Who was the first judge who was arrested and subsequently resisted arrest? So-called Judge Donald M. Spilseth!
Yeah Donny, I made you my little bitch that day, didn't I?
Donny's arrest made it onto the front page of the rag called the West Central Tribune (They're a bunch of political whores, aren't they?)
How can a prisoner act as a judge? Answer: He can't, can he? On March 13, 2007 Assistant County Attorney, Shane Baker stated in open court: "The state refuses to pick up the charges." What charges? The charges leveled in the arrest of Donald M. Spilseth in open court on March 13, 2007. The VALID arrest was made by Terry Dean, Nemmers in open court on March 13, 2007. How can you tell it was valid? Shane Baker confirmed
the validity by declining to prosecute. {Only a prosecutor can bring charges into court to prosecute you} Thanks Shane!
I have two lawyers and one judge who have testified that the arrest was valid:
1. Shane Baker - Assistant Kandiyohi County Attorney: Refused to pick up charges in court.
2. Boyd Beccue - Kandiyohi County Attorney: Announces recual in open court.
3. Donald Spilseth - Judge for the Eighth Judicial District: Files recusal because of arrest.
In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established. 2 Corinthians 13:1 KJV
What was the first complaint I filed against a judge? It was against this crook Donny, wasn't it?
Here is what Donny teaches his thugs (Bailiffs) to do - steal your paperwork that you are trying to sign and then make false statements that you "refused to sign" it.
Anthony is thug, isn't he?
I went to the court adminstrator's office and made a big scene. I told how Spilseth's thug ripped my paperwork from my hands as I was signing it. Not only did they give me a new paper to sign they gave me the original that Anthony, the thug, stole from me. Thanks for the evidence!
Did you know I was special? My little bitch Donny hired me a private attorney. Have you ever had a judge hire you a private attorney? See I am special.
Donny hired a back-stabber called Jenna Fischer.
I called Jenna Fischer a back-stabber in court, didn't I Jenna?
Jenna didn't want to follow orders and report that crook Spilseth, did she? Isn't that right Jenna?
Shane Baker just about wet his pants when I told you I was going to report you to Donny, didn't he? [We have to be kind to Shaney since he did admit that Donny was under arrest during court, correct? I'll never forget what the idiot said "The state refuses to pickup the charges!" The dope admitted that Donny was under arrest right there and then, didn't he?]
Jenna Fischer is the newly elected County Attorney for Kandiyohi county. Jenna got that job for helping my litle bitch Donny cover-up his resisting arrest, didn't she? Jenna turned out to be a back-stabbing bitch, didn't she? Well actually she was assigned to back-stab me. However, I never let her close enough to stab me in the back!
Ready for the cameras, Jenna?
Hand-written notes from Jenna [the back-stabber] on March 13, 2007. It's a trap. The average idiot would jump at the deal. Sorry Jenna but I arrested the judge, so I never was convicted, was I? (Minnesota Statue 629.37) You wanted me to take a deal and get convicted, didn't you! Sneaky bitch! I was too smart for her, wasn't I? Thank you Lord!

The Pseudo-Warrant: Proof that Donny was arrested on March 13, 2007
Notice that the date and signature are missing from the Judge's signature line on page 3? Also, the boxes for determining whether the warrant is limited to just the state of Minnesota or a nation-wide warrant are not checked either. This is just a scrap of paper that has "warrant" printed upon it. It is not a legal warrant, is it? No, it is a just prop. A prop in a malicious arrest. A prop in a malicious prosecution. Finally, it is a prop in a malicious imprisonment. It says: "Recommendation of supervisory agency and request for: WARRANT"
Notice that the space for the date and the Judge's signature are both empty! Plus, the box is not checked for the scope of the warrant.
WARRANT ... WARRANT ... WHOSE GOT THE WARRANT?
Without a warrant the thugs from Pope County had no right to arrest Terry Dean, Nemmers or enter his home, did they? This is a career-ender for Riley, Larson, Stafsholt, Siebel, Kundrat, Fischer and Spilseth, isn't it?
