ARIZONA REPUBLIC

Publisher and CEO
"The Arizona Republic"
c/o P.O. Box 1950

ARIZONA REPUBLIC
Subject: Letter from Frank G. Long, dated August 8, 1997
Dear Mr. Oppedahl:
I have received, but not accepted, a letter from Mr. Frank G.
Long, claiming that Phoenix Newspapers, Inc. ("PNI") has
instructed him to take legal action against Me, to obtain a court
order to stop what he alleges to be "unauthorized and infringing
use of ARIZONA REPUBLIC". With that letter, he also enclosed a
copy of a document which he described as "a copy of complaint
that will be filed in U.S. District Court of Arizona and served"
upon Me, unless I deliver to his office by 12:00 noon, Friday,
August 15, 1997, a letter advising PNI that I will:
(1) immediately cease using ARIZONA REPUBLIC on
correspondence or on the Internet in connection with
any publications or related services;
(2) refrain from using ARIZONA REPUBLIC in that manner in
the future;
(3) sign an agreement confirming My acceptance of these
demands.
Mr. Oppedahl, I have very good reasons to believe that Mr. Long
is either entirely ignorant of many important material facts, or
he has deliberately chosen to withhold many important material
facts from you, which you need to know immediately. In an effort
to persuade you to reconsider the action which Mr. Long has
threatened in writing to take, I offer the following for your
careful consideration, review, and verification:
1. Mr. Long refers in his letter to correspondence which I have
been sending to the Pima County Attorney's office.
It is true that I have been sending first class U.S. Mail to the
Pima County Attorney's office. However, this mail is of a very
confidential and sensitive nature, because it concerns several
cases which are currently underway in state and federal courts,
here in Tucson and also in Phoenix. I can only speculate at this
point in time, how it was that Mr. Long obtained access to this
correspondence and its contents. You need to ask him yourself,
how it was that he did so. If and when you obtain an answer from
him, would you please do Me the courtesy of relating his answer
to Me? I would very much appreciate that.
Confidential Letter to John Oppedahl, CEO: Page 1 of 7
For your information, I have requested the Pima County Jury
Commissioner to provide Me with an opportunity to testify to the
currently convened grand jury in Pima County, concerning the
material evidence I now have of probable cause for charging
several government employees and private individuals in Arizona
with numerous violations of federal and state criminal codes.
These cases, which have thoroughly documented the material
evidence to which I refer, are the following:
In Re Grand Jury Subpoena Served on New Life Health Center
Company, United States District Court, Tucson, case number
#GJ-95-1-6
Mitchell v. Nordbrock, Pima County Consolidated Justice
Court, Tucson, case number #CV-97-3438
People ex rel. Mitchell v. Pima County Consolidated Justice
Court, Superior Court of Arizona State, Tucson, case number
#320831
Swan Business Organization v. Ulan et al., Superior Court of
the State of Arizona, Tucson, case number #315580
In Re Eugene A. and Linda H. Burns, United States Bankruptcy
Court, Tucson, case number #96-01624-TUC-LO
In Re New Life Health Center Company, United States
Bankruptcy Court, Phoenix, case number #93-06051-PHX-GBN
In Re J. Fife Symington III, United States Bankruptcy Court,
Phoenix, case number #95-08397-PHX-GBN
U.S.A. v. Wallen, United States District Court, Tucson, case
number #95-484-WDB
I have listed the above cases in part because you have ready
access to the docket files here in Arizona (Tucson and Phoenix).
There are a number of additional cases which I could cite here,
but their files are all in the custody of court clerks who are
located in other states of the Union. Notably, the grand jury
civil case #GJ-95-1-6 and the Wallen criminal case #95-484-WDB,
have resulted in formal Complaints of Judicial Misconduct being
filed with the Clerk of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in San
Francisco, California. I would fully expect that the latter
Clerk will give you access to the docket files for those two
Judicial Misconduct Complaints, upon proper request for same.
Now, with these specific cases as a factual and legal foundation
for what I am about to tell you, I am extremely alarmed that Mr.
Long has admitted, in writing which he transmitted to Me via
Certified United States Mail, that he is already aware of
correspondence which I have been sending to the Pima County
Attorney's Office. For your information, I have had direct
written contact with Mr. David R. White, Chief Criminal Deputy,
and Ms. Carolyn Emerine, Program Director. Because she is the
head of that entire government unit, I would fully expect that
Ms. Barbara LaWall, Pima County Attorney, is also aware of the
Confidential Letter to John Oppedahl, CEO: Page 2 of 7
several written materials which I have already forwarded to Mr.
White and to Ms. Emerine. Please contact the latter individuals
on your own, as soon as possible, to confirm what I am telling
you here. But, please read the rest of this letter first, okay?
