Switzerland Declines Roman Polanksi Extradition

Roman Polanski

After taking film director, Roman Polanski, into custody, the Swiss government has changed its mind about extraditing him to the United States on child sodomy charges. Polanksi sodomized a 13-year-old girl he plied with wine, in conduct that is reprehensible.

The Judiciary Report hoped the extradition would proceed, as Polanksi's crimes are very serious. He needs to be brought to justice within the scope of the law.

U.S. President Barack Obama

The Swiss cited a flaw in the Obama Administration's extradition request (refusal to present testimony), as Jamaica previously did regarding alleged drug dealer, Christopher Michael Coke, also known as Dudus (illegal wiretaps), who was later sent to America, after the U.S. President, via the State Department, unleashed a hateful, disproportionate torrent of abuse against the Caribbean country.

However, one has to wonder, will the Obama Administration take the bully route with Switzerland, trying to destroy its government and economy, as it did with Jamaica regarding Dudus or did the President's confidence in the aforementioned matter, spring from Jamaica being a small island nation.

U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder

Other nations such as France (Hans Peterson), have declined extradition requests, yet were not met with the sheer abusiveness Jamaica was ladled with by the Obama Administration, which makes it all look very personal. Once again, it affirms the Judiciary Report's position, the Dudus extradition, was meant to put the Jamaican government in such a terrible quandary, to create such division, it would topple it and the economy by wreaking havoc on tourism and trade (visa revocations).

However, the Obama Administration didn't bank on 76 people dying and further tarnishing the image of his already beleaguered administration, currently facing the wrath of the American people on a number of issues, from overspending inflating the national deficit to unemployment.

Dudus Extradited To America

Alleged Jamaican drug suspect, Christopher Michael Coke, also known as Dudus, was extradited to America yesterday. He was apprehended by the Jamaican government at a security check point, on his way to turning himself in at the U.S. Embassy, driven by Reverend Al Miller.

The Jamaican military and police removed him from the car and placed him under arrest. Dudus waived his right to extradition and was then turned over to the U.S. government, who were waiting with a helicopter to transport him to New York in the United States of America .

Dudus initially wished to fight the extradition and became a fugitive. However, yesterday he waived his right to extradition, which could have allowed him to stay in Jamaica and exhaust the appeals process for 2-3 years, delaying his removal from the island.

After waiving his right to extradition, he formally apologized to the Jamaican people for all the turmoil and bloodshed his extradition caused. The U.S. Department of Justice also owes the Jamaican people an apology for how the matter was handled, the DOJ sponsored defamation of the island and for brushing off warnings there could be many casualties, with 76 people later dying. However, they simply did not care, as it was a failed attempt to overthrow the Jamaican government and destabilize the economy.

Tunnels To Trains

Drug Tunnel in America leading to Mexico

The Jamaican government recently discovered drug tunnels running from the one time Tivoli Gardens stronghold of Christopher Michael Coke, also known as "Dudus" who was taken into custody yesterday, for extradition to the United States on drug and gun charges.

Similar tunnels have been found in other nations, such as America and Mexico, hollowed out on the orders of drug kingpins. World governments should seize drug tunnels and turn them into something useful, such as transportation ventures, namely underground trains (with modifications). Turn that negative into a positive for the state (nation).

Dudus Turns Himself In To Jamaican Police

Attorney General Eric Holder, head of the Department Of Justice

Jamaican Drug suspect, Christopher Michael Coke A/K/A "Dudus" turned himself into police on the island, as he is wanted for extradition to the United States. Thank God, as it will put an end to the manhunt and national distress on the island. As mentioned on the site previously, people in Jamaica were imploring him to surrender.

The U.S. government publicly labeled "Dudus" one of the most dangerous criminals in the world, formally demanded his extradition using shoddy, unlawful wiretaps and got 73 people on the island killed, including police and military.

However, as the Observer newspaper in Jamaica pointed out recently, the Department of Justice, only offered a $20,000 reward for him. That is a paltry sum, in light of the Department of Justice's allegations.

The U.S. government has referred to Osama Bin Laden as one of the most dangerous criminals in the world as well, yet offered a significantly higher reward of $20,000,000 for information leading to his capture.

Therefore, to class "Dudus" as one of the world's worst, yet offer so little reward money, contradicts the U.S. government's claims regarding this man.

"Dudus"

I'm not stating "Dudus" is innocent, as I have strong doubts about that, based on what I have read. If he is innocent as he claims, he can plead his case in court, as the Judiciary Report maintained from the beginning. But one has to wonder about the disparities regarding the Department of Justice's claims in light of the relatively low reward.

The true motivation for the "Dudus" extradition was upending the Jamaican government and throwing the nation into chaos and financial despair. As if the financial crisis of 2008 that began in America, thanks to the FBI and SEC's criminal negligence and corruption and spread to the rest of the world, did not cause enough devastation in the Caribbean as well, Obama has topped up the damage (tourism). But now that he is in custody, recovery can begin.

