Russell County Kentucky March 19th, 2009; Today the FBI unsealed an
indictment which charged Special Judge R. Cletus Maricle who was
presiding as the Judge over the cases involving Leon Grider (charged
for allegedly illegally distributing prescription drugs,) James Faller
(for allegedly owing wages to employees and a second indictment for
witness tampering) and Melinda Wilson (who sued the City of Russell
Springs and the Chief of Police for allegedly trying to force her to
alter evidence and to have sex with the mayor and record it to be used
in a blackmail scheme.)
For months James Faller, Leon Grider and Melinda Wilson have been
screaming that the courts are corrupt and that the police are getting
away with murder, literally. Grider and Faller filed a series of
lawsuits against the City, the State, the Police and even one the
Russell Springs Mayor called Peter Rabbit in his nefarious effort to
mislead the public in a speech he gave at the last meeting of the City
Commission before the City became a Mayor strong form of Government.
The Complaints filed by Faller, Grider and Wilson (who filed
separately) allege exactly the charges that the FBI and the United
States Attorney’s Office filed against Special Judge R. Cletus
Maricle.
You may remember that Faller and Grider finally forced a Special Grand
Jury to be convened, only to be met with more corruption by the now
disbanded Kentucky Bureau of Investigation, known as the KBI.
When Faller and a group of people began pushing for indictments of
Chief of Police Joe Michael Irvin, former Commonwealth Attorney Larry
Rogers and a host of other officials The KBI and a Special prosecutor
brought in KBI Agent John Dudinskie to work out a solution to the
Grand Jury problem.
During the investigation by the Grand Jury Faller filed numerous
motions and ultimately a lawsuit to try and stop the witnesses from
being harassed as well as the KBI agent (Dudinskie) tampering directly
with the Grand Jury. At one point Judge Vernon J. Miniard’s office
contacted the FBI for assistance with the Special Grand Jury due to
what was clearly an out of control proceeding. Faller finally went to
the Special Judge and was able to convince Maricle to issue an order
directing that the KBI and no one else could contact any witness.
Maricle swore in the potential witnesses, to no avail.
Faller persisted to locate evidence to prove the whole thing was a bag
of corruption and finally obtained a copy of the phone bills of
Dudinskie which showed that Dudinskie was in contact with Irvin the
entire time that he was supposedly investigating him. Faller further
learned from the phone records that Dudinskie left his phone on in the
Grand Jury room to allow him to listen in on the Grand Jury and to
keep Irvin up to speed on the charges he was being accused of.
Shortly after Faller obtained the phone records of the KBI agent
showing the corruption, Special Judge R. Cletus Maricle held an
emergency hearing and threatened Faller that he was in contempt of
Court and that he would hold him or his attorneys in contempt because
AT&T mistakenly sent the records to Faller.
Maricle held a special hearing and directly issued orders to Robert L.
Bertram, Joel Smith and J. Vincent Aprile ordering them to appear and
explain what took place and made the public statement someone was in
contempt and he would decide. In the end, despite the records showing
that the KBI and Irvin conspired to tamper with the Jury, or at least
eavesdrop on the Grand Jury, Maricle could not find Faller or his
attorneys in contempt however, Maricle issued an order sealing the
phone records which are prima facia evidence that the KBI and the
targets of the Grand Jury were conspiring.
Some time back Judge Maricle was appointed to “any and all matters
regarding James Faller or Leon Grider.” The current charges, although
not related in any way to Russell County show that Maricle was in fact
an expert in aiding and abetting corruption and racketeering through
the use of his office as Judge.
As you can see from the attached documents below, Maricle and 7 others
were charged with varying crimes. Maricle was directly charged with
Racketeering-Extortion (Count 1); Conspiracy to defraud the United
States (Count 10); Influencing/Injuring Officer/Juror/Witness and
Aiding and Abetting (Count 7) and Conspiracy Against the Rights of
Citizens (Count 9.)
Do these charges sound familiar?, they should, they are exactly what
Faller, and Grider charged all the Defendants with and then the Mayor
(and the Defendants) who is setting a new high on misleading the
public sued Faller and Grider for malicious prosecution. Maricle was
the sitting judge in that matter too, presumably to protect that
corruption and cover up as well.
We have been working on a series that will begin airing soon showing
you just how corrupt our local system is and how badly they have
covered it all up and that Judge Maricle was an intricate part of
making sure it never came out.
Chalk up another one to the good guys and keep checking back. We will
certainly be keeping this story updated as the events evolve.
