COMPLAINT
Philip Whitsett Was alleged by Debbie Norman and Kelsey Knox to have
been improper and abusing I Sanders. Along with possibly the father
and mother allowing it to go car and leaving alone with he was
14 at the time. To DHS and was reported to seaside detective Steve Barnett
and his report thrown out by Ron Brown in 2011 dispite medical reports of
bleeding and swelling the foster mom explained to dhs was from a bubble bath
and UTI however the foster mom after I Kelsey took reports of my daughter
1
staff infection on her hands along with her odd statements during visits like “I’m
painting the milky” when painting the inside of a dinosaurs legs and to Debbie
she said “ pulls on my butt at night” and DHS let it go and Ron Brown
threw it out as well when I called his office to beg him to allow a investigation he
was the deputy DA at the time. I was told I could be charged with harassment if
I continued to press these issues. My brother Frank Sanders after adoption
went and reported this to DHS and they said they knew and that’s there’s not
enough evidence to take it to court. Which obviously there still is to this day
including Park Whitsetts arrest in 2019 for rape and sex abuse. had no
emotion issues when taken into care and was removed due to homelessness.
She began to have bed wetting, nail biting to the point she got a staff infection
on her thumb which Ms Whitsett refused to take her to her primary care and
once reported to the sheriffs department by myself sheriffs did go out there after
I made my reports on suspected sexual abuse and the staff infection on her
hand which the foster parents refused to treat and DHS refused to do anything
about. The foster mother did take her to the emergency room but not her
primary care switched her primary care doctor. After obtaining records from her
new primary care doctor I discovered that she was bleeding from her general
area it was swollen and had lacerations, the foster mother again reported this to
DHS as that she had a urinary tract infection however the reports at the doctors
office that she took her to showed no he were Ineri tract infection was present,
and the foster mother figured it was the type of soap she was using so she said
she would just try to stop giving her bubble bath instead. This was obviously a
result of reaping my daughter! Ron Brown including Steve Barnett tried
to twist it into I was the one that was abusing my daughter obviously not she
was supervised and the only reason she was removed was because I was
homeless after leaving a domestically violent marriage. And when I was held
illegally for questioning and my daughter who is potty trained I was refused to
let her go to the bathroom and when I told her go to the crisis worker Sharon
Beatty and have her take you to the restroom she did however DHS took her
and said that I abandon her. Obviously did not. Ron Brown refused to
investigate that and refused to investigate my allegations on the Whitsett family
including not only my allegations but Debbie Norman my mother-in-law and my
brother Frank Sanders. I faced false charges and excepted a false plea-bargain
because I was told if I did not take the plea bargain Whitsett‘s would be
adopting my daughter. So I excepted charges that I did not do and did time
which I did not deserve in order to save my daughter from being raped and
molested and abused including being starved by Miss Whitsett and being told
that she was fat giving other kids chocolate milk and cupcakes and giving my
daughter salad and water she was 3 1/2! Ron Brown knew this information and
chose not to do anything and continues to choose to not do anything. He even
went so far as to throw out Steve Burnett support he sent in. Brown brown
chose to allow evidence to be suppressed in my case including a video tape
from the B&B which showed that the child was more than 6 feet ahead of me on
a bike when she was pulled off by a man and I was tackled from behind at 7 1/2
months pregnant. I obviously wasn’t a threat and was supervising a child who
had no parental guardian! When I was taken I wasn’t under arrest nor was there
a warrant I was taken against my will forcefully cuff to a bed had my bodily
fluids extracted without a warrant including blood, noted to be of taken to a
mental facility per police documents but held in a holding tank in Seaside Police
2
Department and not even being booked into the Astoria jail until 14 days after
they had me in their possession. The charge that originally was first was
harassment upon the nurses after they administered drugs I did not consent to
buy injection and refusing me food. Also the drugs altered my mental state yet
Ron Brown use the evidence to twist my case and make me look crazy and
force me to take a plea bargain or risk my daughter continuing to be raped by
the Whitsett family. I’ll show should know at the jail I was rejected medical care
and I had pre-clampsia/hellp I also had E. coli which altered my state of mind,
yet even after it was discovered when it was transferred to Oregon State
Hospital and I was induced seven weeks early. Ron Brown still chose to use
evaluation‘s during that time as evidence in my case even though I was
rejected medical care and I was sad to have behavioral issues including several
seizures I had while the jail staff laughed at me. They also refused to let me
shower and didn’t take my picture until not letting me shower for 2 1/2 weeks
and not turning off the light for 2 1/2 weeks either not allowing me to sleep or
offer me prenatal care. Also at the time I was pregnant by Jeremy Marhon who
was a informant four Ron brown, was abusive to me and also stopped me the
police would not help me in anyway and they said that he was allowed to stock
me because I was carrying his child. Ron Brown knew this and protected him
and let him be above the law even though he was facing his third strike in
California and still to my knowledge has a non-extraditable warrant out and was
facing kidnapping himself of three adults and a loaded shotgun with two shells
and he was a felon. When I began dating him I knew none of this information,
and when I found out this information including that he was a informant trying to
get free of his charges I asked him to have nothing to do with me and he would
not leave me alone including sitting in a parking lot for hours outside my house
stocking and harassing my mother and myself as well as my friends.

The Oregon State Bar has received your complaint regarding Ronald Brown, the Clatsop County
District Attorney. The Client Assistance Office (CAO) is responsible for reviewing concerns regarding
Oregon lawyers. Under Bar Rule of Procedure 2.5 and as resources permit, CAO determines the
manner and extent of review required to decide whether there is sufficient evidence to support a
reasonable belief that misconduct may have occurred warranting a referral to Disciplinary Counsel.
Misconduct means a violation of the rules of professional conduct and applicable statutes that govern
lawyer conduct in Oregon.
You complain about Mr. Brown’s handling of a criminal matter in which you were the defendant and
accepted a plea agreement (though you now deny the allegations), as well as what you perceive as his
failure to take appropriate action regarding concerns you raised about the treatment of your
daughter by her care providers. We conclude that there is no basis to warrant a referral to
Disciplinary Counsel’s Office for further review.
We lack any evidence to support that Mr. Brown pursued charges against you that he knew to be
unsupported by probable cause. In addition, Mr. Brown’s decision not to take certain actions with
respect to your allegations of abuse by your daughter’s foster parents do not implicate our rules. It
appears from the information you provided that Mr. Brown and/or others involved in the matter
determined that they did not have sufficient evidence to support the actions you sought. Such
prosecutorial discretion is not within our authority to review.
Because we find no professional misconduct, we will take no further action on this matter. If you
disagree with this disposition, you may have the matter reviewed by General Counsel, provided we
receive your request for review in writing no later than January 20, 2022. The decision of General
Counsel is final.
Respectfully,
Please note: Your email communication may be subject to public disclosure. Written communications to or from the Oregon State Bar are public
records that, with limited exceptions, must be made available to anyone upon request in accordance with Oregon's public records laws.

We lack any information sufficient to support a belief that Mr. Marquis or Mr. Brown
have violated RPC 3.6(b). To the extent I was able to find any news coverage in your matter, the
information included was within the scope of the exception at RPC 3.6(b) for basic information
regarding your matter.
Mr. Kaino was appointed to represent you in the Clatsop County criminal law matter.
You complain that although Mr. Kaino communicates with you about the matter, he does not
follow your directions concerning your defense.
RPC 1.2(a) requires a lawyer to consult with you about the means for pursuing your
interests. A few decisions are reserved to you alone, such as the decision whether to plead
guilty or to testify. However, Mr. Kaino is expected to exercise his professional judgment
regarding what evidence to pursue and what motions to make. We could not find evidence to
support a belief that Mr. Kaino has failed to consult with you. Your disagreement with his
judgment is not sufficient to support a belief that he has failed to exercise professional
judgment.
If your relationship with Mr. Kaino has completely broken down, or you no longer trust
his representation, you may wish to request that he withdraw from representing you. There
are risks associated with taking this action, and you will should discuss the risks with your
lawyer. If, after discussion, you wish to seek new counsel, you can ask your lawyer to assist.
Because we find no professional misconduct, we will take no further action on this
matter. If you disagree with this disposition, you may have the matter reviewed by General
Counsel, provided we receive your request for review in writing no later than October 1, 2018.
The decision of General Counsel is final.

