I believe that District Court Judge Michael R. Hogan and Stenographer Deborah Wilhelm intentionally altered the transcript of the telephone hearing that took place in the judge's chambers on November 30, 2011. This was a hearing over the phone. After I argued for the inclusion as a witness of a disabled tenant from my former housing who had first hand information that showed a pattern of discrimination against those with disabilities by the defendants James Hackett and the Linn Benton Housing Authority, one of the attorneys for the defense, Stephen Rickles, said:
"Objection, Judge if you allow this witness to testify before a jury it will open the door for disabled people to sue us."
Judge Hogan then said: "Objection sustained."
My claim before the court is based on discrimination because of disability.
On December 1, 2011, I filed an objection with the court which is Document # 412 to the rulings made by Judge Hogan the day before. I wrote that I was appalled at Stephen Rickles' discriminatory objection.
Judge Hogan then ordered the stenographer to provide me with a copy of the transcript of the telephone hearing and when I read it I saw that Deborah Wilhelm had omitted Stephen Rickles' discriminatory objection entirely.
This is a crime against the United States and a violation of my First Amendment right to just redress in our courts and my Fourteenth Amendment rights under the equal protection clause.
I met with an FBI agent on the morning of December 7, 2011 to report this omission and he took a copy of the letter I had written to Deborah Wilhelm that was a polite request that she correct her omission. I then delivered that letter to the court and asked Ms. Wilhelm if she received it. She assured me in front of clerk Jill Wright that she had received it. Two days later I wrote Deborah Wilhelm a certified letter requesting a true copy of the digital recording of the hearing.
Ms. Wilhelm did not reply to either of my letters. The Supreme Court has ruled in other cases that silence is construed as an admission of guilt.
On January 10, 2012, I visited the District Court in Eugene with an individual who studied law under Leon Panetta when he taught in California years ago. This dear friend of mine served Deborah Wilhelm with subpoenas for production of true copies of the digital recordings of the hearing that took place on November 30, 2011 and the hearing that took place on December 7, 2011.
Ms. Wilhelm repeated over and over again before two other clerks and my friend:
"Ms. Rosenfeld, would you like to resolve this right now? You can come into my office and listen to what I heard."
I declined because I do not need to hear a recording -- I need to see a recording.
I can tell in a heartbeat if a recording was altered if I have a "true copy" of that digital recording.
I remember how during the first pre trial conference for this case which was on July 14, 2009, I watched Judge Michael R. Hogan look Stephen Rickles in the eyes and say:
"If you can get this claim thrown out she will only have one left."
It was as if I was not even present. I heard the arrogance and condescension in Judge Hogan's tone and my growing awareness that Judge Hogan abused his power as a federal judge was confirmed -- the emperor wore no clothes.
When I paid for and got the transcript of the July 14, 2009 pre trial conference from Deborah Wilhelm, the words of advice and encouragement that marked the judge's bias and prejudice were omitted that time too.
My son called recently and asked about the case. I told him about the latest twist in my quest for help from the federal courts to stop discrimination against the disabled and tax payer funded crimes against children in their own homes across America.
He said I'm proud of you, Mom. You just keep going down the path that life has opened for you and you shed your pure blazing light into every dark dark corner.
