Ann Marie Soto Shannon Ragonesi
In November 2017, the City of Gold Bar’s attorneys Ann Marie Soto and Shannon Ragonesi decided to have a meeting with a federal witness Brandia Tamuu. Besides the obvious, tampering with a federal witness ( a felony in Washington), both entered into a bribery scheme to remove the witness’s criminal arrest warrant and criminal history from the National Crime Information Center’s (NCIC) criminal data base.
Public records from the City of Gold Bar, from November 21 to December 20, 2017, document that in November 2017, Shannon Ragonesi and Ann Marie Soto were contacted for a meeting by a convicted animal abuser. The woman was desperate for money, had in fact tried extort the Gold Bar Reporter for money/car, and had offered to meet up with Ragonesi and Soto at the Law Firm of Keating Bucklin McCormack Inc in downtown Seattle. Brandia Tammu needed money as she was being threatened with eviction from her home. In exchange for meeting with Ragonesi and Soto, the woman would get money and her City of Everett arrest warrant and conviction for animal abuse would be cleared. Tammu claimed to have dirt on the Gold Bar Reporter, but had nothing of value except speculation on why the Gold Bar Reporter moved West, and it was quite apparent from an insider at the law office that the woman is suffering from mental health issues.
According to the woman, Ragonesi and Soto agreed to clear her criminal arrest warrant and conviction from NCIC via ACCESS.
Ragonesi and Soto also told the woman that they could issue secret subpoenas for any document they so desired, and further offered to help the woman get a restraining order against the Gold Bar Reporter’s news reports. One witness said that the woman recorded their meeting, but we have no knowledge of whether this is true or not.
The Washington State Patrol turned over the woman’s criminal history one week before and a week after the Ragonesi and Soto November 2017 bribery meeting, and it is clear that just days after this meeting, the criminal conviction record and arrest warrant were wiped from NCIC via ACCESS. The person who cleared the woman’s ACCESS records was Michael Meyers, King County police officer.
The City of Gold Bar, at the bequest of Ann Marie Soto and Shannon Ragonesi, illegally claimed that the meeting records were exempt from public disclosure. Obviously, a lawsuit forcing disclosure is coming, and Ms. Soto and Ms. Ragonesi will be deposed.
In early 2018, Gold Bar’s new Mayor Bill Clem agreed to an interview with the Gold Bar Reporter and he said ” those people who are threatening you are now threatening me.”
NCIC was created to assist law enforcement track or apprehend persons that may be a danger to society or have outstanding criminal warrants. When a police officer stops a person driving or is a suspect, s/he should know whether the person has a criminal history. For this reason, ACCESS and NCIC are searched, hopefully alerting the officer a potential danger to them or outstanding court issues of the driver or suspect. Self protection according to the US Supreme Court.
But here in Washington State, the FBI NCIC database via ACCESS is being tampered with as political favors, bribery schemes, and to enhance criminal sentencing if a defendant is convicted of crime.
Over the past year, we found case after case where mainly prosecutors inside King and Snohomish County government are illegally removing criminal history from the NCIC.
Here’s just three cases that illustrate quite nicely three Snohomish County Prosecutors Mark Roe, Wallace Langbehn III and Sean Reay’s criminal racketeering acts exposed in public NCIC records.
Sno County Prosecutor Sean Reay, removing criminal history records from NCIC as political favors
In 2009, the City of Gold Bar’s Mayor, Crystal Hill ( nee Berg) attempted to have the Gold Bar Reporter charged with a crime for exposing her crimes against the City of Gold Bar taxpayers ( theft in excess of $200,000.00). Ms. Hill Berg was sleeping with several married men inside Snohomish County government, including but not limited to Snohomish County Executive Aaron Reardon and Emergency Management Director John E. Pennington.
Ms Hill Pennington ( nee Berg) and John E Pennington were stealing from Snohomish County Emergency Management and the County’s Emergency Housing Funds. Federal money distributed to the local government via a welfare block grant.
