You Could Never Prove I Am Sane

You could never prove I am sane.  I have too many crazy ideas about too many things.

Significant Moments: I'm One of Those Actors Who Likes Working for a Female Director

The end of man is knowledge, but there is one thing he can't know. He can't know whether knowledge will save him or kill him. He will be killed all right, but he can't know whether he is killed because of the knowledge which he has got or the knowledge which he hasn't got and which if he had it, would save him. There's the cold in your stomach, but you open the envelope, you have to open the envelope for the end of man is to know.

Jeffrey Masson was a person who was motivated by a powerful curiosity (sublimated sexuality), a need for fame (grandiosity), and a need to validate the experience of victims whose claims had been denied by the authorities (empathy, identification, strong moral sense).  With some people there is no single reason why they do what they do.  There may be a confluence of factors that motivates them to act.

Significant Moments: On Never Leaving Your Home

At the end of World War II hundreds of the Nazis who participated in the systematic murder of 6,000,000 Jews and 5,000,000 Gypsies, Poles, and other "inferior" peoples slipped through the Allied net, many of them by means of O.D.E.S.S.A., the SS contingency escape apparatus. For cautionary more than vengeful reasons — to remind humanity that human nature is actually capable of acts that strain credulity — one of the survivors of the Nazi death camps, Simon Wiesenthal, has dedicated his life to documenting the genocide that occurred in Europe under Hitler and hunting down the perpetrators of that crime who are still at large. . . .
In 1954 the [Jewish Historical Documentation Center in Linz, Austria] was closed and its files given to the Yad Vashem archives in Israel — except one: the dossier on Adolf Eichmann, the inconspicuous technocrat who, as chief of the Gestapo's Jewish department, had supervised the implementation of the "final solution." . . .
Wiesenthal never relaxed in his pursuit of the elusive Eichmann, who had disappeared at the time of Germany's defeat in World War II. Finally, through the collaborative efforts of Wiesenthal and Israeli agents, Eichmann was located in Buenos Aires, Argentina, under the alias of Ricardo Klement, in 1959.

Wiesenthal does not usually track down the Nazi fugitives physically. In fact, he rarely leaves Austria. His chief task is gathering and analyzing information. . . .
Painstakingly, Wiesenthal culls every pertinent document and record he can get his hands on and goes over and over the many personal accounts told him by individual survivors. With an architect's structural acumen, a Talmudist's thoroughness, and a brilliant talent for investigative thinking, he pieces together the most obscure, incomplete, and apparently irrelevant data to build cases solid enough to stand up in a court of law. . . .
According to some observers he looks something like a plainclothes cop; others note that his friendly, cheerful manner belies the fact that his full-time occupation is tracking down murderers. . . .

Akin Gump: The Job Termination About Nothing

Variation I: Doing It For the Show -- The Missing Person Report About Nothing

I suppose that by now everybody has heard of Balloon Boy. The Colorado balloon incident (also known as the Heene Hoax, Balloon Boy Hoax, or Balloon Boy Incident) occurred on October 15, 2009, when a six-year-old was mistakenly believed to have floated away in a home-made balloon, attracting world-wide attention. Falcon Heene, of Fort Collins, Colorado, was believed to be traveling at altitudes reaching 7,000 feet (2,100 m) in a homemade helium balloon colored and shaped to resemble a silver flying saucer-type of UFO. Falcon, referred to as the "Balloon Boy" by some media outlets, had reportedly climbed into the balloon, after which it became untethered and launched.  In fact, the Balloon Boy had never left his home; the reported missing person incident was a stunt.

In an interview with Wolf Blitzer on Larry King Live that evening, in response to a question about why he was hiding, Falcon said to his father, "You guys said that, um, we did this for the show." This added to speculation that the incident was a hoax and publicity stunt engineered by the boy's father, Richard Heene. On October 18, Larimer County sheriff Jim Alderden announced his conclusion that the incident was a hoax, and that the parents would likely face several felony charges.

Variation III:  The Job Termination About Nothing -- Alleging that an Employee is Paranoid & Potentially Violent "Just for the Show"

LAURENCE HOFFMAN: Federal anti-discrimination lawsuits are the No. 1 source of billable hours for American law firms today. And you know why that is? Because lawyers like to say "Title VII."

