AN OPEN LETTER
TO
JUDGE CHARLES
JOHNSON, JUDGE ARLENE JOHNSON, JUDGE CHARLES CHAPEL, JUDGE GARY
LUMPKIN and JUDGE DAVID LEWIS
Of the Oklahoma
Court of Criminal Appeals:
Somewhere I have been
taught that the Courts are open to every man, woman and child in
this United
States. Somewhere I have been
taught that every Judge swears on oath to protect the Constitution
of our United
States. That “somewhere” was in
the Springdale
Grade School on
East Pine
Street in Tulsa Oklahoma. Taught by teachers long
since dead; it would appear their idealistic teachings of honor
and patriotism of some of our officials have been buried with
them. I was happy to
follow my three brothers and enlist in our great U.S. Navy when I
became of age to be a small part of those who protect us from
foreign enemies. I
don’t remember being taught about the “Enemy Within.”
Knights in Dirty
Armour. Some less
eloquent call such with terms “Dirty Cops.” “Dirty Prosecutors.” “Crooked Attorneys.” “Dirty Judges.”
Fortunately for us all
there are few in the ranks that meet these qualifications. Judge Thomas of Creek
County is an
mild example; playing with sex toys while setting on the
Bench.
I have been told that 10%
of any organization meet the qualifications of being a rotten
apple. Janet Reno
‘confirmed’ this statement when she referred, April 15, 2005, to
“10% Wrongfully Convicted.”
I still have a recording of that lecture in Tulsa. Before our Marie was
convicted I would have believed the percentage would have been
closer to 5%, but then I am an optimist. I would have certainly
thought that less than 1% in prison; lets make that .1%, were
Factually and Actually Innocent!
You have convinced me
that I am dead wrong.
Janet Reno is far closer to correct. And I am not taking into
consideration Waco, Ruby Ridge, Leonard Peltier
or Sacco & Vanzetti.
The truth cannot remain buried.
As long as I am alive and
able to type I will not allow it to be
buried!

Our Marie is in a cage in
the world’s largest women’s prison. Oklahoma
should be proud of its status of having the highest population of
women prisoners in the world. Arlene, you should
see an obvious disparity here; you are only one of five! Are you {and David} merely
“tokens”?
Our Marie has terrible
penmanship, she is a poor speller, her grammar is frequently less
than adequate and her attorney, Kevin Adams, run with his tail
between his legs when I insisted he use Egregious Prosecutor
Misconduct and Judicial Indiscretion in her appeal. He proposed to me that I
sign a perjured document perverting Justice that I killed Benjamin
to guarantee you would release her. Marie is without funds and,
one thing the public does not know, that she is, as are all
prisoners, limited to having in her possession one [1] cubic foot
of paperwork. She
cannot have volumes of case law, she cannot have daily access to a
law library [which, by the way, is significantly inadequate] and
this presents somewhat of a handicap in her quest for Justice in
your Court or any court, for that matter. Inmates need outmates help.
You have exacerbated her
handicap with one of your “rules” that clearly, on the surface,
circumvents the “Power Of Attorney” law that is older than our
nation. Do you need
to have me recite the definition according to Black’s Law? “Absolutely does not
have to be an attorney.”! “Perform any legal function
or task which the principal has a legal right to do for
him/herself.” “Act on behalf of the principal or
Signer in any legal
circumstance”!
You have no legal authority
to dishonor my signature for my wife. Your predecessors Judge Nix
and Judge Busey honored the legal document of “Power of Attorney”
in a case in 1963. It
was honored by the S.Ct. R.E.Lee v. U.S. in 1889. Your Court Clerk honored
it when I filed the documents for my wife January 3, 2006 and it
is honored throughout the state in every County Court House. Even Judge Post honored
it! The State, Drew Edmondson, did not object to it nor object to
the appeal in any other way.
Period. He
knows the truth. Did
you read the appeal and see what a can of worms it is to Mayes
County and then seek for 101 days some “technicality” that you
feel allows you to escape your duty to uphold the Law?
You do have legal
authority and obligation to administer Law and Justice. You cannot administer
Justice if you refuse to hear a case because an ‘i’ is not dotted
or a word is misspelled or when you may be afraid it will expose
those of your own kind in the lower courts of being less than
honorable servants of the Law. You cannot strain gnats
and swallow camels.
You cannot assume that all lower courts and prosecutors are
honorable.

Want examples? Creek County’s Judge Thompson and Tulsa’s prosecutor David Hall; Oklahoma’s
only Governor to be impeached for felonious activities.
Judge Post has taken
great strides and done a significant good in her quest to prevent
child abuse. This
does not give her the right to send an innocent woman to prison to
die with your blessing.
To allow evil to triumph, good people need do
nothing.
You do great feats and
are deserving of respect.
When you overturned me due to Judge Post’s gross abuse of
our laws you should have known Justice was not her primary
concern; that alone should have given you suspicions of her
improprieties in other cases. Particularly this
one. Prosecutor
Misconduct, also, of equally egregious magnitude, is obvious in my
chapter “Impeachment.”
It is rampant throughout the trial. But Charles Ramsey was
after me, not Marie.
She is just his scapegoat.
There are those who think
I killed Benjamin. Kevin Adams thinks I did because of my
stoicism. I do not
care what people ‘think’ about me. I do care that my innocent
wife has been denied access to Justice because she is caged and
had the inability to timely personally sign her Pro-Se
plea for Justice in your Court. That is why the “Power Of
Attorney” law was created.
Is she truly handicapped? She has been out of her
medications for her stroke for two weeks as of this writing. Request after request has
been ignored. Do you
think I will simply “go away” if she dies? Unless I have another
stroke or fatal infarction or am assassinated I will not go
away. Nor will I
cower in my goal to obtain Justice; if not in your Court, then
next step to the Northern District Court in Tulsa.
Hate me if you will for
my arrogance and fortitude; I do not care. Hate Injustice, as
well. Don’t strain
harmless gnats to swallow camels spitting disease and
Injustice.
You were not formulated
by the Constitutions Convention in 1907 to nitpick phantom
technicalities or protect the criminal element. Your job is to uphold our
Constitution and protect ‘Janet Reno’s’ ten percent of falsely
accused and Wrongfully Convicted from the incompetent and criminal
element we don’t need or want in our lower courts. Do your
job!
It is your legal obligation
and should as well be your moral
obligation.
Respectfully,
John
