Look for our book on shelves in Spring 2014, entitled "EXTREME PUNISHMENT: Solitary Confinement and Execution." The book by Dr. Jean Kennedy and Mary Neal includes full interviews with individuals who experienced or had close contact with people who did experience incarceration in solitary confinement or on death row, including men, women, and children, as well as prison personnel who are impacted by working in such abusive environments. Yes, many children experience solitary confinement in juvenile correctional facilities. Dr. Kennedy will explore and expose the psychological damages caused by these extreme punishments in America.

If you would like to give an interview that might possibly be included in our book, please TRY to contact us via phone or by leaving a commenting at this article or at Blogtalkradio's NNIA1 page, or please email us. Prisoner rights is a censored subject, as you can tell by the attack on our broadcast of October 28, 2013. Prison investors seem to have hired cyberstalkers to interfere with the Human Rights for Prisoners March, but we hope you will persist and make contact. Call (818)572.2947 during each broadcast as well as each Friday, "Open Mic Night" at NNIA1. You can have your say! Please help advocate for human rights by sharing the links above.

The next article in this Human Rights for Prisoners blog is entitled "Six Software Company Execs Wrongly Convicted: IRP6," at the url below
http://humanrightsforprisonersmarch.blogspot.com/2013/10/six-officers-of-software-company.html

For God hath looked down from the height of his sanctuary; from heaven did the Lord behold the earth; To hear the groaning of the prisoner; to loose those that are appointed to death. ~Psalm 102:19-20

Six Software Company Execs Wrongly Convicted - IRP6

It is an important human right to be allowed to prove one's innocence. But what happens when the system wants to prevent that? Would the justice system withhold records wrongly convicted inmates need to file an appeal?

What happens when a software company with five African American officers and one Caucasian develop software that could revolutionize communication between local and federal law enforcement agencies? After the 9/11 tragedy, Americans repeatedly heard officials blame poor communication between agencies as an excuse for why the plans to attack the Twin Towers and the Pentagon were not foiled although there were warnings. A software company decided to develop software that would make it possible for every law enforcement agency to have access to the pertinent information instantly. After several meetings with the Government, the software company was raided by the F.B.I., and its principals were arrested on charges that should have been addressed in civil court, if at all. The start-up company had racked up some bills with temporary service companies that supplied personnel who helped build and revise the software. That indebtedness was used as the feds' excuse to raid the software company and arrest its officers. 

Do the feds really want a way to facilitate easy communication between all U.S. law enforcement agencies to prevent such disasters as 9/11? The software was expected to generate billions; instead the company's executives are imprisoned. Below is a press release from "A Just Cause," the organization that advocates for justice for the IRP6 - six men wrongly convicted and incarcerated, possibly to prevent software development that the federal government said it wanted - or to steal it.

"The case in a nutshell is a corporate debt collection case that got criminalized by an over-zealous FBI agent, John Smith and Assistant U.S. Attorney, Matthew Kirsch in Denver, Colorado," said Rev. Dr. Floyd Harris, Jr., director of National Network in Action of IRP6: Gary Walker, David Banks, Clinton Stewart, Kendrick Barnes, Demetrius Harper and David Zirpolo. 

Could it be a throwback to Tulsa, Oklahoma? More than one person who heard about IRP6 stated, "'They' don't want people of color to have successful businesses and will do anything to destroy them." It is unfortunate that this level of distrust remains in the 21st century or that it may be true. See the comment below from a person at Facebook:

Jovaun Cyrelle Hardin said, "I Know Firsthand This Happens To Black Companies! It Happened to Mine! We Create Something Great and They Destroy Us and Take It!!!! We Have to Fight Against This Its 2013. HOW CAN THIS STILL Be Happening?!?!"

Below is an update on the justice quest for IRP6, the software manufacturers who remain incarcerated. See more information at www.a-justcause.com and www.freetheirp6.org . Please also listen to the two radio broadcasts linked underneath the press release.

