State of Oklahoma v. Gilda Marie Schoonover CF-99-00271B

 

 

 

Drew Edmondson, Attorney General:

 

 

There seems to be a “Catch 22” in the summary order (enclosed copy) by Judge Post dated 11-14-2005.  It was filed past the time allotted by the brief filed by Kevin Adams on which this “order” is based.  It is not out of time of the Pro-se filed 10-14-2005 but there is no mention of the Pro-se in the summary order. 

 

It is necessary to file notice of intent to appeal within ten days.  However, this order dated 11-14-2005 does not have any argument to traverse, and thus it is necessary to file the notice to appeal blind to any argument.  To wait fifteen days for any argument would necessitate filing Notice of Intent to Appeal out of time.  Notice of Intent was filed 11-18-2005. 

 

Enclosed is a photocopy of an envelope containing material tantamount to the case.  Note it has not been opened but refused and returned.  This is simply stating, “My mind is made up; don’t confuse me with facts.”  Further, I was under the impression that “conclusions of law” are the responsibility of the judge, not her prosecuting attorney. 

 

The gravamen of the appeal will be the Post Conviction Relief filed by Kevin Adams and the Pro-se Supplement filed by Marie Schoonover. 

 

The Pro-se is rather large as the issues are rather extensive.  It is fact that the court did rule that nothing would cure the omission of cross examination of witnesses which should in and of itself be sufficient for a favourable ruling for the petitioner, Gilda Marie Schoonover.

However, as it is apparent that the judicial system in Mayes County is well trained at straining gnats and swallowing camels and making up the law sua sponte as they go along, I feel it is absolutely necessary to cover ALL issues paramount to seeking Justice.  Dirty laundry should be washed; not hidden under a gnat.

 

We do not need incompetent prejudicial judges or dishonest prosecutors in our State. 

 

The Appeal of the Post Conviction Relief (by Kevin Adams) and Pro-se Supplement denial dated 11-14-2005 by Judge Post is being prepared to be filed within the thirty day time limit Pro-se as the Petitioner is indigent and no attorney for representation has been appointed, though you are listed as “Attorney for Defendant” on Judge Post’s overruling document Nov 14, and baring some serious unforeseeable ‘accident’ or illness no time extension will be requested. 

 

I will include the question: Why did not the lead investigator, George Klatt, testify at any of the hearings/trials?  As George Klatt is the primary accuser, with his Probable Cause Affidavit, why were we never allowed to cross examine him?  Had George Klatt been called to testify to the exculpatory evidence on the probable cause affidavit that vindicates Gilda Marie there can be no doubt the jury could not have ignored this fact, but acquit Gilda Marie.  It was additional “Ineffective Assistance of Counsel” for Kevin Adams to neglect to mention this in his brief concerning denial of our right to cross examine this key State witness for the defendant. 

 

It was ineffective assistance of trial counsel  to neglect to subpoena George Klatt as a defense witness and request to rule him as a hostile witness. Douglas V. Alabama / Pointer v. Texas. Especially in light of the fact that had such an examination been allowed it would have shown the jury and the public in open court that the entire State’s case was constructed on the shallow foundation of a lie.

To support the aforementioned statements, the “Mere fact that counsel does not raise  every nonfrivolous error on appeal is not necessarily evidence of ineffectiveness; however, failure to raise issue warranting reversal, modification of sentence, or remand for resentencing may prove counsel was ineffective.  Banks v. State, Okla. Crim.App., 810 P.2d 1286

 

 

 

 

 

   

 

 

  Respectfully,

 

 

 

 

                                                John Schoonover

                               RR 1 Box 67 Cleveland Oklahoma 74020

                                 for Gilda Marie Schoonover, Petitioner