DENNIS RACE: It must be impossible for a civil rights lawyer to file for bankruptcy. Title VII, chapter 7. Excuse me, I'd like to file chapter 7. Don't you mean Title VII?

LAURENCE HOFFMAN: It must be impossible for a bankruptcy lawyer to fire somebody. Chapter 7, Title VII. Excuse me, I'd like to fire this man, but I don't wanna get in trouble under Title VII. Don't you mean chapter 7? [to Dennis Race:] Hey, what's the matter?

DENNIS RACE: Nothin.

LAURENCE HOFFMAN: You sure? You look a little pale.

DENNIS RACE: I'm fine. Good. Very good.

LAURENCE HOFFMAN: What, are you nervous?

DENNIS RACE: No. I'm not nervous. I'm good. I'm very good. [becomes agitated:] I can't do this. I can't do this!

LAURENCE HOFFMAN: What?

DENNIS RACE: I can't do it. I tried. I'm here. It's impossible.

LAURENCE HOFFMAN: Firing him was your idea.

DENNIS RACE: What idea? I just said something. I didn't know you were gonna listen to me.

LAURENCE HOFFMAN: Don't worry about it. They're just FBI.

DENNIS RACE: They're federal agents, Larry. They wear suits. They carry guns.

LAURENCE HOFFMAN: I told you not to fire him.

DENNIS RACE: Say, who is it we're supposed to see?

LAURENCE HOFFMAN: Carter. I think his name is Jimmy Carter.

DENNIS RACE: There's actually an FBI agent named Jimmy Carter? Wouldn't that be like a President of the United States named Hoover?

LAURENCE HOFFMAN: There was a President of the United States named Hoover, you idiot.

DENNIS RACE: Hey, who are you calling idiot?

LAURENCE HOFFMAN: Keep your voice down.

DENNIS RACE: No, I will not keep my voice down. You can't make me keep my voice down!

JIMMY CARTER [enters]: We do not allow any loud arguing, disruptive disputes, or irritating harangues here in the J. Edgar Hoover Building. And if you boys cannot keep it down, I'm going to have to ask both of you to leave.

A Legal Irony?

In a criminal case in which a defendant pleads an insanity defense, wouldn't the following evidence be admissible by the state to rebut the defendant's claim?

http://dailstrug.blogspot.com/2009/10/do-i-really-have-delusional-disorder.html

In a case in which an individual alleges, without concrete evidence, that he is a victim of a criminal conspiracy carried out by his former employer, why is the above link not sufficient for the state to initiate a criminal investigation of the individual's allegation?

Keep in mind, theoretically speaking, there are people who might have cognitive capacities that enable them to interpret subtle cues in their environment: that allow them to see things that other people don't:

What did Attorney General Eric Holder Know and When Did He Know It? Background of Defamation

In June 2009 I forwarded to one of U.S. Attorney General Eric H. Holder, Jr.'s former law partners at the firm of Covington & Burling (Jeffrey G. Huvelle)  the following email inquiring into legal representation concerning a civil rights violation I experienced that grew out of the illegal activities of my former employer, the law firm of Akin Gump, Strauss, Hauer and Feld. Mr. Huvelle did not reply. But I did get a reply from former U.S. Attorney General Dick Thornburgh, now an attorney in private practice.

On January 15, 2010 the U.S. Department of Justice sent two U.S. Marshals to my residence to direct me, under penalty of criminal prosecution, not to contact Mr. Huvelle again.  Both Attorney General Eric H. Holder, Jr. and DOJ Criminal Division Chief Lanny Breuer were law partners of Mr. Huvelle's before they assumed their current positions at DOJ.

Mr. Huvelle did not personally advise me not to contact him.

Dear Sir:

I was a victim of a federal civil rights violation committed by the Metropolitan Police of the District of Columbia (MPDC), on October 12, 2004. The violation is a continuing one.

I am prevented from seeking employment and invoking my rights as a disabled American because of intimidation by the MPDC. If I disclose the full nature of my disability to a prospective employer I risk arrest or commitment to a mental hospital.

The following letter details the matter.

The Honorable Charles Ramsey
Chief of Police
300 Indiana Avenue, NW
Washington, DC

RE: Mental Disability -- Discrimination -- Police/FBI

Dear Chief Ramsey:

I am writing to you, Chief Ramsey, to apprise the Office of Chief of Police of a serious police matter that arose in the second district on October 12, 2004. Underlying the police matter is an issue of discrimination involving the DC Office of Corporation Counsel.

