I don't blame you for perceiving me to be unworthy of a response from you if all you read were my emails and the reports from your officers many of whom view me as either mentally ill, some sort of foreign tied person(profiling by one officer), or the deputies who showed up the other night in response to my death threat and refused to call the officer in Colorado who requested they call him after viewing my phone(a man who wouldn't stop threatening me, or texting, calling me a pedophile, threatening me physically). I'm sure --- everyone had their own explanation of things.... Maybe they had a long night.... I don't understand how it takes 4 hours to respond to a citizen reporting threats against their life. An explanation was all that was needed, none was provided.", "Please be aware that I wish to close my communication channel with you, your department, and all of your officers. I have sent copies of my work that has caused the death threats against me to Mayor Techel and Chief Potter (who has literally taken about a dozen calls with me in the last few days, all of which have been cordial). --- I have relayed to Chief Potter that due to the communication from Captain Crawford which tacitly implied he believes I am mentally ill, and based upon the response of the officers the other night who upon arriving already had animosity towards me, please be aware I am not comfortable with your department.", "On reflection and after conversation with Chief Potter, I have chosen not to pursue recalling you from your post, or Mr. Crawford's post by extension. I have a few simple requests I would like to make, first, I would like to ask that you read the articles I wrote, which are being actively investigated by Special Counsel Mueller, the FBI, and as of today I called 4 (D) members of the intelligence committee and three other congressional offices, all of whom are now reviewing my report. --- I made this move because of your officers... I am providing information to federal investigators, and my posting of segments of this information online has resulted in death threats against me. -- Your officers believe me to be mentally ill, however, if you, or anyone else wishes to review my work, I believe it would be trivial if not comical to infer that I am as Captain Crawford points out \"mentally ill\". If this is the position held by Crawford, and I thereafter provided humiliation to Crawford, an action I now regret since I now question his mental stability, he clearly has many officers within your department who now hold animosity towards me.", "I literally reached out to congressional offices, so that national news media would profile my story, so that I would either have justification to fly in my security guy who was to accompany me to D.C. in the event I was requested to testify, or that I am requested in D.C. and that takes me away from what I view as a very troublesome situation with local law enforcement.", "Please review below two pieces of my work product, one was provided to the FBI, the other is for dissemination by the congressional staffers, so as to make it more digestible. This is not the work of a \"mentally ill\" person as Captain Crawford suggests I am, but, further than that, it is the work of someone who would receive death threats, which I believe your officers believe are imagined or fictitious based upon them asking my mother what medications I take, Crawford's email, ETC. --- I understand what Crawford is...  a competent officer who likely rose to his post by way of methodical discipline, however his inability to assess analytical or abstract information, as would be commensurate of someone of that personality orientation, isn't ideal for this situation. I am investigating federal crimes... as a specialist, without compensation or credit, and thus threats against me, and my location here in Napa, doesn't line up with Crawford's law enforcement history. His dispute with me was a byproduct of the fact that I am a statistical anomaly in a town that is irrelevant to matters of substance such as those of which I investigate. --- I have been told you are a reasonable man by Chief Potter, and as such, I request you read the work I have been conducting:", "Technical sophistication --- medium", "[https://www.truthexam.com/2018/04/breaking\\-top\\-trump\\-staff\\-tied\\-to\\-massive\\-network\\-to\\-scam\\-his\\-own\\-supporters/](https://www.truthexam.com/2018/04/breaking-top-trump-staff-tied-to-massive-network-to-scam-his-own-supporters/)", "Technical sophistication --- high", "[https://www.truthexam.com/2018/04/breaking\\-trump\\-campaign\\-officials\\-financed\\-extensive\\-fake\\-news\\-network\\-launched\\-by\\-manafort\\-allies/](https://www.truthexam.com/2018/04/breaking-trump-campaign-officials-financed-extensive-fake-news-network-launched-by-manafort-allies/)", "I recently purchased a $20,000   Schutzhund   dog to protect myself after physical threats via texts, the calls, the phone and computer interference, ETC. --- Now, I am getting quotes on having my gate modified from manual to automatic so that your officers will have greater difficulty entering my property. They are men with guns, who don't like me, and who's head officer believes me to be mentally ill... In the event I receive more death threats, I am literally not going to be calling 911, because if your officers are of the same orientation as Crawford, they believe they are responding to a mentally ill person making fictitious complaints.", "I am making a few requests of you --- Make every effort to keep your officers off my property. I do not want your people here unless something truly extraordinary happens and I specifically request them. Further, in the event of a \"SWATTING\" call I request that you make every officer in your department aware of the fact I am currently being harassed by digital hackers as part of my investigative contributions and as such the call is likely fictitious. In such a case you are legally obligated to respond, I ask that you have your men proceed with extreme skepticism... I invited your officers to do a security check on my house not because I actually needed one, but because I thought your station perceived me to be some sort of mentally unstable person, which was thereafter confirmed by Crawford's \"resources\" comment. I wanted your men to come into my home with their body cameras on so that they could see everything in my