— Ace Kerry Pickett interviews deputy sheriff turned Congresswoman Sandy Adams.
"I hope that the Attorney General takes a very hard and close look at this, because itÂ’s putting our citizens at risk and in danger--because theyÂ’re having people arrive at their house with heightened awareness--because they had a 911 call with a report of shots fired or holding people hostage or whatever the quote-unquote 911 call was for," Rep. Adams explained.
A new voice is also crying out for investigations into the SWATtings: Brett Kimberlin, who says he now the fourth victim of the SWATtings. On his blog, the Velvet Revolution (which I would not go to; just trust me) he says he, too, is a victim.
But Patterico has a screenshot.
Patterico also notes that the ABCNews report on this affair was published on June 6th, and the reporter was still working on it June 5th. She contacted Kimberlin for comment -- but no mention of the SWATting appeared in her article.
I have written to her to discover if Brett Kimberlin mentioned this May 31st SWATting.
It's possible he did, but claimed this off-the-record. Why he would insist on it being off-the-record, I don't know. He's never been shy about proclaiming the various ways he's been victimized before.
Perhaps he had good reason, though. Because whoever SWATted Brett Kimberlin has upped the stakes, because the phantom SWATter is now engaged in what I call Secret SWATtings.
Subsequent to inquiries I made this morning, I received the following email from the Montgomery county Maryland public information office:
Good Morning,I searched our 911 call database for the above listed address [Kimberlin's]. There was no call listed for 5/31, nor anything similar to what you described. I then searched each of our 6 districts for the entire day of 5/31 for a murder in progress, murder just occurred or murder occurred earlier call with negative results. I then spoke with our director to determine if this type of incident was brought to his attention recently and it was not. If your research proliferates any further detail that would help us to narrow down the search, please let me know. I can always check another address if you find one, but for the time being, I donÂ’t see anything similar to what you described.
Lee Stranahan sought comment from Kimberlin's lawyer Kevin Zeese. Although Mr. Kimberlin is willing to post about his ordeal on his blog, and offer a reward for information leading to the identification of the SWATter, he sniffs "We do not intend to try this matter in the press. We have no further comment at this time."
There will be justice in this matter. Count on it.
Please do not do anything which would actually give Kimberlin some ammunition in his thirty year campaign of claiming he's a "victim" of a grand conspiracy.
There's an old lower-case-p proverb:
Though the mills of God grind slowly, yet they grind exceeding small; Though with patience he stands waiting, with exactness grinds he all.
Just so Brett Kimberlin understands this proverb and does not think it's a "death threat," the proverb means that God (or, as I intend it, cosmic justice) is slow, but ultimately metes out a very fine justice indeed.
Patience.
If you read Citizen K, you'll become very accustomed to a pattern: First, Kimberlin makes a claim. Then the author asks law enforcement and witnesses about the claim, and, oddly enough, their version of "reality," as Mark Singer terms it, disagrees sharply with that of Kimberlin.

Ace and Patterico and RSM have been doing a good job.
We need to help them by bringing this up to our senators and representatives and to the media. BK hates publicity. He is his own worst enemy. We do not need to be bombastic or confrontational. Let BK try that.

Meh. I don't think they'd really take any flak for reading BK's record into the Congressional Record. That would do things like grant Aaron Walker immediate (or near immediate) relief. You're probably right, though, at least as far as Federal anti-SLAPP legislation goes.

This is one more example of the left doing what I would call "spending social capital". There are certain conventions that make American society different from, say, sub-Sahara Africa or Russia. Sure, we have a great constitution, but I've come to realize that the social capital is just as, if not more, important. An example: social capital is what allows an author to go to a book signing without armed guards and a metal detector. Dropping "glitter bombs" which (until impact) are indistinguishable from a mortal attack rapidly erode this capital. Pretty soon, there are no more book signings. The list goes on.
One of the conventions of society is that you don't call the SWAT team on your political enemies. It’s such a convention, in fact, that nobody ever needed to tell me or anybody reading this. We just knew it was wrong. If “don’t fake SWAT calls against your enemies” is no longer the social convention, but must instead be enforced by the rule of law, with Congressional intervention, then that creates a new bureaucracy to enforce it. The bureaucratic burden of enforcement will reduce the effectiveness of the SWAT teams. By burning this bit of social capital, the left will have made us all less safe, not to mention making society less civil.
There is a breaking point to all of this. Pull enough threads out of the fabric of social capital, and the whole thing unravels. That is why this is not a minor issue, but a huge step on the road to anarchy. The blue model is dying, but don't expect it to go quietly.

