Los Angeles, CA A Joint Legislative Committee of California Senators and Assembly members held a hearing on December 8, 2009 at the Museum of Tolerance in West Los Angeles that was sparsely attended by the public. Without fanfare or any promotion to the public, the apparent purpose of the meeting was to videotape the Legislative leaders at this panel discussion to demonstrate they were attempting to resolve the State’s budget process that contributed to a dire fiscal disaster that now has California on the brink of insolvency. Other such hearings have been held across the state and the video of those discussions appear on the government website.
PUBLIC OUTRAGE AT THE COURTS & CORRUPTION
At the end of each of the two panel discussions, there was a public comment section where participants ignored the budget discussion but lambasted the officials for failing to address the issues corruption in the Courts
Full Disclosure Network® compiled an eight minute video revealing the essence of what happened and demonstrated the growing unrest among the citizens over Court Corruption in Los Angeles. Specifically, the citizens kept focusing on the controversial State Senate Bill SBX2 11 that was approved by the Legislature during the budget session that gave retroactive immunity from criminal and civil prosecution to Judges, Courts, and government officials who had accepted and or given illegal public funds from the County to the Judges.
Listed on the agenda as participants on the panels were the State Auditor, Controller, Inspector General, Treasurer’s Office and a few selected business representatives along with State Senators, who appeared shocked that the public was more concerned about government and court corruption than they were with the mundane discussion between the legislators and bureaucrats.
Featured in the video are:
- Mike Feuer, State Assembly Chair of the Joint Legislative Committee
- State Senators Dutton, Wyland, Saulnier and Pavley
- Gabriella Holt, President of Citizens for California Government Reform
- George Buzzetti, Community Activist
- Daniel Gottlieb, Emeritus Professor Purdue University Mathematics Dept.
- Rabbi Schifren, Candidate for State Senate
- Steve Bardo, Center for Judicial Excellence
- Jeanette Isaacs, Concerned Citizen and Victim of Court Corruption

the ownership, through bribes, of court justices is necessary for the gangsters to continue with their agenda of stripping the people of our rights, property, freedom, and powers that appointed them in the first place. Tear it all down!

The problem is a combination of all three(3) items: corruption of elected officials, bureaucracy, and judges.

WHEN IN DOUBT, VOTE THEM OUT !!!
Vote out EVERY INCUMBENT until you find one who’s ONLY CONCERN is cleaning up judicial corruption. NO OTHER ISSUE MATTERS because the courts are the ones who enforce all other anti-corruption efforts and obviously these will fail if they are “enforced” by corrupt cronies. So long as government is corrupt, everything will keep getting worse for everyone else (except the special interests).
This is the ONLY WAY to nullify the power of special interests.
Even if the replacements are corrupt and incompetent, HOW MUCH MORE HARM CAN THEY DO IN ONE TERM? If they ALL then get voted out, ALL politicians who want to get re-elected will positively realize that the only way to keep their cushy job is to absolutely CONVINCE their constituents that their ONLY CONCERN is cleaning up judicial corruption. Otherwise, constituents with the slightest DOUBT will VOTE THEM OUT.
Once the panicked politicians get enough crooked judges replaced by HONEST judges, citizens can then accelerate the cleanup process by using the courts to enforce laws against governmental wrongdoing.
Thereafter, hopefully, office seekers will realize that voters’ hotbutton issue is eliminating and PREVENTING corruption and will compete with incumbents in finding ways to accomplish this. If this happens, checks and balances will reasonably quickly be implemented thereby making future corruption much harder and less likely.
The state can then get on with actually improving the quality of life for its citizens instead of enslaving them for the benefit of a few.

What you have is a modern day crime syndicate in a star chamber enviroment of corruption. I applaud your efforts and pray for the efforts of ordinary citizens and whistle blowers to remedy the situation.

I am disgusted and have absolutely no faith in Americas legal system. I have never in my life hated anyone until I have dealt with lawyers and judges. They are no held accountable to anyone and will steal everything you own when they have the opportunity. I have been involved in a civil lawsuit. Lawyers ruin everything they touch and this is why america is having alot of the problems we have today. Most people with significant amounts of wealth do not even keep in in America anymore. There will always be someone and some unethical lawyers who will always try to take some of what you have.

Not only is there corruptions in the city, county, state & federal court system, there is corruption committed by every board of directors/supervisors for each municipality and/or government agency. Why? because the government agencies whether it be a school entity, a court, city council (etc), state prison, county sheriff's office,- each is a corporation, and each has it's own CAFR fund, used to siphon taxpayer moneys, reinvest on the markets, and then hold/payout to themselves, leaving the taxpayer pennyless.
Why so corrupt? california

The entire California Judiciary budget is a waste that should be easily cut off. Our corrupt court system should be replaced by a private mediation system that costs nothing to the taxpayers.

Go figure, the FAT CAT CORRUPT JUDGES keep getting fatter while starving poor kittens who do the work.
People are getting angrier and angrief at what their government and select high level bureaucrats are doing to the public.
