Thanks for stopping by. I am leaving this blog up, but am not posting here anymore on the Civil Rights cesspool that is Delaware.<br /> The conversation has changed since I started this blog, and a great victory has been had but the victory has only lead us to the real fight. <br /> My activism isn't going away, but it is taking a different form. I like to fight, maybe too much.<br /> To be better I must heal myself and learn to heal others. To rise above emotions of fear and anger to experience real courage, not just outrage and bravado. <br /> To do better, I must be better.<br />The human rights crisis of the 21st century in my mind is what we call health care. Our nation is the sickest in the world, and the world is trying to catch up to America.<br /><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQZmZ63jhxk&t=16s">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQZmZ63jhxk&t=16s</a><br /> I have a story of healing to tell, and much work to do still.<br />With faith in the promise of Ezekiel 36:36, that the ruined places would be renewed I have started a social media group dedicated to open and thoughtful discussion of self care and nutrition, which to my mind is at the root of the current health care crisis. <br /> Thank you for your Interest in Delaware's Strange Fruits, if you are inclined to join us on our new path please do.<br /> This is a closed group with a short anti-robot questionnaire and mostly standard FB community rules. <a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/920544144982432/">https://www.facebook.com/groups/920544144982432/</a> <br />Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6181294158854593916.post-34817799657474524562019-04-15T09:22:00.003-07:002019-08-02T14:09:47.606-07:00Is there really KKK in Delaware that threatens direct action? <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Crazy conspiracy talk: <br /> In Early October of 2012 I attended a
forum of minority party candidates, independents and libertarians,
meeting with the minority community, African American, of Dover Delaware
on Forrest Avenue at a facility graciously loaned to us by Kent County
GOP. None of the citizens were there to vote for a third party
candidate. All expressed concerns over a death ruled a suicide and an
apparent attempted lynching being called an unfounded complaint. <br />
In addition there was a linebacker sized gentleman who identified
himself as an intellectual and claimed he had been set up and arrested
for nothing at Delaware State University and that his arrest was loosely
related to the pro-lynching flyers found in Downtown Dover in 2011. <br /> On Dr. King's birthday in 2013 we had a march on Dover to protest against DSU and the abuse of Dr. <a class="profileLink" data-hovercard-prefer-more-content-show="1" data-hovercard="/ajax/hovercard/user.php?id=1464142843&extragetparams=%7B%22__tn__%22%3A%22%2CdK-R-R%22%2C%22eid%22%3A%22ARBOi682enhxTxlHpz43yaHsgOshvrq96DlZ0Ai-ajdJNA2I6Alpap6kuJJi6dfn4jbWyN2iUUzQq_5R%22%2C%22fref%22%3A%22mentions%22%7D" href="https://www.facebook.com/jahi.issa.9?__tn__=%2CdK-R-R&eid=ARBOi682enhxTxlHpz43yaHsgOshvrq96DlZ0Ai-ajdJNA2I6Alpap6kuJJi6dfn4jbWyN2iUUzQq_5R&fref=mentions">Jahi Issa</a>
and against lynching in the first State. Activists from Georgia and
California showed up. Alton Mattox put in an appearance and I met
Ellsworth Johnson Bey of Baltimore. Brother Bey and I performed a
simulcast in downtown Baltimore on WBOL and in Sussex County Delaware on
WGMD radio. It was historical and unprecedented. <br /> Eventually Dr.
Issa beat his criminal charges, I was counseled not to talk about Dr.
Issa on air more than once. I told various apparent products of incest
under duress to kiss my American ass more than once. <br /> Finally they
fired me. Oh well, if you can't get fired by white supremacists,
cowards. and liars who can you get fired by? Seriously. <br /> I am proud to join the alumni of "White Guys Mesmerizing Dullards" aka WGMD Rehoboth Beach. <br /> Things I saw and heard told me what I need to know. <br /> Not my set. Note that I am far far from a 'woke Saint' regarding the state of inter ethnic relations in the United States. <br />
I got death threats by phone, once in the presence of Wolf from the
Independent Party of Delaware ( IPOD), called a n***er lover on FB, <br />
threatened on FB by racists up and down the street, many invitations to
people seeking mutual combat due to my refutation of their overt<br /> hatred for people with dark skin. <br />
Now seven years later, dead men of color are just popping up in and
around SIlver Lake park in DOver, Despite the vaunted camera system from
Advantec Dover Police seem unable to figure out who dropped leaflets
threatening lynching in Dover where their cameras are present. The Dover
Police were unable to caputre any images of a white Dodge Pickup
described by a wtness calling 911 and a victim of an Assault at Silver
Lake Park. <br /> The truck exited the park via Washington Street and
wound up at 32 South Governor's avenue until about mid-day according to
neighbors I canvassed many times over eight months. According to
everybody I interviewed Police made no attempt to apprehend the men
whose vehicle was identified on the 911 tape in real time. <br /> The
brother of Johnny Clark who died in May of 2012 and a witness at the
Human Relations Hearing when Henry Fordham testified about Police
ignoring his complaint was killed on North New St in 2015 at 0345 in the
morning. No arrests, one shot fired. That doesn't seem personal. What
happened to Advantec's vaunted camera system that could show crime in
real time and supposedly had helped deploy a SWAT team? <br /> Was it down for maintenance like the milkshake machine at McDonalds? <br />
Anthony Mcdonald was wanted for murder, his victim's mother drove
around my neighborhood where the murder occurred telling everybody that
the killer would pay. She posted multiple times on an article asking if
Anthony found in the lake was the Anthony wanted for murder.<br /> She
told me she had given State Police permission to crush the car her son
was sitting in when he was murdered before an arrest was made. <br />
While I totally understood I broke off contact with her. I could not be a
party to murder even if the victim was a murderer. Not my thing. <br /> Then Stephone Powell was found was found in Silver Lake. <br /> Then Eric Acevedo-Palencia. <br /> All men of color, all alleged to have or known to have experience with drugs of some sort. <br /> All involved in relationships with white females. <br /> No signs of foul play. Also missing are an 18 year old hispanic man named Jesus and <br /> a thirty year old named Cornell, both fit the same profile and have not yet been found. <br /> According to my sources in Dover Cornell has 'gone ghost' and not been in contact with anyone, <br /> I'm still trying to find him through acquantances and people in the area. <br /> Against this backdrop Dr. Issa's legal case is once again beset with 'difficulty'. <br /> Once again we have a Judge who just happens to see it the State's way and the lawyers <br /> the same Judge appointed to take over the case due to problems with the last lawyer.. well....<br /> not so much. All I can say for sure is that their style is unusual and even though I've only been pro-se<br /> defending myself in criminal court I've beaten better work than they are showing me. <br /> If this is truly their best zealous representation I am definitely suing FB because one of them works for FB<br /> and FB killed my dream of starting a CBD business online by PUBLISHING that it was promoting illegal drugs<br /> and have not rescinded that yet. EASY MONEY BABY. <br /> I suspect the young lady isn't giving it her best effort for whatever reason. I don't care what the reason is, <br /> this is about whether or not some tin hat dictator can have you seized, made homeless and destitute, destroy your career<br /> and family because they don't like the content of your PROTECTED SPEECH. <br />
But if she really wants to claim that she and her two guy pals are
that clumsy I'll try them on for size, I can at least make them <br />
work for summary judgement on my own. Now if they show more craft
fighting me... well they'll figure it out ... I'm not sure what <br /> anybody might have promised them, the last lawyer we had to run off is a State Senator now we know what he got. <br /> Am I the only one who thinks these people didn't watch any civil rights movies where the bus of FBI agents pulls up? <br />
My OPINION is that all of this is about protecting the political career
of Kathleen Jennings who was apparently presiding over the criminal
division <br /> of Delaware DOJ during Dr. Issa's trial, and Eric
Bodenweiser's trial, and Mike Roger's trial... all of which ended in
hung juries. Anybody give me the odds of that happening in a year in a
state smaller than Fairfax county Va population wise? <br /> My further
opinion is that if a person fears 'being in a hole' they should drop
their shovel immediately. But everybody is smarter than Doug Beatty<br /> and they'll be quick to tell you so. <br />
I am scared, not only of what people do and try to do to me but of
what I become when I engage this level of human behavior. <br /> Never
have I been perfect, and this kind of event doesn't always bring out the
best in me. So without apology I do regret any collateral damage. <br /> But I'm not sorry. I'm a lesser person to admit I'm angry that there aren't more people helping. <br /> The truth is what it is, no matter what your definition of is is. I will try to be better. <br /> Because I can't let it slide, I've done enough evil in my life without turning away here. <br /> Okay, everybody go back to sleep. Nothing to see here. Just a disty old gas bag bloviating. <br /> Does anybody really believe that racism like that exists in our time? <br /><br />Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6181294158854593916.post-67395981848149804662019-04-11T09:08:00.000-07:002019-08-02T14:09:47.691-07:00Delaware demands respectful Negroes. Imagine yourself in your dream job, in a marriage you treasure with three vibrant children and two cars, on track for tenure at a state university. Then without warning you are falsely arrested, fired without cause, maliciously prosecuted, you lose your marriage, your home, you car and your ability to care for your children or even be with them. Then you spend the better part of six years being homeless.<br /> All for doing nothing wrong? Welcome to Delaware, this is BIDEN country . Blacks In Delaware Experience Nightmares.<br /><br /> Dr. Jahi Issa was on a tenure track at Delaware State University fulfilling his dual life goals of becoming a phd and teaching at a Historically Black College or University. His students wanted to attend a board meeting at the University which was open to the public. Dr. Issa was leading his class in front of the Martin Luther King Jr. Student Center in a rally/demonstration before the meeting. They had called Delaware ACLU to be sure their activity was protected and that they would not need a permit.<br /> Two years prior the equestrian team, predominantly white and female had demonstrated after consulting Dr. Issa. He was present at their event as were campus safety personnel. Nobody was restricted from protesting or required to have a permit.<br /> <br /> Dr. Issa however is not a white girl on a horse so they locked him up, fired him, defamed him, arguably committed felonies to prosecute him for misdemeanors, and destroyed his family and career in the process. How he maintained his grip on sanity is any one's guess. Formidable persons have gone feral over less throughout history.<br />
<br />
Since Delaware is an incestuous cesspool of inequity Dr. Issa had his food stamps and unemployment cut off. His marriage did not withstand the strain, he lost his children which meant the world to him. They have not all slept under the same roof for some five years or longer. He missed his son and daughter's high school years being an absentee parent. <br />
<br />
His criminal trial was a sham and ended in a hung jury. The judge pulled so much crap he should change his name from Charles B. Welch to Charlie B. Craptastic.<br /> To Judge Welch's credit, he did tap out and dismiss the charges with prejudice before anybody could get some federal attention on him. Very smooth.<br /> Then the civil ordeal to make Dr. Issa whole began. Since 2014 justice delayed haa been justice denied. For some reason his case drew the Chief Judge of the U.S. Court in the district of Delaware.<br /> For some reason this judge is also making inaccurate statements of fact from the bench and using said spoken horse crap as the basis for rulings against Dr. Issa.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6181294158854593916.post-90425186689056019812019-04-10T11:14:00.001-07:002020-11-21T15:56:19.273-08:00Open Letter to Chief Justice Stark. <br />
Dear Chief Justice Stark,<br />
<br />
My name is Douglas Wade Beatty [ personal info redacted]<br />
On April 8, 2019 this citizen attended a proceeding in the Chief Justice's court room entailing oral arguments for pre-trail motions in the matter of Dr. Jahi Issa vs Delaware State University and others.<br />
I am not an attorney or party to the case, I have followed the case since December 2012 when I attended the pre-trial motion hearing for Dr. Issa's criminal trial. My interest in this case is as a citizen concerned with the quality of justice and as a human being concerned for my fellow human beings.<br />
Your respondent was running for the honor of representing the thirty fourth representative district of Delaware in October of 2012 when a group of citizens in Dover asked a group of candidates to assist in investigating a death and an assault at Silver Lake park in downtown Dover Delaware.<br />
Your respondent was the candidate that could not turn away from the small group of concerned neighbors that included now Dover City Councilman Roy Sudler. I told the people I had no power or authority to do anything but gave my oath to do my best with what I have and here I am.<br />
Dr. Jahi Issa was there and told me that he had been arrested for nothing in addition to the concerns of the neighbors. We were both former residents of the District of Columbia and I was intrigued.<br />
Nobody your respondent ever had to restrain professionally was doing anything wrong either by their account. I had to hear this story.<br />
Dr. Issa was dead serious, police officers lied on the stand to ruin him for no good reason.<br />
I was there. Still in disbelief after my own experience working around police officers in asset protection. I didn't believe Dr. Issa after the preliminary hearing such as it was with only the state presenting evidence. <br />
Dr. Issa's integrity was not in question, but his recollection and knowledge of statute were unproven to me and I believed he had done something in a moment of anger that he didn't remember or that he perceived differently than others did due to his larger than mean size and apparent athleticism for a man of large size. .<br />
The story told in the pretrial motion hearing of 'the hit' or 'the shove' whether it were 'forearm' or 'an elbow shot' was credible as there was just enough variation to suggest it may have been truthfull. <br />
It was disturbingly easy for these men to fool me.<br />
That night on December 5, 2012 I viewed the Youtube video of the arrest you saw in your court room on Monday April 8, 2019 and I nearly fell out of my chair. The man was truly arrested for nothing.<br />
During the proceedings Monday, this citizen heard the Chief Judge say that Chief Downes did not arrest Dr. Issa due to the content of his speech. I did not hear that from the attorneys during their presentation and did not read the motions and responses. So I do not know the origin of the grounds for that statement but the statement is false.<br />
During the criminal trial, Samuel Guy Esquire, counsel for defense, asked Chief Downes why he approached Dr. Issa.<br />
Chief Downes expressed that a student holding a pro-DSU sign or a group praising and promoting DSU would not need a permit. Protesting any policy or condition at DSU according to Downes did require a permit.<br />
Downes admitted that if no permit had been required he would not have approached Dr. Issa. Mr Guy made an oral motion to dismiss the case because the statements of Chief Downes were so offensive to the First Amendment that the matter should be dropped. Judge Charles Welch ruled that the trial could proceed because the sole remaining charge was resisting arrest and it didn't have to be a lawful arrest.<br />
Also, the state used more than the two videos on Youtube at the trial. Deputy Attorney General Ben Snyder showed Dr. Issa an image of the student standing on a table holding the poster of a black power fist and questioned him about it. That image apparently came from a cell phone video and this citizen is curious as to how Mr. Snyder came to be in possession of said image.<br />
There is also a letter from the Attorney General's office to Sam Guy which lists a surveillance video that would be provided to defense, it never was and the letter is dated before a student posted the video "Copy of Attack on Dr. Issa" on Youtube used at trial. I know because I saw the video the night it went up in December 2012 and I downloaded it to an SD card and gave it to Mr. Guy. I had to testify to that on the witness stand during the criminal trial. The state indicated that there was a surveillance video then and there isn't one now. No matter who did what evidence was not preserved.<br />

