RESPONSE BRIEF IN SUPPORT OF PLAINITIFF'S OBJECTION TO

DEFENDANT OFFICER PORTER'S MOTION TO DI SMISS

Officer Porter's Brief In Support of Defendant Officer R.B. Porter's Motion

To Dismiss, page 2 11 : starts by claiming Plaintiff's complaint is "barred by the

applicable statute of limitation" ; Secondly, "state law claims are barred by his

failure to provide ante-litem notice . . ." ; Thirdly, "this Court lacks subject-matter

jurisdiction . . the Rooker- Feldman Doctrine" ; these all fail as a matter of law .

abide by the law and protect. Officer Porter violated his Oath of Office, failed in

of Law "This statute makes it a crime for any person acting under color of law,

"set-up" Plaintiff, thereby violated Federal and State Law and has destroyed the

public's respect for and belief in Officers and the Law .

Even an untrained Officer knows that crimes are investigated by law

enforcement, not Case Workers without the training and authorization to do legal

elder abuse investigations .

Officer Porter having Faxed his reports to a case worker with Family and

Children Services was deliberated to prevent the proper authorities from doing an

investigation, and to prevent Plaintiff s ability to have legal aid represent him and

protect Plaintiffs Civil and Constitutional R ights.

"Acts under "color of any law" i nclude acts not only done by federal, state,
or local officials within the bounds or limits of their lawful authority, but also acts
done without and beyond the bounds of their lawful author ity; provided that, in
order for unlawful acts of any official to be done under "color of any law," the
unlawful acts must be done while such offic ial is purporting or pretend ing to act in
the performance of his/her offic ial dut ies. This definition includes, in addition to
law enforcement officials, individuals such as Mayors, Council persons, Judges,
Nursing Home Proprietors, Security Guards, etc ., persons who are bound by laws,
statutes ordinances, or customs ."
"Punishment varies from a fine or imprisonment of up to one year, or both,
and if bodily injury results or if such acts include the use, attempted use, or
threatened use of a dangerous weapon, explosives, or fire shall be fined or
imprisoned up to ten years or both, and if death results, or if such acts include
kidnapping or an attempt to kidnap . . . or an attempt to k ill, shall be fined under th is
title, or imprisoned for any term of years or for life, or both, or may be sentenced
to death." http ://www.flai . o~ v/hq/c_idlcivilrights/statutes.htm

3 Nonfeasance -- failure to perform an act which one is obligated to do either

by law or directive due to omission or failure
 Case 1:06-cv-02954-WSD Document 40-1 Filed 02/28/2007 Page 5 of 22

Officer Porter conspired with other defendants to intentionally deprive

Stegeman of property, Civil and Constitutional rights, immunities and equal

protection4 under O.C.G.A. § 30-5-1, U .S. codes : Title 18 U.S .C. § 241, §242 (see

fn12/ & fn13I}, Title 42 Chapter 126 § 1210I (Findings and Purpose), § 12102 (State

Immunity), and § 12103(Prohibition against Retaliation) ; all are part of:

"Protection of Disabled" as shown in Plaintiff's complaint .

The facts and evidence clearly shows that the disabled, Pro Se Plaintiff, is a

victim of criminal acts by these defendants . Crimes which carry fines, sentences

and jail time.

T. ARGUMENT AND CITATION OF AUTHORITY

Plaintiffls Claims Are Not Barred By Statute Of Lim itations

1 . The violations listed in the complaint are on-going, they have not stopped .

2. Plaintiff suffered his claims due to actions recognized as crimes by the State

of Georgia and under the laws of The United States, Plaintiff is a victim of crime

for which the statute of limitations is six yearns .

4 malfeasance : n . intentionally doing something either legally or morally

wrong which one had no right to do . It always involves dishonesty, illegality or
knowingly exceeding authority for improper reasons ._http :l/dictionarv.law.comJ:

5 O.C .G.A. § 9-3-99 . The running of the period of limitations with respect to
any cause of action in tort that may be brought by the victim of an alleged crime
which arises out of the facts and circumstances relating to the commission of such
 Case 1:06-cv-02954-WSD Document 40-1 Filed 02/28/2007 Page 6 of 22

3 . Further, Plaintiff has just recently discovered information that had been

withheld in order to prevent his filing a complaint at an earlier date .

4 . Plaintiff alleges that he has been denied Due Process and Equal Protection :

"Procedural due process requires the opportunity to be heard -this requires notice

and opportunity to be heard . See Cleveland Bd. Of Educ . V. Loudermill, 470 U.S .

532, 542 (1985)" Plaintiff alleges that he was denied Equal Protection - he was

treated differently from similarly situated persons and this treatment was the result

of state action . "(T)o properly plead an equal protection claim, a plaintiff need only

allege that through state action, similarly situated persons have been treated

disparately." Thimen v. Bibb County, Ga ., Sheriff s Dep't. 233 F .3d 1231, 1237

(11 ~' Cir. 2000).