**For Immediate Release**

Denver Attorney Files Petition Requesting the Federal Courts to Direct Federal Court Reporter to Release 200 Pages of Missing Transcript Critical to Appeal in IRP6 Case

Petition for Writ of Mandamus Is Filed by Attorney Gwendolyn Solomon for The IRP6, Requesting That The Courts Resolve Issue Of Federal Court Reporter Darlene Martinez Omitting 200 Pages of Transcripts From The Criminal Trial Of Six Colorado Businessmen

Court records show that on October 8, 2013, Gwendolyn Solomon, Appellant Attorney for the IRP6 filed a motion with the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals requesting their intervention in resolving issues surrounding the alleged missing transcript in the IRP6 case. The Writ of Mandamus filed by Solomon requests that the 10th Circuit order Court Reporter Darlene Martinez to release the complete unedited/verbatim transcripts and/or any electronic, digital and audio recordings related to transcript in question. (Petition for Writ of Mandamus 28 U. S. C 1651(a), Fed. R. App. P. 21 - D.C. No. 1:09-CR-00266-CMA Nos. 11-1487, 11-1488, 11-1489, 11-1490, 11-1491 & 11-1492)

Attorney Solomon requested that Judge Christine Arguello, Court Reporter Darlene Martinez, and District of Colorado court clerk employees Charlotte Hoard and Ed Butler be ordered to answer to alleged violations of The Court Reporter's Act, which articulates, “28 U.S.C.A 753(b) makes it mandatory by Congress, that a court reporter shall record all proceedings verbatim in criminal cases held in open court which includes sidebars.” (Court Reporter's Act, 28 U.S.C.A 753(b))

Attorney Solomon further requested that the above mentioned parties be ordered to answer to alleged violations of the Due Process Clause of the Constitution for denying the IRP6 access to unedited transcripts, electronic, digital and audio recordings for the trial. (Petition for Writ of Mandamus 28 U. S. C 1651(a), Fed. R. App. P. 21 - D.C. No. 1:09-CR-00266-CMA Nos. 11-1487, 11-1488, 11-1489, 11-1490, 11-1491 & 11-1492)

The United States Constitution stipulates that no person shall “...be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law.” (United States Constitution, Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments, and The United States Bill of Rights)

The Petition for Writ of Mandamus filed by Attorney Gwendolyn Solomon alleges breach of contract by court reporter Darlene Martinez for failing to attach her original shorthand notes or other original records to her official certificate and promptly file them with the clerk. (Petition for Writ of Mandamus 28 U. S. C 1651(a), Fed. R. App. P. 21 - D.C. No. 1:09-CR-00266- CMA Nos. 11-1487, 11-1488, 11-1489, 11-1490, 11-1491 & 11-1492)

A separate, but related, lawsuit filed by advocacy group A Just Cause asserts, “Ms. Martinez stated that those records (sidebar transcript from IRP6 case) no longer existed and had been destroyed. The negligent reporting practices of Ms. Martinez resulted in the omission of critical information, and made it impossible for her or her agency to produce a complete and accurate transcript of the proceedings. The criminal defendants in the underlying action were third party beneficiaries to the contract between (A Just Cause) and (Darlene M. Martinez) for the purchase of the transcript of the entire trial proceeding in United States v. Banks, et al., case number 09CR266.” (Civil Action No. 13-cv-02260-RBJ-KMT)

The IRP6 case concerns an African-American company (IRP Solutions Corporation) in Colorado that developed the Case Investigative Life Cycle (CILC) criminal investigations software for federal, state, and local law enforcement. The IRP6 (Kendrick Barnes, Gary L Walker, Demetrius K. Harper, Clinton A Stewart, David A Zirpolo and David A Banks) were convicted in 2011 after being accused of mail and wire fraud. The defense argues that key elements of the court transcript, which are key to the appeal, are missing. (D. Ct. No. 1:09-CR-00266-CMA)

Solomon submits in the petition, “Denying access to court files...given the statutory inspection rights granted by 28 U.S.C. 753(b), works an invidious discrimination which cannot past muster under the equal protection pregnant of the Fifth Amendment's due process clause when the important substantive constitutional right of access to the courts is implicated." (U.S. v. Hansen, 956 F.2d 245, 247, 11th Cir. 1992)” (Petition for Writ of Mandamus 28 U. S. C 1651(a), Fed. R. App. P. 21 - D.C. No. 1:09-CR-00266- CMA Nos. 11-1487, 11-1488, 11-1489, 11-1490, 11-1491 & 11-1492)

According to The Guide To Judiciary Policy Volume 6 (court reporting manual for federal courts), Section 140.25, Automated Court Reporter System Application, "The Automated Court Reporter Application (ACRA) automates the submission and archiving of court reporter data." (Guide to Judiciary Policy Volume 6). Section 115.10 of the Guide to Judiciary Policy affirms, "The Judicial Conference endorsed the use of real-time reporting technology by official court reporters in the districts courts". (Guide to Judiciary Policy Volume 6)

"With the technology that the Judicial Conference has made available to the courts, I can't comprehend the idea that the court transcripts are not available somewhere ", states Sam Thurman, A Just Cause.

