You're Welcome, Marshall County, Kansas

Not much has been said publicly about the case styled "State Of Kansas vs. Keith Lynn Henry", September 4, 2013, yet it set a very fundamental precedent re-establishing the rights of parents and families to adhere to religious and cultural practices in a population that mocks anyone who loves his children and respects his Ancestors. A Frankfort, Kansas father was actually jailed for his refusal to allow his daughter to behave like an unofficial prostitute and drink beer with a local young man in her class, who had recently reached the age of majority. The principal of the school both attended, Dean Dalinghaus, tried very hard to protect the family of the young man who provided the underage girl with beer and transportation, and even inserted himself as a witness in the above case, when he actually was not. He did this because the young lady, now an adult, comes from a family that is much more strict that the average Northeast Kansas family, and does not allow or approve of underage drinking, drunk driving, or indiscriminate romantic relationships among teenagers. This set this family apart from Frankfort, Kansas, and made Dean Dalinghaus's claim to the moral high ground appear just as hollow as it is. As a reaction, Dalinghaus did all he could to smear the reputation of the father who actually loves his children. Dalinghaus spent many hours on the horn with Laura Johnson McNish, the county prosecutor, urging her to do whatever she could to send this father to prison for an assault he did not commit. After this, he promised, he would put down any claim to health and strength by this family, and bring back the more Northern European practices of teenage drunkenness and ill established sexual boundaries and encourage everyone to jeer at this family for wanting a better lifestyle for their children. McNish promised to put the father in prison, and grab all the children, keeping them within the school district, so Dalinghaus could keep the enrollment dollars for his own school district the following year.

In order to do this, Laura McNish had to somehow weave a tale of abuse into the fact that not allowing one's children to experiment with drinking and drugs, while "everyone else is doing it", is somehow abusive and cruel. Needless to say, she was unable to sell the story to child protective services, who actually found fault with Laura McNish's handling of the case, and wondered why Frankfort school officials encourage children to drink alcohol, and even drive after doing so. She threatened witnesses, to the extent of false imprisonment and physical battery, to testify falsely in court. When the father insisted upon a jury trial, she ranted, threatened, and railed. She sent long dissertations about evidence that did not exist, and worked very hard to smear his reputation among all the local schools. Throughout all this, the family did it's best to move forward, despite the acts of hate and unkindness spurred by the officials upon whom they had once depended for justice and the education of their children. This hatred is still a mystery: perhaps it is an outgrowth of Christianity.

 

When the young lady involved wanted to simply drop the false charges and change the direction of the legal case by reconciliation with her family, Laura McNish refused to allow it. In fact, McNish even tried to stop this child from any contact at all with her family........ever. Yes, there is proof of this; and Marshall County should not be proud of an elected official whose family values are so terribly misplaced. So the case went to court, where McNish took over nine hours trying vainly to convince a jury that it is wrong and illegal to tell a female child not to drink alcoholic beverages and not to date adult men. Unfortunately, the fact that two Frankfort High School teachers actually allow underage drinking in their homes was never addressed during this trial, but the jury returned verdicts of "Not Guilty" on all charges. This establishes that the father was legally in the right to tell his daughter not to drink beer, not to go to bars, and when and with whom she could spend time away from home. What a concept; it is still legal to parent responsibly in Marshall County, Kansas! Also, it is no longer legally "kosher", (I know you hate that word, Chance!) to threaten to take children away from parents because of differing eyewitness accounts of events leading to police intervention. At this juncture, here follows a video of something else that leads to police intervention, unless, of course, it involves the children of a certain county prosecutor; in which case, events are often hidden from the general public, so as to present a façade of false decency on the parts of public officials who, unlike Keith Lynn Henry, do not discipline their children. See the video below for a relevant example.



Because Keith Lynn Henry was willing to stand up for his rights, his family, and for the Truth, Kansas parents are now more free to love their children. Laura McNish was unable to use this case to strengthen any human trafficking practices on the part of social services, or to make her own children appear more responsible. While Mr. Henry and his attorney were preparing for court, McNish actually stated, "I thought this was settled! I thought your client was going to accept a plea!" No one knows where she got that idea, as Mr. Henry never intended to falsely admit guilt of any kind. The threats and scare tactics did not work. The lack of public attention given to this case illustrates that those who pay for the advertisements in the local media have some interest in keeping Mr. Henry's successful assertion of his rights a secret. It's almost as if.....Laura McNish and et els did not want local citizens to see that they have rights!

Oh; one more thing: Laura McNish; when we discipline our children and teach them to respect the law, and to respect the property and lives of others, we tend to receive fewer complaints from neighbors about our children driving while intoxicated over their lawns and gardens. You should try it one of these days.
