Robert L. Lamontagne vs. The State of New Hampshire – An Appeal To Attorney General John Formella

On March 31st of this year I requested that Grafton County Attorney Martha Hornick legally identify Robert L. Lamontagne as a “victim” under New Hampshire’s Victim’s Bill of Rights Act for the criminal due process violations we allege he sustained during his trial.  Unfortunately CA Hornick has appeared to take no action on this.  No disrespect intended to her…  but we’re not interested in sitting around waiting for this case to get older.  We’re appealing to NH Attorney General John Formella immediately to have his Office designate Rob a legal “victim” of state agent misconduct that seems to have cost him his right to a fair trial.

If Rob went to State Prison for nearly ten years on an established practice of willful due process violations in Cheshire County — other people probably did too.  That is an unacceptable disruption in controlling federal constitutional law by state authorities that have no such authority.  The American public shouldn’t tolerate this.  These national rules exist to protect our people uniformly throughout the land.  Defense lawyers have an absolute legal right to know the credibility risks of a witness says the United States Constitution.  State law in New Hampshire makes it a crime of various degrees to conceal this required federal information.

This is so serious of a breach in the public trust in my view that people with badges should be investigating this…  not a blogger on FreeKeene.com.

Nonetheless, we respectfully appeal to New Hampshire Attorney General John Formella to have Rob designated a “victim” of a criminal due process violations that caused him serious harm.

Demand Letter to Keene Police RE: 91-A Compliance

It is a bit ridiculous that I have to do this…  but here is my “Demand Letter” to the Keene Police demanding they comply with NH RSA 91-A.  The next step is filing a formal lawsuit against the City of Keene in the Cheshire County Superior Court.

I know many of you who engage here at FreeKeene.com are skeptical of Mr. Lamontagne’s claims of innocence.  I’d like to think that even if you are one who is skeptical of Rob’s claims that you would agree that the KPD should be complying with state laws regarding public records.

A thorough review of what happened in his case is only possible if we can acquire these records.

UPDATE: 178 minutes after posting this blog and e-mailing the demand letter to Assistant County Attorney Tim Donovan I received the records that were requested.  

The Keene Police Are Not Cooperating With Record Requests As Required By Law

As I wrote in the last blog I published I am presently awaiting a records request that I made to the Keene, NH Police Department on 1/21/25.  That request was made in the form of a letter to the Keene Police Chief, Steve Stewart.

I received an email response from Assistant Cheshire County Attorney Tim Donovan on 1/24/25 that they were unable to locate the records I was seeking.  I reiterated in an email response that same day that I was looking for all department records that pertain to Mr. Robert Lamontagne.  On 1/27/25 Attorney Donovan responded that the request was being forwarded to the Keene Police Records Department for fulfilment.  Oddly, Attorney Donovan also responded that they were not treating my request as a “91-A” records request.

Robert Lamontagne vs. The State of New Hampshire

As many of you know I am not a licensed “Attorney-at-Law.”  I am, however, a former law enforcement officer with some legal experience who enjoys dabbling in legal work as a hobby to help others who find themselves in various legal predicaments.

I recently posted on the Shire Society Forum that I was interested in donating some of my free time to get involved in another legal case.  A gentleman named Robert “Rob” Lamontagne responded and asked me if I would help him with his legal situation.


Please meet Mr. Robert “Rob” Lamontagne

Shire Free Church’s Items Returned By FBI

We have some good news for once from the FBI and the United States Attorney’s Office! After a long legal battle and multiple federal lawsuits, the FBI agreed to return our church property that was illegally seized on March 20, 2016. For those of you not familiar with the backstory, FBI Agents arrived at 73 Leverett Street on that day at 0600 hours and executed search warrant 16-MJ-36-01-06 against the Shire Free Church Monadnock. This raid occurred only two weeks after Minister Mark Edgington on Free Talk Live condemned the FBI for their strategy of running a website that resulted in the distribution of hundreds of thousands of pieces of child pornography to thousands of IP addresses while only making ten arrests. The sealed search warrant was presented in redacted form to the members of the church present for the raid, i.e. Minister Ian Freeman, Parishioner TJ The Spy, and Parishioner James “Robinhood” Cleveland. The warrant alleged that on or about February 20, 2015, someone using the IP address at 73 Leverett Street had accessed the website that was part of the FBI’s vast child pornography distribution network, in violation of 18 USC 2252.

The returned electronic items.

The returned electronic items. Christmas came early!

State v. Joseph Hart – The Case Begins Tomorrow

This blog is made pursuant to NH Rules of Professional Conduct 3.6 (c) (2).  The case is also publicized pursuant to Part I, Article 10 of the New Hampshire Constitution as an attempt to “reform” the government by informing the public of the facts of the case.

Recently an activist named Joseph Hart, who goes by the name Joa, was arrested for filming in the Hillsborough, NH Circuit Court-District Division.  Joa is a past host of Free Talk Live and a freelance journalist who has a popular YouTube channel called Breaking The Flaw where he posted a video about his arrest.

I will be defending him as his non-lawyer representative.

Here are the first filings in the case, apologies that my scanner is not working 100%.  I’m working on getting that fixed.