In closing, next time listen to people when they state innocents could die if you handle government matters incorrectly. 76 people are dead because of this fiasco and it is a black mark on your presidency that will not be forgotten.

Jamaican Government Cracking Down On Kingpin's Former Stronghold

Jamaican authorities making arrests in search for drug suspect wanted in America

The Jamaican government has been cracking down on the former stronghold of drug suspect, Christopher Michael Coke A/K/A Dudus, who is wanted in America for drug trafficking.

Two weeks ago, the Jamaican government stormed Tivoli Gardens, the small neighborhood in the nation's capital Kingston, that Dudus had taken over, in the manner of the movie character "Nino Brown" from the film "New Jack City."

The Jamaican government arrested 500 people during that raid. This week, they have arrested an additional 205 people and confiscated 70 more weapons.

Cops say they've seized CCTV system in Tivoli

Thursday, June 17, 2010 - A closed-circuit television (CCTV) system that the police believe was used to monitor several entrances to the West Kingston community of Tivoli Gardens is now being checked by the police to find out where the footage was saved.

According to head of the Major Investigations Task Force Assistant Commissioner Les Green, the CCTV system was found in the area of Tivoli called Java where fugitive Christopher 'Dudus' Coke had his office...

Police said that several rounds of ammunition and gun magazines were also seized...

The police high command on Monday placed a bounty of US$20,000 for the capture of Coke, the former gang leader of Tivoli Gardens...

Police have since reported that they found over 70 guns during searches in Tivoli Gardens and surrounding communities.

Jamaican PM Suing ABC News For Defamation

Bruce Golding

Jamaican Prime Minister, Bruce Golding, has initiated legal action against ABC News, stating they have defamed him in a widely disseminated broadcast, accusing him of being associated with drug fugitive, Christopher Michael Coke A/K/A "Dudus."

The FBI/DOJ's poorly handled extradition request for the drug suspect, has resulted in the deaths of 73 Jamaican police officers, military and civilians.

ABC has been left stranded in the lurch, as the anonymous U.S. State Department source they cited in their article, has abandoned them, as it has been reported in the Jamaica Observer newspaper, "US State Department officials later denied knowledge of such a document saying instead they were working with the Jamaican prime minister in crime prevention in the island."

If Golding files suit against ABC News in Britain, as the article was carried there as well, it will be much easier to prove damages, due to the fact libel laws in the United Kingdom are more favorable to Plaintiffs. Many high profile people in a variety of cases, have filed suit in Britain as a result.

Bruce legal action over ABC 'Dudus' story

Wednesday, June 09, 2010 - LAWYERS representing Prime Minister Bruce Golding have written to United States-based news network ABC seeking redress for a recent newscast referring to Golding as a ‘criminal affiliate’ of Christopher ‘Dudus’ Coke.

"It is being pursued as we speak," Information Minister Daryl Vaz told journalists at today’s post cabinet press briefing held at Jamaica House. Vaz added that a statement was issued by the prime minister this week and legal action was being pursued by him “on a personal basis”...

Golding subsequently dismissed the ABC report as "extremely offensive", and charged that efforts to link him personally with the alleged drug kingpin, were “clearly part of a conspiracy to undermine the duly elected government of Jamaica”...

73 Dead In Jamaica After U.S. DOJ Extradition Demand

Jamaican authorities in front of a mural of Prime Minister Bruce Golding

Amnesty International has stated it seeks to investigate the number of deaths in the small Tivoli Gardens community of Kingston, Jamaica, in the wake of the U.S. extradition demand, for drug suspect Christopher Michael Coke A/K/A "Dudus." The Obama administration has shown Jamaica great ill-will in how it went about it, ignoring numerous warnings and pleas from community activists, that improper handling of the extradition, would result in casualties to innocent people.

Thus far, 70 people have died, among them Jamaican soldiers, police and civilians, as the island's authorities attempt to extract fugitive, Christopher Michael Coke, for extradition to the United States of America.

U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder

To put pressure on the Jamaican government to achieve the extradition, which the island's reigning political party disputed, due to U.S. Attorney General, Eric Holder, submitting "illegal wiretaps" as evidence, the Obama administration began harassing law abiding Jamaican-American citizens in America, in the hope they would complain to their family, friends, business associates and the government in Jamaica, to extract and send Christopher Michael Coke to America.

Wealthy and middle class Jamaican businesspeople, who do not live in America, also saw their visas vindictively cancelled by the Obama administration, for no reason and without explanation, in acts that not only hurt the Jamaican economy, but the U.S. one as well, as these are men and women from the island that visit on regular business trips and buy American products in bulk, then ship them back to Jamaica for sale in the marketplace.

This form of trade represents millions to the U.S. economy and the Jamaican one as well. These businesspeople began to complain to the government and publicly regarding the unprovoked mistreatment, as they have nothing to do with Christopher Michael Coke.