On July 5, 2008, Gold Bar’s water employee Karl Majerle was caught red handed stealing from the City of Gold Bar, and had in fact sabotaged the City’s Wells, # 3 and 4. Why, because Ms. Hill (Berg) was informed by Gold Bar council member Dorothy Croshaw that Majerle was stealing from the City. After Karl Majerle was caught stealing, he was fired, which he recorded via audio means, and then out of anger, he left City Hall and poured gravel down Gold Bar’s City wells # 3 and 4. Instead of reporting the federal crimes, as acts of domestic terrorism to Gold Bar’s water system, Ms. Hill (Berg) decided the best way to handle this was to ask Snohomish County Prosecutor Sean Reay for a favor i.e. help quash criminal charges against Majerle.
And Sean Reay did it.
Snohomish County Prosecutor Sean Reay received the criminal referral from Snohomish County Sheriff’s Officer Terry Handleman and Deputy Jeff Ross ( Brady Cops). Sean Reay received a phone call from Snohomish County Director John E Pennington and Executive Aaron Reardon asking for his help in quashing the criminal charges as “political courtesy.” Sean Reay called then Sheriff and both made an agreement to not prosecute Karl Majerle for sabotaging the City of Gold Bar’s water system.
Sean Reay, in an effort to make it look good, sent the Karl Majerle’s criminal complaint to his wife, Laura Twindale. Ms. Twinsdale is in charge of Snohomish County District Court, Evergreen Division.
Sean Reay never referred the case to the federal government as all crimes against water systems must be referred to the DOJ and FBI for investigation and/or prosecution. But instead, Sean Reay sent the criminal complaint against Gold Bar’s water employee to his wife, Laura Twinsdale. Ms. Twinsdale is only in charge of misdemeanor offenses and has no authority to issue felony charges nor prosecute federal crimes.
We later learned that Karl Majerle and Crystal Hill ( nee Berg) had entered into a bribery scheme. Why, because Karl Majerle knew what we didn’t know for five years until Snohomish County finally released a record it illegally withheld for almost 7 years now.
Simply put, Snohomish County Prosecutor Sean Reay is guilty of racketeering, quashing criminal charges as political favors. Perhaps Mr. Reay thought he and Aaron Reardon were going to the Governor’s Manson. So sad, but along came the Gold Bar Reporter, and Aaron Reardon was ousted for stealing public monies.
As a political favor, Sean Reay helped Crystal Hill ( nee Berg) remove her criminal conviction and arrest records from NCIC.
Not only did Prosecutor Sean Reay assist Ms. Hill ( nee Berg) remove her criminal history from NCIC, he also entered into a bribery scheme with Ms. Hill Pennington (nee Berg), to quash criminal charges after she violently assaulted a six year old child.
Our readers, and those Ms Hill Pennington ( nee Berg) stole from ( City of Gold Bar taxpayers) should be happy to know that she is now frauding the federal taxpayers working as a contractor at FEMA in Emittsburg Maryland. According to the Office of Inspector General, persons convicted of fraud are not eligible for federal employment or federal contracts of any nature.
FEMA’s Brock Long was made aware of Crystal Hill Pennington’s criminal history and has refused comment.
Snohomish County Prosecutor Wallace Langbehn III, putting false criminal history records inside NCIC. Why? To enhance criminal sentencing if the accused is found guilty. We also have ample evidence to also document that Wallace Langbehn also falsely placed criminal history inside NCIC to retaliate against persons who exposed Dawson Place as a fraudulent 501 (3) (C).
The Gold Bar Reporter was the first to expose Dawson Place as a fraudulent 501 (3) (c) with its sole purpose used by Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office and Prosecutors Office for purposes of domestic spying and siphoning over $27 Million dollars of Washington State and federal taxpayer monies.
Dawson Place uses the law firm of Anderson Hunter to funnel millions of public money just as G. Geoffrey Gibbs did with attorney Lin O’Dell inside the Snohomish County Housing Authority scam known as Whispering Pines. The scam that involved Dean Bellamy, a man murdered by Spokane County Sheriff’s Office. Mr. Bellamy was threatening to expose many Judges and Commissioners involved in the guardian scam with attorneys Joseph Nappi Jr, Lin O’Dell and James Spargetis in Spokane.
