First Day Of School In Frankfort, Kansas

 

It's that time of year again in Frankfort, Kansas, and this story will appear once again on this site, because the school here in Frankfort has not seen fit to come into compliance with safety standards observed by schools in other parts of Kansas, and has not come into compliance with federal law concerning the presence of weapons on school property, bullying, or student safety. The only change made is that credit shall be granted where it is due: the name of the errant and uncorrected guidance counselor who has been granted carte blanche to endanger children is Tom Schroeder.

Anyone who's listening, I will tell you a story. It's a true story, and it happened in October of 2009. Thankfully, it had a happy ending.

My oldest daughter used to be quite the avid cross country buff when she was thirteen years old. She was good at it, too. But one day, while she was at practice, and I was at home, just assuming that all was well, her coach drove past my house, stopping to talk to my eight year old son. Mr. Coach wanted to know if Mr. Eight Year Old had seen his older sister. Mr. Eight Year Old had not. No one had seen my daughter in over two hours. She was lost. Why was she lost? Because her coach had dropped her off by the side of a highway, four miles south of the town we live in, by herself, and just left her. It was part of cross country practice. No supervision. If she had been stung by a bee, had tripped and hurt herself, or had some other medical emergency, no one would have been there to help her. (at this juncture, you should know that I offered to volunteer to help with cross country, but since I do not attend a Christian church, my offer was rejected. The school staff thought it better to take chances with a child's safety in the way I just described) When my daughter realized that she did not know her way back, she started to wander on a side road, hoping it would bring her to a house, or another person. This area has a lot of commercial farms, and there were no houses or places my daughter could go to for help.
Back to my eight year old son.......Twenty minutes went by. While he did not realize the significance of his conversation with Mr. Cross County Coach, (also Mr. Guidance Counselor) he did realize that no one knew where his sister was, and it was getting later and later, and no one was looking for her. So he told me about it. I looked all over town, called all her friends, searched the school (why was the school left unlocked after everyone had gone home?) and finally started home to call the police, when a couple of senior boys drove up with my crying daughter in their car. It was still within a few minutes of when I found out she was missing, but this cross country coach had known all afternoon, and had not called the police, or spoken to me. Why? I guess whatever he cared about, it WASN'T my daughter. Well.........I actually DO care about my daughter. Nowhere else have I met a teacher that did NOT care, at least a little, about the children he teaches, but I think that is what the problem is with Mr. Cross Country Coach/ Guidance Counselor.

Suppose it was not young men from her school who found her, but a dangerous person? I have been told time and time again by the people who live in this small Kansas town that "those things don't happen here", and "there ARE no dangerous people here", but there was a sex offender whose address was within half a mile of where my daughter was abandoned. The police were quick to point that out, but the principal only argued his harmlessness as a sex offender with them and the school board is not worried about the incident.

My children no longer participate in cross country at their school. It isn't safe.

Laura McNish And Marshall County Courthouse No Shows

Hey Laura, when you have a defendant who has been summoned to court and is a no-show, you will generally not find him hanging about in the hallway of the courthouse. And the young man you wanted to detain was not the defendant, either. You owe him an apology for your dumbass mistake, and you owe his mother an apology for your filthy language. Once upon a time, obscene words and an unkempt appearance on the part of an officer of the court were both considered contempt of court. It appears that in Marshall County, Kansas, the prosecutor is permitted the liberty of using foul language in the courtroom.  A bit similar to your son and his ongoing liberty to vandalize and destroy the property of others with no consequences, while those who are not so well connected do not enjoy the same rights to commit crimes, isn't it? You and your family have set a terrible example for the young people in Marshall County, Kansas, Laura. Your decorum and lack of manners is unbecoming to an officer of the court. If you insist upon dressing like a slob and using filthy language in court, the least you could do is impose the same laws on your children that govern the rest of the state.

School Shootings And Northeast Kansas

Marshall County, Kentucky; January 24......16 children shot by someone outside the school, 2 of them were killed. Here's a letter written by a child who witnesses the shooting and buried a friend, as a result.

Broward County Florida, February 14.....17 children killed by a former student, who had been expelled because he enjoyed taking guns to school.