Mr. Holder, with his Billy Dee mustache, consistently runs amok in Congress. The Judiciary Report is confident, Billy Dee Williams, would have carried himself better in Congress and not incurred constant brain freezes when questioned by senators.

Mr. Holder experiencing a brain freeze in Congress

The majority of the island does not support the drugs and violence associated with these gangs, such as the one Christopher Michael Coke runs and want it gone from the country. However, it is not as easy as it looks, which is evident by the number of ongoing deaths in America's extradition bid for Christopher Michael Coke.

Usually, when two world governments have a dispute, they kick out diplomats and ambassadors as a negative gesture, until things are resolved to their satisfaction. They do not cancel the visas of businesspeople that have nothing to do with the dispute and harass and abuse naturalized, innocent citizens in their nation from the foreign nation.

The Obama administration has set a new low, which has cost the U.S. economy money. But with the way he excessively spends U.S. taxpayer money, Obama clearly is not concerned with the economy.

Most Jamaicans do not even know Christopher Michael Coke and similar gangs personally, as they operate in apart of Kingston, that is the equivalent of the U.S. projects in New York or Compton, California.

As a matter of fact, when the U.S. Department of Justice, on Eric Holder's instruction, went public with the extradition request for Christopher Michael Coke, it marked the first time many Jamaicans in Jamaica, America, Britain, Canada and other countries, heard of him. He is not a towering figure all over Jamaica. He is well known in the particular downtown ghetto he ensconced himself. A Nino Brown, if you will ("New Jack City").

For the Obama administration to label Jamaica a "narco-state" and attempt to paint a horrendous, unbalanced portrait of the island in the press, is the U.S. equivalent of stating, every American supports the Crips, Bloods and MS-13 street gangs, who are actively engaging in massive gun, human and drug trafficking. At the end of the day, most Americans do not personally know or condone the conduct of the Crips, Bloods and MS-13 street gangs.

In the Obama administration attempting to improperly extract Christopher Michael Coke, via "illegal wiretaps" and by harassing and mistreating law abiding Jamaicans and Jamaican-Americans who have nothing to do with him, damaging the Jamaican economy, while defaming the entire island through the U.S. government's mouthpiece, the Associated Press, the Jamaican government was pushed into a terrible corner and had to use the limited resources available in trying to apprehend the suspect.

The Jamaican police and military have been fighting against a street gang that obtained weapons and amour piercing bullets from America, that can penetrate police officer's bulletproof vests and other protective gear (Jamaica does not manufacture weapons).

In spite of the fact the Jamaican government sent buses to the Tivoli Gardens ghetto, begging civilians to come out before they go in, via a bid to extract Christopher Michael Coke, some did and some did not. Some stayed with their properties underestimating the danger, while others stayed out of fear, as they were told by the gang if they go on the buses, they should leave their house keys and not return.

Thus far, 70 civilians, police officers and soldiers are dead. 500 people have been arrested, but Christopher Michael Coke, who is clearly in hiding somewhere, remains a fugitive. The government has been imploring him for days to turn himself in.

The Obama Administration forced this terrible scenario and dozens of Jamaicans have died for it and it's not like the U.S. Justice Department and President Obama didn't know, as they were warned months in advance by this site and community activists (See a small sampling of the Judiciary Report's website statistics below, revealing the U.S. DOJ and FBI regularly read this website). I hope the Justice Department and FBI are happy now (sarcasm).

Therefore, what would Amnesty International have had the Jamaican government do, in the face of the bullying, threats and abuse from the Obama Administration, which has affected innocent Jamaican-Americans in the United States and Jamaicans that live on the island permanently, who have nothing to do with Christopher Michael Coke and his gang?

For the Obama administration to have forced this issue in such a manner, barking at the Jamaican government to get the suspect and get him now or else, when thousands of fugitives in America have not been apprehended, as it is not as easy as it looks, is hypocritical.

Look how many people the U.S. FBI, ATF and SWAT have searched for in America for years and have been unsuccessful in apprehending. Yes, they have apprehended many, but thousands of criminals still remain at large. That is the nature of police work. You do what you can and accept your successes and defeats.

The Jamaican Prime Minister, Bruce Golding, is the head of the Jamaica Labour Party, which is not even my family's political party, as my relatives belong to the opposition, the People's National Party, but at the end of the day, all politics aside, as a human being, I denounce the Obama Administration's poor handling of this extradition, as they were warned well in advance this could happen, but forced these innocent casualties, via arrogance in how they demanded this guy and began abusing innocent Jamaicans as the way to extradite him, which is wrong.

If the tables were turned and another world government anywhere in the world, did that to the Obama administration, via abusing innocent Americans who did no wrong, he would be outraged, denounce it and label said conduct human rights abuses.

