The source of these News Releases has been the ongoing Activism and Litigation being waged by Mr. Judson Witham in Federal District Court, State District Court as well as many dozens of hearings that have been held in the Montgomery County, Commissioners Court (Witham has devoted 18 years of his life to exposing the massive Looting of Texas Based S&Ls and Banks and the subversion of the American Justice System by well connected Politicians and their Political Cronies) At this time Mr. Witham is pursuing litigation in the 359thState District Court sitting in Conroe, Texas (the Montgomery County Seat). Cause Number 96-11-04068-CV is primarily a Texas Open Records Act and Federal Freedom of information Act case. Federal, State and local Authorities, including the FDIC, FBI, RTC, Texas State Attorney General, Montgomery County Attorney as well as the Montgomery County Commissioners are currently Stonewalling Witham's Marathon Efforts to gain access to the names or identities of the Financial Institutions, Land Developers, Land Owners and Real Estate Brokers that developed, financed, and marketed the more than 60 Thousand Acres of completely Illegal, failed, substandard, WHITEWATER style subdivisions in Montgomery County. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ July 7th 1999 Intense Efforts are underway to force the FBI, Justice Dept., HUD and the State of TEXAS to reveal all of it's records on the DEBACLE behind this MASSIVE Land, Financial, Postal and Wire Fraud RACKETEERING.

Add Whitewater to the Montgomery County list of Illegal, Collapsed, never were planned to succeed Subdivisions and it would make Land Fraud Scheme No. 636 Six Hundred and Thirty SIX Valley of the Lakes would be No. 637 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Civil Rights , oh yeah sure, If You Can Afford to Buy Them No Money, No Lawyer, No Bill of Rights ? If you are not an expert in Court Rules and Procedure " The US Supreme Ct. Rule is, it is Grounds to Suspend All your Rights " Currently in this Republic, the average Citizen faces insurmountable burdens when seeking legal or Constitutional Rights in the Courts. The Maxim " NO MONEY, NO LAWYERS, NO JUSTICE" is unfortunately the reality most Americans face. The Supreme and Appellate Courts throughout the United States have mandated Special Pleading Rules for those Civil Rights Litigants who plead before the Courts on their own or PRO SE. These Special Rules are suppose to preserve the Constitutional Rights of the Legally Inarticulate, Ignorant, Handicapped or Aged by opening the Courts to Average Citizens. The Witham Family pursues this litigation Pro Se and has time and time and time again been denied his Rights as a Constitutional Litigant. You see even though their are Special Pro Se Rules, all the thousands of little technical rules of procedure, required of Lawyers, must be followed by Pro Se Litigants and that means ALL OF THEM TO. Non Lawyer Americans Have NO Rights before the Courts In Operation and in Fact the Pro Se Rules are hollow illusions of Liberty, In Fact you have ZERO (cough,choke, gag) Rights at all unless that is you are Rich and Have High Powered Lawyers. The only Rights you have is to BUY THEM IF YOU CAN AFFORD TO THAT IS !! In the Witham case, in that many hundreds of BILLIONS of DOLLARS have been LOOTED by Political Insiders and those well Connected to the DeFacto State and Federal Governments, so far the Courts in which Mr. Witham has sought access to the Governments SECRET FILES have "Court Raped" or "Court Stripped" another American Citizen for his so called Unalienable Rights of Due Process and Equal Protection of the Laws. It seems that Failure to Be a High Powered Lawyer is Grounds to Strip a Person FOR ALL THERE SO CALLED RIGHTS. To add insult to injury these same Government Entities have engaged in very intense and severe RETALIATION against Mr. Witham for his Whistle Blowing and efforts to force the Governments SECRET FILES OPEN. Witham's exposure of the Judicial Rape that occurs when you are not a High Powered Lawyer threatens the Courts and the Legal Profession with BEING EXPOSED. No Money, No Legal Training, No Constitutional Rights, No Freedom and Justice for All ??? ONE NATION UNDER GOD yeah Right ! It is in this Light that your assistance is requested. Seeing as how more than 1.1 TRILLION DOLLARS has been Looted from the American People (your tax dollars hard at work), I am requesting that this page be as widely linked and or disseminated as possible. Several Attorneys and Government Prosecutors have repeatedly warned Mr. Witham that he will be MURDERED or his LIFE DESTROYED if he refuses to stop the battle with these Government Agencies and Officials in an effort to FORCE OPEN THE GOVERNMENTS SECRET FILES. On several Occasions Witham has been FALSELY ARRESTED, FALSELY INCARCERATED, IRS AUDITED and Demonized, and is now currently being Extorted for Imaginary Deed Restriction Violations at his Home, by those loyal to the Judicial Mafia at the Montgomery County Courthouse, more retaliation for his Free Speech and Civil Rights Litigation. In the Fall of 1995 the Witham Home was treated to an effort to place White Phosphorus Flares dropped from a Military Style Helicopter on the roof of the home. Witham has every reason to believe that this was an effort to BURN HIS HOME thus destroying his efforts to continue this battle. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ "With Freedom and Justice for None" Jerry Spence where are you on this ? "only those who have big money lawyers are Blessed by the Judicial Illuminati" The recent Senate and Congressional Hearings ranging from IRS abuses, the Looting of the S&Ls and Banks, Whitewater and the Cushy Soft Campaign Money Scandals, have positively revealed for the very first time (on a major scale) that Freedom, Liberty and Equal Protection Under Law has been reduced to a commodity. This commodity, used to be known as the Bill of ("so called") Rights. The reality average American's face is really very simple, the Courts and the Lawyers that control them have created a very lucrative system of Judicial Bondage. Only those who can afford to pay, can buy their "So Called" rights. At the very highest levels of the Government (the U.S. Senate) it has been revealed that People who do not have the resources to retain High priced Legal Counsel are targeted by IRS (Treasury Dept. & Justice Department) for retaliation and abuse (Including Paula Jones). Many of the IRS Agents that gave testimony regarding these realities, with the full recognition and support of High Level Senate Members, testified from behind Screens and had their voices altered, knowing the realities of Governmental Retaliation. Suffice it to say our Courts have created Judicial, Prosecutorial, Absolute and Qualified Immunities for virtually every level of Government Official, Agent and employee. This precludes virtually all victims of Civil Rights Violations from any meaningful legal recourse.( New York Times Writer Anthony Lewis calls it Court Stripping ) Suffice it to say, on top of the Judicial Bondage, (Only the Rich have Rights) these Government Agents are shielded by C ourt Created Absolute Immunities, that amount to license to "RAPE" whistle blowers, community activists, patriot organizations, and virtually any intellectual that can see the cesspool of corruption and abuse that our Government has become. This page is dedicated to all those Patriotic enough to defend Liberty and Justice when she is under attack. When Patriot becomes a Dirty Word, and there is talk of United Nations World Governments, it is time for all Partisan American Loyalists (Lovers of Freedom, Justice and the American way) to stand shoulder to shoulder and restore the Bill of Rights. Lawyers and the Judges that love the very lucrative Lawyer controlled Judicial system need to be reminded that the Constitution was written especially for those least able to afford lawyers, that is why they are called RIGHTS. Justice for ALL is committed to putting the Rights back into the Bill of Rights. It is nothing short of Judicial Tyranny and Bondage ( Taxes on your Freedom) that have so corrupted our National Republic. Your voices and support are desperately needed. For all of you who regard these words as bunk, ask yourself, Are You Safe ?? Do you doubt the truth of my words ?? Are you sure ?? Are you afraid that speaking out against corruption in Government will result in you and yours be the target of retaliation, for defending Liberty?? Ask yourself , Exactly What did the Davidian Children do to anyone to deserve the tank and gas assault on their home?? What about their Civil Rights ?? Did the Tank Assault on their parents and other adults wanted on suspect warrants directly result in their Deaths ?? Why have the BATF, FBI, Janet Reno and Bill Clinton been afforded Absolute Immunity from Civil Recourse ? ? ? ? Is it Dangerous to be Right when the Government is Wrong ? You Betcha ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Are you Next Many, many, many Good Americans have already been attacked, simply for engagin g in activities that are supposed to be Protected by the 1stAmendment. Lets not forget the IRS agents who testified from behind screens and had their voices altered IN CONGRESS !! Do you still doubt me ? Not Knowing All the Hundreds of Court RULES and thousands of technical complexities created by Lawyers and Judges should not be Grounds to Strip Americans for their RIGHTS, Are You To Be Next ?? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ "Declare your Independence" Please Join With us Today Call for Full Accountability NOW Unite with the forces of Liberty for Reform today The Mission of this Site is to resurrect true Freedom, Equality and Justice Under Law for ALL.