Marshall County Kansas, Frankfort, March thru May of 2014......an eighteen year old high school senior who was out of jail on bond and on probation for a previous crime took a gun to school with him. While he was expelled, he was allowed back into the building seven weeks later for commencement, in violations of the Gun Free School Zones Act, which mandates that such a student be barred from entering the building for an entire year. Dean Dalinghaus, the principal, has a habit of rudely accusing anyone who does not want guns inside of Frankfort School of wanting the school to be like "an inner city school"! He then proceeds to all of the other parents and children with derisive comments about the parent who wishes to ban guns from the school. As it happens, Dalinghaus neglected to make the proper reports about the incident in 2014 to the FBI, and had not even told the Kansas Department of Education that an arrest had been made at Frankfort High School involving a student and a gun. That's how well some schools enforce the law.

I Hope You Heard This, Laura McNish

I hope, Laura McNish, county attorney of Marshall County, Kansas, that you have been paying attention to recent events. Do you remember when you advised the principal of a public school here in Marshall County, Kansas to tell one of my children that she wasn't welcome in school because she might "ruin the culture"? Even though all the other children from my community ARE welcome there? My child, unlike most of the children who attend public schools in YOUR county, had no criminal history, had never used illegal drugs, and had never even tasted alcohol. You just wanted to hurt her feelings. She did not accept your monetary offer to render false information in court, like a couple of other people did, in that case that you LOST back in 2013, so you requested that she be the victim of discrimination. 

Guess what? The nation is starting to see people like you more clearly. Not only are you racist; you favor bigots who offer you money over honesty and truth. The combination of modern technology and the First Amendment to our Constitution have conspired to make this a very awkward time in history for you to continue your crap. Your racist and white separatist goals were never good for any part of Kansas, and certainly have no place now. Equality and love are what I have always taught my children, and it looks as if I might not have been alone, after all.

I really hope you have noticed all the recent developments. Oh, by the way, was your son ever publicly held accountable for driving one of your vehicles over someone's cornfield in Marshall County, Kansas, in the summer of 2013? You know....the same way OTHER young people would have been held accountable? Or is accountability only for other people, and not your children?

Just resign, Laura. No one needs your racism, favoritism, and filth.

First Day Of School In Frankfort, Kansas

It's that time of year again in Frankfort, Kansas, and this story will appear once again on this site, because the school here in Frankfort has not seen fit to come into compliance with safety standards observed by schools in other parts of Kansas, and has not come into compliance with federal law concerning the presence of weapons on school property, bullying, or student safety.

Ya Mad, Laura? Ya Mad?

Not too long ago, it was brought to my attention, by a neighbor, that Laura Johnson-McNish, the county attorney of Marshall County, Kansas, cheats on her taxes. At first, I didn't believe it, because it is such a pedestrian and corrupt thing for an elected official to do, but my neighbor proved it by directing me to the appropriate website. McNish pays property taxes on a farm, which would not be a problem if McNish actually owned farmland and farmed. As it happens, farming and ranching are prohibited in the Keystone Addition, where she lives, so there is not a legal way her property could be considered a farm. All of her neighbors pay property taxes on residential properties.

Earlier this month, at a hearing that had nothing to do with anyone's property taxes, Ms. McNish expressed some angry feelings at the person who made her tax discrepancies public. Specifically, she wanted a judge to take what was written about her tax evasion into consideration during a sentencing hearing. While the judge probably did this, he asked her if she was "incensed". McNish may be incensed; but why isn't she paying a just and fair amount of property taxes to the community off of which she leaches? Everyone else pays the appropriate amount of property tax, and no one else "farms" on land where farming is not permitted. For that matter, no one has actually been able to find the McNish's farm! Her son drove drunk through a cornfield once, and was never sanctioned, but that was nowhere near Keystone Addition.

If Laura Johnson-McNish is angry or "incensed", perhaps she should remember that Marshall County actually has ample reason to be incensed with her.