Did Judge Jon Stafsholt violate Due Process against Terry Dean Nemmers/ArrestaJudgeKit?
Sounds reasonable when the armed thugs don't have a warrant, right? Actually, the crooked assholes never pulled out the phony warrant until after they broke into the house. Timmy was just re-writing history (engaging in perjury) to make his thugs sound "honest," right?
Why would I go outside (or let them in) when I knew they didn't have a valid warrant before they ever came near the house? How could a judge who was on the front page of the 03-14-07 edition of the West Central Tribune for being arrested (and resisting arrest) sign a valid warrant? He couldn't, could he? That's why Spilseth had to recuse himself from the malicious prosecution.
Of course, it's important to make sure that the police do have an arrest warrant for you, before leaving the safety of your home. If you answer the door and the police say, “Come on outside, so we can talk to you,” it's likely that they don't have a warrant and are just trying to lure you out then – where they can easily detain, question and pat search you, in the hope of finding grounds for arrest. You should say no, close the door, and call a criminal defense attorney.

Okay a little context here. On 07-20-07 two (2) Sheriff's deputies, one (1) probation officer and one (1) city cop come to my door to maliciously arrest me for trumped up weapons charges (Gross Misdemeanor - Max Jail time 1 year), right? On 09-17-09 a SWAT team (Stevens County - not Pope County - What?) is sent to maliciously arrest me for a trumped up failure to appear charge ( Misdemeanor - Max jail time 90 days) Do you see something wrong with this picture here? Well the agenda-driven shit for brains won't but the sane people should, right?
The thugs from Pope County own report said they entered the home and assaulted Nemmers. That makes it a HOME INVASION with a weapon and with bodily harm to the occupants - Burglary in the first degree.
Timmy? Timmy? Timmy? WARRANT. . . .WARRANT. . . WHOSE GOT THE 07-20-07 WARRANT? Timmy these statutes [Mn Statute 629.13; Mn Statute 625.03; Mn Statute 629.402; Mn Statute 611.01] say that you're a liar (Perjurer right?), don't they?[Flyer with statutes]
If they were "smart" they should have back-dated the phony warrant, right?
It says: "Recommendation of supervisory agency and request for: WARRANT"
"RECOMMONDATION I respectfully recommend a warrant be issued for Terry Dean Nemmers and that he be brought before the Court to address the alleged violation of his probation dated this 23rd day of July, 2007 Signed Deborah West, Director Kandiyohi Community Corrections Corrections Bob Tepfer, Probation Officer"
The Phony Warrant was fraudulently signed FIVE (5) days later -- after the malicious arrest. I guess the sheriff was supposed to use a time machine to go back in time to apprehend me, correct?
"Therefore Terry Dean Nemmers is to be apprehended by the Sheriff, taken into custody and brought before the Court.. Dated 7/25/07 Signed Frank J. Kundrat Judge of District Court"
This asshole Kundrat was imported from Stearns County. Why? All the complaints I filed against the local crooked judges and Spilseth's 03-14-07 front page arrest in the West Central Tribune! See - crooked judges from the beginning to the end!
This is the crook (or asshole if your prefer) who signed. As I said, they had to import this asshole from Stearns county (The Seventh Judicial District).
Kandiyohi is in the Eight Judicial District. Whose said my complaints and the arrest of Spilseth didn't work? This asshole wouldn't have been imported if they weren't effective.
The crooks in Pope county obviously think the rule of law is a joke. That is why Pope county is in a state of anarchy. This anarchy is justice for the crooked cops (escaping consequences for criminal acts) and injustice for everyone else. The crooks with badges and guns feel they need to break the law to enforce the law. That is the very definition of lawlessness. How can anyone feel their family is safe in a county where the thug cops (or elected officials) refuse to follow the rule of law?

This is an example of Notice of Non-Delivery form from the Kandiyohi County Jail. By reading this form you can see that sending a disc (which would be classified as a weapon .... aka contraband) would be not delivered for the following reasons:
1) Item was confiscated as evidence
2) Constitute a threat to the safety and security if the facility, specific individuals, or the general public.