The Petition for Writ of Mandamus for the IRP6 states, “The Fifth (or Fourteenth if a state is 18 involved) and Sixth Amendments concomitantly provide a criminal defendant the right to present a defense by compelling the attendance, and presenting the testimony, of his own witnesses. Washington v. Texas, 388 U.S. 14, 18-19 (1967); Serrano, 406 F.3d at 1213. This right is a fundamental element of due process of law. Webb v. Texas, 409 U.S. 95, 98 (1972).” (Petition for Writ of Mandamus 28 U. S. C 1651(a), Fed. R. App. P. 21 - D.C. No. 1:09-CR-00266- CMA Nos. 11-1487, 11-1488, 11-1489, 11-1490, 11-1491 & 11-1492)

Solomon asserts in the petition, “The verbatim transcript is material to the issue concerning the violation of the Petitioners Fifth Amendment rights. The failure to inspect or be provided the complete verbatim transcript prejudices the Petitioners defense makes it impossible to perfect their appeal and deprives them of due process of law and warrants a reversal on their convictions.” (Petition for Writ of Mandamus 28 U. S. C 1651(a), Fed. R. App. P. 21 - D.C. No. 1:09-CR-00266- CMA Nos. 11-1487, 11-1488, 11-1489, 11-1490, 11-1491 & 11-1492)

"A Just Cause remains bewildered by length of time it has taken to reverse the IRP6's convictions when there is evidence to suggest that 200 pages of the transcript were omitted," says Thurman.

In the 2002 case of U.S. v. Stephens, 38 Fed. Appx. 998 the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals took only 22 days to vacate a conviction where the missing portion of transcript was unavailable for a defendant to perfect his appeal. "The IRP6 situation mirrors that of the Stephens case, yet the IRP have been incarcerated for over 14 months now", asserts Thurman. "A Just Cause is exploring every available avenue to facilitate the exoneration of the IRP6", Thurman concludes.

The case of IRP Solutions (IRP6) is currently under appeal (US District Court for the District of Colorado, Honorable Christine M. Arguello, D. Ct. No. 1:09-CR-00266-CMA; Case Nos: NO. 11-1487, Case Nos. 11-1488, 11-1489, 11-1490, 11-1491 an 11-1492).

Baldock, Honorable Judge Harris L. Hartz, and Honorable Judge Jerome A. Holmes. Related press releases: http://www.a-justcause.com/#!press-release/c21pq

Days of Action Against Police Brutality Oct 22-23. See you there.

Redwood Curtain CopWatch, along with communities all over the country invites, urges you, to stand up to the police state, reject the school-to-prison pipeline and show your solidarity or rage regarding oppression and violence against any and all people for who they are, where they live, what they believe, or what they have or don't have.
Come out on Oct. 22nd and 23rd, Tuesday and Wednesday, united for Days of Action Against Police Brutality, Repression, and the Criminalization of a Generation. Oct. 22nd is the 18th National Day of Protest and the 23rd is the Memorial Day of Chris Burgess who, at age 16, was shot to death by Eureka Police Officer, Terry Liles, who is still an EPD cop and continues to terrorize kids and adults.
We stand in solidarity with courageous prisoners who went on hunger strike this July for an end to torture in CA prisons, in solidarity with kids who, now, if they get in trouble in school, don't get sent to the principal's office but to the criminal in-justice system, put on probation, setting them up for a life of targeting and lock up- as what happened to young Chris Burgess, pursued and murdered for not reporting to probation. We stand in solidarity with people being targeted for living outside, without shelter, with little resources, while affordable housing and living wage jobs are a joke here; we stand in solidarity with all oppressed people, those being beat down, hunted, stolen from, killed, entombed in concrete cells, separated from their loved ones --for migrating to the U.S., for having little to no resources, for being a person of color, for speaking up against imperialism and human right violations, for being young or trans or gay or simply different.

