I heard Alton Maddox, Esq., speak on "Black Power Block" at Blogtalkradio on Dec. 23. The interview is at
http://www.blogtalkradio.com/wohradio/2014/12/24/baba-alton-maddox-attorney-at-war-critical-thinking-2015  (available 24/7 at this link).

Maddox complained that some attorneys representing survivors of police violence victims are interested in getting the families to take hush money rather than pursuing criminal charges against murderous police officers in addition to seeking justice in civil actions. That type of unethical attorney works for the system to quiet dissent about the many police murders that happen. There is a second type that operates like they have a CoIntelPro mandate to keep wealth out of black hands. That describes The Cochran Firm since Johnnie's demise. I hope you will be as insulted as I was to learn that The Cochran Firm sued Walmart and the police department on behalf of John Crawford, III's family and only demanded $75k. Furthermore, The Cochran Firm is not suing in John Crawford's case for wrongful death but for negligence. That is their way of saying, "Black Lives Don't Matter." Both types of unethical attorneys work for the system and against oppressed people by victimizing the survivors of police victims.

It seems that attorneys like Alton Maddox, Lynn Stewart, and Johnnie Cochran are either killed or neutralized through false allegations of wrongdoing. We must do what we can to help Maddox better prepare himself to help others. See an article by Maddox at http://hreventsbymlj.blogspot.com/2014/12/alton-maddox-on-black-power-block.html wherein Maddox outlines twenty unjust concepts that must be brought back in line with the Bill of Rights.  

See also a short article below about The Cochran Firm's "representation" of John Crawford's survivors. Chavis Carter's relatives, who also became Cochran Firm clients, are still marching for justice like my family is - denied both police accountability and restitution.

"Black Lives Don't Matter," Says The Cochran Firm's Small Demand for John Crawford III Lawsuit


John Crawford was killed in Walmart in August for shopping while black. According to a news articles by Russia Today (RT) and MSNBC, The Cochran Firm frauds are only seeking $75k from Walmart and Beavercreek, Ohio Police Department for Crawford's survivors.

The $75k demand in Crawford's civil action is the smallest wrongful death demand this writer has ever read. The 22-year-old man's child will be deprived of his support throughout his/her lifetime. Crawford's mother will not have his love and support as she ages. To demand such a small amount of money from Walmart and the police department responsible for Crawford's death is obscene. But this is expected behavior for The Cochran Firm, which typically works behind its black clients' backs to protect police departments and large corporations.

The grand jury in Crawford's case refused to indict the police officers who killed him, just as no officers were indicted for the deaths of Eric Garner and Michael Brown. Public protests continue regarding the lack of justice in all three cases. The jury pool in Crawford's wrongful death civil action case would undoubtedly include people who have strong feelings about the innocent young man's death. Caucasians as well as African Americans are offended that police approached and shot Crawford in his back while he was using the phone in Walmart. In fact, a white woman was reportedly run over and arrested by police at a protest for Crawford this week (see the RawStory article link below). However, there will be no jury trial in the civil matter, because Crawford's family was never warned about The Cochran Firm fraud. Crawford's survivors essentially chose their defendants' own lawyer as their wrongful death attorney.

In the wrongful death of Jerome Murdough case, The Cochran Firm frauds settled the case involving the Marine Corps veteran who was baked to death in Riker's Island Jail for less than 10 percent of the demand, without filing a lawsuit. If that happens in Crawford's case, his survivors may receive under $7,500 for his wrongful death. Even if the family is awarded the entire $75k, The Cochran Firm frauds will keep over 35 percent, according to our contract with the CoIntelPro law firm (See the Wrongful Death of Larry Neal.com website online). This case probably has the smallest wrongful death demand on record, which is probably why corrupt attorneys downgraded the charge to "negligence." Who pays The Cochran Firm when it demands so little (and sometimes nothing at all) for the lives of African American clients?

It is disheartening that many media companies, including those owned by blacks, know about The Cochran Firm fraud but refuse to warn African American legal consumers. Learn more about The Cochran Firm frauds in articles and videos in this blog  http://CochranFirmFraud.blogspot.com

Please help keep grieving families away from The Cochran Firm frauds. The lawyer's small demand in the John Crawford, III case says "BLACK LIVES DON'T MATTER."