3) Pertains to sending contraband into or out of the facility.

Made the July 13th Police blotter: Here
Released on own recognizance. (It is crucial to remember this very important detail)
A recusal from Judge Jon Stafsholt? Oh yeah you were witness, weren't you? Didn't you make that little bitch sound when I tried to hand you the flyer in the courthouse immediate prior to my malicious arrest? Or was it because of all the complaints I filed or helped file against you?
Pay close attention to all the dates in regard to the recusal. Timely notification? Not hardly.
The phony Trespass bill
The printing and release of Lion News issue #3 dated 05-28-10 forces Douglas County Sheriff Troy Wobersen to break the invocation of his right to remain silent, doesn't it?
Sheriff Wolbersen engages in stonewalling tactics and avoids all the embarrassing and incriminating questions, doesn't he?
Sheriff Wolbersen's bill to the Pope County Commissioner appears to be lacking the name Terry Dean, Nemmers, doesn't it? Why does the billing invoice #3677 for October 19, 2009 shows that Terry Dean, Nemmers was there, doesn't it? Is the Sheriff trying to hide the fact that Terry Dean, Nemmers was just a political prisoner run through a kangaroo court? Sheriff Tom Larson engaged in the criminal act of perjury in Nemmers' case, didn't he? Mary Teresa Lehtola engaged in the criminal act of perjury in Nemmers' case, didn't she? Wouldn't the bill to the County Commissioners for Nemmers remind them of the malicious prosecution? So many question and so many video opportunities.
Note: You will notice that Sheriff Wolbersen does not address the tampering with the legal mail "hot potato." Wait a minute! I thought I was in jail? This says I wasn't! Can you find the name "Terry Dean, Nemmers"? I can't! Wait a minute, I arrested that crook called judge Randall Slieter (special judge from Renville County), didn't I? Who says arresting a crooked judge doesn't work!
Sheriff Tommy Larson gets his bitch-ass handed to him by a gray-haired grandmother of 5:
..........................................................
Some of the crooked tricks of so-called Judge Gerald Seibel. First, my charge is in Pope County. However, for some odd reason I am to have a hearing in Stevens county on January 16, 2008. Since I am representing myself I get the notice and inform my mother that the hearing in in Morris. She drives to Morris on the date mentioned only to find that they moved the hearing back to Pope county. I did not find out about this until I was in the transport car being taken to Pope County. The hearing was held up until my mother could arrive.

http://www.worldlingo.com/ma/enwiki/en/Reid_technique
Resisting Reid technique
The Reid technique works to the extent that the suspect aligns himself with the interrogator and accepts his explanations for the suspects motivations and actions.
To be successful the interrogator must:
1. Establish and maintain control over the source and the interrogation.
2. Establish and maintain rapport between the interrogator and the source.
3. Manipulate the suspect's emotions and weaknesses to gain his willing cooperation.
Resistance therefore requires denying the interrogator control of the interrogation, preventing the interrogator from building rapport, and preventing any attempts at emotional manipulation. The suspect must maintain an attitude of detached hostility and skepticism at all times.
The Reid Technique has three main places of weakness. The initial announcement of guilt, the use of leading questions to obtain incremental agreement, and the assumptive close. Each of these can be challenged individually and all of them rely on the assumption that the interrogator is a credible source of information.
Attacking and denying the interrogators credibility serves several purposes. It reduces the interrogators ability to communicate, it disrupts the interrogation process, it creates a healthy state of opposition in the suspect that prevents internalization of the interrogators ideas, and it allows the suspect an outlet for anxiety and fear.
The initial opener can be challenged by denying guilt and forcing the interrogator to explain and justify his beliefs. Making personal questioning attacks on the interrogator's honesty and sincere intentions can quickly create a hostile atmosphere that is not conducive to successful interrogation.
Leading questions can be challenged on the premise that things that did not occur, and are speculative in nature. Consistently pointing out the speculative nature of statements/nature made by the interrogator and refusing to give personal opinions, prevents incremental agreement. Again creating opportunities to express skepticism and hostility to the interrogation process.