60 Dead In Jamaica After U.S. DOJ Extradition Demand

U.S. President Barack Obama

This is an update on yesterday's article 31 Dead In Jamaica After U.S. DOJ Extradition Demand. The body count of Jamaican soldiers and civilians has jumped to 60 people dead, as they tried to apprehend drug suspect, Christopher Michael Coke, also known as "Dudus."

I was told the Jamaican government gave civilians an opportunity to evacuate the area in question, by sending buses to the impoverished community of Tivoli Gardens in Kingston, which is similar in gang activity to the U.S. city of Compton, California, but much smaller in size.

This was done before the police and military went in, via a bid to retrieve "Dudus" for extradition to the United States. As with evacuations regarding hurricanes, fires and other natural disasters all over the world, some people left and some stayed with their properties.

The Jamaican military and police then went in. 500 people were extracted and arrested as associates of "Dudus" in a real live Scarface styled showdown. While the authorities have made leeway, some officers have died during the gun battle, via gang members that used amour piercing bullets.

U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder

U.S. Attorney General, Eric Holder, who botched this extradition by submitting what has been called "illegal wiretaps" as evidence and disregarded warnings from political activists that people could die if this case was handled improperly, has yet to comment on the fruits of his carelessness.

Soldiers, police officers and civilians have died, Mr. Holder, because you deviated from the international standard in these matters. During previous administrations, Jamaica extradited numerous people to the United States and it did not devolve into soldiers, police and civilians dying.

You wanted to show the world you are a big dog, with emphasis on the word dog - albeit one who doesn't read - and now you have, but not in a good way and here's hoping you can wash the blood of the innocent off your hands.

31 Dead In Jamaica After U.S. DOJ Extradition Demand

U.S. President Barack Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder

UPDATE @1:41PM - 60 People Are Confirmed Dead

Mentally deficient Attorney General, Eric "I Don't Read The Law" Holder, who heads up President Barack Obama's Department Of Justice, was warned repeatedly by community activists and columns such as this one, regarding the extremely poor handling of an extradition request, for suspected drug dealer, Christopher Michael Coke, in that it could cost innocent people their lives.

Holder, acting on Obama's behalf, used what has been labeled "illegal wiretaps" to submit the extradition request. As such, it was heavily disputed, leading to the standoff we see today, leaving 24 police officers and seven civilians dead yesterday, which is what the Judiciary Report warned two months ago would happen.

And what was the Obama administration's response to the deaths of the police officers and civilians, "It is the Jamaican government's responsibility to apprehend Mr. Coke."

What a vile message of condolence to the families of the civilians and innocent police officers that died trying to fulfill your botched, poorly handled extradition request, Mr. Holder. But to you their deaths were acceptable collateral damage. Neither you or Mr. Obama would find it so if it were your family members laying in the morgue.

The Obama administration's ongoing abuse of innocent Jamaican-American citizens, who have complained of being arrested for simple traffic offenses that would normally not warrant such action (a harassment technique American doctor Steven Hatfill exposed as an FBI tactic) along with other forms of harassment and canceling the visas of Jamaican business people buying U.S. goods to sell on the island has continued.

It is being described as a means of putting the squeeze on the Jamaican government during the extradition and it is ugly and un-American. Hundreds of thousands of law-abiding Jamaican-Americans voted for Obama in 2008 and they should not make that mistake again in 2012.

Your family in Kenya would be so proud of you abusing innocent black people (that have nothing to do with the suspect in question) to settle a political vendetta (not). As the first black President, I expected you to conduct yourself in a manner more appropriate and equitable to all, but you have shown your true colors.

This is not against the American people, but the Obama administration, as they were warned to be careful in how they went about this, yet they so poorly and carelessly handled it in a manner that needlessly created a situation that has left 31 people dead.

I don't believe the Obama administration is about law and order for one second, otherwise 99% of the individuals that committed felonies, which created the U.S. financial crisis of 2008 that went global, harming the rest of the world, wouldn't be walking around free and fleecing more Americans and international citizens.

Madonna and co in Hollywood would not be walking around free either, after engaging in well-documented illegal wiretapping, criminal hacking, computer abuse, emailed death threats and threats of violence and attempted murder, whilst stealing AIDS and cancer cure money, via stealing copyrights, meant to go towards producing cures. The Judiciary Report is 1000% certain, significant breakthroughs would have been implemented already.

FBI Director Robert S. Mueller

But then again, there is a rather telling rumor going around the international community that FBI Director Robert S. Mueller took a $1,000,000 bribe to suppress the Madonna case, to facilitate criminal copyright infringement, which is why Hollywood continues to steal from my preexisting, Library of Congress registered, copyrighted catalog, worth billions. As the Judiciary Report's exclusives have proven true repeatedly, you can be assured the site is telling the truth regarding Mueller (and everything else).

You did so to the detriment of millions of AIDS and cancer sufferers everywhere and when all is said and done, history will not record it well.

