It was a perfect storm involving a corrupt judge, miscreant prosecutors who suborned perjury and a clever witness, who was facile at fabricating stories touting non-existent military valor, stolen from other service men and women of America. Hinkson was handed a life sentence in 2005 because the trial judge would not allow him to present hard evidence of his innocence, such as his passport showing he was not in Idaho when the crimes supposedly were committed. Now the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, which reversed the Hinkson conviction in May 2008, has overturned that decision and in a complicated and convoluted opinion by Judge Carlos Bea on November 5, 2009. text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.fourwinds10.com http://www.fourwinds10.com/siterun_data/government/judicial_and_courts/news.php?q=1258301597 November 9, 2009 Atlanta: The sanctions of Dr. Orly Taitz by Judge Land of the US District Court for the Middle District of Georgia last month should have set off alarm bells for every public interest attorney in the United States.

According to the Obama administration, the answer is no. Solicitor General Elena Kagan argues in a friend of the court brief that local, state, and federal prosecutors must enjoy absolute immunity from citizen lawsuits – even when they sent innocent men to prison for life by fabricating incriminating evidence and hiding exculpatory evidence.

After leaving mortgage investors, bank shareholders, and pension fiduciaries awash in losses and a large chunk of Wall Street feeding at the public trough, the full threat of this vast securitization machine and its unseen masters who push the levers behind a tightly drawn curtain is playing out in courtrooms across America. Three plain talking judges, in state courts in Massachusetts and Kansas, and a Federal Court in Ohio, have drilled down to the “straw man” aspect of securitization. The judges’ decisions have raised serious questions as to the legality of hundreds of thousands of foreclosures that have transpired as well as the legal standing of the subsequent purchasers of those homes, who are more and more frequently the Wall Street banks themselves. text/html 1970-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 http://www.fourwinds10.com http://www.fourwinds10.com/siterun_data/government/judicial_and_courts/news.php?q=1256322302 Oct. 22, 2009 Cross Posted at Legal Schnauzer The Alabama Supreme Court apparently was not content to cheat the public with the outrageous ExxonMobil ruling.

The lawsuit, filed Tuesday in New York's State Supreme Court, was brought on behalf of former investors and seeks unspecified punitive damages and compensation.
