TO ALL RADS IN THE WORLD;

I TRUST THAT THIS LEAF WILL FALL INTO YOUR LAPS AND HEAR WHAT I HAVE TO SAY!
AND IN RETURN, HOPEFULLY GAIN YOUR SUPPORT AND RESOURCES FOR AN ACTION OF REDRESS.
BACK IN JUNE I WAS HARASSED
BY THE LOCAL POLICE IN MY TOWN, AND UPON THE FINDING THAT I COMMITTED NO CRIME, WAS
RELEASED. BUT, NOT WITHOUT FIRST BEING SCRUTINIZED, QUESTIONED CONTINUOUSLY BECAUSE
OF MY CONDITIONS OF PROBATION AND RACE.

AFTER REALIZING THAT THE OFFICER HAD NO LEGAL BASIS TO ARREST, DETAIN OR QUESTION
ME, HE BECAME ANGRY AND INSISTED I NOTIFY MY P.O. WITHIN 72 HOURS THAT I WAS PULLED
OVER. AND COMMENTS TO FOLLOW, "...OH MR. FISHER, BE SURE TO TELL YOUR P.O. THAT YOU
SMELL OF ALCOHOL ALSO." WHICH WAS A TACTIC EMPLOYED BY THE OFFICER TO INFER THAT I
VIOLATED CONDITION OF MY PROBATION.
WHICH I HAD NOT.

I WAS NOT DRIVING MY VEHICLE, AND WAS A PASSENGER, THEREFORE I DID NOT NEED TO
LEGALLY COMPLY WITH ANYTHING THE KOP ASKED OF ME. THESE KOPS IN PARTICULAR KNOW OF
MY PROBATION STATUS AND WERE TRYING TO AGITATE ME BECAUSE I HAVE PLACED PRIOR
COMPLAINTS AGAINST THEM.

NEEDLESS TO SAY, I WAS VIOLATED ON MY PROBATION, AND UNKNOWINGLY A WARRANT WAS
ISSUED BY MY P.O. (SHE BELIEVED THE KOP), AND WAS ARRESTED AT MY HOME BY GUN POINT,
BY THE SAME KOPS IN QUESTION, AND WHO PULLED ME OVER A WEEK BEFORE. GO FIGURE THAT
ONE.

I WAS ULTIMATELY SENTENCED TO 90 DAYS IN THE COUNTY JAIL, LOST MY JOB AND REINSTATED
18 MONTHS PROBATION. IN ORDER FOR ME TO AVOID A LONGER JAIL TERM OF 22 MONTHS, I HAD
TO STEP ON MY BELIEFS AND CONSCIENCE, AND LIE TO THE JUDGE THAT I HAD CONSUMED
ALCOHOL "SOMETIME" THAT DAY. I THEN RECEIVED THE FULL FILE OF PAPERWORK AND SEEN
THAT IN WRITING, THE WHOLE KOP STATION KNEW OF MY CONDITION AS A PROBATIONER. THUS
GIVING RISE TO THE ELEMENTS OF OF A HARASSMENT COMPLAINT, WHICH I COULD'VE USED IN A
CONTESTED HEARING. NONE OF THIS WAS DISCLOSED TO ME EARLIER AND HAD IT BEEN, I
COULD'VE WON THE ALLEGED, FABRICATED VIOLATION THE KOP MADE TO MY P.O.! WITH THIS, I
AM PLANNING FOR [1] PUBLIC PROTEST AT THE KOP SHOP ONCE I AM HOME, AND ANYONE
INTERESTED OR WHO CAN PROVIDE SUPPORT, PLEASE CONTACT ME @
ironhousecreations@yahoo.com or at:

FREDERICK FISHER,
ANOKA COUNTY JAIL,
325 E. JACKSON STREET,
ANOKA, MN. 55303

(UNTIL 9/12/10)

I'LL BE HERE...IN SOLIDARITY, FREDERICK FISHER
