Sheriff's Deputy Daniel Szarowski Stole My Gadsden Flag Sign

MCSO Deputy Daniel Szarowski stole my Gadsden Flag sign from my window in 2017. The sign clearly said "Don't Tread on Me" but he decided to tread anyway. Is he illiterate or just disrespectful? Either trait is not desirable. I felt like my right to free speech was being trampled on by a giant tyrant. Szarowski may or may not be familiar with the true meaning of the Gadsden Flag. If he is familiar with it he probably viewed it as a statement against the tyranny of the government he represents and rightfully felt threatened by the sight of anyone waving it because such people are not likely to obey his every word. He obviously did not associate it with the freedoms that he personally enjoys thanks to the revolution that the flag represents. Had he done so he would not have had a problem with it, but had he appreciated the revolution and the constitution that would not exist without it, he would not be working for a government that has come to represent a greater tyranny than that which inspired the flag's creation in the first place.#danielszarowski #multnomahcountyjail #theft #gadsdenflag

David Collman: Does Anyone Understand The Words Out of His Mouth?

I don't want to hate on a guy for a speech disorder if that is what he has, but if that is not the case then he is deserving of this criticism. When he was running the unit at the FDC in Sheridan, Oregon his directives to the inmates were often not cognizable. By this I mean he would made a loud announcement to the unit and it would sound more like, "heeeehuuuhhhh, hee huh, ehhhh euh." Just some loud thing that we could not make out. We would typically have to guess at what he said based on the clock, so if it was near the end of our walk we figured he meant cell in or if it were near a meal we figured it was meal time. On top of that he always had a redness around his face even in winter that must have been due to high blood pressure or something like that. Maybe he was drunk? We really were not sure. The last time I was at Sheridan was in 2018 and by then he was working in the SHU at the FCI where I don't recall hearing him say anything at all.#davidcollman #fcisheridan #fdcsheridan

Officer Ryan Ruman Conducted Unlawful Search of Legal Material

My first memory of Ryan Ruman at FCI Sheridan was a fellow SHU inmate pointing him out and saying that he is a bad guard that should not be angered. Over the course of my time in the Special Housing Unit in 2018 I noticed nothing but a negative attitude towards inmates from him. You can tell just by the way he projects himself that he does not like inmates. I was warned not to piss him off because according to this other inmate he has an attitude problem. Eventually I did have a problem with him after a board up. I had covered the window and food port demanding that medical give me my medication because it was long past the time that they usually pass out pills, it was almost the end of the drug mules' shift, and I had been denied medication before, so I knew that if I did not get it soon I would not get it at all. The medication was something I needed to sleep. If I did not get it I would probably not sleep at all that night and suffer withdrawal the next day. I remember that Ruman had no problem reaching his hand in, pushing the mattress aside, and taking down the window cover. He certainly was not intimidated at all. Eventually he came into the cell and pushed me against the wall even though I was cooperating at that point. For some reason I seem to recall him making a verbal threat of some sort but I don't remember exactly what he said. The part of him storming the cell wasn't that bad. That really is not the point here. The point is that the responsible and safe way to handle that would have been to wait until medical arrived with the medication and if they had forgotten me to make sure they came back. That entire extraction, which could have gotten someone hurt, should not have happened because medical came shortly afterwards with my medication. When I was in the holding cell after the extraction, Ruman retaliated by ransacking my legal material, taking several items, and leaving a big mess of paperwork that had been in organized folders. I ended up having to reorganize the material and place it back where it belonged. That was totally uncalled for. First, it is illegal to search an inmates legal material without him present and if it is to be searched, it is not appropriate to dump it together. They are supposed to search the folder with the inmate present and put the material back where it was found. On top of that, Ruman violated BOP policy by conducting a cell extraction without a video camera. I seem to recall hearing later that the Warden had verbally reprimanded him for that. When there is an extraction the Warden usually asks to see the footage when he hears about it and gets mad if it was not recorded. That policy exists to protect guards and inmates alike because otherwise the cameras in the unit would not see the extraction.#ryanruman #fcisheridan #shu #theft #legalmail #bophealthservices

