5/26/00

Lincoln - Gaylon "Whitey" Harrell of rural Latham was acquitted by a 12 person jury of the 4 count criminal felony charges of willful failure to file an Illinois State Income Tax form. The actual trial began on Wednesday May 24th in the Logan County Circuit Court room, presided over by Senior Judge David "Slick" Coogan ("Slick is how the judge identifies himself) and closed on Friday after four hours of deliberation when the jury returned with four consecutive "not guilty" verdicts.

"We were in a heated debate" reported one unnamed juror, "but when the court refused, after our specific written request, to furnish us copies of the actual statutes, (that imposed the obligation on the defendant,) it didn't take long for all of us to see that something was wrong with the State's case.

"That was not all the court refused to let the jury see," added Jerry Barringer, Harrell's attorney. "The court, at the request of the Illinois State's attorney, denied the jury access to evidence that already had been introduced and accepted." "Astoundingly, even the Bill of Indictment was denied to the jury." chimed in Barringer's legal assistant Lindsey Springer, "Also denied were jury instructions sanctioned by the Supreme Court and even a VCR recorder to play the video tape that Whitey had made of his meeting with the CID agent."

"I've seen a lot of tyranny in the courts, but never anything so blatant as what I saw here over the last two days," added Bob Minark, an Indiana friend of Harrell's.

The 4 criminal felony charges had been brought against Harrell in 1997 and just came to trial this past week. Harrell had submitted numerous motions in a case that saw both assigned judges and assigned state's attorneys resign or recuse themselves. All Harrell's motions were denied.

The case started back in early 1997 when Harrell was approached by Illinois Dept. of Revenue Criminal Investigation Division (CID) agent Robert Craner, who asked him for an interview. The testimony was that Harrel refused until he had witnesses present and a video camera set up at the local library where he later video taped a 45 minute meeting with Craner. On the video, which was shown to the jury at the trial, Harrel specificlly pointed out that he could find no section of the Illinois statutes that obligated him to file an Illinois income tax return. He presented Craner with numerous documents which he identified as outlines of statutes and regulations and "administrative code" which he said he searched to no avail in finding any obligation that would apply to him. Craner accepted the documents. The tape showed that Craner promised Harrell at least five different times, to produce the statutes that made Harrell liable and get answers to Harrell's questions.

The testimony later showed that Craner didn't do that and instead went back to the Grand Jury to testify that Harrell was a resident of Logan County who failed to file Illinois state income tax forms. Unbeknownst to Harrel, at the time of the interview, Craner was also acting as a Grand Jury investigator. "He never told me," said Harrell, "He never read me a Miranda warning. He just promised to get me the information, but instead went back to the Grand Jury to get an Indictment." Grand Jury Transcripts show that Craner testified that Harrel, at the library meeting, had nothing to offer in his defense of why he didn't file a tax return, but the video tape brought Craner's credibility into serious question.

Harrell testified in his own defense and verified his many efforts to obtain the law that made him liable for the income tax or how his activity was privledged. The prosecution brought out on cross examination that Harrell had filed many law suits in the past and that those suits were dismissed in both the state and federal courts. In an attempt to prove knowledge, the state also elicited that Harrell had previously filed tax returns previouslly. Harrell's Attorney Barringer likened that to believing in Santa Claus when you were a child and then gaining knowledge of the fact that Santa Claus is a fantasy as you got older and wiser. Barringer's questioning of Agent Craner as to his belief in Santa Claus brought an objection from the State's attorney which was sustained by the judge without any recognition of humor. Harrel, 62, had worked for the United States Post Office as a rural mail carrier and also received a pension from Caterpiller from where he retired in 1990.

Asked if his case will set a preccedent, Harrel said, "Legally, No, but I certainly hope it sets the precedent that more people question the loss of their rights and property whenever government claims its the law. I feel sure this jury will be thinking twice."

Interestingly, even after the specifc request of the jury, neither the state or the court ever did produce any statute showing Harrel had any obligation. "We don't have anything to say at this time other than Mr. Harrell was very lucky and we will be watching his activities carefully," stated an assistant State's Attorney who asked not to be identified.

Harrel plans to keep up his efforts to expose, what he says, is the one of the largest frauds ever committed on the people of Illinois. "Al Capone couldn't hold a candle to these guys," Harrell commented when talking about the State's claim of a requirement for wage earners and independent contractors to file a state income tax form.

