Ref: Making another record of federal judges blocking former federal agents from reporting corruption related to events of September 11, 2001, and continuing judicial conspiracy to obstruct justice.

To William Rehnquist:

The purpose of this letter is to continue making records of the continuing actions taken by federal judges under the supervision of the Justices of the U. S. Supreme Court, in blocking the reporting of criminal activities that I and a group of other former government agents have tried tot report to a federal judge under the federal crime reporting statute, Title 18 U.S.C. § 4. This letter puts you and the others named at the end of this letter on notice of these matters. The criminal activities cover several areas gravely affecting national security, and certain of these criminal activities created the conditions enabling 19 hijackers to seize four airliners and slaughter 3,000 victims. These were merely the latest and most extreme example of the relationship between the corruption that I have documented over the years whose continuation was made possible by the long pattern of felony cover-ups by federal judges. You have been made aware of this judicial misconduct for many years. For the record, the following are the latest examples of obstruction of justice by federal judges that not only shows contempt for the 3,000 killed in a single morning, contempt for previous victims of the corruption that I and a group of other government agents sought to report, and contempt for the subsequent victims of the criminal activities and the criminal complicity of cover-ups and obstruction of justice. Listed in reverse order are the following blocked attempts to report the criminal activities that continue to pose a great threat to the United States:  Post 9-11 lawsuit1 filed in the U.S. district court, Washington, D.C., seeking to report criminal activities enabling the 19 hijackers to seize four airliners. In clear violation of federal crime reporting statute, Judge Kennedy continued the long line of blocking the reports of criminal and subversive activities, and the long line of total due process violations, and dismissed the filing shortly after it was filed and before any defendants could be served. The dismissal sought support in the 1991 order by Judge Stanley Sporkin permanently terminating my equal protection right to file papers in federal courts.

1 U.S. District Court, District of Columbia, 02cv01172, filed June 12, 2002. Reports Of Criminal Activities Involving 9-11 and Complicity By Federal Judges 1  Complicity by District of Columbia appellate judges2 in continuing to block the reports and continuing the massive due process violations that were part of the obstruction of justice crimes. I filed a timely notice of appeal3 and prepared to file an appeal brief that raised multiple issues including (a) I filed a timely notice of appeal of this dismissal and appellate judges Ginsburg, Sentelle and Randolph issued an order on January 16, 2003 dismissing the appeal, claiming that a 1991 order by former U.S. district judge (and former CIA legal counsel) Stanley Sporkin terminated my due process and equal protection right to file any papers in the federal courts. That order enlarged on Ninth Circuit district and appellate orders also terminating my right to federal court access. The effect, and surely the intent, of these orders were to block me from reporting the criminal activities to a federal judges as required to be reported by the federal crime reporting statute, 18 U.S.C. § 4. In this way the statutory and constitutional right to appeal remedies were denied to me.  My petition for rehearing en banc was stamped “received” on January 27, 2003. Because of the gravity of the judicial corruption and its effect upon national security, including the events of September 11, 2001, it is expected that the District of Columbia appellate judges will continue the cover-up of the matters gravely affecting the United States and its people.  Post 9-11 lawsuit submitted to the U.S. district court, New York City, seeking to have the court receive evidence of corruption that in one area, and on a single morning, enabled 19 hijackers to seize four airliners and kill 3,000 people.  Pre 9-11 lawsuit filed in Reno, Nevada.1 That lawsuit stated and sought to provide data and evidence relating to ongoing corruption that I and a group of other former and present government agents sought to report to a federal court under the federal crime-reporting statute, Title 18 U.S.C. § 4. That lawsuit was That lawsuit also exercised federal defenses against the long series of corruption, unlawful, and unconstitutional actions that were parallel efforts taken to halt our exposure activities of these corrupt and criminal activities that were continuing to inflict devastating harm upon major national interests, including national security, and the lives and the freedom of countless numbers of men and women. It’s dismissal, as in the long line of other dismissals, violated the federal crime reporting statute, violated the statutes relating to obstruction of justice,4 retaliated against me through financial sanctions, and violated multiple due process rights guaranteed by the laws and Constitution of the United States.  Lawsuits filed in the federal courts in the late 1970s and early 1980s5 seeking to report the

