The “Ham Samwich” award of the Century goes to the former Big Cheese from MINNESOTA. Lorie Skrivpin Gildea was a political hack job in progress as she was appointed to be a Minnesota Supreme Court member during the one and only criminal prosecution she had ever presided over. Farce! See Police Officer Stevey Wagner for Perjury info. Such vast experience obviously suited her for the big BIG job as chief justice. Oh Boy! Mrs. Gildea spent part of her career protecting the MK-ULTRA secrets at Minnesota’s Prize Institution – The Infamous UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA. See long history of dead bodies. See Dan Markingson case. See history of their Department of Psychiatry. No, Mrs. Gildea, time and your filthy bloody hands didn’t appease. We still remember. See cases involving murderer WESLEY FRANCIS GUBBIN for more bloody Gildea history. Thomas Malloy et al, are dead LORIE. Are you listening Officer (LIAR) Wagner. The Legal System’s catastrophes in Minnesota continue and really now – is anyone surprised?
One would think this kind of persecution would have only been something found in the history books from the 1960s. I would say such action is unbelievable here in the USA but after the injustice of those persucuted for Jan6, I have to believe differently.
The government owes this family an apology and reimbursement for all the legal fees, possibly another hundred million in damages.
Few would have been brave enough or financially capable to fight the way John Wilson did. Thank you sir!