<br />
<br />
I am a certified protection officer by the International Foundation for Protection Officers in Manitoba Canada and I was a the night and weekend security supervisor at Union Station in Washington D.C., sworn in as a special police officer in the District of Columbia under the administrative management of Metropolitan District of Columbia Police Department Special Officers Management Branch and employed by LaSalle Partners ltd of Chicago Illinois in the late 80's. <br />
Based on my experience with closed circuit television in security it was my opinion in 2013 after visiting the Martin Luther King jr Student Center at Delaware State University which was intended expressly in University literature as a facility for student organizational activity which by definition includes confrontational meetings where Dr. Issa posits that he was assaulted that the camera footage may not have been probative for either party in the case due to image quality but looking from the patio through the glass at the camera lenses something should have been recorded. My opinion only.<br />
The Camera over the escalator appeared to be mounted to cover the doorway and depending on the field of view should have captured some image of Dr. Issa, Officer Buchwald, and or Chief Downes based on their proximity to the door in the video you saw in your courtroom. That's all opinion.<br />
The fact is that the state said they had a surveillance video, and now they say they don't.<br />
Whether or not a state actor did it intentionally has no bearing on the fact that this evidence did exist according to the state, and now it doesn't according to the state.<br />
<br />
Plaintiff counsels' assertion in motion for spoiliation that it is "unclear" whether the A.G. referred to surveillance video or cell phone video is beyond upsetting to this citizen.<br />
The only cell phone videos extant on September 12 2012 on YouTube of Dr. Issa's arrest were uploaded raw and the phones were not held horizontally so the video is horizontal on Youtube.<br />
In your courtroom, and in Judge Welch's court room I saw counsel for plaintiff refer to and show you a rotated video that did not exist when the AG letter was sent. The rotated video counsel presented to the Court on April 8. 2019 was uploaded on December 5. 2012 some months after the A.G. letter stating that they had a surveillance video. <br />
Is the Plaintiff counsel asking the Chief Judge to believe that a Delaware Assistant Attorney General would characterize a sideways YouTube video from a hand held cell phone as a surveillance video? This citizen is also curious as to whether the Chief Judge would accept such a notion after careful consideration?<br />
<br />

