Attorney General Jerry Brown, Alameda County District Attorney Tom Orloff and Oakland City Attorney John Russo’s Failed Campaign Promises; Brokers For White Collar Crime; Advocates of Racism, Bigotry, Selective Prosecution and White Class Priviledge!
Attorney General Jerry Brown, Alameda County District Attorney Tom Orloff and  Oakland City Attorney John Russo all claim to be proponents of Government Transparency, Accountability and Civic Reform and tout their campaign promises and accomplishments on TV and radio shows, in videos, on their websites, in numerous press releases and in the resultant news articles. To affect these lofty campaign promises, they all have paraded Civic Reform in cleaning up Government and Law Enforcement aimed at restoring public confidence in government, maintaining the Highest Ethical Standards, “Whistleblower’s” Program, Legal Services aimed at improving conditions for the poor, initiated law suits against individuals and corporations allegedly causing harm to the public and environment, elder abuse, homeowner and tenant rights, the foreclosure and banking crisis, and violent crime.
They fashion themselves as independent watchdogs and gatekeepers for the people, fighting governmental and police misconduct and corruption, crime, nepotism, unfair employment practices, violent gangs, consumer fraud, unfair business practices, California’s dysfunctional Health Care System, campaign disclosure and lobbyist activities.
According to Russo’s Web site, Real Oakland Administrative Reform (ROAR) is designed to “make city government more accountable, more transparent and more effective.”
However, a closer inspection reveals that these are no more than hollow words to veil their Failed Campaign Promises; Brokers For White Collar Crime; Advocates of Racism, Bigotry, Selective Prosecution and White Class Priviledge!

Brown Can’t Exonerate, Defend, Investigate, or Prosecute Orloff and Russo- But Also Can’t Afford NOT TO!!!
In this expose you will witness how and why Brown, Orloff and Russo’s corporate lawsuits themselves amounts to little more than the same “shakedown” they oppose when they are sued. While they settle these pretentious suits they let the corporate offender off the hook for truly untold millions of dollars in fees, fines, penalties, restitution, sanctions, costs, actual and punitive damages and the proceeds NEVER go to the victim of these corporate crooks, usually the public! Further, these corporate crooks are NEVER sent to jail for their White Collar crimes, yet most minority, immigrant, or religious minority violators are sent to prison with maximum sentences for alleged minor violations. Where is the equal enforcement, justice and even handed prosecution of alleged crimes? Why do Brown, OrloffOrloff @ PressConf and Russo foster the apparent selective prosecution and litigation divide by race, money, class, sex, country of origin, religion? The public is being raped by these sleight-of-hand criminal litigation tactics of the corporate crooks, Brown, Orloff and Russo while being mislead into believing that they are the “Protectors of The Public Trust!” as Russo states “that it is the government’s job to conduct the peoples business on behalf of the people, accountable to the people, and in full view of the people.” I MUST STOP LAUGHING!!!
Just as with one of his co-defendants John Russo, Jerry Brown on his election website, JerryBrown.org, depicts himself as the states top cop “Fighting For You!”, yet al-Hakim has provided evidence he has defended, concealed and thereby further complicitly committed the admitted, willful, and intentional extrinsic fraud upon the State, al-Hakim and his family, and the court; prosecutorial misconduct; willful and malicious prosecution; misconduct; conflict of interest; obstruction of justice; denial of due process under the law; willful and intentional fabrication and authoring false evidence; misstating and mischaracterizing evidence; misrepresentation and concealment of material facts with knowledge of the truth with the intent to induce the court’s act or reliance; harassment; and intimidation committed by District Attorney Tom Orloff, Maureen Lenahan, Valgeria Harvey, counselors L. Lavagetto, Ms. K. Pendergrass, Ms. Adler, Kris Ferre, and accountant Mr. Lovelady and others unnamed in the DA’s office; as well as Commissioner Oleon’s abuse of discretion, willful misconduct, conduct prejudicial, illegal ex-parte communications and bias that resulted in error.
al-Hakim has also recently produced clear, irrefutable, established “smoking gun” evidence of the continued blatant illegal activities of Oakland City Attorney John Russo, defense counsel Stephan Barber and defendant Ron Cook in the CSAA and the underlying Rescue Rooter case that all their key evidence and testimony was clearly contrived and constructed in fraud and deceit and planted in the City of Oakland case file in August 1999 and the product of extrinsic fraud, planting fraudulent evidence, spoliation of evidence, and suborned perjurious testimony in support of their defense litigation strategy. It is further proof that the entire City of Oakland case file was purged and reconstructed to accommodate the defendants litigation strategy in both this and the underlying Rescue Rooter case.

Russo Entrapped In Extrinsic Fraud, Planted Evidence!!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JblUjRPY52o&hl

