Time Is Running Out for Lloyd’s of London’s, Washington State RICO Unit
Part Five of Ten
By J.P. Zenger
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

On March 8, 2022, at 11:18 a.m., the offices of Snohomish County, Washington government seemed the same as any other morning. There were two exceptions. In the main reception area, the unseasonal smell of freshly cut grass drifted in through the partially open window on an unusually clear and sunny 46-degree day for early March. Nothing remotely suggested that a metaphoric F5 storm loomed just over the horizon.
The second exception to routine was the presence of a federal agent serving a subpoena. Compelling records about members of the largest RICO in the history of Washington State. The subpoena is expected to be the first of many. Over the next few months, dozens of local and state government offices, public officials, and private law firms are predicted by legal experts to be next. The storm with the power to eviscerate the RICO and the lives of its members thus announced its imminent arrival in Washington State.
After 15 years of effort by Washington State’s Gold Bar Reporter, together with its growing network of 13 volunteer attorneys, 86 victims and their families, hundreds of public records requests, and a lengthy investigation by federal law enforcement, the Washington State unit of what is now proven to be a massive global RICO operated by Lloyd’s of London appears to be rapidly nearing its end, according to voluminous evidence and insider testimony.
The RICO was deconstructed by the Gold Bar Reporter after retaliation by RICO member John E. Pennington, Jr., as chronicled in this series, “Seattle’s Epstein.” As explained earlier in the series, one of several cogs in Lloyd’s complex RICO machine is estate, probate and guardianship fraud involving billions of dollars. “We really lucked out,” said John Scannell, an appellate attorney in the 9th Circuit. “At the end of over a decade’s work, when choosing model RICO cases to bring to national attention, we found what is alleged to be a model case of estate fraud.” Luck may have little to do with the extended public interest group’s ongoing success.
For his part, Mr. Scannell is clearly a remarkable person. One of the few people in the history of the state to get a perfect SAT Score, he has a degree in physics from the University of Washington, is an accomplished chess champion, and has a decades-long history of public interest litigation with hundreds of millions of dollars of impact. He has rarely charged for his work and has a national reputation as “The Wizard of Laws.”
Mr. Scannell’s associate Anne Block, J.D., is equally remarkable. She worked through law school as a machinist while raising her infant daughter as a single mother. An award-winning investigative journalist, she inherited from her social activist New England parents a 163 IQ, their tireless Yankee work ethic, a blunt Boston bravado, and instilled in her an obligation to actively challenge corruption – regardless of the time or cost required. “They considered our historic Bostonian civic duty sacred,’ she said. “So do I.”
Luck may also have little to do with how the group’s associates discovered their model estate fraud case. In 2019, a guardianship victims’ relative, semi-retired major media journalist Mr. Greenwald joined the Gold Bar Reporter network. He acquired state-of-the-art fraud detection software, and began to process Washington State records. “We now discover patterns of fraud and relationships in seconds that until a couple of years ago would have taken thousands of hours and was only used by the NSA and CIA,” he said.

Openly Corrupt King County Commissioner Carlos aka “Crazy Carlos” Velategui is a Key Member of a Vast Washington State RICO
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“It’s hard to overstate the significance of the new fraud analysis software. It’s like we are dealing with 19 century bank robbers who have no idea what a computer is. The software uses artificial intelligence and ‘Big Data’ in such complex and sophisticated ways that it really is science fiction come true. We have the next best thing to a brain scanner. After we find the patterns and cases, the same judges, attorneys, and public officials appear. We then contact the victims and their heirs.
The model case that the group discovered is the estate of the late Robert Cannon. “It’s the perfect fraud case,” said Mr. Greenwald. “We have an openly corrupt commissioner, Carlos aka ‘Crazy Carlos’ Velategui, and a plaintiff, Henry Cannon, who was an employee of King County and a friend of several judges. It couldn’t be better,” he stated. “This is our dream case. Velategui was already on our short list of the most corrupt judges in the state before his initial retirement two years ago. We are also reviewing all of the cases of Hanis Irvine Prothero.
“Known to be one of the most openly corrupt King County, Washington judges for his entire career, Velategui continues to fraudulently exhume himself from retirement like a crypt keeper of public corruption whose rotting hand clutching a fistful of stolen dollars rises from the grave in a “B” movie. But he couldn’t do it without the help of his friends in King County government,” said Mr. Greenwald. “They know who he is and what he does.”
Upon discovery of the Cannon estate case, the group reached out to an estate creditor with their evidence. The effort to elevate public attention about Velategui, other colluding public officials, and the firm Hanis Irvine includes two websites focused on Velategui and Hanis Irvine to assist victims with the automation of filing federal criminal complaints, to function as central repositories for evidence, and to collect and package evidence for a civil class action. “We have large national firms interested before the sites are fully live on May 15,” said Mr. Greenwald.