Hi,
I just received a report of an innocent man in jail being beaten by his guards in Astoria. The DA lied to the jury,
which I personally witnessed myself . Is there any law against such misconduct ? How can the effects of such
misconduct be rapidly reversed to prevent further beatings ?
Sincerely,
Kirk W. Fraser
Clatskanie, OR
Your e - mail was forwarded to me for a response. You would like to know what can be done to get the alleged
.
misconduct of a prosecutor reversed rapidly to stop continuing abuse You also want to know if it is misconduct
for a prosecutor to lie.
The bar cannot give you legal advice . We recommend you call the bar ' s lawyer referral service for help finding a
lawyer who might be able to assist you. You may reach the referral service at 503.684. 3763.
It is misconduct for a prosecutor to lie. You may present your complaint and supporting evidence to the bar at
the address noted below . You may also find a complaint form and the rules that govern lawyer conduct on our
website at www . osbar . org . I hope that this information is helpful.
Sincerely,
6/ 3/ 08 :
Dear Mr , Fraser,
Certified transcripts are preferred. However, audio CD' s are acceptable if in FTR form ( most courts use FTR) and
you can provide time stamps for the relevant statements. Providing just a few examples to support your
complaint should be sufficient . However, disbarment is not my decision to make . Please remember that closing
statements are given wide latitude for prosecutors and defense lawyers to offer opinions and we expect that the
judge or opposing attorney would file complaints if either the prosecutor or the defense lawyer crossed any
lines.

Subject : Re: Emergency : How to get innocent out of jail
Thank you much for your reply . I will submit complaint and evidence as you suggest . I purchased a record of
the trial from Clatsop County which should arrive here in a couple of days . Unfortunately it ' s only available in
audio — they don' t offer written transcripts. My current plan is to analyse every statement to see if it ' s an
imagined scenario or opinion presented without identification as such, to mislead the jury into thinking it ' s fact.
This will require my transcription of a lot of the DA ' s words. I could also record the offending words in audio
format . I can also supply a copy of the entire trial audio in . mp 3 format . Or if necessary I can pay for the
county to send you an official copy . What would be the acceptable forms of evidence ?
Also, the trial covers several days and I only attended the final summary and closing statements where I heard
approximately 1/ 3 imagined scenarios presented as fact, 1/ 3 opinions some presented as fact and some
correctly identified, and 1/ 3 facts from the DA . I don ' t know what is on the other days yet. How many of such
lies do you need for a successful disbarring ? If the final day has a sufficient number, I could work on that day
first to get the complaint started then send other day ' s lies as they are discovered and documented.
Sincerely ,

Dear Mr . Fraser,
I understand that you are trying to be careful in presenting your complaint. However, I do not have enough
information to give you a preliminary opinion, nor do we do that in most cases. I can tell you that our rules
prohibit a lawyer from lying to the court. If you believe that the prosecutor iied to the court you should file a
complaint with our office supported by any relevant evidence you have. The bar will decide whether and how in -
depth to investigate. Complaints must be in writing and mailed by regular mail . Please remember that the bar
does not have jurisdiction over judges. Also, nothing the bar does will have any bearing on the underlying
criminal matter . The defendant will have to consult with an attorney to explore what options may be available.

Here’ s my Misconduct Report on the first day of court, not as an official submission yet, just to get your opinion
on if I' m going in a right direction the Bar would probably decide to investigate or prosecute. Also, if the
complaint is successful, at what point would the innocent be released ? Or would there still be need for an appeal
which I hear takes a year ? Thank you.

The most obvious lies were the DA ' s imagined scenarios and opinions not identified in any way as what if
possibilities to the jury but presented or implied as facts. Of course direct name calling such as when he called
Tom "evil " with only circumstantial evidence are also lies. In addition to lies this report will endeavor to
document improper court procedures where decisions were based on opinions with absence of proof. Note this
report contains comments on time indexed statements which appear to be misconduct, not the entire
statements which may also cover other topics.
9 : 40 : 37 AM - 9 : 42 : 48 AM Judge
9 : 49: 50 AM - 9 : 49 : 53 AM Defense
Objection to cumulative nature of several witnesses on tape and in person repeating ' s statements.
9 : 49 : 56 AM - 9 : 55 : 40 AM Prosecutor
DA simply says he doesn ' t believe the evidence is cumulative ( objection on the number of times of repetition )
with no support . DA says suggestiveness by questioner can be detrimental to accuracy but says that makes it
important to know what was said in each instance.
9 : 55 : 45 AM - 9 : 58 : 09 AM Defense
Reiterates cumulative argument supporting with precedent by Judge Nelson not allowing statement after
statement on what someone said.
9 : 58: 09 AM - 10 : 02 : 38 AM Judge
Misconduct : Judge also does not specify any objective standard for cumulative, just her opinion. Improper court
procedure, not due process.

Dear Mr. Fraser,
Copies of proceedings using FTR should be sufficient for our initial evaluation.
Judge concerns should be presented to the Commission on Judicial Fitness and Disability at PO Box 1130,
Beaverton, OR 97075 - 1130.
Whether lying to the court is a crime is not a question the bar can answer . Maybe a prosecutor in another
county can help you with that one or a lawyer in private practice may be able to help.

Subject : Re : Emergency : How to get innocent out of jail
Thanks for your helpful information. I realise the Bar is somewhat intertwined with the Oregon Revised Statutes
regarding Attorneys and I once believed a law enforcement officer could be prosecuted for failure to uphold the
law . Is a DA lying in court a crime in addition to a Bar rule violation ? I would like to upon finishing my report file
police charges on the DA for both failure to uphold the law and lying in court, in addition to sending it to you.
Also, you mentioned the Bar doesn' t have jurisdiction over judges. Who does and how may I learn more and
contact them ?
Finally, since you wrote in your prior email that FTR CDs are acceptable, does that include copies I made using
the FTR player software or must I spend another $ 60 to get official recordings to send you? Thanks.
Sincerely,
Kirk Fraser

Founding lawyers weren ' t liars. A recent case of Tom Kelly in Astoria ,
OR has been an education on how broken the system is. DA ' s railroad
innocent people to jail all the time. Lawyers need to be rewarded
for pursuing truth , not convictions.
.SolutionOverv /evr
Thomas M. Kelly sits in jail convicted of molesting his granddaughter, a
crime of which he is innocent . Fie has started several home churches over
the years and has never been accused of any such crime before dispite close
home contacts. Why would he molest someone he loves most when he
didn't molest others?
This is the first case I ' m aware of where DNA evidence has been used by a
DA to lie. A few sperm heads found under a cushion which could have
fallen out of his pants 25 years ago were used as recent evidence to convict
him without any DNA from the accuser . Consider alter sperm heads are
dried enough to lose their tails, simply sitting on a cushion will cause them
to move like grains of sand eventually to the underside of a cushion. They
weren' t necessarily ejaculated on that spot .
professional conduct which include not lying . The Bar also lied on the
specific of coaching saying the girl was confused or nervous in a stressful
setting . That isn't good enough when the consequences are moving from
several years in prison to 166 years minimum .

Since the book Actual Innocence and the Innocence Projects it spawned in
various law schools say 25% of people accused in rape cases are proved
innocent by DNA testing and there is no reason to believe cases for which
DNA evidence is not available have any lesser rate of error, that means the
economy is paying for legal infrastructure not needed for the 25% of
prisoners who are actually innocent . So in the long run, an innocence
commission could save taxpayers money and improve the standard of living
by returning the innocently convicted to be freely productive .

Dear Mr . Fraser ,
1) General Counsel's decision was based on all the materials provided by you or Mr. Brown and her letter to you
of September 26 th is her explanation . A copy of your e-mail was forwarded to her .
2) I am not aware that a legislator referred the bar to you . Our first contact with you appears to have been an e-
mail from you dated June 1, 2008 . We treated your e-mail dated June 16 , 2008 as a complaint. I have done a
quick review of your file , but cannot determine what legislator , if any , was involved. However, if you believe that
there is something in our file that may answer your question you may contact the bar ' s public records coordinator
at 503.620. 0222 x 330 to arrange to review the file.

she offers no proof of her contentions. She contends "There is absolutely no evidence to
support your allegation that Mr . Brown coached the [alleged] victim or otherwise knew she was
being untruthful . " By that statement Sylvia E . Stevens demonstrates either deafness or such
complete incompetence as to have no business representing anyone and ought to be disbarred
herself . Mr . Brown made several statements recorded on the trial CD's indicating he recognized
the alleged victim lied at various times but did not ask if she was lying in court. Brown's
coaching was clearly documented which any high school graduate could follow. I suggest Mz.
Stevens be inspected by a competent medical professional for Altzhiemer 's and other gross

mental problems perhaps even major loss of her brain itself. I ' ve heard that autopsies of
drunks sometimes show the brain has shrivelled to the size of a walnut . She obviously doesn't
have much rattling around there.
Mz. Stevens or what's left of her writes my belief is not based on facts. Certianlv
the speculative statements I have presented are of equal weight to Mr . Browns speculations.
Some of Mr. Brown's alleged facts I have proven false with evidence, for example the porn
websites of the girl's parents which are still available online, contradicting Brown's wild claim
that they would have to lie to say there is porn in the home. Also, the fact that the alleged DNA
"evidence " could have been 25 years old , with no DNA from the alleged victim indicates it
wasn't evidence at all, thus Mr. Brown lied to the jury using DNA.
I conclude Mz Stevens is not mentally capable of carefully considering facts. Whether her
fraud is from biological incapacity or political based on the conflict of interest she has as a
paid lawyer receiving funds from Mr. Brown's membership in the Bar and being a fellow lawyer
of Mr. Brown, it is still fraud.