Ex-Cop Christopher Meyer Despite Similarities is NOT Christopher Myers

Phoenix Police Officer Christopher Meyer is not the same cop that pulled a gun and wrongfully shot an illegal immigrant in Seattle Washington, but I had to look into it to be sure. In 2010 Seattle Police Officer Christopher Myers pulled a gun and wrongfully shot Jose Manuel Cardenas-Muratalla after receiving a report of an armed man that Myers thought looked like Jose. That incident was later ruled an unjustified Terry Stop by the Washington Court of Appeals which overturned Jose's subsequent firearm conviction. The case involving Christopher Meyer is eerily similar, so when I saw that name I just had to verify that Christopher Myers was not working in Phoenix as a gypsy cop. The case against Christopher Meyer involved pulling a gun, handcuffing, and doing a leg sweep on a pregnant black woman holding a baby in Phoenix, Arizona. Meyer has since been fired much to the understandable delight of the woman, Iesha Harper.#christophermeyer #christophermyers #racism #assault

Anything Can Wait Until the Next Shift for Taylor Pennington

Taylor Pennington is really lucky to have another shift working immediately after him at FCI Sheridan. That way he can rest assured that if an inmate needs anything he can procrastinate until the end of his shift knowing that the next shift will probably handle it and he will not need to deal with it the next day. That is basically how Pennington works and it works well for him. Inmates eventually figure out that if you ask him to do anything he will just feed you excuses until he goes home and the next shift will probably help you, so they stop asking him for anything that is not so important that they will ask anyone for help including Pennington. Pennington has also known as Igor or Ygor by the inmates ever since this author was confined to the Special Housing Unit (SHU) at FCI Sheridan. That is because once the similarities between his appearance and that or Igor from Frankenstein were pointed out people realized that this giant ogre could have been a movie star if he were shorter. See Pennington is so tall that when he is pushing the food cart down the hall he is always bent over like a hunchback. #taylorpennington #fcisheridan #shu

Lynn Foss Make Sure Your Bed is Made

Being in jail is bad enough without Lynn Foss showing up and making you make your bed if you want to come out on your walk. These kinds of power trips do nothing but create contempt with the inmate population. Now you might wonder what the big deal is, it is just a bed, why don't you just make it. Well, the issue really is that you never have to make your bed unless she shows up, gets on the intercom, and says "make sure your beds are made, close your doors behind you." At first you probably won't make your bed after which you'll be told to make it or you'll be celled in. It is one of those little things that builds in the minds of the inmates and makes it harder for them to tolerate further transgressions down the road. Making a jail bed is not important enough to increase the stress and feeling of dis-empowerment that already results from being in jail. It does little to make the inmates more disciplined and obedient, and more to make them hate the staff. The trade off is not beneficial for anyone. She is lucky that I have better things to do than knock on her door as ask her if her bed is made because if I did not I would be right there asking that. Then when asked to leave I would probably say that she had better make her bed or she'd see me again. Then I would keep asking her until she finally would let me inside, show me the bedroom, and let me verify that the bed is made. Then she would never hear from me again, but not before telling her that I would be stopping by from time to time to make sure her bed is made.#lynnfoss #multnomahcountyjail

Multnomah Deputy Brett Russell Has a History of Disrespecting Inmates

Multnomah County Sheriff's Deputy Brett Russell has a history of disrespecting inmates and paying the price for it. Personally I have never had an issue with him, but I have seen and heard of too many to keep quiet about it. I first witnessed him harassing inmates in 2012 when I was housed in unit 8C at the Multnomah County Detention Center (MCDC) and he was insulting female inmates in 8B. At the time inmates in 8B and 8C could see and speak to one another because there was nothing blocking the view from the deputy's station to one unit or the other. The women in that unit were usually in there for close custody mental health reasons and many of them had a history of prostitution which explains why they tend to flash male guards and inmates. One day I heard Russell say something to a woman in 8B to the effect of "you're not my type, I'm not cruising down 82nd avenue." 82nd avenue is a busy street in Portland, Oregon historically known for being a prostitution hotbed. Before the internet it was not uncommon to see hookers on the sidewalk and even today the street is lined with cheap motels. Russell was obviously and inappropriately even if accurately calling the female inmate a whore. I then met a man that went by Kai and he talked about how Russell hated him. He mentioned at one point Russell and some other guards beating him up in a cell while he was experiencing a bipolar episode. He filled me in more about Russell's general attitude. When I met Andrew Barnett at the Columbia County Jail the following year, he told me that one of his charges was for throwing feces in the face of a Multnomah County deputy, showed me the paperwork, and I when read Russell's name, I was not surprised and laughed pretty hard. Barnett went into detail about how Russell acted like Russell during a visit between Barnett and his girlfriend. According to Barnett, Russell had made derogatory comments about her weight where both of them could hear him. Barnett also said that Russell found excuses to give him bad marks and take his visits. Eventually Barnett had enough, filled a small syrofoam cup with feces and urine, waited for Russell to pick up meal trays, did something to draw Russell's attention to the food port, and slung the contents of the cup into his face. Then while Russell was washing the feces and urine out of his mouth and eyes, Barnett yelled something like, "now you have a reason to give me bad marks and take my visits." Despite or maybe even because of his attitude Brett Sheldon Russell is now a sergeant.#brettrussell #multnomahcountyjail #harassment

