Editor’s Note: “Lawfare” was not invented when Donald Trump ran FOR President of the USA. However, Lawfare has been used against Robert A ever since he published his first articles in letters to the Editor to the Shelby Star and later in his own newsprint Citizens For Good Government and later still in an online Citizens For Good Government.org. Corruption everywhere, wherever it exists. NEVER likes to be exposed. And, when exposed, the results are always the same-LIES, DECEPTION and RETALIATION!!!
Robert A picked up his mail on November 12, 2024 and found something interesting. Another anonymous letter, postmarked November 5, 2024, made out to Citizens For Good Government, but with NO Return Address. Robert A has received many such letters over the years. Emails too with phony sender addresses. People are scared to speak-up about the corruption going on within Cleveland County government and agencies” and Robert A is not afraid to identify a skunk as a “SKUNK.” A crook as a “CROCK” A liar as a “LIAR.” And so forth. All properly identified as opinions, conclusions, rumors etc. All believed to be 100% TRUE and ACCURATE Statements with plenty of supporting information to justify those opinions, conclusions, etc. Often times, an anonymous letter has put Robert A onto the right path to discover the of the who, what, when and how of the matter.
THIS anonymous letter was different! This time the letter contained a single page. Someone had gone down to the Courthouse and conducted a “Criminal Records Background Check” on Robert A and then sent that information to Robert A with no other statements or message. Apparently, SOMEBODY thinks that Robert A can be blackmailed by this information. That Robert A is scared or ashamed or something along those lines that this information might get out amongst the citizens and taxpayers of Cleveland County such that Robert A will cease and desist his political investigations and reports and cower-down like everybody else in Cleveland County.
What a FOOL and a COWARD this anonymous wannabe blackmailer truly is!!! And STUPID too! And, when Robert A calls somebody a fool, a coward and stupid too, the names of Kevin Gordon, Johnny Hutchins, Robert Queen, Joel Shores and Ron Humphries immediately comes to Robert A’s mind. Along with a few others.
First of all, Robert A is not afraid, or embarrassed or anything else about the misleadingly phony contents of this Criminal Records Report. They are all false and have been well proven false at the highest of levels many, many (30) years ago. The report is included at the end of this article, along with a copy of the envelope without a return address. No, Robert A is NOT afraid of such a stupid and phony attempt to shut-up Robert A. Actually, Robert A welcomes this opportunity to once again set this phony record straight. And show YOU voters, taxpayers and citizens of Cleveland County just how SILLY, GULLABLE and UNEDUCATED YOUR elected officials believe (know) YOU really are!!
At this point, temporarily scroll on down to the Criminal Records Report shown below. There are four items. The top three items sprung out of one single event over 309 years ago. Case Numbers are also shown. So, anybody that wants to check this out can easily stroll on down to the CC Courthouse and look them up. Also note that every entry is clearly marked as being Voluntarily Dismissed! The District Attorney in every entry was the Court Official who asked the Judge to Dismiss the Case. Robert A was asking for a Jury Trial. The DA had brought the cases for unfavorable publicity against Robert A, knowing that NO jury would convict Robert A on such flimsy and made up evidence. This was “lawfare”, Cleveland County style and thirty years ago. Thank you, you would be blackmailer. You have GIVEN Robert A the opportunity and the incentive to “whip ass” the ones who are responsible for this blackmail attempt. Folks, read every word of this story as this could easily happen to YOU.
Folks, Notice that the top two charges are Felony Charges. Also note that Robert A was a Nuclear Engineer working in the Nuclear Industry, Including the Department 0f Defense (Nuclear Submarines and Nuclear Aircraft Carriers) as well as the Department of Energy at the Savannah River Project (Nuclear Weapons) and the Commercial Nuclear Industry (Nuclear Power Plants). All of which required National Security Clearances that were provided by the FBI. All these phony charges were also sent to the FBI by Robert A for review at that time as a requirement for those Security Clearances to be maintained. And the FBI investigated and cleared Robert A of all those phony and dismissed charges.
But there is more to those top two felony charges that every citizen in Cleveland County should be interested in.
That Second Felony Charge on the list below was actually the first charge in chronological order. CC DA Bill Young and CC Sheriff Dan Crawford were PO’d at Robert A for telling on them for their various corrupt actions in office. In a situation with a juvenile delinquent son of a woman Robert A was dating at that time about 30 years ago, Sheriff Dan Crawford and DA Bill Young believed they had the opportunity to “screw over” Robert A with that second false felony charge. Sheriff Crawford even called the woman, telling her that she had to help “put away” Robert A or he would make sure that her son would be taken away from her by the CC DSS. The woman calmly told Sheriff Dan Crawford that when his call came in her answering machine picked up just as she picked up the phone and she had NOT stopped the answering machine from recording all of Sheriff Crawford’s threats. So, Folks, THAT second on the list Felony Charge against Robert A was immediately dismissed by District Attorney Bill Young.
