> 57:10.120] in your salad, it'll drop you like a stone. The soap I made has sodium tripolyphosphate. [57:10.880 --> 57:15.400] That is the best builder money can buy. A few years ago, there was a big uproar about [57:15.400 --> 57:20.000] phosphates. Phosphates were messing up the water treatment plants. You've got to get [57:20.000 --> 57:26.560] them out of there. Well, our moron government went on a tirade about getting rid of phosphates, [57:26.560 --> 57:33.560] and all of us guys who mixed products said, are you guys crazy? Do you know what's going [57:33.600 --> 57:38.560] to happen when you stop using phosphates in your soap? You've got all these other chemicals [57:38.560 --> 57:43.320] that's got all kinds of obnoxious problems with them, and you're going to have to use [57:43.320 --> 57:48.600] five times as much. You're going to flood the system with this other really horrible [57:48.600 --> 57:54.840] garbage, and that is exactly what happened. After about two or three years, all of this [57:54.840 --> 58:00.440] stuff about phosphates just stopped. The government never comes back and says, oh, you know, we'll [58:00.440 --> 58:06.440] get all that hoopla. We really screwed up. No, they just get real quiet and let it all [58:06.440 --> 58:13.440] go away. What's the other ingredient, quickly, Randy? It is a derivative of coconut oil. [58:14.440 --> 58:19.440] All right. Well, there you go, folks. Two ingredients. I totally vouch for it. It's [58:19.440 --> 58:24.440] great. I love it. Okay. Sorry, Jeff. We'll pick you up on the other side, and I'll actually [58:24.440 --> 58:30.440] give you some time when we get back. As long as you donate to Randy's Beer Fund. Okay. [58:30.440 --> 58:35.960] So, $25, folks, you get a bar of Randy's soap from now until the end of the fundraiser, and [58:35.960 --> 58:40.520] I will post a notice on the website to that effect. Thank you, Randy. One condition. One [58:40.520 --> 58:45.520] condition. They have to donate to the Beer Fund. I need feedback. I need feedback. He [58:45.520 --> 58:52.440] needs feedback. Feedback. Hang on. We'll be right back. The Bible remains the most popular [58:52.440 --> 58:57.520] book in the world, yet countless readers are frustrated because they struggle to understand [58:57.520 --> 59:03.940] it.

In the news, [01:00:54.960 --> 01:00:59.480] the Associated Press is reporting that President Barack Obama has asked Congress to formally [01:00:59.480 --> 01:01:04.560] authorize the use of military force against the Islamic State. President Obama offered [01:01:04.560 --> 01:01:10.320] a draft resolution stating the Islamic State poses a great threat. Obama's three-page resolution [01:01:10.320 --> 01:01:15.300] calling for military force was obtained by the AP early Wednesday morning. The resolution [01:01:15.300 --> 01:01:19.140] would limit the war to three years with no limitations on where the U.S. military could [01:01:19.140 --> 01:01:23.880] chase the apparent terror threat. The language of the bill does not make it clear if ground [01:01:23.880 --> 01:01:32.960] troops are a possibility. However, it bans enduring offensive combat operations. Controversy [01:01:32.960 --> 01:01:37.940] continues in the September 11 trial as a former CIA linguist working as a translator for one [01:01:37.940 --> 01:01:43.040] of the alleged 9-11 planners was revealed to have worked at a secret CIA prison. Defense [01:01:43.040 --> 01:01:47.400] lawyers for the accused have asked the judge to hold off on a planned pretrial hearing [01:01:47.400 --> 01:01:52.880] and to perform an investigation and background checks on staff. Defense attorney Cheryl Borman [01:01:52.880 --> 01:01:58.440] said the incident decimated any trust on the defense team. Judge Army Colonel James Pohl [01:01:58.440 --> 01:02:03.000] will question the prosecution about why the former CIA linguist was working for the defense [01:02:03.000 --> 01:02:08.180] team. The accused said they recognized a man from their years in secret prisons. The trial [01:02:08.180 --> 01:02:13.280] has been plagued with accusations of spying on the defense team and infiltration by the [01:02:13.280 --> 01:02:17.160] government.

[01:04:10.800 --> 01:04:22.640] Okay, we are back. Randy Carlton, Deborah Stevens. We're on our radio and we're talking [01:04:22.640 --> 01:04:27.240] to Jeff in Mississippi. Jeff, did you wash your hands today? [01:04:27.240 --> 01:04:29.800] I can't remember. [01:04:29.800 --> 01:04:30.800] Okay. [01:04:30.800 --> 01:04:37.280] Well, you know what? I've washed my hands of one thing, and that is, we can be sure [01:04:37.280 --> 01:04:41.000] of that. I've washed my hands of all attorneys. [01:04:41.000 --> 01:04:49.200] Well, now, wait a minute. You got to understand the position the lawyer is in. Right now, [01:04:49.200 --> 01:04:56.960] the lawyer has been more afraid of the judge than she is of you. I could almost assure [01:04:56.960 --> 01:05:03.400] you that the lawyer would like to be able to just go in there and do her job, but she [01:05:03.400 --> 01:05:10.400] knows if she just goes in there and does her job and gets this case thrown out, that judge [01:05:10.400 --> 01:05:14.520] is going to be embarrassed because he didn't do it right in the first place and you caught [01:05:14.520 --> 01:05:21.600] him on it. Then he comes in there and embarrasses the judge. She's going to have a problem. [01:05:21.600 --> 01:05:27.200] You're not her only client. She has to think about her business because she's a business [01:05:27.200 --> 01:05:34.160] woman first. She's got to make a living, pay back this student loan she's got. I had one [01:05:34.160 --> 01:05:40.600] lawyer just got his bar card and he said he has a mortgage payment and doesn't own a house [01:05:40.600 --> 01:05:50.480] with $180,000 student loan to pay off. So they got these lawyers in a spot. The best [01:05:50.480 --> 01:05:55.440] thing you can do is give your lawyer plausible deniability and she's right in a position [01:05:55.440 --> 01:06:04.160] to have it. The judge has got her in a spot where she's stuck between you and the judge [01:06:04.160 --> 01:06:10.760] and now you're becoming far more dangerous to her career than the judge is. Now she gets [01:06:10.760 --> 01:06:15.080] to go back to the judge and say, judge, you've got to get me out of this mess you got me [01:06:15.080 --> 01:06:24.520] into. This is how we beat a couple already. In the end, everything's political. You've [01:06:24.520 --> 01:06:36.080] done a good job of