One Inmate with Property Equals an Inventory of One Bag of Property

At the Federal Correctional Institution in Sheridan, Oregon (FCI Sheridan) inmates that come in with a lot of property have it inventoried by bag count. For instance, when I arrived with two bags of legal material and one of them was taken by the U.S. Marshals my property receipt said that I had one bag of legal materials. The receipt was signed "Hiebenthal" so I can only guess that it must have been signed by either Joseph or Ashley Hiebenthal. So, who cares? I mean, I got what I needed to prove one bag was missing and I eventually recovered that bag from the U.S. Marshals at the courthouse, so what is the problem? The problem I have is that the inventory should have more details to it than just one bag. At least a count as to the number of folders in it. They can't inventory exactly what the legal work is about without reading it, so I would not expect them to even scan the legal material, especially since doing so outside of my presence is illegal, but the property receipt should reflect more than just how many bag there were. What is funny about this is that the property receipt did not include anything hidden in the legal material that got past them. Stuff like prescription muscle rub cream from another facility and another inmate's identification card.#fcisheridan #josephhiebenthal #ashleyhiebenthal

Deputies Jon Burnett and Marco Reyes are NOT Doctors!

Multnomah County Sheriff's Deputies Jon Burnett and Marco Reyes are not doctors, so why were they overruling a doctor when it came to treatment of an inmate's broken arm? That is a good question that I have yet to hear a legitimate answer to. In 2017 they took me to Oregon Health Sciences University (OHSU) from the Multnomah County Detention Center (MCDC) for a follow up. I had previously sustained a broken left humerus when Deputy Timothy Barker intentionally twisted my arm until the bone snapped into two pieces. Deputies were told to bring me back within a week and that translated to five weeks. When I finally got my follow up the doctor said that there was still a chance that my arm would not heal crooked. The doctor then tried to give me a sarmiento brace but Deputies Burnett and Reyes stopped her. They told the doctor that I could not have the brace that I needed in the jail just because it contained metal. So apparently someone decided that these deputies are better qualified to determine the medical needs of inmates than a doctor. It is not uncommon for inmates to be given medical equipment that contains metal. Walkers and canes are good examples. Both of those things can be used as weapons far easier than a brace. Yet, for whatever reason I would only be allowed to bring a sling back to the jail. That sling obviously was not enough to keep my arm from healing crooked because it is still crooked.#multnomahcountyjail #jonburnett #marcoreyes