Patrick M. Hanis, the Law Firm Hanis Irvine Prothero and its staff are the subject of a RICO Investigation.
“It’s all about focus. In addition to Pennington, who really revealed the entire RICO, we are focusing on a relatively small number of public officials and attorneys. Our greatest asset is their arrogance. We will keep packaging evidence and sending it to federal authorities in D.C. We know how much collusion there is between the RICO members and public officials in the Western District,” said Anne Block, Publisher of the Gold Bar Reporter.
For his part, Patrick Hanis is a key subject of the Gold Bar Reporter investigation. In addition to his involvement in probate and guardianship cases of interest, Mr. Hanis has acted as a Commissioner for King County Water District #111 since February 2004, which serves the areas of Meridian Valley and Lake Meridian in Kent. During that time, he and his law firm have represented clients with water rights issues.

Charles Wilson is Being Investigated for His Decisions Involving Clients of Hanis Irvine

Gary G. Cline is Being Investigated for His Decisions Involving Clients of Hanis Irvine
“We are examining every case of record and alleged conflicts of interest between Water District 111, Mr. Hanis, Hanis Irvine, and its staff, clients, Mr. Charles Wilson, and Mr. Gary G. Cline,” said Ms. Block. “Beyond that, I can no longer comment.”

UNIVERSITY OF ALASKA FAIRBANKS’s Employee John Pennington Explains His Support And “Outspoken Advocacy” of Abortion Rights
© By J.P. Zenger, for the Gold Bar Reporter, Reporting from Fairbanks, AK USA