The fraudulently fabricated and planted evidence and the witness testimony based on this planted evidence in the al-Hakim v CSAA and the underlying Rescue Rooter case was created thru EXTRINSIC FRAUD, with accompanying testimony procured thru admitted suborned and solicited perjurious acts by John Russo and others, they engaged in actions to destroy the litigation of al-Hakim’s legal case; they engaged in actions to coverup their unlawful acts; they committed, aided and abetted this criminal activity with the City Attorney giving the case files to defendant Stephan Barber and Ron Cook whom allegedly had absconded with the files for nearly a year was an unpardonable breach in the chain of custody of the court files, then clearly constructed fraudulent fabricated evidence in 1999 and planted that evidence favorable to the defendants in the files SIX years AFTER the case was closed, engaged in spoliation of remaining evidence in the court files from 1991. During the trial, testimony revealed that there were numerous documents and photos of a very damning nature to the defense and CSAA that were missing, altered, or incomplete.
John Russo has always maintained in his own written documents to al-Hakim that the case files were requested for review in late 1999 and placed at the City Attorney’s front desk although no one came to review them, these court records somehow disappeared for nearly a year without the City Attorney’s investigating who, when, how, why?
al-Hakim contacted John Russo, the City Attorney of the City of Oakland several times by registered mail, phone and fax, regarding their independent knowledge of the defendants absconding with the files from the City’s possession, and if such action was with the permission of the City Attorney. Russo has failed and refused to effectively respond and has always denied knowing who made the request to review the files or what happened to them, while al-Hakim and his attorneys Michael Michel and Jeff Fackler, had attempted several times to obtain copies of the City litigation file from October 1999 to June of 2000 and was told by the City Attorney’s Office that the file was “missing” and was last requested by defendant Ron Cook. Finally, after six months, in June 2000, Anita Hong called to notify Mr. Michel that the file had been returned and was available for viewing. At that time Mr. Fackler and Michel was told that the file had been returned by CSAA’s attorney. al-Hakim called Ms. Hong and was told the file was back and available for viewing, and when asked who returned the file, she responded “it was returned by Steve Barber of Ropers Majeski”.
You now have John Russo and the municipality of the City of Oakland with the City Attorney’s Office being guilty of unclean hands without notifying the court of these specious, treacherous acts and al-Hakim’s complaints address the concern that a John Russos’ criminal violations of the Civil Code, Business and Professions Code, the Rules of Professional Conduct; and Cal.Cannons and strikes at the heart of al-Hakim’s fundamental civil human and rights and due process under the law guaranteed by the United States Constitution Amendments and the California Constitution and qualify as a Hate Crime under the Unruh and Ralph Civil Rights and the Bane Acts, while they are clear acts of religious bigotry and intolerance that such conduct rose to the level of consideration for a Federal Crime and a Civil Rights violation because the City Attorney’s Office operates “under the color of law” and certainly the violation of anyone’s civil rights is a federal crime. This deprivation of al-Hakim’s civil, human and due process rights by the law enforcement body of the City Attorneys’ office of Oakland rise to the level of criminal activity and “misconduct by local and federal law enforcement officials. These criminal actions by Russo and his staff demand they be issued court ordered subpoenaed to testify.
John Russo and the City Attorney’s Office has engaged in acts to coverup these criminal litigation tactics, failed and refused to disclose to the court, nor inform the Judge of their improper and illegal transgressions regarding the fact the defendants alleged absconding with and taking custody of the City of Oakland files for nearly a year and allowed the trial to proceed knowing their liability and the legal impact of their fraudulent fabricated evidence in 1999 and planted that evidence favorable to the defendants in the files SIX years AFTER the case was closed, engaged in spoliation of remaining evidence in the court files from 1991 where during the trial, testimony revealed that there were numerous documents and photos of a very damning nature to the defense that were missing, altered, or incomplete, and their unpardonable breach in the chain of custody of the City files.
These activities were done in concert with Oakland City Attorneys John Russo, Randy Hall, Elizabeth Allen, Eliada Perez, Janie Wong and former City Attorney Jane Williams and former employee Pat Smith; Stephan Barber and others of the law firm Ropers, Majeski; Ronald J. Cook, Randy Willoughby, Alex Stuart, Bradley Bening and others of the law firm Willoughby, Stuart & Bening; William Jemmott now of the law firm Wilson Elser; Todd Jones and the law firm Archer Norris; Daniel Crowley of the law firm Daniel Crowley & Assoc.; Fletcher Alford, Joel K. Liberson and the law firm Gordon & Rees; Sean Robert O’Halloran now of the law firm Crone Rozynko; Anne Brooks Harrigan now of the law firm Grancell, Lebovitz, Stander, Barnes & Reubens; Yolanda Marnell Jackson now of the law firm Jackson Alternative Dispute Resolution; the law firm of Caven, Cleaveland, Murray; the former law firm of Jackson Harrigan; John Ratto and Dean K. Beyer, of ASU Group (formerly D. L. Glaze); defendants Rescue Rooter and Bay Area Carpet Cleaning; and retired Judges David Lee, Michael Ballachey, and Richard Hodge. Retired judges Lee, Ballachey, and Hodge, though they live in three different counties, all coincidentally hired the same Oakland defense firm. There has been judiciary litigation support given by now Appellate Judges Barbara Jones, James Richman, and Henry Needham and Superior Court Judge Frank Roesch whom had disqualifications or complaints filed against them with cover and sanctuary provide by Ronald M. George of The California Supreme Court, Victoria Henley of The California Judicial Council, Ronald G. Overholt of The California Judges Association, The Alameda County Presiding Court Judge Yolanda Northridge and former Alameda County Presiding Court Judge George Hernandez that portrays corruption.

