Update on Judge Robert Payne Bribery Scandal
This committee is familiar with the overwhelming proof of federal
crimes and bribery in the case of 4th Circuit District Judge Robert E.
Payne, who has a sufficient reputation for corruption among lawyers in
Virginia that they have a jingle about him:
"Judge Robert Payne is my name,
Federal bribery is my game".
As you know, on 3 April 2004, a victim of Judge Payne's, Dr. Les
Sachs, made a 125-count judicial misconduct filing with 4th Circuit
Chief Judge William W. Wilkins, who passed the material on to Judge J.
Harvie Wilkinson, and then he and Sally Rider's office undertook
circulation of this material to this entire judicial ethics panel.
The basic facts of the case are clear and proven by documents. Judge
Payne banned the freedom of speech and freedom of the press of one of
America's most highly educated citizens, Dr. Les Sachs. Judge Payne
and several lawyers imposed this ban by making threats of illegal
jailing, torment and rape in jail, and murder, preventing the
unconstitutional orders from being appealed. This scheme of banning of
speech and terror, was financed by right wing celebrity extremist and
Republican campaign contributor Patricia Cornwell, who spent a
reported half-million dollars in legal fees and bribery funds to
obtain these services from Judge Payne.
Judge Payne staged what can only be called a fraudulent "show trial".
Judge Payne installed one of his personal friends, a known criminal
named Thomas Roberts, to falsely pose as Dr. Sachs' lawyer. Judge
Payne and Roberts made fraudulent claims, in court transcripts, in
writing, and on the internet, that this Thomas Roberts was a lawyer
for a "First Amendment charity foundation", a so-called "Freedom Works
Foundation" which does not exist, and is purely a fraudulent fiction
created by Judge Payne and Roberts. In fact, Judge Payne's friend
Roberts is still touting this fraudulent foundation on his website,
robertslaw.org.
The proof of multiple federal felony crimes, as held by the FBI and
available to this committee, are in writing and beyond the shadow of a
doubt. Most laughably of course, this fraudulent "civil rights charity
foundation" of Judge Payne and his friend Roberts. Dr. Sachs managed
to obtain documentation of the threats to illegally jail him, and have
him murdered in jail, put in writing by Judge Payne's friends, and
these documents are held by the FBI. Patricia Cornwell and Thomas
Roberts have both committed unmistakable felony perjury on the witness
stand, with documents clearly proving their perjury. Judge Payne told
laughable lies about his friends in the Cornwell group, clearly
evidenced in transcripts. And much more in hundreds of pages of
evidence.
Judge Payne and the Patricia Cornwell group tried to claim that Dr.
Sachs somehow "agreed" to the banning of his own freedom of speech in
a "settlement" where he also supposedly agreed to pay some $100,000
plus 18 per cent interest to Judge Payne's friend Roberts, and somehow
gave up any right to appeal Judge Payne's clearly illegal and
unconstitutional orders. This is quite obviously absurd fiction. Aside
from the documents proving fraud and extortion by Judge Payne and his
friends, Dr. Sachs had no assets at the time of the extortion, and no
incentive or motive for not appealing Judge Payne's illegal orders,
other than the threats to have him jailed and murdered. After this
initial extortion, Dr. Sachs then became subject to a further
financial extortion of money by Judge Payne's friend Roberts, as the
price of his being allowed to stay alive and out of jail.
Dr. Sachs contacted thousands of lawyers in an attempt to fight the
Patricia Cornwell - Judge Payne bribery scandal, but lawyers in
Virginia, well aware of Judge Payne's reputation for bribery and
brutality, and the Virginia culture of judicial bribery, were too
afraid to confront the scandal despite the overwhelming proof of
federal crimes. Faced with escalating threats of jail and murder in
jail, and Judge Payne's friend trying to extort money from Dr. Sachs,
Dr. Sachs was forced to abandon the USA. He has escaped to freedom and
safety in Europe and Canada, protected by other governments, and is
exposing this scandal.
This judges of this committee, so far inactive on this bribery
scandal, may be tempted by the thought that such affairs need to be
swept under the rug, rather than reveal to the American people how
corrupt some judges have become. However, this may not be the wisest
course for the committee. Consider the following:
Ashcroft cover up of this scandal is a political issue that may
backfire on everyone. The FBI agents in Richmond and Norfolk, who hold
much of the evidence of these crimes, have expressed fear of Attorney
General John Ashcroft in pursuing the crimes of this Patricia Cornwell
- Judge Robert Payne bribery scandal. Patricia Cornwell, in addition
to being a major contributor to George Bush's Republican party, and a
neo-nazi-type extremist, is also a lesbian with a drug abuse problem,
who has had a friend of President Bush living in her house. The
exposure of these crimes and the cover up, could be embarrassing for
the George W. Bush election campaign.
All of the judges on this panel are appointees of Republican
presidents, so all the judges here may be inclined to provide service
to Republican politicians, especially when the only service required
is inaction. However, the judges of this panel need to consider
whether these crimes will eventually be prosecuted, thus creating a
backlash of embarrassment for the entire judiciary and for this
committee. With such blatant evidence of felony crime as we have here
in the Judge Payne bribery scandal, even the Bush-Ashcroft government
is promising the prosecution of the Cornwell group "after" the
November election. This may of course be just a delaying tactic. But
if John Kerry wins the election, there is increasingly likelihood of a
prosecution of the Cornwell group, and the impeachment of Judge Payne,
to help curb the Republican-influenced judiciary.
An upcoming major book on the Patricia Cornwell - Judge Robert Payne
bribery scandal. As can be expected, with Dr. Sachs now having escaped
America to find freedom in other countries, there is a new major
bestseller-type book coming out on the Judge Payne bribery scandal,
entitled "The Patricia Cornwell Show Trial Scandal: Kangaroo Courts
and the Banning of Free Speech in America's Failing Legal System."
This book is set to appear in early 2005, and the first ch
