Bøker av Kevin Thompson

There are very few things more frightening than to know that no matter how many facts must be ignored and laws must be defied to rule against me, the judges in Massachusetts will do just that to deny me justice as a vocal critic of the courts. While reading this book, keep in mind that the judges exposed as corrupt in this book are not corrupt because they ruled against me, which is what the racketeers working in the Massachusetts court system would like you to believe to discredit me. They are corrupt because they had to conspire among themselves to defy the law, defy their code of conduct, and commit fraud to rule against me. Since the state of Massachusetts has illegally denied to me my Seventh Amendment right to plead my cases before a jury of my peers and since every state and federal agency that allegedly exists to hold corrupt public officials accountable has negligently failed to perform this duty; I am asking that you, the readers, be my jury.