Complete Absence of Evidence Defeated Wendy Muth's Assault Claim

Assault charges filed against an inmate by Deputy Wendy Muth of the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office (MCSO) could not be substantiated due to lack of evidence despite her every opportunity to gather any evidence that existed and her knowledge that doing so would be necessary to sustain the charge. This conclusion can be made based on the facts. The facts are that no evidence was produced, all law enforcement officers know the importance of documenting physical injuries if the occur, and she had plenty of time to photography injuries or seek medical attention. The case in question involved an inmate that threw a handful of spicy chips in the faces of deputies that were entering his cell to take him to solitary confinement. The inmate quickly became cooperative once the deputies made physical contact with him in the cell, the deputies gave him wedgies while he was trying to walk with them to disciplinary, and one of the deputies broke his arm while he was face down on a mattress in the solitary cell. Muth was only involved in the initial cell extraction and not the arm breaking. Still, she lied to help her fellow deputies try to make it look as if the broken arm was the result of taking control of a combative inmate. Specifically, she said that she was kicked, slipped on the spicy chips, and fell to the ground. Her exact words were, "I got kicked high in the stomach by Inmate Sullivan's foot. It put me off balance and as I stumbled to regain my footing I slipped on the broken up chips on the cell floor and fell backwards on to my bottom." She later told a detective that she experienced pain on a scale of 4-5 on a 1-10 scale. That formed the basis for a federal indictment filed by Assistant United States Attorney (AUSA) Greg Nyhus charging the inmate with assault on a federal officer resulting in bodily injury. Nyhus concluded correctly that the inmate was in federal custody pursuant to a contract with the U.S. Marshals and the MCSO, so there was federal jurisdiction, had she really been kicked there would have been an assault, and had injuries been shown Nyhus' burden would have been met. The case fell apart when the MCSO was forced to admit that they had no pictures of any injuries suffered by Muth and that Muth never sought medical attention. Nyhus still persisted with the injury claim saying that the federal statutes define injuries to include physical pain no matter how fleeting or temporary, so a claim of pain is a claim of injury. The problem with that is that she claimed to have experienced pain on a scale of 4 or 5 out of 10 and described the cause of the injury as something that would leave a mark. Defense counsel shared the records with Dr. Stanley Sheridan who is regarded as a bruise expert. Sheridan concluded that if someone were to fall on their butt and experience pain as she claimed that there would be a visible mark and bruising afterwards. The fact that Muth failed to document her alleged injury was a fact that the government could not overcome because all jail guards know the importance of documenting injuries. Another fact weighing against her was her weight. As anyone can tell from her picture she is a large woman. According to Sheridan fat bruises easier than muscle, so while some people might conclude that she had plenty of natural cushioning to protect her bottom from bruising, the truth is the opposite. Someone as fat as her landing on her butt as she described would not escape without bruising. That is a medical fact. Eventually Nyhus was replaced by a different prosecutor that offered the defendant time served if he pled guilty to assaulting a federal officer without bodily injury. The defendant took the deal and made clear at sentencing that all he did was throw chips. Muth is now being sued for her role in the cover up of the arm breaking. The claim against is defamation for lying in her incident report. The incident report is being uploaded as a pdf with this report.#wendymuth #multnomahcountyjail #gregnyhus #liars #assault

Sheriff's Deputy Caught Making Out with Jail Medical Technician

A Sheriff's deputy was caught on camera making out with a woman that works as a medical technician at the same jail that he works at. The incident came to light after someone posted a picture of the incident on Facebook. Both people in the image work at the Multnomah County Detention Center (MCDC) in Portland, Oregon. The man on the right is a Multnomah County Sheriff's Office (MCSO) deputy and the woman on the left is employed by the Multnomah County Health Department as a medical technician or drug mule that walks around the jail with a cart full of drugs and passes out medication to inmates. The male in the image has been positively identified as MCSO Corrections Deputy Timothy Barker. The female has been identified as a woman born as Erika Stanley.#multnomahcountyjail #timothybarker #erikabarker

