Judge Gloria Dumas, Attorney Leo Haffey, Nashville TN, Political prisoner, Dumas rogue judge?, Nashville corruption, Obama thugs, Disciplinary action

In an effort to get to the truth about the arrest, incarceration and withholding of bond for Nashville attorney Leo Haffey, I have explored the facts and major players surrounding this troubling case. Since one of the players is Gloria Dumas, a Nashville judge, and Leo Haffey requested that she be recused for biased behaviour and we have been at the mercy of so many bad judges, exposing the truth about Judge Dumas became more important.
Someone else investigating this case indicated that Judge Gloria Dumas may have a feminist agenda. Since that is hearsay, I wanted more tangible evidence. First examine the charges filed against Leo Haffey.

Details of Leo Haffey arrest 

The consistent theme in this surreal case is that Leo Haffey has openly spoken out about and questioned Barack Obama. I believe that Haffey wrote the first motion for Orly Taitz. The Haffey family has emphatically stated they were pressured and Harrassed by Obama supporters. Some of these people are involved in the legal profession. When one considers that a very high percentage of attorneys  and law firms voted for and supported Obama, this is more believable. Leo Haffey also spoke out about corruption in Nashville.

Attorney Leo Haffey, arrested based on suspicious affidavits and held without bond and benefit of witnesses and records, prepared this motion in jail and filed it.

 

LeoHaffeyJailMotion2

 

Leo Haffey states in the motion:

  • He was not allowed to call any witnesses.
  • His bond was revoked.
  • He was kept in jail without access to his records.
  • He believes that judge Dumas is biased based on her statements and rulings.
  • He requests that Judge Dumas be recused

So why should anyone believe Leo and Question Judge Dumas?

  • All of those close to this case have consistently stated they were pressured by Obama supporters.
  • A request was submitted to the Nashville District Attorney’s office regarding pressure from legal professionals who suppport Obama.
  • Judge Dumas has supported the Democrat party, including monetary gifts.
  • Judge Dumas, as reported on this blog yesterday, was cited by News Channel 5 for unprofessional and illegal activities.
  • Judge Dumas was presented with formal charges on September 21, 2009 by the Investigative Panel of the Tennessee Court of the Judiciary. Exerpts of the charges are presented below.

The following text was extracted from the PDF file. The original PDF file link below should be used to insure accuracy.

“1. Following a full investigation authorized under the provisions of Tennessee Code Annotated 9 17-5-304(b)(3), the three judge investigative panel composed of the Honorable Pamela Reeves, the Honorable Jean A. Stanley, and the Honorable Dwight E. Stokes found, pursuant to Tennessee Code Annotated 5 17-5-304(d)(2)(A), that there is reasonable cause to believe that the Honorable Gloria Dumas has committed judicial offenses alleged herein in violation of Tennessee Code Annotated 5 17-5-302, and directed disciplinary counsel to file formal charges pursuant to Tennessee Code Annotated § 17-5-304(d)(2) (A).

2. The Honorable Gloria Dumas, at all times relevant herein, was a judge of the General Sessions Court of Nashville and Davidson County, Tennessee, having taken the oath of office following her election in 1998.

4. Judge Dumas has consistently failed to attend her dockets and extensively used special judges to hold her dockets. These special judges were appointed in a fashion that fails to meet Tennessee law. These appointments fail to comply with Tennessee Code Annotated 5 16-1 5-209.
Tennessee Code Annotated $ 16-1 5-209 provides, in pertinent part, as follows:”

In 2009 through March, Judge Dumas has made twelve (12) such appointments with many of these appointments being made to the same attorney. All of these 2009 appointments were made after notice to Judge Dumas that such appointments failed to meet state law and evidence intentional misconduct.”

 

“5. Tennessee Code Annotated tj 16-15-5002 provides, in pertinent part, as
follows:
5 16-15-5002. Outside practice of law

practice of law or any other employment which conflicts with the performance of their duties as judge.
It is alleged that by her frequent absence from her duties as General Sessions Judge, Judge Dumas has willfully failed to “devote full time to the duties of such office.. .”
6. The above-described conduct, actions andlor inactions of Judge Dumas set forth in Counts I and 11, inclusive, constitute multiple violations of the Code of Judicial Conduct, and as such, subject her to the sanctions provided by the provisions of Tennessee Code Annotated 5 17-5-30 1, including violation of the following:”

 

“7. In addition, the above-described conduct, actions and/or inactions of Judge Dumas set forth in Counts I and 11, inclusive, constitute multiple statutory violations of Tennessee Code Annotated as hereinabove described, and as such, subject her to sanctions due to the misconduct provisions of Tennessee Code Annotated 5 17-5-302, including violation of the following:

Count III

“8. It is alleged that in November of 2005 Judge Dumas hired as her court officer her daughter and authorized her to be paid a salary commensurate with her assigned duties when she had no experience or training for this position and this selection was made without competitive consideration of qualified applicants. Judge Dumas’ daughter served in this position for approximately one year.”

“9. The above-described conduct, actions and/or inactions of Judge Dumas set forth in Count I11 constitute multiple violations of the Code of Judicial Conduct, and as such, subject her to the sanctions provided by the provisions of Tennessee Code Annotated tj 17-5-301, including violation of the following:

I will be contacting the Tennessee judiciary committee members and Nashville District Attorney’s office to demand that Leo Haffey be released immediately on bond.

I was first notified of attorney Leo Haffey’s arrest on September 19, 2009. Here is the email I received:

“Why is Leo the Lawyer in Jail in Nashville?
Leo the Lawyer (Leo Haffey) is an attorney from Nashville, TN who is a tireless patriot familiar to many of us on the Internet and various blogs.

The official charges are assault. His bond was revoked. No one has been injured and there are serious questions about the political motives of his accusers who are politically powerful liberal Democrats.

Attempts are being made to administer anti-psychotic drugs to Leo even though Leo says there has been no diagnosis established.

He was not allowed to call his wife or daughter in his defense, however the prosecution has called them as witnesses for the prosecution.

I don’t know enough about this case to speak authoritatively but I do smell a rat.

I established this blog as a showcase for some of Leo’s writings and to provide an information hub for his family, friends, and supporters.

If you would like to post articles, comments, or good wishes to Leo please contact Aristotle the Hun”

 
http://freeleohaffey.blogspot.com/

I spoke to Haffey’s wife a few days later and another time.  She gave me an overview of what had transpired. At no time did she ever express that she was afraid of her husband. She emphasized that she and her family had been pressured and threatened by people in Nashville, neighbors and people in the legal profession who were Obama supporters. A fellow blogger with a background in marriage and family counseling and related court cases,  Aristotle the Hun,  has been in touch with Leo Haffey and his wife. This gentleman and I have been in regular contact including a lengthy conversation today.

So far, everything I have been told by Haffey’s wife and  Aristotle the Hun has been proven true. A complaint was filed with the Nashville District Attorney’s office regarding pressure put on the Haffey family by local legal professionals. Today I called the Nashville DA’s office and spoke with Natalie Broadway, who was allegedly contacted via email to initiate an investigation. Ms. Broadway could not answer my questions and passed me on to her boss. I left a voice message and have not received a response.

This whole matter has smelled badly from the beginning and now smells even more. I am presenting below some documents and information on this case that will help clarify it.

Three affidavits below echo what I was initially told, that the incidents involved neighbors and that no one was hurt. It never made sense that Leo Haffey was held on no bond under these circumstances. It makes less sense now unless the judge who was apparently recused was indeed biased, politically motivated or very misinformed. I do know that Leo Haffey was evaluated soon after his arrrest and found to be no harm to himself. He also is being held in a minimum security facility.

As the old saying goes, there are two sides to every story, we will not make this a witch hunt. However, something is wrong with this picture. We need to help Leo Haffey get out on bail and be allowed to have adequate representation by himself or another impartial attorney.

As you read the following affidavits, be reminded that Leo Haffey and his two accusers are neighbors. They live in a condominium complex and apparently share parking access. Also the term prosecutor means the person filing the charges.

WARRANT NUMBER: GS436425  04/30/2009 19:27:51
Filed by Traci Horst, who is apparently the wife of attorney Brent Horst.

“On 4/30/9 at approximtely 1715 hours, Ms. Horst arrived home and went to the back of her vehicle to assist her child out of the back seat. Mr. Haffey, on a 2001 Black Honda CMX Motorcycle [5696ZV] pulled up behind Ms. Horst’s parking space, pointed his motorcycle in her direction and began “reving” the engine repeatedly. Mr. Haffey then eased his motorcyle in her direction as she was assisting her daughter out. Ms. Horst told him that he was scaring her but he continued. Mr. Haffey then slowly followed them to the exterior stairs with his motorcycle. Ms. Horst stated that a similar incident occurred on 12/10/8 [08-847049] in which Mr. Haffey swerved his vehicle at her vehicle in the parking lot of their condominiums.”

