The Donovan Jackson-Chavis Justice Committee will hold a meeting Saturday, July 13, 2002 at 5:00 pm at
Faith United Methodist Church | 1713 W. 108th Street near Western
This meeting will dispel rumors, educate the public to the truth of the matter, and build support for Donovan Jackson-Chavis, a victim of police brutality.
FACT SHEET On the Beating of Donovan Jackson-Chavis
* On July 6, 2002 around 4:30 pm, Coby Chavis and his 16-year old son Donovan stopped for gas at a local Thrifty Gas Station at Century and Freeman Blvds. in the city of Inglewood.
* Coby Chavis had made eye contact with a passing Lennox Sherrif's car, then proceeded into the gas station to pay the cashier.
* The Sheriff circled back around, pulled into the gas station and approached Coby Chavis. The Sheriff asked Coby for his license; Coby began to explain that his license was suspended.
* As the conversation progressed, Donovan came out of the gas station's mini mart eating a bag of potato chips. As Donovan approached his father and the Sheriffs, he was told to put the potato chips down. After following the instructions he was given, Donovan was searched. By this time, backup arrived screeching onto the gas station property. The screeching of police cars, as well as officers approaching him and surrounding his father, startled him. Donovan was hit in his face viciously by one of the officers; subsequently, other officers began to hit Donovan all at once.
* As this was happening, Coby Chavis was being handcuffed and placed in a squad car. He watched helplessly as his son was struck over and over again.
* Donovan was not only punched in his face, head and eyes - he was body-slammed to the ground and choked by a silver chain he was wearing until he was unconscious.
* At no time was Donovan combative with the police, and at no time did he resist arrest. WHY? The reason that Donovan had - and has - such a calm demeanor is because he is a mild-mannered, very quiet, very shy Special Education student, whose deficits include auditory processing delays. In other words, Donovan hears and understands, but has delayed reactions to things.
* The video is a key piece of evidence that cannot be denied by the police. When viewed in more detail, the video shows that not only was Donovan beaten while he was handcuffed, but he was unconscious when he was pulled up from the ground. When Donovan was slammed onto the hood of the squad car, it awoke him. Naturally, he was startled and disoriented.
* One of the officers involved referred to Donovan as a "nigger;" another officer taunted Coby Chavis by telling him, `You're going to jail and I'm going home."
* Jeremy Morse, the officer beating Donovan on the video tape, has been accused of police brutality in other incidents in Inglewood.
OUR DEMANDS:
WE DEMAND THAT
* NO CHARGES BE FILED against Donovan or his father Coby
> * AN INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATION be conducted immediately > > * CRIMINAL CHARGES be filed against all officers involved in > the beating, AND SUSPENSION FOR ALL officers and deputies who > witnessed the beating and failed to stop it > > * AN IMMEDIATE END to racial profiling and felony-type stops > for traffic violations, which lead to an escalation of violence on > the part of the police > > * PUNITIVE DAMAGES be levied against all officers found guilty > in police abuse cases > > > WHY SHOULD TAXPAYERS PAY FOR POLICE VIOLENCE?
Donovan Jackson-Chavis Justice Committee 3 1 0 - 9 7 0 - 0 0 3 2
The family of Donovan Jackson-Chavis and the Donovan Jackson-Chavis Justice Committee requests that all community responses and press releases be channelled through the Justice Committee in order to achieve maximum exposure and organization.
Thank you.
" Rodney King then ... Donovan Jackson-Chavis now ... and the beat goes on and on ..."

At this point in time, I would think that with all the things this country has been through these pass couple of months would bring a end to all the petty differences we have within our cities. Finally coming together as a people and realizing that in order for us to survive we must all come together as a people. The recent events that have taken place in LA have made me notice that the vast majority of the people walking around are only living for themselves, and not thinking about the path they are setting for their children. My heart goes out to everyone involved in this case, because they are all victims. The officers I am quite sure did not join the LAPD just to go around beating up teenagers. they once had a dream for justice and persereving a future for all people. The young boy in his father who I know had no idea that stopping and getting gas would be such an life changing exsperience. I think all people should just sit back and calmly watch justice prevail this time around. I know that if these cops are proven guilty of the crime they are accused of the system will work. We should not go out rioting causing another media playground, because we wil only loose by doing that. We are not barbarians! Nor should we act like one! To go and riot is like a child throwing a tantrum in a candy store! I assure all people we have reached a new era in America and justice will prevail! Thank you all, and may god bless you, LA, and America.

