CRIMINAL COMPLAINT
DOMESTIC TERRORISM, HATE CRIMES, RELIGIOUSLY MOTIVATED VIOLATIONS OF CIVIL RIGHTS IN THE DISTRICT OF NEW JERSEY
Statement of facts
Since September of 2013 parishioners of several Christian, specifically Catholic churches were victims of acts of domestic terrorism and hate crimes. Perpetrators have decapitated and hacked heads of statutes of Mary, Joseph and Jesus and otherwise desecrated multiple churches in multiple townships in New Jersey.(see attached news article). Aforementioned acts of domestic terrorism were reported in Camden, Malaga and elsewhere. Aforementioned crimes were committed with the clear goal of terrorizing the population. As of now there was no action on part of local and state authorities.
Argument
18 U.S.C. §2331
As used in this chapter – (1) the term “international terrorism” means activities that – (A) involve violent acts or acts dangerous to human life that are a violation of the criminal laws of the United States or of any State, or that would be a criminal violation if committed within the jurisdiction of the United States or of any State; (B) appear to be intended – (i) to intimidate or coerce a civilian population; (ii) to influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion; or (iii) to affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination, or kidnapping; and (C) occur primarily outside the territorial jurisdiction of the United States, or transcend national boundaries in terms of the means by which they are accomplished, the persons they appear intended to intimidate or coerce, or the locale in which their perpetrators operate or seek asylum; (2) the term “national of the United States” has the meaning given such term in section 101(a)(22) of the Immigration and Nationality Act; (3) the term “person” means any individual or entity capable of holding a legal or beneficial interest in property; (4) the term “act of war” means any act occurring in the course of – (A) declared war; (B) armed conflict, whether or not war has been declared, between two or more nations; or (C) armed conflict between military forces of any origin; and (5) the term “domestic terrorism” means activities that – (A) involve acts dangerous to human life that are a violation of the criminal laws of the United States or of any State; (B) appear to be intended – (i) to intimidate or coerce a civilian population; (ii) to influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion; or (iii) to affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination, or kidnapping; and (C) occur primarily within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States.
Aforementioned acts of desecration of Catholic churches and beheading of statutes of Mary, Joseph and Jesus fall within 18USC 2331 (i) as those acts were perpetrated with the clear goal of intimidating Catholics in multiple townships of New Jersey, which are located miles apart and such acts took place starting from September 3, 2013 through January 25, 2014. This amounts to a systematic campaign of intimidation of population and coercion of population into not attending Catholic churches.
Further, considering the fact that these occurrences took place in multiple townships, and the fact that the damage is extensive there is a high likelihood of a RICO enterprise where a number of individuals have colluded in perpetrating such acts of domestic terrorism.
Further, aforementioned acts might also fall under 18 USC §249 Hate Crime act. Here a specific group was targeted: systematic targeting of Christians, specifically, Catholics. While Hate crime act typically involves bodily injury to a person, in the past acts of burning of crosses, swastika and other acts of vandalism involving signs of hate towards specific groups were prosecuted as hate acts.
The state and local government have not acted upon those acts of hate and the US Attorneys’ office for the District of New Jersey is requested to act and prosecute aforementioned acts. While local townships are lacking resources, the U.S. Attorneys’ office has vast personal and financial resources to investigate and prosecute such acts of hate and domestic terrorism.
US Attorneys’ office for the District of New Jersey was in the news for successfully prosecuting theft of millions of dollars in counterfeit credit cards. Mr. Fishman, you should be commended for that success. However, robbing citizens of New Jersey of their dignity and terrorizing them is important too and as a President of Defend Our Freedoms Foundation, I implore you to show the same zeal in prosecuting these acts of hate crimes and terrorism, and restoring the citizens right to live free of fear as well.
Respectfully,
Dr. Orly Taitz, ESQ
President Defend Our Freedom Foundation

Vandals hacked off the hands and heads of religious statues in New Jersey at two Catholic Churches this week.
CBS Local reported:
Police Department, officers were dispatched to the Sacred Heart Church at 922 E Landis Avenue for reported criminal mischief. An investigation revealed that sometime during the night, the suspects had vandalized several religious statues on church property.
The vandals hacked off the head of a statue of the Virgin Mary. In addition, the vandals also chopped a statue of Joseph in half.
A few hours later, officers were dispatched to St. Francis of Assisi Church at 23 W Chestnut Avenue for the same incident. A subsequent investigation revealed statues at this church had been damaged in the same manner as the ones at Sacred Heart.
At the St. Francis of Assisi Church, the vandals hammered in the faces of Jesus, Mary and Joseph on a statue.
“They are not just statues, but pictures and images of people that should be remembered,” parishioner Jose Rodriguez said.
For the faithful, it is an emotional attack.
“I cannot imagine what is going through the mind of a person that would deliberately go deface statues that are dedicated to our savior,” Deacon Richard Sampson of Christ the Good Shepherd said.

Religious Statues Vandalized At 2 Churches In Vineland
VINELAND, NJ (CBS) — Police in Vineland are searching for the suspects who vandalized statues outside two churches overnight.
According to the Vineland Police Department, officers were dispatched to the Sacred Heart Church at 922 E Landis Avenue for reported criminal mischief. An investigation revealed that sometime during the night, the suspects had vandalized several religious statues on church property.
The vandals hacked off the head of a statue of the Virgin Mary. In addition, the vandals also chopped a statue of Joseph in half.

At the St. Francis of Assisi Church, the vandals hammered in the faces of Jesus, Mary and Joseph on a statue.
“They are not just statues, but pictures and images of people that should be remembered,” parishioner Jose Rodriguez said.
For the faithful, it is an emotional attack.
“I cannot imagine what is going through the mind of a person that would deliberately go deface statues that are dedicated to our savior,” Deacon Richard Sampson of Christ the Good Shepherd said.
In September, statues were also vandalized at St. Mary’s in Malaga (See Related Story).
It is not just violent manner in which these statues were attacked, it’s the fact that these parishes are several miles apart that leads Catholics to believe that they are clearly being targeted.
“This is not just someone randomly in a drunken spree, decided to be, a wise guy. This was something that someone decided they wanted to make some kind of a statement, and what that statement is kind of weird and ugly,” Peter Feuerherd of the Diocese of Camden said.
The parishes intend to rebuild and pray.
“It is bad, but all we can do is pray for that person so they can really realize that the way they are going is not right,” Rodriguez said.
Anyone with information is asked to call Vineland Police at 856-691-4111

Dear Dr Orly, do you think they interviewed you to have something “in the can” for the moment that the “Soebarkah-gate” hits the fan?
They seem not to want to “break the story,” but ready to capitalize on it the moment it is common knowledge in the press.

That comment above as for the Megyn Kelly thread so will repost.

I wonder if the perpetrators knew they could face the death penalty for that kind of crime?
January 25th, 2014 @ 8:58 pm
I doubt anybody would get the death penalty for vandalizing statues.
People who have been convicted of charges related to the burning of a cross in somebody’s yard face a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
January 26th, 2014 @ 3:06 am
Well, 10 years in prison and $250, 000 fine is better than nothing