Click below to how Dawson Place is nothing more than a shrill set up by Snohomish County Judges, Prosecutors and attorneys siphoning off million of public dollars.

For those of my readers who have been following the County’s malicious prosecution of Lori Shavlik, it’s no surprise that Dawson Place’s Prosecutor Wallace Langbehn III was working inside Dawson Place when Snohomish County activist Lori Shavlik started piecing together the County Judges/Prosecutors/Attorneys sick little domestic spy ring also known now as Dawson Place.
Bigger question still remains unanswered: Where did the millions of public monies go?
In 2010, Snohomish County Prosecutors Mark Roe and Adam Cornell knew Lori Shavlik was getting close to exposing Dawson Place as a shrill to funnel public monies and spy on citizens. Mark Roe and Adam Cornell needed to shut Ms. Shavlik up as she was starting to unravel Dawson Place as a shadow agency owned and operated by Snohomish County government.
Mark Roe and Adam Cornell decided the best way to shut Ms. Shavlik up was to enlist the assistance of a known Brady Cop named David Fontenot. David Fontenot’s job was to find someone close to Ms. Shavlik to start a fire inside Ms. Shavlik’s tanning salon. Fontenot is as dirty as them, and had known all of the drug addicts, and one such drug addict Fontenot found worked inside Ms. Shavlik’s tanning salon. Rebecca Bradshaw was well know to David Fontenot, because Ms. Bradshaw was a drug informant on Snohomish County’s payroll.
While at the same time Rebecca Bradshaw is on Snohomish County’s payroll, Ms Bradshaw was working in and stealing from Ms. Shavlik’s tanning salon in the City of Snohomish. Brady Cop David Fontenot knew this, and enlisted Ms. Bradshaw assistance in starting a fire behind a dryer unitinside Ms. Shavlik’s tanning salon.
The false trumped up criminal charges Snohomish County set into action came only after Ms. Shavlik had exposed Dawson Place for fraud, and a government shrill to steal taxpayer monies without accountability.
In 2014, Snohomish County Prosecutors Office, known racketeering member, Franchasca Yahyavi tried Ms. Shavlik for first degree arson. Ms. Yahyavi, never disclosed that the lead detective David Fontenot was a Brady Cop, and that the County’s main witness Rebecca Bradshaw was a paid informant.
Thankfully for Ms. Shavlik one juror was a highly educated Engineer who later said ” this was bullshit. There was nothing here.” Those of you who know me, know I am partial to engineers not only because my engineer is my most loved treasure, but because persons that are trained in hard sciences are critical thinkers who analysis even small pieces of evidence.
That Engineer saved Ms. Shavlik’s life by holding out for days until the Judge called it a deadlock jury. Instead of the Prosecutors’ leaving well enough alone, Francesca Yadavvi recharged Ms. Shavlik in a second trial in February 2016.
The Gold Bar Reporter was in the audience watching as Brady Cop David Fontenot and Prosecutor Yahyavi paraded witness after witness on the stand to attest about what a bad business owner Ms. Shavlik was. One witness named Dolly even told the jury that she was told by the Prosecutors that she would get money for her testimony.
In March 2016, 12 jurors acquitted Lori Shavlik of arson.
Early this year, Ms. Shavlik started complaining that her insurance rates were over the roof. This prompted this question: have you looked at your criminal access searches and driving record from Washington State ?
When Lori Shavlik retrieved her driving record from the Washington State Department of Licensing she learned that Dawson Place Prosecutor Wallace Langbehn III had entered false information into Ms. Shavlik’s criminal history records, falsely claiming that she had plead guilty to contributing to the delinquency of a minor.
In a nutshell, Wallace Langbehn III entered into Ms. Shavlik’s criminal history records, via NCIC, that Ms. Shavlik had plead guilty to giving alcohol to minors. False.