In any case your respondent would not infer that Delaware Deputy Attorney General Taylor did not know the difference between a cell phone video and a surveillance video. <br />
I saw her prosecute the case. She presented as impetuous. She is the only lawyer besides Mr. Guy I have met during this process who didn't act like they were intimidated by witnesses to the process. Were your respondent in need of and in a position to retain counsel Ms. Taylor would be sought out by me before anyone I saw before you on April 8, 2019. Again only an opinion based on observation.<br />
There are other factual issues I noted and shared with Dr. Issa but hopefully this letter has outlined enough of the issues for me to communicate my concern over the process I have observed so far. Thank you for taking the time to read this.<br />

This citizen apologizes for the intrusion into the Chief Judge's domain.<br />
Your respondent knows that the Court has taken the same oath of office I have sworn to seven times. My conscience and my colleagues no longer among us would not allow me to sleep were silence kept. <br />
I sincerely regret any unintended offense to the court and having read a bit of the Chief Judge's background and responses to congress at confirmation would like to thank you for your service.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6181294158854593916.post-52058693882973081542019-04-09T21:55:00.000-07:002019-08-02T14:09:47.669-07:00Suing DSU, Down the 'rabbit hole' of our justice systemIn October of 2012 I met a graduate from a school in my second hometown of Washington D.C.. Dr. Jahi Issa was a large possibly ( later confirmed ) football type of scholar athlete and very much a scholar. He raised his children in the public library. He seemed quite insane at first. He had been arrested for nothing, a man had been hanged in a lynching, antoher man was nearly lynched, and the police were covering all of it up.<br />
My training in safety, first aid, and asset protection kicked in and I checked the man from head to toe. No signs of any drug use and he didn't look like he knew how to strike a match.<br />
I leaned in to his voice to see if he had been drinking, Was thinking I would be having something similar when I got home and took my shoes off. He hadn't been drinking. I met his children. He wasn't totally insane or illogical. I was troubled.<br />
So I looked into his story to disprove all of it. Even his arrest, My experience with Howard University, his Alma Matter, was that disorderly could have happened. I'm from D.C. we are a disorderly people in our time by definition. It is a lifestyle. Getting a DO charge at a protest in town is almost a badge of honor. A resume point in some circles.<br />
I almost lost it when I found out the Dr.'s memory of his arrest was photographic, his account was correct and he was traumatized by his ordeal. I went through something similar in my younger years. His pain haunted me.<br />
He won his criminal trial after a long and bitter battle. We are at peace, the people who did that will have to find their own peace. We pray for them.<br />
Now seven years after his arrest Dr. Issa is on the cusp of a civil jury trial and it appears that his lawyers dropped the ball.<br />
After reading briefs and hearing oral arguments the Judge made a statement about the arrest of Dr. Issa that was factually incorrect but not based on anything stated in arguments and I didn't read the motions.<br />
With six lawyers sitting there, three getting tax write offs for pro-bono work and three well paid with our tax dollars one would hope somebody would have read the trial transcrpts? My expectations are too high.<br />
Either way, if that was something the court had read or not three highly educated and credentialed pretty peoples sat there like deer in the headlights for that one and they had the 'gun'. Suspishouz,<br />
Because Delaware was trying to jail an innocent man I did everything I could to help him because it could have been anyone, even me. I would pray for help and I only regret not being able to do more. I can't really rest until my brother is whole.<br />
Really I would rather be learning to program remote control camera drones and studying for an FAA certification to fly UAVs for commercial purposes. My desire is to spend my time helping people trying to better their lives in my community which is ravaged by drugs and crime.<br />
I am an involuntary citizen journalist and Delaware's leading white black nationalist because we live in that kind of world. In truth I'm an equal protection under the law activist. Egalitarian if I need to 'classified'. Ancap one each. I don't like to politic or 'people'.<br />
This matter is more important than that to me.<br />
In any case, Dr. Jahi Issa vs Delaware State University and others is about the First Amendment and that is what the judge missed. Chief Downes testified under oath that students engaged in pro-DSU activity would not need a permit from his department ( himself ) but protests against the university would. I was there when he said it and Defense counsel moved to drop all charges.<br />
Judge Charles Welch decided that the trial could proceed on false arrest alone because it was not lawful to resist an unlawful arrest. Hung Jury,<br />
Retrial, Judge Welch tapped out and dismissed the case with prejudice in 2014<br />
finally ending the ordeal of the trial.<br />
Leaving Dr. Issa divorced, bereft of his children, and homeless. Now just getting back on his feet with a job well below his experience he is grateful to be teaching young people again and igniting them with his passion for learning and exercising their rights and responsibilities.<br />
Throughout his ordeal he has maintained his humanity and integrity when lesser people would have fallen to dishonor or worse. I am proud to call him my brother and if any one ever accuses me of being half the man he is my life will have been well lived.<br />
Thankfully at this point there will be a trial and the truth will come out, on the record. Depositions are over, and hopefully this ugly chapter will be soon. Dr. Issa has expressed that it might not be in the best interest of the University's brand and image to keep pursuing defenses that can be refuted with publicly available records. Like criminal trial transcripts .<br />
He doesn't seek any retribution or revenge and regrets that the can't just walk away without justice for his children who lost their father and their way of life. His oldest daughter is in college and she attended the hearing.<br />
No media was present. Apparently getting bum rushed, locked up, fired, defamed, and made destitute for exercising your First Amendment rights isn't a big deal to Delaware's fourth estate? Fair enough. I can't be silent.<br />
If you're still reading this it is likely only to see if you can prosecute me or sue me. I leave you in the Grace and Comfort of the Lord. Be well.<br />

Despite Dover and Kent County Delaware being predominantly white, and the CDC suicide statistics indicating that black men are up to five times less likely to commit suicide than whites, this writer was unable to find a report of a dead white person at Silver Lake park or any person except young men of color.<br />

In the interval since my last post to this blog in 2017 three more men have been found dead in the waters of Silver Lake in Dover Delaware.<br />

For those just tuning in, there are suspicions of and indications of lynching today, right now in Dover Delaware the capitol of Joe Biden's home state. A blue state, not in the deep south and not a place we think of when the think about backward social morals and prejudice against people of color.<br />
<br />
In October 2010 an student Athlete named Charles Conley was found hanging in a tree in an alley off of Governor's Alley in Dover Delaware. His death was ruled a suicide and the Dover Police cited a vague social media post as proof that the man killed himself. Team mates and acquaintances remain skeptical.<br />
<a href="http://www.whetstone.wesley.edu/2010/10/27/campus-mourns-suicide/">http://www.whetstone.wesley.edu/2010/10/27/campus-mourns-suicide/</a><br />
<br />
In the spring of 2012 Johnny Clark was found in Silver Lake part about a quarter mile as the crow flies from where Charles Conley died. Both men were hanging by their own belts.<br />
Johnny's death was ruled a suicide by the Dover Police department and much of the community suspects Dover PD in being involved with Johnny's death.<br />
<a href="https://www.doverpost.com/article/20121022/NEWS/121029930">https://www.doverpost.com/article/20121022/NEWS/121029930</a><br />
<br />
In September of 2012 there was a man named Henry Fordham shown in the photo above with me in Dover who survived an attempt on his life in Silver Lake park, Henry had ligature marks on his neck and reported that his attackers tried to strangle him with his own belt. A resident heard the assault and called 911. In the article linked above you can read the police chief's statement on the 911 call. Jim Hosfelt is a liar and I hope he sues me for publishing that fact because the truth is an absolute defense. Here is the 911 call in it's entirety the way the Dover P.D. provided it completely unedited:<br />

<br />
The man in the black shirt speaking in Henry Fordham, the other in the white shirt is David Clark, brother of Johnny Clark. David is testifying that the last two people he saw his brother alive with were the same two Henry Fordham named as his attackers. This is testimony before the Dover Human Relations Commission. The result of the commission was to adopt language from the 2011 pro lynching flyer and 'clean up the streets'. of Dover. Mr. Clark was found dead of a gunshot wound in Downton Dover on APril 26, 2015 and no arrests have been made.<br />
<br />