Without knowing any more about Mr. Long's method(s) of obtaining
access to the information which I have supplied to the Pima
County Attorney's office, I would have to say that his letter
contains enough incriminating admissions to constitute sufficient
and probable cause for Me to charge him with aiding and abetting
a serious criminal conspiracy. It is evident to Me that the Pima
County Attorney's office is taking affirmative steps to delay
and/or prevent certain essential investigations from proceeding
into the material evidence which I have assembled and cited
above. The criminal violations to which I have been an
eyewitness, and the evidence of which I have already verified
under penalty of perjury, constitute proof of the following
criminal activities:
(1) deprivations of fundamental Rights, under color of law,
including, but not limited to systematic violations of
voting Rights, and jury selection policies;
(2) conspiracy to deprive the fundamental Rights of
Citizens of Arizona;
(3) obstruction of correspondence transmitted through
United States Mail to a federal grand jury;
(4) perjury before a United States District Court and
before a federal grand jury;
(5) tampering with a federal grand jury;
(6) obstruction of justice in proceedings before a United
States District Court and before a federal grand jury;
(7) conspiracy to commit obstruction of correspondence,
jury tampering, obstruction of justice, perjury,
barratry, extortion, and mail fraud;
(8) placing false and misrepresentative statements in
pleadings filed in the United States Bankruptcy Court;
(9) threatening a known federal witness, and retaliating
against a known federal witness;
(10) racketeering and child kidnapping across state lines,
and conspiracy to commit both across state lines;
(11) fraud, bank fraud, mail fraud, and wire fraud on an
Arizona pure trust, and upon the officers of an Arizona
pure trust;
(12) theft of professional services, wrongful termination,
contempt of court, libel, defamation, grand theft, and
aiding and abetting one or more of the above.
Confidential Letter to John Oppedahl, CEO: Page 3 of 7
In support of evidence establishing probable cause for charging
certain individuals, both in and out of government, with the
criminal activities itemized above, I have enclosed, for your
careful review and study, several documents which have already
been filed in the cases cited above. I encourage you to confirm
that these documents have, in fact, been filed, served, and
docketed in their respective cases.
2. In his letter, Mr. Long refers to a complaint that will be
filed in U.S. District Court in Arizona, unless I yield to
his demands [sic].
The so-called COMPLAINT [sic] Mr. Long enclosed with his letter,
in and of itself constitutes further probable cause for Me to
believe that Mr. Long may already be conspiring with the very
same individuals who are active suspects in one or more of the
criminal activities itemized above. I refer specifically to
Richard H. Weare, Clerk of the U.S. District Court in Arizona.
Please note the active role which Mr. Weare has, evidently, taken
in the conspiracy: to obstruct correspondence, to tamper with a
federal grand jury, and to obstruct justice in proceedings before
the U.S. District Court in Tucson last year, in #GJ-95-1-6. See
the enclosed letter to the FBI in Tucson, in particular.
To My knowledge, this conspiracy continues right up to the
present time; I know this, because the Chief Judge of the Ninth
Circuit has failed to act on either of the Complaints of Judicial
Misconduct which I have filed against two (2) federal judges in
Tucson. Mr. Long's draft COMPLAINT is first described by Mr.
Long as a complaint that will be filed [sic], but that very
COMPLAINT already bears civil case number #CIV-97-0025-PHX-EHC.
In other words, it has already been filed in the office of Mr.
Richard H. Weare, and a federal judge has already been assigned.
Therefore, that proceeding has already commenced, but Mr. Long
misleads Me into thinking that he has not yet filed it, and that
it has not yet commenced. What is the truth here, Mr. Oppedahl?
This misrepresentation is probable cause to charge Mr. Long with
transmitting fraudulent and/or deliberately misleading statements
via United States Mail; this is also a federal offense.
There are a number of other misleading and misrepresentative
statements which Mr. Long has already written in his so-called
COMPLAINT. If you do not already have a copy of this so-called
COMPLAINT, I do encourage you to get a true and correct version
of the one which must already have been filed in the office of
Mr. Richard H. Weare, in order for it to bear a valid and
currently active case number.
I do feel that it is My moral obligation to inform you that Mr.
Long is proceeding on the basis of certain assumptions, and
presumptions, that are demonstrably false and which completely
eclipse any integrity his allegations might otherwise have had.
In particular, if he is deluding himself into believing that I am
"profiting" from My activism as a writer, investigator, Counselor
at Law, and federal witness, he is tragically and demonstrably
mistaken. I will now summarize the real losses I have sustained.
Confidential Letter to John Oppedahl, CEO: Page 4 of 7
When I worked for Elizabeth Broderick on her civil and criminal
cases in Los Angeles, she stiffed Me for over $10,000 in legal
services, and loaned Me a car with tampered front brakes.
When I worked for LeRoy Schweitzer and his nineteen (19) other
co-defendants in Billings, Montana, he and his associates there
stiffed Me for over $10,000 in legal services, and then proceeded
to delay and tamper with numerous pieces of legal mail which were
directed to Me, care of their post office box.