Silent Christians Are Frauds

The Sword of TRUTH

"Jesus Christ Daily" and "Knowing Jesus" are Google+ Christian groups who rejected my invitation to give Assistance to the Incarcerated Mentally Ill. This is how the mentally ill became the largest class of people in prisons across America and those who are killed most regularly by police. The people who are called by the name of Christ have turned their backs on sick, naked prisoners. "Woe unto hypocrites" ~Holy Bible.

So-called Christians fill the Internet with inspirational messages about my Lord and His great love for mankind, and they claim to love Him. But many Christians show none of the love of Christ for their brethren who they see dying weekly at the hands of untrained police officers or locked in solitary prison cells. Their silence in the face of racism and class consciousness helped to build the prison industrial complex, which largely survives off the imprisonment of our most vulnerable citizens. Jesus Christ has a message for the church:

If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen? ~1 John 4:20. And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say? ~Luke 6:46.

Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it—not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it—they will be blessed in what they do ~James 1:22-25.

And WHAT does the Word say about the sick, handicapped, orphans, widows, and indigent people around us? What does the Word say about prisoners, especially the condemned?

OPEN THY MOUTH for the dumb in the cause of all such as are appointed to destruction. Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy ~Proverbs 31:8-9

Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; and them which suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body ~Hebrews 13:3.

I come with the sounds of mothers crying for their daughters and sons who are cruelly incarcerated in torturous conditions, sprayed with pepper spray, shocked with Tasers, killed with bullets for reason of a common, treatable health condition, and they turn me away! God has a word for hypocrites:

I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not. And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal. ~Matt. 25:43, 46

I shake the dust of "Jesus Christ Daily" and "Knowing Jesus" off my feet. ~Matt 10: 14-15

Join the Lord's work, and Do his Word.

Retired Lockheed Martin Engineer Killed by Police: Eugene Mallory, 80

Lockheed Martin does research, design, development, manufacture and integration of advanced technology systems, products and services. An 80-yr-old man with poor eyesight who worked as an engineer for Lockheed Martin for 43 years was the victim of police violence on June 27, 2013. Police claim they smelled meth outside his window and did a raid. They said the sleeping senior citizen pulled a gun on them, and cops opened fire, killing Eugene Mallory. The coroner released Mallory's body to an out-of-state relative, and he was cremated. Mallory's cremation prevented his wife, Tonya Pate, from getting an autopsy. No meth was found, and Pate denied that Mallory pulled a gun on police.

“He would never point a gun at officers,” she said. “He was taken from me for no reason.”

Pate is suing the sheriff’s office for $50 million. The coroner’s office is also named in the suit.

Wonder what Mallory engineered for Lockheed Martin? Death-by-police is an unusual ending for an elderly, middle-class Caucasian man with a professional background and no police record. Wikipedia reports:

Lockheed Martin is one of the world's largest defense contractors; In 2009, 74% of Lockheed Martin's revenues came from military sales. It received 7.1% of the funds paid out by the Pentagon.

Lockheed Martin operates in five business segments. These comprise Aeronautics, Information Systems & Global Solutions, Missile and Fire Control, Mission Systems and Training, and Space Systems. In 2009 US Government contracts accounted for $38.4 billion (85%), foreign government contracts $5.8 billion (13%), and commercial and other contracts for $900 million (2%). In both 2009 and 2008, the company topped the list of US Federal Contractors.

See the video at the bottom of the news column about the Mallory's home invasion and death at Daily Caller.com, dated October 16, 2013:

___________

Another victim for the October 22nd Coalition, the Stolen Lives Project. The names of many more Caucasians appear on the death-by-police list in recent years, including the elderly and physically or mentally handicapped. Our condolences to Tonya Pete on the loss of her husband. 

Prisoners include persons who never made it to jail or would not have been incarcerated, like Mallory. Learn about the October 22 Coalition at an article in this writer's EXPOSED: FreeSpeakBlog at the link below: "Stand Up for Love - October 22 Coalition"

Note: For some reason, cyber stalkers are interested in this article. Therefore, I repeat the first two paragraphs below:
