CASE #1a: We have our court date
Hi everyone,
this is just the first in a series of posts centered around tracking our progress in various cases that we are working on so you can see first-hand how this works and so we get practice. Again remember, we don't have a ton of experience with this stuff, but at least we're going to stand up for what we know to be right and the constitution is in plain black and white.
Only thing to worry about is that as usual the theory is great on paper, but in real life, this stuff is a bit muddy, especially with stubborn judges and crooked cops/lawyers who will do everything in their power to railroad you.
Anyways, this case is for a member of the organization and good friend of mine, Mike, who received a ticket in the mail several weeks ago for running a red light. One of those camera tickets that seems to clearly prove his guilt.. or does it? This happened at the intersection of HWY 190 and Fort hood road where McDonald's is located.
The court date is set for august 27th, giving us about 2 weeks to prepare.
Follow and see what happens. in the next blog posts, I will go through what our strategy will be.

Easy out #2: Never a Fair trial
This is a fairly quick post because even a fourth grader can understand this. The constitution grants every citizen the right to a fair trial where there cannot be a conflict of interest and the whole matter should be presided over by an independent third party.
Now try this for a fair trial. A private citizen defendant Vs State prosecutor & city cop, presided over by an "independent" state judge. Do you now understand how this system is set up for the authorities and not to protect the citizens?
the person prosecuting and the judge are both state employees who both belong to the BAR association. How can there possibly be a fair trial in these circumstances?