“On Wednesday April 29, 2009 at 2:30 p.m. the prosecutor was driving on Higland Park Dr. when the defendant who was driving in the opposite direction did knowingly and recklessly swerve towards the prosecutor’s vehicle. The defendant was looking directly at the prosecutor just prior to swerving and then honked his horn immediatly after. The actions of the defendant put the prosecutor in fear of imminent bodily injury. The prosecutor has had numerous confrontations with the defendant who is her neighbor. The prosecutor believes that the defendant is intentionally intimidating her because of prior conflicts between them. This event took place on Highland Park Dr. in Nashville (Davidson County) Tennessee.”

“On Monday 05/11/2009 at 12:20 pm The defendant was sitting on his porch with his dog when the prosecutor (who lives in the condo next to the defendant) attempted to leave her parked car and enter her residence.The defendant, along with his dog abruptly stood up and walked toward the prosecutor in an “aggressive” manner. The dog was reared up on it’s bag legs straining against it’s leash and barking. The defendant let the dog get to within approximately 1 foot of the prosecutor before pulling it away from her. The prosecutor has had numerous confrontations with the defendant in the past and felt like the defendant was going to have his dog bite her. The prosecutor believes that the defendant is intentionally intimidating her because of prior conflicts between them. The defendants actions put the prosecutor in fear of imminent bodily injury. This event took place at 6954 Highland Park Nashville (Davidson County) Tennessee.”

One thing should be obvious, this should fall into the category of he said she said. However, the more one examines the details, it becomes increasingly apparent that something is wrong with this picture.

The link for the cases and affidavits can be accessed here with this input:

Leo Haffey being incarcerated wihout bond for the controversial, minimal infractions, has troubled me. There has been some controversy as to the reason. A recent inquiry made to the Nashville jail indicated that the bonding company withdrew. However, from the evidence I have, it appears that the original judge, Gloria A. Dumas, ordered no bond. It was pointed out to me that Judge Dumas may have a feminist agenda. I have no corroboration of that as yet. However, Leo Wrote a motion on a scrap piece of paper from his jail cell. In the motion he asked for judge Dumas to be recused. That apparently has happened. Here is a copy of the handwritten motion.

LeoHaffeyJailMotion
Leo Haffey not only spoke out about Obama, he wrote of corruption in Nashville, Tennessee.

It is apparent that Leo Haffey should be released on bond. If not, a Writ of Habeas Corpus should be filed.

The withholding of bond, coupled with the suspicious affidavits, coupled with the charges against legal professionals who support Obama, coupled with Leo Haffey speaking out against Obama, makes this a case we must get an answer to. It certainly appears that an American patriot has become a political prisoner.

We must demand answers and justice.

I am not through with this case.

I am not through examining the two affidavit filers.

I am not through examining Nashville corruption.

Oh, and by the way, I am not through with Judge Gloria Dumas.

It seems Judge Gloria Dumas has a little attitude problem.

From News Channel 5,  Nov 11, 2008:

“Judge Admits ‘Issues With Being Late'”

“For more than three months, our NewsChannel 5 Investigates team watched the Metro courthouse, and one judge left people waiting more than any other judge.

That judge, Gloria Dumas,  has been a General Sessions judge for 10 years. Her responsibiities that include issues affecting Nashville’s neighborhoods.”
“Still, when NewsChannel 5 Investigates set up surveillance, we discovered how she really sets her schedule. Often the last to arrive, she’s sometimes the first to leave.

“I’m not going to tell you I don’t have issues with being late,” Dumas admitted to Williams. “I’m not going to tell you I haven’t all my life had issues with being late. It is something that I have problems with, always have had problems with.”

In fact, while she leaves everyday working folks waiting, we discovered Dumas often doesn’t leave her elegant Oak Hill home until well after she’s supposed to be in court.

Usually, she arrives at the courthouse at least 30 minutes late, taking another 30 minutes or more to get on the bench.

“Am I saying that’s my big old flaw? Yeah,” she added. “If you’re looking for perfect, you need to throw me out because I am not perfect.”

On Sept. 10th, Dumas left her neighborhood at 9 a.m. — 30 minutes after court was supposed to begin.

By the time she was outside the courthouse, she was almost 45 minutes late. Then she stopped to talk on the phone.

She talked and talked — until finally, at 9:51, she pulled into the garage — almost an hour and a half late.

“If you have trouble having the discipline to be on time, do you have the discipline to be a judge?” Williams asked.

“I think I’m a very good judge,” Dumas replied.

“Even if you are chronically late?””

http://www.newschannel5.com/Global/story.asp?S=9332811#

It appears that Judge Gloria Dumas has a total disregard for the law

From News Channel 5, March 30, 2009:

“Judges Hire Family in Violation of Ethics Rule”

“A lot of people are looking for jobs these days.

But a NewsChannel 5 investigation discovered that you never had a shot at some jobs in the Metro courthouse.

That’s because some judges hired their relatives — despite judicial rules that actually prohibit nepotism.”

“In Judge Dumas’ case, she hired her daughter, Kim Levitan, in late 2005. Levitan was a college graduate with a degree in fine arts.

“And what made you think that she could do the job?” Williams asked her.

“‘Cause she’s very smart,” Dumas replied.

“Did she have any experience?”

“Did she have any experience in being in the courtroom? No.”

For 10 months, Levitan worked in her mom’s court. The salary at the time: $44,000 a year.

Still, Dumas admits she knew that there were rules against nepotism.

“Because I was bringing her in on a temporary basis, I just did not think it was an issue,” she said.

Williams asked, “If a defendant told you, ‘Judge, I violated the law, but I only did it on a temporary basis,’ would you accept that?”

“I don’t know how to answer a question like that,” Dumas said.

But Cunningham didn’t hesitate.

“Well, I know how to answer it — and I think anybody would know how to answer it. You don’t allow favoritism on a temporary basis or on a permanent basis or on any kind of basis.”

The rules that prohibit nepotism also say that judges have an obligation to report other judges who may be engaged in misconduct.

Yet, instead of speaking up, these judges say their colleagues kept their mouths shut.

Excerped Notes From Leo’s Jail Letters

Sept 28-29, 2009

Admittedly I am in a minimum security cell block, but I only see a handful of the 50+ who deserve to be in Prison. Far too many are falsely accused and many other simply have mental problems that make it impossible for them to navigate the Helter-Skelter Brothers Johnson “judicial” system. I trust that good Patriotic Americans like the 2 million who marched on DC on 9/12 will be appalled by what they see of Brothers, Johnson, Dean & Serpas. As I have always said, the seemingly petty crimes of the crooked politicians of Nashville will make Watergate look like an insignificance. Can you imaging the audacity of letting the BO campaign steal computers from the Nashville Election Commission and then covering it up, not to mention covering up for the child molesters at Al Farooq? Keep the Faith! Leo

I am shocked at the level of corruption in the “legal” system in Nashville. I never dreamed it was this bad. The Duke Lacrosse case pales in comparison and the North Carolina Supreme Court did the right thing, and disbarred DA Nifong. It is so perverse and entrenched here that the reckoning will be very long and messy and don’t have time for it. If I had known 25 yrs ago what I know now, I would never have moved here.

I am ready to go public with all I have on Brothers, Dean, Serpas & Johnson. I will not tolerate having my family, especially, my 11 year old daughter, terrorized by these criminals. I tried to give Terry Johnson a chance to do the right thing. All he did was ignore the child molestation of BO supporters at Al Farooq, as you know. I can’t fathom why he would want to continue to cover up those crimes but I will not. I feel it is my Duty to our Country to do everything I can to protect our Constitution. At this point my primary motivation is to prevent my daughter from having to grow up in a country without Liberty; a country with no Civil Rights. I am prepared to stay in jail until my case is fully publicized nationally. Life outside of jail is no better than life inside jail if we have no Bill of Rights. The criminals in charge of the present government will simply arrest you wout probably cause if you exercise your rights. No Free Speech, Assembly, etc. as they did with me. I never imagined that I would be a Political Prisoner in America. If I had known how diabolical these criminals are I would have simply left the US. It is clearly too late for that now & I fear that the fears of Patriots are about to be realized. I believe that the Citizens Grand Jury is the best, and indeed the only way to restore order, and I hope the CGJ’s are continuing to flourish, according to the Texas model.