Let Me Explain What I Said About Property Tax

In the Spring of 2016, I started sharing information on this site about the property taxes of the Marshall County attorney, Laura McNish. At present, all of the information about Marshall County, Kansas, and the taxes of property owners indicates that Ms. McNish is cheating when she files her property taxes. I have heard questions and opinions, both in person and in writing, to the effect that Ms. McNish cannot possibly do such a thing, but the facts and figures do not lie. Below is a screenshot of the county attorney's property tax information for the year 2015. Note that her residential property, in a completely residential neighborhood, in a place where farming is forbidden by the covenants, is listed as a farm, rather than a residence.

Now that you have had a chance to see Laura McNish's property taxes, you should be aware that all of her neighbors in the Keystone Addition are paying property taxes on residences, not farms. Also, for your viewing pleasure, I have included an excerpt from the covenants of the Keystone Addition, stating that agriculture and business are prohibited. So anyone can see that there is no legal way that Laura McNish, Esquire, can run a farm on her acre or so of lawn space around her house on Lot 114 in the Keystone Addition. Hopefully, this will answer everyone's questions about the posts on this site concerning possible tax fraud on the part of the Marshall County Attorney. Of course, this is only what we know about, so far. There may be more.

No one is above the law, and anyone who enforces the law should keep the law. This includes county attorneys in Kansas.

Private Message

Hey Laura, there is something you should at least try to recognize. I would never have known about your son and the vandalism he committed in Marshall County, Kansas, in the summer of 2013, had you not scrambled so desperately to blame someone else for the damage to your vehicle. Do you think that those whose assistance you sought in making false accusations were quiet about what you said? Think again! And.....as a freak of happenstance.....I just happened to be present when your son's victim confronted you. You did not even appear to remember the incident, or his connection to it; but he remembered! How on earth do you forget the destructive behaviors of your own progeny toward your constituents, anyway? Aren't you even the slightest bit embarrassed? If not, you should be. It is also quite clear that you neglected to pay off all of your son's classmates in exchange for silence. Most of them were too young, at the time, to be legally held to a contract; but do you seriously expect them not to talk when your son brags about his own unlawful behavior, as if it were an amusing pastime for him? Don't be so unrealistic.

You also need to be aware that our state and federal authorities are not the "Poetry Police", charged with a sweet and sparkly mission of making the internet and the world of printed words a pleasant and wonderful place for you! You appear to have no reservations about destroying reputations, lodging false accusations, fracturing families, or ruining lives. Are you really that surprised when others desire to see you and yours held accountable for your lies and wrongdoing? If you seriously think that dishonesty is a good approach for your job, you need to develop a thicker skin. As an elected official, you do not have the same protections from liable or slander that the rest of the world enjoys; and if you harm others, people are going to talk about it.

And Laura, where's this farm to which you refer every year, when you do your taxes?

How The Stop Signs Got Holy

According to the Marysville Advocate, Tom Bennett, of an engineering company called B.G. Consultants, has stated that Marshall County, Kansas has more "holy" stop signs than any other county in Kansas.  He also informed the county attorney, Laura McNish, that each stop sign will cost $80.00 to replace. McNish responded with the observation that Marshall County is spending money to put up new signs that could be "vandalized the very next day". Imagine that, in a county where the magistrate judge turns a deaf ear to complaints about drunk teenagers who drive on sidewalks! One would almost think McNish actually cares about destruction of property!

While taking shots at road signs is definitely a form of entertainment for less intelligent types, and unacceptable behavior anywhere, Laura McNish has certainly got a lot of nerve to complain about either destruction of property or the waste of government funds. This quote was made at a Marshall County Council meeting in 2013: "EQUAL PROSECUTION. CM spoke about an example of a juvenile crossing private property cutting donuts with a vehicle. She talked about prosecution and restitution and asked why some people are singled out for the exact crime and some are not. CA McNish said Municipal Court has no jurisdiction over juveniles. CM asked CA McNish to comment on fair and equal prosecution in town. CA McNish said he has been more than fair. No decisions were made." A council member had found it odd that the son of the Marshall County attorney had driven the Marshall County attorney's vehicle through a farmer's cornfield, destroying property, and had largely gotten away with it. The young man later boasted in school, to all who would listen, that he could do whatever he pleased because his parents are elected officials in Marshall County. He was not charged with a crime, as other juveniles are in those situations. His classmates have also expressed surprise that he felt perfectly comfortable using a vehicle to plow into mailboxes in Marysville. He was even a bit of a behavioral problem in school, but never sanctioned or assisted, because his parents did not want him "labeled". That said, what's good for the county attorney's family is probably what many parents in Marshall County feel is good for their own families, and when a kid destroys government property, responsibility is the last thing many of the parents take. Can anyone blame them? Look at the example set by Marshall County's attorney!

