Corruption of Mayes County of not to exhume our son!  Why Not?  What do we have to hide?

               What do they have to hide!?

 

          I was awakened by God to write out my plea of innocence and why sometimes Satan gets a foot hold in our lives and can turn it into disaster.  One moment you are the happiest person alive, the next moment you are the saddest because Satan has turned your whole life upside down.  Before you can snap your fingers, that is all it takes to take a good second and turn it into a bad one. 

 

          I have never given up on my freedom from this pit where Satan was allowed to take me because I would not lie for the State of Oklahoma as they wanted me to.  But, because of family and people who were to be called my friends allowed Satan to walk in and the State of Oklahoma offered them my release to testify to take my husband John down for an accident the State of Oklahoma said was a homicide.  They manufactured their own evidence and based their opinions and lies to make a name for themselves and to win an election to keep them in office.  For that reason alone, my John nor I were allowed to testify in the second trial or have people put on the stand to testify in our behalf.  The State of Oklahoma was going to use their rebuttal witnesses to lie to convict an innocent man.  So when God would not allow us to testify, they couldn’t either.  So, it didn’t happen.  They went after me.  I prayed and God answered my prayers, He set my husband free.  Now he is working for my freedom.

          Everything is in God’s timing.  Every day that I spend here is a day closer to God’s timing for my release.  This plea goes out to parents nation to nation, parents take heed to do what I have to say next.  When you feel it can’t happen to you, always know that it can.  This is the truth as God helps me to write it.  I never killed my son, my one and only chance of having a child to call my own.  No one could know what it is like to want a child so badly that they cry day after day because they can’t have one of their very own.  I wanted and couldn’t have a child.  I prayed for 28 years when God dropped Benjamin Schoonover into my craving arms.  My niece Laura gave birth to him and gave him to us because she knew we would love him unconditionally.  He was loved and he wanted for nothing!  We gave him whatever he wanted.  If he were living today he would still have everything he wanted.  Most of all he would have the love of his parents.  John and I loved our son and both of us would have died for him.  We would have died for him as Christ died for us.  There is no difference, that is the love of a parent.  Would you die for your child?

 

          The State of Oklahoma’s lies could have gotten us a death sentence, which this sentence is for both of us.  Every day that I am in here is a death sentence for both of us.  That statement came from Prosecutor Mr. Ramsey’s mouth. 

 

          The love for our son, so deep that when I sat at my husband’s feet and said what I did, Satan got a hold in my life and he destroyed it!  When God gave me John’s love I was the happiest I had ever been in my life.  Then, a beautiful home and a woman’s best friend, diamonds, so many to prove his live for me.  Then He topped it all off with a son.  I was the most happiest I could ever be because John had given me all I ever wanted and what most girls only dream about.  I had it!  When I sat at my wonderful husband’s feet and told him that I worshipped him and our son for all that he had given me.  That gave Satan the opening to enter our lives and destroy us.  First of all, I should have never worshipped in the flesh of man.  John told me not to say that then and I did anyway.  Not long after that we lost it all.  I still have my husband John and the best love I h=ever knew in my life.  I really do know why both of his ex-wives wanted him back in their lives.  They really did, too.  But they will never get him back.  He is a wonderful husband and father.

My son and home as well as other things are all gone now.  The money we had is gone, too.  We have spent $ half-million on trying to prove our innocence.  My husband, with God’s help, has proved his innocence.  Now he is working on   proving  mine. 

 

          He needs help!  Help from an attorney who is willing to help file the documents to the higher courts.  The false child abuse charges against us were dropped.  There was family who wanted to take our son away from us and the Department of Human Services started to investigate.  There was not child abuse and this was proven more than once.  I welcomed and also wanted this brought up in court.  The State threatened us with it to the point our attorneys said no, we couldn’t allow it.  I now know why, the Prosecutor would have lied some more.  We would have really had to fight the child abuse lies, [we already do] but it would have been worse. 