Thats right - wake up and smell the injustice !! I do appreciate your optimism and vision for a better day - but nothing comes to those who "...just sit back.." and wait for "justice" from their enemies to prevail. Martin Luther King, Malcolm X, indeed even Mandela knew, and demonstrated that it is actions that bring results. I urge you - get on up out of your seat and help America, indeed the world, to give a mighty shove in the right direction for justice in this case.
The law does not call for lethal and deadly actions against children eating potato chips. That white man is a barbarian, armed and dangerous and needs to be jailed and punished as severely as the law allows, along with his cohorts who have all somehow found a job within America's police force ! It has become an arena where many whites have traded their white cloaks for a blue suit. I wonder if ever, in the future, it would be possible for a renewal within the police force where the revival of justice is awakened - where a human rights chaperon is assigned on mission with the police, to monitor predators llike this and many others.

Sorry you dreamer but you are really deluded. Ever actually deal with a police officer? Not every single one is bad no, but you better be able to look beyond your rainbow horizon and realize that there is a dark side to life...it exists, and the longer you deny it the longer you delay wisdom that comes with understanding the total picture. In short - SOME THUGS DO JOIN THE POLICE FORCE JUST TO BE ABLE TO BEAT UP *TAKE YOUR PICK HERE* BLACKS, WOMEN, OTHER MEN, OTHER MINORITIES, SLACKERS, UNPATRIOTIC TYPES...the list goes on.
Evil, unfortunately does exist. I am a white woman living on the west side of LA, middle class, upper middle class back ground, colledge educated and the police SCARE ME. My advice to all...keep yourself, your record, your registrations and etc...squeaky clean and continue to fight injustice quietly but effectively. They won't harrass you if you don't blip on their radar screen.

I was happy to see the responses to the comment that we should "all wait calmly and let justice prevail." Rioting occurs as a reaction to police brutality not because the people lack the patience to 'wait' for our equitable justice system to prevail and repare what has gone wrong, but because this justice system is designed to prevail against the majority of the people. The police and their systematic brutality are a part of this justice system; they find their support in sympathetic judges and politicians who allow officers like Jeremy Morse to be suspended with pay despite a long history of excessive violence and a recent example of his cruel and racist tendancies caught on videotape. After so many years of racial profiling and police brutality, i think it is about time we focused on drastically transforming and radically challenging the justice system that enables this oppression to continue.

Police brutality is wrong. The police in this case should be jailed for life. Trused by the United States to be honest and up-hold the LAW, the officers beat a kid up and probably could have killed him with the amount of force used. Tax payers should be outraged that they will lose millions of dollars because > police feel free to beat up who ever they want and know that the police union will take care of them. Strict laws should be put in place so that if police abuse there power in anyway, they will face justis and get a stiff penilty. Every case should be investagated and if an officer has 3 complains against him, he should be fired.

I'm sorry but you are so racist that you are being a hypocrite. You act so uneducated, threatening with those baggy pants, yellow stoned out eyes, loud crappy rap music, and lazy. I think at least 90% of the black population needs to shut up and stop complaining that they are being discriminated. That's ALWAYS the excuse for everything and I'm sick of it. You can have your black schools, scholarships, clubs but if the white population wants to have anything even suggests excluding black people.... we are labeled racist. Now who's the hypocrite there???