cranking up the politics. You beat them. I mean, you put the pressure [01:06:36.080 --> 01:06:40.640] on them, give them a hard time. You're just a pro se, but you have put them through the [01:06:40.640 --> 01:06:48.140] wringer and they pretty well know that they have tried everything they could to get you [01:06:48.140 --> 01:06:55.520] to go away and leave them alone and just give up and you haven't. And it always, it takes [01:06:55.520 --> 01:07:00.800] a while, but in the end they tend to turn on each other and that's what you've got [01:07:00.800 --> 01:07:08.600] happening now. Judge would not let her off the case. He don't want to let her off the [01:07:08.600 --> 01:07:17.560] case because he don't want to screw it anymore. His lawyer buddies, you know, he may be ticked [01:07:17.560 --> 01:07:22.520] off at her at the moment for blaming him. So he's going to force her to stay on the [01:07:22.520 --> 01:07:30.720] case and punish her, but he's only going to punish her so far. When you really become [01:07:30.720 --> 01:07:37.760] dangerous to her career, like when you give her a tort letter and since it was her that [01:07:37.760 --> 01:07:44.880] did all these continuances and I have no doubt that the judge got her to do it, but she did [01:07:44.880 --> 01:07:53.760] it. So now she's going to go to the judge and say, see what you got me into. And she [01:07:53.760 --> 01:08:00.800] is likely to happen just like these others, like mine did, like Deborah's friend did is [01:08:00.800 --> 01:08:06.560] they'll just dismiss this thing and go away. You've got the right motion in there to do [01:08:06.560 --> 01:08:14.240] it. And that's the one about the grand jury, the indictment. [01:08:14.240 --> 01:08:20.760] Absolutely. Yeah. No, there was no transcript for those who don't know. Tell them about [01:08:20.760 --> 01:08:28.520] the indictment. Well, I was indicted. My indictment says we, the grand jury of the state of Mississippi. [01:08:28.520 --> 01:08:32.480] So a friend of mine said, well, why don't you ask for the transcripts? And I did. And [01:08:32.480 --> 01:08:38.280] the clerk of the court responded in writing, there are no transcripts. A court reporter [01:08:38.280 --> 01:08:45.600] is not present during the grand jury and therefore no minutes or transcripts are taken. So then [01:08:45.600 --> 01:08:51.920] I went to the Mississippi code 13725 says that a court reporter shall record either [01:08:51.920 --> 01:08:59.160] electronically or stenographically the proceedings of the grand jury, except when the grand [01:08:59.160 --> 01:09:10.320] jury is deliberating. So during all the witnesses and stuff, they do transcribe. I also got [01:09:10.320 --> 01:09:16.520] them on another thing. And that is during my last trial, we had found out that a witness [01:09:16.520 --> 01:09:22.240] was missing, the key witness. And the judge said, well, I never heard of a witness. And [01:09:22.240 --> 01:09:29.000] even the prosecutor said, well, I never heard of this witness from the police. And my attorney [01:09:29.000 --> 01:09:35.240] even said, we've never heard of this witness. But on the checklist, the mandatory checklist [01:09:35.240 --> 01:09:43.040] for the grand jury, it says that, that they checked off that they have the police report [01:09:43.040 --> 01:09:50.440] filed from the witness. And that police report is exactly what the judge, the DA and my attorney [01:09:50.440 --> 01:09:54.240] all said that we've never heard of this or seen this. In fact, they had to stop court [01:09:54.240 --> 01:10:00.520] to go fish it out, to go find it. Be it on the checklist, it says we've got it. And what [01:10:00.520 --> 01:10:06.480] it is, is just a general checklist, you know, police report filed by original complaining [01:10:06.480 --> 01:10:12.960] document thing. And then there's just a check by it. So either somebody is really, really [01:10:12.960 --> 01:10:16.680] breaking and violating the rules, or they just never had a grand jury. I think they [01:10:16.680 --> 01:10:25.040] just forged my indictment. And that's what I'm pushing. [01:10:25.040 --> 01:10:43.440] Oh, somebody muted my mic when I wasn't looking. Have you tried to get the grand jurors names? [01:10:43.440 --> 01:10:47.560] Yeah, I've actually got the grand jurors names. [01:10:47.560 --> 01:11:01.320] Send them a, each one of them a letter and ask them about the indictment. Did you participate [01:11:01.320 --> 01:11:06.040] in this indictment? You can tell that, you know, you have questions and you're concerned [01:11:06.040 --> 01:11:14.120] that there may actually have never been an indictment. Okay. And ask them about it. And [01:11:14.120 --> 01:11:24.320] especially ask the foreman because, Oh, wait, wait, wait. Have you looked at any other indictments [01:11:24.320 --> 01:11:32.680] that came down about the same time? No. Go back and ask for the court records for cause [01:11:32.680 --> 01:11:41.400] numbers will say 20 numbers before yours and 20 numbers after yours. Okay. And compare [01:11:41.400 --> 01:11:50.440] the signatures of the foreman. The main thing you want to look for are signatures that are [01:11:50.440 --> 01:12:06.680] exactly the same like a rubber stamp or a cut and pasty. So they're arrogant. You know, [01:12:06.680 --> 01:12:11.480] I could take your signature and cut and paste it 50 different ways. All I got to do is grab [01:12:11.480 --> 01:12:18.560] the corner of the box and morph it. So you pull the top up, you pull the side down. So [01:12:18.560 --> 01:12:24.840] if you superimpose them, they're not exact. I guarantee you, if these guys are cutting [01:12:24.840 --> 01:12:32.440] and pasting the foreman's signature, they're exact. Okay. So first you want to, you want [01:12:32.440 --> 01:12:40.280] to get those indictments and then did you, Oh, wait, wait. I started saying, I think [01:12:40.280 --> 01:12:52.040] we talked about requesting the court reporters a voucher for that day. Yes. And they have [01:12:52.040 --> 01:13:02.600] not responded. Oh, yeah. I wrote a certified letter to the clerk and to the comptroller [01:13:02.600 --> 01:13:09.000] of currency. Well, you told me which position and I found that position. I wrote it, sent [01:13:09.000 --> 01:13:18.840] it certified with a, I even Xerox to the receipt or the certification to prove that what the [01:13:18.840 --> 01:13:23.280] same certification on the outside of the envelope is on the inside of the envelope. And I have [01:13:23.280 --> 01:13:32.160] not received