Any taxpayer who is concerned about the waste of tax dollars should be aware that Laura McNish is extremely fond or perusing the internet while sitting in her taxpayer funded chair in Marysville's taxpayer funded office. At times when there are actual issues which require the attention of a county attorney, she is so enamored of social media that entire days slip by, while she engrosses herself in one person's Facebook or Google media. Does this sound unbelievable? Click this link! Any real problem, from a murder to a bullet-ridden stop sign, will take a back seat to Laura's interest in matters online. "The rest of us have to pay so someone can have a childish moment", she whines, states the Marysville Advocate. How many childish moments has Marshall County funded for the county attorney? According to the tracker for this site, on April 18, 2013 taxpayers paid the bill for 1,380 childish moments for Laura McNish.

Hopefully, the future will see no more vandalism in Marshall County and many more responsible uses of guns, government property, and taxpayer funded time.  

Reflections On Citizen Cain

I have compiled a bunch of comments that were sent to me about the Miranda Cain matter; this post, and this post, and the position I take, concerning the community of Marshall County, Kansas, and crime committed by high school students. I published many of the comments I received directly in the respective discussions because those comments reflected intelligent thought, and asked intelligent questions. A few comments did not. Those comments either got deleted, or saved, in order for further address in another post. Now, I will write this "other post", and share the sillier comments, which I did not find enhanced any intelligent conversation about Marshall County, crime, or Citizen Cain's individual case.

Here is our first dumbass comment, made anonymously by someone who thinks that serious and outlandish crime should go unnoticed by everyone and permitted to continue as long as the spoiled brat feels like destroying lives. 

	"First of all God will judge Cain, that's not your job... Second, I have a feeling if God is judging your comments you may soon be entered into a psych ward, get a life and quit getting off on someone else's problems and some towns issues... Marshall county and Marysville is a great place to call home and raise a family. There are rotten apples in every batch, focus on the good ones, I know plenty of them in Marysville." My answer? First of all, "the People", of whom I am one, judged Cain already, via the judicial system. Before Cain was arrested, God didn't care what she did or who she hurt, as long as she was willing to vote Republican. It's a miracle that she was prosecuted in the climate of selective justice we have, here in Kansas, but I am grateful that the police in Marysville were willing to "judge" her long enough to put a stop to her "distinguished service". If "God" is judging my comments, he should be a lot less concerned about them and a lot more concerned about some of the things children in Marshall County have been taught to do, and led to believe are healthy and harmless. Yes, rotten apples are plentiful, but if we remove them, the ethylene gas and plant hormones that cause them to ripen prematurely will cease to "rot" the rest of the apples. Shouldn't we look at human trafficking the same way? As for being "entered into" a psych ward, what the hell is that? Is it anything like being "entered into a ledger" or "entered into" evidence? Evidence! Ask Citizen Cain about it! Now for the second loony-toony dumbass comment: If you don't like the school then shut the heck up and move somewhere else! You are the most judgemental person I have EVER come across. It's idiots like you that should NOT be able to have a blog. As I have told everyone in the past, even if I move to Brazil, I will not stop writing about Kansas. Especially Marshall County. What's wrong with judgmental types? Do they get in the way of your crime, and other unflattering secrets? Why would you want to deny me my first amendment rights, and have Google tell me I cannot maintain any blog or website? Do the observations and opinions of others bother you so much that you would wish to see the Constitution null and void? That's extreme. Perhaps you should move to a country that does not have the same freedoms as America! And now here's the third totally dumbass reflection on this mess, along with my response. "First off maybe instead of bashing people you should know the whole story first. The 8th grader asked Miranda to do it. Her mom is a worthless parent and doesnt care about her kids. She was doing it before Miranda decided to join in. So instead of a one sided stupid post. Know the whole story." This comment assumes that a child whose parents are not good at parenting somehow deserves to be victimized by the likes of an abusive Marysville High School student, and that Citizen Cain's abuses of children are okey-dokey, because the child was not important to anyone in Marysville. This is the kind of person your faithful blogger truly hates. No kidding. There is no evidence that has been shared with the public about the eighth grader's attitude, and it really doesn't matter, anyway. Citizen Cain is an adult, and child abuse should have been out of the question. Why didn't Miranda Cain report the child's activities, if the child was already involved in crime? I really don't have to know the whole story in order to respond to this guff with the right questions. In fact, silly-assed commenter, I await your answer to that! Why, in bloody hell, didn't Miranda Cain simply report the juvenile's crime to the proper authorities? Or was the juvenile truly involved in crime before the Marshall County High School senior got involved? My post was not one sided, and neither are my questions. Tomorrow, the results of Citizen Cain's trial will be published in the Marysville Advocate.