Killer and Serial child rapist John Pennington explains his unwavering support of abortion as being “about consistency”
Fairbanks, AK USA “I may have committed negligent homicide of 43 people, and am currently an alleged ‘person of interest’ in some other supposed homicides and disappearances of underage children across a few states and Canada, but it’s really about consistency,” said John Pennington, aka “Seattle’s Epstein,” reflecting on his well-known support of abortion. “I mean, I may be called a murderer, but at least I’m not a hypocrite.”
The nationally infamous serial criminal took time from his schedule as a public official and Faculty Member of the University of Alaska for a remarkably candid, if not confessional, interview with the Gold Bar Reporter to explain his international activism as a leading supporter of abortion rights. “I want to be very clear about my position on abortion,” he stated with emphasis, “I not only support abortion, but I also support it in any circumstance through the third trimester of pregnancy. In fact my personal philanthropy has focused exclusively on supporting abortion rights, and personally paying for dozens of abortions.”
Mr. Pennington has, in fact, illustrated his point of conviction and degree of advocacy of the right to end life through his own personal experience, as is reflected in the public record. In Seattle, when Mr. Pennington and his former wife had a disagreement about carrying their own child to term, he took matters into his own hands to tangibly express the extent of his passion and no-compromises position about the right to terminate a pregnancy. John Pennington nearly beat his ex-wife to death while she was in her third trimester of pregnancy. He had done the same to other former spouses and girlfriends as well. Repeatedly.
“Look at my track record. Of course I support abortion in all its forms, whether done through a licensed clinic, a veterinarian, a midwife, or even in a back alley,” said Mr. Pennington. “It’s an established fact that I was responsible for the death of 43 people. Wouldn’t it be kind of silly if I went around saying I was pro-life?” he said, “Actually, it would be nothing short of ridiculous,” he emphasized. Mr. Pennington’s court-ordered psychiatric evaluation by Dr. Marsha Hendricks in Seattle concurred, concluding that he has “no empathy for human life whatsoever.”
Another court-appointed psychiatric evaluation by Dr. Ableben Z. Hintritt of Los Angeles, California concluded that Mr. Pennington’s:
“…severe Asperger’s, together with a long history of incest and reciprocal extreme domestic violence from a very young age that involved both his mother and grandfather has resulted in a deeply disturbed and dangerous psychopath with behavior manifesting in dissociative identity disorder, commonly known as a ‘Jekyll and Hyde’ personality.’”
Dr. Hintritt further predicted that:
“Mr. Pennington’s disorders will be regularly triggered by seemingly random events, and will continue to result in severe outbursts and physical violence, including inevitable threats to human life. When those trigger events occur, he has no capacity whatsoever to control his behavior, degree of internal agitation, and external violence and harm that will predictably manifest during those events. Mr. Pennington is a headline waiting to happen,” said the internationally regarded Psychiatrist. Dr. Hintritt’s prediction was prophetic. The headlines have appeared all over the world.
“By far the greatest danger of Asperger’s patients who also manifest psychopathy and antisocial behavior is their ability to study and mimic the behavior of others, and thus to appear normal until any number of trigger events occurs,” stated Dr. Hintritt in his report to the Court. “This is very disarming in the case of Mr. Pennington, as the subject is highly intelligent, presents with a distinguished and attractive appearance, and yet as accurately cited in the previous analysis by Dr. Hendricks, Mr. Pennington has absolutely no capacity for human empathy whatsoever,” he said. “The combination of his disorders, together with a complete absence of any moral compass makes Mr. Pennington as dangerous as any subject I have ever assessed,” stated the noted Psychiatrist and profiler of serial killers, including fellow Seattle murders Ted Bundy, Gary Ridgeway, and dozens of others.
“Mr. Pennington’s consistently violent criminal behavior precludes any rational possibility of functioning in society. Permanent involuntary confinement without the possibility of parole is the only conceivable option.”
Mr. Pennington’s support for abortion goes well beyond his financial support. Several restraining orders have been issued against him for harassing pro-life advocates at their homes, protests, and even their offices. Mr. Pennington’s harassment of public pro-life protests has involved him both “mooning” and sexually exposing himself to groups of protesters, including children. The investigations and/or prosecutions of all of these incidents and charges have been blocked, sealed, and/or dismissed by the many judges and public officials whom he and his wife have directly or indirectly extorted and continue to extort.
Consistency indeed. John Pennington’s demonstrated position on a child’s right to life and protection has been equally consistent throughout his entire life. A serial rapist of very young children since he was a teenager, the cases of his rape of boys and girls span the country. After violently raping several children in his hometown of Nashville, Tennessee, he raped several boys at his church in San Diego. He then raped and attempted to murder a five-year-old girl in Cowlitz County, Washington. According to the lead detective in the case, Maurice Saxon, “John Pennington is the man who raped and tried to murder that little girl.”
After the child rapes in San Diego, he fled California. Relocating to Washington State, he found an uncontested seat in the Washington State Legislature, representing a sparsely populated community. Using his new position as a state legislator, he actively “socialized” at every possible venue with his fellow legislators. The socializing included countless “meetings” at several private and public “swingers” clubs that feature spouse swapping and every conceivable related activity. He then arranged private flights with lobbyists and legislators to Portland, Oregon to have sex with underage victims of child trafficking. With and without the knowledge of the legislators, he took pictures. Those pictures, together with those taken during his current wife’s politically targeted promiscuity at Mr. Pennington’s direction, has allowed the Penningtons to continuously blackmail judges and politicians. Those judges and politicians have, in turn, pressured lower ranking public officials to forego investigation and/or prosecution of countless of the Pennington’s crimes.
The Legislators who occupied office concurrently and “socialized” with Mr. Pennington, and/or who have been subject to his blackmail, include Washington State’s Attorney General, Bob Ferguson, Judge Eric Lucas, Judge Joe Wilson, Marlin Applewick, Commissioner Jeffrey Gibbs, in addition to several other public officials. His extortion has resulted in those politicians and public officials erasing Mr. Pennington’s criminal history on the FBI’s NCIC criminal database, pressuring prosecutors to forego prosecution of dozens of crimes, including child rape, and one of the most visible, and egregious, and extensive cases of negligent homicide in the history of the United States.
In one example of his ability to evade or defer justice, Mr. Pennington’s rape of the five-year-old girl in Cowlitz County, WA, was to be prosecuted by a Kelso City Prosecutor Michael Kenyon. Directly after Mr. Pennington assumed state office, however, “The rape kit for the investigation disappeared, several witnesses were never called, and the case never went to trial. Pennington was never even charged. Michael Kenyon directly aided and abetted Pennington, a violent serial child rapist, and went from his $43,000 a year job with Cowlitz County, WA to receiving millions of dollars in state government legal services contracts. Pennington went free. Is that a coincidence?” said a former Police Detective and private investigator. The little girl, who barely survived, got a lifetime of night terrors, according to her mother.
The most dramatic example of the power of Mr. Pennington’s blackmail is the fact that his negligent homicide of 43 people, homes, animals, and related economic impact of over two hundred million dollars was never prosecuted. “John Edward Pennington Jr. got his job as director of FEMA’s Region 10 through fraud, according to the Seattle Times. The story is covered by dozens of major media outlets across the world. He repeatedly lied to the press about his failure to disclose the slide risks to residents. And he’s fired for stealing FEMA money, but never prosecuted? How is it possible to get away with murder and federal fraud in broad daylight. In front of the entire world?” said a FEMA insider.

Roughly Half of the People in Washington State Killed by John Edward Pennington Jr.
When told of Mr. Pennington’s current employment in a $100,000+ position as the “Deputy Director of the Center for Arctic Security and Resilience” with the State of Alaska, referencing himself on the State website as “an internationally recognized emergency/disaster management and public policy professional,” the otherwise calm and professional FEMA insider responded with an extended series of expletives, followed by “Are you serious? Who in God’s name let this happen, and how on Earth is it remotely possible for this murdering child rapist con artist to get a job in government, again? This is insane.”
“Like I said, it’s about consistency,” concluded Mr. Pennington in relation to his tireless support of the right to end life, abruptly ending the interview, “I can’t stand hypocrites.”

Snohomish County Prosecutors and attorneys tampering with FBI National Crime Information Center data
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.
