    This is scary and disgusting. It's no wonder an overwhelming percent of people I speak with do not support it and support the boycotting of taxes to pay for this jail. This court is up to bad things. I see no true justice here and I have not witnessed it ever from the Keene courts and it's cronies. Poor Menno. Poor rest of Keene (even more poor because they have to pay for all this surveillance at the point of a gun. I will be dance and sing when this jail is finally closed. I do believe it's closing is inevitable.

    I find it very amazing that these thugs steal so much of your money and livelihood… and for what end? Where does it stop? I don't think George Orwell could have ever predicted it being this bad. The reason I believe this jail closing and the courts closing is inevitable, is that I see and hear so many people who can't believe the people who are getting paid,spent people's tax dollars in such a pursuit (one of infinite many) in such a way. I too find it sickening that the people saying they represent the "state" and/or "county" invest in such futility and seem to assume it is just fine to do this. How they sleep at night I do not understand. I suppose they just don't question it because to do so would mean their paychecks and stolen benefits ("stolen" is the true word) are compromised.

    All of these government cronies are being paid while they are there (your tax dollars at work folks) while Menno has to be there or else they will point guns at him. How can he be contributing to the world and his own livelihood with all this crap going on??? He can't. They don't care because they will just create some new way to fund their debacles, like more fines and traffic highway robberies, and not to do so will injure their worldly positions. Lousy that we see you for what you are huh thugs? This whole thing costs taxpayers thousands. The cure is to stop beating up people who are not just only hurting no one, but peaceful and courageous and caring. The paid employees displayed little civility at best and none of the aforementioned positive attributes. Even the judge tries to shut up Jim Johnson but let's his buddies ramble and ramble. Gotta protect your precious buddies on the old government dole. All this crap costs us thousands and hurts people who were once free. The trappings of this kangaroo court is blatantly obvious to me and everyone.

    If Jesus were here today in the flesh he might likely be telling the thugs to let his people free, and likely others too. This is sickening and I take solace in the belief that all you complicated men and women who trick people with your evil "legal" language will get your due, either here or in the hereafter. Some of which I get to happily see while I'm on this earth. :)

    It appears that there is no equal protection under "the law" to the "subject" as to the gestapo. I'm sick of this crap too. Screw these guys. I'm not paying their extortion fees either. They have zero appearance of "legitimacy" and they know it. The camera is most certainly the new gun. BANG!

  • Libertas

    This prosecutor was leading his witnesses (i.e., making it clear how he wanted his questions to be answered) on almost every question. "Evidence" solicited in this manner is completely inadmissible in court! It is critically important to object to every single question asked in this manner, if not to win the case, then at least to preserve the record for appeal and show judicial error.

    The prosecutor is allowed to ask questions like: "To the best of your knowledge is the time correct in this video?", but NOT "And the time in the video, is that off?"

    The witness must speak from his/her *own personally knowledge* alone. Any alleged facts that are embedded in the question itself are not allowed on direct examination. Cross examination only. Don't allow it, or you will consistently lose in court.

    As a rule of thumb, any "yes/no" question is generally a leading question. Here is a list of some of the more obviously objectionable leading questions (and the answers):

    "And the time in the video, is that off?" (Yes)
    "And this is camera 3, is that correct?" (Yes)
    "And this is camera number 7, is that correct?" (Yes)
    "And this is camera number 6, does it appear to be?" (Yes)
    "in addition to the cameras, are you familiar with the signs posted around the jail property?" (Yes)
    "I'm showing you a document marked as state's exhibit #2, it appears to be a schematic of the jail, do you recognize this document" (Yes, it's a schematic of the jail that we hand out to visitors)
    and so on.

    I highly recommend the "Jurisdictionary" course for detecting and blocking this type of inadmissible evidence in the future.

    Kurt, as you said "the overwhelming majority" of THE PEOPLE YOU SPEAK TO. ….. agree with you. That's obvious, you're not going to hang about with people that disagree with you…REDUNDANT .

    Interesting question for you is……….What about the people you DON"T speak to.

    Just because you speak to a clan of people ( free-keeners/staters) doesn't mean you lot are right, aside from your dream world with NO SOLUTIONS after you take over the world.

  • Howes Consulting

    He runs the cameras, he knows the cameras, he knows the signs. But he doesn't know the Constitution or the concept of public property.

    I bet Keene pays a boatload for their IT department. Look at all the crap running in the taskbar. And no Flash. Sure flash is "insecure" But so is Windows XP.

    I didn't know that media player classic played flash, thanks Ian.

  • Peter

    I'm on board with Kurt., Will and Libertas. Howes Consulting, don't you think they care only for a constitution when it affects them? They trick people into the world of statutes and as I'm sure you are well aware, it's an evil, sick and twisted world of infinite proportions. And Dennis, it must be awful having to rely on such weak faculties. You are however a great banner for persons of your ilk. I love hearing from you because you show just how much ignorance there is to cut through, that is left. Thanks at least for that.

  • Mary

    Poor man. He didn't hurt anyone and he is so nice. This sure like it cost the tax payers (I use that word loosely) like myself a great deal to go after this one man who didn't hurt anyone but was and is still trying to stand up for civility, honesty, truth, valor and most importantly to me, love and caring for his fellow human. They sure look like, sound like, and speak like a gang. How on earth can they even imagine that they have any perception of legitimacy? This young man reminds me of my son. That is why this touches me. Thank you for the reporting on the real issues. Monday, I will be canceling my Sentinel subscription. They never get a story right anyway.

  • DEADLY RESISTANCE

    Lemme get this straight…some people go to the new taxpayer funded county jail, and are told to leave. They don't leave. The cops arrest them, and charge them with the "crime" of "trespassing"(not leaving)…they have a trial. They are convicted. Now, the cops take *them* *TO* the jail, and won't let them leave…Until they force them to leave…Have I got that about correct???…Oh, maybe the "States' "Courts"" aren't so hurting for money after all…The courts in NH are shut down 1 1/2 days per month due to lack of money, but there is plenty of money to prosecute these clowns???…In the Army, we called this a "dog-and-pony show"…Ever been to Tijuana, before the gov't backed drug cartels took over? They had back-alley shows with prostitutes and dogs & ponies. That was fucked up, too. Just like this little daisy-chain cluster-fuck. Who runs this God-forsaken excuse for a "county", anyway?

    Liberty activists don't want to 'take over the world,' retard. Do your homework. Read 'A MArket for Liberty' to get some basic ideas of how people can interact voluntarily to accomplish things that you think only the government can do. Or 'For a New Liberty' by Rothbard. Basically something that didn't come from the Evening 'News'.

    K?

  • DEADLY RESISTANCE

    I recogniize that "Major" John Mousseau character from way back. Ain't seen him in years. He been working as a screw for "15 years", says he, so it must of been 19992 -3, when I was drivin thruough Keene regular. I'd stop in get gas-n-shit at Cumbys' late at nite, & he worked there then. He was fit & trim and in good shape. Now he looks like a bloated couch potato, with those big old sad puppy-dog eyes. Too bad what years of scamming taxpayer money does to a guy. Any latest news on this? Actually, I'm back in town looking for a guy who calls himself Anarcho-Jesse. Anybody seen him? How is he doing? He owes me $30. I will collect, somehow, someday.

  • DEADLY RESISTANCE

    OK-OK, it's not really anarchojeswse i'm looking for, but some punk-ass, anyways And i'm not collecting for me. It is just a job. don't take it personal. don';t take it personal. it is just a job.