In 2016 a Mr. Harmon of the African American Historical Society wrote the Delaware Department of Justice demanding an investigation into the hanging deaths of Charles Conley and Johnny Clark. Mr. Harmon received a letter from the Kent County Deputy Attorney General Ken Holden stating that the FIVE black men found hanging in Kent County Delaware between 2010 and 2015 were all nothing but 'tragic suicides'.<br />
Looking at the population and demographics of Kent County and CDC suicide statistics puts a high improbability on that 'finding'.<br />
<br />
In 2017 two men from my neighborhood were found in the waters of Silver Lake in their street clothes when the water was too cold for swimming. In both cases police determined "No foul play". One man was a murder suspect on the run.<br />

<br />
Just this past week, the frigid February waters of Silver Lake claimed another man of color, another Wesley College Student has died.<br />
<br />
Now Dover PD again has amazingly found 'no signs of foul play' because track athletes often go swimming in the middle of February with water temps below 40 degrees right?<br />

Some people ask if there really is an active KKK in Delaware?<br /><br />
<br />
Roy Sudler was the chairman of the Dover Human Rights commission that supposedly investigated the Fordham attack and Clark death. Nothing ever came out of the meetings except that the city adopted language from the lynching pamphlets that were around town in 2011 we forgot to mention resolving to 'clean up the streets'.<br />
Now under fire from his constituents it looks like Roy wants to have his construction company sell some light and camera fixtures to the parks and rec of Dover which he chairs. Sounds legit ... <a href="https://www.delawareonline.com/story/news/2019/03/20/councilman-calls-close-silver-lake-after-college-students-death/3224939002/" target="_blank">https://www.delawareonline.com/story/news/2019/03/20/councilman-calls-close-silver-lake-after-college-students-death/3224939002/ </a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6181294158854593916.post-91535423867837912272017-08-29T10:47:00.002-07:002019-08-02T14:09:47.726-07:00Dr. Jahi Issa's false arrest case proceeds in Federal Court.

For
Immediate release:<br />
<br />
The legal team of Dr. Jahi Issa is
pleased to announce that Dr. Issa’s multi-count complaint in United
States Federal Court district of Delaware against Delaware State
University will proceed on the counts of false arrest and defamation
resulting from Dr. Issa’s March 01 2012 FALSE arrest on the
pretense of needing a permit to peaceably assemble with his class for
the purpose of attending a public meeting. <br />
In addition
several other counts were dismissed without prejudice and may be
amended for consideration.<br />
Dr. Issa has been exonerated in
criminal court from the false charges the State of Delaware pursued
against him for exposing a hate crime in Dover, namely the spreading
of racist pamphlets advocating lynching containing racist language
and symbols. <br />
Since his arrest he has not even been allowed
to clean out his office and retrieve his belongings to include at
least 3000 books. <br />
Dr. Issa’s criminal defense team invoked
the Dred Scott ruling in his case, a ruling declaring African
Americans descended from slaves as 3/5 of a person. That ruling has
never been formally overturned. <br />
Dr. Issa had no comment
except to say that he was confident that his cause will prevail and a
trial will expose many unlawful and unethical acts and practices on
the part of the State of Delaware with the result of improving the
quality of justice for all Americans.</div>

Dear General Denn,
Kindly consider this email as an agreement on my part that my earlier FOIA request is closed at the present time.
Also requesting a review of a recent arrest at or around 0400 to 0600 hours yesterday morning by DSP Troop 3 for, according to desk sgt on duty at or around 2330 hours ( recording available from me ) for trying to break into somebody's house while they were sleeping. Erick Hampton of Magnolia aged 23 is the detainee. I am concerned for his safety due to what information is available to me and the FBI has taken a statement from my by telephone and I have waived certain rights to FBI agents to expedite any inquiries.
I do not consent to any contacted by DSP, DOJ, or any Law enforcement officer other than FBI agents except by telephone, I am concerned for the safety of my family as many dogs similar to mine have been shot by DSP including on camera in one case in Smyrna.
This is merely a request on the behalf of Mr. Hampton from his friend per ArtiDecle one section seven of the Delaware Constitution of 1897 as amended.
§ 7. Procedural rights in criminal prosecutions; jury trial; self-incrimination; deprivation of life, liberty or property.
Section 7. In all criminal prosecutions, the accused hath a right to be heard by himself or herself and his or her counsel, to be plainly and fully informed of the nature and cause of the accusation against him or her, to meet the witnesses in their examination face to face, to have compulsory process in due time, on application by himself or herself, his or her friends or counsel, for obtaining witnesses in his or her favor, and a speedy and public trial by an impartial jury; he or she shall not be compelled to give evidence against himself or herself, nor shall he or she be deprived of life, liberty or property, unless by the judgment of his or her peers or by the law of the land.
I have been this young man's mentor for well over three years, he has been on air with me at WGMD, was seen by many persons of note parking cars at the Trump was on air with me at the waterfront festival in Seaford the same day the suspect fled into the river and drowned, is known by many persons and there is concern for his safety in police custody by his friends.
I remain at your service,

It is vital in a democratic society that public business be performed in an open and public manner so that our citizens shall have the opportunity to observe the performance of public officials and to monitor the decisions that are made by such officials in formulating and executing public policy; and further, it is vital that citizens have easy access to public records in order that the society remain free and democratic.

I am sad to bring you this follow up on Vice President Joe Biden's home state. Despite what one generally hears about 'red states' and 'the south' regarding racism, Money Mississippi 1963 ain't got squat on Delaware in 2015.<br />
<br />
Five black men found hanging from 2010 and 2015 in Delaware's central Kent County are all officially 'nothing but tragic suicides'. An attack on one Henry Fordham that was an attempted lynching is officially 'unfounded'. You can read about Henry <a href="http://troubleindover.blogspot.com/2012/11/what-happened-to-henry-fordham.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://troubleindover.blogspot.com/2012/11/poking-holes-in-stories.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">here</a>. <br />
<br />
But enough about tragic suicides and unfounded complaints complete with unfounded corroborating 911 calls and unfounded knife wounds. This post is about shooting.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Since August 28, 2015 in Delaware two officer involved shootings and one arrest made with a tazer are suggestive of a bias. <br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.google.com/search?client=ubuntu&channel=fs&q=Terrence+Fletcher+Dover+&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Terrence Fletcher</a> is shot running from Police in Dover on August 28. Jeff Brown reports in the Milford Beacon that the warrant for Fletcher's arrest contains a statement that detectives determined that nobody was in the yard Fletcher ran through where a handgun is found. Initially there is no search for a weapon, officer in background with hands on his head reportedly distraught and apologizing to no one in particular according to newspaper accounts. <br />
<br />
Fletcher allegedly confesses to having the gun and tossing it after he was shot, reportedly tells locals he threw it before he was shot. Warrant is apparently based on false probable cause, so even if confession is genuine ( highly unlikely, a relative states Fletcher was facing 'three strikes') it could all get thrown out. Does this video taken before yard was searched immediately after shooting look like a preserved crime scene with nobody present?<br />

Then we have the tragedy of September 23 in Wilmington Delaware where <a href="https://news.google.com/news/story?ncl=djBFmbWeAAeCMnMAdIuVCkuouikwM&q=Police+kill+man+in+wheelchair&lr=English&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0CCgQqgIwAGoVChMI3-O38uOQyAIVxFU-Ch3fyQXK" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Police shoot and kill a wheel chair bound man</a>. Jeremy 'Bam' McDole, age 28 and said to have been paralyzed and wheelchair bound for 10 years.
This video is hard to watch and self explanatory. "Give me your hands Show me your
hands"/BANG!! less than a second to comply, subject isn't even looking
at officer with shotgun, officer 'in fear of his life' takes fifteen
seconds to even chamber another round. Three cops make no attempt to use less than lethal force, how are three men with guns drawn in fear of a wounded paralyzed wheelchair bound man with no visible weapon? Link is to a plethora of news

So given the above two examples one would think a person who discharged a semi automatic military pattern rifle, threatened police, and his family, caused a standoff and refused to put his weapon down would be shot, right? Wrong. Mr. Kemp is not a black man, he's white. This incident happened after the shooting of Fletcher and before the killing of McDole. <br />
<br />
"When officers arrived at the location, Mr. Kemp allegedly ran from the road into his house while firing a gun into the air.<br />
Delaware State Police troopers, as well as a Dover Police Department
K9 unit and a state police helicopter, arrived on the scene and closed
Kitts Hummock Road. Police attempted to negotiate with Mr. Kemp, but he
refused to surrender when troopers spotted him among bushes and tree
behind his house around 5:30, Master Cpl. Fournier said.<br />
After further discussion, Mr. Kemp dropped his firearm but did not
lie on the ground, leading to police stunning him with a Taser,
authorities said."<br />