So, feel free to publish any and all of the content of my prior emails, letters, posts & comments. It is my most sincere hope that my writings have inspired a few good men & women to save our National form this dangerous peril.

Always the optimist, I am still hopeful that a strategy of bringing an Indictment from a Citizen’ Grand Jury of particularly egregious crimes by BO & co-conspirators, coupled with my original Jurisdiction Brief directly to SCOTUS can result in the LRBO. Keep the Faith! Leo

Sept 30, 2009

Let me emphasize again that the Nashville Judicial System is a Mother Lode for lawsuits for malicious prosecution cases. I am collecting names of other individuals who are innocent and being maliciously prosecuted by the DA, Torry Johnson. As you know, Johnson refused to prosecute known child molesters who were associated with the BO campaign in Nashville. Yet he prosecutes innocent men, based upon false accusations by disreputable people. Also he is covering up for the theft of two computers from the Nashville election commission by the BO campaign…

… The tipping point seemed to e when I wrote about Citizen Grand Juries and exposed DA Torry Johnson’s cover up of Sex Crimes at Al Farooq. Despite all the hardship that has befallen me, I am glad that I spoke out for a peaceful revolution for our Legal Systems. I have just now realized how horribly corrupt the Legal System is.

Sept 30, 2009

I am going to need an out of state attorney. The local attorneys are more or less controlled by the DA & the judges. Lin Woods of Atlanta, Ga is a good one. He defended Richard Jewell, the man who was falsely accused of the Atlanta Olympic Bombing. I will want to have a change of venue to Chattanooga, Tn, since Tom Brothers & DA Johnson are known for rigging juries.

Oct 1, 2009

Another issue for which I may be able to get some support for the NRA, of which I am a member, is that when I was arrested in May, the police confiscated my 12 guage shotgun & my hunting rifle from my home in Nashville without my permission….

…Please thank Phil Berg, Carl Swenson & Citizen Wells, & all the others who are reporting on my predicament. All I ever wanted was to practice entertainment law & exercise my rights to free speech, etc, under the Bill of Rights, but it looks like I have become a Political Pawn…

…There was something gloriously mysterious about a Mass in Latin.. Faith is one of the few refuges that we inmates have. Today the Chaplain led us in a song from Godspell; “See Thee more clearly…Love Thee more dearly…Follow Thee more nearly… Day by Day…”

My case should be a warning to Grand Jurors who want to go pubic; DON’T! Just get the Indictments, serve them on the foreman of the Conventional Grand Jury & on the judiciary and the press ANONYMOUSLY! They can’t arrest you if they don’t know who you are!

If you don’t hear from me again tomorrow night, 10/1/09 then that means that they have sent me back to MTMHI. I could not call you from there last time, but hopefully the bad guys now realize that falsely imprisoning me must makes it worse for them by getting my case publicized by OBAMA CRIMES, CITIZEN WELLS, RISE UP, THE STEADY DRIP, etc. Keep the Faith! Leo the Lawyer.

Oct 6, 2009 Sam speaks: We got a call today from Leo in prison saying he received notification that they will not deliver any of his mail to him. Thus far he has been able to send mail, which has been stamped “unopened.”

“Think UR safe N US?
I was arrested 4 times without probable cause & imprisoned at Middle Tennessee Mental Health Institute. I’m a Lawyer who knows his rights so I forced the “doctors” to release me, but if they can arrest a lawyer without probable cause and falsely imprison him in Nashville, merely because the lawyer was speaking out against Obama, imagine what Obama’s goons will do to the average American who speaks out.

How is what they did to me any different from what the islamo-Fascists in Iran are doing to Freedom Fighters, other than they did not just murder me on the Streets of Nashville?
Mayor Dean, DA Torry Johnson & PC Serpas tried to get me imprisoned in Middle Tennessee Middle Health Institute to try and silence me, to prevent me from exposing their crimes and the coverup of Obama’s crimes in Tennessee.

There is much more to this that I am not at liberty to discuss due to the sensitive nature of the case. All I can say is that this story is much deeper than it appears.

ACORN, Nevada corruption, Harry reid blocks investigation, Las Vegas Review Journal, September 25, 2009, Clark County, Rampant fraud, ACORN corruption

From the Las Vegas Review Journal, September 25, 2009.

