Police Not Vindicated in One-sided Investigation Bullet #179 REPOST
Originally titled: Police “cleared” in One-sided Investigation? Not So Fast MJEOL Bullet #179 Originally posted at MJEOL: August 16 2004 In an early report from the Lompoc Record, a sourceobviously from either law enforcement or prosecutorssays that the attorney general (AG) of California has cleared the sheriffs department of abuse leveled against them by Jackson.
Despite Jacksons obvious bruises and probable doctors report, attorney general Bill Lockyer has allegedly sided with the police. But, not so fast. More information is coming out surrounding the investigation. It turns out that this investigation was concluded, either purposely or not, without any statements from Jackson or any confirmed information telling his side of the story.
This information was leaked to take attention away from the fact that Sneddon has been caught on tape breaking the gag ordermisusing his power by sending letters to people around this case in order to keep them off tv defending Jackson; breaking attorney-client privilege; police executing warrantless searches of areas of Jacksons Neverland Ranch; and unlawful searches of a lawyers private investigators office. And who knows what else.
The judge, Rodney Melville, already rebuffed Sheriff Jim Andersons motion to release the findings of the attorney general. So, how coincidental after he gets spanked by the judge, the alleged findings are suddenly leaked to the press