I forwarded a letter to the Washington Field Office of the FBI concerning the following matter on October 23, 2004.

I have been unemployed and disabled under U.S. Social Security Administration eligibility rules since October 29, 1991. My Social Security no. is xxx xx xxxx.

I am a patient of the DC Department of Mental Health (Patient no. xxxxxx). I receive psychotropic medications from the DC Department of Mental Health.

I was employed as a paralegal at the Washington, DC law firm of Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld until October 29, 1991. Dennis M. Race, Esq. (202 887 4028), a senior management partner, terminated my employment upon determining in consultation with a psychiatrist (who did not examine me personally) that there were reasonable concerns about my mental health and stability that rendered me unsuitable for employment. Freedman v. DC Dept. of Human Rights, 96-CV-961 (DCCA, Sept. 1998). The fact that I had received "above average or outstanding" job performance ratings during my three-and-one-half-year tenure was not disputed; also undisputed was the fact that my personnel file contained no record of reprimands, oral or written.

SSA granted my claim for benefits (in August 1993) in part based on Mr. Race's sworn interrogatory responses filed with the DC Dept. of Human Rights (in May 1992); SSA's disability determination date, October 29, 1991, was the date of job termination.

There is substantial evidence that Mr. Race's interrogatory responses were perjured; that Mr. Race did not in fact consult with the psychiatrist, Gertrude R. Ticho, MD [now deceased], a physician licensed to practice in the District of Columbia. See Brief of Appellant, 96-CV-961. Additionally, I possess tape recordings of two telephone conversations in which Dr. Ticho denies any contacts or acquaintance with Dennis M. Race. Officer J.E. Williams, Badge 1226, Second District, Metro DC Police is in possession of copies of those conversations (202 282 0070).

I was seriously defamed by Mr. Race, my supervisor, a coworker (who was subsequently terminated for gross misconduct), and the DC Office of Corporation Counsel. In the past several months I have been sending out job inquiries to employers, which summarize allegations made against me by the above-named parties. On October 12, 2004 ten (10) Metro DC Police officers (including a second district supervisor) plus four (4) FBI agents showed up at my residence because of a letter I sent to an employer, who had contacted the police in alarm. The letter was purely factual; several prospective employers, including The Montgomery County Government, sent me a cordial reply to a nearly identical letter. So damaging was the defamation to which I was subjected that the police were convinced I must be insane to have written such a letter. The police had me transported to DC General Hospital in handcuffs for an emergency psychiatric examination. I was interviewed by a Dr. Martin at DC General (202 673 9319) (ECURA #224623) who determined that I did not require admission. I was released; no medication was administered, prescribed or recommended. Of course, the incident bolsters my Social Security disability claim. I have already received in excess of $100,000 in benefits.

The defamatory allegations about my character that arose at my last place of employment, which I have a legal duty to report to a prospective employer, may impose a constitutionally-impermissible burden on my ability to obtain employment. The allegations, made at my last place of employment, were presumably a substantial factor in SSA's disability determination. Despite the fact that the allegations were made at least 13 years ago, they remain material to my difficulties in my last employment situation.

Facts about my psychiatric treatment history since 1992 are peculiar, if not bizarre:

1. I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder in September 1992 as an outpatient at The George Washington University Medical Center Department of Psychiatry (Napoleon Cuenco, MD). The illness did not respond to lithium, and later underwent spontaneous remission.

2. I underwent comprehensive psychological testing at GW in May 1994 (William Fabian, Ph.D.). The testing did not yield a psychiatric diagnosis or disclose any psychotic thought processes. The testing yielded a valid profile. I was not on any meds at the time. The WAIS yielded a verbal IQ of 135 (99th percentile) and an overall IQ of 125 (above average).

3. In February 1996 I was diagnosed at GW (Dimitrios Georgopoulos, MD) with paranoid schizophrenia that later underwent spontaneous remission.

4. In March 1996 I took a psychological test called "The Wisconsin Scales of Psychosis Proneness" (Ramin Mojtabai, MD). Results were negative. I scored six non-perseverative errors -- one of the lowest possible scores, indicating high concept-formation ability. I was not on any meds at the time.