DA Ronald Brown,
While Josh exercised his right to ask me to not use his personal email address (even though one
could argue it isn't personal as it 's published on the web), neither of you have any legal right to ask
me or anyone to not contact you by any means related to your official office and duties. You are
not a private attorney with the rights of private citizens in your office, you are paid by taxpayer 's
money thus you are responsible to taxpayers as long as you remain in your position .
Based on your boss' blog entry http://joshmarquis . blogspot . eom/2006/03/how- rnany -innocent-
victims-is-few. html you have a legal obligation to continue to receive and pay attention to
communications from me until you have realized your misconduct in which you perverted
justice and release Thomas M. Kelly from prison . The only other way for me to stop contacting
you to request you correct your extreme nightmare error is to resign so someone else will take
your responsability in this.
John 10:13 The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling , and careth not for the sheep.
If you can' t recognize every statement you made in the trial were lies, you can view this as sport
fishing and you caught one with excellent skill at convicting without evidence but it 's now time to
take out the hook and throw Thomas M . back because he's completely innocent of all charges .
I realize you aren't completely rational or you wouldn't have said anything calling my paper letters
threats to the press, law enforcement , and others since they weren 't sent to you voluntarily, but
were required by law to be sent to you in order to avoid "ex parte contact" insisted upon by

Re: Ronald Brown ( Kirk W. Fraser )
Dear Mr. Fraser:
I have reviewed all of the material submitted in connection with your complaint
regarding the conduct of Ronald Brown. As we have explained previously, the role of the
Client Assistance Office is to determine whether there is sufficient evidence to form a
'
reasonable belief that a lawyer may have violated the rules and statutes that govern their
conduct so as to warrant further investigation by Disciplinary Counsel’s Office. For the
reasons explained below, 1 agree with the Client Assistance Office’s decision to dismiss your
complaint .
Your complaint is , in essence, that Ronald Brown procured a conviction against
Thomas Kelly by lying to and misleading the jury. Specifically, you claim he misinterpreted
the evidence and engaged in speculation. As evidence, you have submitted a recording of
portions of the trial proceedings ; however, they do not support your contentions .
Mr . Morrill’s letter of June 24, 2008 is an excellent explanation of a prosecutor’s role
and the permissible limits of advocacy in a criminal case. In short , Mr. Brown’s responsibility
was to present jury of the
defendant’s guilt . In so doing, he is entitled to draw all inferences from the evidence that
were consistent with his theory of the case .
There is absolutely no evidence to support your allegation that Mr . Brown coached
the victim or otherwise knew she was not being truthful. You also suggest that Mr. Brown
should have brought out the victim’s propensity for lying. Fie has no ethical obligation to do
so; on the contrary, that would be the obligation of defense counsel if she felt it was
appropriate . In any event , the fact that she has lied about other things is not evidence that
she was not telling the truth in this case.
The only conclusion I can draw from the materials submitted is that Mr . Brown
advocated zealously for a conviction in a case he believed in strongly. Clearly, you believe
every bit as strongly that Mr. Kelly is innocent . Your belief , however, is not based on facts,

but only on your own interpretation of statistics , speculation and personal feelings. That
does not constitute sufficient evidence to warrant further investigation.
After carefully considering the facts presented , I concur in the Client Assistance
Office’s dismissal of your complaint . The Oregon State Bar’s file concerning your complaint
is now closed .

motive before the judge. It was about the judge asking him if he had
talked to Chanels parents lately about something and he added a
Questionable remark and I Quote him > I remember talking to other
victims mothers but can"t remember if I talked to hers . He could and
should have made a clear statement indicating that he wasn't sure but
would follow up on it. To the judge this could of sounded like there was
other victims. He was mixing in other things without cause except to
deceive as with the mentioning of John Harvey which I believe he
didn't"t think you had any knowledge of . " trying to pull the wool over
your eye "s " And sending the judge a clear hidden message. With that
kind of evil projection out of a man in public court in front of others
it was damaging to me. Causing the Judge to make her decision that I was
a predator and a High risk . I say we demand another Motion for early
resolution" freeing me " based on his remarks in the court to Slander and
confuse the truth. By manipulating the Judge with lies and deception.
Remember there was no physical evidence or proof it was Chanels DNA, as
I said ten females sat on that cushion in the last year , I will be
bringing forward to you a witness that believes it was her" female DNA "
on the cushion , or will first talk to you when we get together with you
to review the light house tape, plus. Sincerely Brother Tom

Where the result is absolutely FALSE, the process must therefore be FALSE. There was no child abuse
so the verdict was FALSE therefore the arguments the jury believed were FALSE. Got it? There is no
statement or implication on the wrongness of sex abuse, it simply didn ' t even happen in this case .

Everyone,
Joshua Marquis and his mental homosexual partner Ron Brown are child molesters who are unconvicted
but deserve to have the book thrown at them for their consentual abuses of their own humanity and
ours. That 's more true than all their lies against Thomas M . Kelly , yet they use law enforcement to
empower their lies On my side 1 have the power of Truth since their lies molest the minds of every
child who reads them .
And as you can see they neither admit nor want to correct their lies in reality even though Marky posted
a blog saying convicting an innocent person is his worst nightmare . Since his behavior
in today ' s email has turned his blog into a lie, it ' s reasonable to assume his other blogs, his webpages, his
activities representing the State in Court , Clatsop County on the Justice Commission, and the state as a
VP in the national DA' s club are all lies. When I asked Josh to explain his evil , I didn' t realize it was
-himself.
I strongly suggest bringing in a GOOD person to campaign against Marquis and his office in the next
election and until then getting a new County Administrator who can stand up to Marquis and his lies as
well as being bold to stand up against them yourselves, yet within the law.
Oddly the Bar, a club of their peers, will review Brown's misconduct during the trial but doesn't care
how these guys defile their reputation and the law by lying in public. And if they consider this email
threatening, I can only add continue to cowl and shiver, until you repent. Now run away you wolves in

4rr (V DA A
The following ernail (s) I want added to my complaint to show DA Brown committed other questionable
behavior before the trial, not only during the trial . This supports my request for the Bar to conduct a
thorough investigation beyond this case and the evidence I' ve previously presented , preferably
investigating the entire office .
The email describes DA Brown's mention of a notorious local criminal Harvey in order to cast
aspersions against innocent defendant Tom Kelly . Other misbehavior I heard of was to use hand signals
to the judge suggesting high bail , to avoid being recorded on the court FTR audio system .
Currently 20%-30% of all things done involving decisions made with 90% confidence are done wrong
because of generic human error, based on research reported in Harvard Business Review, June 2001 . In
the justice system human error produces 20%-30% of convicted prisoners who are innocent supported
by the book Actual Innocence and the many law school Innocence Projects it spawned .
I didn' t think that great published error rate was possible in reality until I analyzed this trial in detail .
The trial of Thomas M . Kelly, #06-1238 in Clatsop County had a DA and judge who committed these
errors:
1 ) DA Brown suppressed the evidence of the tape Tom M. Sr . stopped granddaughter from
watching .
2) DA Brown coached before and during the trial . (Easy coaching shown on accused .com. 2 nd
client video)
3) DA Brown used DNA evidence potentially 25 years old to lie to the jury - no " victim " DNA was
found .
4 ) DA Brown knew his alleged victim was a documented liar but didn ' t bother to ask if she was lying in
court.
5) DA Brown convicted Tom without credible evidence but judge Matyas called it " overwhelming
evidence. "
Although I wasn' t there 1 believe it highly unlikely that a person who started several home churches
without prior sex charges would start with his own granddaughter.
DA Brown's boss Joshua Marquis has published magazine articles copied on his website which deny
innocence statistics without reasonable proof - to support aggressively prosecuting cases where
innocence is likely or guilt can't be proved with evidence .
So Brown ' s good old boy network in the DA 's office is biased toward being proud of making mistakes
with people's lives 25% of the time, so proud that they wilfully lie about DNA evidence, coach
the alleged victim to lie, and suppress critical evidence . He' s also sheltered there, unaware of American
culture such as the Napa Auto Parts televised ad campaign " get the good stuff and other televised uses
9/4/2008
Page 2 of 3
such as :
Aug . 15 on the George Lopez show, his wife pulled half the stuff off the kitchen table, got on the
table in a provocative pose and said, " Do you want to argue or come here and get some of this
good stuff ?"
In view of that, how could a DA complain over and over about using "the good stuff to mean sperm ? I
think this may indicate the DA has a personal problem .

