Brief Introduction to Major Complex Scandal Former federal agent Rodney Stich and his coalition of other former government agents and insiders had sought to report the corrupt activities in the government's aviation safety offices related to a series of specific airline disasters, and also criminal activities in other areas of overt and covert government activities. The authority for doing this was the federal crime reporting statute and the statute that permits any citizen to seek a court order requiring a federal official to perform a mandatory duty and halt unlawful conduct. In response to these efforts, large numbers of federal judges, Department of Justice personnel, and over 50 lawyers and law firms embarked on multiple schemes to block the reports of the high-level corruption and silence the former federal agent acting as a whistleblower to expose misconduct resulting in major harm, many deaths, and a series of catastrophic events. Click here for more introductory information. In combination, they inflicted great harm through civil, constitutional, criminal, and human rights violations upon a former federal agent, and made possible the continuation of the prior consequences of corruption, cover-ups, and retaliations, some of which are shown below. The need to coordinate these many parallel efforts to block the reporting of very serious high-level corruption, and protect the participants, from 1982 to 2005 as they engaged in conspiracies involving massive and repeated civil, constitutional, and human rights violations, and criminal obstruction of justice and criminal retaliation against a former federal agent and witness, strongly suggests that a powerful group in the federal government was involved. The consequences of their enabling conduct is shown below. Federal Judges Blocked Lawsuit Seeking to Report Corruption That Enabled 9/11 to Occur Several months after the hijackings of four airliners on September 11, 2001, and after determining the areas of corruption that made for the easy hijackings, former federal agent Rodney Stich again sought to report the conditions, the corruption, and enablers, responsible for the conditions that made it possible for 19 terrorists to so easily hijack four airliners. The federal action was received by the federal courts in New York City (August 8, 2002) and stamped "received," instead of the required "filed." (MS Word) (Adobe PDF) That lawsuit: Charged, and offered to produce evidence obtained initially as a key government airline safety expert, about the deep-seated and repeatedly covered up corruption in the government's aviation safety offices that enabled to occur a long line of preventable and forewarned airline disasters, of which the 9/11 hijackings were simply one more in ma long line of fraud-related aviation disasters. The misconduct by employees in the U.S. Department of Justice, including the cover-up of advance information obtained from a mole inside the most infamous al Qaeda cell. The misconduct by Justice Department employees, including the obstruction of justice retaliation against a former key federal aviation safety inspector, seeking to silence him, which included the corrupt seizur5e and liquidation of the assets that funded his attempts to expose the endemic corruption. The federal judges who repeatedly blocked the former federal agent fro5m reporting the corruption, combing that repeated obstruction of justice with retaliatory felonies. The lawyers who engaged in a 19 year continuous pattern of sham lawsuits against the former government agent in schemes parallel to the obstruction of justice by federal judges, acting in a conspiracy and as a racketeering enterprise with the goal of covering up for high-level corruption. Chief judge Michael Mukasey blocked the attempt to report the lawsuit. Probable reason for blocking the filing: the lawsuit reported: The years of aviation disasters made possible by the corruption of people in the government's aviation safety offices. The years of cover-ups by people in control of government offices that had a responsibility to receive evidence of the corruption. The years of repeated cover-ups by federal judges, whose obstruction of justice actions made possible the string of catastrophic aviation disasters. The felony retaliation against the former government aviation safety expert in an effort to prevent the corruption from being known. The conspiracy and racketeering enterprise focused on blocking this information from being known that involved dozens of federal judges and dozens of lawyers. Notifying Supreme Justices of the Latest Judicial Block to Reporting Corrupt Activities Related to Major National Events In an attempt to force Mukasey to file the lawsuit, former federal agent Rodney Stich sent letters sent to Chief Justice William Rehnquist and each of the other Supreme Court Justices, advising them of the latest judicial obstruction of justice tactic that was occurring in areas for which they had supervisory responsibilities. (MS Word) (Adobe PDF) After sending that letter, Mukasey then filed the lawsuit on September 22, 2004, that by law he should have allowed to be filed 13 months earlier. Within hours of filing that lawsuit, an order by judge Michael B. Mukasey dismissed it. The Supreme Court Justices can be expected to have known of that unlawful dismissal and latest judicial obstruction of justice. That dismissal: Constituted an obstruction of justice felony under the obstruction of justice statutes. Title 18 U.S.C. § 4 requires that anyone who knows of a federal crime must−to avoid being guilty of an obstruction of justice crime−report