“EDITORIAL: Reid blocks ACORN probe

Tracking abuse by political allies could be ‘distracting’
ACORN — the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now — is stinking up Washington.

And this is far more significant than if a suspiciously large number of operatives for a purely “private” outfit had been found systematically bending and breaking the law, because ACORN receives and spends taxpayer money — lots of it — and had carried the imprimatur of official partnerships with the IRS, the Census Bureau … the kind of “cred” that in the political world comes only from “who you know.”

 
Yes, ACORN has friends in high places — friends who are still stonewalling attempts to trace where all that tax money went … perhaps because they know who still has cookie crumbs all over their hands.

It didn’t start with those undercover videos made by a couple of independent filmmakers posing as a prostitute and her pimp, visiting various ACORN offices around the country and getting helpful advice on how to hide their income and “qualify” for a tax-subsidized mortgage to set up a house of ill repute, declaring three of their dozen (albeit imaginary) underage illegal immigrant prostitutes as “dependents.””

“Despite all this evidence and a request in writing by 28 GOP senators — and despite the fact the U.S. Senate voted 83-7 on Sept. 14 to block ACORN from bidding for any more federal grant money — “Senate Democrat Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., is refusing to hold a Senate hearing on ACORN’s activities,” the National Republican Senatorial Committee complained Wednesday.

Mr. Reid replied additional investigations might distract lawmakers from addressing more important matters, including health care and economic recovery.

“It’s become increasingly clear that ACORN may have manipulated tens of thousands of ballots in last year’s federal election — an area where Congress has clear oversight responsibilities — yet Harry Reid won’t lift a finger,” said NRSC spokesman Brian Walsh. “It’s hard to see his latest roadblock as anything but another example of Harry Reid protecting his liberal allies in Washington while remaining out of touch with his constituents in Nevada.”

That’s a politically motivated shot, of course. Stripped of the gratuitous elbowing, however, the question does remain: Do Sen. Reid and congressional Democrats really believe that if they just ignore the big mess their pet bear has dumped in the middle of the room, it’ll somehow stop stinking?”

Christopher Kelly death, investigated as homicide, Chicago Tribune, September 13, 2009, Blagojevich, Rezko, Obama, 8 year sentence, Kelly plead guilty to federal corruption charge

From the Chicago Tribune, September 13, 2009.

“Kelly dies of possible overdose
Authorities say death may be suicide but are investigating it as homicide”

“Kelly, 51, who was to report to federal prison officials this week to start serving an 8-year sentence, died Saturday at Stroger Hospital in what authorities said was a possible suicide from an over-the-counter medication. An autopsy is scheduled for Sunday, and police in Chicago and south suburban Country Club Hills are conducting a death investigation.

Kelly’s death ended a tumultuous year in his life. He twice pleaded guilty to federal charges. He was estranged from his wife. And he faced serious financial problems, partly due to gambling debts. But Kelly indicated he was not going to turn on Blagojevich despite pressure from prosecutors.”

“A street-smart businessman who used connections and savvy to make millions, Kelly parlayed his wealth into power before becoming a member of Blagojevich’s “kitchen cabinet” of advisers. He had been at the former governor’s side through much of his political life since he ran for governor.”

“The Cook County medical examiner’s office said Stroger Hospital officials told them that Kelly apparently died of an overintoxication of salicylate, a drug used in anti-inflammatory and pain relief medications such as aspirin.

Authorities said Kelly was in his 2007 Cadillac Escalade in the parking lot of a lumber yard at 173rd Street and Cicero Avenue in Country Club Hills — a few miles from his Markham office — Friday night when he began vomiting. Sources said a girlfriend of Kelly’s drove him to nearby Oak Forest Hospital of Cook County. The Escalade remained there Saturday afternoon, guarded by police.

A hospital spokesman said Kelly arrived at 11:15 p.m. and was treated and stabilized. But doctors determined he needed more care and transferred him to Stroger Hospital in Chicago, about 25 miles away.

Kelly arrived at Stroger by private ambulance at 5:15 a.m., hospital spokesman Marcel Bright said. Kelly was treated for several hours but pronounced dead at 10:46 a.m., Bright said.

Investigators were still at the empty Forest Lumber yard Saturday night as they looked for evidence. The remote spot, opposite insect-filled cornfields near Interstate Highways 57 and 80, was taped off as officers used flashlights to search on hands and knees.