Kirk Fraser

Dear Mr Fraser:
,
The Oregon State Bar has received your recent correspondence concerning Susan Reese and
Ron Brown .
The Client Assistance Office (CAO ) is responsible for reviewing concerns regarding Oregon
lawyers. Under Bar Rule of Procedure 2.5, CAO determines whether there is sufficient evidence to
support a reasonable belief that misconduct may have occurred warranting a referral to Disciplinary
Counsel’s Office for further investigation. Misconduct means a violation of the rules of professional
conduct and applicable statutes that govern lawyer conduct in Oregon.
Your concerns about Ms. Reese do not fall within the bar’s jurisdiction . However , if the
Court takes any affirmative action regarding your pleadings, please feel free to contact us.
A lawyer whose conduct falls below the standard of care in the community may be liable to
the client for legal malpractice. If you feel you have a legal malpractice claim against Ms. Reese, you
may want to contact another attorney to explore what remedies are available to you . You or your
new attorney may also want to contact the Professional Liability Fund , PO Box 231600, Tigard, OR
97281-1600. The PLF provides professional liability ( malpractice ) coverage to most attorneys in
private practice in Oregon.
We are unable to provide legal advice or representation and encourage you to contact an

Mr. Morrill,
RE: Update of Misconduct Complaints on DA Ron Brown and Attorney Susan Reese
The Sentencing for the Tom Kelly case is enclosed on the FTR CD. The sentencing date of July
28, 2008 gave plenty of time for the lawyers to both receive copies of evidence of mistrial I sent
to the judge and certainly DA Brown at least received your communication before then too.
There was no change in behavior by DA Brown as the CD demonstrates. This proves he is
incapable of self -correction and is in need of the maximum disciplinary measures the Oregon
State Bar can provide.
DA Brown’s chiding of the defense for not providing an explanation for a few claims he made
was unacceptable considering adequate explanation had been provided him via my complaint
letters. Further, his claims to the press that I had sent threatening letters to himself and the
defense attorney is unacceptable considering I was required to send them by law respecting “non
parte” contact in order to get my letters delivered to the judge. A copy of the article in the Daily
Astorian is enclosed.
Although Attorney Susan Reese’s behavior improved at Sentencing, she still took an attitude of
compliance with the verdict with some statements that could be taken as admission of guilt
instead of keeping the defense position of innocence despite the DA’s success in fooling the jury.
One additional observation I’d like to state on her performance at Closing is she chose a
speculative scenario to explain why DNA appeared on the cushion, that the accused watched
pornographic videos and masturbated there which made the accused appear as a sleaze of the
type capable of committing the alleged acts instead of choosing a scenario as I did in my mistrial
report which put the emission totally outside the basement with sperm carried there by his pants
and migrating under the cushion by repeated sitting on it over the years. Making her client
appear a sleaze was misbehavior which I hope is worthy of discipline.
Sincerely,

GUISE
Strict security in courtroom for sentencing of convicted sex offender after threats
His gray beard was cut short and his hair slicked back when 57-year-old Thomas Michael Kelly
of Astoria entered a Clatsop County Courtroom Monday morning.
He wore a bright yellow jumpsuit with CLATSOP COUNTY INMATE stenciled across the
back. Shackles on his arms and legs forced him to shuffle as he entered Courtroom 100.
Flanked by two brown - uniformed Clatsop County deputies at all times, he stood quietly as
Circuit Court Judge Cindee Matyas listed the penalties she would impose for the crimes of
which he was convicted.
-
Six imposing looking deputies lined the low wall that separated the gallery from the well of the
court. Sheriff Tom Bergin and five others were spread throughout the gallery.
Matyas sentenced Kelly to four consecutive 100-month sentences - more than 33 years in
prison.
-
"There was overwhelming evidence there truly was," Matyas said. " In the face of
Thomas Kelly overwhelming evidence, you deny responsibility. There is some mindset - when you justify
some sort of sexual interaction with children - that's disturbing."
-
A 12 person jury found Kelly guilty of 12 counts each of first-degree sodomy and first- degree sex abuse for ongoing abuse of a girl
between July 2004 and May 2006. The girl is now age 10.
-
Ron Brown, Clatsop County's chief deputy district attorney, sought eight consecutive 100 month terms.
-
Threatening letters
Dozens of close friends and family members of Kelly ’s crowded the courtroom during both his trial and the sentencing. They contacted
numerous media outlets, crying injustice.
And one sent threatening letters to Brown, Clatsop County District Attorney Josh Marquis, Kelly's Portland attorney Susan Reese, and
other people involved in the trial.
HYtemian who sent you-hate-maH is out there, would you like an escort?" asked a county deputy as Reese prepared to leave the
courtroom.
As she departed, she told a reporter, "I would like to say that he's profoundly sorry ," adding that she believed the sentence was
disproportionate to similar cases in other parts of the state.
Strict security
And, by many accounts, there were numerous unusual events in this sentencing.

The Daily Astorian • The North Coast's Newspaper | Astoria man sent to prison for 36 years Page 2 of 3
Bryant Baehr, the trial court administrator, said the Sheriffs Office only asks the court to use metal detector wands to check people
entering the courtrooms four to five times per year, and they did for this hearing.
The victim and her family were brought into the courtroom before other gallery attendees and the press.
Kelly's wife, Lilly, was one of the first of his supporters allowed into the courtroom. She gazed around the room .
She looked to the corner where the victim 's father sat, with tears in his eyes and fists on his lap.
Father unconvinced
Kelly 's family and supporters shot frequent, elongated glances at the the victim and her parents, who sat at the wall in the back comer of
the gallery, across the court from the judge.
"The whole trial, in my opinion, was a 25-eent Vaudeville act," said Richard Kelly, Kelly's father. He rocked back and forth in his seat
as Matyas announced his son's sentences, staring for nearly 10 minutes at the family of the victim .
Kelly's family spoke to the court with emotional voices. Some declaimed Kelly's conviction, while others spoke of his innocence.
"1 just want to say that you 'll never find a better son. Never," said his mother, Gloria Kelly.
Supporting his body against the rail of the courtroom , the victim 's father spoke tearfully to the defendant in a courtroom filled with
dozens of Kelly's supporters.
"My family is mined," he said. " We're never going to get over this."
Kelly did not divert his eyes from the victim’s father while he spoke. When the 10-year-old victim stood to address the court, Kelly
leaned back in his chair. " I feel bad for him , but I can never forgive him either," the youngster said.
When he spoke the court, Kelly did not express any regret for the crimes he was convicted of, but told the victim and her father that he
loves them . Kelly made a joke, and before he sat down, burst into song with his wife and daughter.
"To know, know you is to love, love, love you. Just to see you smile..." Kelly sang, breaking off the Phil Spector song in mid-sentence.
"... it makes my life worthwhile," his wife, Lilly, and daughter, Aime, continued.
Appeal planned
Many of Kelly 's supporters still believe in his innocence, and think that his sentencing is not the end of the road.
"The bottom line is we will pursue an appeals process and we believe in my brother's innocence," said Kelly's sister, Kathy
Zimmerman, of Portland.
During the sentencing, Judge Matyas said the evidence against Kelly was overwhelming.
" I can 't say that the jury 's finding was disproportionate to the evidence," she said.
After Kelly was removed, the victim and her family left the courtroom first, escorted by Clatsop County deputies. Kelly's family and
supporters shuffled out of the court room , lingering in the parking lot.
At 10:30 a.m., a Clatsop County deputy asked the group to leave the courthouse parking lot, sayingThey were intimidating.
Brown said he was proud to be a part of the prosecution and praised the Clatsop County Sheriffs Office after the hearing. He said the
investigators did a good job of seizing a chair which had Kelly's DNA on it, which was a key piece of evidence.
"It's nice to tell the victim (the conviction ) doesn't all ride on them ," Brown said. "He got what he deserved.
"1 do feel sorry for his family . In big, significant cases, people refuse to look at the evidence objectively."

Mr . Morrill ,
If a DA lying is a crime then Astoria DA boss Joshua Marquis is a mob boss of lying with published
articles against innocence (the thought that some people targeted by police are actually innocent) with
hands in many areas, local, state, and national . The judge used to work for Marquis. Here's a link to
Marquis' websites http://coastda .com/
,
If you can print this and add it to my complaint , great ! If not , let me know to send a paper copy .

