Thanks so much for writing. As you probably know, I’m following Yolanda’s case with interest, and I wish you the best, as I do all the others who have lost their freedoms in this modern age of fear mongering and political crisis.

Sincerely,

Politics = Power & Money
I am the father of Yolanda Madden. The person the cops framed in Odessa, Texas. I was small business man for 30 years. Working hard and believing in the system I studied in School. You know - that lost class we refered to as “civics”. Wow! The world changed when I was asleep. Rip van Winkle has nothing on me.
During my two year investigation of police in Odessa, I discovered more than I expected. The corruption went to higher levels. You cannot have a climate of corruption in the police force without prosecutors, judges, and yes even “defence lawyers” or as I now find “plea lawyers going along to get along. The system is broke. Now for my first revelation of many. Two cops testified that Yolanda “confessed” to the crime. She did not and first time she saw the officer she “confessed” to was in court. Poly graphs of Yolanda and the “CI” indicate they were truthful. Officer testified in court that the Federal Prosecutor glen Jackson instructed him not to record interviews or confessions of cases that would be federal. Judge stated in transcript that he did not hear that!My investigation has turned up internal odessa police document that shows that indeed the Federal prosecutor had conspired with OPD to eliminate the 5th amendent rights of the accussed. The deal is that in the court of Federal Judge Junell Midland Texas- if two cops testify that you confessed then he will find you guilty. Will add that bad lawyers led to “bench trial” transcript actually shows it as a”kangaroo court” The Judge then made his findings of fact- which blatently conflict with actual testimony. He found cops credible that testified to physically impossible events. One found one piece of evidence in two different places. Another was in two places five miles apart at the same time!.
He found the CI credible to make police search legal, then found the same CI not credible when he testified the cops coerced him to plant the drugs. Trial was nightmare. You can not prepare for cops that “compose confessions” and are will to lie as they did. Federal prosecutor told judge perjury had happened and he “took that seriously” and would investigate. All defense witnesses took poly graph test awaiting the “investigation that never happened”. The prosecutor did not have FBI investigate (he knew who committed perjury -the cops) and FBI would not open investigation when we made charges agaisnt the police. That is when my two year investigation with all the police stone walling began. Finally have the proof now need the forum. All my proof consists of police records, transcripts, Internal affairs document, phone records, video tapes, emails from prosecutors, and eyewitnesses. Am loaded for the “bear” and await the court room now. Even that is hard when Fed Judges involved. True results of my investigation is “wake up America the system is broke”. War on drugs ( and I never have used or advocated illegal drugs) is just one more “crisis” to justify suspending the rights of those “scumbag dopeys”. Problem is if one loses his rights, then another, then another, well logic defines we will all loose. thanks for staying with my “rant”
God Bless and Save America!