Inmates Denied Gabapentin in Local, State and Federal Facilities

The Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP), Oregon Department of Corrections (ODOC), and local county jails in Oregon have been systematically denying Gabapentin to inmates over the past three years for the purpose of eliminating it from correctional facilities entirely. That would not be a problem if they were replacing it with something equally effective but they are not. What is Gabapentin? Gabapentin (brand name Neurontin) is a drug commonly prescribed to treat nerve pain, seizures, and restless leg syndrome. It is also prescribed for mood enhancement sometimes. Most prescriptions are for nerve pain. That at least was the case at USP Victorville in 2016 when every inmate prescribed Gabapentin was switched to Cymbalta overnight. The problem with this, as I would learn the following year, is that Cymbalta does almost nothing to treat nerve pain. In 2017 I was an inmate at the Multnomah County Detention Center (MCDC) in Portland, Oregon where I was prescribed Gabapentin for nerve pain in my neck. I did not ask for Gabapentin. It was recommended by Dr. Angelina Platas and I tried it. Overnight my neck improved significantly. When deputy Timothy Barker broke my arm a couple months later I was in agony for weeks until a pain specialist came in and doubled my Gabapentin. That significantly reduced my arm pain. In that case my left humerus was snapped in half and there is a large nerve near the humerus that was also damaged. Unfortunately, my relief was short lived because less than a month later the U.S. Marshals came and took me to the Federal Correctional Institution in Sheridan, Oregon (FCI Sheridan) where I was only given my prescribed dose the first day. After that they tapered me off over just a few days and gave me Cymbalta. As a result my nerve pain gave me several more weeks of agony. I tried reasoning with Dr. Amador Cantu because my understanding was that they were not supposed to screw with medication that people were brought in on. Cantu nearly laughed in my face, told me that BOP policies trump whatever policies local jails have, and that he never gives anyone Gabapentin. Had he simply continued my care I would have been just fine. In early 2018 I was transferred to the Columbia County Jail in St. Helens, Oregon (CCJ) where I asked head nurse Nancy Ronan to look at my records and get me back on Gabapentin. She said that they do not give Gabapentin there and would not put me back on it. Nancy had the bedside demeanor of an iceberg. In August of 2018, around a year after MCDC doubled my Gabapentin, I arrived at MCDC again and asked to be put back on Gabapentin for my neck. I was told that the policy on Gabapentin had changed and that nobody would be put on it unless they came in on it. I told them that since I was already on it at their facility that it should be continued, but they basically said that because I was transferred and taken off it that the reset button had been hit. Had Dr. Cantu just continued my medication I would have been just fine. There was an inmate in my unit that still got Gabapentin for something and he told me how the ODOC was doing the same thing in state prisons. I had been looking up Gabapentin in the Sheridan law library and read several cases in which inmates in state prisons in other states had complained about being taken off it. Upon my release I went to a real doctor who put me on it and I am on it to this day. My real doctor agrees with me and what the jail doctors said before they started finding excuses not to give me Gabapentin. That nothing treats nerve pain like Gabapentin. Certainly not Cymbalta. Why Do They Systematically Deny Adequate Nerve Pain Management? The denial is to keep inmates from getting high. Inmates figure out which medications can be used for intoxication and seek them for the purpose of getting high or selling them to other inmates to get high. In the BOP most inmates that were on Gabapentin got it by faking nerve pain or got more than they needed by exaggerating their symptoms. At USP Victorville the going rate for Gabapentin was $5 for 3600 mg that if taken at once would result in a high that people compare to that of Marijuana or alcohol but not exactly that lasts all day. So, someone decided that it is more important to keep people from getting high than it is to keep them from being in pain. There is something basically wrong with that on a human level.#bophealthservices #multnomahcountyjail #fcisheridan #amadorcantu

Ricky Irizarry Credited for Helping Feds in Cartel Hit Case

According to the media, Ricky Irizarry agreed to cooperate with the government as part of a plea agreement after his DNA was found in a van that he stole. That van was eventually used as a getaway vehicle in cartel hit. After searching his phone they found their star witness Cristovaho Diaz, who is the one that really spilled his guts and did the most damage. As a result of people failing to keep their mouths shut a guy is doing 30 years that will likely result in the now 60 something year old man never getting out of prison and the woman behind the entire thing got something like 8 years thanks to DeJoe being able to keep his mouth shut. Had Irizarry and Diaz been solid guys like DeJoe they never would have figured out who shot Gerardina Garcia.#rickyirizarry #cristovahodiaz #murder

A Man Will Die in Prison Because of Cristovaho Diaz

Cristovaho Diaz put a man in prison for thirty years with his mouth and because the man he ratted on is in his 60s he will probably die there. Everything would have been perfect had it not been for a cigarette butt and Cristovaho. The cigarette led the cops to Ricky Irizarry who had stolen the van that the cigarette butt was in. Irizarry told the police that he had given the van to Cristovaho Diaz, so the police went to talk to Diaz. The cops were not even looking at his as a suspect until he told on himself and everyone else involved. He told the police that he gave the van to a hitman to use in a job. A job for which Diaz was the getaway driver. He probably figured they would find a way to pin it on him so he figured he might as well start talking. As a result he got just 5 years and was released years ago. "The killer would not have been identified, charged or convicted if it had not been for the cooperation of Mr. Diaz," First Assistant Prosecutor Murray Talasnik said.#cristovahodiaz #rickyirizarry #murraytalasnik #murder

Nevada Southern Detention Center Fails to Provide Inmates with Meds.