A clear verification of an ongoing conflict of interest. The 'po- lice' act with the blessing of the 'rulers'. They are the enforcers of the status-quo. In this instance it was a Black child. In some parts of Texas it will be a poor Hispanic. In Appalacia, a poor White. In any case it will be a member of the perceived lower class. This is the group that will have litte or no political, economic, or financial representation. The least organized. The 'po-lice' will glory in these altercations until they are confronted, then they run to their 'union'. This union has far more clout than the citizens for whom they are to protect. Politicians try to avoid conflict with them (unions) to the detriment of the local citizens. These unions should be looked at closely. They should be limited to issues of pay, sicktime, vacation, and retirement. All issues concerned with law enforcement should be handled by the local citizens' representative (ie DA, Police Review Board). Those who fail to carry out the citizens' mandate should be exposed and replaced.

Bokeyboy mentions that "we have reached a new era in America and justice will prevail" but I ask you and all what type of new era is this. I live in Portland, Or where some of the informed citizens out there might know recently experienced yet another killing at the hands of an unexperienced police officer. Kendra James, a 21 year old (unarmed) and resisting arrest was shot once in the head after a rookie cop jumped inside the car and she put the car into drive. The cop began to fall out because he was not all the way in and apparently felt it was appropriate to shoot her in the head. This is the short version but I'm sure with research you can find the details. The officer was cleared of any wrongdoing and an independent investigation concerning the filing of police reports and investigations involving police killing citizens has shown that the Portland Police do not follow the same rules as regular homocides, lacking information and missing evidence. How does this relate? Just a local example of how this "new era" is full of "justice". If our country is in a new era, the one that I have witnessed since the bush administration's inception has been that of 1.) Patriot Act to LIMIT our freedom and rights 2.) the notion of pre emptive war is no longer a notion but REALITY 3.) Taxes reduced for the Rich and none for the Poorest 4.) Increased spending for WAR and WEAPONS while the public education school system of our inner cities crumble and go un aided. If this is a new era, I am sorry that this is an "advancement." One step forward and two back is not better, but twice as worse. I hope that we truly can find a new era were justice IS served and all those who suffer can find releif.

What some people fail to mention here is that Donovan Jackson isnt so innocent himself, he obviously fought with the police officers and if you try to strike or injure a police officer than they have the right to use force against you. If we were to find Jeremy Morse guilty , then we will be saying that its ok to fight police officers which will create more disregard for the law and more young punks causing trouble.

The only reason that Jeremy Morse got fired from the Inglewood Police Dept. and went to trail is POLITICS. The mayor of inglewood which controls the cheif of Police wanted him fired to please the community. the community tries to make everything a race issue, when in reality it has nothing to do with race, it has to do with a young punk not cooperating with police and striking police and resisting arrest. We definately dont need hoodlums like that on the street. If it had been a white kid then community wouldnt have cared!

This is in protest towards the organization "citizens for police" who are constant "trolls" on this site. This organization is formed by ignorant racist white people in favor of jeremy morse. Jeremy morse is the "cowardly" officer from inglewood california who is on trial for the chickenshit beating of an innocent child last july 6th 2002. These images were captured by mitchell crooks who was present at a hotel nearby the gas station where, Coby chavis the father of 16 year old donovan jackson was parked pumping gas. Several LA county sheriff cars descended to a "parked car" and found a black man driving a "taurus" (found to be too good a car for a black man by racist police) with unregistered tags. As mitchell crooks found in his young life, Cops have a hatred towards black people and whites who think about living in a unified world. This is how they (cops and law enforcement) infiltrate our way of being. Anyone who has ever been in prison knows how the cops keep order because of the hate they spread. They could not maintain control of the prisons or society's without spreading the racism. This is the ONLY reason they remain in control and corrupt. So back to the incident. 