2 District of Columbia appellate judges blocking the reports were Chief judge Ginsburg, Sentelle, and Randolph. 3 District of Columbia appeal number 02-5240. 4 Title 18 U.S.C. § 2. Principals. (a) Whoever commits an offense against the United States or aids, abets, counsels, commands, induces or procures its commission, is punishable as a principal. (b) Whoever willfully causes an act to be done which if directly performed by him or another would be an offense against the United States, is punishable as a principal. Title 18 U.S.C. § 3. Accessory after the fact. Whoever, knowing that an offense against the United States had been committed, receives, relieves, comforts or assists the offender in order to hinder or prevent his apprehension, trial or punishment, is an accessory after the fact. Title 18 U.S.C. § 4. Misprision of felony. Whoever, having knowledge of the actual commission of a felony cognizable by a court of the United States, conceals and does not as soon as possible make known the same to some judge or other person in civil or military authority under the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both. 5 Stich v.

These were filed by me after I had documented deep-seated corruption in these offices after given the assignment to correct the conditions responsible for the worst series of airline crashes in the nation’s history. This was the start of the judicial obstruction of justice that made possible the continuation of the deep-seated federal crimes and enabled the continuation of many airline crashes and deaths arising from this misconduct. The success of 19 hijackers seizing four airliners—when the known danger and preventative measures were known for years and not acted upon—were made possible by the judicial obstruction of justice. This obstruction of justice would later be expanded with felony retaliation against me,6 a former federal agent and witness, for attempting to report and halt these criminal activities.  Additional lawsuits filed from 1986 to the present date, seeking to report criminal activities in multiple areas, implicating people in key government positions. This information and documentation was obtained partly by my own personal experiences in trying to expose the corruption, and partly from the several dozen government agents and other insiders who gravitated to me over the years and who sought to report the federal crimes that they had discovered during their official duties. As in every other attempt to report these criminal and even subversive activities, federal district and appellate judges, initially in the Ninth Circuit, and then expanding into other circuits, and including the Justices of the U.S. Supreme Court, blocked every attempt to report these criminal activities.  o Post 9-11 lawsuit* submitted to district court at New York City, seeking to report the criminal activities that led to the slaughter of 3,000 people on 9-11. o Complicity of U.S. Supreme Court Justices in these continuing obstruction of justice and massive civil rights violations. Starting in the late 1970s, Supreme Court justices knew that my attempts to report the criminal activities were being blocked. I filed, and I submitted for filing numerous petitions that were refused on sham arguments, which Supreme Court justices were required to receive.

This letter is sent to you, and everyone listed at the end, to reveal one segment of the documented corruption that enabled 19 hijackers to seize four airliners on September 11, 2001 (and this is only one- day’s instance of the consequences that effected aviation disasters and other areas of national security). This letter focuses on the documented hardcore corruption by federal judges that has not only corrupted the federal courts but played a key role in the continuation of corruption that, in one instance and in one area of national security, enabled 19 hijackers to seize four airliners on September 111, 2001. My unusual background provided the opportunity to discover these criminal activities, my credibility, and the credibility of my charges.2 The follow are the ongoing highlights of judicial corruption that goes from Ninth Circuit courts to the U.S. Supreme Court.