Child Prostitution In Marshall County Kansas

"Those who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones!!!
If you think you and your family are perfect then maybe you shouldn't even be worried about other peoples business. You do not know all the facts nor do you have the right to judge anyone. Innocent until proven guilty!!! I wonder if others judge you the same as you judge others..."

Above is a comment that was sent to this site yesterday, concerning this post, describing Miranda Cain, the teenage madam in Marysville, Kansas who was arrested for pimping an eighth grader from her school to a stranger. Yes, you read that correctly. There are problems in many schools across the nation, but this one is a bit unusual.....and we should all probably be thankful for that! But on the other hand, that makes the small community of Marysville famous for presenting serious danger to children.

The person who wrote that comment was not thinking about the child whose life may, very well, have been ruined by this whole mess. The comment only defends Miranda Cain, and does not consider the safety of any of the other children. No one is important to this person except Citizen Cain. Nothing else, from the well being of others, particularly children, to the quality of the community matters to the writer of the comment. This is all too common in Marshall County, Kansas.

Citizen Cain was a Marysville High School student who had been recognized for "distinguished service" (the term takes on a new meaning in Cain's case) by the administration of Marysville High School. She was one of the students who was touted as a "good example" for others to follow. This is disturbing. Contrary to the opinion of the writer of the comment, it is extremely important that everyone in Marshall County be aware of Citizen Cain and her pastimes. The administration of Marysville High School told other children to follow the example of a person who is now in jail, awaiting trial for sex trafficking. Parents were led to believe that their children were safe around Cain. Now, at least one child's life has been ruined, and that's only the child about whom we happen to know. It would come as no surprise to hear about more. Since Marysville High School has administrators and a school board who reward such behavior handsomely and assist students who are involved in crime in gaining scholarships and grants for college, while normal children get neglected; it is abundantly clear that without public conversation about this issue, administration at the schools in Marshall County Kansas will continue to sweep student crime under the proverbial rug and lie to parents forever, if they can get away with it. Yes, it is important to talk about this. It is also important to stress that human trafficking and child abuse are wrong. It appears that school boards in Kansas do not understand this. It also appears that school boards in Kansas do not understand that prostitution is against the laws in most places.

Inasmuch as "innocent until proven guilty" goes, the Marysville Advocate described the evidence in the case against Miranda Cain in rather explicit detail, and it looks as if the case is strong. If Citizen Cain is averse to pleading guilty, she will probably invoke her right to a jury trial. As for "living in glass houses", the comment assumes that a parent must somehow be perfect before protecting his children from human traffickers and other icky influences. This is error. Whether perfect or not, every parent has a responsibility to protect his children from students like Miranda Cain and school administrators who tell children to follow Miranda Cain's example! Sometimes, these decisions are not popular in places where immoral behavior IS popular, but this is one of the reasons why children should always be taught to question authority and never to blindly follow a crowd.