5 . Because Officer Porter along with defendants "Hughett" and "Carlock"

conspired with each other and others to deprive Plaintiff of his Civil and

Constitutional Rights, falsifying reports and documents, perpetrated a fraud6 .

6 . The aspersions cast by the defendants against the Plaintiff alleged that he

alleged crime committed in this state . . . provided that such time does not exceed
six years .

6 extrinsic fraud : n. fraudulent acts which keep a person from obtaining

information about his/her rights to enforce a contract or getting evidence to defend
against a lawsuit

was going to kill his elderly aunt . Plaintiff has had to borrow quite a bit of money

for defending himself.'

7 . Plaintiff has lost personal items, all inheritance, been a victim of grand

larceny . The acts of these defendants were more than grossly negligent or

malicious, the acts were vile and evils, with the intent of harm .

Facts

8. June 4, 2002 Ms . McDonald called EMS for assistance9, Ms . Caffrey was

lying on the floor, claimed to have fallen . Complaint page 12 ¶ 37 .

9 . EMS arrived, Carlock and Beamon and "Hughett", three persons dressed as

and representing paramedics . Stegeman, legal representative of Caffrey, and

neighbor Al Thompson, replaced McDonald at the home . Complaint pg 12 138.

10 . Caffrey was examined, Plaintiff was told that nothing was wrong with her .

Plaintiff requested Caffrey be taken downstairs, the safest place for Caffrey was

downstairs where her wheelchair was . Oarlock called Stone Mountain Officer

calumnv : n . the intentional and generally vicious false accusation of a

crime or other offense designed to damage one's reputation .

g www.lawdictionary.com: moral. turpitude:: n. gross violati on of standards

of moral conduct, vileness . An act involving moral turpitude is cons idered
intentionally evil, making the act a crime. The existence of moral turp itude can
bring a more severe criminal charge or penalty for a criminal defendant .

9 Caffrey suffered from extreme osteoporosis and was taking blood-thinners

due to suspected stroke .

Porter instead. Complaint page 12 ¶ 3 9

9. According to reports, at this point, Oarlock called Officer Porter in, claiming

that Plaintiff was preventing examination of Caffrey, complaint page 13, ¶ 40 .

11 . Neither Porter's Family Violence Report 10 nor his "Original Report" have

listed the time the 911 call came in, time of "dispatch, time for "arrival at the

scene", which all hinders in trying to defend oneself in a Court of law, see

complaint's "Exhibit 9".

12 . Ms . Caffrey suffering "Symbolic Disorder", mid to mild cognitive, senility,

dementia was incompetent ." i See complaint Exhibit 4, Exhibit 32 page 1 T 2 a & b .

13 . Caffrey obviously could not understand what she was being told or what was

happening when she was coerced by defendant "Hughett" and removed from her

to http:l/www.georgiadefenders .com/assault .kidnapping .htm: family

home, at that point Caffrey was kidnapped or illegally abducted .'2 Oddly when

EMS arrived at hospital, there were only two paramedics Oarlock and Beamon .

Obviously "Hughett's" part was as Fire Dept personnel, with no reason to be at

Caffrey's home, she committed an act beyond her authority, then falsified reports .

Falsified 13 EMS and Police Reports;

12 abduction : n. the criminal taking away of a person by persuasion

(convincing someone she is better off leaving with the persuader), by fraud, or by
open force or violence .

" Bouvier's Dictiona Falsehood : "A willful act or declaration contrary

to truth . It is committed either by the willful act of the party, or by dissimulation,
or by words."
"Falsehood by word is committed when a witness swears to what he knows not to
be true . Falsehood is usually attendant on crime . Roscoe, Cr . Ev. 362 .".
"It is a general rule, that if a witness testifies falsely as to any one material fact, the
whole of his testimony must be rejected but still the jury may consider whether the
wrong statement be of such character, as to entitle the witness to be believed in
other respects . 5 Shep l. R. 267 . See Lie."
"2. B the Act of Congress of April 30 1790, s. 15, 1 Story's L. U. S . 86, it is
enacted, that if any person shall feloniously steal, take away, alter, falsify, or
otherwise avoid, any record, writ, process, or other proceedings in any of the courts
of the United States, by means whereof any judgment shall be reversed, made void,

(d) Both EMS report and Officer Porter's reports would have you believe

that immediately after EMS arrived they met Ms . Caf&ey, immediately had to call

in Officer Porter to have Plaintiff removed so that they could examine Caffrey .

