Criminal statutes violated in schemes to halt exposure activities.

<body> Criminal Statutes Violated by the Corruption, The Cover-Ups, and Silencing Retaliation The following are among the federal criminal statutes that were involved in the obstruction of justice and retaliation seeking to prevent the continued exposure of corruption related to major harm to the nation and the people. These criminal violations were involved in the multiple and parallel efforts during the past 25 years that involved Department of Justice personnel, federal judges, lawyers and law firms, to halt the exposure activities by former federal agent Rodney Stich. 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. Note: The legislative intent to punish as a principal not only one who directly commits an offense and one who "aids, abets, counsels, commands, induces or procures" another to commit an offense, but also anyone who causes the doing of an act which if done by him directly would render him guilty of an offense against the United States. Case law decisions: Rothenburg v. United States, 1918, 38 S.Ct. 18, 245 U.S. 480, 62 L.Ed. 414, and United States v. Giles, 1937, 57 S.Ct. 340, 300 U.S. 41, 81 L.Ed. 493. [Aiding and abetting those committing the offenses that a former federal agent sought to report including federal judges, California judges, federal prosecutors, and cooperating lawyers.] 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. [Assisting those engaged in felonies were federal judges, federal prosecutors and cooperating lawyers.] 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 not more than $500 or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.” [An endless number of people knew of the felonies, and not only concealed their knowledge of it, but some, as with federal judges, federal prosecutors, and cooperating lawyers, engaged in fraudulent conduct against the person seeking to make the reports.] Title 18 U.S.C. § 34. Penalty when death results. Whoever is convicted of any crime prohibited by this chapter, which has resulted in the death of any person, shall be subject also to the death penalty or to imprisonment. [Misconduct that resulted in the deaths, or those who covered up for the misconduct, such as those associated with an airline disaster.] Title 18 U.S.C. § 35. A party who conveys false information, knowing it to be false, knowing an attempt or alleged attempt being made that would be a crime under Chapter 97 or 111, which pertain to aircraft and motor vehicles. [Among the guilty in this respect were the key people who repeatedly falsified government required records [at United Airlines] to falsely show that major safety requirements had been performed when in fact they were not. Making this crime more serious, they were repeated time and time again while fatal airline disasters were occurring due to the refusal to perform the required safety actions Title 18 U.S.C. § 111. Impeding certain officers or employees. Whoever ... intimidates, or interferes with any person ... while engaged in ... the performance of his official duties shall be fined ... or imprisoned ... [These federal offenses repeatedly occurred in the government's aviation safety offices−and throughout government.] Title 18 U.S.C. § 153. Embezzlement by trustee or officer. Whoever knowingly and fraudulently appropriates to his own use, embezzles, spends, or transfers any property or secretes or destroys any document belonging to the estate of a debtor which came into his charge as trustee ... shall be fined ... or imprisoned ... or both. Despite the embezzlement of over one million dollars, possibly the nation's worst single-case Chapter 11 trustee embezzlement, Justice Department officials refuse to investigate; move to dismiss every action filed by Stich seeking injunctive relief from the embezzlement; and federal judges unlawfully and unconstitutional dismiss every action addressing the embezzlement. The reason: Justice Department officials and federal judges misused the ongoing Chapter 11 corruption against Stich, to carry out the scheme commenced with the sham California action, continuing the pattern of civil, constitutional and criminal violations. [This crime was committed by U.S. Department of Justice trustee, Charles Duck, who corruptly embezzled funds from such people as former government agent Rodney Stich when he was forced to seek relief from the overwhelming schemes seeking to halt his exposure activities.] Title 18 U.S.C. § 241. Conspiracy against rights of citizens. If two or more persons conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any citizen in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States, or because of his having so exercised the same; ... They shall be fined ... or imprisoned ... or … [Multiple schemes that meet the definition of a conspiracy to halt the exposure of high-level corruption involved massive and repeated violations of civil rights by over 50 lawyers and law firms, over a dozen California judges, over 50 federal judges, and an unknown number of personnel from the U.S. Department of Justice.] Title 18 U.S.C. § 242. Deprivation of rights under color of law. Whoever, under color of any law, statute, ordinance, regulation, or custom, willfully subjects any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured or protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States, or to different punishment, pains, or penalties, on account of such person being an alien, or by reason of his color, or race, than are prescribed for the punishment of citizens, shall b fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both. [That crime was repeatedly perpetrated by California judges, federal judges, Department of Justice personnel, and lawyers, in parallel schemes to halt a former federal agent from exposing high-level corruption.] Title 18 U.S.C. 245((b)(1)(B). Federally protected activities. (b) Whoever, whether or not acting under color of law, by force or threat of force willfully injures, intimidates or interferes with, or attempts to injure, intimidate or interfere with—(1) any person because he is or has been, or in order to intimidate such person or any other person or any class of persons from—(B) participating in or enjoying any benefit, service, privilege, program, facility, or activity provided or administered by the United States. (C) applying for or enjoying employment, or any perquisite thereof, by any agency of the United States. [Involved the repeated corrupt deprivation of the legal and constitutional rights of former federal agent Rodney Stich as part of multiple and parallel schemes to halt his exposure of high-level corruption.] Title 18 U.S.C. § 371. Conspiracy to commit offense or to defraud United States. If two or more persons conspire either to commit any offense against the United States, or to defraud the United States, or any agency thereof, in any manner or for any purpose, and one or more of such persons do any act to effect the object of the conspiracy, each shall be fined ... or imprisoned ...PRIVATE [Conspiracy to commit an offense or to defraud the United States includes the acts by federal officials using their office to engage in criminal activities; that decreases the effectiveness and respect for such agencies. Violated by officials in the FAA, NTSB, Transportation Department, Justice Department