<br /></div>
B.I.D.E.N.. Name or acronym? Yes. Joe Biden is the Vice President of the United States and his home state of Delaware is the one the civil rights movement missed. Black men hanging from trees in this state are always 'suicides'. <br />
<br />
Within very recent memory, two arrests of non-violent, non-criminal, African American intellectuals has driven home this point, as if the five hanging 'suicides' of five African American men in Delaware's central Kent County failed to impress such on the conscious. <br />
<br />
In 2012 Jahi Issa was arrested for being black at a black college where he worked. After more than two years he was finally tried for the lone count of resisting arrest, which ended in a hung jury. The state rolled the dice again and finally the judge said 'no mas' and dismissed with prejudice. <br />
<br />
In 2014 we had an election and Lamar Gunn won recorder of the deeds. He won at least two more counts, they finally counted the 'right way' and ended the process. The election was invalidated by a court ( appointed judges here ) and the governor, Happy Jack Markell, appointed the defeated incumbent. <br />
<br />
Significant to note that Gunn is a black man who insists that there is fraud in the recorder of deeds office and who won a lawsuit along those grounds. <br />
<br />
Enter Chris King, an attorney, journalist, and activist. Mr. King went to the Kent County building to film the recorder of deeds office and was arrested. <br />
<br />
Mr. King would have settled his resulting lawsuit for peanuts. but as usual our self and citizen sodomizing cretins that pass for public servants weren't having that. A trial judge that uses clever synonyms for racial slurs and ignores case law. Complicit police, witness tampering, classic racketeering. <br />
<br />
Now Mr. King's civil suit must do the Delaware Judicial dance o' death so we can get to Federal Court. Again, a black man thinks the Constitution of the United States applies to him in Joe Biden's state. Again, it's going to cost a lot of money, again, the very fabric of our society is offended. Again, Joe Biden is still thinking about that one scene in "Deliverance".<br />

Chris King's motion to recuse the judge pretty much sums it all up. The judge derided him personally and ignored case law. Why is nobody in Delaware surprised? Because we know Joe! <br />
<br />
Don't doubt one thing, Joe knows what back in chains means, that's how Joe keeps his negroes in line! <br />
<br />
The specifics of case law and the specific unprofessional conduct in THIS CASE on THIS SPECIFIC MATTER can be seen along with the entire motion to recuse the judge <a href="http://www.scribd.com/doc/274961028/King-v-McKenna-Malone-Paradee-Free-Press-Motion-to-Recuse-DE-Judge-Robert-B-Young-for-Manifest-Bias" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">here</a>.<br />

Now we have received a report of an attempted lynching of a 17 year old student at SJSU, complete with an apparent cover up.<br /><br /> On the Doug Beatty Show, listen live at 9:00 p.m. EST on 11/23/2013 or listen to the podcast later with this link: <a href="http://www.blogtalkradio.com/thedougbeattyshow/2013/11/24/trouble-at-san-jose-state-university">http://www.blogtalkradio.com/thedougbeattyshow/2013/11/24/trouble-at-san-jose-state-university</a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6181294158854593916.post-88009554185104341232013-05-15T08:32:00.000-07:002019-08-02T14:09:47.716-07:00White Skinned Privilege (again)Tuesday May 14, 2013 at 820 N. French Street in Wilmington, fourth floor library of the Professional Employee Relations Board at a hearing for Dr. Jahi Issa v AAUP ( professor's union at Delaware State University).<br />
<br />
Dr. Issa has charged the AAUP with not properly representing him when he was arrested, suspended, and fired from his job as an associate professor at Delaware State University.<br />
<br />
The AAUP is contesting these charges and the matter is before the Professional Employee Relations Board. Hearing officer Charlie Long presided over yesterday's proceedings.<br />
<br />
Mssrs. Goldlust and Keating Esquires represented the AAUP, also at the table was Dr. Steve Newton former president of the AAUP at Delaware State University.<br />
<br />
Dr. Issa objected to the status and standing of AAUP attorney Justin Keating. Dr. Issa's correspondence he introduced indicates that Mr. Keating represented him on behalf of the AAUP and was with him when Dr. Issa got a letter of termination on August 17, 2012.<br />
<br />
By his own admission Mr. Keating was not admitted to the bar in Delaware and had no standing to practice law. Telling a union member that you are their attorney appears to be practicing law, and regulations are consistent with this position.<br />
<br />
Mr. Keating also asked the Professional Employee Relations Board to grant the AAUP an extension for a response to Dr. Issa's complaint admitting that he was not licensed to practice in Delaware and at the same time stating that he was doing so by representing the AAUP.<br />
<br />
Accordingly complaints have been made to the appropriate authorities. Because of the pending complaints, it would appear to be a rules violation for the law firm that AAUP attorney Mr. Goldlust belongs to to grant Mr. Keating pro hoc status.<br />
<br />
So most of this hearing was Dr. Issa objecting to the status and standing of Mr. Keating to represent AAUP, and Dr. Issa demanding a default judgement according to published PERB rules because the respondent did not file a timely response.<br />
<br />
Ironically the AAUP is claiming that Dr. Issa did not file a timely response. Dr. Issa isn't concerned with this allegation and is confident that he can supply evidence and case law to refute this point.<br />
<br />
Perhaps the most interesting outcome yesterday was Dr. Issa filing a motion to restrict white-skinned privilege. It was provocative but accurate. Initially I had advised against this motion but given the obvious bias of PERB to the AAUP it was appropriate.<br />
<br />
Ironically Dr. Issa was assisted by Mr. EShed Alston a licensed legal professional and paralegal. Mr. Alston has been cited and fined for practicing law in Delaware without a license. Perhaps if Mr. Alston was a white skinned person like Justice Keating and not an African American he could have gotten away with it?<br />
<br />
At the end of the day hearing officer Charlie Long for PERB decided that the issue of whether or not rules had been broken by AAUP and PERB in allowing Mr. Keating to represent AAUP without being a licensed attorney and granting him an extension instead of giving Dr. Issa his default judgement doesn't materially affect Dr. Issa's case.<br />
<br />
Say again? If rules and procedures had been followed Dr. Issa would have prevailed already, so how does allowing Mr. Keating status and standing contrary to established rules not affect Dr. Issa's case? It should be over right now and resolved in Dr. Issa's favor.<br />
<br />
The Delaware State University AAUP former president Dr. Newton is also a blogger and a board member of the Delaware Libertarian party. More on that later as information develops. For now it will suffice that <a href="http://delawarelibertarian.blogspot.com/2013/05/dead-blog-walking.html" target="_blank">Steve Newton attacked another blog</a> exactly seven days after said <a href="http://www.delawarepolitics.net/our-bill-of-rights-and-the-curious-case-of-dr-jahi-issa/" target="_blank">blog allowed me a guest post in favor of Dr. Issa.</a><br />
<br />
Interestingly enough on the Delaware Politics post I wrote supporting Dr. Issa there was an anonymous person commenting that seemed hell bent on casting Dr. Issa in a false light, suggesting that Dr. Issa should have been hauled off by the police for his views, and apparently having all kinds of inside information.<br />
<br />
Dr. Newton is also white.<br />
<br />