 Judicial obstruction of justice. I sought to report to federal judges, as required by the clear wording of the federal crime reporting statute,3 the criminal activities4 that I initially discovered as a federal aviation safety agent. This culture of corruption made possible many airline disasters, including the seizure of four airliners by 19 hijackers on September 11, 2001. In every instance, federal district and appellate judges, and Supreme Court Justices, refused to receive this information and evidence, despite their requirement to do so as part of their administrative duties and as required by federal criminal statutes. These obstruction of justice judicial acts are crimes under Title 18 U.S.C. §§ 2, 3, 4. The first group of lawsuits5 were filed in the 1970s and 1980s charging criminal activities in the FAA and NTSB board.  Expanding discovery of other areas of corruption in government offices. My several thousand radio and television appearances and books6 provided publicity that caused over the past 15 years several dozen other government agents to provide me with information and documentation on the criminal activities that they discovered of people in key government 4 Reports Of Criminal Activities Involving 9-11 and Complicity By Federal Judges positions. Among the many areas of criminal activities that they discovered included drug smuggling by people acting under CIA and other government positions; rampant corruption in the bankruptcy courts; funding of secret bank accounts of key government figures in covert CIA operations; FBI protection of drug smugglers associated with CIA operations; and much more. (This information, with affidavits and some government documentation, came from former and present government agents and former heads of secret CIA operations.) In an attempt to circumvent the widespread cover-ups and inform the public of these crimes originating in government, and based upon the information and documentation provided to me, I published one of more expanded editions of the following books: Unfriendly Skies, Defrauding America, Drugging America, Terrorism Against America, Lawyers and Judges—American Trojan Horses, and Disavow.  Expanding judicial obstruction of justice. Starting in 1987 and continuing to this date, federal judges continued to block the reporting of these federal crimes that I and my sources sought to report. Acting in unison—and with the approval of the Justices of the U.S. Supreme Court. The tactics they used included: o Promptly dismissing the court filings, often without a hearing, openly violating numerous federal laws, rules of court, Supreme Court decisions, and constitutional rights. o Issuing unlawful and unconstitutional orders7 terminating for the remainder of my life the right to file any papers in the district and appellate courts. o Reversing the legal definition of frivolous on the filings that were a combination of attempting to report federal crimes to a federal judge and exercising federal defenses* to halt great personal and financial harm arising from violations of federally protected rights initially perpetrated by a CIA front law firm.  Federal retaliation against former federal aviation safety agent and witness. As I was discovering other areas of corruption—some of which was subversive to the United States—I tried to report these matters to a federal judge. These were done after court orders unlawfully terminated my right to file any papers in federal court. (Not only were these orders unlawful and unconstitutional, but also their use in blocking my reports were criminal acts.8) I was then charged with criminal contempt of court and a two-year prison sentence was sought (for reporting criminal activities affecting national security, some of which were continuing to adversely affect the aviation sector—such as the conditions that enabled 19 hijackers to seize four airliners and kill 3,000 people on 9-11). Federal judges denied me a jury trial and at the age of 70 I was sent to federal prison, spending eight weeks in solitary confinement. While in prison, orders were rendered without a hearing, without notice, and without legal support, seizing and liquidation the $10 million in assets that funded my attempts to expose the criminal and subversive activities that I and a group of other government agents had discovered during our official duties.  Terminating every federal defense against record-setting violations of federally protected rights. It became absolutely necessary to combine the obstruction of justice, which had by now greatly escalated, with total denial of every federal remedy.9 Typical were the following combination judicial obstruction of justice with judicial civil rights violations: o Lawsuit filed in Reno, Nevada,10 seeking to report the criminal activities that would be implicated in the events of September 11, 2001, and seeking relief before the running of the statute of limitations. Lawsuit dismissed before discovery and before defendants answered complaint. This dismissal violated the federal crime reporting statute (18 U.S.C. § 4) and the statutes, constitutional protections, rules of court, and Supreme Court case law preventing the dismissal. o Post 9-11 lawsuit* seeking to report criminal activities enabling the 19 hijackers to Reports Of Criminal Activities Involving 9-11 and Complicity By Federal Judges 5 seize four airliners, filed in Washington, D.C. In clear violation of federal crime reporting statute, Judge Kennedy continued the long line of judicial obstruction of justice, and the long line of total due process violations, and dismissed the filing shortly after it was filed and before any defendants could be served. The dismissal sought support in the 1991 order by Judge Stanley Sporkin permanently terminating my equal protection right to file papers in federal courts. I filed a timely notice of appeal of this dismissal and appellate judges Ginsburg, Sentelle and Randolph issued an order dismissing the appeal, claiming I lost my legal and constitutional right to appeal remedies. o Post 9-11 lawsuit* submitted to district court at New York City, seeking to report the criminal activities that led to the slaughter of 3,000 people on 9-11. o Complicity of U.S. Supreme Court Justices in these continuing obstruction of justice and massive civil rights violations. Starting in the late 1970s, Supreme Court justices knew that my attempts to report the criminal activities were being blocked. I filed, and I submitted for filing numerous petitions that were refused on sham arguments, which Supreme Court justices were required to receive. All federal judges and federal officers are required to received information on federal crimes under 18 U.S.C. § 4. (There have been hundreds of men and women sentenced to federal prison under that statute for failure to report such minor offenses as one-sided telephone conversations.) o Also implicated in the criminal cover-ups that made possible great harm upon national defenses, and made possible such consequences as the 3,000 deaths on 9-11, were members of Congress who were repeatedly advised of the criminal and even subversive activities and who refused to receive the information; Justice Department personnel whose 40 years of cover-ups and retaliation were criminal acts with far graver effects upon the Unite States than the offenses that put most people in federal prison; o The present post 9-11 cover-up of this information insures, as shown by a 40-year record, that the cover-ups will insure the continuation of the culture of corruption and resulting tragedies and harm to national security. o Consequences of converting the federal courts into a documented racketeering enterprise: o Years of major aviation disasters, as detailed in the books I have written, Unfriendly Skies. o Years of continuing criminal activities, including drug smuggling into the United States by people acting under government positions, as detailed in Defrauding America and Drugging America. o

