I was there at the and testified at one hearing on the new WSBA Standards of Indigent Defense. I absolutely agree that Washington State is not doing its fair share to fund the public desfense programs and protect the constitutional rights of low income and minortity people and their children!
HELP ME FIX THINGS!!!
YOU TOOK AN OATH!!!
ATTORNEYS
For ATTORNEYS that oath reads like this:
- “I am fully subject to the laws of the State of Washington and the laws of the United States and will abide by the same.
- I will support the constitution of the State of Washington and the constitution of the United States.
- I will abide by the Rules of Professional Conduct approved by the Supreme Court of the State of Washington.
COUNTY OFFICERS
For COUNTY OFFICERS and other elected officials that oath reads something like this:
“I, _____, do solemnly swear [or affirm] that I will support the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution and laws of the State of Washington, and all local ordinances, and that I will faithfully and impartially perform and discharge the duties of the office of _____, according to the law and the best of my ability.”
BREAKING THE LAW
EVERY ONE OF YOU should know that the current funding for CPS and the Washington State Justice System DOES NOT allow Counties to meet CONSTITUTIONAL REQUIREMENTS for Public Defense of Children, Criminal Defendents or alleged Victims! (Read Corrupt Courts and Leo Abused at the links above if you have any doubt about the state and county failure to meet CONSTITUTIONAL REQUIREMENTS!) That VIOLATES the CONSTITUTIONS that YOU have SWORN TO UPHOLD and results in a failure to do your duty to UPHOLD THOSE CONSTITUTIONS which seems to Break The Law under RCW 42.52.900 and RCW 42.20.100!
We need the new WSBA Standards Of Indigent Defense!
USING THE TRILLION DOLLAR TORT CLAIM
The TRILLION DOLLAR TORT CLAIM gives COUNTIES and ATTORNEYS cause to:
- Force Washington to fund its constitutional obligations to all children in ; defendancies and all indigent defendants;
- Clean up the corruption by allowing you to hire people with higher ethics and requiring cameras for all contact with legally innocent people (which includes all defendants until convicted); and
- Requiring the reporting of misconduct and corruption by attorneys and judges!
WE CAN FIX THINGS NOW!
Much like was done in McCleary v. State, 173 Wash.2d 477,269 P. 3d 227 – (Wash Supreme Court 2012)!
The alternative:
The alternative is that all counties and municipalities could see their own TRILLION DOLLAR TORT CLAIM lawsuits ESPECIALLY CLASS ACTIONS due to the mess caused by the PUBLIC DEFENDER CRISIS. INDIGENT DEFENDENTS WERE EFFECTIVELY DENIED THE VIOLATIONS OF SPEEDY TRAIL, WITHOUT DELAY, EFFECTIVE ASSISTANCE AND EQUAL PROTECTION!!!