Harrell's bail bond has been released and the funds obtained from Harrell to gurantee the bond will be returned. No further court actions are pending against Harrell at this time, but Harrell anticipates further actions by himself against both the state Department of Revenue and the federal Internal Revenue Service.

May 28th 2000

Bob's comment's -- When Whitey called and told me that the court had denied his final motion to dismiss and that he was going to trial during the week of May 22 to 26, I knew I had to be there, if for no other reason than to offer morale support. Based upon my previous courtroom experiences, I thought I might even be able to add a few things from what we had learned.

The trip to Lincoln, Illinois was 200 miles and I had 1001 things to do, but this was Whitey calling. No excuses, no B.S., just put everything down and hump it on out to Logan Co. I arrived at the court house just before the government started it's case and just early enough to meet a smiling, but still ugly Whitey and determined government butt kicker John Blevins, who introcued me to the distinguished and youthful, but graying, Attorney Jerry Barringer and the articulate para-legal Lindsey Springer. Things improve later when I got a hug form the very patient and gracious, Lois Harrell, Whitey's wife of 40 years.

Other than being amongst friends, it was not a pleasant three days in the courtroom. I had seen biased and arrogant judges before, but never one this biased and arrrogant (Slick would wait till the jury arrived and then make his entrance requiring the jury to stand for him.) I had seen stupid criminal investigative agents, but never one this stupid (he knew he had been taped and still lied to the grand jury.) I had seen cocky little prosecuters, but none like "mosey tong" (exact name unknown but it sounds like "mosey tong")

In fact, the atmosphere was so permeated with arrogance and bias and stupidy that it filtered out to the jurors who, though tentative at the beginning, woke up at the appropriate time.

Even though the attitude of the court played a major role in the outcome, it would never have happened had Whitey not established the factual evidentiary foundation to present to the jurors. Video taping the meeting with the CID agent Craner and elliciting Craner's statement to offer to help was brilliant, especially having that video tape after Craner testified that he didn't do anything to find answers for Whitey.

Another thing that was very important was that Whitey testified very well. He paused after each question and answered firmly without hesitation. Even on cross where the State's Attorney questioned him about the civil cases Whitey had previously lost, Whitey didn't flinch. In my opinion, Whitey could only have done as well as he did because of the contant hours of preparation and study prior to trial.

Whitey is no greenhorn. He's been involved in the movement fighting "no obligation" tax fraud for over 20 years. In fact, I consider Whitey the most dedicated patriot I have ever met. He both inspires and pushes me. Go on the offensive, he keeps saying. File that complaint. Take it to em. Become the plaintiff!!!! (If I've heard that once, I've heard that a hundred times.) Now, I know how right he was. It's far better being the plaintiff than the defendant.

Even though Whitey is a warrior, this case took a toll on Whitey and his family. Besides the financial burden (which in itself is astronomical) the stress on the family was intense (although Whitey did his best to mask it).

Whitey is not the type of guy who is going to quit. He is going to keep on fighting to his last breath.

We need to give him a morale boost and a financial lift. A resounding "Thank You" to Whitey is in order!!

The best way to do this is for each of us to reach into our pockets or wallets or purses and pull out a 10.00 $ federal reserve note bill and write on it "Thank you Warrior Whitey!! Keep on fighting the good fight!!"

Then stick that bill into an envelope and mail it to: "Warrior Whitey" Harrell, 283-2400th Ave., Latham, Illinois 62543.

Whitey can be reached by phone at 217-674-3586, by fax at 217-674-9086 and by e-mail at his son Rodney's e-mail address: HscooterD@aol.com

PROOF The Income Tax IS NOT LEGAL!!!

The Internal Revenue Service has lost a lawyer's challenge in front of a jury to prove a constitutional foundation for the nation's income tax, and the victorious attorney now is setting his sights higher.

"I think now people are beginning to realize that this has got to be the largest fraud, backed up by intimidation and extortion and by the sheer force of taking peoples property and hard-earned money without any lawful authorization whatsoever," lawyer Tom Cryer told WND just days after a jury in Louisiana acquitted him of two criminal tax counts.

And before you consign him to the legions of "tin foil hat brigades" who argue against paying taxes, and then want payment to explain how to do that, he addresses the issue up front.