house, I showed them the only two weapons here, a compound bow and a baseball bat in my room, I even specifically lagged one of them in my room showing him a video of my new dog, only because I wanted footage to be available so that you could see -- I am not a threat to myself or others, I am being threatened by aggrieved criminals, something which has somehow been overlooked. This obviously didn't stop one of your officers from questioning my mother about my medication (during a call in which I had requested a security evaluation of my home, voluntarily, because of threats against me, why is my medication relevant to my death threats?) -- which again is suggestive of the fact that you believe my threats to be fictitious.", "In the event that I have to take leave to testify in D.C., or if I am here, and an event occurs which results in harm coming to either of my dogs, or my family, please be aware -- I will not be pleased. All that I have in my life is the aforementioned, and law enforcement does not have a great record with animals, nor do they have a great record of responding to calls where they perceive \"mentally ill\" people to live.", "I truly hope that you review my work product, that you view it as credible, and in the event you don't, I have sent it to Mayor Techel & Chief Potter for their review, so they may convey to you that a mentally ill person could not write such a complicated report, and that a report of such a sensitive nature would produce threats.", "Your officers need to be individually consulted, made aware of the fictitious nature of perception which exists amongst a contingent of your officers, and I would request that you further tell them that I again --- wish to be left alone. --- While I did propose that in the event you didn't reconcile complaints against me, I would recall you, first of all -- That would cause harm to Napa, a city which is for all intensive purposes lovely, and secondly, it's a waste of my time to reconcile local matters when I am working on federal investigations into potential criminal activity committed during the election. Your departments incompetence is endangering my valuable contributions to ongoing federal matters, if I work more -- I receive more threats, if I receive more threats, I have to report them to your officers, who view me as a threat.... This situation is ridiculous, yet, your pride kept you from even responding to my email requesting I speak to you upon your return from SoCal yesterday.", "--- Sir, I am sure you are a perfectly nice man. I asked Chief Potter (who I find to be charming) -- Is Robertson comparable to you (Potter), the answer was yes, and I greatly looking forward to a dialogue with you....", "I was literally crying the other day on the phone to my Editor & Chief, wondering what in the hell had happened to my life, that I took on an assignment(My work which I submit to the FBI/Special Counsel, work which I am not thanked for, not paid to do, and which I only hear the most mild confirmation through back-channels that they have received and reviewed and assessed to be credible... I have put my life in danger to investigate complex technical matters, and yet your department cares little for my life... I, a felon with an illustrious history of misdemeanors, am assisting a government which I have no particular fondness for as a libertarian, and in return for my contributions local law enforcement treats me with less respect than if I were some homeless drug addict... I do this in the time I find spare after managing a large media company with 10+ employees. This is the first thing I have ever done for the country, merely as an act of service, and in return I am made to feel like some second class nuisance.... my life was much easier before I brought this work into it, I did it out of duty, it is amazing that your officers, who's profession revolves around duty - treat me with such disregard.", "I apologize for the way I spoke to Captain Crawford, it was very inappropriate, however, I do not believe that if you were aware of the way Crawford has treated me, in full, you would be satisfied with him, in any way. Further, a review of the myriad incidents in which I have interacted with your officers, all have been unpleasant save for two. I apologize that my work is of such significance that I receive regular threats, on an outgoing basis they will go unreported to your officers.", "This is besides the point: I do not mean this in any way as a threat, I am in fact begging you --- Please do everything you can to reconcile the image falsely placed in your officers of me, please keep them away from my house, and know --- if anything happens at my residence which results in harm to the things I love, there will be no end to the grief which will result, my digital prowess is without parallel. I am an apex predator at what I do, please do not have your officers harass and provoke me any further. --- I am an anomaly in Napa - only here for an interim period while my grandmother is dying, I belong back in D.C., as such, it's understandable why your officers have viewed me incorrectly, however, know that many people are aware of the current situation, many people are included on this email, and the current status of affairs at your department has left me without any way to call for help in the event it's needed.", "Please find members of the media, the council, the mayor, the DOJ, the city, misc. others, the chief, and my team included on this email. Again, I am merely asking that you review my work, thereafter I assure you, you will perceive it as aforementioned, and thereafter I ask that you reconcile the image held of me in your officers, spread by your number two, which has created a situation which isn't making me feel comfortable or safe.", "I wish you all of the best --- I hope to be out of this town, and your list of problems immediately, and I hope that you eventually -- perhaps when my work is presented in the national media that you feel some sense that you need to internally investigate the extremely unprofessional way I have been treated over the last week or so. If you would like confirmation that my work is being investigated by federal investigators, I will happily make my lawyers available to you, should it alleviate you or your officers of false narratives they have conceived about me and spread throughout your department.", "Leave me alone, please.