Presiding Court Judge Yolanda Northridge Conceals Corruption

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5cRz-DFiwk&hl

ALL OF THESE PARTIES ABOVE were aware of or should have been aware of the blatant illegal activities of defense counsels Stephan Barber and Shawn O’Halloran in this and the underlying case and that all their key evidence and testimony was the product of extrinsic fraud, planting fraudulent evidence, spoliation of evidence, and suborned perjurious testimony in support of their defense litigation strategy. al-Hakim has previously served multiple deposition and trial subpoenas on ALL the parties named above and they have ALL failed to appear every time.
The many new claims including corruption, conspiracy, abuse of discretion, gross misconduct, conduct prejudicial, gross negligence, bias, the subornation and solicitation of perjurious testimony charges are inextricably intertwined with the truthful testimony and conduct of the Judges; Defendant’s and their attorneys, agents, contractors, employees, witnesses and experts; as well as other attorneys, agents, witnesses and experts that have been involved in these two cases over the current 12 year period.
This onerous, odious taint and obvious complicity in quilt of these crimes makes it legally impossible for Brown to unbiasedly and practically investigate and prosecute the wrong doing of ALL the parties known to have committed these heinous, over 12 years of crimes against al-Hakim, his family, business, clients, community, and humanity as he himself defended the criminals and covered up the very same corruption he is supposed to be investigating and prosecuting!
This is one of the myriad of reasons this matter will be referred back to Congressman John Conyers and the Judiciary Committee and United States Attorney General Eric Holder and the Department of Justice for complete investigation and prosecution of the crimes against al-Hakim.
Attorney General Jerry Brown and Oakland City Attorney John Russo’s “Whistleblower’s ” Programs
In a March 20, 2009 News Release from the Office of the Attorney General entitled “Brown Sues to Recover Hundreds of Millions of Dollars Illegally Diverted from Medi-Cal”, Brown responded to a whistleblower’s allegation of “massive Medi-Cal fraud and kickbacks” and joined legal action against seven private laboratories to recover hundreds of millions of dollars in illegal overcharges to the state’s medical program for the poor. “In the face of declining state revenues, these medical laboratories have siphoned off hundreds of millions of dollars from programs intended for the most vulnerable California families.” Attorney General Brown said. “Such a pattern of massive Medi-Cal fraud and kickbacks cannot be tolerated, and I will take every action the law allows to recover what is owed,” Brown added.  As with his co-defendant, former co-worker in Oakland City government, colleague of his wife Anne Gust, partner and friend John Russo, Brown advocates a sound whistleblower program, defending the poor, and prosecuting white-collar crime, yet he is mute and motionless when time to litigate against his own transgressions and those of his political allies he is loyal to as opposed to the public that he is responsible to.
Attorney General Jerry Brown and his http://www.JerryBrown.org
On his website, JerryBrown.org, Brown touts his record and campaign promises of:
Fighting for You
1. Fighting Mortgage Fraud and Real Estate Scams
Brown has pursued companies and individuals who perpetrated massive mortgage fraud, including an $8.6 Billion settlement with Countrywide. Now he is going after those, largely minorities, who would further exploit the mortgage crisis by offering fraudulent “rescue” services.
2. Fighting for Workers
Brown has sued unscrupulous employers for denying workers rights required by state law, shut down companies and prosecuted businesses that have bilked California’s workers’ or otherwise circumvented state laws
3. Fighting Crime
Brown has cracked down on violent gangs, and worked closely with local police and sheriffs to apprehend dangerous criminals, con artists and major perpetrators of fraud and financial crimes.
As California’s Chief Law Enforcement Officer, Brown leads a team of special agents and dedicated staff who conduct criminal investigations, enforce firearms laws and regulations, and manage the state’s crime labs, including the third largest DNA database in the world.
4. Protecting the Environment
5. Protecting Consumers
Brown has a lifelong record of protecting consumers against unfair business practices. As Governor, Brown passed landmark legislation to force full disclosure by companies, and has made consumer fraud prevention a top priority. In addition to vigorous pursuit of the mortgage scam artists, he has gone after price gouging, false advertising, and contaminated and unsafe products.
6. Fighting Fraud and Abuse in California’s Health Care System
Brown has sued medical laboratories for massive overcharges, stopped rip-offs in the Medi-Cal Program, cracked down on unlawful abuse of prescription drugs, fought misleading ad campaigns by major drug companies and arrested nursing home operators for forcibly drugging elderly patients.
7. Fighting Political Corruption
Brown wrote and passed the landmark California Political Reform Act which introduced the nation’s toughest disclosure and campaign finance laws. The unprecedented legislation also established strict new ethical guidelines for conflict of interest law and required more lobbyist reporting.
Brown sued against big corporations for failing to disclose campaign donations and personally argued before the California Supreme Court, the case of Brown v. Superior Court, 5 C.3rd 509 (Aug. 19, 1971). The case involved Proposition 18 on the 1970 ballot and the failure of three major oil companies to report $85,000 in campaign donations.
Brown has championed reforms since he forced legislators to comply with campaign disclosure laws and exposed President Nixon’s use of falsely notarized documents to improperly earn a large tax deduction. Brown personally argued before the state Supreme Court and won against Gulf, Mobile and Standard Oil for election law violations (Brown vs. Superior Court). Before Watergate, Brown authored the Political Reform Act of 1974, which was overwhelmingly adopted by the voters of California. This law established some of the nation’s toughest regulations governing campaign disclosure and lobbyist activities.
John Russo and his http://www.johnrusso.com
On his website http://www.johnrusso.com/, in his brassy, self-touting manner refers to himself as “The Leader for government transparency and civic reform!” – Pragmatic Progressive Leadership!, Oakland City Attorney John Russo describes himself as “passionate that all Oakland citizens have a right to a safe community, good job opportunities, a thriving economy, and a responsible and transparent government.”
Real Oakland Administrative Reform (ROAR)
In a press conference video announcing ROAR and in an article printed in the Oakland Tribune July 12, 2008 by columnist Byron Williams entitled “Stepping in to fill Oakland’s Power Vacuum” he discusses Oakland City Attorney John Russo and City Auditor Courtney Ruby’s press conference unveiling their five-point reform package aimed at restoring public confidence in local government.
According to the video and Russo’s Web site, Russo and Ruby state Real Oakland Administrative Reform (ROAR) is designed to “make city government more accountable, more transparent and more effective for the taxpayers of Oakland.”
ROAR includes:
1. A whistleblower protection ordinance.
2. A strong anti-nepotism ordinance.
3. Reform of flawed personnel department procedures to reduce taxpayer liability.
4. Reform of the city’s inadequate records management practices.
5. A new employee ethics program that includes mandatory ethics training for all supervisors.
In the ROAR press conference video Oakland City Attorney John Russo and City Auditor Cortney Ruby state they truly want “to enact, and enforce their own Whistleblower program” they are truly “for honest, transparent government” they want the public to truly believe that “Government is operating on the level” and truly opposed to in Russo’s words “more politicians simply keeping the game going as long as they can”; then Attorney General Jerry Brown and Alameda County District Attorney Tom Orloff should start with this complaint to investigate Russo and provide answers to why has Russo, Mark Morodomi, Randy Hall, Janie Wong, Anita Hong, Sophia Li, Demetruis Shelton, Elizabeth Allen, Erica Harrold and Michele Abney provided the case file to defendants Stephan Barber and Ron Cook for nearly a year and failed to notify the court of this unpardonable illegal breach in the chain of custody of the file; all failed and refused to provide the information sought by al-Hakim, and further failed and refused to appear under court ordered subpoena for deposition testimony twice and under court ordered subpoena for trial testimony and have caused al-Hakim and family to be forced from their $1 million plus home and office, foreclosed from an over $20 million law suit, and multi million business for 12 years thru the City Attorneys violation of the business and professional codes, extrinsic fraud, subornation of perjurious testimony, committing these acts under the color of law with unclean hands, and should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. He did this with the aid of this same army of City Officials! Shouldn’t Attorney General Jerry Brown, and Alameda County District Attorney Tom Orloff investigate and prosecute Oakland City Attorney John Russo and those named and unnamed above to the full extent of the law.
Attorney General Jerry Brown, Oakland City Attorney John Russo and Alameda County District Attorney Tom Orloff Open Government, Open Records Programs
Brown Mandated Open Access To Records
Attorney General Jerry Brown mandated open access to records in the Legislature and Governor’s office. Brown also signed a bill increasing the number of available public records in the Governor’s office, courts and Legislature.
Misconduct of Orloff Refusing To Provide Records
These videos of Oakland City Council Meetings reveal the continued misconduct, corruption, and cover-up as the Oakland City Council, Deputy Chief Jeff Loman reported that several request were made to get needed information from the District Attorney’s Office to complete a report and inviting Mr. Orloff to come and answer some of the questions for the committee and he declined.
*Orloff Refuses To Provide Oakland City Council Information On Cases, 1st Occasion