 Deep-seated culture of hardcore corruption within the government’s aviation safety offices that played key roles in a series of fatal airline crashes, including 40 years of fatal hijackings that federal aviation safety agents had reported preventative measures. Why the federal government’s aviation safety responsibilities were blocked from being carried out is the key here.

Reports Of Criminal Activities Involving 9-11 and Complicity By Federal Judges 7 1 Reno lawsuit filed in 2000, Nr. 2 I was a Navy patrol plane commander and pilot instructor in World War II. I was an airline captain for many years after that war. I joined the FAA as a federal aviation safety agent and was eventually given the assignment to correct the conditions causing the worst series of aviation disasters in the nation’s history. The deep-seated corruption that I discovered in the FAA caused me to act as an independent prosecutor for six months, during which I forced into the hearing records the testimony of many people and added considerably more documentation. I began obtaining evidence of cover-ups by NTSB board members, which continued the corruption and made possible continuation of the fraud-related air disasters. Since about 1985, other former and present government agents started providing me information and evidence of corruption and criminal activities in other government offices that were inflicting great harm upon national security. As a private citizen I had acquired over $10 million in real estate, which I then used to fund my attempts to expose the criminal and subversive activities that I and a group of other former government agents had discovered. 3 Title 18 U.S.C. § 4. Misprision of felony. Whoever, having knowledge of the actual commission of a felony cognizable by a court of the United States, conceals and does not as soon as possible make known the same to some judge or other person in civil or military authority under the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both. 4 Among the deeply entrenched documented criminal activities within the FAA were (a) cover-up of major air safety violations and criminal acts involving major air disasters at a politically powerful airline; (b) repeated refusal to take legally required corrective actions when reported by the professional federal air safety inspectors; (c) felony destruction of inspector reports revealing major air safety problems, air safety violations, and criminal falsification of records, while the same problems were resulting in a 20-year-long period of air disasters; (d) threats to inspectors not to file reports of these problems; (e) retaliation against federal air safety inspectors when they continued to file reports of major safety problems and violations, perpetrated while the same problems were resulting in a series of fatal airline crashes. And much more. 5 Stich v. United States, et al., 554 F.2d 1070 (9th Cir.)

Authoring and publishing these books were a non-profit operation funded by my $10 million in real estate assets. 7 The injunctive orders violated each of the four legal requirements for their issuance, and their requirement were blatantly unlawful, unconstitutional, and intended to block the reporting of the criminal and subversive activities and deprive me of the defenses against the sham lawsuit filed by the CIA-front law firm of Friedman, Sloan and Ross (San Francisco), who was carrying out the scheme originating in some powerful government office, believed to be somewhere in the federal judiciary. 8 Title 18 U.S.C. §§ 2, 3, 4. 9 Federal remedies available for the multiple violations of federally protected rights included the Civil Rights Act, Declaratory Judgment Act, Bivens, Civil RICO, FTCA, among others. 10 Reno lawsuit filed in 2000, Nr.