a response at all. And I wrote respond within 10 days. Have you read the [01:13:32.160 --> 01:13:40.760] open records act for Mississippi? Yes. Is it a civil statute or a criminal statute? [01:13:40.760 --> 01:13:45.680] I don't remember. It's been six months. Okay. I'm almost going to assure you that it's a [01:13:45.680 --> 01:13:52.440] criminal statute. Everyone I've looked at. Yes. And for those that, for whom this is [01:13:52.440 --> 01:13:59.200] not clear, if you go file a information request and they don't respond to it in time, they [01:13:59.200 --> 01:14:04.560] say, well, you can just sue us. No, that's not what the code says. The code says violation [01:14:04.560 --> 01:14:11.440] of this act is a class a misdemeanor official misconduct. [01:14:11.440 --> 01:14:17.520] Up to a year in jail. I will look that up as soon as I hang up. And then when I call [01:14:17.520 --> 01:14:24.120] you next week, I'll have that written down. Now this kind of goes to my adage. Never ask [01:14:24.120 --> 01:14:32.280] a public official to do anything you actually want him to do. Because you never ask a public [01:14:32.280 --> 01:14:40.240] official to do anything that the law does not specifically command him to do. That way, [01:14:40.240 --> 01:14:47.940] when he doesn't do it, you get to club him good. The little tar baby thing. I go into [01:14:47.940 --> 01:14:53.200] public offices and I say, Hey, I got this little tar baby. You want to touch it? I say, [01:14:53.200 --> 01:14:57.920] here, go ahead, touch it. And then I'll drag you to the next one in line and get him to [01:14:57.920 --> 01:15:03.280] touch it because he's not going to want to prosecute you. [01:15:03.280 --> 01:15:09.800] It's just great fun, but it makes them nuts. Now to make things simple, could I just go [01:15:09.800 --> 01:15:15.140] to, can I write a letter to one of the grand juror members of my indictment and just ask [01:15:15.140 --> 01:15:19.960] him if there was a court reporter present during the proceedings? Well, you want to [01:15:19.960 --> 01:15:27.160] find out if there actually were any proceedings or the foreman is the one who had to sign [01:15:27.160 --> 01:15:37.800] it. So if there weren't any proceedings, the one who has skin in the game is the one whose [01:15:37.800 --> 01:15:47.680] signature is on the document. Yeah. And yeah, you could write it to any grand juror, but [01:15:47.680 --> 01:15:54.680] the likelihood that they would remember this particular indictment is very, very slim, [01:15:54.680 --> 01:16:03.400] especially this far down the road. Yeah. The foreman, he's got a, he's got a dog in this [01:16:03.400 --> 01:16:11.200] hunt and you might tell him that you have reason to believe that your indictment was [01:16:11.200 --> 01:16:17.960] actually forged, that it never actually happened. Because if a grand jury had heard the information [01:16:17.960 --> 01:16:26.760] that was available, then there's no way they would have indicted. And now you can't find [01:16:26.760 --> 01:16:32.760] the transcripts of the grand juror. And whenever you do that, this goes to the other end. Never [01:16:32.760 --> 01:16:39.960] make a proactive statement of law out of your own mouth. You say, I've got to go to break [01:16:39.960 --> 01:16:44.960] and then you kind of go right. Okay. I'll pick this up when we come back on the other [01:16:44.960 --> 01:16:51.080] side. I'll talk about how you make your request in the language of the law. This is Randy [01:16:51.080 --> 01:16:57.840] Kelton, Deborah Stevens with our radio. I call it number 512-646-1984. We'll be right [01:16:57.840 --> 01:17:05.040] back.

[01:19:27.080 --> 01:19:45.640] Okay, we are back. Randy Kelton, Debra Stevens, Wheel of Law Radio. We're talking to Jeff [01:19:45.640 --> 01:19:51.400] in Mississippi. And Jeff, we're talking about never make a proactive statement of law out [01:19:51.400 --> 01:20:01.040] of your own mouth. So you make up a letter to the foreman and tell the foreman that under [01:20:01.040 --> 01:20:11.320] whatever statute, the court reporter is required to make a recording or state that kind of [01:20:11.320 --> 01:20:18.540] in the verbiage of the law. And then state that you made a request for the transcript [01:20:18.540 --> 01:20:24.720] of that particular hearing. Since the hearing involved you, you had a special interest, [01:20:24.720 --> 01:20:34.040] but you were informed that there was no such transcript. Since the recording is specifically [01:20:34.040 --> 01:20:42.280] required by statute, you now have reason to believe that there actually was never a hearing [01:20:42.280 --> 01:20:48.640] at all. And you have reason to believe that your signature was forged on an indictment [01:20:48.640 --> 01:21:00.400] of me. Then ask him the question you want to ask. Now you'll have his attention. And [01:21:00.400 --> 01:21:05.400] you know, he's going to be concerned that he's going to be called down to testify as [01:21:05.400 --> 01:21:15.240] a witness concerning the, oh, the indictment. You're going to a motion hearing petition [01:21:15.240 --> 01:21:28.040] for summons is summoned the grand jury. Oh, hold on here. Okay. Go ahead. Summon the grand [01:21:28.040 --> 01:21:32.080] jury because you have reason to believe that the indictment was never happened because [01:21:32.080 --> 01:21:37.360] there's no recording. Now they'll claim that that's a different issue and not relevant [01:21:37.360 --> 01:21:42.760] for my motion hearing. You don't care what they claim. You're claiming the indictment [01:21:42.760 --> 01:21:49.640] is improper because it never, it wasn't properly brought. And you need to summon the grand [01:21:49.640 --> 01:21:55.040] jury members to get them to testify as to whether there was an indictment at all. Since [01:21:55.040 --> 01:22:03.240] there is no recording, you have reason to believe it didn't happen. Request it anyway. [01:22:03.240 --> 01:22:11.200] Let them deny it. One more thing for appeal. They have listed as a witness, the police [01:22:11.200 --> 01:22:19.560] officer that testified against me in court. Should I summon him too? Absolutely. Ask him [01:22:19.560 --> 01:22:25.280] if he testified because he's kind of stupid. So he, he's not really all that bright. He [01:22:25.280 --> 01:22:32.480] may say, no, I never went to a grand jury hearing and was, is he still around? Oh, I'm [01:22:32.480 --> 01:22:40.000] sure he is because he's supposed to testify against me at my trial. I mean, he's the main [01:22:40.000 --> 