The Ridley Report has published a seven-minute feature on the camera robbery of Garret Ean that was orchestrated and executed by Joseph DiRusso on June 26, 2013.

Premiering in this week’s AKPF #1 timeslot is Aqua Kourt Pillage Feud #01, the first installment of Robin Hood of Keene‘s edited trial highlights from the raw full hearing. The next such occasion is scheduled for September 30 and October 1, unless a motion to dismiss filed by attorney Jon Meyer is granted prior. Last week featured Pete’s testimony chopped down to a format easily consumable by a televisual audience. This week’s video consists primarily of parking enforcer Linda’s testimony, and drudges on indefinitely until details begin to emerge.