DC DEPT. OF MENTAL HEALTH

5. In July 1996 I entered the DC Dept. of Mental Health System. In January 1998 my psychiatrist, Dr. Singh (a resident) determined in consultation with his supervisor (Stephen Quint, MD) that I suffered from no diagnosis or condition for which meds were indicated.

6. In February 1999 Albert H. Taub, MD diagnosed me with paranoid schizophrenia, which later underwent spontaneous remission. I was later diagnosed with delusional disorder. That portion of my thinking termed delusional has not responded to three different antipsychotic meds: Zyprexa, Abilify, and Risperdal. I currently take Effexor for depression and Xanax for insomnia.

7. On March 16-17 2004 I had a minor bout of paranoid schizophrenia, so-called "24-hour" paranoid schizophrenia, diagnosed by Betsy Jane Cooper, MD. My treatment plan prepared on March 17, 2004 by my case manager/therapist, Dr. Israella Bash, records that Dr. Cooper diagnosed me with paranoid schizophrenia on March 17, 2004; Dr. Cooper prescribed Zyprexa on March 17, 2004, which I took for about a month. There was no change in my delusional thinking. My current diagnosis is delusional disorder. Again, Dr. Martin at DC General recommended no anti-psychotic meds during my emergency psychiatric assessment on October 12, 2004; I was not agitated on October 12, 2004--my blood pressure was normal, 130/85.

I am totally socially isolated. I have no friends. I haven't spoken to my only relative, an older sister, since February 1996.

I have created an imaginary friend who I write letters to periodically, Brian Patrick Brown, manager of the Cleveland Park Branch of the DC Library System. The enclosed disc contains some of my recent letters to Brian.

I like Brian a lot, and would welcome him as a real friend. How I wish I could be Brian's real buddy!

My therapist, Dr. Bash (DC Dept. of Mental Health) is at 202 576 8939. My psychiatrist, Henry Barbot, MD, is at 202 576 8946.

Thank you. The U.S. Attorney's Office in DC (202 514 7566) is familiar with this matter.

In closing, this will respectfully advise the Office of Chief of Police that I have a constitutionally-protected right to seek employment. Also, in order to invoke my rights under the Americans With Disabilities Act I must fully apprise a prospective employer of facts concerning my disability, including allegations (however defamatory) placed in controversy by Dennis M. Race, Esq., his employees, and the DC Office of Corporation Counsel. State action that impairs my right to seek employment or my right to protections under federal law may be legally actionable.

Sincerely,

Gary Freedman

RE: EMPLOYMENT -- ARMED, MASS HOMICIDE -- REASONABLE APPREHENSION OF HARM

Dear Sir:

I am writing to you at the express direction of the Metropolitan District of Columbia Police Department (Officer J.E. Williams, Badge 1226, Second District, Washington, DC: 202 282 0070) that I actively seek employment consistent with my high intelligence as well as my professional and academic credentials.

I am specifically interested in the position of senior legislative attorney for the Montgomery County Council. I am an attorney, licensed to practice in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. I hold an advanced degree (Master of Laws) in international trade law.

I am a disabled American, and I qualify for the legal protections of the Americans with Disabilities Act. I believe I have a legal duty to apprise you, as a prospective employer, of the following matters.

1. TERRORISTIC THREATS: On April 21, 2004 the Metro DC Police issued a protective order against me, on the petition of Brian Patrick Brown, Manager of the Cleveland Park Branch of the DC Public Library. Brian Brown alleged that I had made terrorist threats, in writing, against unspecified persons. The six-month order of protection prohibits my entering or loitering in the vicinity of said library, under penalty of arrest and prosecution. The investigating officer was the aforementioned Officer Williams. This will advise that at this time I continue to satisfy the prognostic criteria that were determined by the Metro DC Police in April 2004 to indicate that I am at significant risk of committing a crime of violence or arousing a reasonable apprehension of committing a crime of violence. It is likely that I will satisfy said criteria for committing a crime of violence or arousing a reasonable apprehension of same in the future event I obtain employment with The Montgomery County Council. On April 21, 2004 Officer Williams stated to me: "You seem OK to me right now, but what I'm worried about is what's going to happen a few days from now." Obviously, my future conduct was a substantial concern to the Metro DC Police. [Note that if I had made an actual threat I would have been arrested or transported to DC General Hospital for a forensic psychiatric examination. It is clear that what the MPDC did was to simply rubber-stamp a specious request made by a supervisory DC employee.]