01:22:48.720] dude that they brought in against me. Okay. So he may still be around then because policemen, [01:22:48.720 --> 01:22:54.880] they float around a lot, especially the losers. Well, he's going to have to be, I mean, cause [01:22:54.880 --> 01:23:01.160] that's their whole case is based on him. And you know, if you hammer them enough, that's [01:23:01.160 --> 01:23:10.880] a real easy way to make the case go away. Okay. No witness. Oh my goodness. The officer didn't [01:23:10.880 --> 01:23:21.160] show up. We want a continuance and they expect you to object. If you do it right, you will [01:23:21.160 --> 01:23:27.560] object. You were ordered to be here on this day. That policeman should have been ordered [01:23:27.560 --> 01:23:32.200] to be here on this day. I have a right to my hearing today. [01:23:32.200 --> 01:23:38.440] Cause we've seen these TV programs where they've got a witness is supposed to be there. That [01:23:38.440 --> 01:23:45.320] way they can't get the witness in there. It's sudden death. Then that's because if it was [01:23:45.320 --> 01:23:51.960] civil trial, it'd be different, but this is criminal. They don't call you and say, Hey, [01:23:51.960 --> 01:23:57.200] would this be a good day for you to show up in court or do you have something else planned? [01:23:57.200 --> 01:24:05.080] If it's civil, they do that. But criminal, they say, be here on this day at this time. [01:24:05.080 --> 01:24:13.400] That way the judge and the prosecutor can manage their docket. But as a consequence [01:24:13.400 --> 01:24:19.320] of that, if they say you be here on this day at this time and you're there, you have a [01:24:19.320 --> 01:24:29.960] right to your hearing. And that's a good way to get rid of a case. And if the prosecutor [01:24:29.960 --> 01:24:37.960] sees this going south on him, that's how he can get rid of the case and not lose face. [01:24:37.960 --> 01:24:45.280] But make sure you summon those grand jury members. If they didn't do the indictment [01:24:45.280 --> 01:24:54.360] right and that, even if they do, you know, then if they have the trial again, you're [01:24:54.360 --> 01:24:59.820] setting a record for appeal and this is not something they're going to want to go before [01:24:59.820 --> 01:25:07.600] court of appeals because what that says, every single indictment that they got according [01:25:07.600 --> 01:25:19.000] to this procedure is now in jeopardy. In Houston, we had the crime lab false, got caught falsifying [01:25:19.000 --> 01:25:33.440] evidence, and it put thousands of cases in jeopardy. In Dallas, a court appointed counsel [01:25:33.440 --> 01:25:42.400] is representing this guy for a drug issue and he asks for the sample of drugs and gets [01:25:42.400 --> 01:25:54.280] a private test on it and it's chalk. There was no cocaine in it at all. It was just chalk. [01:25:54.280 --> 01:26:00.920] And this was based on an informant and this informant had informed on hundreds of people, [01:26:00.920 --> 01:26:06.960] put all the cases in jeopardy or all thrown out, had to redo them all. This is what they're [01:26:06.960 --> 01:26:14.320] looking at. No recording of the grand jury hearing when there is a statutory requirement [01:26:14.320 --> 01:26:23.080] for recording. They come into the court of appeals and say that, oh my goodness, they [01:26:23.080 --> 01:26:33.520] got a problem. And you might look for something like a court of inquiry. This may be somewhat [01:26:33.520 --> 01:26:39.440] hard to find in the code. I really like Texas code because they got all this cool stuff [01:26:39.440 --> 01:26:49.840] in there. But somewhere in Mississippi law, they have to have a provision for ferreting [01:26:49.840 --> 01:26:55.320] out the really corrupt morons. [01:26:55.320 --> 01:27:03.440] The smart corrupt guys can hide what they're doing or make it look plausibly deniable. [01:27:03.440 --> 01:27:08.160] It's the morons who do the stupid arrogant stuff that gets everybody in trouble. So there [01:27:08.160 --> 01:27:13.240] has to be a way to crucify those guys and flush them out. In Texas, it's called a court [01:27:13.240 --> 01:27:20.880] of inquiry and it's primarily for examining into public officials. Do you know of anything [01:27:20.880 --> 01:27:23.360] in Mississippi of that nature? [01:27:23.360 --> 01:27:27.440] No, I don't. I'll start looking. [01:27:27.440 --> 01:27:37.560] That one would be a good one to find. And you could use these two terms. The primary [01:27:37.560 --> 01:27:49.240] term is predicate acts. You use the term predicate acts. The red flags go up everywhere. Predicate [01:27:49.240 --> 01:28:01.320] acts ongoing criminal enterprise. That's what it takes to establish RICO. And RICO scares [01:28:01.320 --> 01:28:08.680] everybody. It's in a RICO suit. You get to develop testimony under the rules of civil [01:28:08.680 --> 01:28:17.320] procedure that can then be used to prosecute under the criminal code. The rules of criminal [01:28:17.320 --> 01:28:24.080] procedure are a lot stricter on what evidence you can develop, like the prohibition against [01:28:24.080 --> 01:28:31.560] self-incrimination. That don't happen in civil. So when they're looking at RICO, where they [01:28:31.560 --> 01:28:37.000] can develop this testimony under civil and then bring it in under criminal, that scares [01:28:37.000 --> 01:28:50.560] them. And if they have actually created bogus indictments, do you really think that kind [01:28:50.560 --> 01:29:03.600] of thing would happen? Let me tell you a story. The US attorneys, they all have a rubber stamp [01:29:03.600 --> 01:29:10.720] with the foreman's signature on it. What they do is they come in and they get an indictment [01:29:10.720 --> 01:29:16.920] over any BS. Just anything they can get an indictment over. That's when they really start [01:29:16.920 --> 01:29:24.920] to root their investigation. And then once they get other evidence, then they come back [01:29:24.920 --> 01:29:32.520] in for superseding indictments. And the US attorney just stamps those. That's what we [01:29:32.520 --> 01:29:42.240] do all over the country. So good chance these guys learned from the feds and all those annoying [01:29:42.240 --> 01:29:47.280] indictments were too much pain in the rear. So we were just signing, especially if it's [01:29:47.280 --> 01:29:52.720] a little iffy, iffy, we just signed it ourselves. Hang on, Randy Kelton, Deborah Stevens, we [01:29:52.720 --> 01:29:58.680] have our radio or call it number 512-646-1984. We'll be right back.