16 year old special Ed student Donovan jackson purchases a bag of chips with the money left over by paying to fill his fathers tank. Meanwhile after drinking heinekens all 4th of july weekend, mitchell crooks is laying down in his hotel room. Donovan walks out of the small little convenience store to find his dad in a police car for unregistered tags on his car. All this time, a young man from New zealand is taking pics of the arrest from the balcony of the hotel. (this man was flown in by the jeremy morse defense to testify against Donovan jackson) After returning to his fathers car, a hothead pig asks donovan to get out the car and put his hands up. An innocent teen who goes to church and is respectful to all? Donovan was scared to death because he knew he did nothing wrong. But, when your black, pigs hate you regardless. This pig was threatened by donovans black skin. He ordered him to stand still and not move. Donovan then put his hands in his pocket. Having nothing to fear (why wouldn't he?) he reached for his pocket and thats when the inglewood PD showed up at the scene. 5 police cars total. For unregistered tags? Inglewood PD had been briefed earlier that a "GANG" was planning a hit on a cop. And sadaam had weapons of mass destruction too? This is the excuse by the department for their actions this day. Donovan is NO gang member. His father had plates on his car, I m sorry a sticker on his car that was expired. (prolly due to the outrageous cost of registering a car which the majority is fully aware of. No officers in inglewood were "HIT" on that day or since? So on this Holiday weekend, when amerikkka is celebrating it's independence from europe, A "terrorist" opens fire at the el al terminal at Los Angeles international airport (LAX) killing two people. He was shot and killed by airport security. The Homeland Security was on high alert since the terrorist attack on 912. Shouldn't we be more concerned about protecting the citizens from terrorists? An unregistered car is hardly a terrorist threat. All this time mitchell crooks is about to uncover a terrorist plot himself. Alot of different stories about what happened after donovan put his hands in his pocket have emerged. first, nobody found a gun or a weapon on donovan. That is fact. Donovan did nothing wrong. In fact, his father was detained over an unregistered tag. That is fact. Now if donovan jackson was going to put a hit on a cop, i am the fuckin pope. Donovan was "ATTACKED" by several officers and dragged by his "bling" (a necklace to the ignorant) across the ground by jeremy morse and bijan darvish. He was assaulted by carlos lopez (the sheriff sergeant on scene) as well as all the others. Donovan fearful For his life and knowing he was innocent, struggled to keep free from the Harassment of these pigs. He did nothing wrong. He was afraid of them. They were bigger and threatening HIM. Donovan was hit over the head with a flashlight and punched several times in the head. He was BEATEN by the LA sheriff and inglewood PD. All because his father did not fill some paperwork out at DMV. This entire time, the man from new zealand (is that fag country) was taking pics of the arrest. Yet he was nowhere to be found once mitchell crooks started shooting the incident. A woman was watching the whole scene and was screaming and yelling during the whole scene. Now this woman is the true hero. She had the presence to yell the keywords out. "Dont resist" & "Stop hurting him" & "help"! she is the true hero of the day! Those keywords gave me the knowledge that pigs were hurting yet another human being. She was also not asked to testify during the trial of jeremy morse? Why? Because the District Attorney is in bed with the Police (fags). They are working together on many issues. Thats why we need a separate police prosecutor to get these pigs when they are out of line. PIGS NEED TO POLICE THEMSELVES! We need alot of extra shit like a police prosecutor and a new justice department. "You are so out bush it's not even funny". You can see my statements on that @ http://homepage.mac.com/encyte/Personal22.html at the october 22 2003 protest against police brutality http://www.october22.org/index.php So as this woman was screaming I looked out my window and thought it was a fight at the hotel. When she said "RESIST" I knew it was my clue to grab my Sony digital8 camcorder from my backpack. The citizens for police org have stated "why do we pander to these lawless individuals?" I had been on a trip around the