Country Club Hills Mayor Dwight Welch said detectives were looking for cigarette butts or anything else that might be traced to potential witnesses.

Welch said authorities are investigating whether Kelly overdosed, possibly on over-the-counter medicines. The mayor also said Kelly vomited in the lumber yard’s parking lot.

Oak Forest Hospital officials alerted authorities of Kelly’s whereabouts about 3 a.m., Welch said.

“We are treating this as a death investigation — it’s a possible homicide or suicide, but it’s a high-profile case so we have a homicide level investigation,” Welch said.”

“Kelly made millions as a south suburban roofing contractor who secured million-dollar deals at O’Hare International Airport, Midway Airport and other city agencies. A roofing firm Kelly oversaw, BCI Commercial Roofing, along with an affiliated company, Castle Construction, were paid $7.6 million for work at O’Hare and Midway between 1999 and 2004.”

Citizen Wells clarification

Do not let the fact that the federal prosecutors convicted Kelly because of his corruption involving O’Hare International Airport. Just as most of the corruption Blagojevich had to do with “pay to play” politics in Chicago and Illinois, Kelly was involved with Blagojevich, Rezko, Levine and ultimately Obama in the Planning Board rigging that corrupted the Mercy Hospital deal….Blagojevich, Kelly indictment

Obama’s Rezko Auchi conflict of interest, Nadhmi Auchi, Saddam Hussein, Iraq war, Obama opposed war, Auchi high ranking official in Iraq Oil Ministry, 3.5 million dollar loan to Rezko, Obama home purchase

In case you thought we had forgottten about Obama being guilty of curruption, probably just as guilty as Rod Blagojevich, think again. The Citizen Wells blog series on why Barack Obama should be indicted and arrested will return soon. In the meantime, here is an interesting article for your consideration.

From the Hawai’i Free Press, September 17, 2008:

“Nadhmi Auchi is an Iraqi whose Baathist ties go back to 1959. A formerly high-ranking official in Iraq’s Oil Ministry, Auchi left Iraq at the end of the 1970s. His wealth then grew exponentially as a procurer of arms for Saddam Hussein’s government during the Iran–Iraq war. He is now one of the richest men in Britain. Saddam Hussein in 1995 selected BNP, which later merged with Paribas, as the sole conduit bank handling Oil-for-Food transactions. This Clinton-era arrangement was changed in 2001 by the incoming Bush administration.

Auchi was also a key financial backer for Chicago political fixer and dual US-Syrian citizen Tony Rezko. This writer explained the complex web of relationships in an August 24 article titled, “Iraqi Billionaire Threatens Reporters Investigating Rezko Affair”:

A secret $3.5 million loan from an Auchi company to key early-money Barack Obama fundraiser Antoin Rezko was exposed while Rezko was awaiting trial on fraud and money-laundering charges earlier this year. Rezko’s bail was revoked and police showed up banging on the doors of his Wilmette Chicago mansion to drag him off to jail early in the morning of January 28th. Auchi’s loan to Rezko had come on May 23, 2005 but had not been disclosed to the Court as required in his bail agreement. Three weeks later, on June 15, 2005, Rezko’s wife assisted the Obamas in the purchase of their South Chicago mansion by purchasing a next-door undeveloped lot being sold with the house. 

According to the Times of London, “Mr. Rezko’s lawyer said his client had ‘longstanding indebtedness’ to Mr. Auchi’s General Mediterranean Holding (GMH). By June 2007 he owed it $27.9 million. Under a Loan Forgiveness Agreement described in court, M. Auchi lent Mr. Rezko $3.5 million in April 2005 and $11 million in September 2005, as well as $3.5 million transferred in April 2007. That agreement provided for the outstanding loans to be ‘forgiven’ in return for a stake in the 62-acre Riverside Park development.”

Rezko’s relationship with Barack Obama goes back to at least 1990, when Obama’s law firm did work relating to thousands of now-decaying Rezko apartment units in South Chicago. Rezko was a key early-money fundraiser in Obama’s state Senate campaigns and his failed run at the U.S. Congress.

According to The Times of London, “Mr. Auchi first met Mr. Rezko after the 2003 Iraq war and they have a business relationship.” At the time Auchi was facing the possibility of extradition to France. The Times of London explains: “Mr Auchi was convicted of corruption, given a suspended sentence and fined £1.4 million in France in 2003 for his part in the Elf affair, described as the biggest political and corporate scandal in post-war Europe. He, in a statement from his media lawyers, claims he is appealing against the sentence.”