[01:30:47.320 --> 01:30:51.400] Well, it's no secret that too much sugar will expand your waistline. When that sweetener [01:30:51.400 --> 01:30:55.800] is in the form of high fructose corn syrup, you put your body at risk for disease. We're [01:30:55.800 --> 01:31:00.720] talking high blood pressure, obesity, especially in children, high cholesterol and insulin [01:31:00.720 --> 01:31:05.600] resistance that can lead to type 2 diabetes and that's just part of it. Food manufacturers [01:31:05.600 --> 01:31:10.160] have to list their ingredients on all packaging and fortunately many are now providing alternatives. [01:31:10.160 --> 01:31:14.560] So the next time you reach for the cookies, ketchup or barbecue sauce, check the label. [01:31:14.560 --> 01:31:20.200] The life you save may be your child's.

After work, I'm so tired that I want to be [01:32:03.520 --> 01:32:09.680] left alone to sleep. Hey, listen to me. Who are you? I'm you years ago when you felt healthy [01:32:09.680 --> 01:32:14.240] and young and everything worked on your body. Do you remember that? Yes. I wish I felt like [01:32:14.240 --> 01:32:19.120] that now. You can feel like that again with a new micro plant powder formulation called [01:32:19.120 --> 01:32:24.040] iodine now. It cleans the entire body from head to toe and feeds the body what it really [01:32:24.040 --> 01:32:29.040] needs. You'll be in a better mood and you'll find more drive in your romantic life. Really? [01:32:29.040 --> 01:32:33.920] I got to try iodine now and feel good again. It also protects you from radiation, heavy [01:32:33.920 --> 01:32:38.360] metals, four-eyed chlorine and bromine, including cancer and most major diseases.

[01:33:16.800 --> 01:33:31.800] Thank you very much. [01:33:46.800 --> 01:34:05.800] Okay. We are back. Randy Kelton, Deborah Stevens, Wheel of Law Radio. We're talking to Jeff [01:34:05.800 --> 01:34:14.040] in Mississippi. This is getting to be way too much fun, Jeff. This part here could get [01:34:14.040 --> 01:34:23.480] real interesting. We keep talking about the politics of the case. It looks as though you've [01:34:23.480 --> 01:34:39.240] got some serious politics in your favor. When you do your request to the grand jury foreman, [01:34:39.240 --> 01:34:52.040] you might copy the request to the judge and ask the judge to consider the request to make [01:34:52.040 --> 01:35:00.320] sure it doesn't violate any rules or regulations or anything. I'm not sure. I have to think [01:35:00.320 --> 01:35:06.280] about how to do that. We want them, now it'd probably be better if you didn't, just send [01:35:06.280 --> 01:35:12.640] it to the foreman. They can't accuse you of tampering with the jury, the grand jury, [01:35:12.640 --> 01:35:14.960] because these guys aren't grand jurors anymore. [01:35:14.960 --> 01:35:24.080] Well, and the code 99-1-9 says that you cannot ask a grand juror member about any witness [01:35:24.080 --> 01:35:29.640] testimony or anything during the proceedings for up to six months. [01:35:29.640 --> 01:35:41.360] Oh, that is good. So now you can ask him essentially anything except for the deliberation. Is that [01:35:41.360 --> 01:35:43.400] singled out as separate? [01:35:43.400 --> 01:35:45.800] What, during deliberation? [01:35:45.800 --> 01:35:46.800] Yeah. [01:35:46.800 --> 01:35:51.360] Yeah, it only talks about the proceedings, like witness testimony, what happened during [01:35:51.360 --> 01:35:53.560] the proceedings. It doesn't say about deliberation. [01:35:53.560 --> 01:35:59.960] Okay, because deliberations are probably still secret and always will be, and they probably [01:35:59.960 --> 01:36:05.400] always should be. But you get to ask about what you want to ask for. Now they don't have [01:36:05.400 --> 01:36:10.360] any grounds for objecting. [01:36:10.360 --> 01:36:12.480] Yes. [01:36:12.480 --> 01:36:21.240] So this is great. You already have in the motion challenging the validity of the indictment, [01:36:21.240 --> 01:36:22.240] don't you? [01:36:22.240 --> 01:36:30.680] Yes, I absolutely do. And as far as grand jurors, I know two grand jury members that [01:36:30.680 --> 01:36:37.640] served grand jury duty two years after my indictment, my Baptist preacher and the dean [01:36:37.640 --> 01:36:44.080] of the college. I didn't tell the Baptist preacher what I was asking. I just said it [01:36:44.080 --> 01:36:50.120] kind of as a curious note, hey, when you guys were in the main courtroom during your proceedings [01:36:50.120 --> 01:36:55.720] and all the presentations, was there a little lady at a typewriter there chugging away? [01:36:55.720 --> 01:37:04.320] And he says, yes, the court reporter. Yes, that was my indictment. Mine was two years [01:37:04.320 --> 01:37:11.720] before. But I do have a grand jury members, actually two of them, because the dean of [01:37:11.720 --> 01:37:17.000] the college was there saying that, yeah, the court reporters in there chugging away. [01:37:17.000 --> 01:37:23.440] So you might want to go to the dean of the college and this Baptist preacher and ask [01:37:23.440 --> 01:37:28.720] them if they would be willing to testify to that fact. [01:37:28.720 --> 01:37:30.760] Okay. [01:37:30.760 --> 01:37:36.640] Both of them is likely to have a very high moral center. The dean of the college is going [01:37:36.640 --> 01:37:43.120] to be more political. The Baptist preacher is probably the best one. [01:37:43.120 --> 01:37:44.120] Okay. [01:37:44.120 --> 01:37:48.720] But, you know, you tell them you want to subpoena them and you'd hope that you could subpoena [01:37:48.720 --> 01:37:54.240] them not as a, what do you call it? Hostile witness. [01:37:54.240 --> 01:37:55.240] Okay. [01:37:55.240 --> 01:38:10.040] And you might get grand juries before grand juries after. Before and after your indictment. [01:38:10.040 --> 01:38:21.960] And talk to