divided states of embarrassment. http://www.angelfire.com/hiphop/edog/lyrics/2.html or watch the flash movie here http://www.sundanceonlinefilmfestival.com/animation01_15.html I was traveling around the states to film a documentary about america and it's rave culture. I had no idea the project would turn into a political one. I raced out to see this woman in panic. She was keeping her kids inside the hotel room so they couldn't see the police terror going on across the street. I flipped open the view finder on my camera and started filming the incident. When I saw donovan laying there I just started to cringe. I thought "what could he have done to deserve that treatment?" I had no idea he was a child. I thought he was a 19 or 20 something. I was freaked out by the fact that if I was filming police doing wrong I would be targeted next. As I said on my Videotape. http://homepage.mac.com/encyte/iMovieTheater14.html I was told by the woman, you can hear on the tape, "they are not going to come after you". Huh I knew better! You can see the video for yourself unedited at the above link or at www.noreversal.com So, as I was filming this "terrorist attack" by police, I thought "they are going to arrest me and punish me for doing so". I was right. More on that later. I was shocked by the coward doing this in broad daylight! There were about 20 witnesses on scene and not one of them was asked to testify at jeremy Morse's first mistrial. The DA is in bed with pigs remember? So after I videotaped the incident I gave the tape to friends cause I knew the cops would confiscate the tape and that would be the end of that. I also separated the camera from myself and changed my clothes. I knew these foreign backpackers only a little but they knew what they had seen on the videotape was wrong. The pigs came into the hotel and asked alot of people "who was the one who videotaped the incident?" Nobody snitched. Even though 90% of them knew I was the one. I grabbed a heineken and went down by the pool where people are still enjoying their fourth of july weekend. I sure as fuck did! After 912, police were regarded as heroes and shit cause a couple of the died at the trade center. So I reminded the entire world how fucked up our police Still are. haha. I went to NBC 4 and showed them the tape. They were not interested. Because I had seen police brutality all the time in LA, I thought the media was not going to take on the situation. I went back to the hotel. Later that next day, I had an appointment to see a potential loft in downtown LA. I went to that and on the way back, I went to UPN and thought they would like a copy for the news. I was happy if they showed it. When they offered 150 dollars I was excited. The News director told me to keep the rights and sell it to as many news outlets as possible. Thats when the inglewood PD was informed. I sold this tape for 150 dollars to several local news outlets. Which is a rip-off considering that the guy who videotaped the rodney king video made 50,000 dollars initially. So to those who say I did it for money, "FUCK YOU" I did it cause it should be done. The world wind of media kept calling from all over the world and wanted the permission to show this video. IF YOU WANNA BLAME SOMEBODY, BLAME THE "RIGHT WING" MEDIA. NOT ME. lol. So as soon as the police did a search on me and my name they found a misdemeanor warrant for petty theft and Dui. What you do not know, is that the patriot act has been used so many times against people it was not designed to do. For instance, I was arrested in front of CNN for misdemeanor crimes out of placer county. I was staying in a hotel (leparc in west hollywood) when a DA (steve cooley) from LA tried to illegally supeona me on a radio show. He wanted the video. When I refused to give up my location to him he enacted the patriot act. Actually to be even more honest, FBI or "whoever" were parked outside my hotel room w/ headphones on, listening to me and a friend inside the hotel the night before. When I refused to accept this Illegal supeona to testify before the grand jury, I left the hotel for fear of what I saw the night before. I was appearing on BET w/ Ed Gordon That night (w/congresswoman maxine waters). Twice that night and in the morning, my friend was approached in the hotel, by plain clothes and actual officers demanding him to tell me where I was. How did they know where I was? They had to have illegally tapped the land line inside my hotel during the radio interview. I was not registered at the hotel? I then went to a different friends house in long beach when I noticed cops casing his apartment even before we got there! Tell me how they could know this? Later that night