Jury Duty -- Letter to US Attorney

RE: Jury Duty -- Participant # 101476514   Juror # 01-1442

Dear Mr. Machen:


I have been summoned for jury duty by the U.S. District Court of Washington, DC.  I have been diagnosed with severe mental illness (paranoid schizophrenia) and have been continuously unemployed and disabled since October 29, 1991.  I take anti-psychotic medication, but medical treatment has not modified my seemingly delusional thinking.  I believe that I have been under surveillance by my former employer, the law firm of Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld, since October 1988, the past 25 years.  My psychiatric records state that my judgment is "grossly impaired" (Didi Bailey, MD).


I believe that the following individuals have been involved, if only tangentially, in surveillance of me: Judge David Sentelle (a poker buddy of the late Bob Strauss); Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg (a neighbor of the late Bob Strauss at The Watergate); former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan (a friend of the late Bob Strauss); President Barack Obama (a friend of Vernon E. Jordan, Jr.); U.S. Attorney General Eric H. Holder, Jr. (a friend of Vernon E. Jordan, Jr.); and former President Bill Clinton (a friend of Vernon E. Jordan, Jr.).


A decision by a District Court judge to seat me on a jury may constitute reversible error in any proceedings in which I serve as a juror.  I plan to raise the issues set forth in the following documents in open court before the presiding judge at voir dire.


Sincerely,

Gary Freedman
Washington, DC

RE:  Participant # 101476514   Juror # 01-1442

Dear Ms. Caesar:

I have been summoned for Jury duty, Date of Service Friday May 2, 2014 - Friday, May 16, 2014.  I enclose a completed Juror Qualification Questionnaire.  I am at a loss as to how to answer question no. 14: Grounds for Requesting Excuse.  I believe that I am qualified to serve as a juror, however there are issues about my mental health that I have a duty to disclose to the court.  In the event I am determined qualified for jury duty I plan to raise the following issues in open court before the presiding judge at voir dire.  Again, I believe that I have a constitutionally-protected right to serve as a juror and that I, in fact, am qualified to serve.

1.  I have been disabled and continuously unemployed since October 29, 1991.  Attorney managers of the law firm of Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld (Akin Gump) (Dennis M. Race, Esq. 202 887 4028; Malcolm Lassman, Esq.; Laurence J. Hoffman, Esq.; Earl L. Segal, Esq.; and unnamed members of the firm's management committee), my former employer, terminated my employment effective October 29, 1991 after determining, in consultation with a practicing psychiatrist, that a complaint of harassment I had lodged against my supervisor and others was the product of a psychiatric "disorder" that rendered me unsuitable for employment and a direct threat in the workplace.  Freedman v. D.C. Department of Human Rights, D.C.C.A. no. 96-CV-961 (September 1, 1998).  I have received monthly disability benefits paid by the U.S. Social Security Administration from September 1993 to the present.  See attached letter to Assistant U.S. Attorney Darrell Valdez (Felony Fraud Certification).  Judge xxxxx xxxxx xxxxxxx (in June 1996) affirmed a prior agency finding that Akin Gump's disability determination was genuine and credible in her former capacity as a D.C. Superior Court judge.

2.  There is evidence that Akin Gump's disability determination, upon which the U.S. Social Security Administration relied in awarding benefits, was not genuine or credible: that it was, in fact, malicious and defamatory and made with the intent to avoid the legal consequences of an unlawful job termination.  See attached Letter to Assistant U.S. Attorney Darrell Valdez.  See also Letter copied to Judge xxxxx xxxxx xxxxxxx dated March 19, 1996.

3.  I continue to believe that I was a victim of job harassment during my tenure at Akin Gump, which belief, according to Akin Gump's criteria, continues to render me mentally ill and a direct threat to persons in my environment.  See attached
Statement of Gary Freedman Concerning Mental Status Affirmation Made by the District of Columbia Office of Corporation Counsel.

4.  I believe that I have been under covert surveillance by Akin Gump since late October 1988; the surveillance has lasted the past 25 years and continues.  See attached Letter to U.S. Secret Service dated January 5, 2005.  See also attached Statement in Support of Social Security Disability Benefits (filed under penalty of perjury).

5.  I have provided a document to the U.S. Marshals Service indicating that I have a genuine, good-faith belief that Akin Gump had its agents break into my apartment throughout the period June 2001 to August 2003 to carry out covert surveillance.  See attached Letter to Deputy U.S. Marshal xxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx (Washington, DC) dated February 14, 2014.

6.  I have been diagnosed with the following severe (psychotic) mental illnesses: paranoid schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, paranoid (delusional) disorder, rule out schizoafffective disorder.  I believe these disorders were diagnosed as a direct result of Akin Gump's defamatory disability determination made in late October 1991 (see paragraph 1, above) and that these psychiatric diagnoses constitute the fruit of the poisonous tree.

