    Deborah discusses death of Tracy Lawrence, rogue Las Vegas notary mortgage fraud whistleblower. Lawrence had admitted that she notarized 25,000 forged mortgage documents between 2005 and 2008. Morphs into comments on S. 1867.

    Callers. Gainan in Texas. The Tracy Lawrence situation. What the powers – bankers – are willing to do to keep their monopoly. Deborah discusses misuse of pepper spray and how the products’ founder is speaking out against common uses by police today.

    Rob in Connecticut takes care of a speed trap in Tyler. TX. Hosts discuss inner soul core convictions that make the traffic/due process fight a worthy one.

    Jim in Ohio talks about alternative non-partisan ways to elect the House. Discussion turns to how to deal with unconstitutional law passed when there is a provision saying that laws passed in conflict with the Constitution are null and void. Deborah and Randy believe the rogue law stands until a court overturns it. Eddie argues that to do so places a creature of the document, the Constitution, above the charter and so the ‘law’ is immediately void.

    Jim believed that the grand jury could achieve the result, but Deborah cited the Williams case to hone the discussion. Randy, reading the ABA Standards for the Prosecutorial Function, discovered that grand juries are supposed to be public. This includes presentations to that body. Only deliberations are private. General discussion on grand juries follows.

    Darren in California asks about FIJA. Deborah reminds listeners that her grand jury power point is on the website. Darren asks about speeding and red light tix; Eddie says for speeding, M for Directed Verdict after State rests. Bill of Pains and Penalties for red light tix. Darren asks about cell phone in skool zone tix. Eddie says that Revenuer cannot know that item held to ear is a wireless device used for communications (vice MP3 listening &c) w/o eavesdropping warrant which he does not have.

    Crystal in Nevada. Grand jury. Mortgage problems in Nevada. Randy suggests using a gem found in many states; pretrial discovery. That will get a recalcitrant banks’ attention.
