Case # 07-168-01-PB

Jason Gerhard -- apparently being kept in Strafford County Jail.

Jason purchased firearms on several different occasions, and the prosecutors are maintaining that these represent first, second, third offenses, etc.

Under Title 18, Section 924 of the U.S. Code, the minimum penalty for a first offense of using or carrying a firearm in relation to a crime of violence is 5 years in addition to the sentence for the offense itself. For a second offense... here is a cut & paste from the statute:

Quote:

http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/uscode18/usc_sec_18_00000924----000-.html

(C) In the case of a second or subsequent conviction under this subsection, the person shall—

(i) be sentenced to a term of imprisonment of not less than 25 years; and

(ii) if the firearm involved is a machinegun or a destructive device, or is equipped with a firearm silencer or firearm muffler, be sentenced to imprisonment for life.

Jason is a young man and does not deserve to have his life ruined by these bastard criminal IRS and the Federal Reserve. The current threat is within. This is a travesty of Justice. They are making a criminal out of a young man who has never been involved in a crime before.

In the mean time you can also think about voting for Ron Paul. He has consistently proposed a bill in congress to ease out the IRS and mint and print our own money. Since the bastards now have all the gold he was going to back the dollar with a group of commody indexes from gold, sliver, and other metals along with wheat, oil, etc..........That way the bastards could not tank the dollar and take over.

We could get him elected if we had someone at each and every electric voting machine. It would happen if we the people put all of our energy behing it. He is not our savior, but he is the only one talking any sense like ending the war and bringing the boys home, doing away with the IRS and the Federal Reserve. That is good enough for me..............look at the other fools.

I never ever though I would ever consider voting for a republican!!!

I'm working on writing something up to the Lawyer. I'm not that much of a writer but will try my best at it. I will also include the link to that site and explain about the color of law and of it being in conflict with the common laws that are in the constitution and in the bill of rights.

i'm no lawyer but considering what the charge is it makes me wonder considering that jason was at boot camp in fort leonardwood, MO then what crime did he commit with the weapons he owned? how did he commit this crime? perhaps our legal expert ahmed could enlighten us and perhaps provide case law in support of jason which in turn will be provided to jason's lawyer.

I did get a draft letter made and I admit I am not much of a writer so if I can show more people what I wrote to see how it looks. I did get into detail about both the IRS case, the guns and of being on Jason's side.

I also explain how I feel about it all. I can then use a similar template for Danny, Reno and Bob.

Judge jumps on Brown supporter

By KATHRYN MARCHOCKI

Concord – A federal judge yesterday rebuked a 22-year-old New York man charged with helping arm convicted tax evaders Edward and Elaine Brown with military-style and armor-piercing weapons for their planned confrontation with law enforcers.

"This is a particularly heinous thing to bring a .50-caliber weapon up to the Browns' residence and leave it there. Outrageous!" U.S. District Court Judge James R. Muirhead said, noting the weapon's lethal capacity.

Muirhead ordered Jason Gerhard held without bail pending trial - a blow to the defense's claim that Gerhard was simply a college student "trying to express himself" who visited the Browns's Plainfield home to interview them for articles he later published in his college newspaper.

We all know whose side the judge is on so how does this surprise us in any way, shape or form? the browns have stated repeatedly that they will not use violence nor have they committed any acts that could be misconstrues as violent against the law enforcement community so considering that the judge knows the entire facts about the situation, how can he actually take this course of action unless he is on the side of the ptb. jason hasn't committed any crimes and since the defense has proof that jason interviewed the browns then the jury gets to hear that proof.

Judge Magistrate Muirhead is clearly biased and needs to be recused. He's made up his mind about the verdict in advance of the trial.

I was reading about a case involving the Georgia Militia in 1996. Two members were arrested and were accused of having bomb-making materials in their possession. The problem was that much of this material was buried, and the prosecution's case relied heavily on informers. The defense claimed they had been set up by provocateurs and that evidence was planted.

Nevertheless, a jury found them guilty.

"Agent says Starr wasn't present when bomb parts were buried"
"Magistrate delays ruling to examine evidence more closely"
By Audrey Post

The Macon Telegraph

A federal agent testified Monday that the founder of a Georgia militia group was not present when alleged pipe-bomb components were buried on his property, and the agent admitted that he did not know for sure whether Robert Edward Starr III was aware the materials were there.

