2. Give Paul Hemmings His Job Back
Paul Hemmings has been suspended from his job as site manager of St Johns school since late November 2007. He is accused of committing fraud. Paul denies the charges.
We believe the case against Paul to be both unfounded and petty-minded and we believe the official support given to him by the school's governing body, the council and his own union over the last 3 months to have been exceedingly poor.
We request a fair hearing for Paul, with proper representation for him, so that our friend can rightfully return to his place at St Johns where he stands as a dearly valued member of our community.
3. Please let Phillip Cruz come home
Its been two years since his arrest, yet he still sits in the bubble.
Still no hearing.
4. Domestic Violence Victim, to be notified of the offender's Parole Hearing
The current law states that a victim of Domestic Violence, is only notified of the offender's hearing, if requested, and the crime must be a felony.
On February 16, 2006, LFUCG Officer Joshua Cromer arrested country music singer John Michael Montgomery for DUI. After the arrest a fellow officer posted an altered picture with Officer Cromers face on the body of a fan standing with Mr. Montgomery on Cromers myspace.com page.
This launched a chain of events where 6 officers including Cromer were investigated and charged with numerous internal charges, all of the officers EXCEPT Cromer are back working at the LFUCGPD. Before Mr. Montgomery's case went to trial he went and pled the Alford Plea because he knew that there was enough evidence to convict him of DUI.
There have been numerous state laws that have been broken by the LFUCGPD including Officer Cromer being suspended without pay since November 8, 2006. Officer Cromer was also suppose to have a hearing with the LFUCG council within 60 days of being charged in October, which the city failed to meet that deadline. The council hearing is set for February 20, 2007 at 4:30pm. These are only two of many state laws that have been broken.
Please help get this Officer his job back and keeping our streets safe.
6. Police Officer Robert Sorrentino, deny Russell Carroll parole
UPDATE 11/3/08: Russell Carroll's parole hearing has been scheduled for December 2008.
UPDATE, 2/16/2007: Russell Carroll has been denied parole for this year. Thank you all for your continued support and kind words. I am keeping this petition up and active, as his next parole hearing is scheduled for February 2009.
.................................................
On April 10, 1980, NYPD Officer Robert Sorrentino of the 101st Pct. was shot three times while chasing several robbery suspects in Far Rockaway, Queens.
He and his partner had split up to chase the suspects who had also split up. After his partner captured one of the suspects, he heard shots fired and ran to the scene where he found Officer Sorrentino suffering gunshot wounds.
He was transported to a local hospital and, after undergoing more than fifteen hours of surgery, the removal of one of his kidneys, and extensive repairs to his pancreas, the married father of three later died from his wounds on April 24, 1980. The five men were sentenced on 106 counts of felony murder, robbery, and weapons charges. They were all given the maximum sentence, 25 years to life. All but one have since died in prison.
Russell Carroll, who was on parole at the time he committed this crime, is up for parole for the second time in February 2007, and will be eligible for parole every two years after that. My family, still grieving, do not want to see this man go free.
7. Doing he RIGHT thing for our CHILDREN
This is a supplementary petition due to the fact that our hearing officer Ed Lockwood, has made his ruling in opposition of the annexation.
Please help us by signing this petition to show the State board of Education that it needs to go to a vote.
Our kids' future depends on it.
8. Protection for the Eduacation of The Hearing Impaired
For the protection of the students of the CCISD school district enrolled in the hearing impaired program. These students have bee constantly relocated within several districts and have not found a home school. These students have not been afforded the opportunity of an equal education.
James R. Hathcock, born March 5, 1967 is a son, husband, father, family man, good provider, gainfully full time employed, and considered to be a hard working individual... that is, until being raped by a failed judicial system, wrongly convicted of incest and sentenced to spend six years in prison forcing him to become a victim for a crime that he did not, could not, would not, and is not capable of having committed.
He is accused of a crime that never happened. A crime that is physically and humanly impossible for him to have committed.
Rather than justice having been performed on behalf of the victim, Shana, a grave injustice has been done to James Hathcock, his wife, son, family, and his childhood dream career (which he had accomplished) all of which have been made to become victims by a failed judicial system.
After a jury trial lasting 5 days, three (3) of his witnesses were allowed to testify on his behalf, false testimony was given by some of the State witnesses, no DNA evidence, no physical evidence, witnesses and evidence on his behalf were withheld, one state witness has come forward.
In a letter written willingly on October 5, 2004, a state witness has admitted that she knows the victim was lying and that she (state witness) did not like getting up there (witness stand) and talking about s_ _ _ that did not happen.
