Foley Federal Building, NV
Foley Federal Building(Federal Courthouse), Las Vegas, NV
Complaint(cv-93-187)
was filed in May of 1993 while the engineering student was illegal incarcerated as a political prisoner in Nevada(having been chased across the country after filing a federal civil rights action in N.J. (cv-92-3553 W. Manzo vs. Bush, Stone, et al)
.

Clark County Courthouse, Las Vegas
Eighth Judicial District Court
Las Vegas, NV
The compaint was filed to leave a paper trail in case the student was murdered while a political prisoner. While incarcerated in Las Vegas(Clark County Detention Center) the student attempted to have his case brought trial__but since the charges were bogus and the Army - CIA were involved, they could not allow the case to reach the trial stage.

The student used the law library every day and was certain to have the case dismissed. When the student filed motions for reduction of bail and dismissal of the public defender, the Clark County authorities tortured the student trying to force bizarre and/or violent behavior. When that didn't work, they (illegally)took him out of general population module(~100 inmates) and placed him in solitary confinement__This is where the authorities conspired to obstructed justice.

Since the incarceration was politically based, the Army could not allow the case to reach the trial stage, when the student decided to eliminate the public defender and force the case to trial, the agents of the Army(and CIA) broke the law and obstructed justice. First they prevented him from accessing the legal library by placing him in solitary confinement(they also took his legal research documents and glasses). This is the tricky part__while he was in solitary confinement, the court jurisdiction was changed from the Henderson Municipal Court to the Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County. The case was given to Judge Thomas Foley (a WWII veteran), Dept. 13 of the Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County. The public defender motioned the court for a competency evaluation and a court date was set for the public defenders motion. Meanwhile, the student's motions for bail reduction and dismissal of the public defender were purposely not forwarded to Foley's court clerk, nor was the student notified of the court switch or motion by the public defender. The student had been effectively captured by the U.S. Army(CIA) at this point. Judge Foley was an Army (CIA) sympathizer and was not about to allow the case to go to trial.

Many attorneys(nation-wide) that the student called concerning being railroaded into an incompetency situation without procedural due process felt something very fishy was going on in Las Vegas__all of the attorneys felt the the student was competent to stand trial__this includes Mr. Michael Snyder, associate of the infamous Professor Allen Dershowitz of Harvard Law School.

The student was brought to the motion hearing without his glasses, legal documentation, or legal counsel___he was unshaven and in leg and hand cuffs___he was only allowed to speak after Foley granted the public defender his motion. He then tried to inform the judge that he had received no legal counsel and that he had motioned the court prior to the public defender's motion. Judge Foley laughed stating that the student had sent his motions to the wrong court.

After the motion hearing the student was returned to a general population module awaiting transport to the Lakes Crossing Center. (A letter from the Henderson Municipal court, indicating the court change and the forwarding of the student's motions, was delivered to the student a week after the public defender's motion hearing. The Henderson Municipal Court Judge promptly wrote the letter informing about the court change but the letter was not mailed(post dated) until the day of the motion hearing. Judge Foley died(1994) shortly after the student was released from the states custody.)

Reno - Sparks, Las Vegas
Reno - Sparks, NV
The Lakes Crossing Center is a hospital(jail) used to evaluate prisoners concerning mental competency to stand trial___ Lakes Crossing is located in Sparks(near Reno) approximately 500 miles North of Las Vegas. The student was sent to the Lakes Crossing Center not to be evaluated but to be physically and psychologically tortured in hopes of illiciting violent and bizarre behavior___and in order to use the student in an illegal radiation experiment(chemical castration). While being tortured at L.C.C. the student called attorneys in the Reno area who told him that he had the right to legal counsel and that he should file a federal civil rights action focusing on the fact that no legal counsel was provided by the state of Nevada. When the staff at L.C.C. became aware of this action they sent him back to Las Vegas.

The authorities purposely failed to inform the student of the upcoming competency hearing, nor did he receive legal counsel concerning the hearing___at the hearing fraudulent documents were supplied to Judge Foley and the student was not allowed to speak.

The federal complaint below outlines some of the civil rights violations that occured during the illegal political incarceration. Blue indicates the actual complaint, red indicates additional comments.

