Dear Judge Mulligan:

In addition, Judge Barbalunga refused to let my attorney submit any briefs. My attorney refused to report this behavior to the Commission on Judicial Conduct, even those his rules require him to do this. I filed my own complaint, including an affidavit from a man stating that when he was younger he and nine others were hired by Judge Barbalunga to paint his house. At the end of every day he would pay them in cocaine and cash. Sometimes they would stay and drink and get high with the judge and they would watch him beat up his wife. So apparently, in court, when he would ask me and others if we had used illegal drugs or alcohol in the past twenty-four hours, I should have been asking him. The Commission refused to investigate him, as did Judge Zoll. Judge Barbalunga makes Judge Lopes look like the tooth fairy.

The lawsuit against Robert Chesbro was filed at Franklin County Superior Court and can be viewed at www.billstclair.com and www.massnews.com March, 2001. The courts would not be in the mess they are in if there were cameras in the court room and the taxpayer could see what goes on. My lawyer told me that in Berkshire County they prosecute every case, meaning that the district attorney is not being the gate keeper he is supposed to be which also leads to many false arrests because the police know the district attorney will never dismiss a case for lack of evidence, false police reports or for obvious perjured testimony from police and others. If this immoral behavior was stopped I bet we could close half the courts, lay off half of the court personnel and get rid of half the jails. The Governor says he wants to find ways of saving money. Does he really? He could get rid of Mass. State Police Dept. of Internal Affairs. It is a proven fact that they do nothing. Even if they did we already have an Attorney General who is paid by the taxpayers to investigate corrupt public servants. This allegation that Internal affairs does nothing can be proven by talking to Attorney Joel Suttenberg who represents Major Burns the former head of Internal Affairs. I think I will request, under the Public Records act and FOI the amount of money budgeted for Internal Affairs and while I'm at it the taxpayers of Berkshire deserve to know how much money was wasted on my kangaroo trial. That is money that could have gone to schools, soup kitchens and services for the elderly. Or is it more important to pay the salaries of corrupt cops, district attorneys and judges?

I can't believe you could want your family treated this way. I am not going to "get over it" until there is justice and I am made whole again.

Respectfully Yours,

Linda Hamilton