However, Robert A was not about to let this stupid kind of “lawfare” just go away without a response. So, Robert A writes another set of articles or two about this CC Lawfare and other corruption by Sheriff Dan Crawford, DA Bill Young, the CC DSS and Commissioners. And then the Sheriff’s Department comes out and arrest Robert A again for the exact same thing. But with another case number. That is the first case on the list.
Again, DA Bill Young refuses to try the case. And, again, Robert A notifies the FBI of this second charge. But, in those days, the FBI required Guilty verdicts before they would revoke security clearances to work in the Nuclear industry. Also, during this time Robert A took a Nuclear Plant assignment in Wisconsin. Partly because the pay was excellent, but mostly because Robert A was setting a trap for Sheriff Dan Crawford and DA Bill Young and others. Robert A believed that the Circle of Corruption in Cleveland County positively knew they could NOT get a conviction by a jury in open court so they would try something else. Robert A calculated that the Sheriff and DA would set a trial date and not tell Robert A about it. And, when Robert A didn’t show up for the trial, the DA would issue a Fugitive Warrant against Robert A. So, Robert A, with some inside the Courthouse information would immediately and secretly come back to Cleveland County from Wisconsin, show up in court the day the trial was set, and demand that the case be tried immediately.
Also, Robert A had hired a hot-shot no-nonsense Attorney from outside Cleveland County to try the case. When Robert A called his attorney and told him about the DA’s plan and Robert A’s plan, Robert A’s Attorney said “NOooo!” This Cleveland County District Attorney has not only attacked YOU (meaning Robert A) but, he has also attacked ME. I’m going to put an end to this right now.”
So, on the day of the expected Trial, Robert A shows up at the CC Courthouse, Robert A’s witnesses show up and Robert A’s Hot-Shot Attorney shows up too. And when DA Bill Young comes into the Courtroom, Robert A’s Attorney immediately confronts CC DA Bill Young. “Why did YOU not give me notice of this trial” Robert A’s Attorney demands from DA Bill Young. DA Bill Young lies and says that he did notice Robert A’s Attorney. Robert A’s Attorney looks DA Bill Young strait in the eyes and says loudly: “Are YOU Calling ME a liar??? I will have you disbarred for this.” DA Bill Young instantly dismissed this second Felony Charge (that was the same as the original Felony Charge against Robert A). Robert A went back to Wisconsin, and later Minnesota, Michigan, The Savannah River Site (Nuclear Bomb related) and Charlotte, all under high-level National Security Clearances.
AS a wind-up to this Cleveland County Lawfare against Robert A, Robert A, in anticipation of something like this obvious blackmail attempt as previous described and shown below, decided to apply for a Conceal Carry Permit. A permit that would certainly have been denied if anything in this Blackmail letter was true.
So, Robert A signed up for the Permit training over at Gaston Community College, obtained all the paperwork and application in secret, filled everything out properly and had everything in order. Robert A also listed the CC Senior Superior Court Judge John Gardner, CC Sheriff Dan Crawford and the CC District Attorney Bill Young as personal references, knowing that if any of them gave Robert A a bad reference, THEY would be in trouble with the FBI, the SBI and perhaps others. The Conceal Carry Permit application was submitted in Cleveland County and approved within the timeframe allowed.
However, Robert A NEVER carried a weapon in a concealed manner and eventually let the permit expire. But, since somebody like Kevin Gordon, Johnny Hutchins, Robert Queen, Ron Humphries, Joel Shores, Betsy Wells and perhaps others are trying to blackmail Robert A with false, misleading, phony and deceptive information; Robert A has decided to reapply for a Conceal-Carry Permit all over again. Only this time Robert A will list Superior Court Judge Sally Kirby-Turner, Sheriff Alan Norman and DA Mike Miller as personal references.
Folks, life is good in Cleveland County when the truth of the matter and the proof of the matter are 100% on your side. And, you don’t particularly give a damn for the opinions of low-information voters and those who are totally content to just go along to get along.
Also Note that the only thing Robert A blocked out in the information below is his Birthdate. Everyone should protect their personal information from the many scammers on the internet and the Robo-Calls.
Stay tuned folks! Robert A has been recently tuned in to the blockbuster news about the landslide election of Donald Trump as President and the Republicans taking the US House and the US Senate Elections. Happy Days are here again and most of the voters in the US know it.
