As a wrongly-accused innocent thrust into court, I found that our cumbersome, insulated and occasionally manipulated legal system does not always help, and sometimes harms. Club members enjoy rules of favoritism while the system thrives due to protectionism and lack of accountability. In brief, this is about what happens when our government fails to serve the people, and when people stop thinking and reasoning, and lose ability to synchronize with reality – my accusers and the judge for example. Overall, their reckless disregard for truth, decency, and the integrity, reputation and importance of our judicial system is simply stunning. That reality fills me with dread.

This is not an easy read or a satisfying story of ultimate vindication. While eye-opening, it remains a somewhat hopeless and dismal telling of injustice, ignorance, cruelty, incompetence and illogic – sobering, cringe-worthy evidence of just how stupid, gullible, evil and even crazy people can be, and how incapable and surreptitious government can be – and how we deserve so much better.

I’m a man who seeks peace and understanding. But when bullied, lied to or about, I will stand firm. This is just such a case. This is a true story of how incompetent government promoted maltreatment, and neglected the innocent. Justice was betrayed by a fundamentally flawed bureaucratic legal process and a charlatan judge presiding over a mismanaged courtroom. Given the experience, it’s fair to say that justice is not only blind, it can also be deaf and dumb as well.

In the beginning, I had no idea evidence would emerge of widespread government failure if not collusion. This case is far-reaching and worse than ever imagined; it reeks of blatant improprieties by many, plus awful neglect by government officials – so necessarily also became a story of people caught in the act.

Time for change. Time to rise up.

Do we tolerate a do-nothing government of disrespect and arrogance or do we demand a culture of honesty, integrity and accountability? I’m doing what I can to reveal the truth and expose wrongdoing but need help. GoFundMe donations will support this advocacy by helping to pay for advertisements in Colorado media to increase public awareness. Any excess will be donated to the Colorado ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union). A full and transparent accounting of funding (mine and donations) will be added to this web site in a separate blog. Thank you for your interest and support. Now together, let’s make our government responsible and actually work on our behalf.

This web site is dedicated to an unfortunate situation that ended-up in an Archuleta County, Colorado courtroom – and ensuing fall-out and revelations. The main participants: my accusers and neighbors *Mitchell Mange and *Patrice Pavis (late of California); Division 1 court Judge Justin Patrick Fay; and me, Colorado native Robert MacDonald.

In civil court I defended against TPO’s (temporary protection orders) filed as a result of brazen, hoax, farcically contrived accusations by notably disturbed neighbors – as contained in cases C0042023C75 and C0042023C76 – that nonetheless caught the attention of a simple little man in robes assigned to hear the case. Pertinent facts cited are of public record. Information presented offers representative highlights; to expose full compromising depth and breadth of exploitive abuses by my ignominious accusers and their enablers would require a book or maybe a week-long trial.

I didn’t just win the bad neighbor lottery, I got dropped into a sea of madness populated by some rather scarily stupid people.  As for my accusers, it’s never acceptable to lie to try to get your way. When people embrace dishonesty, that affects us all; it dilutes human potential and weakens the bond between us.

Thanks to involvement of a brew of disappointing, untrustworthy, incompetent professionals, what a misadventure it has been. From smug courtroom liars to misfit government employees, their behaviours are revolting. Between devious neighbors, bumbling and do-nothing government employees, and an imperious apparatus of the state than can capriciously enforce injustice as justice, I was vilified, ridiculed, derided, denied, dishonoured and betrayed. This is my unapologetic analysis and account. Just so you know, reserve and respect I showed in the courtroom is not present here. Read on and learn why.

Thank you to those who have communicated your own stories and concerns. You’ve offered great yet unsettling confirmation of my impressions. One likened actions of a discordant mix of a few mediocre public servants here as reminiscent of the Wild West. Seems accurate.