(e) According to the time logged in EMS report, ¶ (a) above, they sat

around for 18 minutes with Caffrey lying of the floor and did nothing while

Plaintiff ranted and raved. That is why there are no dispatch, arrival, departure

*Reali :There was no evidence of confinement. Not only was there a

phone, but also a "Companion" Response Service staffed by Medical personnel,

sitting on a table in plain view, upgraded to Level 2: "Companion So cial

the device was working and active, indicated by the red light which was on . See

witness . 2) If Ms . Caffrey was a victim of anything it would have been of having

fallen ; 3) complainant was Oarlock according to the "reports" if there was a victim

of Family Violence it would have been the complainant . 4) Ms . Caffrey's DOB :

11/22/1911, she advised the wrong birth date . 5) IF Officer Porter had in fact

13
 Case 1:06-cv-02954-WSD Document 40-1 Filed 02/28/2007 Page 14 of 22

investigated : a) Ms . Caffrey was not "being confined", Ms . Caffrey lived "alone"

b) there were no barriers and she was not locked in, so how was Caffrey confined

and by whom? No supporting evidence to date . c) "Phone" was on kitchen wall,

phone # : 770-469-4840" d) Companions response system was on a table, the light

was on showing it was "active", plugged in and in working condition .

e) "FVR" : Primary Aggressor : left blank; "OR" : Porter : "Mr. Oarlock

stated . . . Mr. Stegeman was being very verbal and would not let them conduct their

examination of Ms . Caffrey"

* Reality: Witness and Ms . Caf&ey both testified at Guardianship hearing

under Oath stated that Plaintiff never even spoke to Caffrey .

The facts are clear . Falsified EMS and Police Reports were intended for use

and have been used for the purpose of Civil and Constitutional Rights violations of

the Plaintiff. Those who have sworn an Oath to protect, abide by the laws and

Constitutions of the United States and The State of Georgia have a total disregard

for the law and have. no fear of charges for their illegal acts .

Plaintiff recently discovered that "Hughett" was at the incident as a Fire

Dept personnel to declare Caffrey's house unsafe, the reason DEKaIb Safety went

directly to the gas stove when they arrived on the scene . Plaintiff until recently

thought that what was meant by "life at risk under nephew's care", was that he was

14
R , Case 1:06-cv-02954-WSD Document 40-1 Filed 02/28/2007 Page 15 of 22

physically or mentally abusing her, the claim made by Ms . Turner. In fact,

"Hughett" was claiming that Plaintiff would cause his aunt's death from the house

being unsafe itself. "Hughett" is Fire Dept personnel as such could not claim

"abuse", she was claiming neglect or that the house was unsafe and thereby

Plaintiff was going to cause the deathh of his aunt .

Plaintiff has given evidence of falsified documents, allegations that he

planned to kill his aunt, discrimination, lack of concern for the Rights of the

disabled and elderly, violations of Oaths, Rules, Procedures; the policymaker's,

and the defendant's malfeasance, misfeasance and nonfeasance partnered with

extrinsic fraud involved in the violations of the Civil and Constitutional Rights of a

disabled man and caused the death of an elderly incompetent iady .2r

Governor Perdue a final policymaker22, set the policy when her responded to

Plaintiff's pleas for help concerning Stone Mountain Park . It is a "do nothing"

policy . Someone files a complaint asking for help stating they are disabled have

21 Because of Caffrey's diminishing mental capacities, it was easy for these

predators to illegally take her from her home .

22 U.S. Laws, Codes, Statutes: Article V . Executive Branch II:

§ Duties
and Power of the Governor : Paragraph I . Executive Powers: The chief executive
powers shall be vested in the Governor . The other executive officers shall have
such powers as may be prescribed by this Constitution and by law . Paragraph II.
Law Enforcement. : The Governor shall take care that the laws are faithfully
executed and shall be the conservator of the peace throughout the state.

15
i ;r a Case 1:06-cv-02954-WSD Document 40-1 Filed 02/28/2007 Page 16 of 22

no money, needs help . Governor Perdue's policy is to tell the complainant

"There's nothing I can do", knowing that a disabled person who has no money can

be ignored with no fear of consequences as final policymaker .

In turn the Sergeant at Stone Mountain City PD also a final policymaker,

knowing that the State's final policymaker has set the policy of ignoring violations

against the disabled, socially and economically disadvantaged Citizens of Georgia,

signs off on a clearly falsified document knowing there will be no consequences to

the action .

The allegations along with the "master plan" of these defendants came close

to having Plaintiff arrested for attempted murder . Had he not borrowed a great

deal of money to fight, he may have gone to prison .

All the while the Plaintiff contacted and complained to everyone and

anyone, the persons who are obligated by federal and state statute and by Oath of

their' Office failed to prevent the illegal wrongs .

11. Ante-Litem Notice No t Applicable

As pointed out to "State" defendants : PLAINTIFF'S OBJECTION AND

BRIEF TO DEFENDANT'S PRE-ANSWER MOTION TO DI SMISS page 15 :

(2) Failure To Send Ante Li tem Notice is not applicable in this Civil Action.

