Bell Grand Jury Experience
I've written up notes on the Bell grand jury experience, a bit too long, too entrapping in this tar pit, to post here: http://cryptome.org/jdg-gje.htm Others have told me about being warned by Robb London about perjury and self-incrimination during testimony. Lawyers say this is standard, but possibly lethal. I didn't know that you can submit a sworn statement beforehand that all questions will go unanswered to avoid self-incrimination and that the US Attorneys Manual recommends excusing a grand jury witness who does that. See the USAM on this: http://cryptome.org/grand-jury.htm
Re: Bell Grand Jury
During the grand jury questioning I was asked about only one person besides Jim Bell and the CIA-fictional "Mueller" and this was someone whose name I did not know. The name could have been as fictional as the other two. Do not send me private email or snail mail or telephone or visit. Consider me a target for indictment, hanging in the wind, a warning to others, a Kafka character, PR for LO. Do not bite "John Young" bait.

mmotyka said: I wonder what's the budget to date for chasing down one apparently not so dangerous guy? They may be creating, at great expense ( is there another way for a government to create? ), what it is they want to find. If they push him over the edge, in 5 years or so they can have a real manhunt with bullets and everything. What's the saying? 'The race is not always to the swift nor the battle to the strong, but that's the way to bet.' Good for The Department ultimately. Well, what would you expect, really? Jeff Gordon and all the others of his ilk are just a bunch of low-life, degenerate morons or they would not be working at the jobs they do. There isn't anything of the slightest redeeming value in *anything* they do -- their role in life is to create as many victims as possible, destroy as many lives as possible, make as many decent people as miserable as possible, while they suck away at the public tit, and generally burn up as many resources as possible. I was really disappointed that those 7 guys from Texas got caught so easily -- it really would have been nice if they could have wasted a politician or two or three, or at the very least greased a few more cops.
Bell Grand Jury
This morning I testified before a Grand Jury in Western Washington District Court, Seattle, which is investigating Jim Bell for interstate stalking of federal officials. The testimony concerned what I knew about alleged CIA employee Mueller and Jim's alleged gathering of personsal information about this person. I provided the Grand Jury my messages to cypherpunks about this topic which are the only documents I had to offer in response to the subpoena. AUSA Robb London conducted most of the questioning, with some questions from the jury. Robb said I was not a target of an investigation but my testimony and/or perjury could change that. I will attempt to get a transcript of my testimony and put it on Cryptome. Robb said that is doable but it will take a judge's order to release. Robb said Jim is still in evaluation to determine his fitness to represent himself. A trial date will not be set until the evaluation is completed and the judge decides. Jeff Gordon was in the grand jury suite but did not attend the hearing.
