Allege That:
On
August 31, 2001, one Scott Teter did plan, conspire and act to assassinate two
persons, Tom Crosslin and Rolland Rohm, for their political beliefs, in
violation of the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, the First Amendment to the Michigan
Constitution, the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, the Fifth Amendment to the Michigan
Constitution and the state statutes defining murder and conspiracy to commit
murder.
Subsequent
to this, Mr. Teter did act to obstruct justice in violation of several state
laws, specifically, access to public documents, and Michigan’s Oipen Meetings
Act concerning public meetings.
Specifically,
Mr. Teter:
1)
Used his office of District Attorney of Cass
County, Michigan, to convene a television press conference on August 31, 2001,
to declare, pror to a trial scheduled on that date, that Mr. Tom Crosslin and
Mr. Rolland Rohm were guilty and would be sentenced to up to 30 years in
prison, in violation of the due process clauses of the the Fifth Amendment to
the U.S. Constitution, the Fifth
Amendment to the Michigan Constitution.
2)
Was
motivated by his disagreement with the strong and vocal political stand taken
by Mr. Tom Crosslin and Mr. Rolland Rohm in favor of legal initiatives to allow
the use of cannabis by adults, in certain circumstances, and other provisions
of the legal petition in the State of Michigan known as the Personal
Responsibility Amendment.
3)
Issued
Press Releases about the subsequent killings of Tom Crosslin and Rolland Rohm
that were inconsistent with one another, and with known facts stemming from
physical evidence, tending to obstruct justice;
4)
Further
obstructed justice by witholding public documents germaine to the physical
evidence, specifically the autopsy report on Rollande Rohm by the Cass County
Medical Examiner;
5)
Further
obstructed justice and conspired to obstruct justice by obstructing access to
the public meeting in the Cass County Courthouse Jan. 7, 2002, by those
knowledgeable about the case with representatives of the Press.
These
facts being true to the best of my knowledge and belief, I hereby demand that
the Michigan Attorney General begin proceeedings to prosecute Mr. Scott Teter
for the above alleged crimes.