Agent Stephen W. Gillis of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms also acknowledged that Starr's co-defendant, William James "Jimmy" McCranie, had said, "I don't want to know anything about it" and walked away when the government's informant was talking about building bombs.

Starr, 34, and McCranie, 30, were in federal court Monday afternoon for a
preliminary hearing on charges they conspired to possess unregistered explosive devices.

At the end of the three-hour hearing, U.S. Magistrate Judge Richard L. Hodge of Albany delayed ruling on whether to send the case to a grand jury, saying he wanted to examine the evidence more closely. Hodge presided over the hearing because the federal magistrate based in Macon, Claude W. Hicks Jr., attends the same church as Starr.

Part of that evidence is a tape-recording of a short-wave radio program on which Starr spoke, that was broadcast two nights before the defendants were arrested. A homemade tape of the program was made available to the judge until a certified copy arrives from the Nashville, Tenn., radio station that broadcast it.

On that radio show, Starr called in and said he was getting ready to expose a government set-up against him. He said FBI agents had informed him they had received an anonymous telephone call threatening Starr's life, and that's why he was going public.

The ATF's Gillis confirmed the FBI said it had received the death threat against Starr, but he said there was no connection between Starr's calling the radio show and ATF's decision to get the warrants against Starr and McCranie the next day.

"Mr. Starr was arrested not because he intended to build those bombs, but because he intended not to," Starr's attorney, Nancy Lord said. "He intended to expose the government's confidential informants."

'Agent provocateurs'

Starr and McCranie have been jailed since their April 26 arrests, when agents seized chemicals, pipes and other materials from two parcels of property in Crawford County, one where McCranie lives and the other on land Starr owns.

Last week, U.S. District Court Judge Wilbur D. Owens Jr. denied bond for the two men, saying the charges were "serious offenses involving allegations of manufacturing explosive devices which are capable of ... destruction of persons or property."

As more than 50 people packed the courtroom Monday, some leaning against the back wall, defense attorneys used what is often a quick, routine proceeding to attack the core of the government's case.

"This is beyond entrapment," Lord said. "It is manufactured evidence. The materials were put on Mr. Starr's property without his knowledge."

"The whole evidence upon which this case was based was fraudulent," she said.

Lord contended that the government's confidential informants were actually "agent provocateurs," instigators sent to infiltrate and set up the 112th Battalion of the Militia-at-Large for the Republic of Georgia.

Lord said it was the "agent provocateurs" who actually buried the pipes and chemicals on Starr's property, which made it easy for agents to find them when they got a search warrant.

"You went right to it. You didn't have to search the whole 16 acres, did you?" Lord asked. Gillis conceded agents did not.

Convictions Obtained for Georgia Republic Militia Members
Abstracted from the Macon Telegraph, Internet sources, Militia Watchdog sources.

Just say no to pipe bombs was the message a middle Georgia jury sent to three militia members on November 6, when it arrived at guilty verdicts on charges of possession of unregistered pipe bombs and conspiracy to build them, ending a case that had galvanized the militia movement nationwide since the militiamen were arrested last April.

The jury found the defendants not guilty on several additional charges, but they could still face 17 to 20 years in prison each, according to federal sentencing guidelines.

Defendants Robert Starr III and James McCrainie were arrested last spring amid great publicity, largely caused by an erroneous report that the suspects had plotted to bomb the 1996 Atlanta Olympics; a third suspect, Troy Spain, turned himself in later. The defendants, members of the 112th Georgia Republic Militia (there are not 111 other units), were charged with various conspiracy and weapons charges largely involving attempts to build a stockpile of pipe bombs.

The trial itself proved more damaging to McCrainie, Starr and Spain than it did to the government. McCrainie admitted building a pipe bomb, while Starr's voice was caught on tape discussing the need to build pipe bombs and other subjects that damaged his defense, as was Spain's. The government informants, Kevin and Danny Barker, held up relatively well to fierce questioning, and the combination of the Barkers' performances and the tape recordings probably made the difference in the jury's deliberations.