 

          Please hear my plea from all the State’s lies that have torn this happy family apart.  Give us our lives together back.  My husband is nearing 70 years of age and I am 56.  My love for this man has done nothing but grow stronger and stronger through the years, even in our incarceration, in the midst of the lingers of Satan.  There has never been any abuse in our home, the transcripts show no abuse, either.  Only the lies manufactured by an ‘investigator’, prosecutor and Judge.  If I killed my son, this life here would be too good for me, but I never killed my son!  It was an accident!  My mother heard it all on the phone as I talked to her.  The State wouldn’t let her tell what she heard.  She was told by the State all she was allowed to say and what she couldn’t.  It is wrong for the State to do this.  Satan ran with all he could and put me here.  God knows the truth.  I haven’t lost faith in my freedom of all the lies that put me here.  I am not the only innocent woman in this prison.  The cage of hell where Satan lingers to devour all he can.  The State of Oklahoma is very corrupt in what they do. 

 

          Before we even went to trial the judge called me a murderer to the newspapers.  How corrupt is that?  Very corrupt!  Please, parents, take heed because it can happen to you!  When you feel it can’t, it can!  My folks felt it would never happen to their baby girl but it did, and I am innocent and I plead for help from everyone who can help.

           I need an attorney to help file for my release from these prison walls.  From an accident that took my son from me.  I can never hold my son again in my arms except in my dreams at night.  I can’t tell him how much his Mama loves him. 

 

          We were forced from the hospital where our son laid for two more days after that before we lost him.  Not to hold him and tell him we loved him and we needed him to come back to us.  Mayes County left him alone to die without is!  They used that against us in the trial  Ramsey said, “Ladies and Gentlemen, if these parents loved their son why did they leave the hospital where he was at?  That shows guilt.”  No, it does not!  The State’s Investigator, George Klatt, made sure we left the hospital.  We were not welcome there.  He threatened to take us to jail if we didn’t leave!  Ladies and Gentlemen, God says, “You are all in His power to help.”  So I am praying for your help in my release.

 

          These prison walls don’t turn me against God!  I thank my Savior Lord God for all that God allowed to happen to me.  It has opened my eyes to see all the wolves in sheep’s clothing, in many cases ones who I felt were my friends and family.  Now I know where I stand with most of them.  I thank God every day for my wonderful husband, John Schoonover, whom God uses to help get the truth out there.  My Mom, for her help with money for canteen and clothes. 

 

          The State has broke us for now and we need help.  John and I both have tried to get attorney’s help, so far we have not had any luck.  I am pleading for help to prove this case.  It is all in black and white that I am innocent.  The money is gone for now.  Please help us.  Thanks to all who have helped me, mostly God, because god hasn’t given up nor has John or I.  We won’t, either, as long as there is a breath in both of us.  I do feel my freedom is very, very near.

 

          We have asked the State of Oklahoma to exhume our son’s body, which will prove my innocence.  Please, everyone, help us to prove Oklahoma is not a corrupt state.  Help free your innocent people.  With God’s help we will get this done.  Everyone needs to take a stand for your family.

 

 

21

          John Schoonover nor I are afraid of the State [Prosecutor Ramsey] or George Klatt.  Their lies put me behind these prison walls and I am pleading for your help.  I need my case filed in the Northern district in Tulsa, Oklahoma.  Please, will an attorney step forward to help us?

 

          We have nothing to hide.  The State [Ramsey] does not want our son’s body exhumed.  He needs to hide the truth that will set me free.  Exhume our son for the truth.  It is there!

 

          Love to all who have helped to bring this to an end.  My Savior God, my loving husband John, who has done all the paper work, filing, running, and being there for me, John’s friend, John Vernon DuBiel, and Pamela C. Brook, builder of this web site and, under construction, judicialjackasses.com.

Final poignant argument to the jury by Charles Ramsey:

 

Even Dr. Krouse, the Texas Coroner they paid to come up here to testify, said all of these massive fractures; head injuries to Benjamin could not be accidental!

 

But from the actual testimony of Dr. Krouse:  “I find it most unusual that a single fatal injury occurs in a non-accidental setting, particularly if it’s indicative of a moving head impact as opposed to a blow to the head.”  [any bruising?]  “No, sir.  And no old injuries of soft tissues.  No old bruises found.”  “The finding of a single fairly profound, or obviously lethal head injury, and the discovery of the unresponsive and unconscious child on a very hard and unyielding surface, particularly if there is an elevated area near by from which he might have fallen, bring into play the probability that it was an accident, that it was a fall and that it was a single impact that caused this fatal injury.”  “I’ve seen it happen.”

         

Who has motive to keep the truth buried?