One more thing; when a student who has the carte blanche approval of school administration is apprehended while trafficking another student for sex, it is everyone's business. Hopefully, the writer of this comment will come to understand that every parent in Kansas, or who merely passes through Kansas with children in tow, needs to know about Miranda Cain. It is the business of everyone, now that it is public information. When a county of less than 10,000 people has a problem with human trafficking, awareness becomes the business of everyone. If Citizen Cain's position as part of the problem, rather than part of the solution hurts someone's widdle feelins', too bad! Shouldn't Miranda Cain's victim(s) matter just as much as Miranda Cain matters?

Who's Responsible For The Journal Entry?

Hey, Judge Angela Hecke, of Marshall County, Kansas...when the attorney representing one of the parties before you, in your courtroom, wants to know who is going to be responsible for typing up the journal entry, outlining your decision, why do you not direct anyone to do so? Why do you deny a copy of the court order to those who seek justice? And when court is over, why do you then tell the sheriff your decision was something other than what you stated in court? Don't you think that the person you stomped on will look at this post? I'll betcha she will. The next time an attorney offers to type up an order, you should thank him and let him do it.

It might also be a good idea to stop mocking our justice system. And if you really believe what the bible says, you should be aware that perverting justice is wrong.

New Hampshire Cop Hates Watching Obama On TV

Sometimes, as Shakespeare's Hamlet pined, it seems that "life is just one, long sigh." Wolfeboro New Hampshire, host of one of Mitt Romney's many abodes, is also host of a police commissioner by the name of Robert Copeland. Officer Copeland hates watching TV these days, because every time he turns on his TV, he sees that "f*cking n*gg*r", meaning President Obama. When he made this statement, he was eating in a restaurant, and speaking loudly enough be overheard by one of his constituents.

What a jerk. Not only does Copeland abuse the trust placed in him and his position by the public by downgrading part of the population, he sets a terrible example and uses language that would generate detentions and suspensions if used by children at school. It also sounds as though he might not protect and serve a constituent who happens to be African American.

Copeland refuses to resign, even though many people in Wolfeboro have requested the same. Sadly, New Hampshire is not the only state hosting ignorant racists. Pictured below is a Facebook post made by an uneducated Kansas man, calling for violence against a woman half his size. It appears that his reasons for hate are largely centered upon her religion. One of the persons who hit "like" is Tim Ackerman, the undersheriff in Marshall County, Kansas. Laura McNish, the county attorney, does not see a problem with law enforcement granting permission in such a manner to commit assault and battery for reasons of religious and cultural hate. She probably approves of the occasional racist act, as well.

Another "liker" for this post is a public school teacher in a small public school. Don't these people realize the responsibility that accompanies public office and teaching?

More Corruption Within The Energy Industry

When will we learn?

More locally, a conflict was exposed not too long ago, right here, involving two attorneys, the Grain Belt Express, and Marshall County Kansas.

Private Message

Why did you kill him, Laura? Was he failing to plea properly, for your convenience? Did he insist upon a jury trial? Did you scare him into believing that his loved ones no longer cared about him? Did you tell him that he would never see his friends or his family again? How could you do a thing like that? He had only committed a misdemeanor, and had not even had the chance to put on a defense. Why did you kill him, Laura?

Did you suspend all medical treatment and physician's orders until he confessed to something he didn't do? Is the taking of another's life seriously better, in your world, than allowing a man to have his day in court? You're darn tootin' the whole thing is a tragedy for his family: just not so much for you! Was the cause of death even truthfully determined? It doesn't matter though; he was healthy, and you know you killed him.

When you ask for "privacy", a lot of us are able to see that request for what it truly is: code for a demand  for silence from the community about your misconduct. The only way to sidestep a thorough investigation, complete with reports of what you told him and how you threatened him is to push for privacy. Secrecy is always your best friend, Laura. You always want to hide your best work, but if you do something, you should have no problem standing behind what you do. Marshall County Kansas should be enraged with you because of this young man's death, Laura. If all of us, even your supporters, were given the choice between you and this young man, we would all have chosen him. His smile was beautiful, and will never be seen again because you killed him.

Kansas Focuses On Stalking?

Yes, you read the question correctly. WIBW has reported that Kansas is (ahem, cough, cough, cough, smirk, giggle, cough) focused, because January is National Stalking Awareness Month, on reducing the number of stalking incidents in Kansas! Where's the eye-rolley when I need it?

