What Did Andrew Gerst Know and When Did He Know It?

To the U.S. Marshal Service:

At my USMS interview on January 15, 2010 you asked about what it was that motivated me to write a blog. The following email dated August 10, 2005 establishes that I started the blog in the summer of 2005, five years ago. I advised Andrew Gerst, Esq., legal council to then D.C. Council Member Carol Schwartz, of the existence of the blog. At the inception of my blogging I advised the D.C. government that the blog might be of interest to the D.C. Police and federal law enforcement. I cannot be held accountable for the failure of Mr. Gerst to contact the FBI or the U.S. Marshal Service about this matter. Incidentally, Andrew Gerst was a long-time resident of my apartment building, 3801 Connecticut Avenue, NW. He moved out at the time Councilwoman Schwartz lost her re-election bid a few years ago.

Mr. Gerst,

This will alert you to the existence of my blog. The URL is garfreed.blogspot.com.  The blog contains information of possible interest to local and federal law enforcement. You may at your discretion advise the authorities of your choice about the blog. The Metro DC Police may find the documents of interest. Officer J.E. Williams (2d District), badge 1226, is familiar with my case. I will add to the blog from time to time.