You are being Lied to again International Criminals & Bank Looters profit while America's World Taxpayers Get the Bill ! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ " We Won the most Recent Battle but Not the War be ever Vigilant" We Must Curb Nafta & GATT, and Neuter the UN Rebuild America NOW JUST SAY NO TO THE WTO Fast Track Presidential Trade Authority is Un-American. It usurps the will of the People of America by precluding National debate and questioning of Foreign Treaties. The Caribbean Initiative for example which extends NAFTA to 28 Caribbean and South American Countries directly caused the Wall Street and Asian Market losses in October and November 97. The massive Banking Frauds along the Pacific Rim and in Asia were in a major way responsible as well. Most Americans know nothing of the Trade Pact details or the Treasury, Federal Reserve and IMF, World Bank Plans to have American Taxpayers send Tens of Billions to Bailout Asian and Pacific Rim Banks (The Greenspan Plan). Most Favored Nation Trading Status for China in FACT undermines every last American's standard of living, working class America you can not compete against .30 cents an hour labor PERIOD. The free access to our Markets by Oppressive Third World and Communist Economies is WRONG. Working Class Americans it's a lose, lose, lose policy for your families. While American trade Deficits to Pacific Rim Nations, China and Mexico go ballistic , the Senate and Congress want to extend so called free trade policies and the massive trade deficits ( to further destroy ordinary Americans standards of living) to more than 28 more Central and South American Countries. (the Caribbean Initiative) The Rich Corporations and International Banking Illuminati will Get Richer and Richer and the American Working Class will be come less able to compete in the Global Market Place. The Poor will get Poorer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ American Workers, Taxpayers how much more are you going to take ? Fair Trade NOT Free Trade America it is really very simple, you are being put further and further into Global ECONOMIC BONDAGE. You do remember the GIANT SUCKING SOUNDS that the Reform Party warned you about. (Check the Trade Deficit and Government Debt figures lately ? ? ) When your Presidents and National DNC and RNC Parties welcome Chinese Political Contributions, Nuclear Espionage, Communist Murders, Arms Merchants and International Drug Dealers to the White House and export your jobs in the name of International Bankers and Corporate Profits, when will you wake up ? . The IMF and World Bank treat the Pacific Rim Bank and Market Lootings as an American taxpayer responsibility to bailout, when will you wake up ? This is truly intentional World Class Global Corporate looting. It is just a matter of time before the shackles of Tyranny will end up controlling you're lives. America it is really being put further and further into ECONOMIC BONDAGE. The UN is rapidly positioning itself to take the reins of Power in America, take a good look around the World. For Christ Sake look at the Communist Chinese Arms build Up which includes an enormous Blue Water Navy and more than 17 Air Craft Carriers, they export weapons of mass destruction, Nuclear Arms Technology to Tyrants and they pump millions upon millions into Congressional Senate and Presidential Campaigns with Impunity with plenty more to come. At this time more than 900 Chinese Peoples Revolutionary Army owned businesses are operating in the Continental United States and who knows how many nuclear weapons secrets where stolen ?? The United Nations is at the speed of light becoming the New World Order's appointed not elected World Government. How many UN Officials have you ever VOTED FOR?. Do they even plan to have elections? Wake Up America. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ America Wake Up before it is to late Ten Steps to Restoring America 1. Demand the full Restoration of the Bill of Unalienable Rights, the application of the Rule of Law and the US Constitution in Government Administrations, Federal and State Courts and in all Foreign Relations. 2. Support and Demand National Referendum voting. One Man one Woman, One Vote. This will cause True Political Reforms. No longer allow outside interests and money to influence and buy local elections. 3. Demand Election Recall referendums when politicians and law enforcement figures breach the peoples trust. Only Allow those lawfully eligible to vote for issues and candidates to make contributions to those Candidates and Referendums. (No Foreign Contributions Allowed) 4. Demand impeachment reform to include the offense of Perjury. Extend the laws for lying to include all Domestic Officials &Politicians, include all Foreign Diplomats, Leaders and Foreign Powers receiving any kind Foreign Aid whatsoever. 5. Demand true Election reform. Stop allowing the Centralized power of the DNC, RNC, the United Nations or the Council on Foreign Relations to dictate who gets heard in Elections. The power of the Almighty Buck (The Root of All Evil) must not be permitted to destroy Truth, Justice and the American Way. Let all legitimate lawfully registered candidates be included and heard during the election process. Nationalize the National election debates process, in an equitable, fair and FULLY open Constitutional Manner . Why are the Poor and Under Privileged ineligible to hold office, MONEY< MONEY< MONEY that's why ?? 6. Demand the Truth, the whole Truth and Nothing but the Truth from your elected officials and leaders. Liberty is hard won and easily lost to deceit. Demand Full Access to all Unclassified and Non Privileged Government Records. Demand Freedom of Information Reform. 7. Adopt the attitude that every little bit counts. There are millions of Americans that love America and we are out here, fighting everyday to Preserve, Protect and Defend the Constitution, the Laws, Freedom, Liberty and Justice for All. We need full participation. 8. Do not accept the status quo. Those who fail to Demand their Liberty, always lose it. You must Fight for Freedom everyday or some Tyrant, Socialist, Charlatan will put you in Bondage. Support, Protect and Defend the Bill of Rights against all enemies foreign and domestic. 9. America needs every one of Her Patriots like never before. Please do your part every day no matter how small you think that part may be. 10. Pray, Pray and then Pray some more. America is truly a Nation in very serious Moral Decline. The signs are everywhere. Sexual Perversion is featured on TV during Prime Time, School officials can give your daughter and Abortion easier than aspirin, and your family privacy does not exist when your children attend public schools, the hour is Dark America very dark. The Trade Deficit and Debt Figures in America are Unprecedented in American History. When the terms Patriot, Militia and Gun owner become the Dirty words of those labeled as Whacko, it is time to be ever Vigilant, like never before ! Sons and Daughters of American Liberty it's now or never. Are you going to wimp out or Stand the Gap for Liberty? Do you just want to be a Summer Patriot, another weekend warrior, that runs when the going gets tough? Or do you really love your Country and fellow Countrymen and Women? It's time to separate the Men and Women from the Boys and Girls. Take your stand, join your hands, put your right foot forward, and stop the Decline in America, it is the least you can do for your Country.

