ARTICLE BELOW ON THE ILLEGAL SPYING BY
STATE EMPLOYEES.
========================================
The spies hired by the cops are
usually ex-cops who go into the
private-eye business. The same
wid duh DCF. DCF hires private
eyes to bug phones and houses
and even cars. The judges know
about the illegal spying but wrongly
assume duh DCF is telling the truth
about what they learn from their illegal
spying.
And what is this?:
http://www.actionlyme.org/BLUMENTHALS_MAIL_STOLEN_BY_JESSICA_GAUVIN.htm
How did Jessica Gauvin steal
Richard Blumenthal's RICO mail
right off of his desk?
Blumenthal's staff were the ones who
told me to file the RICO complaint in
http://www.actionlyme.org/USDOJ_COMPLAINT_RICO.htm
the first place, because the retarded
DCF said I was a bad parent for not
getting my congenitally-infected Lyme
children treatment for Lyme.
http://www.actionlyme.org/Schoen.htm
THIS ^^^ is how retarded they get if
you were wondering, "How retarded does
it get?"
Now, since it is clear that I have
chronic Epstein-Barr, cytomegalovirus,
live spirochetes in my spinal fluid
http://www.actionlyme.org/PHILLIPS_JE_PERVERT.htm
"moderately severe carpal tunnel in both
hands," and damage to every single nerve
coming out of my neck, do we really think I
am a "dangerously intelligent chemist like
Ted Kascynski?" or am I too disabled
to work in a lab, especially with
the brain SPECT-scan documented
dementia, or, technically, DELIRIUM?
Do ya think that all might have something
ta do with DCF obstructing a very-winnable
lawsuit against a total *IDIOT?*
http://www.actionlyme.org/PENIBITERDOCS.htm
Reduced blood flow to the brain is
known as HYPOXIA, which is a delirium.
I really don't think I will be trying
to mess around with explosives if DELIRIUM
is the very reason I don't work at Pfizer
in a lab any more, duh.
So, that's your answer about how the
cops, et al, illegally spy on any whistleblowers.
They hire their own former co-workers
who have become private-eyes.
Of course, it turns out, now, the cops,
especially in Stamford, need us Lyme
victim/activist, which was, of course,
inevitable.
These unions are too retarded to realize
they are selling out their own posterity
by handing over all our liberties to the
Bigs.
I wonder how many cops' kids have autism?
They still gonna run around as the
hired goons for the Bigs?
For Rockefeller?
For BigOil?
For Henry Kissinger?

"You betchya"
Dannaher used to work for/wid da FBI.
He prolly knows quite a number of former
spooks who are, um, "retired."
I don't trust any cops for the primary,
central, essential reason that they're
very, very stupid people. They have no
concept of the real world - the one that
exists outside their own.
They don't know who they're actually
working for. And even if a few of them
did know, not a one of them has the balls
to start some sort of a dot org and go about
educating their "brothers."
They're too closed, like a cult.
Like Jim Jones' crew.
Like street gangs. Like illiterate Latinos
in LA...
I know for sure. I tried many, many times
to penetrate their pin heads.
No go.

A political activist and free-lance journalist who is suing the police
over his arrest in Hartford at Gov. M. Jodi Rell's 2007 inauguration
parade says he has found evidence that state police used phony e-mail
identities to gather information on political activities.
The state police engaged in "political spying" using "cloaked
Connecticut State Police addresses" to "subscribe to e-mail bulletin
boards and lists … that contain political information relating to the
Green Party, the Democratic Party" and political activists, plaintiff
Kenneth Krayeske of Hartford says in federal court papers.
The office of state Attorney General Richard Blumenthal has filed a
reply saying that Krayeske "relies not upon reasonable inferences
drawn from the facts … but, rather, on innuendo and speculation."
John Danaher, the state's commissioner of public safety, said he
cannot comment on the pending lawsuit. Speaking generally, he said
that while state police "frequently use assumed identities" for
criminal investigations, politics is off-limits.