I wrote a comment in the Union Paper which was of course pro Ed and Elaine and the four supporters. I never expected them to print it and they did not. The judges remarks have prejudiced the case and I believe he should recuse himself. When a Judge expresses his opinion such as the Browns case was a 'totally baseless view of taxation' I refer Judge Muirhead to just one case and that is IRS Vs. Kugling where she was found "NOT GUILTY." I ALSO REFER HIM TO THE REMARKS OF JUDGE McCALLA WHEN HE WAS BEING PRESSED, AFTER THE JURY VERDICT AND THEY HAD LEFT THE COURT, BY US PROSECUTER MURPHY THAT JUDGE McCALLA TELL HER SHE HAD TO FILE AND PAY HER INCOME TAXES........IT WAS A RESOUNDING ......"I DON'T WORK FOR THE IRS." WE ASK YOU JUDGE TO DO THE SAME STOP WORKING FOR THE IRS!

With reference to his and rants regarding Jason's trumpted up charges "THIS IS A PARTICULARLY HEINOUS THING TO BRING A .50 CALIBER WEAPON UP TO THE BROWNS,.....OUTRAGEOUS," One has to note that he uses the words particularly henious and not illegal thing to bring a .so caliber weapon up to the Browns. THIS IS A BLATENT ATTEMPT BY JUDGE MURHEAD TO TRY THE CASE IN THE PRESS AND THE COURT OF PUBLIC OPINION. JUDGE MUIRHEAD YOUR STATEMENTS ARE OUTRAGEOUS. WHAT THE IRA AND FEDERAL RESERVE HAS BEEN ILLEGALLY DOING FOR ALMOST 100 YEARS IS FRAUD AND ILLEGAL AND YOU KNOW IT. SHAME, SHAME ON YOU AND YOUR ILK.

DEMAND THAT JUDGE MUIRHEAD RECUSE HIMSELF BECAUSE OF HIS STATEMENTS. HOW DARE YOU TAKE IT UPON YOURSELF TO RUIN A DECENT YOUNG MAN'S LIFE. HAVE YOU NO SHAME! WE DO NOT WANT AND WILL NOT TOLLERATE THIS TYPE OF BEHAVIOR FROM THE BENCH. YOU ARE CONVICTED OF BEING A JUDGE WHO ABUSES HIS DISCRETION................RECUSE YOURSELF IMMEDICATELY!

It is obvious that this Judge has no intention of allowing a fair trial for the four Ed and Elaine Supporters either.

Now I know why Vermont wants to sececed from the union............because of it's next door neighbor New Hampshire, a pathethic police state with a corrupted judicial system and Judge Muirhead is just one example of that corrupt behavior.

I am going to create a new web page. Please tell me what the name of the news media anyone has tried to comment or write to and have not gotten any response or if your comments never went through.

I'm going to have the move my main site page around so this could break the site link for a little while.

Also, there might be the possibility that my site will not be able to be spidered by some web bots because of the type of security I have put in place from the 19th of this month. There will be some IP's that will be blocked and this I am not able to help. I wish I didn't have to resort to the type of security which I running but I don't have much of a choice now. It wouldn't surprise me one bit if I am on some list as an "enemy" I don't fly planes, too poor to afford a car and won't be going to any federal buildings in the near future so I would say that things are peachy on my side and I won't be halted anytime soon from travel, unless walking gets taxed, I'll be alright.

I'll work on the new page. List the news outlets who are biased and censored and include comments which should had been displayed and also of myself writing back to these places in disgust. I'm not worried about being sued since there is nothing that can be had from me to lose. I have no assetts, no real possessions, I'm on disability, nothing to my name so I say good luck for them trying.

Yeah, and the ADL and the SPLC are already on them accusing them of "racism" because they linked to a southern separatist website. Fewer and fewer people are being fooled by those two organizations.

Someone pointed out that if a federal agent is killed by one of the weapons supplied by Jason or the others, they could be be charged with capital murder.

Basically, once you're in their custody, they can do anything with you.

I hope you are wrong Ahmed. I know that right now it looks really bad. But we have the military now refusing to follow the neocon bastards' covert orders. Go and read the articles about the B-52 Bombers and the nukes that were headed to Iran at oregontruthalliance.org.

Just last week the Judiciacl system met in New JersEy. Evidently they want to take a look at how they check on themselves. I have been researching this and have not come up with anything yet.

We just need to be really diligent and slap them with malfeasence and/or corruption every chance we get! They were meeting for a reason .......and I think they are a little scared right now! They can not control the information that is getting out on the net! They are trying to and maybe someday they will. But as of now we are winning the infowars.

And, yes, once they get you in their system they can make your life miserable. I am confident that we will win this and the reason is that people usually react when it hits their pocketbook/billfold! It is as simple as that.