E-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Welcome to the Web Pages on the Looting of U.S. Saving and Loans This is an UPDATE to the original S&L pages. Much of the material in these pages is coming from a series of letters I wrote to the San Jose Mercury News beginning in April 1994 in an attempt to get them to balance their reporting of Whitewater with equally vigorous reporting on the three Lootings of U.S. Savings and Loans during the Reagan and Bush administrations. The letters were based on research into the Lootings from several books written in the late 1980s and early 1990s. In addition to a request for balance and fair play, I was attempting to redress the failure of the Mainstream Media to cover the Lootings at the time they occurred. The Mainstream Media reporting on the Lootings was fragmentary, spread out over a period of several years, and never received extensive investigative reporting. There were exceptions, Pete Brewton's articles in the Houston Post that resulted in his The Mafia, CIA & George Bush in 1992 and a series of articles by three northern California writers that resulted in their Inside Job: The Looting of America's Savings & Loans published in 1989. By 1994 and the Whitewater coverage it was evident that no one in the Mainstream Media or the reading public as a whole, had read either book. Today, in 1998, the reading and viewing public in the United States are subjected to a daily barrage of material intended to entertain and indoctrinate. Information on serious subjects important to the future of this country are ignored, dumbed-down or distorted . On some subjects -- sports and sex, just to name a few -- the coverage is so great we begin to suffer from a state of mental indigestion. In vivid contrast, we have some topics the Mainstream Media simply will not cover today and did not cover in the past. The Lootings of the American Savings and Loans from 1985 to 1995 is one of these topics. On this subject, the American people are simply not Information-Poor, they are Information-Starved. As you will see in some of pages, the letters usually are based upon one or more of those unread books on the Lootings. It is still my intention to put together a time-based narrative of the specific S&Ls that were looted for the benefit of wealthy Republicans. But on re-reading some of the letters I have come to realize that their sense of immediacy and purpose would be lost when re-written in narrative form. Moreover, the preparation of the narratives will take me weeks and months of work. So I will give you the letters now, and in a few months, the narratives. (The meat now, the potatoes, or is that the potatoes, later).

As I have mentioned elsewhere, the coverage of the three SEPARATE LOOTINGS of the S&Ls in the Mainstream Media is a joke. For something that has cost the American taxpayer between $400 BILLION and $500 BILLION dollars the lack of Mainstream Media coverage is somewhat curious until you realize they believed this information was best kept from the American people. After all, the money went into the RIGHT pockets, didn't it? For something that has cost the American taxpayer between $400 BILLION and $500 BILLION dollars the lack of information from the Government on the extent of the Scam is disgraceful. With these Web Pages, I hope to accomplish three objectives. My first objective is to convince President Clinton to (1) Direct the OMB or the Treasury Department to produce a current study on the amount of money the S&L Scam has ;cost the American taxpayers to date. (2) Have Clinton open the files of the Resolution Trust Corporation and the other S&L regulatory agencies to investigation, preferably through posting on the Internet. (3) I even have some hope of convincing Janet Reno that another OIC needs to be appointed, this time determine if any people in the S&L regulatory agencies, or in her department or the FBI were part of the Scam. As far as I can determine, if a federal official had been involved in criminal acts to protect a fellow Republican (or Democrat) then the statute of limitations no longer applies. Books Fortunately a number of good reporters did write some books on the subject, and these have provided much of the information that I used in a series of letters to the San Jose Mercury News from early 1994 onwards in an attempt to get some investigative reporting into the S&L criminal activity. I received no replies to any of them. Let an aged movie star die and he or she gets front page coverage. Let the average American family be robbed of from $5,000 to $10, 000 dollars apiece and there is no story. It is also interesting that at least two of the reporters writing on the S&L Scam (Pete Brewton and Stephen Pizzo) have now been ostracized by the main stream media. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ While all of the Web Pages on the Savings and Loan Scam will be works in progress, there is a special set of Pages that should be close to the heart of anyone who wants the S&L criminals and the government officials who shielded them during the 1980s and early 1990s, identified and indicted for criminal acts against the people of the United States. Well over a thousand Savings and Loans collapsed during the Reagan and Bush administrations and were responsible for much of the billions of dollars it cost the American people. Yet I cannot locate a list of these S&Ls and the amounts of money looted from them. Therefore, one of the Web Pages is called LIST #1 - THE LIST OF THE LOOTED S&Ls AND THE AMOUNTS OF MONEY LOOTED I will need the help of all those who visit this Web Site to add the names of the looted S&Ls to the list, and the amounts of money looted from each. In addition, please provide the source of information to the E-mail address below. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The means by which the S&Ls were looted varied from S&L to S&L. There are strong indications in the literature (the books, not the Mainstream Media) that Organized Crime and the Mafia set up various swindles with cooperating S&L owners and managers to skim off millions of dollars. Then there was any number of fraudulent real estate transactions in which the S&Ls were robbed. None of these received much attention in the Mainstream Media because of the political connections of the people defrauding the S&Ls. Because much of this was ignored in the Mainstream Media, Federal and state law enforcement agencies gave a pass to much of this, and even in those cases that were criminally investigated, finally gave a pass to frauds where the money being defrauded was less than $20 million dollars (or was it $100 million dollars?) Certain people were allowed to default on loans in the tens of millions and in at least one case, in the hundreds of millions of dollars. Who were these people? What were their political affiliations? Did they make contributions to the major political parties, and if so, to which ones? Were their political contributions the reason why many of the people were never investigated by state or federal officials, or brought before federal grand juries? Then again, perhaps some of the defaulted loans were legitimate. But in any case, the Mainstream Media yawned and looked away. Therefore another Web Page is called: LIST #2 - THE LIST OF THE NAMES OF PEOPLE WHO DEFAULTED ON LARGE LOANS TO S&Ls THAT CONTRIBUTED TO THE COLLAPSE OF THESE S&Ls. As you will see, the initial list is limited to just a few names. The first looting of the S&Ls caused them to collapse. The federal S&L regulatory agencies took over the assets of the failed S&Ls. Some of these assets were real property -- buildings and land, or simply land. In disposing of this property, speculators and multi-millionaires were given first crack at acquiring the properties at cut-rate prices. Various public-advocacy groups attempted to acquire some of this property for their programs, but always seemed to lose to the well-connected speculator groups and the rich. I would be glad to create a list showing some of these things if the readers of these pages want to send me an E-mail at the address below. This list would be: LIST #3 - THE DISPOSITION OF S&L PROPERTIES TO SPECULATORS Many of the assets acquired by the S&L regulators was in the form of mortgages or other documents indicating that large sums of monies were owed to the S&Ls (and now to the American taxpayer). Some effort was made by the S&L regulatory agencies to recover some of this money, but the more aggressive lawyers and investigators involved in the recovery effort were somehow laid off or transferred to other jobs during the last year of the Bush Administration. Again the Mainstream Media yawned and looked the other way. There was one article in the Washington Post on Senate Hearings into this in August 1992, and then silence. Another policy adopted by the S&L regulatory agencies during the Bush Administration was a policy of the FORGIVENESS OF LOANS. This came to light for a day or two in October 1990 when Jeb Bush and his real estate partner were able to pay off a $4.65 million dollar mortgage for $505,000 (see below). It is indeed possible the money to pay off the mortgage came from the original $4.65 million dollar loan. Again, perhaps it was legal, but it was never examined by the Mainstream Media and continued to raise questions to this day. How many other well-connected people in this country were able to pay off their loans to defunct S&Ls for pennies on the dollar? We do not know. The Mainstream Media thought this kind of information was not necessary for the people of this country to know. I would like to put together a list of the names of those persons whose loans were FORGIVEN by the S&L regulatory agencies. If I can get some names and dollar amounts, they will be added to the single name of Jeb Bush in LIST #4 - THE FORGIVENESS OF LOANS BY THE REAGAN-BUSH S&L REGULATORY AGENCIES. Unless the readers of these pages can think of other lists that could be used to inform the American people of the GREAT S&L ROBBERY, the remainder of the Web pages in the S&L section will be devoted to specific cases on which there is some documentation. I