after going to a bar, two undercover cops sat next to me and my friend till we left. They left. I stayed at his house all night long and heard people outside his door all night. Then, the next morning I call my original friend on a cell phone and he is scared to death. I call from CNN inside the building on a land line. He had a cell phone. I told him to bring the tape to CNN and the camera because I was to go onto another BET show taping out of the CNN building. As soon as he showed up, I mean within seconds, I was standing outside smoking. He dropped off the tape and 7 or so plain clothes officers assaulted me and threw me in a unmarked suv w/ tinted windows. CNN later came out and Showed the world my arrest for misdemeanor crimes that WERE NOT IMPORTANT UNTILL Capturing police doing wrong. At least 5 DOCUMENTED times, I was let go cause the warrant was not that big a deal. Now the whole world knows. So many of these "PIG LOVERS & RACIST TERRORISTS" have pointed out that I stole VCRS from my mom and had a DUI. Why is that important? Because the LADA used this to arrest me. I refused to testify to the grand jury w/o a lawyer. These warrants were not a big deal until I came forward with the tape. That is FACT. I was stopped in sacramento (one county over from Placer county) Albakurkee NM and in New york and by LAPD in fall 2003 for jaywalking by ofc. v.perez. I was let go after being booked at the culver city police department. I have proof. He should be in jail according to DA steve cooleys explanation to the LA city council that it is illegal to let someone go with knowledge of a warrant. I was refused entry to canada because of the warrant and was let go? If this warrant for misdemeanor crimes was so awful then, why didn't they arrest me then? Cause I did not film police brutality till I returned to my home LA. The charges were so PETTY that my mother was upset about the focus being turned onto me and not the pig jeremy morse. I had pawned a VCR that was in my room at my moms house in 1999. The cops had found the pawn slips in my car and trumped the charges in order to secure giving me more time in placer county jail. See I was the victim of a police attack in placer county CA as a youth (16 too?) and they hated me for it. Since I was not at fault (and the officer) they had a deep-seeded hatred towards me. If I had a competent public pretender at the time I would have beat all the charges. I was duly convicted and plead guilty at the first court hearing. (never do that) My lawyers wanted to appeal the original plea to try it again cause the charges were so weak but that would take 6 months or more. I was sentenced to six months in jail for a 0.08% dui and a petty theft w/ prior. Even tho the LA county jail had a program were they were kicking out inmates w/ misdemeanor crimes, a private jet flew me to placer county jail the day after the LADA and sheriff assaulted me for videotaping their own "terrorists". I was beaten severely by LADA's and handcuffed for 24 hours str8. That is illegal. That is fact. I was refused a visit from my lawyers and kept in a cell handcuffed to the outside of the cell all night. I was hospitalized for my injuries by the LADA. I had to serve my six month sentence anyways. I was let go on Jan. 4 2003. I have no charges and no probation/fines/classes so that is good. It worked I am no criminal. I had been turning my life around since 1999. I appeared on the TV show 7th heaven 3 times and turned it around. (check out the episode when the oldest son left the show after getting hitched to a Jew.) Even though, the judge couzins wanted to give me 2 years for bringing attention to the most racist jail in amerikka. Placer county is so corrupt. http://homepage.mac.com/encyte/iMovieTheater15.html They have a 92 % white population and have the largest republican county in Califas. They were so pissed off to see the public focusing in me. Congresswoman maxine waters along with democrat candidate al sharpton called them and threatened them that if anything was to happen to me, they would be in serious trouble. So they put me on 23 hour lock-down for 6 months. They said they needed to protect me from White power inmates? These same white power inmates I got along with and were happy to see the pigs in trouble and sweat-in. So jeremy morse was put on trial at the end of july 2003 (a year after) and was found basically guilty 7 to 5. The jury was not even given a good case but LADA's max huntsman and mikey petterson blew the case on purpose to satisfy the public. The trial was held in a courthouse nowhere near the crime scene in inglewood. The DA called all the defenses witnesses (the cops) and not a single other witness