More Federal Court Outrageous Conduct
June 7, 2007
Hello, Folks;
Please allow me to start by answering a couple of inquiries and comments.
No, I am not soft on crime. Quite the contrary, I feel that criminals who break the law should be caught and punished.
My problem with the court system, and particularly the federal system of injustice, is the fact that it is fatally infected with law enforcement and prosecutors who are compulsive, pathological liars and often worse criminal than those they arrest and prosecute. Even worse is the fact that the overwhelming majority of federal judges are unmitigated tyrants and not the least bit impartial as they blithely go about shredding the Bill of rights and doing whatever it takes to assure the Government a conviction.
Point in question is the recent trial of Darry Hannah who was tried in federal court in Florence, South Carolina in front of Judge Terry L. Wooten. Hannah had been tried in State Court for the alleged murder of his sister-in-law and was acquitted. That should have ended it, right? Well, it did not.
After Hannah was acquitted, Assistant U.S. Attorneys Jonathan Glasser of Columbia and Rose Mary Parham of Florence, got together and looked for a way to get themselves some big time publicity and use the Government's power and resources to go after Hannah another way.
It did not matter that Hannah was acquitted in State Court. The federales were going to ignore the age old concept of double jeopardy and use another avenue to get Hannah.
At trial the Government put on 58 witnesses and more than 200 exhibits to convict Hannah of 19 counts of mail fraud, two counts of wire fraud, and one count of conspiracy.
The black robed imposter, so-called Judge Wooten sentenced Hannah to 440 years in prison, 20 years for each of 22 counts to run consecutively.
If this doesn't make you nauseous, nothing will. Here you have a Judge who is obviously bowing to political pressure by the State of South Carolina to put into prison someone that South Carolina couldn't convict. This is patently obvious to the most casual observer.
People who are actually found guilty of murder or manslaughter get sentenced to 10 years, sometimes 20 years, and if it is a really bad set of circumstances, life or death sentences.
That Wooten applied 440 years to Hannah tells you that he is out of control and acting not as an impartial arbiter of the truth, but as an arm of the State of South Carolina who's Attorney General was embarrassed by losing the State case.
In the final analysis, Wooten should be impeached for allowing the trial in the first place. It was obviously a vindictive prosecution and Wooten was the facilitator of the scheme, while ignoring the double jeopardy question.
Yeah, I know the old and shopworn judicial construct about dual sovereignty to the extent the federal decisions say that the federals can prosecute separately from the State, but that is NOT what the Constitution and Bill of Rights really says. It is merely a judicial construct by federal judges, who ignore the pure intent of their Founding Fathers.
Yes, again, Folks----Do you really want to continue to vote for a Congress and President when they put into power people like Wooten? I should hope not.
Show you care! Join the No Vote Party today. Get everyone you know to do likewise. Help send a message to Washington that we will no longer stand for such abuse of power.