When I worked for Sheila Wallen in her criminal case in Tucson,
she stiffed Me for over $3,000 in legal services; her brother
David Wallen aided and abetted Herb Crawford in an act of grand
theft against My private property.
When I worked for the New Life Health Center ("New Life") in
Tucson, the General Manager stiffed Me for over $2,000 in legal
services, and damaged Me in a host of other ways which are
already well documented, and which remain undenied.
When Herb Crawford vacated My apartment very suddenly, because I
demanded that he do so, he took with him over $1,200 worth of
cash and office equipment, this after threatening Me twelve (12)
times when he already knew very well that I am a federal witness.
After Crawford threatened My life, and this after I provided him
with shelter which he told Me he needed desperately, I did not
think it was wise to keep any money around My house. I entrusted
the New Life accountant with $3,000 of My own money, and that
accountant, Mr. Neil T. Nordbrock, then proceeded to embezzle
every last penny of this money, leaving Me destitute and without
essential medical services. Do you have an adding machine?
Mr. Oppedahl, if you do know the secret of squeezing blood from a
turnip, would you please let Me in on this valuable secret?
3. In his so-called COMPLAINT, Mr. Long expresses his desire to
persuade a federal court to order an accounting by Me of all
"profits derived from the providing of services through the
unauthorized use of ARIZONA REPUBLIC" [sic].
Mr. Oppedahl, this statement by Mr. Long makes it very clear to
Me that he, and his unnamed accessories, have much more in mind
than some trivial changes in the way I have chosen to label
envelopes which I transmit through the mail. This statement
expresses his intention to bring down upon Me the criminal force
and undue influence of the very same conspiracy which I have
already identified and documented within the United States
District Court, here in Tucson, in Phoenix, and in other cities
across this nation. Do you want to be the one who was
responsible for authorizing such conduct by Mr. Long? Would you
please do Me the courtesy of an honest answer to this question?
If you are still a bit confused by any of the points which I have
already made in this letter, please find a way to locate and read
the essay entitled "Karma and the Federal Courts" in the Supreme
Confidential Letter to John Oppedahl, CEO: Page 5 of 7
Law Library at http://www.supremelaw.com. The United States
District Court ("USDC") is a territorial court, identical to the
"territorial courts of the United States" which are mentioned in
15 U.S.C. 1121 -- one of the statues cited by Mr. Long in his
so-called COMPLAINT; this is the court he intends to petition.
Arizona is not a territory; it is a Union state, a REPUBLIC, a
star on the flag, under the Guarantee Clause. If the attorney
whom your corporation has hired does not yet understand this all-
important distinction, then you and your corporation may be in
very deep trouble, much deeper trouble than you ever imagined
possible. I am saying this with all honesty, and with great and
sincere earnest, because the conspiracy which I have identified
needs to be contained, not enlarged. I am not referring here to
some grand or vague international oligarchy; I am referring to
the statutory definition of "conspiracy" which Congress has
legislated at 18 U.S.C. 241. Even if you did not know anything
about it before now, your willingness to aid and abet this
criminal racket would still make you and your corporation liable
as accessories after the fact; all the more so, do you now run
the very serious and real risk of criminal complicity, because of
the many statements of material fact which I am sharing with you
here, all of which can, and should, be independently verified by
you before authorizing Mr. Long to proceed as planned.
In conclusion, Mr. Oppedahl, please carefully and deliberately
reconsider the actions which Mr. Long is threatening to take
against Me, as described in his recent letter and in the
accompanying COMPLAINT which he has not only drafted, but also
filed in the USDC in Phoenix, Arizona. I should think that,
after reading and verifying all of the statements which I have
carefully prepared for your confidential review here, you would
at least give Me the benefits of the doubt and of a private
hearing in your office, hopefully in front of witnesses (veteran
reporters perhaps?) and with a good tape recorder going, to
commemorate My verbal confirmations to you, in Person.
I do honestly think that Mr. Long is proposing a course of action
which could very well result in serious damages to your good name
and reputation, and to the good name and reputation of your
excellent newspaper, that are far beyond anything which you can
presently anticipate with any degree of accuracy. I say this,
because of the mountains of litigation in which I have already
been involved since I began this work in 1990. The cases which I
have cited for you above, are only a sample of the overall story
which I have already documented, to the very best of My mental
and physical abilities. The fact that I am still alive today
should be an indication to you that I am getting help, but it is
not the kind of help which comes from a terrestrial source.
Let us now stop to pray and ponder the best course of action for
you, for your company, for your newspaper, for Arizona, and for
the entire nation. I can guarantee to you this much: if you
will humble yourself before the Most High and ask for His special
guidance, you will receive it with unfailing reliability and
strength. You have that on My word, because it is His Word which
I am conveying to you. On His Word you can always rely. Always.