"It would be limited to the investigation of criminal activity only,"
Danaher, whose department includes the state police, said in a Dec. 7
interview. He said that under state police rules, it is "prohibited to
investigate political activity, overtly or covertly."
Krayeske's claims are in a thick stack of papers he filed Nov. 25 in
hopes of persuading a federal judge to reconsider a Nov. 6 decision
granting motions to dismiss Krayeske's case against the state police —
leaving intact only one claim to go to trial against the Hartford city
police officer who arrested him.
Krayeske was arrested Jan. 3, 2007, as he took pictures of Rell during
the parade. He was charged with breach of peace and interfering with
police, held 12 hours on $75,000 bail, then released after it was too
late to lead a protest outside Rell's inaugural ball. The charges were
dropped later.
Krayeske, who acted as campaign director for Green Party gubernatorial
candidate Cliff Thornton in 2006, says he was targeted because he
criticized Rell publicly — partly by means including his website,
the40yearplan.com. He was identified by state police as one of several
"persons of interest" who might pose a threat, and his picture was in
a two-page state police security flier given to Hartford police on
parade duty.
Now, in support of his pending motion for reconsideration of the
federal judge's Nov. 6 ruling, Krayeske has submitted copies of e-
mails that he obtained from state police files in the course of the 2-
year-old lawsuit. The printouts contain two electronic addresses:
theseriousbrother@ yahoo.com and efor...@hotmail.com.
Courant e-mails sent recently to both of those addresses drew
automated replies of "undeliverable."
"Theseriousbrother" address was on an e-mail that the state police
provided to Krayeske in response to a request for public records. The
e-mail, kept in police files, contained a copy of a Green Party
campaign release dated Oct. 16, 2006 — and Krayeske claims that
"theseriousbrother" account was used by state police to subscribe to
the yahoogroups.com account to which the Green Party sent updates.
The state police blacked out "theseriousbrother" e-mail account name
when they gave it to him, on the grounds that it was an investigative
technique they didn't have to disclose, Krayeske said.
His lawyer at the time, Kevin M. Smith, questioned state police Lt.
Mark Cassista about the e-mail in a sworn deposition last Feb. 13: "Do
you have any idea who theseriousbrother, a Yahoo e-mail account, was?"
Cassista, who had participated in the state police inauguration parade
security operation as then-commander of the department's central
criminal intelligence unit, said he didn't know who
"theseriousbrother" was but went on to say that "we have e-mails we
use in the intelligence [operation] as to try to cloak our identities
as being police officers" to "gather information."
"About political parties?" Smith asked.
"No, sir," Cassista answered.
But Krayeske says the state police violated their own prohibition by
using the unexplained e-mail address to transmit internally a Green
Party release.
He makes a similar charge with regard to the "eforpeace" e-mail
account, which he said was used in 2006 to send a copy of another
activist's upcoming political protest to an internal state police e-
mail address referred to as "Trooper, Governors."
He says in his court papers that the "eforpeace" e-mail was used to
sign up for bulletins from the Central Connecticut State University
Progressive Student Alliance Committee. When one of those bulletins
advertised an October 2006 rally for DeStefano's Democratic
gubernatorial campaign, an "eforpeace" e-mail went to the state police
containing a copy, Krayeske's documents say.
Danaher, the public safety commissioner, wouldn't comment on whether
"theseriousbrother" or "eforpeace" addresses were used by the state
police, saying he couldn't talk directly about the case while the
lawsuit is pending.
But, in general, he gave the following examples of legitimate police
use of false identities: a police officer posing as a 13-year-old girl
in a chat room while investigating a suspected child molester, or an
officer "trading e-mails" with someone in a violent organization to
see if criminal activity is planned.
Krayeske, now a law student, also said Rell's chief of staff, M. Lisa
Moody, forwarded to the state police governor's security detail an e-
mail that a state employee had sent to her, in which Krayeske had
advertised a civil rights rally on the steps of the Supreme Court Jan.
30, 2007, while his criminal case was still pending. Krayeske cited it
as another indication of improper scrutiny of political activity.
Rell's office declined comment on the allegation.