Dear Mr. Race:

As a resident of the District of Columbia and a citizen of the United States, I may be summoned at any time to serve on a jury of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia or the Superior Court of the District of Columbia ("Courts").

Sworn statements filed by the law firm of Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld in D.C. Department of Human Rights and Minority Business Development Investigation docket no. 92-087-P(CN) concerning my mental health necessarily relate to my competence and fitness to serve as a juror and may, indeed, disqualify me from jury duty.

You are advised that should I be summoned for jury duty by either of the Courts, the subsequent failure by attorney managers of the law firm of Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld affirmatively to disavow to the Courts any prior misrepresentations said managers may have made regarding my mental health, and which failure by said managers causes either of the Courts to disqualify me from jury duty by reason of mental impairment, may constitute an unlawful act of interference by said attorney managers in the jury selection process of the Courts in violation of the laws of the United States and the District of Columbia.

This communication is offered as a courtesy to Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld, and is intended respectfully to advise that regardless of the bona fides of sworn statements filed by the firm with the D.C. Department of Human Rights, I am nonetheless in possession of documentary evidence that raises serious questions about the veracity of said sworn statements and may, ultimately, raise a fraud issue under either 28 U.S.C. Sec. 1865(b)(4) or D.C. Code Sec. 11-1906(b)(2)(A) should I be summoned for jury duty.

re: Jury Duty --  Participant # 101476514   Juror # 01-1442

Dear Mr. Caesar:

I have been determined to be capable of carrying out a mass homicidal assault (record on appeal at 41, Freedman v. D.C. Department of Human Rights).  Judge xxxxx xxxxx xxxxxxx in 1996 did not find that my former employer's action in securing the firm's office against a mass homicidal assault in October 1991 was malicious or discriminatory.  You may want to review with the Marshal whether it is advisable for me to enter the District Court to do jury duty.  Deputy Marshal xxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx is familiar with my case. 

I attach a letter I sent in the year 2004 to then DC Chief of Police Charles Ramsey.  The letter reviews concerns that I might become armed and extremely dangerous.
U.S. Attorney General Eric H. Holder, Jr. may know about the following letter and may have useful information to share with the Marshal.


1.  In August 1998 the U.S. Capitol Police received a report that I had threatened, at the height of a violent argument, to murder two U.S. Capitol police officers in the Capitol rotunda, point-blank range, execution style.

2.  In August 1998 the U.S. Capitol Police advised me that my name had been placed on a national registry of potentially violent offenders.

3.  In October 2004 10 Metro DC police officers plus 4 FBI agents were dispatched to my residence based on a report that I might become armed and extremely dangerous.

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,

Dear Mr. Caesar:

I have been determined to be capable of carrying out a mass homicidal assault (record on appeal at 41, Freedman v. D.C. Department of Human Rights).  Judge xxxxx xxxxx xxxxxxx in 1996 did not find that my former employer's action in securing the firm's office against a mass homicidal assault in October 1991 was malicious or discriminatory.  You may want to review with the Marshal whether it is advisable for me to enter the District Court to do jury duty.  Deputy Marshal xxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx is familiar with my case.

Re: Disability Claim xxx-xx-xxxx

Dear Ms. Peterson:

I offer the following statement in support of the above-referenced disability claim.

On the evening of July 1, 1993 I placed a telephone call to one of my former co-workers, Ms. Patricia McNeil, at my last place of employment, Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld.  Ms. McNeil advised me that immediately after my termination, my supervisor, Chris Robertson, had all the keys to the office changed because of her fears that I was homicidal.  Ms. McNeil stated that Chris Robertson, in about late October 1991, warned her employees, including Ms. McNeil, that I was potentially homicidal.

Ms. McNeil stated: "The only thing I knew is that  Chris [Robertson] sent the E-mail over the system, and she wanted all of us in the office, and the next thing, she said, 'no, forget about it.'  She said, 'Well, you all know that Gary, he's gone, and they're coming to change the locks because Gary may come back and he may kill me or something.'"

"All I know, Chris [Robertson] called a meeting.  She had sent an E-mail.  And then, all of a sudden she canceled the meeting.  She just said, 'Oh.'  And she said, 'they're coming to change the locks.  They should be down here because we're afraid he may come down here and try to kill us or something.'"

Sincerely,

Gary Freedman

Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld
1333 New Hampshire Ave., NW
Washington, DC

Dear Mr. Race:

As a resident of the District of Columbia and a citizen of the United States, I may be summoned at any time to serve on a jury of the United States District Court for the District of Columbia or the Superior Court of the District of Columbia ("Courts").