2. VIOLENCE-RISK DETERMINATION: My former employer, Dennis M. Race, Esq. (202 887 4028), a senior management partner at the law firm of Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld, determined, in consultation with a psychiatrist, that my thinking was consistent with a psychiatric "disorder" that might be associated with a risk of violent behavior. See Freedman v. DC Dept. of Human Rights, 96-CV-961 (DCCA, Sept. 1998). [The psychiatrist did not evaluate me personally. There is no documentary evidence that Mr. Race, in fact, consulted a psychiatrist. Under applicable law, the employer had a burden of production, not a burden of persuasion -- a very low evidentiary threshold.] Mr. Race determined that my continued presence on the firm's premises might pose a risk of tort liability for the firm, and terminated my employment effective October 29, 1991. I have been unemployed and disabled under Social Security Administration eligibility rules since the date of the termination. My thinking, upon which Mr. Race's violence-risk determination was based, remains unchanged.

3. HOMICIDE-RISK DETERMINATION: Shortly after conferring with Mr. Race about his forensic psychiatric determination, my supervisor called a meeting of her employees to advise them that she had formed a reasonable apprehension that I might have been planning to kill her [an act of defamation]. The supervisor undertook [self-serving] protective measures [to give the appearance that she needed] to ensure her safety as well as that of her employees against a possible future homicidal assault. See Brief of Appellant. Mr. Race did not challenge appellant's brief. The supervisor was a senior non-attorney manager who reported directly to a member of the firm's management committee, R. Bruce MacLean, Esq. Mr. MacLean is the firm's current managing partner.

4. ARMED, MASS HOMICIDAL ASSAULT: The DC Corporation Counsel determined, sua sponte [relying on legally-irrelevant, "after-acquired" evidence], that my coworkers had formed genuine and credible fears that I might carry out an armed, mass homicidal assault on the firm's premises, and that said widespread fears of an armed, mass homicide were material to Mr. Race's termination decision. See Brief of Appellee, District of Columbia (citing statement of coworker [who was later terminated for gross misconduct] in record on appeal: "We're all afraid of you. We're all afraid you're going to buy a gun, bring it in and shoot everybody!"). At oral argument before the DC Court of Appeals, the Assistant Corporation Counsel declared to the Court, referencing the above record evidence, that I had "admitted" that my "coworkers were afraid of" me. Mr. Race did not challenge the District's handling of 96-CV-961.

5. MULTIPLE ARMED HOMICIDE UNDER FEDERAL LAW: On the evening of August 6, 1998 two Special Agents of the US Capitol Police (Threat Investigation Unit) forcibly entered my home, after frisking me for weapons, and proceeded to interrogate me about an allegation made by a DC employee that, earlier in the day, at the height of an enraged argument, I had threatened to kill two federal officers at point-blank range, execution style in the Capitol rotunda. Later investigation by Agent Steven Horan disclosed that said allegation was mistakenly based on a letter I had written to my psychiatrist (Stephen Quint, MD) and copied to a DC agency that factually summarized Mr. Race's violence-risk determination [an act of defamation]; my supervisor's homicide-risk determination [an act of defamation]; as well as the DC Corporation Counsel's determination that my coworkers had formed a reasonable apprehension that I might commit an armed, mass homicide [an act of defamation]. Though I was exonerated of making unlawful threats, Officer Horan photo ID'd me to all federal officers assigned to the U.S. Capitol Building as a protective measure.

6. POTENTIAL TERRORIST: On August 7, 1998 Agent Horan advised me that the federal government (unbeknownst to me) had previously placed my name on a national registry of potential terrorists because of a letter I had written in 1996 to a local psychiatric facility (The Meyer Clinic), inquiring into out-patient services. Said letter elaborated Mr. Race's violence-risk determination [an act of defamation] as well as my supervisor's homicide-risk determination [an act of defamation].

7. PRESIDENTIAL THREAT: On the afternoon of August 7, 1998 two Special Agents of the U.S. Secret Service placed me under house arrest because of concerns I might pose a risk of harm to President Clinton. The two Secret Service agents were part of a team of six federal special agents who had been assigned to interrogate me and secure my person, over a two-day period (August 6-7, 1998). Federal law enforcement concerns were aroused by a letter I had written and sent to a DC agency that discussed the federal civil rights implications of the DC Corporation Counsel's handling of 96-CV-961. I had sent an identical letter to U.S. Senator Arlen Specter (R.-PA.) on Capitol Hill, who responded with a cordial and personalized reply. Senator Specter, a former prosecutor, saw absolutely nothing threatening about the letter I had written, much less did he see the need to assign six federal special agents to interrogate me and secure my person.

