Prosecuting Attorney Joe Gagnon And Attorneys Holbrook And O’Connell Guilty of Covering Up Police Brutality

Updated 9/27/2017 – 8am with corrections of “sentence structure, spelling, additions and deletions. AND…
I make NO apologies for sharing the truth about those who I have documented as being GUILTY of the below crimes. As a Marine…my favourite quote is “I fear God and no others” and combined with my oath to the Constitution to protect this country from enemies foreign and domestic…I continue to obey that promise to fight against and expose those who I consider “domestic enemies” with this case being one example.
Contrary to the latest smear/slandering of me with lies campaign by rogue and domestic terrorist enemy of the United States… attorney Mary C. O’Connell, I do what I do not with “bullets” but with the TRUTH! It matters not who they are or what they do…whether they wear “black or blue”, a skirt or a suit, or what they title is in the sight of man, I will with God’s help and inspiration expose their works of darkness knowing I am “God inspired” to do so. This is not to say there are not others (Oath Keepers ?) who might revenge the death of Michael S. Stewart if he ends up murdered at the hands of others because of the injustice of this case but that will not be my doing.
Whether in the case of Michael S. Stewart below or Toni Anderson, the Shoar’s family or any and all things related to “Indian Country”, exposing/naming FBI agents working with drug cartels, pedophiles in the government etc etc etc, my Blog is dedicated to exposing the workers of Satan and their works of evil including those who have attacked me personally being sent by Satan himself to try to destroy me in the process.  
This scripture defines my work… “We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” It is those below who I identify and expose in this blog and most all others.   Richard Boyden

The information about this case and all involved is going to be in the NATIONAL MEDIA… !!!!! You are going to become FAMOUS! 🙂

Clinton County Prosecutor and Kansas City Attorney Mary C. O’Connell representing NKCPD Officer Bill Ficken (and others named below) are DOCUMENTED to have committed felony crimes in this case of the cover-up of the brutal beating by named police officers of Former Police Chief and Police Officer Michael S. Stewart!

In fact…if they have their way with the “Court”…Michael S. Stewart will be murdered if sent back to jail for crimes he did not commit and being he is a “Former Cop” they all know that and that IS exactly what they want including the Judge that ruled against him in his original case!

Read my lips…and repeat after me…”American Bar and Missouri Bar” 🙂

Since 1908 the Association’s Standing Committee on Ethics and Professional Responsibility has developed model national ethics standards for lawyers and the judiciary and drafted ABA Formal Ethics Opinions interpreting and applying those standards.
Since 1984, the Model Rules of Professional Conduct have been the standard against which U.S. jurisdictions have compared and developed lawyer rules of conduct.  Extensive revisions to these Rules were adopted in 2002 and 2012 based on the work of the Ethics 2000 Commission and the Ethics 20/20 Commission respectively.  Today’s Model Rules reflect the legal practice in the 21st Century.
In 1990, the ABA restructured and amended the Model Code of Judicial Conduct.  Since that time most state courts have adopted the new Code.
The Standing Committee on Ethics and Professional Responsibility issues ethics opinions interpreting the both the Model Rules of Professional Conduct and the Model Code of Judicial Conduct. ABA Formal Opinions have been cited as persuasive when courts around the nation interpret state-adopted Rules of Professional Conduct.
The Committee and its counsel also consult with other American Bar Association entities, state and local bars, law school communities, the legal news media and the public on matters of emerging interest in the area of legal and judicial ethics.

Complaints and Resolution Programs

When you hire a lawyer, you should expect professional and ethical behavior. Regardless of the efforts to maintain a high degree of competence and ethics among the members of the legal profession, some lawyers fail to meet those standards. If your lawyer violates the Rules of Professional Conduct or The Attorney-Client Relationship, you may file a complaint with the Office of Chief Disciplinary Counsel.

Complaints Against Judges

The Commission on Retirement, Removal and Discipline of Judges is responsible for receiving and investigating all requests for the retirement of judges because of disability and all complaints concerning alleged misconduct of judges and judicial commission members.
This commission is composed of two citizens who are not members of The Missouri Bar, two lawyers, one judge of the court of appeals and one judge of the circuit court of Missouri.

Office of Chief Disciplinary Counsel
Missouri Attorney Discipline System

The Office of Chief Disciplinary Counsel is an agency of the Missouri Supreme Court and is responsible for investigating allegations of misconduct by lawyers, prosecuting the cases where a lawyer’s misconduct poses a threat to the public or to the integrity of the legal profession, and maintaining current records of disciplinary information for lawyers licensed to practice law in Missouri.
When lawyers enter the practice of law in Missouri, they obligate themselves to uphold the law and to abide by the Rules of Professional Conduct governing members of The Missouri Bar. The purpose of attorney discipline is to protect the public and the administration of justice from attorneys who have not discharged their professional duties to clients, the public, the legal system, and the legal profession. The professional conduct of attorneys is governed by Supreme Court Rule 4 and the discipline process is governed by Supreme Court Rule 5.
Clinton County Prosecutor Joe Gagnon along with Attorney Mary C. O’Connell (and other named attorneys below) conspired together with their “clients” North Kansas City Police Department Officers Bill Ficken, Patrick Romaine and Christopher Kimmel and Kevin Freeman to first deny and hide and/or ALTER (say DISCOVERY) a video of the the assault that took place at North Kansas City Hospital by named police officers (and those additionally named below) of Michael S Stewart.
They are also DOCUMENTED TO HAVE ALTERED THAT VIDEO TO HIDE THE ASSAULT. This then makes them guilty judicial misconduct. The the below information which I am presenting is the exact same evidential  template from other cases which is what I call a visual prototype and template documenting their GUILT and which is being reported to the American Bar and Missouri Bar!

The below information, links, and stories are EXACTLY what was done by Gagnon, the LE officers named from NKCPD and with full knowledge of Attorney Mary C. O’Connell

Reynaldo Chaves, a former Albuquerque, N.M., cop who was designated the department’s “custodian of public records,” testified that the Police Department routinely altered and deleted lapel-camera footage, including two police shootings. In the nine-page document, Chaves revealed an organized effort by the city to destroy evidence of the police shooting of Mary Hawkes that extended all the way up the ladder to the city attorney and police leadership:

21. Specifically, I know that from 2013 to the spring of 2014, the primary person in the Criminal Forensic Unit of the City of Albuquerque Police Department, Frank Pezzano, knew how to encrypt and/or erase Taser lapel camera video with a possible result being lapel camera video would either appear blank, encrypted, altered or corrupted when produced to media and/or attorneys …

NKCPD Officer Patrick Romine

Major Kevin Freeman NKCPD FBI trained expert in “altering videos” who worked with NKCPD officers Bill Ficken, Patrick Romine and Christopher Kimmel who assisted in the altering of the video.

Tampering with evidence, or evidence tampering, is an act in which a person alters, conceals, falsifies, or destroys evidence with the intent to interfere with an investigation (usually) by a law-enforcement, governmental, or regulatory authority.[1] It is a criminal offense in many jurisdictions.
Tampering with evidence is closely related to the legal issue of spoliation of evidence, which is usually the civil law or due process version of the same concept (but may itself be a crime). Tampering with evidence is also closely related to obstruction of justice and perverting the course of justice, and these two kinds of crimes are often charged together. The goal of tampering with evidence is usually to cover up a crime.

By law enforcement…say North Kansas City Police…DOCUMENTED!

When police confiscate and destroy a citizen’s photographs or recordings of officers’ misconduct, the police’s act of destroying the evidence may be prosecuted as an act of evidence tampering, if the recordings being destroyed are potential evidence in a criminal or regulatory investigation of the officers themselves.[2] In a notable case in Nebraska, officers were charged with the felony charge of evidence tampering, as well as misdemeanor obstruction and theft, when they committed brutality and forcibly stole and destroyed the recordings, which was exposed due to a third party’s recording.[3] On the other hand, when police departments lose exonerating evidence that would create reasonable doubt for defendants in the cases they prosecute, such as dashboard-camera footage from patrol cars, it may be regarded as spoliation of evidence, potentially justifying motions to dismiss and/or mistrials. Police’s loss of evidence such as footage may be considered as both spoliation and tampering, if it both exonerates the defendant and proves police misconduct. Spoliation of exonerating evidence in criminal cases may also constitute prosecutorial misconduct if the prosecutor is complicit in doing so.

Spoliation of Evidence

http://nmindepth.com/2016/11/18/affidavit-abq-police-have-illegally-deleted-altered-videos-of-shootings/

A manual for Evidence.com published online last month by Taser supports many of Chavez’s claims about the process for editing or deleting videos.

Anyone with administrator privileges at an agency can delete videos, the manual shows. Those clips remain in a queue for seven days. And administrators can “mask” entire videos or portions of them using four different “blur levels.” Audio also can be removed.

Affidavit: ABQ police have illegally deleted, altered videos of shootings

“If I change the setting in Evidence.com to allow offline mode this will give the officer the ability to manage their videos…” Christopher Whigham, APD Detective.

The meeting came just three days after two APD officers shot James Boyd in the foothills at the eastern edge of the city, killing the homeless man who had been illegally camping in city open space.

18 U.S. Code § 1519 – Destruction, alteration, or falsification of records in Federal investigation

Whoever knowingly alters, destroys, mutilates, conceals, covers up, falsifies, or makes a false entry in any record, document, or tangible object with the intent to impede, obstruct, or influence the investigation or proper administration of any matter within the jurisdiction of any department or agency of the United States or any case filed under title 11, or in relation to or contemplation of any such matter or case, shall be fined under this title, imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both.

“As long as the defendant is not given access to substantial discovery devices, discovery is a one-way street
running in favor of the prosecution with the defendant relegated for the accumulation of the information
necessary to his defence to a haphazard investigation, which in most cases he is unable properly to finance
and which is without formal sanction or judicial assistance. The realistic effect of the denial of discovery
is to permit the prosecution “to monopolize the sources of evidence applicable to the case to use or not

Former St. Louis Assistant Prosecutor Pleads Guilty to Concealing Police Officers’ Assault of Arrestee

Gagnon will be charged according to some FBI birdies! Along with O’Connell as the evidence is now confirmed to show they are GUILTY of !Spoliation of Evidence!

Spoliation of evidence is a term often used during the process of discovery.  Spoliation of evidence happens when a document or information that is required for discovery is destroyed or altered significantly.  If a person negligently or intentionally withholds or destroys relevant information that will be required in an action is liable for spoliation of evidence.
When a crucial document is lost by spoliation, the courts may try to infer the original information by applying spoliation inference rule.  Spoliation inference rule is a negative evidential inference.  When applying the rule, courts will review the altered document with inference against the spoliator and in favor of the opposing party.  The theory behind spoliation inference is that when a party has destroyed evidence, it shows that the party had consciousness of guilt or other reasons to avoid evidence.  Hence, the court will conclude that the evidence was not in spoliation’s favour.
Spoliation of evidence is an act that is prohibited by American Bar Association’s Model Rules of Professional Conduct, Rule 37 of Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, and Title 18 United States Code.  Sanctions for spoliation are preventative, punitive and remedial in nature.  Separate tort actions are also permitted.
American Bar Association Rule 3.4 prohibits a lawyer from destroying or assisting another in destroying evidence pertaining to a case.  Likewise Title 18 of United States Code Sections 1503, 1510, 1512 and 1519 prohibits a party from destroying or assisting another in destroying evidence, and provides for criminal prosecution against the wrongdoer.  Under Title 18 United States Code Section 1519, a wrongdoer can be fined in huge amounts and imprisoned up to 20 years.
Under Federal Rules of Civil Procedure Rule 37 possible sanctions are as follows:

  • dismissal of the wrongdoer’s claim;
  • entering judgement against the wrongdoer;
  • excluding expert testimony; and
  • application of adverse inference rule.

Additionally, Rule 37 imposes fines on the wrongdoer.
 

Clinton County Prosecuting Attorney Joe Gagnon is guilty of conspiring with Clinton County and Clay County Law Enforcement Officers and in collusion with the Attorney’s named below to deliberately withhold a video from North Kansas City Hospital and then altering that same video exposing those named officers below who assaulted an arrestee Michael S. Stewart who was in their custody. Gagnon and the named attorney’s below collectively took an affirmative step to conceal the felony assault by the officers named from the presiding Judges in this case including the APPELLATE COURT JUDGES named below.
Gagon has been working with the NKCPD officers guilty of altering the video along with NKCPD officer Bill Ficken’s attorney Mary C. O’Connell. They are collectively guilty of allowing for fabrication charges against Stewart and allowing them to stand in order to cover up the facts while accusing Stewart of of attempted resistance and assault committed by Stewart on the officers which the VIDEO does not show…after being ALTERED. This proves that the charges were in fact were fabricated to cover for injuries the arrestee sustained during the assault which why in the beginning of this case that the release of the video was denied during the discovery phase of his trial.

“Prosecutors are trusted to exercise discretion in enforcing the law and are charged above all with doing justice in a fair and impartial manner,” Gagnon and Mary O’Connell attorney for NKCPD officer Bill Ficken intentionally failed to uphold the Constitution, and must therefore be held to answer for their actions.

Misconduct and punishment. State disciplinary authorities investigate prosecutors accused of misconduct

Unlike any private attorney, the local prosecutor—be he district attorney, county attorney, or criminal district attorney—is an elected official whose office is constitutionally mandated and protected. Prosecutors are still subject to the Rules of Professional Responsibility, but they must police themselves at the trial court level because of their status as independent members of the judicial branch of government. Such a holding is not tantamount to making the fox guardian of the henhouse or letting the wolf keep watch on the flock, because a prosecutor who violates ethical rules is subject to the disciplining authority of the State Bar like any other attorney. Perhaps even more importantly, as mentioned above, his violation of the rules will subject his cases to reversal on appeal when his unprofessional conduct results in a denial of due process to a defendant. Lastly, he, like all elected public officials, must regularly answer to the will of the electorate. Should his conduct create too much appearance of impropriety and public suspicion, he will ultimately answer to the voters. — State ex rel. Eidson v. Edwards, 793 S.W.2d 1 (Tx. 1990)

What Gagnon, O’Connell and other named attorneys are GUILTY OF along with their “criminal clients”!
In a notable case in Nebraska, officers were charged with the felony charge of evidence tampering, as well as misdemeanor obstruction and theft, when they committed brutality.
From the Clinton County Leader

“Michael S. Stewart of Parkville, Mo., filed a personal injury suit against individuals from the three departments on Monday, August 8. In the suit, Stewart and his wife, Jennifer Stewart, seek damages in excess of $2.7 million stemming from alleged incidents in August of 2014.

Attorney For NKCPD Officer Bill Ficken Mary C. O’Connell

O’Connell has full knowledge that 45 seconds of the video were removed that showed her client Ficken choked Stewart out when Stewart was handcuffed to the wheel chair and which Ficken bragged to Stewarts wife that he did just that by holding his hands in a chocking manner to Stewart’s wife which was REMOVED from the original video by either Ficken who O’Connell said had possession of the video and /or/the “other officer” being either NKCPD cops Patrick Romine or Christopher Kimmel or possibly Maj. Kevin Freeman. 

The named Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District Judges below were not allowed to have presented to them the existence of the North Kansas City Hospital Video showing the brutal treatment of Stewart but to also have presented to them the fact that video had been tampered with by having time segments removed and frames missing. It has been admitted by O’Connell that her client NKCPD officer Bill Ficken was responsible for this video and that it was in his possession during the time these changes were made which is why she does not want this evidence released in court. Clinton County Prosecutor Gagnon was in full knowledge of this information when he appeared before the Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District Judges!
Just a side note for the eyes of Mary C. O’Connell who is a pathological liar on her way to hell. She has stated to the “Court” that I “threatened” the named attorneys defending the officers who brutally beat Stewart and almost killed him. Guess what? I DID and in voice mails I left but not in the form of “bodily harm” as she is implying but rather me promising to EXPOSE THEM INCLUDING HERE AS I AM DOING NOW AND REPORTING THEM TO THE MISSOURI BAR AND THE OFFICE OF MISSOURI ATTORNEY DISCIPLINE SYSTEM WITH THE GOAL TO DESTROY THEIR CAREERS FOR DOING WHAT THEY HAVE DONE TO A INNOCENT MAN!
This is why O’Connell is lying / “SLANDERING ME” (say law suit) to the Court in the hopes that the ALTERED WITH HER KNOWLEDGE VIDEO will not be allowed in a motion for “discovery” by Stewart’s attorney which would expose her and Gagnon and the officers named who are guilty of police brutality which this ALTERED VIDEO PROVES!

You gave up some important information Ms. Dumb as a ROCK and I sincerely thank you! 🙂 So read my lips…”You fell for the trap”! 🙂 Have me charged ok? I want to bring the “EVIDENCE” into court PLEASE! 
Tell me O’Connell and Gagnon…how does your future look now? PSSSSST… Every JUDGE not involved in this case will know who you are 🙂 Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas and Semper Fi! 
Named officers in the video…minus their “actions of brutality” thanks to the ALTERATIONS BY FICKEN, ROMINE, KIMMEL AND MAJ. KEVIN FREEMAN WITH FULL KNOWLEDGE OF O’CONNEL AND GAGNON!
David Speiser and John Wilson, then of the Lathrop Police Department, Deputies John Patterson and Jeffery Parton of the Clinton County Sheriff’s Department, and William Neil and Sheriff Porter Hensen of the Clinton County Sheriff’s Department. Speiser also worked at the time for the Clinton County Sheriff’s Department. Two defendants from the North Kansas City Police Department – Christopher Kimmel and shift sergeant Patrick Romine and Gary Ficken, Jr., from the North Kansas City Police Department who worked as a security officer at North Kansas City Hospital.

The Missouri Appellate Court Judges below and Judge Beth Phillips in the Stewart Case were lied to by Clinton County Prosecutor Joe Gagnon and by the collective attorney’s representing the officers involved with Mary O’Connell taking the lead, in the brutal beating of Michael S. Stewart as well as and including the initial fabrication of charges against Stewart with only “hearsay” being used in court because other available videos were also withheld by Gagnon leaving only hearsay evidence of the very officers who beat him. No breathalizer test or any documentation that Stewart had over a .08 alcohol level or ANY alcohol level other then the “lies” of the cops. ALL are collectively guilty of obstruction of justice by the withholding evidence during “discovery” during Stewart’s trial and appeal…namely the video and and altering of with is now documented!

The LIED to Missouri Appellate Court Judges and who I left messages to about this case!

North Kansas City Hospital hired a known sexual predator named Price who drugged a woman and stuck his fingers in her vagina while maintaining an “erect penis”.