<br /></div>
I'm sitting in the courtroom, listening to a case review of Delaware v Issa. This is to determine if there are any more issues to be dealt with before the state proceeds with false charges against Dr. Jahi Issa, arrested while leading his students outside the Martin Luther King Student Center intending to attend a public board meeting.<br /><br /> Dr. Issa was accosted, manhandled, and ultimately arrested ( after being hospitalized ) by DSU campus police. The Chief himself was the chief attacker. For those just tuning in, the allegation by Cheif Downes is that he only touched Dr. Issa on the shoulder in a calming manner whereupon Dr. Issa spat profanity and struck him in the chest with an elbow blow. Hence 'offensive touching' charges.<br /><br /> Dr. Issa then 'pulled away' and fell to the ground, hence resisting arrest. In fact EMS was summoned, found Dr. Issa's blood pressure dangerously elevated and had him admitted to the hospital. I guess trying to stay alive is resisting arrest.<br /><br /> In any case here's the video which clearly shows that Chief Downes did touch Dr. Issa in an offensive manner, he did touch him other than in a 'calming manner' and Dr. Issa didn't hit or shove anyone.<br /><br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/Y71cstMDg-U?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Perhaps the most chilling part of the case review was when Judge Welch said that the equestrian protest of 2010 couldn't really supply evidence of disparate treatment because the equestrian team was ordered to disperse and did so.<br /><br /> A couple of points. Let's take the Judge at his word ( bad idea, but play along ). Dr. Issa never had the opportunity to comply with such an order, none was ever given. The police simply grabbed him and hauled him off. He wasn't doing anything to warrant that and the police admitted they had no probable cause to detain him when they put their hands on him.<br /><br /> Number two, the state is insisting that there are no records of the equestrian protest so how does the Judge know this? If I followed correctly DSU's general counsel told him. Said counsel wasn't at the equestrian protest either so second hand heresay at best, from the bench. In fact Dr. Issa and other witnesses who were present at the 2010 equestrian protest will testify that no such dispersal ever occured.<br /><br /> It was a good day to be white, unfortunately for him Dr. Issa isn't.<br /><br /> Then to put a cherry on top, Delaware Family Services basically kidnapped Dr. Issa's nine year old son and tried to bring more false charges against him. Fortunately Dr. Issa's wife was able to intervene and get her son to a doctor who found that the boy was un-injured. Otherwise the state was trying to go after Dr. Issa for child abuse.<br /><br /> A school nurse filed a false report saying that the young boy had blood in his ear canal, bruising on his throat consistent with being strangled, and bruised swollen ribs from being beaten. Somehow interrogating the boy in a room full of strangers the state thought they had enough to go after Mrs. Issa and get her to sign documents. Bad guess.<br /><br /> The boy's family doctor examined him that very day without finding any signs of injury. So now that's another matter that must be dealt with. A school nurse that falsifies reports is not a joke, Dr. Issa will file the paperwork because he is a parent and doesn't want this to happen to other parents.<br /><br /> Which brings me to the point of this post. Dr. Issa is fighting for his rights, the rights of others, and at this point his very survival. While undocumented immigrants can count on our social safety net, Dr. Issa's family is being denied food stamps and medical care he needs to keep them whole while he fights the charges against him.<br /><br /> Right now, Dr. Issa needs one thousand dollars to purchase court transcripts of his criminal trial. The state won't let him file in forma pauperis because he has an attorney ( who hasn't been paid in a while ) even though he has been made indigent by the entity charging him, namely the state.<br /><br /> Without the transcripts whatever the judge or state prosecutor 'recalls' from earlier proceedings will stand, so these transcripts are vital for his defense.<br /><br />Please join your humble respondent in donating to Dr. Issa's legal defense fund. This is serious, I know times are tight and there are plenty of worthy causes. Helping a man who's fighting for the first amendment, education, against lynchings, and who never refuses to help others is one of them. </div>

When I was a child living in Alexandria Virginia witnessing the riots after the murder of Dr. King I had no idea what was really transpiring. After being a teenager in the 1970's, serving in the Navy, and growing up with the modern civil rights movement there was no way I would have believed that we would still be fighting this fight in 2013.</div>
<br />
There is no way you could have convinced me that <a href="http://troubleindover.blogspot.com/2012/11/modus-operandi-and-man-we-didnt-know.html" target="_blank">young black men would be suspiciously hanging </a>by their own belts from trees in the Capitol City of a sitting United States Vice Presidents home state, and no public outcry. I would have never believed that a man could survive an attempted lynching to be mocked and ignored by the local police due to his own criminal past and skin color.<br />
<br />
It would have been impossible to convince me that a walking abuse of public trust like Chief Downes and his little sycophant Patrolman Buchwald would be bold enough to try and cook up a false story against a professor in front of students with cell phones recording the event.<br />
<br />
There are no words for these two abusers of the public trust, <a href="http://troubleindover.blogspot.com/2012/12/when-thugs-lie_9.html" target="_blank">they testified under oath</a> that Dr. Issa struck the Chief and all that Chief Downes did was touch Dr. Issa in a 'calming manner'. Both of those assertions are disproved by a video record of the event. To wit:<br />

I would have never believed that a sitting judge would go along with this conspiracy to pervert justice. Yet here we are, in Beau Biden's state and Joe Biden's backyard discussing Dred Scott in official court documents. Attorney Sam Guy perhaps summed the case up with this paragraph from the document linked above:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b>But for Dr. Issa's belief that as a black man that he could exercise 1st Amendment</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b>rights while standing near the Martin Luther King Student Center and Medgar Evers Hall</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b>on the campus of DSU, an HBCU, where he was employed, DSU employees including</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b>Mr. Downes would have never have illegally and offensively put his hands on Dr. Issa.</b></div>
<br />
Words fail me at this point. Hopefully I'll get my act together in time to discuss this on Sunday evening at 10:00 p.m. EST on our blogtalkradio show.

On December 4, 2012 there was a pretrial motion hearing in the case of <a href="http://troubleindover.blogspot.com/2012/12/will-there-be-third-story-from-dsu.html" target="_blank">Delaware V Dr. Jahi Issa</a>. Dr. Issa was not allowed to present any witnesses, the hearing was recessed after the state's witnesses were presented.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://courts.delaware.gov/aoc/Docket/images/DocketS09-Reigle.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="224" src="http://courts.delaware.gov/aoc/Docket/images/DocketS09-Reigle.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
Exalted Cyclops, er, um I mean Kent County Court of Common Pleas Judge Welch promised to give a continuance date with a week. Never happened. Seven weeks went by with no word. <br />
<br />
Two key witnesses coincidentally left their jobs at Delaware State University while Dr. Issa and his attorney waited patiently for a continuation date so they could present their evidence in the motion hearing. <br />
<br />
Finally on February 1, 2013 the Judge made a ruling on the pretrial motion without any presentation from the defense. Apparently in Delaware the Judges don't want to hear anything from "Negroes". This is shocking even for Delaware: <a href="https://docs.google.com/file/d/1ylfxg-Q4cDHWXsEACRRPIn9-j6Bo9gPHVft4EaqRkCMQXzlzRKj55QeOjFr-/edit?usp=sharing">https://docs.google.com/file/d/1ylfxg-Q4cDHWXsEACRRPIn9-j6Bo9gPHVft4EaqRkCMQXzlzRKj55QeOjFr-/edit?usp=sharing</a><br />
<br />
In his ruling the Judge dismissed the charge of disorderly conduct, but his finding of 'facts' supported charges of offensive touching and resisting arrest going to trial. <br />
<br />
The Judge's opinion stated as fact that Dr. Issa pushed the police chief, and refused to be handcuffed. This is contrary to testimony given. Officer Buchwald did not testify that he tried to handcuff Dr. Issa to the best of my recollection. <br />
<br />
In any case, the video shown here refutes the testimony of the Delaware State University Public Safety Chief Downes and Patrolman Buchwald. They both testified under oath that Chief Downes only touched Dr. Issa on the shoulder in a calming manner and that Dr. Issa responded by striking the Chief with an elbow or forearm blow depending on whose testimony we are referring to. I call Bullshit. Check out the video of the event and you tell me.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/Y71cstMDg-U?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div>
<br />
<br />
The Judge finds that Dr. Issa resisted arrest by pulling away from the officers and falling to the ground. Not considered was the fact that EMS was called to the scene, found Dr. Issa's blood pressure ( over 200 ) to be dangerous and Dr. Issa was in fact admitted to the hospital from the emergency room.<br />
<br />
While having one of the charges dropped is good news, Judge Welch ruling on the motion without allowing the defense to present any evidence is troubling.<br />
<br />
I'm puzzled as to why the state of Delaware is even pretending to have a judicial process here. Wondering when people are going to wake up to the white supremacy that is pervasive in the first state. Totally at a loss as to how this 'Judge' can look in a mirror. <br />
<br />
It would appear that old school white supremacy in Delaware is alive and well. Please consider contributing to Dr. Issa's legal defense fund <a href="http://hbcuinstitute.org/" target="_blank">http://hbcuinstitute.org </a><br />