Similar occurenesses at the Clark County Detention Center, plaintiff was repeatedly threatened and told he was going to be killed. He was systematically whacked(clothes and bedding that caused testicular and stomach pain along with a burning sensation of the eyes) note: once the burning sensation stopped, when he changed clothes, the student regained some muscle tone and railroaded to the Lakes Crossing Center for the mentally impaired criminal.

The substance resulted in extreme burning sensation of the testicles, eyes, softening of the muscle tissue, softening of the hair texture, burning of the under-side of the hands causing all callouses to fall off, change of the bodily odor from musky to a more feminine sent.

The student wrote a letter to a local physician describing the symptoms__the physician recommended an endocrynologist__ saying the condition was not normal and there was reason for conern.

COUNT III

The following civil right has been violated: Constitution - God given right to procreation

Supporting Facts: [Include all facts you consider important. State the facts clearly, in your own words, and without citing legal authority or argument. Be certain you describe exactly what each defendant(by name) did to violate your rights].

Acts by authorities at Henderson and Clark County Detention Center along with acts at the Lakes Crossing Center hae resulted in the premeditated emasculation - castration of the plaintiff and is probably the most atrocious example of cruel and unusual punisment ever inlficted on man. When plaintiff compainted ot staff at Lakes Crossing Center he was told by the head nurse, David Crowfoot, that they could emasculate him faster if he wished. A Dr. Hahrt(?) examined the plaintiff and fraudulently claimed there was nothing wrong. Plaintiff then wrote to the director of Nevada Mental Health (Mr. Zadny). A Dr. Fitting was called to examine the plaintiff. By the symptoms given Dr. Fitting said there was definite need for concern. Dr. Fitting took blood and urine samples, after about a week the student was asked to give another urine sample___the inmates at L.C.C. were commenting that the student was given too much heavy metal and that his urine samples came back "dirty" Also, a private specialist recommended an endocrinologist. The Nevada Department of Mental Health was trying to cover up the slow castration of the plaintiff__The Nevada M.H. system is trying to cover up the emasculation by blaming it on disease or a so called natural health problem as opposed to the truth - involuntary emasculation - genocide - and slow death.

COUNT IV

The following civil right has been violated: Article VI. The accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial

Supporting Facts: [Include all facts you consider important. State the facts clearly, in your own words, and without citing legal authority or argument. Be certain you describe exactly what each defendant(by name) did to violate your rights].

Authorities of Clark County(Law Enforcements and Judicial) involved in premeditated activities preventing the plaintiff(accussed) from taking his case to trial. Plaintiff has been incarcerated for over 120 days; plaintiff, has of yet, been to a pre-trial hearing. Metro police at C.C.D.C.(modules 3F,2B,2C,5B) acting as agents for the Army and FBI, over the period of 11-18-92 to present, have attempted to coerce bizarre behavior from the plaintiff by utlizing psychological and chemical warefare. Authorities then exploited plaintiff's response to railroad him into being fraudulently diagnosed as mentally incompetent. Said diagnosis used as legal diversionary tactic to prevent plaintiff (accused) from defending himself in court. Actions by authorities constitute a gross obstruction of justice.

section 1983 - Form eff. 7/92

COUNT V

The following civil right has been violated: Article V. No person shall be deprived of life, liberty, or property withoud due process of law.

Supporting Facts: [Include all facts you consider important. State the facts clearly, in your own words, and without citing legal authority or argument. Be certain you describe exactly what each defendant(by name) did to violate your rights].

Mr. John Acurio, Col Gilbert Weden, Mr. Peter Meitner, and Ms. Teresa Kline of the U.S. Army Propulsion Directorate(U.S. Aviation System Command - St. Louis, MO) are responsible for utilizing the federal government(FBI, etc...) and agents of the federal government to control the plaintiff's life and cause intense physical, psychological, social, and monetary hardship. Since the plaintiff was terminated from a civilian engineering Army position in 1988 he has been treated as a "whistle-blower" and blackballed from the work force. All employment obtained since then has been short term and under the control of the federal government. Plaintiff was a victim of defamatory media coverage in 1989 by Army. Federal government's actions(including current entrapment) purposely resulted in the deprivation fo life, liberty, and property without due process of law.