the knowledge to any federal judge, or other federal official. A federal judge is then required to receive that information as part of the judge's mandatory administrative duties. To block such report is a felony. Violated basic due process rights guaranteed under the laws and constitution of the United States. As it related to due process rights, the dismissal violated: The requirement for a federal judge to allow a lawsuit that states one or more federal causes of actions to be heard, as part of the judge's duties and for the judge was being paid. The right to a notice of hearing, and a hearing, to object to any planned dismissal. And upon presentation of information and evidence that a federal cause of action was stated, the dismissal was barred. Filing Notice of Appeal Stich filed a notice of appeal on October 14, 2003, of that dismissal, as provided by law. (MS Word) (Adobe PDF). Stich then filed a timely opening brief to the Court of Appeals, January 3, 2004. That brief provided information to the three-judge appellate panel of the serious corruption (MS Word) (Adobe PDF) Stich appeared before the court of appeals and presented oral argument in support of the brief. By that time, the situation had become so dire, with the documented criminal complicity of dozens of federal judges, whose misconduct played key7 roles in the conditions that enabled terrorists to hijack four airliners and kill nearly 3,000 people within a matter of hours. As with every other court of appeals, the three judges, Jose A. Cabranes, Chester J. Straub, and Richard C. Wesley. signed an order (August 25, 2004) dismissing the appeal. (Adobe PDF) That order continued in effect the long existing corruption, insuring that the events of 9/11 would be followed by more disasters made possible by the cover-ups. Stich then filed a petition for all the judges, en banc, to consider the appeal. That put every other federal judge in that circuit on notice of the criminal activities, the criminal cover-ups, that played a key roles in the conditions leading to the 9/11 hijackings and 3,000 deaths. They joined the conspiracy of judicial cover-ups. To make additional record that the Justices of the U.S. Supreme Court knew of the underlying criminal activities and the obstruction of justice tactics by federal judges over whom they had supervisory responsibilities, Stich sent letters to Chief Justice William Rehnquist with copies to the other justices.

(Adobe PDF) Petition for rehearing en banc, that put every appellate judge in the entire district Second Circuit on notice of the underlying criminal activities and the pattern of felony obstruction of justice and felony civil rights violations perpetrated to accomplish the obstruction of justice, September 7, 2004, and filed on September 13, 2004. (MS Word) (Adobe PDF) Petition sent to U.S. Supreme Court, January 5, 2005, making each of the Justices aware of these serious matters. No response. (MS Word) (Adobe PDF) Stich sent a copy of filings to U.S. Solicitor General, as required by rules of court. January 5, 2005. (MS Word) (Adobe PDF) the wife of former Solicitor General. Ironically, or tragically, Solicitor General from June 2001 to July 2004 was Theodore B. Olson−whose wife was on one of the planes being hijacked in which the occupants were brutally killed. He obviously knew−prior to 9/11−of the many court filings by former federal agent Rodney Stich, about the criminal conditions that would play a major role in his wife's death. If he had responded as morally and legally required, it is highly possibly that his wife−and nearly 3,000 other victims−would not have been killed. Since he played a role in not only his wife's death but of the others, he was, properly, reminded of this in a letter dated April 13, 2004. (MS Word) (Adobe PDF) Federal Judges and Supreme Court Justices Protected the Continuing Corrupt Activities That Made 9/11 Possible Among the criminal activities that the legal filings brought to the attention of every federal judge in the Second Circuit, including New York, were the following: Culture of corruption by key people in the government's aviation safety offices which Stich discovered after being given the assignment to correct the conditions responsible for the worst series of airline disasters in the nation's history. Sampling of the aviation disasters and deaths resulting from the corruption. Corruption, people, and groups, whose misconduct created or continued the conditions that made it easy for 19 terrorists to hijack four airliners on September 11, 2001, and kill nearly 3,000 people. Corrupt conduct by federal judges whose obstruction-of-justice tactics parallel the similar conduct of the Friedman lawyers. Involvement of lawyers with the U.S. Department of Justice, involved in murders and with multiple roles in misconduct responsible for the hijackings of four airliners on September 11, 2001. They then became, as judges before them, enablers of great and catastrophic events inflicted upon the American people and upon the United States. Years of Complicity by Supreme Court Justices From the 1970s to 2005, Justices of the U.S. Supreme Court knew of these matters, and covered up for them, despite the moral and legal responsibilities under the crime reporting statutes, and they responsibilities to supervise the federal judges of the United States. One of many letters and petitions received by the Justices of the U.S. Supreme Court was the letter to Supreme Court Justice Rehnquist, dated January 2, 2001, reporting corruption that several months later enabled to occur the worst terrorist attacks in the nation's history.