8. POSSIBLE DOCUMENT FORGERY: The District speculates that I might have filed an inauthentic letter with a DC agency (purportedly written by a psychiatrist) in order to invidiously deny competent forensic psychiatric evidence proffered by Mr. Race under oath that showed I had been reasonably determined to be potentially violent. Presumably, according to the District [contrary to well-established case law], I might have forged a psychiatrist's signature and/or fabricated her letterhead. The U.S. Attorney's Office in DC has not yet issued me a notice of an intent to prosecute me.

9. UNLAWFUL SEXUAL THOUGHTS: The DC Corporation Counsel determined, sua sponte [relying on legally-irrelevant, "after-acquired" evidence], that private, undisclosed sexual thoughts I experienced on April 13, 1990 concerning the activity of masturbation were material to Mr. Race's termination decision as well as to Mr. Race's violence-risk determination. Mr. Race did not challenge the District's brief. I admit to having sexual thoughts in the workplace.

I look forward to hearing from you. Please send my regards to Doug Gansler, Esq. He's a bit of an attention seeker, but he knows what he's talking about.

Sincerely,

A Provocative Letter to the White House -- 1997

The following is a provocative letter I sent to the White House Counsel, Charles F.C. Ruff, in June 1997.  Charles Ruff was a former Covington & Burling partner and also served as U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia years earlier.  In June 1997 Lanny Breuer, Esq., another Covington & Burling partner, also served in the Office of White House Counsel.  Lanny Breuer is currently Chief of the Criminal Division, U.S. Department of Justice. U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, former U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, was a Covington & Burling partner during the period 2001-2009.  I wonder if Charles Ruff showed this letter to anyone?

In 1996, during the pendency of Freedman v. D.C. Department of Human Rights before the D.C. Superior Court, Charles Ruff served as D.C. Corporation Counsel.  In May 1996 the D.C. Corporation Counsel filed a brief with the D.C. Superior Court that affirmed, using legally-irrelevant evidence, that my coworkers at the law firm of Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld had genuine fears that I might have been armed and extremely dangerous in August 1989 -- a bizarre assertion given the fact that I was not fired until more than two years later, in late October 1991.  William J. Earl, Esq. was the Assistant Corporation Counsel who wrote the brief.

The letter printed below, addressed to the White House, did not provoke an inquiry by the U.S. Secret Service.  Coincidentally, in June 1997 former Akin Gump partner, Edward S. Knight, Esq. served as General Counsel of the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the parent organization of the U.S. Secret Service.

RE: FREEDMAN V. D.C. DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN RIGHTS D.C. COURT OF APPEALS NO. 96-CV-961

Dear Mr. Ruff:

This will advise you, as a courtesy, of the status of the above-referenced appeal. The District of Columbia Superior Court proceedings below, Freedman v. D.C. Department of Human Rights, no. MPA 95-14, was defended by the District of Columbia Office of Corporation Counsel during your tenure.

The matter in controversy raises issues that may relate in an ancillary way to possible concerns of the White House Counsel.

Additionally, the appeal may carry media interest and relate to matters of public concern. Some time ago, an attorney with the American Civil Liberties Union advised me that I might want to go public with this matter.

You may find it useful to review this matter with FBI Supervisory Special Agent David M. Bowie, Washington Field Office, (202) 252-7801.

Sincerely,

Gary Freedman

I want to point out, however, than an enterprising journalist could make a story out of facts contained in letters that I have already supplied to you.

Tabloids Report Clinton Friends Shield Mental Patient; Rubin Denies Secret Service Protected Strauss Firm

A spokesman for Treasury Secretary Robert E. Rubin today refused to comment on news stories--reported in the tabloid press--that the Secret Service, at Rubin's direction, limited the scope of an investigation into a possible Presidential security threat in order to shield Rubin's long-time friend, Robert S. Strauss.

The investigation concerned the activities of a man, described as severely disturbed, who wrote a series of ominous letters to the Secret Service and other federal agencies that referred to President Clinton.