officials; federal judges; and others. Case law relating to section 1001 defines defrauding the United States as doing any act which decreases its effectiveness, causing the agency to wrongfully act or not act on such writings or acts, or decreases the public confidence in government offices.] Title 18 U.S.C. § 1341. Frauds and swindles. Whoever, having devised or intending to devise any scheme or artifice to defraud, or for obtaining money or property by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises, .... for the purpose of executing such scheme or artifice or attempting so to do, places in any post office or authorized depository for mail matter, any matter or thing whatever to be sent or delivered by the Postal Service, or takes or receives therefrom, any such matter or thing, or knowingly causes to be delivered by mail according to the direction thereon, or at the place at which it is directed to be delivered by the person to whom it is addressed, any such matter or thing, shall be fined ... or imprisoned .... or both. [This felony could possibly be argued as it related to the corrupt seizure and looting of the $10 million in assets from former federal agent Rodney Stich as part of the scheme to halt his exposure activities.] Title 18 U.S.C. § 1343. Fraud by wire, radio, or television. Whoever, having devised or intending to devise any scheme or artifice to defraud, or for obtaining money or property by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises, transmits or causes to be transmitted by means of wire, radio, or television communication in interstate or foreign commerce, any writings, signs, signals, pictures, or sounds for the purpose of executing such scheme or artifice, shall be fined not more than $1,000 or imprisoned … [This felony could arise from the repeated use of telephones and fax machines by lawyers and judges in the 25 years of continuous schemes seeking to halt his exposure of high-level corruption.] Title 18 USC § 1503. Influencing or injuring officer or juror generally. (a) Whoever corruptly, or by threats or force, or by any threatening letter or communication, endeavors to influence, intimidate, or impede any grand or petit juror, or officer in or of any court of the United States, ... on account of the performance of his official duties, or corruptly or by threats or force, or by any threatening letter or communication, influences, obstructs, or impedes, or endeavors to influence, obstruct, or impede, the due administration of justice, shall be punished as provided in subsection (b). [This statute applies to the harm inflicted upon federal agent Rodney Stich and the many others who sought to fight the corruption in government, and also applies to former federal agents seeking to expose the corruption while private citizens.] Title 18 U.S.C. § 1505. Whoever corruptly ... influences, obstructs, or impedes or endeavors to influence, obstruct, or impede the due the proper administration of the law under which any pending proceeding is being had before any department or agency of the United States ... shall be fined not more than $5,000 or imprisoned not more than five years, or both. Title 18 U.S.C. § 1505 applies to anyone who corruptly attempts by threats or force, or by any threatening letter or communication, influence, obstruct, or impede the due and proper administration of the law under which any pending proceeding is being had before any department or agency of the United States. They do not have to succeed to have committed a federal crime; the attempt or scheme (conspire) to do so is criminal. [This felony repeatedly occurred as multiple schemes were used seeking to halt the exposure of high-level corruption by former federal agent Rodney Stich.] Title 18 USC § 1510. Obstruction of criminal investigations. (a) Whoever willfully endeavors by means of bribery to obstruct, delay, or prevent the communication of information relating to a violation of any criminal statute of the United States by any person to a criminal investigator shall be fined under this title, or imprisoned not more than five years, or both. [The repeated occurrence of this felony involved federal judges, Department of Justice employees, and cooperating lawyers and law firms.] 18 USC § 1512. Tampering with a witness, victim, or an informant. (b) Whoever knowingly uses intimidation or physical force, threatens, or corruptly persuades another person, or attempts to do so, or engages in misleading conduct toward another person, with intent to–(3) hinder, delay, or prevent the communication to a law enforcement officer or judge of the United States of information relating to the commission or possible commission of a Federal offense ... shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both. (c) Whoever intentionally harasses another person and thereby hinders, delays, prevents, or dissuades any person from–(2) reporting to a law enforcement officer or judge of the United States the commission or possible commission of a Federal offense. [This crime was repeatedly perpetrated by federal judges, employees of the U.S. Department of Justice, and assisted by lawyers and California judges.] Title 18 U.S.C. § 1513. Retaliating against a witness, victim, or an informant. (b) Whoever knowingly engages in any conduct and thereby causes bodily injury to another person or damages the tangible property of another person, or threatens to do so, with intent to retaliate against any person for──(1) the attendance of a witness or party at an official proceeding, or any testimony given or any record, document, or other object produced by a witness in an official proceeding; or (2) any information relating to the commission or possible commission of a Federal offense ... [This felony involved the criminal contempt of court charges by federal judges and Department of Justice prosecutors for having attempted to report criminal activities of people in key government positions. That felony was compounded by the fact that the former federal agent, or anyone, knowing of a federal crime, had to report such felony to a federal judge or other federal officer. By blocking those reports, the federal prosecutor (David Levi, Sacramento) and federal judges were committing felonies related to obstruction of justice.] Title 18 U.S.C. § 1514. Civil action to restrain harassment of a victim or witness. (a)(1) A United States district court, upon application of the attorney for the government, shall issue a temporary restraining order prohibiting harassment of a victim or witness in a Federal criminal \case if the court finds, from specific facts shown by affidavit or by verified complaint, that there are reasonable grounds to believe that harassment of an identified victim or witness in a Federal criminal case exists or that such order is necessary to prevent and restrain an offense under section 1512 of this title, other than an offense consisting of misleading conduct, or under section 1513 of this title.

[That violation occurred numerous times (and is common in government departments) while Rodney Stich was a key federal airline safety inspector, and then as other people took various actions against him to halt his exposure of the corrupt activities resulting in a continuing series of airline disasters.] Racketeering Enterprise Activities Title 42 USC ' 1961.

Prohibited Activities.