The assumptive close can be neutralised by preventing the creation of a "compliant atmosphere" and by pointing out that both forks of the question are invalid.
http://www.worldlingo.com/ma/enwiki/en/False_dilemma
False dilemma
The informal fallacy of false dilemma (also called false dichotomy, the either-or fallacy, or bifurcation) involves a situation in which only two alternatives are considered, when in fact there are other options. Closely related are failing to consider a range of options and the tendency to think in extremes, called black-and-white thinking. Strictly speaking, the prefix "di" in "dilemma" means "two". When a list of more than two choices are offered, but there are other choices not mentioned, then the fallacy is called the fallacy of false choice.
When a person really does have only two choices, as in the classic short story The Lady or the Tiger, then they are often said to be "on the horns of a dilemma".
False dilemma can arise intentionally, when fallacy is used in an attempt to force a choice ("If you are not with us, you are against us.") But the fallacy can arise simply by accidental omission—possibly through a form of wishful thinking or ignorance—rather than by deliberate deception.
When two alternatives are presented, they are often, though not always, two extreme points on some spectrum of possibilities. This can lend credence to the larger argument by giving the impression that the options are mutually exclusive, even though they need not be. Furthermore, the options are typically presented as being collectively exhaustive, in which case the fallacy can be overcome, or at least weakened, by considering other possibilities, or perhaps by considering a whole spectrum of possibilities, as in fuzzy logic.

Examples
Morton's Fork
Very often a Morton's Fork, a choice between two equally unpleasant options, is a false dilemma. The phrase originates from an argument for taxing English nobles:
"Either the nobles of this country appear wealthy, in which case they can be taxed for good; or they appear poor, in which case they are living frugally and must have immense savings, which can be taxed for good." [1]
This is a false dilemma, because some members of the nobility may in fact lack liquid assets.
False choice
The presentation of a false choice often reflects a deliberate attempt to eliminate the middle ground on an issue. A modern example of this is George W. Bush's speech of September 20, 2001, in which he said
Every nation, in every region, now has a decision to make. Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists.[2]
Black and white thinking
A common form of the false dilemma is black-and-white thinking. Many people routinely engage in black-and-white thinking, an example of which is feeling boundless optimism when things are going well and suddenly switching to total despair at the first setback. Another example is someone who labels other people as all good or all bad.[citation needed]
There is no alternative
The assertion that there is no alternative is an example of the false dichotomy taken to its ultimate extreme, in which the options are reduced to one, the proposal of the speaker. Of course the speaker does not believe there are no alternatives otherwise he would not bother to argue the point; rather he opposes the alternatives and seeks to dismiss them by denying their existence.
"This was the mantra chanted by 'dries' during the prime ministerial reign of Margaret Thatcher, by which they demonstrated their belief that free-market capitalism was the only possible economic theory. It was said so often amongst them that it was shortened to TINA. The hard-right Thatcherites called themselves 'dries' to demonstrate their opposition to the 'wets', i.e. the One-Nation Tories whom Thatcher despised. Wet was the public school nickname for any boy who showed any sign of caring for his fellow beings."[citation needed]
How to tell a false dilemma from a true dilemma
Consider the following three patterns of reasoning, the first valid, the others invalid.
* Example 1: Three is an odd number. Only even numbers are evenly divisible by two. Therefore three is not evenly divisible by two. (Valid, because every natural number is either even or odd.)
* Example 2: Since this number is not three, it must be four. (Invalid, because there are more than two numbers.)
* Example 3: Since one-half is not even, it must be odd. (Invalid, since one-half is not a natural number, and the terms "even" and "odd" only apply to integers numbers.)
To determine whether a dilemma is true or false, you must check first whether the two choices offered are the only two possible choices, and also whether the choices are appropriately applied to the case at hand.

Complaint made by Judd Hoff on November 16, 2010
WARNING:
Use of Arrest Reports in Criminal Cases
Arrest reports are almost always one-sided. They recite only what the police claim took place, and may include only witness statements that support police theory. While they are generally not admissible as evidence in a trial, arrest reports can have a major impact in criminal cases. Not only do arrest reports often determine what charges prosecutors file, but they also may play a key role in how much bail is required, the outcome of preliminary hearings (where hearsay evidence is often admissible), the willingness of the prosecutor to plea bargain, and trial tactics (for instance, the police report can be used to discredit testimony of the police officer who prepared the report).

Oh my look! An individual named Joshua Ross Erickson has made legal determination that Terry Dean, Nemmers and Judd Hoff are engaged in illegal activity. He has published that legal determination on a public forum. I certainly hope Joshua Ross Erickson has clear precise and unquestionable proof of that claim.

Handling Citizen Complaints through Proactive Methodology
By Louis M. Dekmar, Chief of Police, LaGrange Police Department, LaGrange, Georgia
Law enforcement organizations nationwide deal with complaints on a frequent basis. Some citizen complaints are unfounded or simple misunderstandings resulting from poor communication. However, even minor infractions can become agency spectacles and a serious problem for administrators if individuals carry their grievances to third parties. Police leaders can easily prevent citizen complaints from becoming political headaches, lawsuits, racial disputes, or media storms by emulating some of the medical community’s proactive initiatives to reduce malpractice litigation when patients experience negative outcomes. In addition to a thorough policy of consistently handling complaints, successful resolution requires patience, a respectful response, and the right attitude on the part of the supervisor receiving the complaint. If done correctly, these three simple ingredients can spare police agencies untold time, money, and difficulty while helping the agency maintain its credibility with the community.
Consider how many citizen complaints involving encounters with police officers go awry because of how individuals are treated during the initial interview process. An angry citizen enters a police department to file a complaint against an officer. The on-duty supervisor greets the citizen in the lobby and asks about the complaint. The citizen begins to provide a detailed description of the incident. After less than a minute, the supervisor politely interrupts the citizen and attempts to explain why the officer behaved in a particular fashion—and to tell the citizen why the officer’s behavior followed agency policy. Frustrated by the unresolved complaint, the citizen likely will leave the police department lobby.
Oftentimes, citizens will abandon their unresolved matters, instead sharing their frustration and annoyance with friends or relatives. In other instances, citizens become even more determined to obtain positive resolutions to their complaints, bringing their issues to the attention of an elected official, a city manager, a district attorney, the Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division, a plaintiff’s attorney, a media outlet, or a civil rights group. Once citizens embrace any of these alternatives, the police department largely loses control of the investigations, along with the opportunity to correct, address, and resolve the complaints in manners that preserve public confidence in the agency. So how do law enforcement agencies avoid this situation and successfully “take care of business” when addressing citizen complaints? According to a recent article by attorney Dan Groszkruger, the medical profession provides some excellent ideas.1
Think Like a Physician
Groszkruger cites studies in the New England Journal of Medicine2 and the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA)3 that detail key steps physicians should take to avoid malpractice suits. One of those studies appears to have instructive lessons for police department supervisors who are responsible for investigating citizen complaints against police department personnel.
The JAMA study found that “effective physician–patient communication . . . not the quality of the care or documentation is key to avoiding malpractice lawsuits.”4 The considerations that could improve physician-patient communication and a close reading of the research strongly suggest these concepts extend to other professions, where liability is an issue (for example, law enforcement) and where service providers have the opportunity to interact with individuals who suffered real or perceived harm.
These studies analyzed the dynamics involved between the patient and the treating physician that resulted in a bad outcome. The findings indicate that physicians who developed a rapport with their patients were less likely to be sued than those who did not. What does that mean to police officials? It suggests that when law enforcement supervisors receiving complaints effectively communicate that they are sincerely concerned about a citizen’s problem, the interaction is likely to reduce potential litigation.
The following five-step model for improving police-citizen communication is based on the medical profession’s success in reducing medical malpractice lawsuits:
1. Spend time with the complainant. The agency representatives should provide citizens plenty of time to fully air their complaints. According to Groszkruger the studies reveal “a strong correlation between extra time spent . . . and lower frequency of . . . claims.”5 Citizens do not want to feel rushed, minimized, brushed-off, or disrespected. To accomplish this, supervisors should be prepared to spend as much time as necessary to gain the details of the complaint and the issues in conflict. Radios, cell phones, and other distractions should be eliminated if possible.