The man, known only as Anonymous, had been an employee of the Washington law firm of Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld, founded by Robert S. Strauss, former Ambassador to Russia. Strauss has been a close personal friend of Rubin's for many years.

Strauss, contacted at Akin Gump's Washington Office, refused to comment.

The tabloid press has raised questions in recent days about whether Strauss may have asked his long-time friend and confidant Rubin to order the Secret Service to limit the scope of the investigation, reportedly because any publicity concerning a full investigation might open a "hornet's

RE: Weapons Possession - Intent to Inflict Grievous Bodily Harm/Possible Intent to Commit Murder - D.C. Corporation Counsel Affirmation - Possible Concealment of State and/or Federal Weapons Law Violations - Unlawful False Statements 

Dear Mr. Holder:

This letter will constitute the formal reaffirmation of the following statement previously forwarded to the Office of U.S. Attorney: "Statement of Gary Freedman to the Office of U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Regarding Intent to Commit Crime of Violence as Determined by the Law Firm of Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld," dated April 24, 1995.

This reaffirmation is offered in the wake of the express affirmation by the D.C. Office of Corporation Counsel that an Akin Gump coworker's statement, made in about August 1989, that I might be armed and homicidal 1/ was not evidence of a hostile, offensive, or intimidating work environment, and that these specific fears (namely, that I might acquire firearms and possess the intent to inflict grievous bodily harm or commit murder) were relevant to the employer's decision to terminate my employment. See Brief of Respondent in Opposition to Petition for Review of no Probable Cause Determination by Department of Human Rights at 6, Freedman v. D.C. Department of Human Rights, D.C. Superior Court no. MPA 95-14 (final order issued June 10, 1996). The express affirmation by the D.C. Office of Corporation Counsel that an Akin Gump coworker had genuine fears that I might be armed and homicidal conflicts with the statement dated April 24, 1995 that I made to the D.C. Office of U.S. Attorney under penalty of criminal sanctions that I have never possessed, or had the intent to acquire, firearms and have never engaged in violent threats.

I understand that my violation of D.C. Code 22-2514 (providing for criminal sanctions for making false statements) may subject me to possible criminal investigation and prosecution. I welcome such an investigation.

Akin Gump is managed at its highest level by a three-member Executive Committee that includes as members Robert S. Strauss (a close friend and personal confidant of U.S. Treasury Secretary Robert E. Rubin) and Vernon E. Jordan, Jr. (a close friend and personal confidant of President Clinton). Any criminal investigation by the Office of U.S. Attorney that were to reveal that I had in fact made violent threats during my employment (consistent with the express affirmation by the D.C. Office of Corporation Counsel that a coworker's concern about my potential for homicide was genuine) would necessarily raise questions as to why Akin Gump managers failed to learn of such threats and/or disclose the threats to law enforcement officials. 

I know that a decision by the Office of U.S. Attorney not to institute a criminal investigation is never influenced by political considerations.

Sincerely,

Gary Freedman

Silent Knight

To the Powers that Be:

During my employment at the law firm of Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld (1988-1991) one of the partners was Edward S. Knight, Esq., a Texas lawyer-lobbyist who worked closely with Joel Jankowsky and Robert Strauss.  Jankowsky is now one of the firm's senior managers.  In the late 1990s, during President Clinton's second term, Knight was named General Counsel of the U.S. Department of the Treasury: at that time the parent organization of the U.S. Secret Service.  The Treasury Secretary at that time was Robert Rubin, a close friend of Robert S. Strauss.  It was Strauss, reportedly, who persuaded President Clinton to name Rubin to the post of Treasury Secretary.

In 1997 I sent an employment inquiry to Treasury General Counsel Edward Knight.  I believe that Knight knows a lot about Akin Gump's illegal activities relating to me.  Are we to believe that Knight didn't contact his former law partners at Akin Gump when he received my letter in 1997?

http://dailstrug.blogspot.com/2010/01/edward-s-knight-esq-notice-of-fraud-and.html

