Rev. Pinkney Blogtalk Show: Jailer Fired and Framed for Drug Charge for Refusing to Cover-up Murder
Jul 18, 2010

I'm at my daughter's home where the Censorship Force also took over her PCs because I use them sometimes.  I am being prevented from tweeting this at Twitter:

@UN @cxs Former Memphis jailer reveals mentally ill inmates' murder cover-up plots 7/18/10 Rev Pinkney @BlogTalkRadio at 5pm EST #government

Why not try to tweet the message yourself and see if they also stop your free speech?  If Rev. Pinkney's show was about tea party people opposing certain political candidates, the message would be allowed to post.  But instead, it is about mentally ill people's rights being violated.  Therefore, the message is censored.  The mentally ill of all races are frequently abused, killed during lunacy arrest attempts or behind bars, and used for prison profits in America.  But we are NOT allowed to acknowledge it, write about it, or talk about it freely.  Many of America's decision makers are private prison investors.

Police officers and jailers who take their duty to protect and serve seriously sometimes work in corrupt correctional facilities and police departments.  They may be victimized by their co-workers and superior officers for being honest and humane like former Shelby County, Tennessee Deputy Jailer Sergeant Earley Story.  Story will be a special guest on the  5:00 p.m. EST, July 18, 2010 Rev.Pinkney Blogtalk Radio Show to tell how he was fired and falsely charged with a marijuana-related offense in retaliation for refusing to help Shelby County Jail cover up the murder of a mentally ill inmate in 1995.  Rev. Pinkney's Blogtalk Radio Show can be accessed online by browsing for "Rev. Pinkney BlogTalkRado," or listen by phone at (347) 994-3644.  Story began his account about being persecuted for refusing to participate in a wrongful death cover-up during the last 25 minutes of Rev. Pinkney's July 11, 2010 show, which is also available by Googling RevPinkney BlogTalkRadio. 

Earley Story's account of corruption in Shelby County Government was of particular interest to me, since my mentally challenged brother, Larry Neal, was secretly arrested in the county jail for 18 days in 2003 until his death under yet undisclosed circumstances.  The cover-up regarding Larry Neal's murder was more successful than the planned cover-up regarding Mr. Gregory, a mentally ill, gay inmate who Early Story tried to save.  Authorities reportedly planned to say Gregory slipped in the shower instead of admitting the inmate  was murdered.   See the entire article at - http://freespeakblog.blogspot.com/2010/07/former-memphis-jailer-exposes-murder.html  -

If the CENSORSHIP FORCE redirects or deactivates a link, copy and paste it in your browser to go to my blog or just type http://FreeSpeakBlog.blogspot.com (the name is a joke to try to find humor in all of the censorship I endure publishing news to help sick, naked mentally ill prisoners).  In case you did not get to read my Google profile before cyberstalkers rendered most of it invisible on the Internet, see what they are hiding at this link:  http://freespeakblog.blogspot.com/2010/07/censorship-alert-mary-neals-google.html

See some of my cyber censorship videos at YouTube channel - jkempp703.

If you have plans that prevent your tuning in to Rev. Pinkney's BlogTalk Radio Show today to hear the former officer's story, you can hear it later by accessing the link for today's Rev. Pinkney show at Blogtalk.

Hope you are having a great summer!  Thank God, they capped that oil!

DID TENNESSEE EXECUTE AN INNOCENT MAN - PHILIP WORKMAN?
May 18, 2009
DID TENNESSEE EXECUTE AN INNOCENT MAN - PHILIP WORKMAN?

Excerpts from Salon.com News Article
"DOUBT ON DEATH ROW"

Seven of the original eight jurors who condemned Workman now say they doubt he shot Oliver. Five of them have signed sworn statements that they would decided the case differently had they known then what has come to light today. But it is Paula Dodillet, Oliver's daughter, who has attracted national attention for joining those jurors in their pleas for granting Workman clemency. 

- In 1999 the defense finally tracked Davis down in a Phoenix motel room ( a "vagabond alcoholic" who testified as an eye-witness for the prosecution at Workman's trial).  He tearfully confessed on videotape that he saw nothing, but was bullied by members of the Memphis Police Department to testify otherwise. 

-An X-ray (which was not used in Workman's trial, but surfaced 17 years later) shows that the bullet that killed Officer Oliver did not fragment inside his body. This is significant because it most likely was not a .45 bullet - the kind of ammunition Workman's gun used.

[There was a hearing to determine if Workman deserved a new trial.]

-It looked as if the majority of judges would vote in favor of granting Workman a new trial [based on new evidence]. But at the last minute, two senior, or retired, judges - both appointed by Republicans - decided that they wanted to be part of the panel. Senior judges have the right to join deliberations when they choose. Those same judges also happened to be on the three-judge panel that had already denied Workman's request for a new trial. The senior Republican judges swung the en banc vote to a tie.

