Re: Illegal Tampering With Evidence by Commissioners and/or Staff of the Moreland Commission on Public Corruption.
Dear Commissioner Rice:

On December 17^th, 2013 the Black Star News published my article alleging felonious criminal activities by members of the Moreland Commission on Public Corruption. I also published these allegations in a blog; "The Moreland Commission on Public Corruption is Corrupt" 

The Blackstar News article and the blog alleged that the Moreland Commission illegally tampered with the evidence, by intentionally altering the official transcript for the purpose of protecting certain favored parties from investigation, in violation of many state and federal felony laws.

This letter is being sent to you personally to assure and document your awareness of these allegations. Whether or not you were personally complicit in these alleged felonies, you are now aware of the allegations, and it is your legal responsibility, under the rules of the Moreland Commission ¶ lV, to report them to the proper authorities, including the FBI. 

We have already requested a response from Commission Spokesperson Michelle Duffy, but she has failed to answer any correspondence. We are therefore asking you and your fellow commission members if there are any facts or conclusions in the Blackstar News article or the blog with which you take exception.

The Blackstar News and the “Moreland Commission Exposed” blog will publish responses to these allegations from anyone associated with the Commission. In any case we will publish a follow up article on this matter, which will include any response (or report the lack thereof) from you and your fellow commission members. We are asking that that your response be submitted no later than Tuesday, February 19th, so that it can be included in the upcoming Blackstar News article. Otherwise, it will be reported that you declined to respond. 

   Sincerely,

Will Galison

Dear Registrant:

Thank you for your interest in testifying this evening at the Moreland Commission to Investigate Public Corruption.  As mentioned in the release announcing the hearing that also appears on the Commission’s website, we are only seeking public testimony on the following three issues:

·        The adequacy of existing state laws, regulations and procedures involving unethical and unlawful misconduct by public officials

·        The electoral process

·        Campaign finance laws

In our release we specifically stated that “members of the public, as well as public officials, public policy experts, advocacy organizations and others are invited to testify or attend the hearings and are asked to address these issues.” We also asked that if you chose to testify that testimony be submitted by noon yesterday. It appears that either you did not submit your testimony by noon or your proposed testimony is outside of the scope of the hearing. Therefore we are notifying you that rather than provide oral testimony this evening that you submit written testimony

via comments@moreland.ny.gov.

Please know that only speakers who are registered to testify this evening will be admitted.

The Commission’s website is www.publiccorruption.moreland.ny.gov

October 30, 2013 Letter to Michelle Duffy, Spokeswoman, The Moreland Commission to Investigate Public Corruption.

Dear Ms. Duffy;

I testified at the first Commission hearing on September 17th, 2013 at Pace University. I recently looked at the transcript of the September 17th hearing that the commission posted with a link from your website. 

I compared the written transcript regarding my portion of the testimony with the audiovisual record of the hearing and found that there were many conspicuous errors in it. For example, my name "Galison" is represented as "Galveston" 19 times, and is not spelled correctly once. There are many other errors as well, some trivial and some substantive.  

I have several questions regarding the transcript and the errors therein.

1) Does "the record" of the proceedings reflect the above mentioned transcript or the audiovisual recording (video)? By "the record" I am specifically referring to "the record" that is mentioned on your announcement of September 19th which states "All written testimony that is submitted will be included in the record of the proceedings".

2) Did the Commission check the accuracy of the transcript against the audiovisual record (video) before publishing it on the internet?

3) Did the Commission make any corrections to the original transcript before it was published on the internet?

4) Will the Commission review errors brought to their attention by witnesses who believe that their testimony has been misrepresented?

5) Will the Commission make corrections to the written transcript if it becomes aware of errors in it?

6) If so, will the Commission publish the corrected version of the transcript on the internet?

7) Does "the record" include all written testimony that is submitted by witnesses as stated on your website? 

8) Where can "the record" be found?

Please answer all of the above questions as soon as possible as I am working on an article regarding this topic and my deadline is end of day tomorrow, Friday, November 1. 2013. If I do not hear from you by end of day November 1, 2013, I will be forced to report that you declined to answer the questions. With the exception of the first and last questions, "Yes" or "No" answers will suffice, but feel free to comment further.

Yours truly,

Will Galison

URGENT EMAILS REGARDING SUNNY SHEU SENT TO PETER ZIMROTH, FEDERAL MONITOR OF NYPD ABUSES.