Yeah, it's almost as if they don't really believe their hateful rhetoric.
Don't get too worked up about who hasn't signed it yet. This is really inside blog stuff and a lot of Congressmen don't know much about it. Would you sign it if somebody shoved it under your nose?
Where I see this taking off is at the local level. All it takes is one local cop to track down a false SWAT call and it's over.
Even if Holder doesn't go after this, it sends a signal to local law enforcement that this is worth pursuing.

People in Texas largely spit when someone mentions "green energy." We know (as people who get lots and lots of both sun and wind) the limitations of "green energy" and realize better than most that it's never going to work on a large scale.
Corrupting the Ewings to push your Liberal agenda (well, not yours obviously) is not going to sit well.

To the extent I think there's *anything* to this (and I'm doubtful), I'd guess that someone called the cops and said something like "You've got a convicted bomber perjuring himself to get people thrown in jail, and you're doing NOTHING about it?!"
Which Kimberlin is then taking to be a "SWATting."<<<<
I don't think anything of the sort happened. According to everything I've read about him, and I've read a lot, he lies even when there's no advantage to him doing so.
Remember, he chose to go back to prison for four years to avoid paying the judgment to Carl DeLong's widow. Do you know how easy it would have been to plead financial hardship, file bankruptcy or to set up a nominal payment plan just to show his willingness to comply? He traded four years of freedom when he could have bought it on the cheap.
This is not a rational player. Trying to figure out his motives is pointless. You already know his character; it's safe to assume that whatever he does, it's with the worst of intentions.

In Maryland:
"Service of process may be made by a sheriff or, except as otherwise provided in this Rule, by a competent private person, 18 years of age or older, including an attorney of record, but not by a party to the action."
That person has to sign a form stating that they properly served the documents as required. However, it's a common tactic to serve the papers using the last known address even if one knows that's not where they now live. The litigant and the server are not required to investigate (they may request forwarding or address service from the USPS) where the defendant currently lives. Also anyone at that address who accepts the papers whether or not they're the defendant or a relative or acquaintance signs for the papers but may or may not forward them to the defendant.
The only out for someone who didn't get properly served is to go to court and try to get the default judgment vacated due to improper service. They have to show that the plaintiff knew where they were or that service was defective in some way. All that just restarts the whole ball game. The suit with discovery and interrogatories and requests for evidence is still on and can be expensive, nerve wracking and time consuming.
Those who do this don't care whether they win or not because winning the suit or not is not the aim. The aim is to cause the defendant to lose time, money, sleep whatever to the point that they might agree to settle the suit and then not ever blog or comment again. Or to divulge information that would open others to lawsuits. At least that's what it appears is the case.

If Kimberlin and company were smart they would withdraw all pending suits and go dark until everything blows over a few years down the road. But if they were truly smart they would never have started any of this anyway. Typically the people who do this sort of stuff have so little self-control and so little grasp of reality that they can't help themselves.

"My local paper still publishes the police's blotter report. Does Bethesda?"
Volunteers stream police-scanner radio feeds so that others can listen in online. I have an Android app that lets me pick a city - any city more or less - and listen in. Some of the bigger cities even have archives of the daily broadcasts over the last couple months.
I'm betting it wouldn't be THAT HARD for someone to take the time and find an archive of the relevant police radio broadcast(s).
Heck, even ask the pilot for the camera chopper for any of the local TV stations. Might only be anecdotal evidence, but I imagine they (or someone they know) keep an ear on the police scanner most of the day, listening for any good calls that they might need to go get ready and cover. An all-hands, Code One, shooting in progress (and all the associated chatter as the event unfolded) would have gotten noticed.