Barack Obama Wiretapping Heads Of State

U.S. President Barack Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder

According to reports, U.S. President, Barack Obama, has been acting as the general manager of the world by wiretapping other heads of state in the international community, with no international mandate to do so. The recent Michael Coke extradition bid in Jamaica has brought these allegations to light.

There are a few hundred nations in the world. Show of hands, how many heads of state want Obama eavesdropping on their calls and doing what he wishes with the contents? It would be safe to state the answer to that is zero, which is what Mr. Obama is looking like for doing such a thing.

In light of this conduct, do other heads of state have permission to illegally wiretap all your calls, Mr. Obama and with the dirty dealings that go on in Washington (see the Abramoff scandal, among others) those calls would not be pretty.

No nation is perfect and all could use improvement, but wiretapping other heads of state is debased and dishonorable. You are not God. Therefore, you are not to be privy to everyone's conversations.

Furthermore, God would have solved the financial crisis already...which is something Mr. Obama could be working on instead of eavesdropping on foreign heads of state's phone calls. Unemployment is soaring in America, while Obama spends his time reading other people's telephone call transcripts courtesy of the FBI and NSA.

Jamaica To Extradite Drug Suspect

U.S. President Barack Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder

The Jamaican government has agreed to extradite drug suspect, Christopher "Dudus" Coke and a manhunt is currently underway, which could result in a massive standoff, as police attempt to apprehend him in Jamaica. The case has caused turmoil in Jamaica, as the Jamaican government contends, the U.S. Department of Justice, headed by Obama's reckless Attorney General, Eric Holder, illegally wiretapped Coke's mobile phone, in a bid to gain evidence for an extradition.

Many Jamaicans have complained, when the extradition hit a snag, due to the illegal wiretaps being rejected as evidence, as retaliation, the U.S. government began arresting Jamaicans in America for the least little thing, such as traffic violations which were previously not considered arrest worthy offenses, canceling the visas of Jamaicans in America and denying Jamaican businesspeople entry into the United States for standard business trips.

U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder

The Obama administration discriminatorily and unjustly reasoned the way to get what it wanted in this case was to punish innocent Jamaicans that have nothing to do with the Coke case and do not support the accused, when hundreds of thousands of lawful Jamaican citizens in America voted for him in large numbers during the 2008 election.

Already Mr. Holder's poor handling of the extradition, has cost a Jamaican civilian her life, which is what the Judiciary Report feared would happen. But such incompetence is to be expect from a man that went into the U.S. Congress as the nation's top lawyer, condemning the unjust Arizona immigration law, without even reading it first, causing great embarrassment to himself and all associated with him.

Jamaican Prime Minister Bruce Golding

Two months ago, the Judiciary Report warned that Mr. Holder engaging in such severe criminal negligence and violations of international law, in demanding the Coke extradition using illegal wiretaps, would lead to tragedy and that is exactly what has happened this week.

The Judiciary Report also previously expressed, law and order is important and all criminals should be held accountable, but authorities must follow the rule of law. Mr. Holder didn't and a Jamaican woman paid for it with her life this week.

For weeks people were also stating, if Prime Minister Golding gives the go ahead for the extradition, under the illegal wiretap evidence, he would be signing his own death warrant. The Prime Minister's safety has been placed in danger as well. The Department Of Justice could have handled this matter better than this.

Had Holder gone the standard international route, of getting witnesses to testify against a drug suspect, rather than resorting to illegal wiretaps, this would not have happened, as there would have been no room to move for the suspect.

However, the Judiciary Report firmly believes this was an attempt to disrupt and topple the Jamaican government, which is not new territory for the U.S. government.

A number of nations such as Haiti (the U.S. government forcibly removed Jean-Bertrand Aristide from office, by kidnapping the Prime Minister and depositing him on the other side of the globe), Panama (the U.S. government invasion in 1989 left 4,000 dead and the government toppled), Grenada (In 1983 the U.S. government invasion left 25 locals dead and the government upended) and Iraq (the U.S. government invasion in 2003 toppled the Iraqi government, executed its leader Saddam Hussein and left 1 million civilians dead in an ongoing war being fought for oil) have been subjected to the same treatment in previous incidents, with the desired goal of destabilization, under someone's political agenda. So much for world peace.

Sadly, in each of those cases, lives were lost as well, during the ensuing turmoil. The Judiciary Report doesn't believe for one minute this is the way the American people want the U.S. government to represent the nation in the world, as that's about politics and not people.

Hollywood Law Firm Embroiled In Jamaican Extradition Controversy

Hollywood Law Firm Embroiled In Jamaican Extradition Controversy - Part 2

This is a continuation of the March 22. 2010 article Hollywood Law Firm Embroiled In Jamaican Extradition Controversy, regarding the dubious law firm Manatt, Phelps and Phillips and their questionable involvement in an extradition request between Jamaica and the United States, for alleged drug dealer Christopher Michael Coke.