Wallace Langbehn III falsely entered a conviction record into Ms. Shavlik’s NCIC records and he did so while assigned to Dawson Place, an alleged non-profit 501 (3) (c). A shrill money laundering company to further the efforts of Dawson Place and its racketeering members. Mainly Snohomish County Prosecutors and Judges and two mobsters and attorneys G. Geoffrey Gibbs and Michael Kenyon.
Does this fit the definition of racketeering crimes?
Source: https://www.cga.ct.gov/2006/rpt/2006-R-0484.htm
The federal Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) (18 USC §§ 1961-1968) prohibits (1) acquiring, establishing, or operating an enterprise with illegally derived income, (2) acquiring or maintaining an interest in or control of an enterprise through illegal activity, and (3) using an enterprise to commit illegal acts (Extortion, Blackmail, Etc., 31A Am Jur 2d).
RICO defines “racketeering activity” as a long list of state and federal crimes. The federal crimes include bribery, various fraud offenses, gambling offenses, money laundering, a number of financial and economic crimes, obstructing justice or a criminal investigation, murder for hire, and sexual exploitation of children. The state crimes include murder, kidnapping, gambling, arson, robbery, bribery, extortion, dealing in obscene matter, and drug crimes.
It defines a “pattern of racketeering activity” as at least two acts of racketeering activity, one of which occurred after RICO became law and the last of which occurred within 10 years after the prior act.
“racketeering activity” means committing, attempting to commit, conspiring to commit, or intentionally aiding, soliciting, coercing, or intimidating another person to commit a specified list of felonies. These felonies include gambling activities, extortion, drug offenses, weapons offenses, murder, assault, prostitution, hazardous waste violations, securities violations, coercion, money laundering, arson, bribery, and forgery
“Pattern of racketeering activity” means engaging in at least two incidents of racketeering activity that (1) have the same or similar purposes, results, participants, victims, or methods of commission or otherwise are interrelated by distinguished characteristics; (2) are not isolated incidents; (3) include at least one incident that occurred after October 1, 1982; and (4) occurred within five years of a prior incident of racketeering activity (CGS § 53-394(e)).
“Collusion” is not defined in either RICO, although the word “collusion” is used in a number of state contracting statutes. The Black‘s Law Dictionary definition of “collusion” includes a “secret combination, conspiracy, or concert of action between two or more persons for fraudulent or deceitful purpose.” This type of conduct would appear to be covered by RICO
Wallace Langbehn III, Sean Reay, Mark Roe, Adam Cornell, Mike Kenyon, Shannon Ragonesi, Ann Marie Soto, and Snohomish County Judges were contacted and all declined comment.
GOLD BAR REPORTER 
SEATTLE’S EPSTEIN – PART 10
March 20, 2023
Lloyds of London Running a State Assisted Monopoly
Lloyds of London’s Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) is a house of cards. “It’s a very old story. Greed. Power. Arrogance. It never lasts”, semi-retired journalist Robert Greenwald said.
In Washington State, Lloyds of London RICO is collectively managed by Washington State Attorney General (WA AG) Bob Ferguson and Association of Washington Cities/Counties (AWC). It’s Chief Executive Officer is attorney Deanna Dawson. The Attorney General and AWC are also an arm of the State Executive’s Office, also known as the Governor’s Cabinet.
WA AG Bob Ferguson started his career as an attorney protecting the Catholic Church from sex abuse claims in Guadalupe Arizona. The Catholic Chruch is insured by Lloyds. WA AG Bob Ferguson and King County Prosecutor Dan Satterberg decided the best way to help their client, Lloyds, was to allege that the statute of limitations had lapsed against Lloyds of London and its syndicates, thus denying victims of sex abuse their day in court.
It’s important to note for readers that WA AG Bob Ferguson is an arm of the Washington State’s Executive Office. Governor Jay Inslee is the Executive in Washington State. In the United States, citizens have two ways of picking state court judges, either by election or by appointment of the state governor. Open Judicial seats are always filled by political appointment of the Governor, but at the bequest, collectively, of WA AG Bob Ferguson and Association of Washington Cities/Counties (AWC). AWC is a syndicate of Lloyds of London.