If Knight has information that I might have been armed and extremely dangerous in August 1989, as alleged by the D.C. Attorney General to the D.C. Court of Appeals, he has a duty to divulge what he knows.  See Brief of Appellant District of Columbia, Freedman v. D.C. Dept. Human Rights, D.C.C.A. no. 96-CV-961 (Sept. 1, 1998).   If Knight has information concerning Dennis Race's determination in October 1991 that I was potentially violent and a negligence risk to the firm, he has a duty to divulge what he knows.   If Knight has information that I was homicidal and had plans to kill my supervisor and that protective measures had to be taken to guard against a homicidal assault -- as alleged by my direct supervisor in October 1991 -- he has a duty to divulge what he knows.  If Knight has knowledge that, in fact, I engaged in (unspecified) "violent" acts during my employment, as alleged by Dennis Race in a sworn statement to the D.C. Department of Human Rights, he needs to divulge what he knows ("C. Claimant was told that "there did not appear to be a good fit" because of his . . . (3) his violent behavior; and (4) his paranoia.").

Sounds Like the Plot of an Alfred Hitchcock Movie!

To the Department of Homeland Security:

The following is an email message I sent to Secret Service Special Agent xxxxx xxxxxxx regarding the action of psychiatrists in falsely diagnosing me with paranoid schizophrenia, a severe and disabling psychotic mental illness. The Department of Homeland Security needs to investigate why psychiatrists would attempt to make me appear to be insane. A psychiatrist at the George Washington University Medical Center, Suzanne M. Pitts, M.D., tried to dope me up with a potent anti-psychotic medication only weeks after I filed the following pleading with the D.C. Department of Human Rights. Supposedly, according to GW, I suffered from a disabling psychotic mental illness when I wrote the following pleading.

On March 11, 1996, at a time when, according to Dimitrios Georgopoulos, M.D., I suffered from paranoid schizophrenia, I scored 6 nonperseverative errors on the Wisconsin Scales of Psychosis Proneness, the lowest meaningful score.  The score is inconsistent with psychotic mental illness.

The Department of Homeland Security Needs to Investigate the Roots of the Accusation that I was Armed and Extremely Dangerous

To the Department of Homeland Security:

For your information I forward an email message I transmitted to Secret Service Special Agent xxxxx xxxxxxx. The link contains a document prepared by Dennis M. Race, Esq. (202 887 4028), a senior partner at the D.C. law firm of Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld alleging that the firm determined in October 1991 that I was paranoid and potentially violent and that I posed a negligence risk to the firm. Mr. Race's statement appears to be perjured.

The false allegation of Dennis Race that I was potentially violent; the false statement of Christine Robertson, a firm supervisor, that I was potentially homicidal and her action in securing her office against a homicidal assault; and the false statement of the D.C. Corporation Counsel (M. Justin Draycott, Esq.) that my coworkers had genuine and credible fears that I might have been armed and extremely dangerous in August 1989 have caused severe problems for the Metropolitan Police of the District of Columbia as well as the U.S. Secret Service since 1994. The circumstances of my job termination need to be investigated by the Department of Homeland Security.

The following is an email message that I received from the former Attorney General of the United States, Governor Dick Thornburgh, Esq., now an attorney in private practice.

I believe that Dennis Race lied, which makes these documents false sworn statements, a crime in the District of Columbia. I believe that I do not now nor have I ever posed a risk of violence to anyone, including protectees of the U.S. Secret Service or the U.S. Marshal Service. I have no arrest record at age 56, and no one has ever sued me in a civil case.

email Message to Senator Robert Menendez (D-NJ) 11/26/10

Senator Menendez:

Under normal circumstances the act of defrauding the federal government of a half million dollars would be a serious matter. It seems that in Attorney General Holder's Justice Department, if the fraud involves a close friend, namely Vernon Jordan, it is not even considered a crime.

On Friday January 15, 2010 I was interviewed by Deputy U.S. Marshal xxxxxxx xxxxxxxxx, 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.

I believe it is an outrage (and possibly an obstruction of Justice) that the U.S. Marshal more or less told me in January that I should not be angry about this matter and questioned why I have been blogging about this. Who wouldn't be angry?

email Message to Senator Mary L. Landrieu (D-LA) 11/24/10

Senator Landrieu:

Under normal circumstances the act of defrauding the federal government of a half million dollars would be a serious matter. It seems that in Attorney General Holder's Justice Department, if the fraud involves a close friend, namely Vernon Jordan, it is not even considered a crime.

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.

I maintain a blog on the Internet titled My Daily Struggles. I draw your specific attention to the following posts that contain information that may be of interest to you:
