Complaints filed by Dr. Joseph Zernik provide detailed evidence of fraud by Los Angeles justice system parties in collution relative to the false imprisonment/ hospitalization of FIP Attorney Richard Fine and large-scale false imprisonments of many thousands of people in LA. Human rights defenders nationally and internationally are urged to file similar Complaints.
Dr. Zernik's stated that his complaints included, but were not limited to:
- a) Judge Davis Yaffe and Clerk John A Clark of the Los Angeles Superior Court - "who conducted the "off the record" March 4, 2009 9:00-11:05 am sentencing proceeding in Marina v LA County (BS109420)";
- b) The Sheriff's Warrant Detail - "who conducted on March 4, 2009 11:05 am warrantless arrest";
- c) An Unnamed Sheriff Deputy - "who operated [on] March 4, 2009 12:23 pm a falsely registered booking terminal - under the no- longer-existent San Pedro Municipal Court";
- d) Sheriff's Bureau - "that insisted on repeatedly providing false responses October 2009 - January 2010 in response to requests for California Public Records, and refused to produce the California Public Records for the arrest and booking of Richard Fine", and
- e) John H Clark, MD - Chief Medical Officer of the Sheriff's Bureau - "who allowed false hospitalization with no medical justification for almost a year - March 4, 2009 to this date as a cover up for false imprisonment of Richard Fine."
"All these parties colluded in the false hospitalization of Richard Fine. However, as detailed in the complaints, the evidence showed large-scale false imprisonments in Los Angeles County, going back at least a decade to the Rampart -scandal (1998-2000), whose victims - thousands of Rampart-FIPs (Falsely Imprisoned Persons) were never set free," stated Dr. Zernik yesterday.
Dr. Zernik reported that his Complaints (linked below) were filed with the Sheriff Department, the Los Angeles County Ombudsman and Supervisor Michael Antonovich.
Zernik persists for FIP justice
All three offices were reluctant to accept such complaints according to Dr. Zernik.
"I had to insist that the complaints be accepted as such (e.g. not concerns, not requests, but Complaints). The Sheriff's Department would not provide any written response absent inquiry by Office of Supervisor Antonovich. Office of the Ombudsman first claimed that it had no authority to review complaints against the Sheriff's Department, and later - that it had no authority to review complaints that had no "Complaint Number" issued by the Sheriff's Department itself.
"The Office of Supervisor Antonovich was helpful in the past. However, now that we are getting to the crux of the matter, staff in his office suggested that I would be better off suing the Sheriff - as if we, who live in Los Angeles County, California, had access to honest courts."
Dr. Zernik is urging other human rights defenders to file complaints, offering to justice advocates permission to "simply copy [his] compalints and add your cover letters on top, or cut and paste as you deem fit."
Dr. Zernik recommends that the Complaints be filed with:
a) The Sheriff's Department:"Sheriff's Headquarters Bureau," shb@lasd.org,"Alvarado Ana M" AMAlvara@lasd.org>, webemail@lasd.org
b) The Los Angeles County Ombudsman: "Stephanie Maxberry," ombudla@ombuds.lacounty.gov
c) Your LA Supervisor:
1st District: Gloria Molina molina@bos.lacounty.gov
2nd District Mark Ridley-Thomas seconddistrict@bos.lacounty.gov
"Obviously, we who live in Los Angeles County, California, under extreme deprivation of Human Rights pursuant to ratified International Law, would be grateful for any others, in the United States or abroad, who would join us in such complaints and petitions, stated Dr. Zernik yesterday.