******************

MARY'S COMMENTARY

NEW INFORMATION: Officer Ronald Oliver, the murder victim, was one of three Memphis police officers who responded to the 911 call when Philip Workman robbed Wendy’s Restaurant on August 5, 1981. Months prior to being killed while attempting to apprehend Workman, Officer Oliver had crossed a police picket line. After the strike, Oliver was placed on guard duty at the jail for a period of time, possibly because of animosity against him by his fellow officers. He was killed almost immediately after resuming street duty.   More about Philip Workman’s case is available at this Wikipedia link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_Workman#1981_Armed_robbery_and_death_of_Lt._Oliver  


Dr. O.C. Smith was the Chief Medical Examiner when Officer Oliver was killed.  His testimony at Workman's trial was key evidence for the prosecution.  Thirteen years later when Workman's execution was imminently pending, Dr. Smith is alleged to have staged a kidnapping -- of himself.  Dr. Smith was found in a stairwell to the Shelby County Medical Examiner's office with his head wrapped in barbed wire, explosives and notes secured to his body.  The notes accused Dr. Smith of lying about bullet trajectory during Mr. Workman's murder trial. 

Despite Dr. Smith's apparent attempts to cast doubt on his damning testimony about bullet trejectory during Oliver's murder without making an outright admission of perjury, and despite other new evidence presented above, Workman was denied a new trial and executed by the State of Tennessee on May 9, 2007, after having spent 17 years on death row and saying final goodbyes to his daughter 4 times.

Dr. Smith was indicted by the feds for staging his own kidnapping and for the explosives, but never stood trial.  Some of the federal attorneys were reportedly dissatisfied about that and quit their jobs over it.  There was discussion around trying Dr. Smith in 2008, but that did not happen either.  One cannot examine Smith's "kidnapping" without possibly exposing other criminals among police officers and higher-ups, and having to examine the possibility that Tennessee denied an innocent man a well-deserved new trial, kept him on death row for 17 years, and killed him in disregard of the fact that the main witnesses used against him had both recanted - Davis, the alcoholic vagabond who police put forth as an eye-witness to Oliver's shooting, and Dr. Smith, who apparently tried desperately to cast doubt on his own expert testimony used to condemn Workman.

I suppose Workman's execution was pretty important to those two retired Republican judges who stepped out of retirement to swing the vote against a new trial for Philip Workman.

DEATH TO THE DEATH PENALTY!

QUESTION:

ANIMALLL.jpg

Philip Workman's case came to my attention while researching the Memphis Coronor's office after the secret arrest and wrongful death of Larry Neal, my mentally ill brother who MPD arrested and held in Shelby County Jail for nearly three weeks, but denied having him under arrest until he died on August 1, 2003.  This was presumably done to kill Larry by depravation of his heart medication because police were tired of "fooling with Larry Neal," as a county employee warned one of his relatives two weeks prior to Larry going "missing."  But despite Larry's numerous arrests caused by his acute mental illness, the State of Tennessee refused to re-hospitalize him as an inpatient, as he had been for about 20 years before many mental institutions were closed in the 1970's.

Although it appears that Workman did not kill Officer Oliver, at least he tried to rob Wendy's and created the chaos that resulted in the officer's death.  My poor brother, on the other hand, was guilty only of being sick and DENIED inpatient care.  The only thing Larry Neal created was a headache for Memphis Police officers who tired of "fooling with" the acutely mentally ill black man who they knew had a heart condition requiring prescription meds.

For being sick, Larry got a back-door death penalty.

The poor copy of the autopsy report we received from the Memphis Shelby County Medical Examiner's office appeared incomplete, and we were informed there was no coronor's inquest or other investigation being done regarding Larry's arrest and death. Despite asking for nearly six years, that faxed autopsy report and Larry's death certificate are the only documentation Larry's family has been able to ascertain on his final arrest and wrongful death. 

The (Johnnie) Cochran Firm Fraud was used to prevent our lawsuit against Shelby County Jail and the State of Tennessee. The USDOJ, which was in oversight of Shelby County Jail following a lawsuit by the USA for aggrevious violations against inmates, refuses to investigate Larry's death.  Dr. O.C. Smith was also Chief Medical Examiner when Larry Neal was autopsied, and it was interesting to learn that Smith seems to have a history of using his position to cover for police.

I can certainly see why those federal attorneys quit their jobs after learning they would not be allowed to take Dr. Smith to trial.  They are probably honest people who found they worked for a corrupt agency that stands AGAINST justice - the USDOJ.

WATCH how the USDOJ in our new administration handles the Secret Arrest and Wrongful Death of Larry Neal and the conspiracy of fraud as well as the endangerment of Larry's survivors to keep his death secret to determine if the USDOJ has actually CHANGED.