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6P5c4K0bYg&hl

In a November 27, 2007 report to the Council, Deputy Chief Jeff Loman reported that a request was made by the Council to get needed information from the District Attorney’s Office to complete a report and spoke to Tom Rogers from the District Attorney’s Office about inviting him to come and answer some of the questions for the committee and he said he had spoken to Mr. Orloff, and he declined the invitation. Councilmember Nancy Nadel said “It should be public information. I don’t understand why we can’t get it. I know he’s speaking in a lot of public forums other than this one saying they need different courts, et cetera. So, I just…I don’t get it.”
*Orloff Refuses To Provide Oakland City Council Information On Cases, 2nd Occasion

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5pbgEviXKI&hl

Again In a March 11, 2008 report to the Council, Deputy Chief Jeff Loman reported that a written request was made by the Council to get Mr. Orloff to appear by the Council to get needed information from the District Attorney’s Office to complete a report and they never received a response.

“Ex-BART Cop’s Attorney Wants Alameda District Attorney Out”
http://www.kcbs.com/print_page.php?contentId=3910136
In a April, 29 2009 Associated Press article entitled “Ex-BART Cop’s Attorney Wants Alameda DA Out” Attorney Michael Rains, attorney for a former BART police officer accused of murdering an unarmed man on New Year’s Day, wants the Alameda County District Attorney removed from the case.