In 2020, the Gold Bar Reporter was first to report that Washington State Attorney General (WA AG) Bob Ferguson entered into an illegal contract to provide a legal defense to the City of Gold Bar, Snohomish County, Washington State Supreme Court and the Washington State Bar Association.
This criminal racketeering conduct not only violates the Separation of Powers Doctrine, it also creates a monopoly in violation of Sherman Anti-Trust. John Scannell, a public interest attorney also argues that its “dishonest services” or case fixing and amounts to RICO.
Under the Separation of Powers Doctrine, the Judiciary cannot make agreement with the Executive Office or the Legislature. The Executive Officer cannot make contracts with the Judiciary or the Legislature. The Legislature cannot make contracts with the Judiciary or the Executive Office. The intention behind a system of separated powers is to prevent the concentration of power by providing for checks and balances. But here in Washington, such violations of basic principles of separation of powers has and continues to be violated by Washington State Attorney General (WA AG) Bob Ferguson, and the Washington State Supreme Court entering into illegal contracts with each branch spitting on the Constitution.
Those not familiar with AWC’s CEO attorney Deanna Dawson might recall that Ms. Dawson was engaged in “ get ahead by sleeping with Snohomish County Executive Aaron Reardon scandal” which exposed Ms. Dawson for misappropriating Snohomish County public money for pleasure travel in Europe with disgraced former Snohomish County Executive Aaron Reardon. When the Snohomish County Daily Herald published this “wag the dog” article on disgraced Executive Aaron Reardon, he was not only sleeping with a county employee from the public health division, he was sleeping with and traveling Europe on the taxpayer’s dime with Snohomish County Executive employee attorney Deanna Dawson.
The Gold Bar Reporter was first to report on this scandal in July 2010. As result of the Gold Bar Reporter’s articles, attorney Deanna Dawson and Aaron Reardon were forced to resign, and Dawson disappeared for years but was later hired by Lloyds of London’s syndicate AWC as its Chief Executive Officer.
Bob Ferguson also worked for Special Assistant Attorney General (SAAG) and Special Assistant Prosecutor (SAP) law firm Preston Ellis & Gates. While employed at Preston, Bob Ferguson hired Jack Abramoff to gain privileges with President George W Bush’s administration. Jack Abramoff was arranging sex with children for politicians in Olympia in exchange for lobbying contracts with Preston, Ellis & Gates. But Abramoff got greedy and decided to represent government interests while at the same time pushing Native American interests. As a result, Jack Abramoff was charged with RICO, and those charges were brought under George W. Bush Jr.’s Administration. Because Jack Abramoff knew too much about government officials sex with children scandal involving several Washington State Representatives and Washington State Bar members, such as Marlin Applewick, Attorney G. Geoffrey Gibbs, WA State Senator John Lovick, Rep. John Edward Pennington Jr ( aka as Seattle’s Epstein), and WSBA counsel Doug Ende, Jack Abramoff received a sweetheart deal for 5 years in prison in exchange for his silence. The Bush Administration wanted to bury the human trafficking charges that should have been brought against high-ranking members of Bush Administration. That included Fairbanks resident (who also claims, illegally, residence in Duvall Washington but is registered to vote in Alaska), John Edward Pennington Jr.
Although Bush fired John Edward Pennington Jr as FEMA Region X Director after the FBI discovered that Pennington raped of a child in 1992 in Cowlitz County Washington and tried to murder a woman named Loraina in Oswego Oregon in 1990, Bush Administration failed to warn the public of Pennington’s crimes against women and children. Instead, Bush fired Pennington allowing him to commit more crimes in Snohomish County Washington.
In 2011, John Edward Pennington Jr. sexually assaulted a Department of Emergency Management (DEM) public records officer named Diana. Pennington’s sexual assault of Diana occurred inside Snohomish County DEM. After a friend of Diana’s reported Pennington’s sexual assault to county executive, Diana was paid off ($75,000 from Snohomish County) and received a promotion to head the City of Marysville Emergency Management Office in exchange for her silence of Pennington’s sexual assault. Today, Diana receives an annual salary of $145,000.00 year, quite a boost from her $42,500.00 salary she received as a mere public records officer prior to reporting Pennington for sexual assault and attempted rape.