10. Student Code of Conduct - Fair hearing in regards to the Robert Rubio incident.
My child was given 3 day suspention and then we went to a hearing and he was given 20 days DAEC for hitting another student, who for the entire school year, has been inciting and engaging in bullying, intimidation by name calling, using derogatory statements that finally disrupted the school program to incite violence as the only means to defend himself (the school has done nothing to the other boys, other than telling one boy to go tell the other two to knock it off).
This is not acceptable and needs to be handled in an appropriate fair manner for all concerned. We consider this discrimination and would like a fair hearing with School board, Principal, councelors and students teachers, to come to a fair ruling to all the students involved and put an end to this type of behavior, which these 3 boys have been getting away with for years,.
We think it is unfair for those who are hard of hearing and deaf that WWE do not produce VHS and DVD with closed captions.
WWE fans come in all shapes, sizes and hearing capabilites, so please get something put right for the deaf community.
12. Remove restrictions and tax on firearm noise suppressors
Firearm noise suppressors are used in countries like Finland to reduce noise pollution and to protect the hearing of people and animals. These devices are not weapons, and should not be treated as such. Most suppressors reduce noise levels from a level that would cause hearing damage to a safe level. If a criminal wanted to commit a nefarious act with a firearm, they wouldn't go through the trouble and expense of buying a registered suppressor, when they could build one easily and for very little cost. The waiting period for a legal suppressor is around 3 to 6 months, and there is a $200 transfer tax. Suppressors, often referred to as "silencers", do not make firearms silent, they only make them safer. Also, suppressors reduce recoil, providing a great benefit for those who cannot handle heavy recoil.
In Finland the government encourages the use of suppressors to reduce noise pollution, hearing loss, and the number of hearing aids the government has to buy. Before congress passed a law restricting suppressors, using a suppressed firearm was considered the polite way to shoot.
13. Free Pneumococcal Immunisation
This petition is to get free immunisation for all Australian babies. This disease is life-threatening and children under 2 years of age are at greater risk. This air born bacterial virus has devastating effects, which, include disablement of vision, hearing and developmental delays. Also through Septicaemia they can lose fingers and toes. The vaccine is too expensive for most people in this country - costing at least $144.45 per shot and babies need 3 shots.
My beautiful granddaughter Isabella spent 3 months in Hospital and we are very lucky to have her. She suffered through 9 brain operations and two shunt operations, luckily the second one worked. She is visually impaired and has developmental delays and it all could have been prevented if she had had the vaccine. The whole family network suffers and the ongoing care will continue for years to come. So, please sign my petition and I pray that the Federal Government will listen and provide the vaccine for free. Thank you.
14. No Clemency For Murder by Hill
In May of 1987, Jonny Lee Hill committed a brutal murder in Malvern, Arkansas and was sentneced to life in Prison by a jury of his peers.
In April of 2003, he will be screened by the Post Prison Transfer Board for eligibility for a Clemency Hearing.
15. California's Child & Family Protection Initiative
a) The protection of California's most vulnerable citizens, its children, should be the most important objective of government.
b) Although providing an important public service, current programs designed to protect children often times do more harm than good. Far too many tragedies, including serious physical and emotional injury to children and the unnecessary destruction of families, have occurred in recent years. The system must be reformed to restore fundamental fairness and promote protection of children and preservation of families.
c)California law requires cases where a child has been removed from his or her family due to alleged abuse or neglect to be heard within 15 days in order to bring speedy resolution to the matter and to minimize trauma to the child. However, thousands of children are kept away from their families for months on end by unnecessary government delays, resulting in tremendous costs to parents and taxpayers. In many cases, other family members are willing and able to care for these children, yet the current system does not promote preservation of the family.
d) The right to a jury trial is fundamental in our system of government. However, under existing law, a child can be removed from the care of his or her parents based only on allegations of abuse or neglect without the government having to present evidence justifying removal to a judge and jury.
e)This system, designed by politicians to protect children, instead often results in delay, excessive costs, mistakes, and family break-ups. IT IS IMPORTANT TO PROTECT CHILDREN FROM ABUSE AND NEGLECT, BUT IT IS JUST AS IMPORTANT TO MAKE SURE THAT CHILDREN ARE NOT WRONGFULLY REMOVED FROM THEIR PARENTS IN THE FIRST PLACE.
f) Abuse of the process is cloaked in secrecy because such juvenile proceedings are not open to the public.
g) Recently, several studies, grand jury investigations, and oversight hearings have brought these problems into clear focus. However, our elected representatives have failed to take action.
h) In order to protect the health and well-being of children, the people of the state of California hereby enact the Child and Family Protection Act to establish the right to a jury in juvenile dependency hearings, the right to a public hearing, the right to a speedy resolution and the promotion of family over government-sponsored care whenever possible.