“County’s Top Cop Is a Scofflaw”
http://www.eastbayexpress.com/news/county_s_top_cop_is_a_scofflaw/Content?oid=743002
In a article by Robert Gammon printed June 4, 2008 in the East Bay Express entitled “County’s Top Cop Is a Scofflaw”, District Attorney Tom Orloff admits to regularly and illegally smoking cigars inside the main Oakland courthouse, as he and his office was sued for systematic sex discrimination. Court records from the case reveal that over the years, particularly in the 1970s and ’80s, the District Attorney’s office resembled
a sort of West Coast version of Animal House, with white male prosecutors drinking regularly, swearing incessantly, making racist and sexist comments, posting pictures of scantily clad women on office walls, and feeling up female employees. And over the past fourteen years, Orloff has stood atop the office, smoking cigars in the courthouse three times a day, as if he were some fat-cat political boss, instead of the top law enforcement officer in the county.
“It’s the courthouse. I mean if you walk into the courthouse or try to go there on a regular basis and start smoking, it’s a crime.” Orloff told Full Disclosure that the revelation about his smoking in the courthouse was “embarrassing.” It’s also a misdemeanor. “To a certain extent, when I was doing that, it shined a bad light on me,” he admitted.
In his own deposition, Orloff freely admitted that when he joined the office in the 1970s, it was like “a guy’s fraternity,” that included “quite a bit of drinking” and “was fairly raucous,” according to court records. But Deputy District Attorney Ronda Theisen testified that the office was more than just an old-boys club when she became a prosecutor in the 1980s. “I was coming there from being a Teamster on the loading docks at the Oakland Tribune,”
Theisen said in her deposition, according to a summary of it in court records. “And I didn’t hear the kind of language that was very freely expressed, the sexist language, the homophobic language, the racially insensitive language, anti-Semitic language. It was like there were no censors in the District Attorney’s office. … The District Attorney’s office had this extraordinarily cavalier attitude towards women … there were pin ups, cheesecake photos on the walls. Men seemed to have no compunction about laying their hands on women.”
Panetta said in her deposition, according to a summary of it in court records, that she and other women were excluded from “male-only” events that provided opportunities for her male colleagues — but not female — to interact with male supervisors and managers. Panetta pointed to one of those events known as “Muster Madness” or “Muster Magic,” which essentially is a huge all-male party that includes dinner and lots of drinking and is held annually the night before the office’s mandatory meeting of all attorneys.
In addition, some current and former prosecutors testified that Orloff has a hot temper, regularly uses profanity in the office, and repeatedly referred to women in derogatory terms. Jim Anderson, the former head of the office’s death penalty team and Backers’ onetime supervisor, testified that Orloff referred to prosecutor Sandy Quist as “a bitch,” as in, “That bitch is causing grief to the troops.” Prosecutor Lisa Faria testified that after she discussed retirement benefits issues with other attorneys, Orloff phoned her and yelled at her: “What are you doing asking people about this? I should fucking let you have your fucking union and retire.” And both Panetta and Backers testified that Anderson once told them that Orloff referred to Quist as a “cunt.”

Russo’s “Oakland Open Government”
In his Public Service Announcement entitled “Oakland Open Government” Russo touts his staff and points out Mark Morodomi and Michelle Abney as “The Advocate for the Public”. Morodomi proclaims “Citizens have a right to see documents”. City motto is “Jus Por Popolo” meaning “Law in the Service of the Public” to give you the tools and the resources to compete fully in our local democracy.
On his website in his brassy, self-touting manner refers to himself as “The Leader for government transparency and civic reform!” – Pragmatic Progressive Leadership!,
City Attorney John Russo describes himself as “passionate that all Oakland citizens have a right to a safe community, good job opportunities, a thriving economy, and a responsible and transparent government.”

In a Neighborhood Law Corp promotional video one city attorney states he believes “they are the grease between City Hall and the community”. If Oakland City Attorney John Russo truly believes they are the grease between City Hall and the community, Brown and Orloff must investigate why Russo, Mark Morodomi, Randy Hall, Janie Wong, Anita Hong, Sophia Li, Demetruis Shelton, Elizabeth Allen, Erica Harrold and Michele Abney provided the al-Hakim case file to defendants Stephan Barber and Ron Cook for nearly a year and failed to notify the court of this unpardonable illegal breach in the chain of custody of the file, all failed and refused to provide the information sought by al-Hakim, and further failed and refused to appear under court ordered subpoena for deposition testimony twice and under court ordered subpoena for trial testimony. They cause al-Hakim and family to be forced from their $1 million plus home and office, foreclosed from an over $20 million law suit, and multi million business for 12 years thru the Oakland City Attorneys violation of the business and professional codes, extrinsic fraud, subornation of perjurious testimony, while committing these acts under the color of law with unclean hands, and should not be prosecuted to the full extent of the law! Why have they all failed and refused to provide the information sought by al-Hakim, and further failed and refused to appear under court ordered subpoena for deposition testimony twice and under court ordered subpoena for trial testimony?

Attorney General Jerry Brown, Oakland City Attorney John Russo and Alameda County District Attorney Tom Orloff Ethics Programs
Brown Accepted $52,500 Campaign Contribution From Businessmen He’s Investigating
To portray the true vision of “Governor Moonbeam”, one simply needs to analyze Brown’s actions of taking over $50,000 from a series of defendants in a law suit filed for the People of the State of California. What were these donations really for? Was this another “Shake Down” or “Buy-Off”? How was this ever to benefit the People of the State of California? Why were they returned only after they were discovered by the public and media? For someone in such a high visibility position, in law enforcement at the highest level, allegedly a proponent of transparency and accountability, allegedly a proponent of campaign reform, civic reforms for government and law enforcement, prosecuting ethics violations, prosecuting white collar crime, and prosecuting corruption, how does he justify the “mistake” of taking donations from these types?

In a July 7, 2009 Associated Press article entitled “State Attorney General Returns Campaign Donations” California Attorney General Jerry Brown returned $52,500 in campaign contributions from an investment firm and the relatives of two businessmen his office is investigating to Brown’s campaign committee, Jerry Brown 2010. The donations from four family members of Sacramento lobbyist Darius Anderson and the firm of Los Angeles political fundraiser Daniel Weinstein were returned on June 29 so it would not “distract” from the office’s work.
Anderson co-founded Gold Bridge Capital, and Weinstein runs Wetherly Capital. The companies are being investigated in connection with a public pension scandal. Neither of the men has been charged.