Two days after the article ran on the site, it was announced the FBI is investigating Manatt, Phelphs and Phillips in the matter. The Judiciary Report raised the conflict of interest issue surrounding the case in the aforementioned article, as over a dozen high profile Manatt, Phelps and Phillips clients in Hollywood, have actively and irrationally tried to destroy Jamaica, via publicized boycotts and sponsored defamation, over the lyrics of a few dancehall rappers that represent themselves, not the Caribbean island.

It was vile and unbalanced for members of the so-called "gay mafia" and their associates in Hollywood to seek to destroy an entire nation over a dozen dancehall entertainers. It was equally inappropriate for Manatt, Phelps and Phillips to officially wade into the extradition case, knowing who is lingering under their preexisting client list. Their conduct constitutes code of ethics violations.

Under American Bar Association protocols and rules of professional conduct, the law firm should have disclosed the massive conflict of interest, before talking $50,000 - $100,000 in Jamaican taxpayer money, in their bid at being the country's legal representation.

Lawyers are supposed to do conflict of interest searches from the outset and Manatt, Phelps and Phillips clearly did not disclose their Hollywood based, anti-Jamaican client list, before they offered their services and accepted the money.

The Judiciary Report is of the belief, it was a deliberate act of egregious misrepresentation. A firm of that size does not make such mistakes and oversights and the Hollywood orchestrated "Boycott Jamaica" campaign that failed, was publicized and pushed by parties in Hollywood, known to the law firm as clients.

It was Manatt, Phelps and Phillips' legal duty as a law firm to disclose the conflict of interest. The sad fact of the matter is Manatt, Phelps and Phillips got involved in the case on both ends, which is grossly unprofessional and inappropriate according to the dictates of the American Bar Association.

It was a deceitful attempt to directly get involved in the national and international politics of a sovereign foreign nation, some of the firm's other prominent clients tried to financially damage, destroy and defame. It's also quite telling that the firm clammed up and refused to comment on the story this week, when asked by the press.

Once again, Hollywood trying to get into areas they have no business being - the official politics of a nation. I dare Manatt to disclose its Hollywood anti-Jamaican client list by name.

Eric Holder

What the Judiciary Report also dislikes in this case is the fact the extradition evidence does not meet the international legal standard. Extraditions are a useful legal tool, but must meet the respective international rule of law.

Once again, U.S. Attorney General, Eric Holder, has shown himself to be bumbling, incompetent and hypocritical and embarrassing the Obama administration, not only via his unprepared appearances in the U.S. Congress, but the international community as well.

Jamaica has extradited dozens of criminals to America upon request. Yet, Holder, defamed and slammed the Jamaican government as complicit in drug crime, after his legally deficient argument and illegal wiretap evidence he submitted in the Coke case, qualifies him and FBI Director Mueller for a 5 year stretch in a Jamaican prison, for violating the DOJ/FBI's Congressional mandate, as they criminally broke Jamaican law, to illegally wiretap a foreign citizen in his own nation, without permission.

Then, in the next breath, Holder and Mueller, in tandem with Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, this week declined the Indian government's valid, official extradition request for suspect David Headley, believed to be apart of the terrible terrorist attacks on their nation in November 2008 that left scores of people dead.

The Indian government is displeased with the decision. The Judiciary Report finds Holder's conduct regarding India hypocritical in light of what he has put the Jamaican government through, due to his folly in breaking Jamaican law with illegal wiretaps.

Furthermore, in the legal world, a terrorist is worst than a drug dealer, yet Holder would have the world thinking otherwise. How can you besmirch the Jamaican government's name, via placed pieces on the Associated Press, over an alleged drug dealer, in a case where you failed to meet the requirement of law, while shielding an alleged terrorist accused of killing many innocent people, from the Indian government, who met the requirement of law for an extradition to take place. Maybe Mr. Holder and Mr. Mueller are the ones that are complicit with crime.

FBI watching US law firm deal

Wednesday, 24 March 2010 - The Bruce Golding led administration is yet to comment on reports that the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) has taken an interest in the controversial contract involving the US law firm Manatt, Phelps and Phillips and Harold Brady.

RJR news has been reporting that the FBI is eyeing the case. However, it is not known what triggered the query. Mr. Brady who crafted the arrangement with Manatt, Phelps and Phillips has refused to disclose whether payments have been made to the law firm.

He cited client confidentiality for not disclosing any information about payments to the American firm. However, RJR News has obtained a copy of the latest filings with the Department of Justice which indicate that almost US$50,000 has been paid to Manatt by Mr. Brady's firm.

In the filings, representatives of Manatt, Phelps and Phillips met on three occasions in October and November with State Department officials to discuss treaty issues.