In March of last year, a woman whose son's romantic overtures had been consistently rebuffed by a young girl at Frankfort High School, in Marshall County, Kansas, decided to stalk the girl's mother by following her through Frankfort one evening and getting out of her car when the girl's mother parked at her home. Instead of using the principal's office as a place to promote her son's wild oats and desirability as a prom date, the woman wanted to use the front lawn of the girl's family. She also wanted to blame the girl for her son's obesity and the resulting medical and self image problems. The magistrate judge in Marshall County denied the family a no-stalking order.

Later on, during the summer, the son of the Marshall County prosecutor took a drive through the cornfield of a Marshall County farmer. He used a vehicle belonging to his parents, the same vehicle he has used on mailboxes in Marysville, Kansas, in the past. (information courtesy of neighbors and victims) No protective orders, as of yet, have been issued against this particular hoodlum to ensure his arrest should he revisit the homes and properties where his tire tracks have been found in the past; yet, a random citizen was almost blamed for damage to county attorney's vehicle, damage which most likely incurred while her own child was using the vehicle to vandalize the property of others! The Marshall County magistrate judge thought that this was proper, until the random citizen consulted an attorney. When the Marshall County prosecutor realized that she was going to have to begin to pay out of her own pocket for her frivolous legal actions and accusations against innocent citizens, she ceased her false accusations of the random citizen, yet did nothing to warn others to protect themselves and their cornfields, gardens, and mailboxes from the real threat and the vehicle used for damaging property. So much for stalking awareness in Marshall County. Any anti-stalking laws in Kansas are only used in Marshall County as a form of harassment, not as a form of protection. Those who truly need protection are denied.

Fast forward through a couple of seasons of threats and harassment to stalking victims in Marshall County, followed by denials of protection orders from the magistrate judge. The day after Christmas, the lawn of the family of the above mentioned Frankfort stalking victim had a drive-through visit by a vehicle belonging to the family of the stalker that they had in March. The sidewalk was also used as a street for vehicular traffic. Law enforcement declined to make an immediate report about the incident. Very early the next morning, the same vehicle plowed, once again, through the victim's lawn, grazed her front porch, and proceeded through the neighbor's front lawn. Had Angela Hecke, magistrate judge of Marshall County, Kansas, seen orders against trespassing and stalking as anything besides political tools to be used against Jews, and other non-christians, perhaps the family experiencing the threat of getting run over by vehicles could have had an order in place, ensuring attention from law enforcement at the onset. It's hard to imagine that Kansas is focused on stalking when a magistrate judge encourages repeat instances of drunk children driving on sidewalks, into lawns, and up to the front porches of victims.

Justice And Magistrate Court In Marshall County Kansas

Anyone experiencing legal problems in Marshall County Kansas, as a plaintiff, defendant, or as a witness, should be aware of his or her constitutional rights. Any attorney you hire should practice mostly outside of Marshall County. You should not hire anyone who cares about the political gossip structure of Marshall County, because a lawyer who cares more about local politics than about your case will not truly represent you. If you are a defendant, you should demand a jury trial if you can. While copping a plea may seem less expensive and easier, a jury of your peers will usually be more fair to you than the prosecutor or the magistrate judge. You have the right to bypass a bench trial with the magistrate judge and go directly to a jury trial, if you so choose. If you have a public defender, make sure he understands this. If he tells you that you cannot have a jury trial, he is lying. If you are found not guilty, you may actually save money in the long run, because you won't have to pay court costs, fees, fines, ect. You also won't have a criminal record. If Laura McNish, the Marshall County prosecutor, threatens you or tries to scare you, remember that she is a dishonest bully, and scare tactics are all she actually has in the way of tools of her trade. Once she is in the courtroom, she comes across as an idiot with no talent or skill. She also lacks insight in the job of prosecuting crime, and goes to court unprepared for trial. A defendant who does not accept a plea is a serious problem in her life. Unless she can intimidate witnesses or charm a jury with exceptionally believable lies, she has no compelling courtroom presence. Even if you have a public defender appointed to your case, tell him you want a jury trial. If he says no, insist upon contacting the Kansas Bar Association, and when you go to your first court appearance, stubbornly refuse a plea or a bench trial. Laura McNish and Angela Hecke are both as woefully ignorant of the law, and of life outside of the Midwest as the wizard in the Wizard of Oz was of "wizardry". Oh....if you are a witness, remember that it is unlawful to lie in court, even if the prosecuting attorney asks you to do it for her.