Russo States “that City employees should be held to the highest ethical standards; that there is a formidable crisis of lack of public confidence in Oakland City Government”
In their ROAR video Oakland City Attorney John Russo and City Auditor Cortney Ruby state they truly believe “that City employees should be held to the highest ethical standards; that there is a formidable crisis of lack of public confidence in Oakland City Government”, that people are fatally mad about the unethical behavior, and abuse of power rampant in the City Government; that Oakland truly deserves a new day”; if Russo is honestly “mad about it; that it is truly time for Oakland in quoting Russo “To Get On With It!” to clean up corruption”; that Russo and Ruby “truly wants to enact, and enforce their self authored Whistleblower program”; and they sincerely “want the public to believe that the City Government is operating on the level”, then Attorney General Jerry Brown and Alameda County District Attorney Tom Orloff should start with this complaint to investigate them and provide answers to why Russo, Mark Morodomi, Randy Hall, Janie Wong, Anita Hong, Sophia Li, Demetruis Shelton, Elizabeth Allen, Erica Harrold and Michele Abney provided the case file to defendants Stephan Barber and Ron Cook for nearly a year and failed to notify the court of this unpardonable illegal breach in the chain of custody of the file; all failed and refused to provide the information sought by al-Hakim, and further failed and refused to appear under court ordered subpoena for deposition testimony twice and under court ordered subpoena for trial testimony and have caused al-Hakim and family to be forced from their $1 million plus home and office, foreclosed from an over $20 million law suit, and multi million business for 12 years thru the City Attorneys violation of the business and professional codes, extrinsic fraud, subornation of perjurious testimony, committing these acts under the color of law with unclean hands, and should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. He did this with the aid of this same army of City Officials!
Attorney General Jerry Brown, Alameda County District Attorney Tom Orloff and Oakland City Attorney John Russo Pretentious Lawsuits and White Collar Crime
Brown, Orloff and Russo $electively “$ettled” Pretentious Lawsuit$
In various press conference videos regarding another widely publicized “cash for keys” lawsuit against alleged loan and real estate agents involvement with foreclosed properties, Attorney General Jerry Brown, District Attorney Tom Orloff and Oakland City Attorney John Russo claimed that certain parties were taking advantage of tenants that were illegally being provided money to vacate the properties in question. Where Attorney General Jerry Brown, Alameda County District Attorney Tom Orloff and Oakland City Attorney John Russo have selectively “settled” some of the suits, they never filed suits against some of the greatest purveyors of these crimes and have attacked many minority agents of these alleged crimes and changed the laws to regulate their ability to make a living. This change of laws and regulation was to afford a new profit center for attorneys whom now are proliferating the market and advertising their services!
Oakland City Attorney John Russo and J P Morgan Chase recently agreed to a settlement that includes a $35,000 payment to the city. The settlement also includes an example of a legal notice that banks can use to determine the occupancy of a foreclosed property  in Oakland.  How does this settlement compensate the foreclosure victims and why aren’t the white collar criminals prosecuted for their crimes just as any other criminals and minorities? In truth, the “settlement” was no more than a way to excuse the exorbitant untold millions of dollars in fees, fines, penalties, restitution, sanctions, costs, actual and punitive damages they were liable for if found guilty of their crimes. How does these criminal litigation tactics of protecting the corporate crooks benefit the victims, the public? Further, these corporate crooks are NEVER sent to jail for their White Collar crimes, yet most minority, immigrant, or religious minority violators are sent to prison with maximum sentences for alleged minor violations. Brown and Orloff must investigate why and how Russo engineered this “settlement” in the interests of justice and the people of the State of California.
In a press conference video regarding another pretentious lawsuit against landlords, co-city municipality Oakland City Housing Authority, Oakland City Attorney John Russo boasts of a “settlement” that in truth was no more than a way to excuse the exorbitant untold millions of dollars in fees, fines, penalties, restitution, sanctions, costs, actual and punitive damages and LOSS OF PROPERTY they were liable for if found guilty of their crimes if they were a common landowner. How does these criminal litigation tactics of protecting the corporate crooks benefit the victims, the public? Further, these corporate crooks are NEVER sent to jail for their White Collar crimes, yet most minority, immigrant, or religious minority violators are sent to prison with maximum sentences for alleged minor violations. Brown and Orloff must investigate why and how Russo engineered this “settlement” in the interests of justice and the people of the State of California.

In a Neighborhood Law Corp promotional video regarding another pretentious lawsuit against co-city municipality EBMUD, Oakland City Attorney John Russo complains that he “doesn’t want a Katrina like catastrophe here”, that in truth was no more than a way to repair high valued property he and his friends have an interest in and excuse the exorbitant untold millions of dollars in fees, fines, penalties, restitution, sanctions, costs, actual and punitive damages they were liable for if found guilty of their crimes. How does these criminal litigation tactics of protecting the corporate crooks benefit the victims, the public? Further, these corporate crooks are NEVER sent to jail for their White Collar crimes, yet most minority, immigrant, or religious minority violators are sent to prison with maximum sentences for alleged minor violations.