The Nevada Southern Detention Center (NSDC) in Pahrump, Nevada fails to provide in-transit federal inmates with prescribedmedication unless the medication is transferred with them from their previous institution. This author learned this the hard way by being denied medication for several days while incarcerated there en-route to the United States Penitentiary in Victorville, California (USP Victorville). The staff at NSDC provided some medications but would not provide others. Their excuse was that the other medication should have been sent by the Receiving and Discharge (R and D) staff at the Federal Detention Center in Sheridan, Oregon (FDC Sheridan) because it was the previous institution. That does not justify failing to keep important drugs in stock at NSDC just in case an inmate arrives without needed medications. They give to inmates awaiting trial in Nevada everything their CoreCivic "doctor" prescribes, but they will not give needed medication to inmates that may stay there a week or more waiting to be transported elsewhere. As a result this author experienced withdrawal symptoms that included e insomnia, nausea, headache, diarrhea, vomiting, dizziness, and irritability. The Corrections Corporation of America (CCA) now known as CoreCivic plays a dangerous game. This author suspects cutting costs by not giving in-transit inmates expensive medication that CoreCivic would have to pay for to be the primary motivation for this practice. The medication I needed, even in the generic form, is an expensive drug and most of the inmates at NSDC are in-transit because NSDC is the main transport hub for the Western Region of the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP). Most inmates being moved in the Western Region are routed through NSDC. How many people do they hurt? You do the math. In the video below you can hear a prisoner describe the situation in Pahrump. By coincidence this author has met this person before and he seems like a descent and intelligent person. He was eventually acquitted of all charges in one case and his other case was dismissed for prosecutorial misconduct, so keep in mind this is an innocent man.#nevadasoutherndetentioncenter #corecivic #cca #privateprisons

Amber Guyger Convicted of Murder: Ex-Dallas Cop Killed Her Neighbor

Amber Guyger, a former Dallas Police officer, was convicted of murder today for killing her neighbor. Her conviction breathes hope into the public by showing that white police officers don't always get away with murdering unarmed black people. In this case she was not even on duty and tried to convince a jury that she thought her neighbor was in her apartment when she went into his apartment and shot him. The victim, Botham Jean, was eating a bowl of ice cream when he was gunned down, so even if he had been in her apartment deadly force would not have been necessary. I mean a burglar eating ice cream is definitely an unwelcome surprise but I can't picture a reasonable person pulling a gun, saying "put your spoon on the floor" and then shooting him. This looks like someone that thought she could get away with killing someone she didn't like just because as a police officer she knew the law and how investigations work. She will most likely spend the rest of her life in prison. As an ex-cop she will most likely get beat up or worse at least once even though she will have to be in protective custody. That is because even PC cases have a hierarchy where ex-cops are at the bottom with child molesters. She will probably have to pay rent to a gang to protect her long term to avoid spending the rest of her life in solitary confinement.#amberguyger #murder #bothamjean #mesquitepolicejail

Edward "Eddie" Bance: Head of SIS and Assistant FBI Spy

Lieutenant Edward "Eddie" Bance is the head of Special Investigative Services (SIS) for the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) at the Federal Correctional Institution in Sheridan, Oregon (FCI Sheridan). As head of SIS he is in charge of mail censorship and theft as well as spying on inmates. At times he assists the FBI with spying on innocent inmates being investigated for crimes they did not commit even though he knows that there is no credible basis for the allegations. In one case he assisted serial snitch Scott Joseph Franklin with his efforts to frame the founder of CopBlaster.com for a fake murder for hire that he never solicited. According to FBI paperwork being uploaded with this report, Bance along with FBI Special Agent John Mandrafina were the ones that interviewed Franklin. Franklin was later convinced to wear a wire on his cell mate. The results of the investigation were that although the owner of CopBlaster.com does not like Judge Marco Hernandez, no evidence beyond the work of crackhead supports any claim that he ever tried to hire a hitman to whack Judge Hernandez. Now, some might respond to this by saying things like "so what, wasn't he just doing his job?" or "shouldn't the FBI be to blame for this?" Both responses have merit but what is bothersome about the Franklin paperwork is that nowhere does it include any statements made by Bance about Franklin's history of assaulting staff or making false statements. When Bance received word that Franklin was making these accusations he should have put a stop to them going any further because Bance knows that Scott Franklin is not a believable witness. Even if he could not stop the FBI he should have at least made enough of a point about Franklin to be worth mentioning in the paperwork. While under investigation Bance directed his subordinates to spy on the Cop Blaster and censor his mail. As a result efforts to send out posts to be put on this site resulted in mail theft and incident reports by the likes of SIS officers David Prock and Michael Johnson. This was completely unnecessary and in this author's opinion a violation of the First Amendment because although it is well known that mail is subject to inspection, inspection should not lead to censorship unless the mail contains contraband or constitutes some sort of unlawful activity.#eddiebance #fcisheridan #sis #shu #fbi #censorship #spying #theft