Sworn statements filed by the law firm of Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld in D.C. Department of Human Rights and Minority Business Development Investigation docket no. 92-087-P(CN) concerning my mental health necessarily relate to my competence and fitness to serve as a juror and may, indeed, disqualify me from jury duty.

You are advised that should I be summoned for jury duty by either of the Courts, the subsequent failure by attorney managers of the law firm of Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld affirmatively to disavow to the Courts any prior misrepresentations said managers may have made regarding my mental health, and which failure by said managers causes either of the Courts to disqualify me from jury duty by reason of mental impairment, may constitute an unlawful act of interference by said attorney managers in the jury selection process of the Courts in violation of the laws of the United States and the District of Columbia.

This communication is offered as a courtesy to Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld, and is intended respectfully to advise that regardless of the bona fides of sworn statements filed by the firm with the D.C. Department of Human Rights, I am nonetheless in possession of documentary evidence that raises serious questions about the veracity of said sworn statements and may, ultimately, raise a fraud issue under either 28 U.S.C. Sec. 1865(b)(4) or D.C. Code Sec. 11-1906(b)(2)(A) should I be summoned for jury duty.

Sincerely,

Gary Freedman

Jury Duty -- Akin Gump Interference with Constitutionally-Protected Right

RE:  Participant # 101476514   Juror # 01-1442

Dear Ms. Caesar:

I have been summoned for Jury duty, Date of Service Friday May 2, 2014 - Friday, May 16, 2014.  I enclose a completed Juror Qualification Questionnaire.  I am at a loss as to how to answer question no. 14: Grounds for Requesting Excuse.  I believe that I am qualified to serve as a juror, however there are issues about my mental health that I have a duty to disclose to the court.  In the event I am determined qualified for jury duty I plan to raise the following issues in open court before the presiding judge at voir dire.  Again, I believe that I have a constitutionally-protected right to serve as a juror and that I, in fact, am qualified to serve.

1.  I have been disabled and continuously unemployed since October 29, 1991.  Attorney managers of the law firm of Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld (Akin Gump) (Dennis M. Race, Esq. 202 887 4028; Malcolm Lassman, Esq.; Laurence J. Hoffman, Esq.; Earl L. Segal, Esq.; and unnamed members of the firm's management committee), my former employer, terminated my employment effective October 29, 1991 after determining, in consultation with a practicing psychiatrist, that a complaint of harassment I had lodged against my supervisor and others was the product of a psychiatric "disorder" that rendered me unsuitable for employment and a direct threat in the workplace.  Freedman v. D.C. Department of Human Rights, D.C.C.A. no. 96-CV-961 (September 1, 1998).  I have received monthly disability benefits paid by the U.S. Social Security Administration from September 1993 to the present.  See attached letter to Assistant U.S. Attorney Darrell Valdez (Felony Fraud Certification).  Judge xxxxx (in June 1996) affirmed a prior agency determination that Akin Gump's disability determination was genuine and credible in her former capacity as a D.C. Superior Court judge.

2.  There is evidence that Akin Gump's disability determination, upon which the U.S. Social Security Administration relied in awarding benefits, was not genuine or credible: that it was, in fact, malicious and defamatory and made with the intent to avoid the legal consequences of an unlawful job termination.  See attached Letter to Assistant U.S. Attorney Darrell Valdez.  See also Letter copied to Judge xxxxx dated March 19, 1996.

3.  I continue to believe that I was a victim of job harassment during my tenure at Akin Gump, which belief, according to Akin Gump's criteria, continues to render me mentally ill and a direct threat to persons in my environment.  See attached
Statement of Gary Freedman Concerning Mental Status Affirmation Made by the District of Columbia Office of Corporation Counsel.

4.  I believe that I have been under covert surveillance by Akin Gump since late October 1988; the surveillance has lasted the past 25 years and continues.  See attached Letter to U.S. Secret Service dated January 5, 2005.  See also attached
Statement in Support of Social Security Disability Benefits (filed under penalty of perjury).

5.  I have provided a document to the U.S. Marshals Service indicating that I have a genuine, good-faith belief that Akin Gump had its agents break into my apartment throughout the period June 2001 to August 2003 to carry out covert surveillance.  See attached Letter to Deputy U.S. Marshal xxxxx (Washington, DC) dated February 14, 2014.

6.  I have been diagnosed with the following severe (psychotic) mental illnesses: paranoid schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, paranoid (delusional) disorder, rule out schizoafffective disorder.  I believe these disorders were diagnosed as a direct result of Akin Gump's defamatory disability determination made in late October 1991 (see paragraph 1, above) and that these psychiatric diagnoses constitute the fruit of the poisonous tree.

Gary Freedman, Esq.