Further, Brown and Orloff must investigate why Russo, Mark Morodomi, Randy Hall, Janie Wong, Anita Hong, Sophia Li, Demetruis Shelton, Elizabeth Allen, Erica Harrold and Michele Abney provided the al-Hakim case file to defendants Stephan Barber and Ron Cook for nearly a year and failed to notify the court of this unpardonable illegal breach in the chain of custody of the file, all failed and refused to provide the information sought by al-Hakim, and further failed and refused to appear under court ordered subpoena for deposition testimony twice and under court ordered subpoena for trial testimony and has cause al-Hakim and his family to be forced to live like Katrina victims imprisoned from their $1 million plus home and office, foreclosed from an over $20 million law suit, and multi million business for 12 years thru the Oakland City Attorney’s violation of the business and professional codes, extrinsic fraud, subornation of perjurious testimony, committing these acts under the color of law with unclean hands, and should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law! Shouldn’t Attorney General Jerry Brown, and Alameda County District Attorney Tom Orloff investigate and prosecute Oakland City Attorney John Russo and those named and unnamed above to the full extent of the law!
In a Neighborhood Law Corp promotional video regarding another widely media exposed lawsuit against alleged slumlords, Oakland City Attorney John Russo boasts that certain landlords were being “intransigent” in cooperating with the City so “he attacked them with an army of law enforcement and City Officials”, that Russo and City Auditor Cortney Ruby truly believe “that we want citizens to do as the City choses voluntarily, and if not, we will compel citizens to do it and if they fail- we will shut them down!”; must Russo and the City Attorneys be shut down for their continued failure and refusal to provide answers why Russo, Mark Morodomi, Randy Hall, Janie Wong, Anita Hong, Sophia Li, Demetruis Shelton, Elizabeth Allen, Erica Harrold and Michele Abney provided the case file to defendants Stephan Barber and Ron Cook for nearly a year and failed to notify the court of this unpardonable illegal breach in the chain of custody of the file!? They have all failed and refused to provide the information sought by al-Hakim, and further failed and refused to appear under court ordered subpoena for deposition testimony twice and under court ordered subpoena for trial testimony and have caused al-Hakim and family to be forced from their $1 million plus home and office, foreclosed from an over $20 million law suit, and multi million business for 12 years thru the City Attorneys violation of the business and professional codes, extrinsic fraud, subornation of perjurious testimony, committing these acts under the color of law with unclean hands, and should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

Brown, Orloff and Russo $electively “$ettled” White Collar Crime Lawsuit$
In these following news articles in this section Brown announces multi million dollar settlements corporate crooks, killers and profiteers who reported “grossly inflated” drug wholesale prices, kick backs, collusion, concealment and price fixing. These are serious criminal charges! Some of these resulted from whistle blower lawsuits filed around the United States by the federal government, and other state attorneys general. Their illegal activities largely effected poor, minority, immigrant and elderly consumers. How does these settlements compensate the victims and why aren’t the white collar criminals prosecuted for their crimes just as any other criminals and minorities?
In this press release/news article Brown boasts of joining forces with several County District Attorneys suing Target for illegally dump hazardous waste in local landfills and violating Unfair Competition Laws.  This suit will obviously settle, so how will this settlement compensate the victims and why aren’t the white collar criminals prosecuted for their crimes just as any other criminals and minorities?
“Brown and District Attorneys Sue Target Corporation for Illegal Disposal of Hazardous Waste”
In a June 15, 2009 News Release from Green Liver entitled “Brown and District Attorneys Sue Target Corporation for Illegal Disposal of Hazardous Waste” states Brown is fighting to protect Californians from exposure to “toxic and corrosive” chemicals, as Brown and 20 District Attorneys and the Los Angeles City Attorney filed legal action against Target Corporation to block the retailer from continuing to illegally dump hazardous waste in local landfills and violating Unfair Competition Laws.

In this television broadcast and news article Brown boasts of suing a Wells Fargo subsidiary for securities fraud and not returning the funds to the investors as other banks have. Oddly enough, Wells Fargo is one of the greatest offenders in the foreclosure crisis yet they have not been prosecuted by Brown, Orloff or Russo. To make matters more clear, the front organization that is leading the alleged foreclosure litigation in Oakland for Russo, Oakland’s Neighborhood Law Corps thru Centro Legal de La Razz and East Bay Community Law Center, is sponsored by Wells Fargo! Wells has been sued in other states for their illegal activities regarding forcing bad loans onto largely black consumers. **Bank Accused of Pushing Mortgage Deals on Blacks – NYTimes View or download document by clicking here.
“AG Brown Sues Wells Fargo Subsidiaries” (But not Tom Orloff or John Russo)
http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/story?section=news/business&id=6776
In a KGO ABC-TV April 23, 2009 report by Carolyn Tyler, Attorney General Jerry Brown is suing subsidiaries of San Francisco-based Wells Fargo, accusing them of fraud. The lawsuit is trying to get Wells Fargo to return more than $1.5 billion to thousands of customers.
Wells Fargo isn’t the only bank that sold these particular securities. But it may be the only one that hasn’t paid investors their money back. So after waiting more than a year, the state is now suing for fraud.
In a July 15, 2008 News Release from the Office of the Attorney General entitled “Brown Announces $23 Million Drug Price Settlement With Bristol Myers-Squibb”, Attorney General Jerry Brown announced that California will receive $23 million of a $515 million nationwide settlement with Bristol-Myers Squibb.
“Brown Announces $23 Million Drug Price Settlement With Bristol Myers-Squibb”
http://ag.ca.gov/newsalerts/print_release.php?id=1587
The settlement resolves allegations that the company reported “grossly inflated” drug wholesale prices to California’s Medicaid program in an effort to maintain its market share of prescription drugs.
“The Medi-Cal system requires companies to accurately report drug prices to the state,” Attorney General Brown said. “Bristol Myers-Squibb grossly inflated its reported drug prices and then used the artificially high price to increase its market share. The Bureau of Medi-Cal Fraud and Elder Abuse will continue to investigate and prosecute any alleged fraudulent conduct by any health care provider whose services or products are paid for by Medi-Cal,” Brown added.
The settlement agreement follows a drug-price investigation into Bristol Myers-Squibb and former subsidiary Apothecon that was launched in 2001 by California, the federal government, and other state attorneys general.
The investigation was triggered by various whistle blower lawsuits filed around the United States. During the inquiry, Bristol Myers-Squibb voluntarily disclosed potential violations of state and federal anti-kick back law.
California found evidence of violations including: reporting artificially high average wholesale prices for prescription drugs to shut out competitors, organizing kickback schemes to lure pharmacies and wholesalers, illegally marketing an adult anti-psychotic drug as a treatment for children, and hiding the lowest sale price for Serzone to underpay Medicaid.