involved. they used the tape but did not supply the jury with ALL THE FACTS. The other officer Bijan darvish who beat donovan jackson was let off because the current footage does not show him beating him. He was charged with filing a false police report. That child abuser jeremy morse goes back on trial in january 2004. The trial was to start oct 22 but was moved yet again. The media was hoping for a riot and thats the only reason why they even bought my tape in the first place. They were hoping for the bigger picture. They were disappointed that inglewood did not respond by burning their own businesses and homes. This is what the citizens for police (jeremy morse pig lovers) says is the reason for the retrial. "To award a community for not burning their homes down is crazy" is what they and jeremy morse attorney john barnett (defended the rodney king pigs) is saying? That is sooooo ignorant! Barnett argued that the one black man on the original jury resembled donovan too much to be included. What a racist! He thinks all blacks look alike? What a nazi! To think that a retrial is only important because of not burning a house down is so 20 century. You nazi fucks need to come to the realization that jeremy morse crossed the supposed line. He beat a handcuffed 16 year old defenseless child! He was not a danger to these pigs he was a 100 pound child. Jeremy morse is about 220#. WTF? You harping on me and my situation is so funny to me. I am going places and doing whatever the fuck I want. Don't be jealous cause in inglewood you will not get 5 white jurors who will refuse to convict jeremy morse cause of 912. Fuck You. You nazi racist people are so fuckin hilarious to defend such a coward! What's next Ok' in a priest to fuck little children? You fuckin nazi's are powerless http://homepage.mac.com/encyte/Personal22.html you have NO control. Jeremy morse is the one on trial not me. The LADA might be overmatched (on purpose) by barnett but. not Johnny cochran and milton grimes. Oh yeah jeremy can't afford barnett for that. His mother lori pettit of torrance had to sell her home in Seattle just to pay for her nazi sons mistakes. Boo fuckin hoo. Jeremy morse will be broke and will have to hide in his home forever. I on the other hand have a lawsuit against the LADA and the media that will set me up for life. I have no worries. I am not a criminal. I have turned the corner and jeremy morse is just beginning to have his life turned around. So to all those who support police no matter what (including the 5 old white jurors) who think that a cop can do no wrong, I say FUCK YOU. You mean shit to me. You ain't seen nothing yet pigs. Sincerely, Mitchell Crooks PS. Your assumption that donovan was a violent subject is based merely on your hatred towards blacks and young america. You do not know donovan jackson and you do not know what happened before I arrived (yet). You are truly ignorant and hate-mongers. People like you make me so happy I Came forward. The world laughs at you. I really could care less about you or your chickenshit army occupying OUR streets. http://www.stolenlives.org/ http://www.copwatch.com/ http://refuseandresist.org/ http://www.geocities.com/capa_dfp2001/ http://live.axisofjustice.sparkart.net/ www.noreversal.com FOR A GOOD LAUGH http://homepage.mac.com/encyte/Menu1.html ARTISTIC VERSION IN INGLEWOOD http://homepage.mac.com/encyte/iMovieTheater11.html MY WELCOMING BACK TO LA BY SOUTH CENTRAL http://homepage.mac.com/encyte/iMovieTheater9.html OCT 22 2003 MARCH AGAINST POLICE TERROR http://homepage.mac.com/encyte/Personal22.html

Karma anyone? Oh how I love to report this! Jeremy morse a drunk driver? Oh my god! What excuses will the cop lovers have now? Especially since I was bashed so hard for driving drunk? Jeremy Morse was arrested and taken to jail after HE was caught by el segundo police driving under the influence of drugs or alchohol. This happened over the thanksgiving holiday. What is it with this guy and american holidays? What a patriot. Tom Payne he is not. I am more like payne! I shot the video! Morse was responsible for the inglewood beating of a handcuffed black child seen all over the world on fourth of july weekend 2002. Morse is facing retrial jan, 5, 2004. He is to appear on the Dui charge Jan, 20, 2004. He was tried once july, 31, 2003 for the abuse of donovan jackson but the case ended 7 guilty 5 not. This was a result of A very poor case by LADA steve cooley (who is up for reelection march 2nd 2004), max huntsman and mikey petterson. I think this will definetly ensure a conviction of jeremy in an inglewood california courthouse. He must be in the area of inglewood if he is getting drunk in el segundo. "I left