Judge Matyas:
RE: Friend of Court Brief; Request For Mistrial & Acquittal or Reduced Sentence On State V. Thomas M. Kelly, Case 06-1238
According to former Clatsop County DA Stephen Gerttula, Thomas M. Kelly’s best chance is if starts confessing she was
lying and Tom’s attorney picks it up to justify a trial His second best chance is if Tom starts claiming incompetence of council for his
Appeal. So it occurs to me that one or both of the following changes improving my friend of the court brief may be appropriate.
1) If it is only acceptable to make a request for mistrial or reduced sentence based on Incompetence Of Council, I am submitting
a report on this case tailored to blame Tom’s attorney Susan Reese.
2) If the Judge is unwilling to make the decision herself, I suggest that I be authorized to present this letter and report to the jury
to see if any members are willing to change their votes on this case given the enclosed facts they weren’t told. To make this
possible, I further ask for the Jury Clerk to be authorized to provide the correct list of Juror’s addresses to mail to.
A strong motive for Annie Reeves to use long-term subtle coaching and programming of by simple questions has come to my
attention. Apparently the Thomas M. Kelly’s successfully sought to have Annie fired from a job based on information on one of
Annie’s websites. The website is now inaccessible by the public but content was copied. MySpace content included Annie’s
statement of desire to shoot Thomas M. Kelly. This death threat should have been brought up by defense council to explain the
strength of Annie’s vital motive to use as a weapon to attack Thomas M. Kelly.
Sometimes I visualize myself dropping to one knee and sighting in the balding head of the child rapist that recently fucked up
our lives as we knew it! And to make matters worse a local judge gave the pedophile his bail money back!! How disgusting
that there is no accountability anymore... how sad judges no longer administer justice. And people have the nerve to wonder
why relatively sane people just snap one day and take matters into their own hands. Funny thing is if I blew his fucking head
off you bet the damn judge wouldn’t give me my bail money back to pay my lawyer. ...
The defense council’s attitude during the trial and especially her closing statement seemed to be addressing some jury she imagined
was present other than average Americans who had seen countless episodes of many police and court shows on TV from the early
days of The FBI and Ironsides to more recently past McCloud and Walker Texas Ranger to present day Cops and the recently renamed
Court TV network which frequently emphasize the need for motive, means, and opportunity to prove a case. When she said “This
isn’t about motives,” she appeared to be addressing people who didn’t exist.
If I had to characterize Susan Reese, I would say she acted like a little girl playing at serving tea against a skilled weasel doing the
State’s most dirty work of suppressing evidence, creating the most degenerate scenarios his mind could imagine and aggressively
selling them to fool the jury into marking up another win for his modem day un-American Activities hunt instead of caring for truth.
During her closing Susan took water from her container exactly the same time as the DA implying perhaps she was unconsciously or
intentionally acting in concert with the DA by making frivolous acquittal requests to appear to be defending Tom while expressing a
submissive defense to insure the DA’s victory.
Susan Reese was so incompetent at proving Mr. Kelly’s innocence that continued support of her failures may endanger the judge to a
review by her superiors at the Commission on Judicial Fitness and Disability at PO Box 1130, Beaverton, OR 97075-1130.
To do a better job than the jury informed by opposing attorneys, please first educate yourself in false sexual accusation topics by
watching the first four continuing legal education videos at http://wvvw.accused.coin /library / mcle.vids. html and the first for clients
at http:// www.acciised.com / library /clientvids. htrgil. Then review the trial with the attached report to see how the facts fit the truth .
If you do not find enough support to acquit, I ask that you minimize the sentence to concurrent and convert it to probation on the basis
that Mr. Kelly has been convicted of molesting his granddaughter without previous accusation from members of home churches he
started over the years which I attended since 1980 in Astoria, Clatskanie, Knappa, and Rainier until June 2008 and he won’t likely see
his granddaughter again so has no opportunity and he will be more benefit to society employed than costing society as a prisoner.
I hope I give you a reasonable doubt about the verdict. Please show Tom Kelly’s family, friends, and the public you care about truth.
Sincerely,
Kirk W. Fraser