On the eighty fourth anniversary of the birth of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. I was privileged to join other concerned Americans in a march on Dover Delaware to protest civil rights violations in Delaware and to call for a revival for the message and mission of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/537220_4201180948372_1764776010_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/537220_4201180948372_1764776010_n.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>
We met at a parking lot across the highway from Delaware University to gather and brief on the day's activities. The Best Buy manager promptly called the Dover City P.D. on us. They responded to that complaint, unlike the <a href="http://troubleindover.blogspot.com/2012/11/poking-holes-in-stories.html">complaint of Henry J. Fordham on 21 September 2012 </a>. <br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Then we marched across the highway to protest outside the gates of Delaware State University. Alton Maddox and several others including myself gave brief speeches. This was a dedicated group of hardcore civil rights activists that didn't mind standing in the cold rain to make a point. <br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash4/408377_4201970888120_1692812782_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash4/408377_4201970888120_1692812782_n.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>
After breaking for lunch we marched from 105 S. New Street in Dover to legislative hall and gathered on the west steps. <br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash4/427976_4206458880317_370834131_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash4/427976_4206458880317_370834131_n.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>
Again we had an array of speakers take the bullhorn and deliver their message. The governor had scheduled his inauguration on legislative mall but moved it to a middle school ostensibly due to weather. It was raining civil rights activists. <br /><br /> Pam Africa was giving a passionate oratory when the governor returned to legislative hall and we understand he used the back door rather than hear us and introduce himself. Perhaps poetic? <br /><br /> Dr. Issa and myself want to thank all of the activists and concerned Americans who put their lives on hold to come to Delaware and celebrate the birth of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., protest civil rights violations everywhere especially in the First State, and speak out against injustice everywhere. <br /><br /> Media coverage was scant, and we would like to thank those principled local reporters who covered the event. <br /><br /> We don't think that Governor Markell and Attorney General Biden are taking us seriously. This time we came with a small group of activist leaders and did not seek national media attention. It was an opportunity for our public servants to reach out and start a dialogue. Silence is deafening. <br /><br /> We will be happy to do this again with mass participation and national attention. Our salaries ( zero ) remain unaffected. Stay tuned because it will be going down. <br /><br /> <br /><br /><br /><br /> <br /><br />Unknownnoreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6181294158854593916.post-37644066080411526932013-01-09T06:22:00.001-08:002019-08-02T14:09:47.611-07:00January 15, 2013 March on Dover<br />

Variations of the term, such as "lynch law", "judge lynch", and "lynching", were standard entries in American and British English dictionaries by the 1850s. In 1811 a man named Captain </span><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Lynch_(Lynch_law)" style="background-color: white; background-image: none; color: #0b0080; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.200000762939453px; text-decoration: initial;" title="William Lynch (Lynch law)">William Lynch</a><span style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.200000762939453px;"> claimed that the phrase, by then famous, actually came from a 1780 compact signed by him and his neighbors in</span><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pittsylvania_County,_Virginia" style="background-color: white; background-image: none; color: #0b0080; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.200000762939453px; text-decoration: initial;" title="Pittsylvania County, Virginia">Pittsylvania County, Virginia</a><span style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19.200000762939453px;">, to uphold their own brand of law independent of legal authority. The obscurity of the Pittsylvania County compact compared to the well-known actions of Charles Lynch casts doubt on it being the source of the phrase.

To many lynching means hanging a black person to terrorize and suppress other black people. While this kind of activity has certainly become a shameful part of America's history, whites have also been lynched.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Lynching humiliates and violates the victim publicly and serves as a warning to others. Lynching is carried out by a mob and it's actions are extra-legal. That is to say illegal, criminal. People committing a crime to combat wrong. Like having coitus to promote virginity.</div>
<br />
Lynching in today's parlance can have results other than death. Sometimes people are destroyed in the media, sometimes wrongly. Richard Jewell comes to mind. A security guard wrongly accused of planting a bomb so he could be a 'hero' and discover it.<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Jewell">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Jewell</a><br />
<br />
Mr. Jewell was vindicated eventually. I have heard one litigator express an opinion that what happened to Eric Bodenweiser was a lynching.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<br />
Eric is a colleague. He ran a campaign to be the republican nominee for the 19th State Senate District in Delaware. I was at Bodie headquarters when we learned on primary night that Eric had won a bitter and hard fought campaign. Some of the attacks on Eric seemed beyond the pale. He ran a clean campaign and the voters responded. I was proud to have worked on his campaign. With no money to give it was my contribution to breaking up the club in Dover.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
While Eric and I don't agree on everything, I believed that he was truly an outsider that would not play 'go along to get along' with the corruption in our government. Sometimes described hereabouts as 'The Delaware way'. When our politicians say bi-partisan in Delaware it really really means we are getting screwed. Double.</div>
<br />
Yes, we thought the attacks on Eric had been vicious. We hadn't seen anything yet. An accuser who just happens to a convicted felon on probation right now for a violent crime involving attempted strangulation and witness tampering decides to make 25 year old allegations. The A.G. ( comatose in many civil rights cases, as we will discuss on this blog ) jumps into action and indicts Eric for 113 felony sex crimes involving a young boy.<br />
<br />
The media jumps all over this and chants 113 113 while most forget to report on the recent criminal history of the accuser. Not mentioned is that even though Eric's family owned a chain of convenience stores and he had access to untold numbers of children no other allegations have come out.<br />
<br />
Eric is on house arrest, and watched his election stolen by a walk on republican who will follow the course of the man Eric beat in the primary. Vice President Joe Biden even congratulated Eric after the election because the departments of elections was not able to change the web displayed candidate name from Eric to the replacement. Joe must not have been reading any Delaware newspapers. Probably busy.<br />
<br />
Scant reporting is done when Eric's first amendment rights are violated by a capricious order from a Judge denying Eric's request to worship at his church. Even after the Pastor files a safety plan including an escort for Eric to and from his car and the probation officer recommends the visit. Possibly cruel and unusual punishment as well. All this and the man is presumably innocent until proven guilty?<br />
<br />
Dr. Jahi Issa could be called the victim of an academic lynching at this point in time. An opponent of management practices at Delaware State University he is arrested on March 1, 2012 when his students rally at the Martin Luther King Student Center to walk to the public board of trustees meeting. Chief Downes of DSU public safety gives a different story in court on December 4, 2012 than the narrative given by DSU spokesman Carlos Holmes to the Dover Post on March 2, 2012.<br />
<br />
Chief Downes testifies under oath that he only touched Dr. Issa in a calming manner by placing his right hand on Dr. Issa's shoulder, whereupon Dr. Issa hit him with a forearm blow to the chest. Well, check out this video and you tell me:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Yet the state still wants to prosecute Dr. Issa to endorse the illegal actions of DSU public safety personnel. So the man is fired from his job, struggling, discredited, academically lynched.</div>
<br />
In 1903 there was a recorded lynching in Delaware. The victim was burned. He got away and they had to throw him back on the fire and burn him again. <a href="http://thepeopleschampion.me/strange-fruit-in-dover-delaware-lynching-in-1903-made-national-headlines-while-case-remains-states-only-official-incident-on-record/">http://thepeopleschampion.me/strange-fruit-in-dover-delaware-lynching-in-1903-made-national-headlines-while-case-remains-states-only-official-incident-on-record/</a><br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Let's talk about what's not lynching. At least officially. In Dover Delaware when you have two black men hanging from trees by their own belts in public, a racist leaflet campaign, and an assault victim with a cut <a href="http://troubleindover.blogspot.com/2012/11/what-happened-to-henry-fordham.html">under his left ear, a stab wound in his mouth, and a ligature mark on his neck?</a> Well that ain't no lynching!</div>
<br />
That's a couple of rare but unfortunate suicides, and a liar who is a criminal making up a story. Guess Mr. Fordham stabbed himself? I suppose that Johnny 'snipes' Clark ( who was called snipes on the street because of his affinity for firearms ) and<a href="http://troubleindover.blogspot.com/2012/11/modus-operandi-and-man-we-didnt-know.html"> Charles Conley</a> ( 19 year old freshman and star athlete ) just happened to both commit suicide with their own belts in public within two years and a quarter mile of each other?<br />
<br />
That racist flyer? Printer malfunction?<br />

Spoke to officials from Delaware's Human Relations Council today. More on that in another post. Stay tuned, because this show never ends. There will always be evil in the world. It only gets better when each of us does what we can to chip away at it.</div>

There are those among us who will not rest until this is resolved. Then we'll find another battle I expect.<br />

An introduction to reports of lynchings, attempted lynching, and an official cover up in Dover Delaware.<br />
With Dr. Jahi Issa ( Phd, U.S. History) and Doug Beatty ( local political activist)<br />

In the early spring of 2012 I had enough and decided to become politically active. From the unsolved black on black homicide of my neighbor in 2006 that nobody was trying to solve to shenanigans from the County I was at the end of my rope.<br />
<br />
First I wrote polite emails, then impolite emails, then batpoop crazy disturbing emails. Eventually I thought about running for office. Explored a primary against Governor Markell, got a little press and radio coverage before I decided to leave the Democratic Party and run for the 34th district representative as an Independent. I got my clock cleaned.<br />
<br />
On October 6 2012 my campaign basically stopped. That day I met Dr. Jahi Issa. The doctor had some allegations that were very disturbing. A man had been lynched, another man had been abducted by the killers and had escaped with injuries but the police weren't doing anything about it, he himself had been 'set up' and arrested for no reason at Delaware State University during a student protest.<br />
<br />
I now know for a fact that Dover Police are refusing to investigate Henry Fordham's complaint of assault on September 21, 2012 by what Fordham says are two white males who resided in his neighborhood until the day of the assault. According to police Fordham lied to them about how he came to be in the company of his attackers and he is 'known to them'.<br />
<br />
Neither of which gives anyone the right to assault Fordham or relieves the police of their duty to collect evidence and arrest criminals on complaint of crime. <a href="http://troubleindover.blogspot.com/2012/11/poking-holes-in-stories.html">http://troubleindover.blogspot.com/2012/11/poking-holes-in-stories.html</a><br />