them and ask them. If the one before says yes, and the one after says yes, [01:38:21.960 --> 01:38:26.320] then they almost certainly cheated your indictment. [01:38:26.320 --> 01:38:29.160] Yeah. Okay. [01:38:29.160 --> 01:38:35.040] And when you go down and start asking these questions, like when you talk to the clerk [01:38:35.040 --> 01:38:41.680] and ask for these grand juror names, these folks are going to get excited. And if they [01:38:41.680 --> 01:38:50.160] give you some nonsense that they don't keep the names, then you go down and do a calculation [01:38:50.160 --> 01:39:00.040] on the cause numbers. You know, like you might ask them about how many felony criminal complaints [01:39:00.040 --> 01:39:11.480] or indictments do you have a year? And that gives you a number to work with. So take your [01:39:11.480 --> 01:39:16.720] cause number and deduct however many from it and that'll put you, it should put you [01:39:16.720 --> 01:39:17.720] about a year back. [01:39:17.720 --> 01:39:18.720] Okay. [01:39:18.720 --> 01:39:23.440] How long do grand juries sit in Mississippi? [01:39:23.440 --> 01:39:29.280] I don't know. I don't know if it's a week or two weeks. I've actually done the paperwork. [01:39:29.280 --> 01:39:30.280] I'll have to dig it out. [01:39:30.280 --> 01:39:34.360] Yeah. Their whole term, generally in small counties like that is six months. [01:39:34.360 --> 01:39:39.000] Oh, okay. You mean their term. I thought you meant- [01:39:39.000 --> 01:39:41.640] Do you have the full term? [01:39:41.640 --> 01:39:44.880] I don't know. I'll find that out next week. [01:39:44.880 --> 01:39:51.720] And then back up to the term before yours and into the term after yours. And if they [01:39:51.720 --> 01:39:59.680] don't give you the names, then go in and look at the indictments and get the grand juror's [01:39:59.680 --> 01:40:00.680] signature off the indictments. [01:40:00.680 --> 01:40:01.680] Okay. I got you. [01:40:01.680 --> 01:40:08.000] And it should have his name printed under the signature. Somewhere you can find the [01:40:08.000 --> 01:40:09.000] foreman's name. [01:40:09.000 --> 01:40:15.600] Okay. I got it. Okay. Well, I will call you next week. I'm done. That's all the questions [01:40:15.600 --> 01:40:16.600] I've got. [01:40:16.600 --> 01:40:23.400] Now that ought to get pretty interesting. This is where the good, this is where the [01:40:23.400 --> 01:40:27.960] fun starts. Now you're going after them. They're not going after you. [01:40:27.960 --> 01:40:30.240] No, they're running for me. [01:40:30.240 --> 01:40:37.200] Yes. And they're doing everything they can, but it's not working. And now you got the [01:40:37.200 --> 01:40:42.960] judge and the lawyer at one another's throats. When you get the sharks to turn on each other, [01:40:42.960 --> 01:40:44.760] that's when it starts getting good. [01:40:44.760 --> 01:40:46.600] Okay. Good deal. [01:40:46.600 --> 01:40:54.800] And who's going to throw who under the bus? Well, recently I had so much fun when I went [01:40:54.800 --> 01:41:05.080] to my local chief of police. They had refused to give a complaint that I filed to the local [01:41:05.080 --> 01:41:10.000] magistrate or the county attorney. And he said the county attorney told him not to. [01:41:10.000 --> 01:41:15.040] So the county attorney, he come out and said, Mr. Kelton, do you think I'm out of my professional [01:41:15.040 --> 01:41:21.480] mind? Do you really think I would waive my sovereign immunity by giving legal advice [01:41:21.480 --> 01:41:22.480] to the police? [01:41:22.480 --> 01:41:29.600] I said, well, James, I didn't think so, but I'm just following the thunder here. So I [01:41:29.600 --> 01:41:35.280] went back and knocked on the chief's door and he come to the door. Can I help you, Mr. Kelton? [01:41:35.280 --> 01:41:41.760] I said, yes, chief, the county attorney just threw you under the bus and I'm here to run [01:41:41.760 --> 01:41:45.400] you over with it. [01:41:45.400 --> 01:41:52.280] That was so much fun. He just ducked his head. Come on in, Mr. Kelton. [01:41:52.280 --> 01:42:00.600] But now you may have that opportunity. They may start throwing one another under the bus. [01:42:00.600 --> 01:42:08.360] That's what happens. Your attorney is probably afraid that the judge is going to throw her [01:42:08.360 --> 01:42:15.800] under the bus and she's not going to want to be thrown under the bus, especially when [01:42:15.800 --> 01:42:25.640] you sent her a bill for the time that this cost you. And did the judge ever admit or [01:42:25.640 --> 01:42:29.480] did he deny having you arrested? [01:42:29.480 --> 01:42:35.960] He would not answer my question. I asked him twice. He looked down at the table and just [01:42:35.960 --> 01:42:36.960] went on. [01:42:36.960 --> 01:42:45.120] You should have stopped him. You didn't answer my question. If you had me arrested, I'd need [01:42:45.120 --> 01:42:53.400] an answer because if you did, I want you to get out off that bench. He didn't and he didn't [01:42:53.400 --> 01:42:55.120] want to bury the lawyer. [01:42:55.120 --> 01:42:56.120] Okay. [01:42:56.120 --> 01:43:04.280] So he didn't have anything to do with it. The lawyer did it and now he's going to throw [01:43:04.280 --> 01:43:09.200] her under the bus because he didn't say yes, he did. [01:43:09.200 --> 01:43:13.040] No. Can I redeem myself in the future? [01:43:13.040 --> 01:43:18.720] Wait a minute. Was that a question? [01:43:18.720 --> 01:43:24.560] Yeah. If I get another hearing, can I reopen that question? Hey, judge, why did you arrest [01:43:24.560 --> 01:43:26.400] me? Tell me now. [01:43:26.400 --> 01:43:34.400] Yes. Well, you might do a request for the court order to order your arrest. [01:43:34.400 --> 01:43:36.600] Got it. Okay. [01:43:36.600 --> 01:43:40.360] The arrest order referred to by this lawyer. [01:43:40.360 --> 01:43:41.360] Okay. [01:43:41.360 --> 01:43:47.920] Okay. Thank you, Jeff. We're about to go to another break. Randy Kelton, Debra Stevens, [01:43:47.920 --> 01:43:55.440] we have our radio. Our call in number is 512-646-1984. We're going to our last break. So if you [01:43:55.440 --> 01:44:00.320] have a question or comment, give us a call. We'll be right back. [01:44:00.320 --> 01:44:03.920] You feel tired when talking about important topics like money and politics? [01:44:03.920 --> 01:44:04.920] Sorry. [01:44:04.920 --> 01:44:07.600] Are you confused by words like the constitution or the federal reserve? [01:44:07.600 --> 01:44:08.600] What? [01:44:08.600 --> 01:44:13.800] If so, you may be diagnosed with the deadliest disease known today, stupidity. Hi, my name [01:44:13.800 --> 01:44:18.000] is Steve Holt, and like millions of other Americans, I was diagnosed with stupidity [01:44:18.000 --> 01:44:22.720] at an early age. I had no idea that the number one cause of the disease is found in almost [01:44:22.720 --> 01:44:28.120] every home in America, the television. Unfortunately, that puts most Americans at risk of catching [01:44:28.120 --> 01:44:32.660] stupidity, but there is hope. The staff at Brave New Books have helped me and thousands [01:44:32.660 --> 01:44:37.160] of other foxaholics suffering from sports zombieism recover. And because of Brave New [01:44:37.160 --> 01:44:43.280] Books, I now enjoy reading and watching educational documentaries without feeling tired or uninterested. [01:44:43.280 --> 01:44:50.640] So if you or anybody you know suffers from stupidity, then you need to call 512-480-2503 [01:44:50.640 --> 01:44:54.720] or visit them at 1904Guadalupe or bravenewbookstore.com.

[01:46:21.600 --> 01:46:49.960] Okay, we are back, Brenda Kelton and Deborah Stevens, Rule of Law Radio, and we have won [01:46:49.960 --> 01:46:58.120] a steemed caller, the immutable, the undeniable, Mr. Jeff Sedgwick. Hello, Mr. Jess. [01:46:58.120 --> 01:47:05.960] Hello. Good evening. I sent you a Skype, asking if you had time for me to do a little, to [01:47:05.960 --> 01:47:10.240] give you a little information about an 11th Circuit decision that was handed down on the [01:47:10.240 --> 01:47:11.240] 5th of January. [01:47:11.240 --> 01:47:18.080] Yeah, and I apologize. I didn't see that Skype earlier. I'm old and I don't multitask well. [01:47:18.080 --> 01:47:19.080] Okay. [01:47:19.080 --> 01:47:26.400] And I have all my Skype sounds turned off, because if I don't, Deborah will beat me. [01:47:26.400 --> 01:47:36.600] It's a first blush case, and it's a very interesting case. A guy gets sued by a debt buyer. He [01:47:36.600 --> 01:47:43.080] wins the case. He contacts all three of the credit reporting agencies. All but one takes [01:47:43.080 --> 01:47:49.000] it off. The one that didn't take it off sent back a letter, said, hey, the zip code on [01:47:49.000 --> 01:47:53.960] your envelope didn't match the zip code in our records. We have a suspicion that this [01:47:53.960 --> 01:47:59.520] isn't you. Please send us all this information to verify that it's you, and we'll entertain [01:47:59.520 --> 01:48:10.120] your request. So he did. And again, they refused to take it off. So he sues him in District [01:48:10.120 --> 01:48:23.720] Court for failure to conduct a reasonable investigation under 1681 IA. And they snooker [01:48:23.720 --> 01:48:30.800] the District Court judge by saying, well, he's not really entitled to any damages because [01:48:30.800 --> 01:48:38.520] we never conveyed a report to anyone. So the District Judge on motion for summary judgment [01:48:38.520 --> 01:48:48.760] gave the judgment to the credit reporting agency. He appeals, takes it into court, points [01:48:48.760 --> 01:48:57.760] out to the Circuit Court the judge erred, because under 1681 IA, it doesn't say anything [01:48:57.760 --> 01:49:14.240] about a credit report. It says, is credit file. So the judge basically says, yea, verily, [01:49:14.240 --> 01:49:22.080] you're entitled to statutory damages, actual damages, and punitive damages, but only under [01:49:22.080 --> 01:49:35.280] negligence, not under willful. You with me? I was thinking, I was trying to structure [01:49:35.280 --> 01:49:44.520] out the difference between negligent and willful. Okay. In this context. I can send a case to [01:49:44.520 --> 01:49:48.600] you, and he gives a bit of a dissertation in there, and it's much too long to try and [01:49:48.600 --> 01:49:54.400] handle in the few minutes you have left in the show. Oh, okay. But we've got, you're [01:49:54.400 --> 01:50:03.600] the only caller, so we've got another eight minutes. Which is also interesting. Okay. [01:50:03.600 --> 01:50:11.360] What I was wondering is, why is this one so important? How else can we use this? Well, [01:50:11.360 --> 01:50:22.560] I'm getting to that. Okay. That was my next step. Okay, I'll shut up. The same statute [01:50:22.560 --> 01:50:37.560] also applies to the furniture. The furniture being one that furnished the original documentation [01:50:37.560 --> 01:50:45.560] to the credit reporting agency to put the mark on the credit. Is that correct? Yes, [01:50:45.560 --> 01:50:55.560] and the furniture knew they had lost the case, but they were verifying the CRA's inquiry. [01:50:55.560 --> 01:51:07.000] Isn't that interesting? Oh, wait a minute. Verifying the credit reporting agency's inquiry. [01:51:07.000 --> 01:51:16.960] The credit reporting agency would send an investigatory inquiry to the furniture saying, [01:51:16.960 --> 01:51:24.360] hey, this is disputed, please verify it. So they verified a debt that had already been [01:51:24.360 --> 01:51:30.120] trashed in court. Yes. And it was- [01:51:30.120 --> 01:51:38.920] This collateral estoppel. They were the ones who sued him for the debt. So they had to [01:51:38.920 --> 