The Rest Here!

initiated a national campaign to educate officials of private companies that
under U.S. law, their workers are not subject to withholding, that the
companies are not legally "withholding agents" and that the individual
income tax is fraudulent in its origin and unlawful in its enforcement and
operation.
WTP’s letter was addressed to
the new IRS Commissioner, Mark W. Everson. A copy of the full packet of
information to be presented to each company during the campaign was enclosed
with the letter to Mr. Everson.

Copies of the letter, with the enclosure, were also sent to: President
George W. Bush; Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist; Speaker J. Dennis
Hastert; Attorney General John Ashcroft; Treasury Secretary John Snow; and
David Cay Johnston of the New York Times.
Enclosed with each letter was a copy of a blue folder labeled, "Legal
Termination of Tax Withholding For Companies, Workers and Independent
Contractors." In the folder were the following documents:

• Letter
  from Bob Schulz to Chief Executive Officers of American Companies,

In his letter, Schulz asks each of the government officials to inform WTP
if the withholding information is in any way faulty or misleading.
WTP encourages everyone to freely download the documents and distribute
copies to local businesses and all company officials that they may know or
have contact with in their area.
If anyone would like WTP to send them a printed copies of the March 15,
2003 letter to the IRS, together with its enclosure, the "Legal Termination
of Tax Withholding For Companies, Workers and Independent Contractors"
information package, they can order same from our website

We are also encouraging our state and county coordinators to begin
arranging and scheduling free 1/2 day seminars for company officials in
their area for the purpose of educating the officials about the program and
answering all questions. WTP will cover expenses and will either train the
local coordinator to conduct the seminar or will send someone to conduct the
seminar. Additional details will be forthcoming.
On March 16, from 1-4 PM, Schulz will conduct the first regional meeting to educate American
workers and companies about their right to legally terminate withholding
at the Nashua, New Hampshire Sheraton,
just off Exit 1 on US Route 3. On Monday evening March 17, Schulz will

IRS
& Department of Justice: Why Won’t You Answer Our Questions?





On
July 20, 2001, IRS Commissioner Charles Rossotti and U.S. Assistant
Attorney General Dan Bryant formally agreed to have IRS and DOJ
participate in a recorded, public hearing on Capital Hill to officially
answer questions under oath in response to a Petition For Redress Of
Grievances from the American People.
Our Citizen’s Petition directly challenges:

• 
  
  The jurisdiction and legal
  authority for the IRS
  
• 
  
  The unlawful enforcement of income
  tax laws against American citizens
  
• 
  
  The pervasive abuse of the
  People's constitutional rights in the daily operations of the IRS
  

After agreeing in writing to
publicly answer questions related to the unconstitutional origin of the
IRS, and the devastating harm caused by the income tax system to the
working men and women of our nation, The Department of Justice and IRS on
January 17, 2002, without explanation, canceled the hearing.







WE NOW
HAVE A CONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS





What must a free People do when
their government repeatedly refuses to honor its legal and moral
obligation to respond to a proper Petition for Redress of Grievance as
guaranteed by the 1^st Amendment to the United States
Constitution?



We ask the People:
Is Alan Dershowitz Correct?

·
We have NO unalienable rights?

·
The Constitution is merely a piece of paper?



·
Government should not be restrained because it
can do good things for people?
9/27/00 debate at Franklin & Marshall







Can We
The People simply accept that our Constitution has become a dead letter?



Must
we resort to the same desperate measures that our Founders did to defend
their unalienable rights to life, liberty and justice?



Do We
Have a Constitution or Not?





For decades, the government has steadfastly refused
to honor the petitions of a growing number of honorable, well-educated,
professional legal researchers whose work has raised significant and
legitimate questions about the Constitutional and statutory authority of
the income tax system. These
issues are of the utmost importance to the American People and to our
Republic.

Our respectful petitions to our servant government
have fallen on deaf ears, have been arbitrarily and unjustly thrown out of
the courts, and have been used as grounds for criminal prosecution, asset
seizure and other unlawful abuse by the IRS and DOJ.

Three years ago, We The People Foundation began a
series of formal, public initiatives to convince the U.S. government to
answer our questions regarding the jurisdiction and legal authority of the
IRS and the personal income tax system.
As the chronology of events outlined below demonstrates, we have
worked diligently to show the American People the truth about the
unconstitutional origin, abusive history and criminal conduct of the IRS,
and the un-American nature of the personal income tax system.