U.S. Decision Not to Extradite Confessed Mumbai Terror Suspect Angers India

Thursday, March 25, 2010 - (CNSNews.com) – India plans to challenge a U.S. plea bargain agreement barring the extradition of a Pakistan-born U.S. national who admitted playing a key role in planning the deadly November 2008 terror assault in Mumbai.

The simmering disagreement comes amid concern in New Delhi that the Obama administration’s warming ties with neighboring Pakistan will leave unaddressed India’s primary concern – Islamabad’s suspected involvement in anti-India terror...

Yet not only have Indian investigators not been given access to Headley for questioning in the U.S., but a plea agreement reached last week seems to rule out his extradition to India to face trial...

Hollywood Law Firm Embroiled In Jamaican Extradition Controversy

There is controversy today, regarding the American law firm, Manatt, Phelps and Phillips, having lobbied the Obama administration, to gain the extradition of alleged local drug dealer, Christopher Michael Coke.

Mr. Harold Brady of Manatt, Phelps and Phillips, also allegedly approached the incumbent Jamaican Prime Minister, to be the legal representation of the island of Jamaica.

That would constitute a massive conflict of interest, due to who Manatt, Phelps and Phillips' other clients in Hollywood are and what they have been doing regarding Jamaica.

Manatt, Phelps and Phillips represent the Association of Motion Picture and Television Producers, Warner Bros and Sony studios and record labels, American Idol and Madonna to name a few (Robert Jacobs of Manatt, Phelps and Phillips in New York). http://www.manatt.com/Entertainment.aspx. There are more suitable U.S. firms in operation.

The Coke extradition has hit an extraordinary snag, as it has been revealed, the evidence the U.S. Department of Justice submitted in attempting to gain Coke's removal from the island, consists of items that violated Jamaican wiretap laws and in turn, Mr. Coke's rights under Jamaican statutes and the Jamaican Constitution, which was born from the British Constitution (Queen Elizabeth is still Jamaica's monarch, as it is a former British colony).

One of the oddities of this case is the fact the law firm Manatt, Phelps and Phillips represents many Hollywood clients that are apart of the "boycott Jamaica" campaign tinsel town initiated a year ago, through a member of the U.S. Congress and separately racist, n-word using gay blogger, Perez Hilton, due to certain dancehall artists' anti-gay lyrics.

Manatt, Phelps and Phillips represent Hollywood stars that have irrationally slammed the entire nation of Jamaica, for the deeds of a few anti-gay rappers. Manatt, Phelps and Phillips have also represented members of Hollywood's "gay mafia" as they are called.

Manatt, Phelps and Phillips does not mean Jamaica well in any measure, nor does some of its clients in Hollywood that tried to destroy the island nation last year with an international boycott they called for that failed.

Where most sane people call for boycotts of products or companies, nasty Hollywood called for a boycott of an entire nation of men, women, children and babies, because they disliked the free speech lyrics of a few people that do not even constitute 1% of the island nation's population. That is the definition of ignorance.

Manatt, Phelps and Phillips knew of Coke from stories about "The Shower Posse" drug ring and sought to cause trouble in Jamaica with the extradition they lobbied for.

It is the rule, not the exception, that the U.S. Department of Justice must meet the rule of law that exists in other nations and vice versa, when requesting extraditions. Going to the Jamaican government with illegally wiretapped evidence is unlawful and inadmissible in court. That's the rule of law in many nations.

If I were in government in Jamaica and suspected a U.S. citizen located in New York, for example, of committing crimes in America that touched Jamaican shores, violating laws on the island as well, I could not legally engage the Jamaica Constabulary (Police) Force to bypass the U.S. government and wiretap said suspect in New York, from all the way in Jamaica without warrant or permission from the host nation, then march into the U.S. State Department demanding they extradite the person with the illegally obtained wiretap evidence.

Another example, if I were in government in America and suspected a British citizen of engaging in crimes in London that touched American shores, I could not legally engage the FBI to bypass the British government and wiretap said suspect in London, from all the way in America, without warrant or permission, then march into the British Foreign Secretary's office, demanding they extradite the person, using the illegally obtained wiretap evidence.

Therefore, why is Obama's Attorney General, Eric Holder and the U.S. Attorney's office in New York, submitting evidence for an extradition that was obtained via illegal wiretaps that violate Jamaican law. Why are you putting the Jamaican government in that position, Mr. Holder.

Americans don't even like it when you violate the Constitution and illegally wiretap U.S. citizens. Why would you think Jamaicans in Jamaica would welcome that invasiveness and massive overreach of your authority. Your congressional mandate is confined to U.S. Shores. Why have you done this.

FBI Director Robert S. Mueller is consistently in trouble in the U.S. Congress for illegally wiretapping people in America

Now, you are asking the Jamaican government to extradite a man on illegally obtained evidence, who community activists are openly stating in the press, will not go without a gunfight, where innocent Jamaicans could get killed in the crossfire.

