Please CO POLS learn to summorize your posts. If its interesting we’ll open it and read all the details, but we shouldn’t have to scroll down a page and half just to find out what other posts are on here.
staring Fred Thompson – he’ll need the work after his campaign flames out in 9 months…
When I lived in Steamboat Springs, CO, an injunction was imposed upon me that did not meet the requirements of state law. It was issued on the basis that I molested my neighbor but I was not accused of that, there was no testimony that I molested her, and I had no opportunity to refute the finding, which was made sua sponte by Colorado Judge James Garrecht.
My husband and I called the CBI and asked them to investigate that, and that the injunction was issued to allow my former neighbor, Kevin Michael Bennett, who was president of the city council, to build in gross violation of the development code in both location and volume.
The CBI told us that they are only allowed to investigate if requested by the police or sheriff and can’t come in on a citizen’s request only.
The CBI wouldn’t get involved? Imagine that! Yeah, I had a landlord-tenant dispute up in Pine Junction, Colorado a while back. There was a provision in the lease that, based on the monthly lease amount, required the tenant to mow the lawn on this multi-family dwelling.
After a few months, he refused to mow the lawn, anymore. I called the CBI to “investigate” and became very annoyed when they refused. I then filed a complaint with the U.S. attorney’s office in Denver, based upon, not only the tortious, felonious conduct of my tenant but, also regarding the CBI’s criminal refusal to investigate. I did not receive a response. I then sued the CBI and my tenant in the U.S. District Court for the District of Puerto Rico. His attorney was black, so I also sued the NAACP. The judge, apparently in concert with the Colorado Bar Association (my former tenant’s attorney is a member of the CBA), dismissed my case sua sponte, erroneously claiming that I had chosen the wrong forum. Moreover, he dismissed it with prejudice as a “sanction” under Rule 11 for the filing of a frivolous lawsuit. He cannot do that, because none of the defendants filed a Rule 11 Motion and, therefore, the judgment against me is void ab initio.
So, then I created a MySpace account and have reproduced all my allegations concerning my tenant, his attorney, the CBI, the NAACP and the CBA. They have refused to acknowledge or deny my allegations on the MySpace page, which, of course, is a confession through the failure to deny. I now intend to refile my case, notwithstanding res judicata, in the the D.C. District Court, where I expect that I will be receiving at least a $30M in compensatory damages based on my causes of action of defamation, intentional interference with a business relationship, Section 1983, negligence, violations of the Interstate Trade Act, Colorado’s Consumer Protect Act (deceptive and unfair trade practices) and under Racketeering Influenced Corrupt Organization (RICO) against the CBI, the CBA, the NAACP, my former tenant and my former tenant’s attorney. Although it’s very unlikely, just in case I have any problem with my current law suit, I have also filed an identical case under the same theories and causes of action with the Provincial Court of British Columbia as a sovereign (sui juris) of the United States. Under international treaties and international law, they have to hear my case. Perhaps, if neither court finds out about the other, I may actually be able to recover $60M !!

I complained to the CBI about official misconduct, false government certificate, false reporting, perjury, and extortion. The public safety director told me to take my papers and get out of the police station when I complained about these white-collar crimes.
The CBI said they are not allowed to investigate based on a citizen’s complaint, only a local law enforcer’s complaint.
I read that in some parts of the country the police started on the take when there was prohibition and then just substituted selling drug evidence. So if the police and sheriff are involved in something like that, or some other graft and corruption, how can the CBI investigate unless they changed the law since 2000-2001?
How can graft and corruption be reduced? Where is this country going if JEFFCO is hiring agents to spy on its citizens? I told my story to a refugee I met in Canada and he said that sort of thing is why he left Africa and that my Colorado story “sounded like Africa”.
The rule is that there is not to be non consensual contact between citizens and law enforcement unless the law enforcement is actually investigating a crime. That would include hiring agents of law enforcement. Federal law specifically prohibits the U.S. Marshals from using agents and there is probably something similar in Colorado law.
Were the private investigators licensed?
Were the JEFFCO policy makers looking for an opportunity to use blackmail or intimidation to stop the citizens from doing something legal? That is extortion and it is a felony. In my case, they wanted to stop me from complaining about and getting compensation for my neighbors converting the street and their building what was not allowed in the zone. So they ratified a statement that I had “molested” my neighbor, which was impossible to support with the evidence.
However, we can glean quite a bit from the media reports about all the corruption at Jeffco. We’ve got Congrove threeatening women and witnesses, Congrove using county workers as confidential informants, Congrove hiring his buddy Daril Cinquanta as a Private Dick to run ops on everyone he hates (including other County Officials), we’ve got the County Attorney calling Congrove (his own client) a liar in public, we’ve got Congrove’s other buddy and attorney being fired as a county attorney, we’ve got ex Congrove co-commissioner Dave Auburn saying Congrove was investigating everybody, we’ve got Congrove working with some jilted former Paschall political “appointobabe” to set up Paschall in a kick-back scheme and get him on tape, we’ve got secret meetings, we’ve got stolen evidence, we’ve got untaped executive sessions, we’ve got lawsuits everywhere, we’ve got fired managers, we’ve got grand juries, we’ve got special prosecutors, yada yada yada. It sounds like it may be simply a matter of which crook gets the best deal to testify against the other crooks.
the actual decision as to what and who is charged is made by the Col A.G. They will be under pressure to charge as few people as possible with as little as possible.