Under RICO, sadly, the US District Attorney decides whether or not to indict someone. The US Attorney is the public’s last line of defense against public corruption in a specific geological area of the United States. In Western Washington, Special Assistant Attorney General, Nick Brown, was appointed by the United States President, at the bequest of Governor Jay Inslee and WA AG Bob Ferguson. Mr. Brown worked for SAAG law firm, Pacific Law Group. Pacific Law Group’s main client is Lloyds of London’s syndicate AON.
AON also provides insurance for Snohomish County’s risk pool. Snohomish County’s risk pool includes every city in Snohomish County, including Gold Bar and City of Sultan. AON is a syndicate of Lloyds of London. Pacifica Law Group is Lloyds Washington State’s Level 3 insurer, and WA AG Bob Ferguson has created a monopoly by labeling all county prosecutors’ as SAAGs.
In Washington State, the AG is hand picking judges and US Attorneys in an effort to fix cases to insure convictions and favorable civil decisions on behalf of its insurer, Lloyds of London, and its syndicates. Sole purpose of Lloyd’s of London’s “case fixing scam” is “risk management” or profits over people. Profits that only affect a small few, also known as WA State’s RICO members. RICO members include both state and federal judges, county employees, prosecutors, public defenders, and private law firms also known as WA SAAGs and Special Deputy Prosecuting attorneys such as Keating, Buckling and McCormick, Madrona Law Group, Ogden Murphy and Wallace, Pacific Law Group, Law, Lyman, Daniel, Kamerrer & Bogdanovich, and Smith Goodfriend.
Over the last fifteen years our research has proven that WA AG Bob Ferguson is fixing cases in every area of law in Washington State by making political appointments who have a financial benefits to the AG. Lloyds of London and its syndicates insure judges, Washington State Attorney General, legislators, prosecutors, public defenders, public university employees (strangely includes University of Washington’s Innocence Project), city officials, county employees, the private Washington State Bar employees, private law firms and its’ attorneys, police officers, etc. WA AG Bob Ferguson even runs non-profit groups like Victim Support Services, Dawson Place, and the private Washington State Bar Association. Lloyds, along with the help of WA AG Bob Ferguson are ensuring all of the above in a “pooled insurance” otherwise known as a Sherman Antitrust monopoly. A game everyone knows is controlled by one person. In WA State, WA AG Bob Ferguson is head of the monopoly.
Attorney Jeffrey S. Myers from SAAG law firm of , Law, Lyman, Daniel, Kamerrer & Bogdanovich said “they will not let her win.” Jeffrey Myers slip of the lip referring to “ they” was referring to Lloyds of London’s Sherman Anti-Trust scam assisted by Washington State’s AG who pooled insurance to further his monopoly otherwise known as “case fixing.”
Over the last twenty years, we have researched every judiciary in Washington State, from Thurston County to Spokane County, and here’s what we know to be true. Ninety percent ( 90 %) of the judges are handpicked by WA AG Bob Ferguson is or was a Washington State Attorney General at some point in their career.
The list of Judges handpicked by WA AG Bob Ferguson’s RICO is too lengthy to list, but for sake of this argument, we are outing several judges in different counties in Washington State who were directly appointed by WA AG Bob Ferguson to fix cases on behalf of the state.
In Thurston County Superior Court, Carol Murphy ( former head of the WA State’s AG Torts Division) and Allyson Zypp, former WA AGs, and employees of Washington State Attorney General’s torts division. King County Superior Court Judges, Jim E. Rogers, Marshall Ferguson, Ken Shubert, Michael Segal, and Michael Scott, all former Special Assistant Attorney Generals (SAAGs) and Special Assistant Deputy Prosecutors for Thurston, Spokane, King and Snohomish Counties (SAPs). All are good friends to WA AG Bob Ferguson.