Statement of reasonable doubt:-Sinee the DA’s very emphatie-elaim that they’d have to lie to say
provably a lie by the DA, it is reasonable to assume the DA used other lies to support his case.
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney should have rebutted the DA’s wild and emphatic claim since ’s access to
pornography may have educated her in male anatomy and sexual relations with major details not provided by Thomas M. Kelly at any
time or by any means.
3) Council failed to ask if she was lying about what Tom did.
Kelly was evaluated by experts as telling huge whopper lies and wasn’t asked if she was doing it on the stand.
May 22, 2008 4:22:19 PM Psych. Christine Arthur - She told the whoppers, lies no one could believe and it went on and on.
The absence of asking if she was lying now on the stand reflects badly on the defense and both lawyers’ pursuit of the truth.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Is it possible that might have confessed she made the whole thing up if she were simply and
directly asked? Without Anne present?
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney certainly should have asked if was lying since she was so well documented
as a liar and if she wouldn’t admit it on the stand the question might have pricked her conscious enough to consider telling the truth
now.
4) Council failed to explain the motives as to why a child would lie so profoundly.
Kelly fits the classic profile of a child who will do anything to make her second home work.
A System Out of Balance video at http:// www .accused .eom / l ibrary /cl ient. vids. htm 1 33:35 into recording
“ A long campaign of subconscious programming is more effective than overt brainwashing. It destroys the bond between the ex-
spouse and child.”
This divorce scenario sounds like it describes the tug of war relationship between Tom and Annie as partial parents to the child.
Annie succeeded in destroying ’s love for Tom enough so she changed from a past testimony that she loved him to saying on
the witness stand that she didn’t love him.
A System Out of Balance video at http:// www .accused .com / l ibrary/ client . vids. html 34:00 into recording
“ A child who has a basic psychological bond with one parent that is stronger than that with the hated parent will do anything to
maintain that bond between the loved parent and the child. Remember the child feels they were once abandoned by the hated parent
when the divorce occurred. The child does not want to be abandoned a second time by taking sides against the loved parent. They
will do anything to maintain that bond with the loved parent. One of the ways this is done is by making complaints against the hated
parent. The child then gathers support from the loved parent. The child is fearful of expressing love for the hated parent for fear that
it will displease the loved parent. The complaints start out as minor complaints but when the child custody battle becomes ferocious
and the small complaints escalate into accusations of child abuse.”
was in this scenario more than any proposed by the DA. There was an unwritten custody battle between grandpa Tom who
loved and her new step-mom who she saw every day. The mom fine-tuned her psychological warfare as attacked her
dad Tom Jr. with false accusations of hitting her with a stick to attacking her grandpa with false accusations of sex abuse.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Could the charges be just plain wrong? The motives for lying seem very strong.
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney should have made the jury aware of these psychological facts so the jury could
understand a more natural idea of what was happening than the DA’s depraved sex based speculations.
5) Council failed to explain to the jury the extent of coaching that went on pre-trial and failed to expose it when the DA
did it right in the courtroom.
Kelly was coached pre-trial, and on the witness stand by the DA proving her susceptibility to coaching.
Proof of coaching the girl is available by comparing the pre-trial documentation with her trail testimony .
Interview between Det. Kristen Hanthom and Elaine Kelly on June 1 2006 -- Date of Tom's arrest.
T
Concerning 's description of Tom's penis.
HANTHORN: I can give you her exact words; She said , "The balls are gushy and the middle is hard and the top is soft . "
ELAINE: You know what? Right there, He can't get an erection. He's been humm ,
He's not been able to get an erection for a good year or so.
HANTHORN: So you guys have sexual relations then?
ELAiNE: Yes , He's not been abie to gei an erection.
In the trial has changed her testimony from hard in Hoover’s initial report to say it was soft (May 21, 2008 3:38:24). One
instance of lying by coaching means there could be others. said she lies to not get in trouble (3:51:10). She talked because her
mom was being nice (4:12:31). Was she coached by all interviewers being nice?
claimed on the stand her alleged abuse only happened 2 or 3 times over the whole time with grandparents ( May 21, 2008
3:42:07-40). That means most of the alleged counts are absolutely speculative lies which should be thrown out. Later the DA was
able to get her to say more than 20 times (4:39:35). Is that easy to coach? That credibility would argue the whole case with all
charges should be thrown out.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Do the few child molesters who start late in life have Erectile Dysfunction AND still have sexual
relations with a wife?
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney should have explained to the jury how often coaching happened pre-trial and
objected, challenged, exposed or otherwise called attention to the DA’s coaching right in the courtroom. Council should also have had
an answer to the statement of reasonable doubt above to show how unlikely the prosecution’s case is.
6) Council failed to emphasize the abuse in her mother’s care as a cause for the trouble which she created in her dad’s care.
Kelly was abused in her biological mother’s custody before in custody of dad and visitations to her grandparents.
May 22, 2008 4:20:29 PM Psych. Christine Arthur - Possible abuse & violence brackets birth to 3.5
Statement of reasonable doubt: if was violently abused from birth to 3.5, is it likely traumatic reactions could include false
accusations about both parents and grandparents?
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney should have made it clear in the jury’s mind how ’s abuse preceded the
many traumatic reactions and counter reactions by drug prescriptions with their side effects.
7 ) Council failed to tell the jury the charges are so unlikely that random guessing would be more accurate.
Tom Kelly was voted guilty on charges that have a 60% false accusation rate, worse than random guessing.
A System Out of Balance video at http:// www .accused .com / iibrary / dient. vidsJitml 01:00 into recording
Statement of reasonable doubt: If this modem witch hunt atmosphere produces accusations at a rate weighted worse than random
guessing, could it be that Tom Kelly is completely innocent?
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney should have both known and informed the jury of the 60% false accusation
statistic. Opposing council may have argued that still leaves a 40% possibility of accuracy but reasonable jurors would realize the
preponderance of the statistic means they should require better evidence from the DA than affirming speculations as facts .
8) Council failed to object to the multiple counts being charged by coaching .
Tom Kelly was prosecuted with increased charge counts due to coaching of the accusing child.
Charge counts were calculated based on the statement of counting on all her fingers and toes spread over time by the color of
houses she lived in at the time of alleged abuses. This pre-trial event was mirrored during the trial. As supported in item 4) the child
was coached by the DA on the witness stand to move her count of occurrences up from 2 - 3 to over 20. According to Tom
she also has said he does it all the time. Did the DA also coach her like that pre-trial?
Statement of reasonable doubt: Should such inconsistent testimony ranging from about once a year to once a month to unceasingly
decide how many years a person’s life is wasted in prison? Obviously 2 of the statements are her lies, could all three be lies?
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney should have objected asking for at least the smallest charge count or none instead
of letting the other alternatives be pressed.
9) Councii failed to make proper objections and presentations at trial and closing statement.
Defense attorney Susan Reese did not object to many objectionable statements and actions by the prosecution, some of which are
noted in the accompanying Preliminary Misconduct Report for DA Brown. Her closing statement was so weak, parts of it were barely
audible. Tom Kelly states, “There are at least three boxes of information of the defense that were not brought up in trial for basically
the defense attorney stayed with the mental condition of Kelly and Annie Reeves both their past.” She said it was not about
motives when motives are a key to understanding why the initial abuse charge was made and why lying continued for 2 years to the
witness stand. See section 3) and 14).
Time was spent at trial start to redact people praising on tape which was a part of the pre-trial coaxing thatmay have
embellished some reported events including the charge counts.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Had the defense attorney acted to more aggressively object at the DA’s conjectures, lies, coaching, and
any other errors, could the minds of the jurors balanced both attorney’s aggression and seen through it to a more accurate picture of
the trial instead of simply believing the more aggressive attorney? Might they have changed their verdict had all the evidence
collected been presented?
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney missed many opportunities to object to the DA which let the Jury believe she
agreed to or at least acquiesced to his statements.
10) Council failed to keep the moral high ground in her closing explanation of the sperm evidence. —
Tom Kelly had sperm heads which could have been 25 years old used as evidence within the shorter trial time window.
The sperm found on the cushions were not fresh as their tails were gone and could have been up to 25 years old, much longer than
has been alive. It’s possible these were deposited by non-sexual activity such as nocturnal emission and carried there in Tom’s
pants. He may have had sexual activity with his wife there. Whatever the source, after drying they are like grains of sand which may
fall on a cushion which eventually bounce under the cushion with repeated sitting and standing over time. There is no evidence the
sperm were deposited during ’s presence in the house let alone in any direct encounter with her.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Since there is no proof Tom’s sperm were deposited in the manner alleged by the DA, is it actually
evidence of a crime or the first case I’ve heard of where a DA uses DNA to lie to a jury?
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney painted a vulgar image of Tom masturbating in front of a collection of videos in
the basement as an alternative theory to the DA’s sperm deposit scenario which did not adequately separate Tom from the DA’s lies in
the jury and audience’s minds. Instead Council should have not succumbed to the DA’s level of imagination and instead kept a higher
level of behavior in the mind of the jury.
11) Council failed to make it clear Tom was not motivated by perverted sexual desires.
Tom Kelly had love with no intent of arousing or gratifying the lust or passions or sexual desires of himself or .
Loving grandparents had removed from her mother’s abuse. Further expressions of love led to desire to rest on Tom ’s
breast as disciple John rested on Jesus’ breast, out of love, not for sex. That love helped transition her from the abusive home she was
in which made her be diagnosed with many disorders, to a better life where psychoactive drugs weren’t needed.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Is it possible climbed up on her grandfather to rest there as an expression of love, much like a
pet will climb on its loving provider, instead of as an act of sexual perversion?
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney should have explained how normal and loving Tom is having a wife to satisfy him
sexually and no need or desire for anything like the DA’s speculative perversions.
12) Council failed to object or find other means to stop the DA’s many speculations and lies.
Tom Kelly was prosecuted with speculation and outright lies which are stated illegal by the Oregon Bar.
Although the Oregon State Bar declares lies as illegal behavior by a trial lawyer, the Bar being asked twice by email would not specify
what lies they would prosecute as distinct from normal trial behavior. The DA’s statements documented in the enclosed Preliminary
Misconduct Report are candidate lies.
Statement of reasonable doubt: When a person’s future freedom is on the line, should even the appearance of lying be an accepted
normal practice to convince a jury? If jury members vote influenced by a lie, isn’t the verdict also a lie?
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney should have strenuously objected to many of the DA’s statements but rarely
objected to any.
13) Council failed to even mention Tom Sr.’s years of home church activity without incident or accusation of sexual crimes.
Tom Kelly had no prior sexual molestation accusations in over 28 years of church starting.
Elected DA Josh Marquis admitted that Tom Kelly had no priors. Tom was in many people’s homes while starting churches in
Astoria, Clatskanie, Rainier, and Knappa so he had more opportunity than a shut-in, recluse, or hermit yet he didn’t abuse the
hospitality.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Is it reasonable to think a person who kept himself sexually pure over years of church founding would
betray a member of his own family whom he loved enough to help save from abuse?
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney received prolific writings on Christian topics from Tom mingled with his court
related observations and didn’t even think to ask about the spiritual side of his life and history as it related to this case.
14) Council failed to objected to the DA’s unprofessional behavior of accusing before proving.