<br />
<br />
Fordham had a nasty cut under his left ear, had been stabbed in the mouth on the left side of his face, and had a ligature mark on his neck. He identified his assailants by first name, description, and address. Neighborhood residents confirm that the two individuals named by Fordham were at their residence the morning that Fordham was attacked until 'word got out and people started talking' then they left. Both of their first names are known and the last name of one man is known.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I can also confidently state that Delaware State University has changed it's narrative of the reason for arresting Dr. Issa ( he has been fired from his job of Associate Professor at DSU ) and both narratives have fatal flaws. Namely that they are both bullshit. <a href="http://troubleindover.blogspot.com/2012/12/will-there-be-third-story-from-dsu.html">http://troubleindover.blogspot.com/2012/12/will-there-be-third-story-from-dsu.html</a>.<br />
<br />
The deaths by hanging from trees with their own belts of Johnny Clark at Silver Lake Park in May 2012 and Charles Conley in the alley off of 200 N. Governor's Ave in October 2010 are both officially suicides. There is some question of this finding from friends, relatives and some in the local community. I don't have any definitive answers on the suicides, never having seen the official records. They remain question marks in my mind.<br />
<br />
I saw a video of the arrest on December 5, 2012 that perfectly matched the version of the event that Dr. Issa had consistently been describing since I had met him on October 6, 2012.<br />
<br />
What I do know is that Dr. Issa is being falsely prosecuted. I can only speculate as to motive, I know that is what's happening. I do know that Dover Police Department is refusing to take the complaint of Henry Fordham seriously and that somebody definitely assaulted him at Silver Lake Park in the early morning of 2012. I know that nobody even bothered to collect evidence when my neighbor was killed. A slug was actually left in my wall and I was told to call in if I found it. So much for chain of custody.<br />
<br />
Are these events occurring due to incompetence/arrogance/corruption or is there institutional racism in Delaware? I suspect a combination, other activists I'm working with believe complicity and a white supremist elite are at work. Time will tell.<br />
<br />
What we know is that the First State is the one the civil rights movement missed. Please help us get out the word.<br />

<br />
In February of 2012 a racist flyer reaches the notice of an Associate Professor employed by Delaware State University. DSU is a historically black college or university or HBCU. The flyer depicts a lynching and contains offensive and violent racially charged rhetoric directed against African Americans and other people with dark skin.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://waronthehorizon.com/site/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/Lynching-flyer-in-Dover-Delaware-in-Dec-2011.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://waronthehorizon.com/site/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/Lynching-flyer-in-Dover-Delaware-in-Dec-2011.jpg" width="216" /></a></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Dr. Issa has a phd in American History specializing in the African American experience during the post bellum period of the South. Lynchings are something he knows about and he took the threat communicated by the flyer very seriously. He began teaching his students about lynchings.</div>
<br />
Dr. Issa is also a vocal supporter of HBCUs and strongly favors maintaining HBCUs to provide the educational opportunity to young African Americans that might not otherwise be educated. This is a controversial subject nationwide and Dr. Issa's viewpoint isn't unique or without opposition.<br />
<br />
A state audit of Delaware State University raised other issues with management. A group of Dr. Issa's students decided to meet at the Dr. Martin Luther King student center and walk to the administration building to express their concerns. Dr. Issa joins them and provides a guest speaker for students who don't wish to participate in the field activity.<br />
<br />
The ACLU office in Wilmington Delaware is consulted for legal advice and Dr. Issa and his students are advised to exercise their rights. On March 1 Dr. Issa is arrested on four criminal charges including inciting a riot. The DSU spokesperson Carlos Holmes issues a statement that may appear to be printed as fact by the Dover Post. <a href="http://www.doverpost.com/article/20120302/NEWS/303029999#art-tit">http://www.doverpost.com/article/20120302/NEWS/303029999#art-tit</a><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The ACLU weighs in publicly and initially supports Dr. Issa even finding a pro-bono attorney for the professor's criminal defense. </div>

“At the time Dr. Issa was arrested students were gathering for the purpose of walking to the DSU Board of Trustees meeting to express their views on issues of importance to them,” she said. “DSU was not entitled to require a permit for that activity, any more than a town would have been under the circumstances.”</div>

<div style="font-size: medium;">
On May 12, 2012 Johnny Clark died at Silver Lake Park in Dover. A black man, the official Dover Police Department report indicated that he had committed suicide by hanging himself from a tree. For many reasons his family didn't buy the official story.</div>
<div style="font-size: medium;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: medium;">
There was no press release from the police, no local media coverage. Until very recently the only mention of Clark's death online was at <a href="http://www.bhbanco.org/2012/09/vp-biden-and-his-son.html">http://www.bhbanco.org/2012/09/vp-biden-and-his-son.html</a>.</div>
<div style="font-size: medium;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: medium;">
That website post was challenged by WGMD News in the Morning host Bill Colley who subsequently interviewed Mr. Alston of Dover on air. Then the Antonio Prado of the Dover Post printed this report of a Dover Town Council meeting: <a href="http://www.doverpost.com/article/20121022/NEWS/121029930">http://www.doverpost.com/article/20121022/NEWS/121029930</a></div>
<div style="font-size: medium;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: medium;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: medium;">
Then on September 21. 2012 Henry J. Fordham of Dover is assaulted at Silver Lake park by two men that Fordham claims confessed to killing Johnny Clark and Fordham further maintains that these two men were attempting to cut off his ear and penis and kill him. Police do not take the report seriously, limit their investigation to 'poking holes' in Fordham's story of how he came to be in the company of said two individuals.<br />

Despite having been fired from DSU and facing jail time for false charges Dr. Issa continues to investigate the death of Johnny Clark and begins investigating the attack on Fordham. At a candidates forum held at the Minority Outreach Center in Dover Delaware on October 6, 2012 I met Dr. Issa and expressed an interest into investigating what seemed to be specious claims.<br />
<br />
It was during this time that I learned of Dr. Issa's arrest and dismissal from DSU.<br />
<br />
Attorneys from the Wilmington Delaware ACLU office receive subpoenas to appear at Dr. Issa's hearing, they manage to get the Judge to quash the subpoenas. This is outrageous. Bad enough they abandoned Dr. Issa after advising him to protest, now they can't even appear and testify? The case should be thrown out for that alone. Their testimony is key because it proves that Dr. Issa had no intent to be disorderly, he was intending to lawfully exercise his first amendment rights and had sought legal advice.<br />
<br />
This action and other issues prompt a letter to the Judge from Dr. Issa's attorney: <a href="http://doublebad.net/IssaJahiPostTeleconferenceIssues11262012.pdf">http://doublebad.net/IssaJahiPostTeleconferenceIssues11262012.pdf</a></div>
<div style="font-size: medium;">
<br />
<br />
On December 4, 2012 evidence was presented in a hearing on a pre-trial motion of defense to suppress the arrest and dismiss the charges. By this time the inciting charge has been dropped and DSU officials have now deviated from the narrative given by Carlos Holmes to the Dover Post.</div>

Dr. Issa is the Dred Scott of our time. The system in Delaware is trying to discredit and even imprison him for something he never did. Video evidence is hard to argue, the Chief of Public Safety at DSU and a patrolman told the same false story. The odds of that being a good faith mistake are minute at best. </div>
<div style="font-size: medium;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: medium;">
Dred Scott was denied justice not because of the merits of his case, but because the court determined that black people didn't have rights of other Americans. Are we really still doing this in 2012? Here is a motion to dismiss from Dr. Issa's defense attorney: <a href="http://doublebad.net/MEMORANDUM12102012.pdf" style="font-size: 13px;">http://doublebad.net/MEMORANDUM12102012.pdf</a></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="font-size: medium;">
Please consider a contribution to Dr. Issa's legal defense fund. The state hasn't even gotten through the pre-trial motions and Dr. Issa hasn't worked since March 1, 2012. They are trying to bleed him dry by dragging this out and he needs to keep a vigorous defense. This is the first amendment right of us all. If this man can be silenced any of us can.