 

Because of Laura McNish's lack of expertise as a lawyer, actual crime in Marshall County Kansas generally goes unnoticed, uninvestigated, and unprosecuted until the KBI or the FBI becomes involved. She is only proficient in prosecuting petty crimes and intimidating those who do not understand their rights and are too weak to stand up for themselves.

 

Michael Saffioti Dies Of Food Allergies In Jail

Only twenty-three years old. Michael Saffioti had just turned himself in because he had to serve time for possession of Marijuana. He had food allergies, particularly to dairy products. Does it look like any employees at the jail had the slightest concern? Not to me. He ate some oatmeal that he was told had no dairy products. His poor mom had to bury him because of that. Over a prohibition law. Was it worth it, conservative creeps? Was it worth it?

I am allergic to oats, and other foods as well, and I am surprised Saffioti lived as long as two hours after eating them. Food allergies can kill quickly.

Marshall County Kansas can actually go Snohomish County Washington one better on this. The county prosecutor, Laura McNish, will actually have witnesses arrested when their perspectives and testimonies favor the defense, rather than the prosecution, (her new policy, I've been told, after she tried to intimidate yours truly into lying for her in court as a witness) and if they have food allergies, celiac disease, or other  health problems, she will actually order that doctor's orders NOT be followed until the witness she has arrested agrees to alter his or her testimony to fit the needs of the prosecution. If a witness cannot still be in jail during a court proceeding, he or she has a strong chance of being in the emergency room or the morgue; not in court, revealing the truth. This is nothing short of attempted murder.
 

Stupid Prosecutor Loses License To Practice Law

Mingo County, West Virginia has a position open for a county prosecutor now that Michael Sparks the law license of Michael Sparks, former Mingo County prosecutor, has been revoked. It seems that Michael Sparks was either acutely aware, or vaguely aware, of the practice employed by a West Virginia judge, the former Judge Thornsbury, of planting evidence and falsely accusing innocent people of crimes, and attempting to initiate prosecution against his victims! It appears that in addition to taking a dim view of false litigation, the Supreme Court in West Virginia takes an equally dim view of looking the other way when elected officials in law enforcement and the court have engaged in corrupt, unlawful behaviors that erode the trust of the general public. What a concept! The Supreme Court also has a problem with prosecutors and judges who try to silence federal witnesses. An element of that also played a role here. In fact, Both Sparks and Thornsbury did something that is often done in Marshall County, Kansas, where a prosecutor named Laura McNish is constitutionally incapable (pun somewhat intended) of winning a jury trial by herself, and intimidates and threatens defendants who hire lawyers, invoke their rights, and insist upon jury trials: they attempted to deprive a defendant of adequate legal counsel in exchange for a lighter sentence. A quote from WOWKTV states this:

"Sparks is accused in a scheme to protect former Sheriff Eugene Crum from revelations he'd bought drugs from a campaign sign-maker.
Prosecutors allege Sparks, a former county commissioner and former Circuit Judge Michael Thornsbury offered a lighter sentence if the dealer fired his lawyer and hired one they preferred."

So interfering with a defendant's counsel is also criminally unethical? Who'd have thought?!

On a related note, the Kansas Department of Education is still looking for a way to ensure cooperation of prosecutors in the area of mandatory reporting of all teachers who commit crimes. When teachers who exhibit criminal behavior, such as criminal restraint and kidnapping are prosecuted and reported to the Department of Education AS THE LAW REQUIRES, it is much easier to identify them and deny the renewals of teachers' licenses. Perhaps if Marshall County Kansas had a prosecutor with competence, instead of Laura McNish, court in Marshall County would begin to administer justice and Frankfort High School would be safe enough to get insurance.

 

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.