Tom Kelly did not receive the due process of being presumed innocent until proven guilty.
The legal processing system is broken since it allows DA’s to wildly accuse citizens in their opening statement before proving
anything and their peers at the local Bar support it. A much more civilized approach would be to say, “the state will work to prove
beyond a reasonable doubt that” ... (list of alleged facts) instead of pretending the accusations immediately have standing as fact.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Since the DA stretched the presumption of innocence rule in his opening statement, it is reasonable to
assume he also stretches the law in other areas. Could enough stretching of the law frame a false verdict?
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney should have objected to the DA’s unprofessional behavior of accusing before
proving:
15) Council failed to explain motive, means, and opportunity supporting false charges.
Kelly has a stepmother who had a vicarious need to punish someone for her sex abuse and a financial motive.
Motives for Annie Reeves to lie include: to stabilize relation with Tom Jr., vicarious punishment on her childhood abuser,
punishment to senior Kellys for not babysitting her own kids when having back pain, and future civil suit money. The intent for a
civil lawsuit against the defendant’s wife Lily has received a warning of since the trial from a person conversant with both sides.
Tommy tried to pawn children off to Tom and Lily as Annie threatened to leave. With this fabrication, realizes she can get
Annie's approval, that she did not have before. States Annie is her best friend now.
Statement of reasonable doubt: The keys to legal proof seem to be motive, means, and opportunity. Annie had motives. Her means
was subtle coaching of who had greater motives based on classic behavior to maintain a friendly loving parent relationship in
her life, and because Annie and live together Annie had ample opportunity. With all three motive, means, and opportunity
present, we have a legal proof Annie Reeves filed false charges against Tom Kelly.
Statement of incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney should have explained the motive, means, and opportunity providing a legal proof
Annie Reeves filed false charges.
16 ) Council failed to tell jury about the sack- up mother Annie’s lying which could contribute to encouraging ’s lies.
Kelly has a stepmother who is capable of lying when it suits her purpose.
Pretrial information shows Annie invented testimony by Tom Jr.
“she reads a portion of the DA’s report of slanderous lies made by Annie Reaves and Thomas A Kelly Which Thomas A Kelly denies,
even saying He didn't make theses statements when interviewed by investigating detectives on the day of first complaint.”
(email from Tom Sr. to lawyer on 17 Aug 2006)
Statement of reasonable doubt: If Annie has lied about the testimony of her apparent spouse, she is capable of lying. Could she be
lying about the whole thing? Was she coached into believability by the DA as easily as ?
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney should have laid this lie of Annie’s out for everyone to see.
17) Council failed to mention how Tom A. Jr’s disrespect for authority may lead to his cooperation against his dad in this
case.
Kelly has a dad who exhibits a classic preacher’s kid disrespect for authority by having kids w/o marriage.
Although Tom Sr. was not an ordained pastor, he started several home churches over the years. Tom Jr. was aware of his dad’s faith
enough to call him “an old Jew” in my presence. Sadly Tom Jr. had a preacher’s kid’s disrespect for authority by having his kids
without marriage.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Is it reasonable to assume someone with proven disrespect for authority would obey the law in this
matter where his father stands accused? Could he resent the fact his parents saddled him with his kids to avoid abuse?
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney should have exposed his son’s disrespect for authority to the jury beyond simply
not wanting his children.
18) Council failed to adequately explain to the jury how ’s sexual knowledge came from pornography and not Tom Sr.
Kelly had transference of sexual images from video tape to alleged sexual behavior of granddad.
A pom tape collected by police then returned (see item 22) has video images which portray the very things accuses her
granddad of doing to her. The brief exposure to that tape before Tom found out and stopped her from watching it may explain most of
her intimate descriptions of Tom’s anatomy and behavior. She learned from it which provided food for her imagination to develop
more accurate lies.
Statement of reasonable doubt: If saw part of a pom tape in her grandpa’s house, could she associate that material with her
grandpa especially when he showed up-to stop her watching?
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney should have expressed greater emphasis on the ability of to transfer pom
fantasy onto the reality of her grandpa’s shocking interruption to her viewing.
19) Council failed to explain or demonstrate how easy it is to create false memories in .
Kelly had false memories created by suggestions and expectations of interviewers from Annie to police to DA.
According to Making Memories video at http:// www .accused .com / library /ciient . vidsJitml it is very easy to get completely different
reactions by simply asking a child the same question twice. Constantly asking the witness even non -leading questions by Annie,
Police, and DA would have produced a spectrum of responses-as it did on the witness stand covered in item 7). Subtle key words
- - -
indicated which false response was desired. And in a friendly environment would even create new lies integrating material
from various sources to not get in trouble. Annie could have simply asked a few key questions daily over two years of pre-
trial work to keep the lie active and in memory .
Statement of reasonable doubt: Creating false memories in young children is so easy, repeating a question will do it. We hope
education reduces this gullibility as they get older. Is it possible most words against Tom by were implanted not by rehearsing
a script but by asking questions repeatedly with subconscious cues such as strengthening or withdrawing love showing the desired
response?
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney should have followed the DA’s example of coaching the witness by doing some of
her own to demonstrate to the jury how easy it was to mislead the witness into lying for approval .
20) Council failed to mention the love of ’s grandpa as instrumental in working toward the cure from many
psychological illnesses.
Kelly was diagnosed about age three with autism, spectrum disorder, aspergers disease, post traumatic stress disorder,
oppositional defiance syndrome, and possible reactionary disorder. She heard voices in her head seeing colors in her brain.
It isn’t known if these disorders were from just abuse, a reaction to the cocktail of psychoactive drugs she was prescribed, or a
combination. We do know the from about 3.5 on to age 10 she seems to have improved, with the exception of her falsehoods about
Tom which can be explained by item 3) above. It seems Tom & Lily helped extract from a psychologically harmful
environment and helped love her back to near normal but the step mother has been using her against Tom.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Could Kelly still be experiencing some residual effects or flashbacks due to her earlier years on
drugs? Did she develop a pattern of unrestrained lying back then which carries forward to today? Could that have led to a false
conviction?
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney should have explained to the jury how his role was crucial or at least significant in
helping to both escape from prior abuse and supplying love needed to move on from disruptive psychological patterns to
normal behavior.
21 ) Council failed to enter a motion to delay the trial until the judge with experience in the case returned from vacation.
Court had different pre-trial and trial judges making trial judge less informed and less likely to accept motions to acquit.
Judge Matias. Who was assigned to the trial 2 wks before the court date, [... ]
Judge Brownhill who listened to over 2 years of pretrial testimony, conveniently took a vacation during the trial.
(statement of Kathy A Zimmerman, June 12, 2008)
Statement of reasonable doubt: If a judge has heard everything for 2 years, might there be more response to a motion to acquit than
from one who has only 2 weeks experience with the case?
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney should have at least discussed the options with her client.
22) Council failed to reject jurors that had prior knowledge of the parties: defense client or the prosecution DA and clients.
Court accepted jurors with conflict of interest who stated it wouldn’t affect their decision - such are often rejected.
Every time I’ve been interviewed for jury duty at every level city, state, and federal, my small experience of being run into from
behind by a car while I was on my bicycle which resulted in temporary unconsciousness but no trial, has been used as a reason to
release me despite my statement that it wouldn’t affect my decision. In my personality, the prejudices of prior meetings with people
would cany' more weight than an unrelated accident. Thus in my opinion the court did a disservice to the trial by accepting jurors
such as John Mattingly, who attends Catholic church with DA Ron Brown. Another had a past association with a Kelly.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Consider a past association may have parted on good terms or bad - regardless of protestations that it
wouldn’t affect their decision, is there reasonable doubt that it might in some circumstances? Perhaps commitment to not letting prior
knowledge influence a verdict may cause the juror to take a more jaded view of their past associate and judge more harshly than a
truly unknown juror.
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney should have rejected several jurors on the basis of prior knowledge of the parties
23) Council failed to find a way around the State’s suppression of evidence, which could have simply been done by purchasing
a new copy of the porn tape.
State suppressed evidence by returning pom tape which had everything accused Tom of doing to her.
“The police took two pom tapes during a search of our home. They also took 27 VHS tapes which contained no pom and 8mm home
videos which contained no pom. Before the trial these tapes were returned to the defense. They were picked up at the Clatsop County
Sheriffs Department by my wife Lily Kelly. When we went through the tapes we notices that they had returned one of the two pom
tapes. Which we thought was odd. On the pom tape they returned was every thing Kelly said I did to her. My lawyer told us
-because this tape had left the custody of the State it couldn be
't used as a defense of why knew these things. We feel it was
given back on purpose to keep it out of evidence in the trial.” (From Tom’s written defense statement)
Statement of reasonable doubt: The verdict may have been changed by showing the suppressed pom tape to the jury.
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney ignored key evidence because it was returned by the state instead of finding a legal
means of introducing it. Looking for the publisher / distributor might have produced a new copy and if not, searching for another
copy from a source of used tapes should have produced a copy that was not “tainted” with the possibility of post return editing, and
she should have found a means of introducing that “clean” copy into trial evidence. Considering the importance of this evidence, the
failure indicates extreme incompetence.
24) Council failed to obtain a change of venue upon Tom ’s request.
“I am asking you again Susan for a change of venue. I realize you might feel comfortable dealing with them ,
but it will cost me my life in so doing, for they are.” (email from Tom to his attorney Tue, 22 May 2007 17:05:32)
Statement of reasonable doubt: The verdict may have been completely different in another county.
Statement of incompetent Council: Tom's attorney should have obeyed her client’s important request.
25) Council failed to detect the need for a change of DA and do the work to file for it
Elected DA Joshua Marquis has made public statements, magazine articles, and website entries against Actual Innocence statistics
proving 20%-30% of all people in prison are actually innocent. The demented failure to conceive of the possibility that police
sometimes target the wrong person shows the accused should definitely flee his domain. Former DA, Steven Gerttula filed against
every one of the Clatsop DA’s in order to protect his client from their guilty bias.
Statement of reasonable doubt: The prosecution may have been less aggressive or even dismissed the case with an unbiased DA.
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney should have done the diligent research to learn of the County’s strong prosecutorial
bias, learned how to file a block against all the local DAs, and filed to get an outside DA.
26 ) Council failed to encourage Tom to speak in his own defense.
Thomas M. Kelly is a better public speaker than his attorney which she should have recognized in dealing with him for 2 years.
Instead she discouraged Tom from speaking warning how the DA would twist his words to make him look bad.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Might the jury have been persuaded by the full faith and confidence of a man who has spoken several
home churches into being, of which at least one still meets?
Statement of Incompetent Council: Tom’s attorney should have encouraged her client to speak and if the DA started to twist his words
she should have objected at every occurrence.
27) Council failed to document DA’s incompetence, speculations, and lies to the Oregon State Bar.
Mr. Scott A. Morrill, Assistant General Counsel, Client Assistance Office, Oregon State Bar cited failures of the Defense and Judge to
report the DA’s speculative lies as a reason for initially rejecting my complaint about his behavior.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Who would expect incompetent council to do due diligence to complain about errors not even noticed?
Statement of Incompetent Council: The councilor’s failure to object during the trial or complain afterward about the DA’s egregious
lies implies doing less than her full duty.