Subject: The most egregious abuse of NYPD power - the surveillance, kidnapping, and murder of anti corruption whistleblower Sunny Sheu.

Mr. Zimroth;

Congratulations on your appointment as federal monitor of the NYPD.

There is a story that you may be unfamiliar with, that represents the ultimate abuse of power by the NYPD, and which has been covered up by many state agencies as well as the FBI.

On June 26th, 2010, my friend and colleague Sunny Sheu was bludgeoned to death on a remote industrial strip in Flushing Queens.

Three days earlier, Mr. Sheu had declared to the Office of Court Administration "Ethics Department" that he had evidence of financial fraud by NY Supreme Court Judge Joseph Golia,

The Queens M.E. determined the cause of death to be "Blunt Force Trauma to the head with skull fractures and braininjuries", and the manner of death "undetermined". The NYPD maintains that Sheu died of an "aneurism" with "no head trauma". There has been no investigation.

Weeks prior to his death, Mr. Sheu made a video, later posted on Youtube, in which he says he was kidnapped and threatened with death by two NYPD detectives of the Queens DA Bureau if he disclosed the evidence against Golia. His illegal, warrantless detention was verified by Queens DA spokesman Kevin Ryan. Sheu also stated that the he begged the FBI for witness protection against Golia and the two Detectives. He further stated that if he were killed, it would be at their hands. The FBI ignored Sheu's plea and his evidence of judicial corruption. Since his death, they have never responded to communications or accepted evidence.

109th Precinct detective Ardisano, claimed that there was no witness to Sheu's death, but detective Austin of the samesquad wrote a letter to the M.E., claiming that a witness.

The NYPD ignored FOIL requests and appeals for documentation of the circumstances of Sheu's death, including thew alleged witness' testimony. Finally, when subsequent requests were forwarded to Christine Quinn, the NYPD furnished documents so heavily redacted as to be useless.

In plain terms, The NYPD kidnapped and threatened a civilian with death if he reported corruption, then after his brutal murder sent false evidence to the Medical Examiner in an unsuccessful attempt to sway his determination, and has covered up this murder for three years.

Commissioner Kelly has ignored all correspondence demanding transparency and accountability.

Shortly before his death Sheu, who had been a computer communications expert in Taiwanese intelligence, showed me forensic proof that his email communications had been intercepted and manipulated by someone at www.nypd.org, the non-governmental internet presence of the NYPD.

Further information and documentation of the case can be found at www.sunnysheu.blogspot.com

A thoroughly documented article on the case was published by Truthout.org.

Mr Zimroth; this case demonstrates the underlying depravity and criminality of the police department whose policies you are investigating.

 

This is nothing less than a Government sanctioned assassination of an anti corruption whistleblower, covered up, if not committed and sanctioned buy the NYPD at the highest level.

If you want to make a real and lasting difference regarding abuses by the NYPD, you will use your office to investigate this crime, wherever and to whomever it leads.

I hope to hear from you regarding this critical issue. 

Thank you. 

Will Galison

Mr. Zimroth,

I am a part-time reporter for the Black Star News and Truthout.org. I wrote you recently about an assassination which is being covered up by the NYPD, who also appear to be complicit in its perpetration.

I have not yet received any response to your office.

This cover up of this crime seems to be so important to the NYPD that I fear I and other witnesses and reporters with information about it are also in danger of retribution. As you know Ray Kelly is an advisor to the committee and he knows my name well, from the letters the Blackstar news sent to him regarding the case.

Mu immediate concern is that I may be barred from testifying at the Moreland Commission Hearings, out of fear that I will further disclose this case on the public record, and put Mr. Kelly and others on the spot

.

I registered to speak at the hearing before the registration form was added to the page and again less than one hour after the form was added. I have metadata proving that I registered before the roster of witnesses could possibly have been filled. If I am barred from speaking at the hearing it cannot be because I registered late or because I do not have urgently important corruption to report. It will because my testimony is being blocked by corrupt commissioners.

From nines years of fighting official corruption in New York State, I am very familiar with many of the names on the roster of Moreland Commissioners. I don't need to tell you that many are deeply complicit in crimes and corruption.

New Yorkers are counting on you to make the Moreland Hearings more than a sham, a waste of taxpayers money, and a pretext for continuing the official corruption that has become the norm in NY government.

Your acknowledgment of receipt of this letter will give me confidence in your commitment to fighting corruption in New York.

Thanks very much, 

Will Galison
