Subject: criminal fraud prosecution -- Lawrence Tribe 

Dean Minow: 

I may face federal prosecution for criminal fraud and I request your assistance in locating legal counsel who can defend me. 

On Friday January 15, 2010 I was interviewed by Deputy U.S. Marshal xxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx, U.S. District Court, 3rd & Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20001, telephone: 202 xxx xxxx. The interview, which was tape-recorded, concerned a law enforcement matter. 

At the commencement of the interview I stated that my U.S. Social Security disability claim was a "total fraud." My claim, no. xxx xx xxxx, was approved effective October 29, 1991. If I remain disabled till retirement age, I will have collected about $500,000 in disability benefits, medicare, and medicaid. In effect, I admitted to two federal officers that I am engaged in the commission of a felony against the government of the United States. 

I requested that the Marshal refer the matter for investigation to the FBI. The Marshal declined. The other Deputy U.S. Marshal added: "The type of fraud you are alleging is probably of a nature that is too difficult for the FBI to investigate." I have never heard of a situation in which the FBI declines to investigate a felony on the grounds it is "too difficult to investigate." The statements of both Deputy Marshals are preserved on the tape of the interview. 

It may be that the refusal of the U.S. Marshal to take any action may constitute the misprision of a felony, which itself may constitute a felony by the U.S. Marshal. 

There is a possibility that Attorney General Holder or Justice Department Criminal Division Chief Lanny Beuer have committed an obstruction of justice in thwarting an investigation of my case which involves the law partners of Vernon Jordan, a friend of Mr. Holder's. 

I believe there are legal issues raised by the USMS response to my statement. It may be that the U.S. Department of Justice, by and through the U.S. Marshal Service and its employees, has waived prosecution of any felonies I may have committed against the United States. If the actions of the USMS constitute a waiver, I request that the Justice Department issue to me a formal notice that it is waiving prosecution for any crimes I may have committed in defrauding the federal government. I was unaware that the USMS has the jurisdiction to waive the prosecution of a felony committed against the United States. 

I have brought my concerns to the attention of the FBI Washington Field Office via email. The FBI has shown no interest in investigating this matter. 

I have been diagnosed with severe (psychotic) mental illness. My allegations and admissions of crimes may be symptomatic of severe mental illness. My treating psychiatrist is Jitendra Annapareddy, M.D. I see him once per week. His telephone number is 202 407 2153. He is a third year psychiatry resident affiliated with St. Elizabeths Hospital. Dr. Annapareddy's supervisor is Earle Baughman, M.D., St. Elizabeths Hospital.