Wasn't KITT red for the remake? I remember at one point, Michael asked for "virtual reality mode" which made a crappy CG HUD show up on the windshield.
Having grown up on a steady diet of Speed Racer and the original Knight Rider reruns, I was the biggest, dorkiest hybrid of car junkie and tech junkie as a kid when that show came out. Even I thought it was sucky.

I will contact Rep. Sam Graves and urge him to sign this letter.
I hope those guilty of this abuse are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
In my opinion, a short, skinny, blond white guy would have been frequently raped in prison, possibly hundreds of times over the years. That makes me smile.

Mark Steyn's column on the obtuse judge is brilliant.
Oh yes. Momentum is growing on this through legal channels and visibility.

Woah.....the judge, Judge Vaughey, said that.... "When someone did something up there to you, your sister, your girlfriend, you got some friends to take them for a ride in the back of the truck."
That is surreal.
What this judge said, is the same sort of "actionable" remark that BK was using as his reason for wanting a 'Peace Order'.
Un-freakin-believable.

Yes, because they went with a Ford Mustang when GM stopped production of the Pontiac Trans Am. Sad but true.
Will Arnett was also the voice of KITT who replaced Val Kilmer when he was dropped/forced out.

Not a single Democrat sign the letter? As the request itself is apolitical (or should be), what exactly is the Democrat's response as to why this matter is not worthy of DOJ investigation?
Is there a DNC official position?

She looks like she could be Kim Reaver's older sister (She played Jack Bauer's GF in a couple of seasons of 24 and was on Grey's Anatomy)

Well hello back to ya, MammaAJ! I'm here in the heart of Shreveport.
Back when Fleming was running for the first time and he had 2 or 3 Republicans trying for the seat as well at the time, he came to a Medical Society dinner and sat right next to me for the entire dinner (my hubby is a doc). I talked to him quite a bit, but I kept thinking at the time that the guy didn't have a chance at winning. Huh... who knew? I can say this, I do know how he honestly feels about the individual mandate.... but lets just say that at least he's been voting in the right way, as far as I know anyway...

When some friends and I were exposing and reporting pedophiles on YouTube a few years back, a few of the smarter ones would create sock puppet accounts disguising themselves as anti-pedophile activists and then attack their own primary, overtly pedophile accounts as well as other, high-profile pedophiles such as Nigel Oldfield, the publicity-seeking convicted child molester from Yorkshire, or the 40-year-old pedo from Toledo who called himself Logansperman2. By attacking themselves, they could then allay suspicion and play the Protector of Children role and use these 'anti-pedophile' accounts to ingratiate themselves with trusting (and often unsupervised) children. It gets convoluted, I know, but the same principle is at work here.
If there are any doubts about Kimberlin being involved in this SWATing tactic or even originating it himself, his own claims of SWATing should dispel it. He gives himself away. Kimberlin and his few close associates (whose names escape me at the moment) are behind it for sure. Kimberlin's confirmed it. And, of course, he wants us to know he's behind it. He thinks he's the Moriarity of the Left or some shit: untouchable and unbeatable, too smart to be caught and held accountable. I'm here to tell you he isn't, no more so than any other low-rent predator like Oldfield, who thought he was untouchable and unreachable, too; that is, until his police-sealed home and work address information somehow suddenly became public knowledge and emailed to every adult sex-abuse survivor's group in England.

If I were Eric Holder, I would jump at the opportunity to discuss anything other than Fast and Furious and hundreds of dead Mexicans killed in a scheme to roll back second amendment rights.
"What's that you say? 'Who farted'? Why, that was me, and in fact I'm pretty sure I pooped myself a little bit. Let's focus on that for a while, shall we?"
In fact, I could imagine Eric Holder being so desperate to bring something else to the fore that he might ask a liberal activist, a little-known cog in the crony/political patronage system who happens to have a history of dirty tricks and shenanigans, to get something started. And we'd all be playing into their hands, the farther down this road we go.
Or am I being paranoid?