In Snohomish County, SAAGs George Appel, Bruce Weiss, Marybeth Dingledy, Millie Judge, Cindy Larsen, Edirin Okoloko, and Janice Ellis, are SAPs and SAAGs for WA AG Bob Ferguson at some point and time in their careers.
Spokane County Judges Annette Please, Rachelle E. Anderson, Michael Price.
In Clark County, Judges Gregory M. Gonzales, Camara L. J. Banfield , John P. Fairgrieve, Jennifer K. Snider, Suzan L. Clark, and Emily A. Sheldrick. The foregoing judges were all former SAAGs and SAPs working for the Washington State’s Attorney General’s Office prior to WA AG Bob Ferguson making their political appointments.
After researching several of the above judge’s criminal history records, we discovered that several judges have been convicted of or charged with crimes. In King County, Judge Jim E. Rogers and Michael Scott were accused of molesting children. In Snohomish County, Marybeth Dingledy, was convicted of drunk driving and was on methamphetamine while driving drunk. Marybeth Dingledy is still hearing and deciding cases while using methamphetamine and often drunk. A process server went to her house with a subpoena and said “ she was high as a kite when she answered the door.”
Judge Annette Please from Spokane County has a drug addiction to cocaine and is using a convicted felon named Charles Fleck to provide cocaine to several Spokane County Superior Court Judges.
In each of the above cases, Lloyds of London and its syndicates, which includes Association of Washington Cities, Cities Insurance of Washington, Washington Association of Counties, and Washington Association of Judges, cover up public officers’ criminal conduct as “risk management.” The best example of Lloyd’s of London’s covering liability as risk management was evidenced by the murder of George Floyd. George Floyd was murdered by a Minneapolis police officer who had eighteen excessive force complaint filed against him before he murdered George Floyd. In each excessive force complaint, Lloyds and its syndicates dismissed complaints as “risk management.” If they had no committed RICO offenses against George Floyd, he would still be alive today.
As for non-profits like Victim Support Services, Dawson Place, and the private Washington State Bar Association, Lloyds of London and its syndicates insure its members. Not only does Lloyds of London insure its members, the Washington State Attorney General’s Office is illegally gifting employees of these private organizations a Washington State taxpayer funded retirement (PERs). As examples, Washington State Bar Association, who the Washington State Supreme Court labeled a “private association” in the Lincoln Beauregard decision, and its employees are solely paid by the taxpayers of Washington State, yet the Washington State Supreme Court held in the Lincoln Beauregard decision, fraudulently, that it does not receive any public monies.
Crystal D. Hill’s Sexually Transmitted Disease Records Became Public Record
In 2008, John Edward Pennington Jr., and his convicted bank frauding wife, Crystal Hill Pennington ( nee Berg), were passing sexually transmitted diseases (STD) to several government officers in Washington State. Crystal Hill ( aka Crystal D Hill) Pennington infected Snohomish County Judge Joseph Wilson, former Gold Bar Chief of Police (2008-2010), Snohomish County Sheriff’s Officer Jeff Ross ( who is married to Snohomish County Superior Court Judge Cindy Larsen), former Snohomish County Executive Aaron Reardon, former Washington Senator, now Washington State Auditor, Steve Hobbs (Lake Stevens), and Prosecutors Mark Roe and Sean Reay with STD.
When the Washington State Department of Health (WA DH) learned that Crystal Hill Pennington and John Edward Pennington Jr. were passing STD to various people, they were sent a letter by the WA DH ordering them to get treated, notify any sexual partner each had, and cease and desist all sexual activity until a doctor certifies that they were clear of infections. Unfortunately for Crystal Berg Hill Pennington, she used the City of Gold Bar’s mailing address because her home was being foreclosed on for non-payment of her mortgage.
According to former clerk Laura Kelly, “Crystal left her door open at City Hall, and Karl Majerle, would come in early and read her mail. Karl used her STD and notification list to STD infected county employees, as leverage for raises, to steal from the city of Gold Bar, and for money pays outs. Karl also knew that Crystal Hill had been twice convicted of bank fraud spent time in jail and had been convicted three times for fraud. He used that information to extort Snohomish County Prosecutors, Gold Bar City Council members, and Crystal Hill into not following through with criminal charges against him.”
In 2008, Gold Bar’s water employee, Karl Majerle was not only caught stealing from the City of Gold Bar, by former council member Dorothy Croshaw, he also sabotaged the City of Gold Bars water system. Majerle was not only guilty of theft of more than $1500, but he was also guilty of Domestic Terrorism under the Patriot Act.
Knowing that Crystal Hill Pennington had infected Snohomish County police officer Jeff Ross, Snohomish County Judge Joseph Wilson, and Prosecutors Sean Reay and Mark Roe with STD, Marjerle used that information to extort Snohomish County Prosecutors Sean Reay and Mark Roe into not reporting Karl Marjerle’s acts of Domestic Terrorism of sabotaging the City’s water system to the Homeland Security.
What the taxpayers of Gold Bar did not know is that Sean Reay and Mark Roe were tampering with the FBI’s National Information Center (NCIC) records as political favors. According to a former Snohomish County Prosecutor “Sean Reay thought Executive Aaron Reardon was going to the Governor’s Mansion. Reay and Roe even had plans to be the next Washington State Attorney General, until the Gold Bar Reporter exposed their RICO conduct. Ironic how Mark Roe was forced to resign from the Washington State Bar Association after the he sexually harassed women and gays inside his office, and Sean Reay was demoted to a handle low level pro se litigants in Snohomish County’s civil unit because of gang banging Crystal Hill” a former Prosecutor said.
Because one of Gold Bar’s council members, Lonn Turner, was also a Monroe Department of Corrections Officer, agreed to commit RICO offenses on behalf of protecting a whore from Gold Bar, WA AG Bob Ferguson stepped in to protect Lloyds of London RICO members from liability. Gold Bar’s former Mayor Joe Beavers, a convicted felon himself, called Crystal D. Hill a whore three times in executive meetings.
We later learned that Joe Beavers had been arrested for and convicted of twice, once for sexually assaulting a woman in a bar in Arlington Texas, and another for passing bad checks in the State of Ohio.
In the Western District of Washington State federal court, Judge Ricardo Martinez, and Richard Jones, who were also a SAAGs for WA AG Bob Ferguson, and who both are still on the Washington State’s payroll, have continuously thwarted any attempt by citizens to hold anyone of the RICO members accountable for their criminal racketeering conduct. Both were appointed under the Direction of Washington’s Governor and Attorney General.
Moving the Pedophile from Parish to Parish
John Edward Pennington Jr. kidnapped, raped, and tried to murder a 5-year-old girl in Cowlitz County Washington in 1992. In 2010, he sexually assaulted a public officer named Diana, inside Snohomish County’s Department of Emergency Management (DEM). He spent hours trying to hack into the Gold Bar Reporter news site while being paid $145,000.00 a year by Snohomish County. He killed 43 people in the Oso mudslides because he was operating a small business, in violation of Snohomish County’s Ordinance that prohibited county salaried employees from holding any other job, instead of mitigating damages in a slide area that Seattle Times reported was major risk to human life since 1968. He was labeled a sociopath “with no empathy for human life whatsoever’ by a King County Superior Court appointed medical doctor Dr. Hedricks, and was diagnosed with Autism. In 2021, he was fired from Overlake Hospital for stalking a mother while on duty as Overlake, and was fired from Pierce College in Tacoma Washington after he sexually and verbally assaulted a student. Then in 2022, he was fired from University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF) for assaulting a professor. Somehow, he was allowed to enter a Ph.D. program at the University of Alaska Fairbanks with false academic credentials. But when we sent a complaint to the OIG Department of Education citing UAF and Pennington’s fraudulent academic credentials, UAF decided to flunk him from UAF Ph.D. program, and he was terminated from teaching classes at UAF because of our news reports.
One less pedophile like John Edward Pennington Jr. collecting a welfare check on the state or federal welfare system is a good day.
The Gold Bar Reporter has written extensively since 2009 about government misconduct. Lloyds of London and its syndicates have been sued before for RICO, and many more are coming against Lloyds syndicates.