01:51:52.360] have known that they had lost. There is a current case in, I'm not sure if it's the [01:51:52.360 --> 01:51:59.860] Atlanta district court or just, it should be in the Dublin district court in Georgia, [01:51:59.860 --> 01:52:03.920] but it's not. It's in a different one. I think it's in the Atlanta district court. [01:52:03.920 --> 01:52:16.520] It's the very same case, but it is going after the debt buying furniture. And that is at [01:52:16.520 --> 01:52:21.120] this moment up on the field. Okay, that was going to be my question. Did [01:52:21.120 --> 01:52:24.920] they also sue the furniture that you answered that question? [01:52:24.920 --> 01:52:34.080] In this particular instance, they did not sue the furniture, keeping in mind that both [01:52:34.080 --> 01:52:43.560] of these cases are first blush. Not a good idea to take on two separate issues first [01:52:43.560 --> 01:52:49.160] blush. I was thinking they did well by staying with [01:52:49.160 --> 01:52:56.600] one point or one litigant. Two litigants can really mess things up. [01:52:56.600 --> 01:53:02.680] Right. Well, now because of this decision out of the 11th circuit, which coincidentally [01:53:02.680 --> 01:53:14.040] includes the Atlanta division of the district, this now becomes supporting doctrine for their [01:53:14.040 --> 01:53:24.080] case. If it's in one district and it's a first blush, [01:53:24.080 --> 01:53:32.040] it would be still strongly advisable for all of the other districts under full faith and [01:53:32.040 --> 01:53:38.160] credit because they haven't considered the issue that this one has. So I apologize for [01:53:38.160 --> 01:53:42.640] that in the background. So this should be citable in every district. [01:53:42.640 --> 01:53:52.240] They're coming to get me. That's why they had that wheelchair tied [01:53:52.240 --> 01:53:59.160] to the back of it. Right. That and the shovel. They hit me over [01:53:59.160 --> 01:54:09.360] the head with it. Anyway, you were saying. No, that was pretty much it, that this should [01:54:09.360 --> 01:54:17.920] be citable everywhere because it's first blush. Well, yes, but you know yourself that if you [01:54:17.920 --> 01:54:22.840] take that particular circuit court decision into another circuit, it's not going to be [01:54:22.840 --> 01:54:28.600] controlling. It's just going to be persuasive. Right. Just advisory. But it's strongly advisory [01:54:28.600 --> 01:54:36.880] because nobody else has considered it. And the court, one court tends to trust another. [01:54:36.880 --> 01:54:46.560] This whole notion of good faith and I mean, full faith and credit. And what was it? Landmark [01:54:46.560 --> 01:54:52.360] v. Kessler addressed that really well when they said that we have never looked at this [01:54:52.360 --> 01:54:59.240] issue, but courts in other states have looked at this issue and under full faith and credit, [01:54:59.240 --> 01:55:07.920] they trusted those courts to make a good determination. Right. Well, the end result was that the circuit [01:55:07.920 --> 01:55:16.440] court sent it back down to the district court for additional litigation. And what the circuit [01:55:16.440 --> 01:55:27.680] court did remove from the complaint basically was the willful part. So even though the willful [01:55:27.680 --> 01:55:35.280] part has been removed, the negligent part is still there. So they are in launch mode, [01:55:35.280 --> 01:55:45.800] for statutory damages, actual damages and punitive damages in the form of negligence. [01:55:45.800 --> 01:55:56.160] If this occurs again, then the intentional will definitely be animated because then it [01:55:56.160 --> 01:56:05.400] can go for willful. Willful. That's what the word is looking for. So, yeah. But it's a, [01:56:05.400 --> 01:56:13.960] you know, this is getting to be very interesting that all of this stuff that's going on. It [01:56:13.960 --> 01:56:23.200] sounds like we're, the courts are tending to rule more in our favor. You know, I don't [01:56:23.200 --> 01:56:30.320] know that I would necessarily go quite that far. I think I would be more inclined to say [01:56:30.320 --> 01:56:44.200] they're willing to accept the arguments from pro se as being legitimate, worthy arguments. [01:56:44.200 --> 01:56:53.840] That is a good sign. Is it a sign that the pro se's are getting better or that the courts [01:56:53.840 --> 01:57:00.960] are paying more attention to the pro se's? It's both actually. I think in the case of [01:57:00.960 --> 01:57:06.920] the, like in the case of the mortgages, you know, the pro se's and even those represented [01:57:06.920 --> 01:57:16.360] by attorneys, you know, it was just struggling and efforting. It just could not get wins. [01:57:16.360 --> 01:57:24.680] And then the investors for the mortgage backed securities started going into court raising [01:57:24.680 --> 01:57:33.920] some of the same issues. And when the same issues got raised, now they had more issues [01:57:33.920 --> 01:57:39.560] than just the ones that the homeowners had. But a lot of the issues that they had were [01:57:39.560 --> 01:57:46.080] basically the same or at least a very close parallel. The courts began to recognize, hey, [01:57:46.080 --> 01:57:50.480] with these people over here in the consumer side of the house, maybe they're not trying [01:57:50.480 --> 01:57:57.560] to get a free house. Maybe they do have a legitimate piece. Well, that is good news [01:57:57.560 --> 01:58:05.080] because we do seem to be getting more in our favor. Okay. Thank you very much, Jeff. We [01:58:05.080 --> 01:58:10.280] are about out of time and I still want to get you on as a guest. We could do a real [01:58:10.280 --> 01:58:27.880] good show. We could do a Jeff Sedgwick Roast. Okay. Thank you, Jeff. Bye bye. [01:58:40.280 --> 01:58:52.480] Oh, somebody muted my mic again. Thank you for listening.