2. Meet in a private place. Agency supervisors should always have a private place to meet with a citizen who is filing a complaint against a police employee. The location should include a place for the supervisor and the complaining citizen to sit and discuss the nature of the complaint. Seating everyone involved during the initial complaint intake significantly calms emotions and communicates that the agency representative is prepared to spend as much time as necessary to listen to everything the citizen has to share.
3. Establish a rapport. After creating an atmosphere that demonstrates the complaint will be handled in a serious and deliberate fashion that will not be rushed, it is paramount to establish effective communication and rapport with the complainant. The supervisor should explain the process and time lines for conducting a sufficient inquiry into the facts and circumstances related to the complaint.
4. Allow citizens to describe the complaint without interruption. Once the supervisor has established a rapport, the citizen should be able to explain the incident without interruption. While receiving the citizen’s description of the incident, agency personnel should refrain from filling any empty time or pauses with questions or explanations while the complaining party is gathering its thoughts and explaining grievances.
5. Ask facilitating questions. After the citizen has provided the details of the situation, the supervisor should ask a series of facilitating questions that demonstrate how seriously the police agency is taking the complaint. For example, the supervisor may ask, What about the officer’s conduct particularly upset you? What would you like to see occur as a result of your complaint? Why do you think the officer behaved that way? You look upset—what can I do to help you?
It is critical for supervisors to recognize that when they are receiving a complaint, how they say something may be as important as what they say. When talking with the citizen, the supervisor’s tone of voice and facial expressions should be neutral or supportive toward the complaining party. A supervisor can validate a citizen’s feelings and emotions without affirming allegations against police employees. For example, “I understand you are angry” or “I see you are upset, let me look into this for you” are appropriate but do not prejudge the complaint before the facts are established.
Reducing Liability, Creating Accountability
Groszkruger’s analysis of the research surrounding physician-patient communications and the reduction of liability makes a compelling case for including an orientation and facilitation component in the complainttaking process. When a supervisor provides an orientation to a citizen, it reduces emotion, anxiety, and apprehension. In addition, facilitative questions promote communication and foster feedback that assists the supervisor in gauging what is important to the citizen in resolving the complaint.
A police agency that fails to obtain, investigate, and resolve citizen complaints against law enforcement personnel can create a situation in which others define the agency. When the media reports allegations made by a citizen who is frustrated by a process or a supervisor who behaves in a way that makes it uncomfortable for citizens to approach the department, the story likely can never be effectively retracted or revised, even once the facts are ascertained. In short, without an effective citizen-police complaint process, the agency risks a tepid “the matter is now under investigation” response to media inquiries, and questions from elected officials or other community members. However, a well-documented citizen-police complaint and a thorough investigation often will result in a different media story.
Further, when a process that deliberately receives and investigates citizen complaints is in place, a police culture of accountability is sustained. Employees understand the likelihood that misconduct will be reported and that the agency will follow up on those reports. In instances where a police employee performed or behaved inappropriately, the agency can act quickly to address the issue and restore a sense of fairness to the citizen making the complaint. When an agency acts promptly and effectively in cases of inappropriate behavior or performance by a police employee, this clearly communicates that conduct is not representative of the entire agency. An active and robust citizen-complaint procedure, which provides and includes supervisor training in that process, ensures the confidence of the public, demonstrating the agency operates properly and professionally and reduces the opportunity for others to manage the agency’s business. ■

A fair amount of survey research has focused on the impact of people’s direct experiences with the police on their general attitudes toward the police. A study completed by Reisig and Chandel provides a detailed analysis of different aspects of the citizen’s contact experience with police and its impact on the citizen’s general level of satisfaction with the police department. The researchers found that the strongest predictor of the citizen’s satisfaction with the police department in general was how courteous/friendly the officer was with the citizen.
