 <title>Hope Steffey a Woman Falsely Convicted</title>
 <link>http://abesturn.com/2008/12/15/conscience-lends-aid-woman-falsely-convicted#comment-7492</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Heres some more info about this case, this is a Cut &amp;amp; Paste I have been posting:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is the BCI report that Agent Christy S. Palmer sent to John D. Ferrero, Prosecuting Attorney Stark County Ohio.&lt;br /&gt;
Dated April 16, 2008 BCI Case #: SI-76-08-14-0147&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is part of page 3&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://s2.photobucket.com/albums/y39/Zemo999/?action=view&amp;amp;current=BCI-Report.jpg&quot; title=&quot;http://s2.photobucket.com/albums/y39/Zemo999/?action=view&amp;amp;current=BCI-Report.jpg&quot;&gt;http://s2.photobucket.com/albums/y39/Zemo999/?action=view&amp;amp;current=BCI-Re&amp;#8230;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Sheriff Swanson has ALWAYS maintained that Steffey was ASKED &amp;amp; REFUSED to remove her cloths.&lt;br /&gt;
But here’s the BCI’s OWN REPORT that PROVES this is a LIE!&lt;br /&gt;
And then they try to explain away their first lie with another lie, about why it was done this way without asking Steffey to do it voluntarily.&lt;br /&gt;
They are trying to say that Steffey was resisting enough that EIGHT people couldn&amp;#8217;t take the chance of ASKING her to remove her cloths, or EVEN TELL HER WHAT WAS GOING ON!!!&lt;br /&gt;
What a crock!!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I did NOT see any resisting in the video, I saw eight cops parading her to the cell, with her in cuffs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In fact EVERY video I have seen she is in cuffs!&lt;br /&gt;
And the ONLY times I have seen her react to the cops is after they have assaulted her or in the process of stripping her naked.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But apparently catching the sheriff&amp;#8217;s dept in a lie isn&amp;#8217;t a big deal to our &amp;#8220;independent&amp;#8221; BCI investigator, Christy Palmer, who seems ready to accept ANY excuse the sheriff&amp;#8217;s dept wants to use.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The report also goes on to say that they lowered Steffey in a slow controlled manner to the floor. Except that Steffey says she was thrown to the floor.&lt;br /&gt;
She also told her husband in a phone call that she thought the cops had broken her nose.&lt;br /&gt;
And she was treated by the nurse for the injury.&lt;br /&gt;
And in page 4 of this report Christy Palmer even states that Steffey reported that her nose was making &amp;#8220;crunching noises&amp;#8221;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So I guess this is proof of a second LIE! (Or third)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And still Christy Palmer, the &amp;#8220;independent investigator&amp;#8221; doesn’t think twice about accepting the word of the cops over the VICTIMS in spite of proof.&lt;br /&gt;
BTW, Christy also references a video that she says “proves that she was lowered in a slow controlled manner to the floor”. As far as I know, THIS would have to be on the &amp;#8217;non-existent&amp;#8217; beginning of the strip video.&lt;br /&gt;
On May 5th when I asked about the &amp;#8220;missing&amp;#8221; video, I was told it would soon be released.&lt;br /&gt;
Now here again it looks as though it’s referenced&amp;#8230;even though they NOW claim it does not exist.&lt;br /&gt;
Interesting. (I have filed a request for this video.)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This isn’t so much an investigation report as it is a smear campaign against Hope Steffey.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The cops can polish this turd as much as want, this STILL STINKS!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;BTW I don&amp;#8217;t know why they bothered to black out the names of Nurse Coren Lennon and the jail psychologist Thomas Anuszkiewicz, aren&amp;#8217;t they PROUD of the work they do?&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Re: Is It Really a &quot;Police State&quot;?</title>

 <description>&lt;p&gt;Various states and cities take turns beating down their citizens.  Some may be mere PR blunders, but others seem like something more sinister.  One recent one I was amazed to hear about was the permaculture bus seizure (aka PermiBus) in Michigan.  &lt;/p&gt;