my wallet in El Segundo" - tribe called quest Jeremy morse bail was set at 5,000 thousand dollars. That seems odd? Anyone who has had a DUI knows that bail is normally not that high. And ALOT of people have had a DUI. ALOT. What is so funny to me is how the jerks on indymedia blasted me so much for being a drunk driver and stealing. Don't you all look like fuckin idiots now! HAHAHAHA Jeremy must have been broken up about the cincinnati beating on TV so he "HIT The Bottle" instead. Does not look good for poor Ol' jeremy. You know how he has been "RAILROADED" and all. lol. How do you defend a drunk driver? don't believe me? http://www.bayarea.com/mld/mercurynews/news/local/7392516.htm So how is it that people can say he was justified for beating donovan yet he cannot follow the LAW? He never followed the law! Thats the entire point! He was and is a lawless thug who used his cute little uniform to take his hatred out on young people and blacks. Like so many white officers do. Especially in LA. SO WHAT IS YOUR EXCUSE NOW? Hurry up with your "spin control" cop lovers. Maybe a few of you will finally agree that jeremy morse is a coward thug. He is a monster. A lawless X cop. HOW DO YOU DEFEND HIM NOW? Do you say "It's because of all the media attention he can't handle it?" Thats sounds pretty liberal. That would mean your Hypocrits (which I knew all along) and bleading hearts lefty's. Cool! join us! WHATS YOUR ARGUEMENT NOW? "Well Mitchell stole from his mom" Well, so did Morse. His mother lost her entire home to pay for morse's actions. She sold it to pay for his legal defense or professional liar john barnett. Geez did his mom have to pawn her wedding ring? Or maybe she sold her taurus to bail him out. Time to plea bargain morse. LOL. MITCHELL IS STILL A CRIMINAL Thats why I have not been arrested before morse huh? Thats why I learned my lesson in the spotlight. Morse did not. Thats why I have turned my life around since. (I still drink but, don't drive. Have plenty of friends for that) Thats why Jeremy Morse is on Trial for 2 crimes now. Yet I am free. But yeah I am still a criminal. whatever? Bush Had a DUI and stole the white house. Maybe i will run for Prez? JEREMY MORSE IS NOT GUILTY Yeah it is pretty hard to beat a DUI case. Jeremy refused to take a breathalizer test and that leads to suspicion of Drug use. The results have not been released to the media yet. Jeremy Morse was captured by myself on video violating the rights of a child. He "slammed" donovan on a car then punched him in the face. Hard to argue that. Thats why barnett will argue about every black guy on the jury resembles donovan jackson. again. JEREMY SHOULD'VE KILLED DONOVAN Just like cincinnati? That guy should not have lunged at the cop but he DID NOT DESERVE TO BE BEATEN TO DEATH! You expected that. Some of you prolly been waiting for my post on that. Here we go again! Cops Need to follow the law and back off people a little. We have a terrorist issue to pay attention too. Protect the people at all costs. That is your job. Murdering people is not. We have TEXAS and BUSCH for that. HOW WILL YOU EXPLAIN THIS NOW? Point is I could really give a flying fuck about the fucked up comments from hypocritical jerks on here. You people inspire me in the best possible way. As long as I know ignorant hatefilled people are in the world, I will Fight the good fight! I will not read your excuses or hate. You have nothing. You are forgeting allready that jeremy morse is a drunk driver, drug taking, thug who used his uniform to beat a handcuffed child who did nothing wrong. Where are donovans charges if he was so violent? Jeremy morse is the problem. Video activists are not. ALSO, TO THOSE INTERESTED I WILL BE ON KPFK TUESDAY @ 5:00 PM with MARK SLATE TO DISCUSS THE RECENT FTAA (miami) ASSAULT AND THE INGLEWOOD CASE. TUNE IN TO KPFK.com or 90.7 on your FM DIAL on the drive home. OH YEAH MY 15 MINUTES IS UP. LOL My 15 minutes is not up to you. It is up to me. I decide when I have had enough. I am quite happy chillen on da undaground. I have no regrets. You said that when i was arrested. Then you said it when I was released. Then while the trial is going. Then after the trial. Then yesterday. Then today. You said it before Indymedia put my story on the front page. You must feel really stupid by now. Been to New york. Been all over the west. I like chillen down here where the people really matter. That statement allways cracks me up like I am going to get my feelings hurt cause my 15 minutes a up. Boo fuckin hoo. Its not up to you, It's up to me retard. One more time hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. mitchell crooks revolutionary videographer stay updated here:
