Terrell Scott's Torture Continues in Pennsylvania


Terrell Scott is pictured top, left in the collage above. Scott is a mentally ill black man who has been interned for over five years in Pennsylvania while denied his Sixth Amendment right to a trial. All the other mentally ill Americans in the photo were killed by law officers. Brian Claunch was a double amputee who was shot to death while sitting in his wheelchair in a Texas care home, "armed" with a ballpoint ink pen. Kelly Thomas was a homeless mentally ill man who was beaten to death by six Fullerton, California law officers. Larry Neal was secretly arrested (kidnapped) and interned in Memphis Shelby County Jail Scott for 18 days before being murdered on August 1, 2003, by undisclosed means. The government still refuses to reveal to his family how Larry was killed while police falsely, repeatedly denied having the disabled American in custody. Terrell Scott was incarcerated 4.5 years in torturous conditions before he finally agreed to sign a plea bargain after learning about two other mentally ill black men in Mississippi who had been illegally interned without trials nearly twice as long as he had been. 

Because this article is censored by terrorists and stalkers, it is repeated in three comments below. Please read them to ensure that you get the full understanding about Terrell Scott, a victimized mentally ill black man in America who deserves and needs help. Thank you.

Scott's own attorney, Phil Lauer, worked against Scott's right to a fair, public, speedy trial (see court documents proving this at Reference No. 1, below). Scott was released from the Pennsylvania prison for two months after signing the plea bargain, then the State rearrested him on new false charges. Scott's arrest occurred at a mental hospital where he was an inpatient, because Judge Zito said that "prison is the best place for mentally ill people like him." 

Scott was again denied any trial on the new charges the State levied against him. This time, Scott was denied even knowing what the new charges were. That is the "liberty and justice for all" that black men receive in the USA, especially those who are mentally ill. Black people with mental illness in the USA are treated like "useless life," except for prison profiteering. Prison profiteers earn more by incarcerating mentally ill people, and the U.S. Justice Department generally refuses to protect the rights of disabled Americans and institutionalized persons, especially African Americans. Below is an update by Terrell Scott's mother. Holly Alston wrote:

My forever tears for my son Free Terrell Scott again have taken over. My heart is so broken. My phone call with Terrell this past Monday was only about five minutes. Terrell sounded robotic, plus a staff member from Graterford State Prison was standing over him. But I received a letter from Terrell today which made me so upset.

Terrell has only been able to take two showers since he's been transferred to Graterford State Prison, he wasn't given any toiletries, he's lost over 20 lbs. They make him wear a "Turtle Suit," which is just a heavy green smock with Velcro tabs on it. The issue with this is that it's too small, and Terrell is getting yelled at because he can't keep it closed. Unfortunately, Terrell is being exposed practically nude. He has no privacy. The camera is on him 24 hours a day, and his cell is infested with mice and spiders.

Terrell wrote, "Mama, that's only the stuff I can tell you; if I told you everything . . . I wouldn't want you to have another heart attack."

I have no words. I can't stop crying knowing that my son continues to be tortured.

*******
Terrell Scott and his family are Claimants in "AIMI vs. USA," an action that Assistance to the Incarcerated Mentally Ill will file in International Court in 2015. Scott is an innocent man who was falsely accused and has been interned for years without trial, since the prosecution simply had no case to present to a court. Now Scott's torture continues, and his family suffers. Holly Alston is in her early 40's, but she had a heart attack this spring from the stress of trying to extricate her gentle, disabled son from ruthless prison investors in Pennsylvania, and Scott's grandfather had heart surgery. The entire family suffers from legal abuse syndrome. 

Prison profiteering is a wicked enterprise, like all human trafficking is; it is America's return to slavery.

6. Pennsylvania sued for details on secret execution cocktail 

Excerpt: The American Civil Liberties Union, along with four newspapers, has filed a lawsuit against the state of Pennsylvania seeking to uncover the source of the drugs used in its lethal injection procedures. As Pennsylvania prepares to execute its first inmate in 15 years, the ACLU, the Guardian, the Philadelphia Inquirer, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, and the Philadelphia City Paper are arguing that the state’s refusal to reveal where it purchases its drugs is illegal. [Knowing Pennsylvania, the execution drugs are probably made of Drano and gasoline.]


Pennsylvania's prison profiteering, child abuse, and judicial corruption are all evidenced in Terrell Scott's case, which will go before the International Court in 2015 in "AIMI vs. USA." Please pray for Scott and his family. If you can offer immediate assistance to Holly Alston, please contact her at the email address: hollyhollabacka@aol.com  

If you are or have a relative who is/was victimized in the legal system (denied psychiatric or drug/alcohol treatment in order to await a crime to excuse incarceration), please join the Claimants to "AIMI vs. USA." If you were robbed, raped, burglarized, or had a relative who was killed by an untreated mentally ill person or drug/alcohol addict, please also join the Claimants.