Corruption-Enabled Events That Motivated The Former Government-Agent Whistleblower— And Those That Continued As a result of the widespread corruption in overt and covert government operations, the systemic cover-ups that treat high-level corruption as the "third-rail," and the retaliation against whistleblowers, great American tragedies have repeatedly occurred, and will continue to occur. Harm to the American public in non-violent areas. Harm to people of other countries. Harm to the few people in the United States fighting the high-level corruption in a meaningful manner. Harm in general. Sampling of Early Consequences TWA Flight 800 U.S. Embassy Bombings 9/11 Easily-Preventable Multiple Hijackings These few examples of the horrors associated with airline disasters enabled to occur by documented corruption withheld from the American people. The standard culture of cover-ups in the United States enabled the corruption, cover-ups, to mutate into different areas. In the aviation area, although the continuing series of airline disasters eventually came to a halt for other reasons, the culture continued, and enabled to occur a number of easily preventable airline disasters. The inbred culture created the conditions that enabled four groups of terrorists to easily hijack four airliners within a few hours of each other and kill nearly 3,000 people. One of Over 200 Victims Choosing This Way to Die— Made Possible by Many Enablers in United States Consequences of Corruption, Cover-Ups, And Retaliation Felonies Not Limited to Aviation There were many other forms of victims from the systemic high-level corruption. These included for instance victims of the: Department of Justice prosecutorial misconduct, people being falsely charges with crimes in order to improve the prosecutors' career. The explosion of violent crime related to drug smuggling into the United States, in which CIA assets were major players. Series of financial frauds appearing every few years, with the latest housing and financial implosions surfacing in 2008. Seizure of assets from innocent people. And many other forms. These offenses are described in the books written by insiders. Corruption of the Type Described at this site does not occur in a vacuum. High-level corruption in one area is simply one tentacle of a widespread culture of corruption. And the consequences of that corruption−and the endemic cover-ups−have consequences in other areas. The culture of corruption affects the people and the nation in many other ways, That includes the latest series of financial frauds that has occurred in the housing and financial sectors. Also, the effect of the endemic corruption and endemic cover-ups−major parts of the culture in the United States−that enablers successful terrorist attacks upon U.S. interests. Harm to People Overseas From Culture Of High-Level Corruption and Lies in the United States In addition to the decades of harm resulting from the systemic corruption of key people and groups in the U.S. government, affecting aviation safety, financial, human rights, in the United States, there is the harm from outside sources brought about by the actions of U.S. politicians affecting people in other countries—such as the history of invading and killing foreigners—there are the successful "terrorist" attacks made possible by high-level corruption, and then there are the foreigners who are also victims from the same high-level corruption that adversely affects the American, but in a different form. Remains of a girl—about the age of the 9-year-old Killed in Tucson in January 2011. In criminal law, people are accomplices, and guilty, if they know of a criminal act and fail to report it to proper authorities and also to take efforts within their capability to halt their continuation. And there are endless numbers of accomplices that are complicit in these crimes and enablers of the consequences. Suggestion to people outside the United States. Become familiar with the documented systemic corruption in the United States and show the outrage lacking of people in the United States, and: Help expose the endemic corruption that seem to be acceptable to the American people, and maybe wake them up. Help to protect yourselves against the decades of ham inflicted upon people of other countries by the actions of U.S. politicians—supported by much of the American public. Examples: Serial lying by U.S. politicians to use as a pretense to invade Iraq and Afghanistan, killing tens of thousands of innocent people. U.S. politicians shifting enabling blame from their own corrupt actions that encouraged and enabled four groups of terrorists to simultaneously hijack four airliners, and shift the blame to the people of Iraq and Afghanistan—with the help of a dumbed-down American public that is mostly too lazy to learn the truth.