In 2003, Nick Cohen of the UK Guardian wrote:

Allow me to introduce you to Nadhmi Auchi. He was charged in the 1950s with being an accomplice of Saddam Hussein, when the future tyrant was acquiring his taste for blood. He was investigated in the 1980s for his part in alleged bribes to the fabulously corrupt leaders of post-war Italy. In the 1990s, the Belgium Ambassador to Luxembourg claimed that Auchi’s bank held money Saddam and Colonel Gadaffi had stolen from their luckless peoples. In 2002, officers from the Serious Fraud Squad raided the offices of one of Auchi’s drug companies as part of an investigation of what is alleged to be the biggest swindle ever of the (British National Health Service). With allegations, albeit unproven, like these hanging over him, wouldn’t you think that British MPs would have the sense to stay away?”

 

“Here are some questions reporters should be asking Barack Obama:

Senator Obama: Lehman Brothers owes over $250 million to a bank owned in part by Nadhmi Auchi’s holding company. Auchi was a key financial backer of Tony Rezko. Sources indicate you met Auchi twice when he visited Chicago in 2004. If elected, how will your relationship with Rezko and Auchi affect your policy towards Lehman Brothers?

Senator Obama: There are reports that Nadhmi Auchi was in 2004-2005 seeking US residency while appealing his French court conviction in the ELF-Aquitaine case. If elected, would you look favorably on a US residency application from Auchi?

Senator Obama: You stated that the Lehman bankruptcy shows that Americans cannot afford four more years of the Republicans’ “failed philosophy”. Can Americans afford a President whose home was purchased with the assistance of now-convicted-felon Tony Rezko, a man characterized as having “permanent indebtedness” to Nadhmi Auchi?”

Jim Moran, Virginia Democrat representative, Town hall meeting, Poster, August 25th, 2009, Reston VA, Howard Dean, Wesley Cheeks, Jr, School security officer, This used to be America, It ain’t no more, Video

OrgNatlSocialistsHealthCare

 

*** See Update below ***

Correct me if I am wrong, once they opened this public property up to politicians of the Democrat party, for a public forum, how can they legally exclude opposing views?

 

“This video was taken on Tuesday, August 25th, 2009 at Rep. Jim Moran’s (D-VA) Town Hall meeting on Obama Deathcare (Howie Dean was there too) held at South Lakes High School in Reston, VA.

Many people were left outside when the school filled to capacity. School security officer Wesley Cheeks, Jr. did not like my anti-Obamacare poster which used one of the gone-viral “Joker” graphics.

When I said to Officer Cheeks, “This used to be America!” his response was: “It ain’t no more, OK?”

I feel sorry for Officer Cheeks. He, like many African-Americans are being played by the racist Obama administration. Wake up people. They used to want you only for your votes, but now with the huge hispanic illegals pouring in they won’t even need you for that. Watch those inner city abortion clinics get stimulated though. Democrat and church leaders sure seem to have time and money to build those.

Google “margaret sangar black children eugenics” (no quotes) and find out what’s REALLY behind those Democrat abortuariums run by Planned Parenthood. Democrat eugenicists like Rahm Emanuel and his brother Zeke “Dr. Mengele” Emanuel and John Holdren and George Soros and Mr. Abortion himself, Barack Obama can’t kill enough black babies. The ovens are fired up. Wake up people.

Satan is in da house.”

I have sent an email request to the Reston, VA police requesting the statute allowing the police officer to demand that the poster be taken down.

Jan Schakowsky, Illinois Representative, Illegal aliens, August 24, 2009 press conference, No respect for the law, Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights, What about US citizens’ rights?

Is there something in the water in Illinois?

I have heard from reliable sources that drug use among politicians in Chicago is rampant.

Obviously there is no respect for the US Constitution or rule of law.

And all of this is coming from the “Land of Lincoln.”

So what is Representative Jan Schakowsky of IL on?

She obviously has no respect for the laws of the US!
“From Rep. Jan Schakowsky’s (D-IL) remarks at an August 24, 2009 press conference held in Chicago by the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights.”

Let’s all keep an eye on Representative Jan Schakowsky and unite to remove her from office.