Terrell Scott Re-Arrested on Indefensible Charges

1.  Terrell Scott's present imprisonment is the most blatant evidence of mentally ill Americans being victimized for being sick that this advocate has ever encountered. Scott was re-arrested on June 5 for failing to keep appointments with his probation office although he was committed to a mental hospital at the time. His crime is apparently that he never learned astral projection - the ability to appear two places simultaneously. Prison profiteers in the Pennsylvania justice system need a psych evaluation. This article was updated June 21, 2014, and again on June 27, 2014.

2.  In 2009, two veteran judges in Pennsylvania courts were charged with corruption after confessing to accepting $2.6m for railroading children into private juvenile facilities. The same thing is happening to the mentally ill and poor people in Pennsylvania, probably because whereas one of the judges was charged and sentenced, nothing at all happened to the prison owners, and this writer does not know about the second judge. Bribing judges is criminal, but the owners of the private prison facilities who conspired with the judges were spared prosecution, as far as I know.

3.  Terrell Scott was arrested off the word of a Caucasian woman who he exposed as being an abusive, negligent mother who enjoyed sex with underage black boys. When he reported her children's abuse to Pennsylvania authorities, Terrell's allegations were thoroughly investigated and found to be true. The children were removed from Crystal's custody. Months later, apparently missing her child support and blaming Terrell, Crystal went to officials and said that Terrell Scott had abused her children. No proof was offered, and Terrell Scott was never allowed to defend himself against the charges in court.

4.  Falsely accusing mentally ill people and black youths of crimes that never happened, then denying trial, is America's new prison profiteering game plan. Victims like Terrell Scott are held indefinitely without trials for years in torturous conditions unless and until they agree to sign false confessions and plea bargain. This happens throughout the United States, and it will continue and worsen unless Americans take a stand against the blatant denial of our constitutional right to a fair, public, speedy trial-by-jury as laid out in the Sixth Amendment.

5.  Shannon Nyamodi, an innocent black youth, age 20, was detained in Franklin County Jail in torturous solitary confinement for most two years, presumably to help the state avoid prosecuting a white youth who may have done the crime for which Nyamodi was arrested. Nyamodi's own attorney, Mike Klinkosum, helped North Carolina avoid taking his case to trial. For some reason, the North Carolina Department of Corrections suddenly transferred Nyamodi away from Franklin County Jail to another correctional facility last month, which finally relieved Nyamodi of torturous solitary confinement. 

6.  The first thing that Nyamodi did upon transfer was to fire his corrupt attorney, who had asked for a continuance rather than taking his client's case to trial despite having charged Nyamodi's family a king's ransom for his defense. Nyamodi (who was also apparently denied mail privileges in Franklin County Jail as well as visitors and telephone calls) mailed the termination letter to Klinkosum and filed a copy with the court. Mysteriously, Nyamodi was transferred right back to Franklin County Jail last week, and Klinkosum was able to extract his signature on a plea bargain the same day. The trauma of being sent back to his torture chamber must have robbed Nyamodi of his last resistance, which was the apparent plan.

7.  This week, a Florida judge actually interrupted court and engaged in a fist fight with a defense attorney who demanded his client's right to a speedy trial. Many judges, prosecutors, and defense attorneys are prison investors, but the Florida defendant's case was apparently assigned to an honest public defender who wanted justice for his client, unlike Mike Klinkosum and Terrell Scott's attorney, Phil Lauer. See a film of the Florida judge vs. public defender below.

8.  Indefinite detention with trials denied ordinarily happens to black youths like Nyamodi or mentally ill Americans like Terrell Scott, because those defendants are most susceptible to intimidation. Mississippi has two mentally ill black men imprisoned and awaiting trials for seven and eight years. Apparently, the Mississippi inmates were not tortured as effectively as Nyamodi and Scott were.

9.  Terrell Scott was beaten so badly while imprisoned that he allegedly lost his hearing in one ear and his eyesight in one eye, and his jaw is misaligned. Terrell was made the cellmate of an HIV-positive inmate whose colostomy bag would overfill with infected urine and blood that spilled onto the floor of their small cell. Terrell had to clean the floor without latex gloves. Terrell was spat upon in his eyes with HIV-infected saliva, then tried to commit suicide because he knew he had been exposed to the HIV virus on top of being indefinitely detained without trial. Terrell was in a coma for a period of time. When Terrell recovered, he was thrown into torturous solitary confinement. 

10.  Scott withstood unbearable torture during five years of incarceration with trial denied after reporting child abuse that was investigated and found to be happening to Crystal's children. When the court calendared a trial date for Scott, either Phil Lauer, who was Scott's attorney, would ask for a continuance or the prosecutor would claim falsely that Scott was in a mental hospital and unavailable for trial. The prosecutor told this lie although Scott was imprisoned and awaiting his opportunity defend himself before a jury of his peers. 

11. No punitive action was taken against either officer of the court for conspiring to prevent due process of law for Terrell Scott, who is now back in prison for the "crime" of missing probation meetings, two while he was still incarcerated and one while he was committed to a mental hospital being treated for PTSD caused by the Pennsylvania injustice system. A hearing on Terrell's probation violation charge is scheduled for June 27.

12. Incredibly, Terrell's family retained yet another corrupt attorney to represent him. Glennis L. Clark, Esq. did not even bother to show up for his client's first hearing, but what he did do was outrageous. Terrell Scott reported to his mother that Clark prepared an Order that Judge Zito signed ordering Terrell into prison for six months as a drug/alcohol offender. Terrell has never used street drugs or alcohol. Neither has he ever failed a drug test or been charged with any violations regarding drunkenness or illegal drugs. Terrell is mentally ill and was at risk for abuse from inmates who are drug addicts and detoxing. 

13.  The U.S. justice system refuses to respect the human rights of mentally disabled people. My brother, Larry Neal, was secretly arrested and murdered in Memphis Shelby County Jail in 2003. His wrongful death was denied any inquest, investigation, and explanation, and his family is denied records about his fatal arrest. This happened although Shelby County Jail had already been sued by the USA for its pattern of abusing inmates' civil rights and placed under the jurisdiction of the United States Department of Justice (USDOJ). When Larry was murdered, the USDOJ helped to cover-up the inmate's death rather than following the proper protocol. Larry's family endured lawyer fraud by The (Johnnie) Cochran Firm, which defrauded the Neals to keep the secret murder out of civil court, and we have been been financially persecuted, intimidated, and censored for nearly eleven years to keep Larry Neal's kidnapping and murder a government secret. 

14.  With the recent unexplained jailhouse death of Eileen DiNino, 55, of Reading, we learned that Pennsylvania is also locking up poor women, white and black, for small fines having to do with truant children. This is a cruel, lawless society where our most vulnerable citizens, people who lack wealth and sick people, are mistreated mercilessly by greedy infidels over the justice system who have no respect for God's law or man's. Debtors prisons are illegal, but that does not stop lawless prison investors. People must resist the tendency to tolerate injustices without resistance until they are themselves abused. Apathy is like a fertilizer for lawlessness.

15.  I numbered the TWENTY-ONE (21) paragraphs in this article to discourage stalkers (also known as "vengeful librarians") who ordinarily ignore my right to freedom of press and remove text and photos from my blog articles and hide my radio broadcasts. Stalkers are working right now to hide or corrupt the url to our Wednesday AIMI radio broadcasts at the signature line beneath this article. Our "Human Rights for Prisoners March" Blogtalkradio show taped on May 19 was offline for weeks, and some friends have complained that they are still not allowed to hear it. The show features two psychologists and an international human rights lawyer discussing ways to reduce America's 67.5 percent recidivism rate. Prison investors do not want recidivism reduced. I am censored to impede advocacy against colossal crimes by prison investors, police departments, and the federal government that happen regularly the United States of America.

16. More urls will be added to this article to prove allegations made herein. See in my censored blog, "Human Rights for Prisoners March," at "Pay Bond to Avoid Indefinite Detention" 
http://humanrightsforprisonersmarch.blogspot.com/2014/05/pay-bond-to-avoid-indefinite-detention.html

17. A Florida judge became enraged when public defender refused to waive his client's right to a speedy trial and invited the attorney into the hall to fight. The judge allegedly beat the attorney's head. As the courtroom filled with the sound of forceful blows, the lawyer could be heard crying, "Alright! Alright!" http://youtu.be/rMWlQmea-I0




18.  Apparently, Terrell Scott was again double-crossed by his own attorney. The entire family is suffering from Legal Abuse Syndrome. Holly's father, who hired Phil Lauer, also hired Glennis L. Clark, the defense attorney who did not show up at Scott's first hearing on the probation violation charge. Scott's grandfather left his sickbed and went to the lawyer's office to fire him but was told Clark was not available. The frustration may have contributed to his need for emergency heart surgery last week. Holly Alston, who is still young, had a heart attack during the two months that Terrell was out of prison because of a continuous onslaught against her family by Pennsylvania officials. 

19.  CPS has apparently joined the persecution campaign and threatens Holly's youngest son, Kai, who is 10. (This will be covered in another article.) Treacherous defense attorneys made it necessary for Scott's family to try to manage his defense themselves although they have little knowledge about legal matters. Holly called the prison and was told that Scott should not have been on the detox floor, and he is now back with the general population. A young man like Scott could be worth millions over the course of his lifetime to prison investors, guilt or innocence notwithstanding. This family desperately needs an attorney who is NOT a prison profiteer, if Pennsylvania has any.

20. This article was updated June 23, 2014. This writer notes CoIntelPro interference and will therefore reproduce this article several times in other blogs and send it to other independent news sources for re-publishing. Mary Neal is as determined to have freedom of press as Holly Alston is to keep her family together in 21st century America, which has allegedly entered a post-racial era that no blacks noticed.

21. June 27, 2014 UPDATE: Terrell Scott's hearing was postponed until Wednesday, July 2, 2014. His probation officer was reportedly unavailable for the hearing due to a family emergency. Scott was unable to be assigned a public defender. His treacherous former attorney, Glennis L Clark, Esq., who did not bother to show up for his client's first probation hearing, has refused to remove his name as the acting attorney. He was fired two weeks ago by Terrell's grandfather, who paid for his legal services. The family assumes Clark remains on record as legal counsel on this case simply to block Scott from having adequate representation. More about Terrell Scott's case is in the article entitled "Mom Dies in PA Debtors Prison"