have selected the following S&Ls and a National Bank in Washington, D.C. for study because of failure of the Mainstream Media to report on stories pertaining to their looting and because they are linked to prominent politicians, past or present. Broward Savings and Loan in Florida This should be sub-titled "How Jeb Bush and his real estate partner were able to purchase an $9 million office building in Florida on money that probably came out of the pockets of the American taxpayer." Perhaps there is more to the story than I have been able to uncover, but for some reason the Mainstream Media had absolutely no curiosity about this story and gave it VERY LIMITED coverage (one story in the New York Times, one in the Washington Post). Both of these stories referred to a new Resolution Trust Corporation policy of the FORGIVENESS OF LOANS. Evidently if you were well-connected politically and you had borrowed millions of dollars from Savings and Loans that later failed, the RTC would let you off the hook for pennies on the dollar. It was excellent way to obtain property and have the American taxpayer pay for it. Sunrise Savings and Loan, Boynton Beach, Florida During the Federal trial of the officers and employees of $1.5 billion dollar Sunrise Savings and Loan in 1989 one witness, Ronald Berkovitz, claimed that then Vice-President George Bush had told a senior S&L regulatory examiner to back off from an examination of the S&L in 1984. In his testimony, Berkovitz claimed that Bush did this in front of Robert Jacoby, the Sunrise CEO, who had gone to Bush to complain "that federal examiners were being too tough on Sunrise." Less than a year later, in July 1985, Sunrise crashed at a cost to the American taxpayers of $680 million dollars. The Berkovitz testimony was later confirmed by another official close to Sunrise. The Reagan-appointed Federal Attorney for that area of Florida made no effort to indict Berkovitz for perjury, or to question other officers and employees of Sunrise Savings and Loan about the matter. Peter Brewton, who wrote one of the best books on the Savings and Loan Scam, had to learn of the Berkovitz testimony from an obscure legal journal in the Miami area. Although the trial was covered by the Miami Herald, a Knight-Ridder newspaper, I could find nothing in the archival pulls of the Miami Herald that even touched upon this testimony. There is one quote from the Herald, published after the conviction of Jacoby and another Sunrise executive that sums up the matter nicely. "In the end, it wasn't incompetence, a poor economy or crummy luck that killed Sunrise Savings. It was criminal activity." The Miami Heral. Nov 6, 1989. Lincoln Savings and Loan in California - Part Two We all know of the first part of the story of Charles Keating and the infamous Keating Five: Senators McCain and DeConcini of Arizona, Glenn of Ohio, Cranston of California, and Riegle of Michigan. For some reason, the Mainstream Media did not cover the second part. This consisted of a meeting between the members of the San Francisco FHLBB and the senators in early 1987 when the FHLBB people evidently convinced four of the five senators that Keating was engaged in a number of criminal acts. (see the Lincoln page). The Senators were not heard of after this, and some returned their contribution. But somehow the Mainstream Media hung a maverick Republican and four Democratic senators out to dry as the Keating Five. The Keating Five and the Keating Five alone were held responsible by the Mainstream Media for all of the crimes of Charles Keating. If you read the Lincoln Savings and Loan Timeline pages, a completely different story emerges. The San Francisco FHLBB sent a criminal referral to the Reagan Justice Department on April 9, 1987 and in May 1987, recommended that Lincoln be seized at once. After Ed Gray is forced out of the FHLBB in Washington, Reagan appoints M. Danny Wall to the post. Shortly after this, and for the first time in U.S. regulatory history, a regulatory case under investigation at a regional level is transferred from the jurisdiction of the field office to the jurisdiction of the Washington FHLBB headed by M.Danny Wall. Evidently the Republican Mr. Wall was attempting to help out the Republican national committeeman from Arizona, one each Charles Keating. Besides, Wall, who wrote much of the S&L deregulation bill while he was on the staff of the senior Republican senator from Utah, Jack Garn, did not want to discourage free enterprise in the savings and loan industry. The transfer of the Lincoln investigation to Washington occurred sometime in late 1987 or early 1988. The movement of the investigation on Lincoln to Washington delayed the closure of Lincoln until February 1989. This gave Keating time to issue well over $250,000,000 in junk bonds to gullible investors in southern California. Some of the proceeds from the sale of the junk bonds evidently were used to make a $100,000 campaign contribution to the Bush presidential campaign in 1988. (The junk bond sales was the only source of income for Keating at this time.)