What that says to the world is, as long as you and your kids are safe, Mr. Holder, you clearly could care less about any Jamaican grandparents, parents and kids in Tivoli Gardens (Jamaica) that could die.

Once again, the Judiciary Report is for law and order, but does not respect the way this was done. Typically in drug cases, they nab one guy and get him to sing on the others. That evidence is then used in tandem with additional items, to gain a proper, lawful extradition. That is the accepted international legal standard. Jamaica has extradited dozens of people to America in this manner.

However, Obama's Department of Justice, headed up by Eric Holder, is testing the waters in Jamaica, to set an international legal precedent for illegally wiretapping foreigners in their own nations, in violation of foreign law and using it in U.S. courts to gain convictions. Today, it is Jamaica, tomorrow it could be Britain, Spain, France, Canada or any of the other islands in the Caribbean.

Furthermore, it is a felony to wiretap someone on Jamaican shores without a proper warrant from the Attorney General and Jamaican Police. It is a criminal offense punishable by up to 5 years in prison.

Manatt, Phelps and Phillips is the law firm that willfully and knowingly submitted falsified evidence and committed perjury in court, in acting on behalf of Madonna and co, to steal preexisting copyrights registered to me in the Library of Congress, years before she stole them.

Copyrights whose proceeds were meant to go towards producing cures to AIDS and cancer, but instead went to lining the pockets of stars criminally breaking U.S. and U.N. law.

That decision almost cost me my life, as described here, because after the corrupt ruling went through in 2005, sicko Madonna cast off all restraint and sent members of the Miami Kabbalah center to threaten, harass and assault me in documented incidents, believing there would be no consequences for her crimes.

With the horrible ill-will and unprovoked hatred Manatt, Phelps and Phillips' famous clients have shown Jamaicans, in trying to destroy the entire island nation over the anti-gay music of a few, not to mention abusing an innocent Jamaican family, what business do they have petitioning the Jamaican government to be their legal representation, collecting Jamaican taxpayer dollars, unless it is a Hollywood trojan horse, seeking to surreptitiously damage Jamaica from the inside.

Why have you misrepresented yourselves and gone out to Jamaica, reportedly taken Jamaican taxpayer money, knowing full well your famous clients have been actively acting against the island nation, in bids at destroying it.

Was money paid to lobby the US for 'Dudus'?

Published: Sunday | March 21, 2010 - Red-hot controversy continues to swirl around the Government over the deal involving top-flight American law firm Manatt, Phelps and Phillips.

The troubling arrangement, which attracted a hefty US$100,000- (approximately J$8.9 million) per-quarter fee, kicked off last October.

The firm then filed documents on the United States Department of Justice website claiming that it represented the Government of Jamaica.

"We will be speaking with members of the (US) executive branch to provide information on issues regarding existing political and economic matters, including existing treaty agreements between Jamaica and the US," the firm stated in its documentation.

And even as the controversy deepens, more questions are being asked about who paid the bill charged by the American firm.

"The questions still remain to be answered as to what money was paid, by whom was it paid, what services were rendered, and whether the resources of the taxpayers were used to engage this firm, and I add, if not the taxpayers' whose resources?" declared Opposition Leader Portia Simpson Miller.

"This new development, which has been linked to the already complicated, sensitive, controversial and contentious extradition impasse between Jamaica and the United States of America will only serve to further jeopardise Jamaica's standing and reputation and diminish its credibility within the community of nations," Simpson Miller added.

So far, the Bruce Golding administration has rejected all allegations of wrongdoing, as well as the insinuation that the firm was contracted to deal with the impasse surrounding the extradition request for Christopher 'Dudus' Coke.

Instead, the administration is pointing the finger at attorney-at-law Harold Brady, who continues to argue that reports that he contracted the company to work for the Government are all a mistake, which has been corrected by the firm.

But there is no correction on the Department of Justice website, and up to Friday, officials at that office were still reporting that the firm was dealing with political and economic matters, including treaty arrangements, for Jamaica.

‘I didn’t know it was Dudus’ phone'

...In the dispute, Jamaica accuses the US of breaching the Interception of Communications Act 2002 (ICA) which governs wire-tapping in Jamaica.

Jamaica insists that there is a general Constitutional right of freedom of expression in Jamaica, including the right of freedom from interference to receive and impart ideas, as well as freedom from interference with one's correspondence and other means of communication.

Moreover, Jamaica argues, because the ICA is an intrusion on a citizen's Constitutional right to freedom of expression, its provisions have to be scrupulously observed and followed.

No order was ever made authorising the disclosure of information to a foreign government, agents of a foreign government or an agency of a foreign government, says Jamaica.

The Act provides that any person who intercepts communication in unauthorised circumstances commits a criminal offence and is liable to imprisonment for a period of three years or a fine not exceeding $3 million or both; and that any person who knowingly discloses the contents of any communication commits a criminal offence and is liable to imprisonment for a period of five years or a fine of $5 million or both.