16
Z . Case 1:06-cv-02954-WSD Document 40-1 Filed 02/28/2007 Page 17 of 22

shows that State law sovereign immunity and state law limitations on damages "do

not protect local governments from liability under § 1983" and State laws requiring

pre-suit notification prior to initiating an action against the state or it's subdivisions

similarly do not apply .

Plaintiff contacted everyone necessary, some more than once, insisted that

his Civil and Constitutional Rights were being violated, the answer to him was the

same: "I cannot help you", "it's not my job" .

The fact is plainly seen, the Plaintiff either himself or Ms. McDonald, filed

complaints with every possible person, agency, Administration, enforcement

division within the State of Georgia . When all was said and done, the final

policymakers had set the policy : If a person, belonging to a protected class of

persons, has no money, ignore him and he will go away . Policy was set by the

Governor Sonny Perdue, now it is a "custom, policy or rule" .

Furthermore, even untrained Police Officers, Sergeants and EMS personnel

would know the proper authorities to contact for elder abuse or elder neglect ; they

would know that only law enforcement investigators investigate criminal acts and

that DFACS case workers do not have law enforcement personnel that can conduct

criminal investigations .

Facts clearly show that both the disabled Plaintiff and his elderly disabled

17
4 :X r k
Case 1:06-cv-02954-WSD Document 40-1 Filed 02/28/2007 Page 18 of 22

aunt had their Civil and Constitutional Rights violated and they were both victims

of crimes. Ms . Caffrey was abducted and died23 during the commission of Civil

Rights violations by the defendants abusing their positions "under color of law" .

Further, Stone Mountain Police Officer Porter has no immunity from the

damages he caused when violating Plaintiffs Civil and Constitutional Rights,

shown in Owen v . City f Independence, MO 455 U.S . 621 1980 and Monnel v.

III. The Rooker-Feldman Is Inapplicable

"It has long been the law that a plaintiff in federal court can seek to set aside

23 htt :l/diction .law.coml: kidnapping: n. the taking of a person against

his/her will from one place to another under circumstances in which the person so
taken does not have freedom of movement, will, or decision through violence,
force, threat or intimidation . . . .
Abduction : n. the criminal taking away of a person by persuasion, by fraud, or by
open force or violence
Murder: n . the killing of a human being by a sane person, with intent, malice
aforethought and with no legal excuse or authority. In those clear circumstances,
this is first degree murder . By statute, many states consider a killing in which there
is torture, movement of the person before the killing (kidnapping) or it was as an
incident to another crime, to be first degree murder, with or without premeditation
and with malice presumed . Second degree murder is such a killing without
premeditation . Malice in second de ee murder may be implied from a death due
to the reckless lack of concern for the life of others

a state court judgment obtained through extrinsic fraud . in Barrow v. Hunton, 99

U.S . (9 Otto) 80 ( 1878 the Supreme Court distinguished between errors of the

state court, which could not be reviewed in federal court, and fraud on the state

court, which could be the basis for an independent suit in circuit court . (The federal

circuit was a trial court at that time .}"

Plaintiff has claimed that the acts of defendants were in fact "fraud upon the

court" which led to the decisions of the court, not errors and the acts were acts of

extrinsic fraud.

CONSLUSION

Plaintiff's case has presented as a prima facie : (pry-mah fay-shah) adj . Latin

for "at first look," or "on its face, " referring to a lawsuit or crim inal prosecution in

which the evidence before trial is sufficient to prove the case unless there is

substantial contradictory evidence presented at trial . A prima facie case presented

to a Grand Jury by the prosecution will result in an indictment .

The defendants have not addressed the documents or claims in the

complaint . Plaintiff in this Civil action would have much preferred legal counsel

to represent him in this matter, his choice was not to be a Pro Se litigant .

Plaintiff diligently tries to follow and abide by all The Federal Rules of Civil

Procedure as well as the Local Rules and the Instructions from the Court . Lacking

the knowledge and experience of an attorney, Plaintiff assures this honorable

Court. If in fact there are grounds for Dismissal on any or all of the claims,

Plaintiff further respectfully MOVES this Honorable Court to allow the Complaint

to be Amended to satisfy the Counts and Claims . Plaintiff believes that there are

things that need to be changed within the complaint and will be filing for Leave to

Amend, but has yet to do so.

As Plaintiff has shown, he did everything Humanly possible to take care of

this matter without filing suit . Plaintiff filed complaint after complaint to deaf

ears, even to the point of having to beg for help .

Based on the foregoing, Plaintiff, respectfully MOVES this Honorable Court

to Deny Dismissal of this Civil Action .

Respectfully Submitted this 27 " day of February, 2007 .