Orloff’s Prosecutorial Misconduct, Selective Prosecution, Fraud, Cover-Up, Protecting Criminals and Retaliation
This article by a former colleague reveal the continued misconduct, corruption, cover-up and retaliation as Tom Orloff and the District Attorney’s Office refused to investigate and prosecute known criminal actions, blamed the victims, and retaliated against those that exposed his own criminal activity.
“Open Letter to Tom Orloff” from Dave Wier
In a January 16, 2007 “Open Letter to Tom Orloff” from Dave Wier, he is making the equivalent of a virtual citizen’s arrest, which in his case is an indictment of Mr. Tom Orloff, District Attorney of Alameda County for gross negligence of his duty in office as he had been elected to office to build cases against the guilty, not to blame the victims with witnesses available and willing to finger the guilty party. Weir stated “lawyers take an oath. I believe you have violated that oath, Mr. District Attorney, and that therefore you do not deserve re- election”.
Steve White’s article and blog here is a clear indictment of Orloff’s prosecutorial misconduct, selective prosecution, fraud, cover-up, protecting known criminals and their criminal acts, and retaliation.
Steve White vs. District Attorney Tom Orloff
www.alamedacountyda.com
From November 15, 2006 to present Steve White has had an ongoing case against District Attorney Tom Orloff wherein he has reported several crimes of a local VIP lawyer to him, all many serious felonies, and he did nothing to prosecute the man, probably because he was a local Judge’s older brother.(Martin Nakahara, older brother of Judge Vernon Nakahara)
When he took my complaints public, he was threatened repeatedly, and finally prosecuted, on entirely spurious legal grounds, to shut him up.
White says Orloff is  “more thug like” and nepotism, by the way, is rampant in Alameda County, generally, and the District Attorney’s office.(and according to some people, the Sheriff’s office)
Tom Orloff has given out and very large, but still unknown, number of jobs to the close relatives of VIPs — politicians and judges primarily.
The Alameda County Human Relations Department won’t give out employee names — that’s a blatant violation of state law –so we don’t know how much nepotism there is, but the place is notorious for it. Read a short list,(White found several more examples since putting this online, and need to update it) on his web page: www.alamedacountyda.com/Nepotism.html
Orloff filing phony charges to silence whistleblowers like White,(and he has been told he’s done it to others) is a lot worse than hiring some deadwood into the organization, but they are related, White thinks.
Orloff does everything he can to make other VIPs happy, because that’s the best thing for him politically.
Not filing charges against VIPs,(which is absolutely typical for him, he either does not file charges, or, if a case has already made the newspapers, he will file very light charges) and hiring their relatives, are two sides of the same coin- keep the privileged people happy. The rest don’t’ count so much.
Russo’s Incredulous Display of Self-Percieved, Self-Annointed White, Male, Elitist, Socio-Economic, Class and Privilege
As mentioned earlier, the press conference videos regarding the widely publicized “cash for keys” lawsuit against alleged loan and real estate agents involvement with foreclosed properties, Oakland City Attorney John Russo exhibits an egregious display of extreme racism, inhumanity, hatred, and regurgitates his incredulous display of self-percieved, self-annointed White Male Socio-Economic Class and Privilege.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ny_r1OyGnec

Russo verbally exercises these demons as:
1) Russo feels that if he, as a white male City Attorney wrongs a black man, all Russo has to do is apologize, he tells the blackman to move on with his life, the matters forgotten and Russo goes on unscathed to harm others with his racist ways;
2) but Russo feels if the blackman is wrong, he will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. How more blatantly racist can Russo be!? Shouldn’t Russo also be prosecuted to the full extent of the law for his crimes? Why can’t the blackman simply apologize like Russo feels he can if he’s wrong? Russo was elected to enforce equal justice under the law, not to evade and obstruct investigation nor offer apologies when he gets caught breaking the law. Russo is verbally exercising his perceived white male upper class privilege and social economic status while engaging in selective prosecution and feels he’s above and immune to the law!
In our video we included Russo’s blatant, repulsive display of cruel horrifying bigotry, hatred, and islamophobia as:
3) John Russo takes a blatant bigoted swipe at Muslims and Islam with a well known reference of terrorist rhetoric as Russo laughs while mocking muslims with this common reference at a time when many feel it’s patriotic to slaughter Muslims around the world. This is a great display of John Russo’s bigotry, insensitivity, and true feelings of inhumanity toward man.
These revealing examples of the real John Russo that clearly exhibit his true beliefs as they pertain to blacks, minorities and racism; his being above the law with his self-percieved White Male Upper Class and Socio-Economic Privilege; Bigotry and inciting Islamophobia in feeding fear and hatred of Islam and Muslims.
With this expose, even a blind man can see!