Clatsop County DA Ron Brown consisting of:

To make my issue with Mr. Morrill’s response more clear, let me borrow his style for a moment:
The Oregon State Bar receives complaints against member attorneys, sends copies to said attorney, and if
warranted conducts investigations into attorney practices. We conclude the bar never has to investigate since
you always find your paid membership honest. Now we appreciate you need to appear to justify your income
by responding and that Mr. Brown is fortunate to have such motivated peers at the local bar which will support
his every wrongdoing. Mr. Brown’s job was to suppress evidence and lie for the state and he did his duty quite
professionally. We feel you don’t understand Truth at all and the role it should play in every trial.

Mistrial Report On State v. Kelly Case 06-1238
Compiled by Kirk W. Fraser
1) Kelly had access to pornography in her parent’s home and parents who developed websites with porn links.
May 27, 2008 11:22:26 AM DA said It’s about motives, asked if any pornography in house there is no evidence, they’d have to lie
The Truth: Pom on their website profiles means there is pom on the computer(s) in their house (possibly from start of relationship).
See: Tom Jr. http:/7 profiles. yahoo.com / l:1 yingfish 52 (cool link to www. penishol. com )
See: Anne http: // profiles. yahoo.com / plzernlace (cool link to www.saiinsiippers.com )
Statement of reasonable doubt: Since the DA’s very emphatic claim that they’d have to lie to say they had porn in their home is
provably a lie by the DA, it is reasonable to assume the DA used other lies to support his case.
2) Keiiy was evaluated by experts as telling huge whopper lies and wasn’t asked if she was doing it on the stand.
May 22, 2008 4:22:19 PM Psych . Christine Arthur - She told the whoppers, lies no one could believe and it went on and on.
The absence of asking if she was lying now on the stand reflects badly on the defense and both lawyers’ pursuit of the truth.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Is it possible that might have confessed she made the whole thing up if she were simp ly and
directly asked? Without Anne present?
3) Kelly fits the classic profile of a child who will do anything to make her second home work.
A System Out of Balance video at http:// www.accused .com / library /client. vids. html 33:35 into recording
“ A long campaign of subconscious programming is more effective than overt brainwashing. It destroys the bond between the ex-
spouse and child.”
This divorce scenario sounds like it describes the tug of war relationship between Tom and Annie as partial parents to the child.
Annie succeeded in destroying ’s love for Tom enough so she changed from a past testimony that she loved him to saying on
the witness stand that she didn’t love him.
A System Out of Balance video at http://www.accused .com / nbrary/cllent. vids. html 34:00 into recording
“A child who has a basic psychological bond with one parent that is stronger than that with the hated parent will do anything to
maintain that bond between the loved parent and the child. Remember the child feels they were once abandoned by the hated parent
when the divorce occurred. The child does not want to be abandoned a second time by taking sides against the loved parent. They
will do anything to maintain that bond with the loved parent. One of the ways this is done is by making complaints against the hated
parent. The child then gathers support from the loved parent. The child is fearful of expressing love for the hated parent for fear that
it will displease the loved parent. The complaints start out as minor complaints but when the child custody battle becomes ferocious
and the small complaints escalate into accusations of child abuse.”
was in this scenario more than any proposed by the DA. There was an unwritten custody battle between grandpa Tom who
loved and her new step-mom who she saw every day. The mom fine-tuned her psychological warfare as attacked her
dad Tom Jr. with false accusations of hitting her with a stick to attacking her grandpa with false accusations of sex abuse.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Could the charges be just plain wrong? The motives for lying seem very strong.
4) Kelly was coached pre-trial, and on the witness stand by the DA proving her susceptibility to coaching.
Proof of coaching the girl is available by comparing the pre-trial documentation with her trail testimony.
Interview between Det. Kristen Hanthorn and Elaine Kelly on June 1, 2006 - Date of Tom's arrest.
Concerning 's description of Tom's penis.
HANTHORN: I can give you her exact words; She said, "The balls are gushy and the middle is hard and the top is soft."

Judge Matyas:
RE: Friend of Court Brief; Request For Mistrial & Acquittal or Reduced Sentence On State V . Thomas M. Kelly, Case 06-1238
There were serious procedural errors or misconduct that resulted in an unfair trial in State V. Kelly , Case 06-1238 based on the
following facts which will be supported in the enclosed mistrial report.
1) Kelly had access to pornography in her parent’s home and parents who developed websites with pom links.
2) Kelly was evaluated by experts as telling huge whopper lies and wasn’t asked if she was doing it on the stand.
3) Kelly fits the classic profile of a child who will do anything to make her second home work.
4) Kelly was coached pre-trial, and on the witness stand by the DA proving her susceptibility to coaching.
5) Kelly was abused in her biological mother’s custody before in custody of dad and visitations to her grandparents.
6) Tom Kelly was voted guilty on charges that have a 60% false accusation rate, worse than random guessing.
7) Tom Kelly was prosecuted with increased charge counts due to coaching of the accusing child.
8) Tom Kelly had incompetence of counsel, failed to make proper objections and presentations at trial and closing statement.
9) Tom Kelly had sperm heads which could have been 25 years old used as evidence within the shorter trial time window.
10) Tom Kelly had love with no intent of arousing or gratifying the lust or passions or sexual desires of himself or .
11 ) Tom Kelly was prosecuted with speculation and outright lies which are stated illegal by the Oregon Bar.
12 ) Tom Kelly had no prior sexual molestation accusations in over 28 years of church starting.
13) Tom Kelly did not receive the due process of being presumed innocent until proven guilty.
14) Kelly has a stepmother who had a vicarious need to punish someone for her sex abuse and a financial motive
15) Kelly has a stepmother who is capable of lying when it suits her purpose.
16) Kelly has a dad who exhibits a classic preacher’s kid disrespect for authority by having kids w/o marriage.
17) Kelly had transference of sexual images from video tape to alleged sexual behavior of granddad.
18) Kelly had false memories created by suggestions and expectations of interviewers from Annie to police to DA.
19) Kelly was diagnosed about age three with autism, spectrum disorder, aspergers disease, post traumatic stress disorder,

20) Court had different pre-trial and trial judges making trial judge less informed and less likely to accept motions to acquit.
21) Court accepted jurors with conflict of interest who stated it wouldn’t affect their decision - such are often rejected.
22) State suppressed evidence by returning pom tape which had everything accused Tom of doing to her.
Judge, I’m asking you to retry the case yourself at your desk considering truths not expressed in the trial to justify a decision to acquit.
To do a better job than the jury informed by opposing attorneys, please first educate yourself in false sexual accusation topics by
watching the first four continuing legal education videos at http://www.accused.com /librarv/ incle.vids.htinl and the first for clients
at http:// 81SCCt
To rapidly prove this request has merit, start with a major prosecution lie you can check immediately on your computer.

He's not been able to get an erection for a good year or so.
HANTHORN: So you guys have sexual relations then?
ELAINE: Yes, He's not been able to get an erection.
In the trial has changed her testimony from hard in Hoover’s initial report to say it was soft (May 21, 2008 3:38:24). One
instance of lying by coaching means there could be others. said she lies to not get in trouble (3:51:10). She talked because her
mom was being nice (4:12:31). Was she coached by all interviewers being nice?
claimed on the stand her alleged abuse only happened 2 or 3 times over the whole time with grandparents ( May 21, 2008
3:42:07-40). That means most of the alleged counts are absolutely speculative lies which should be thrown out. Later the DA was
able to get her to say more than 20 times (4:39:35 ). Is that easy to coach? That credibility would argue the whole case with all
charges should be thrown out.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Do the few child molesters who start late in life have Erectile Dysfunction AND still have sexual
relations with a wife?
5) Kelly was abused In her biological mother’s custody before in custody of dad and visitations to her grandparents .
May 22, 2008 4:20:29 PM Psych. Christine Arthur - Possible abuse & violence brackets birth to 3.5
Statement of reasonable doubt: If was violently abused from birth to 3.5, is it likely traumatic reactions could include false
accusations about both parents and grandparents?
6) Tom Kelly was voted guilty on charges that have a 60% false accusation rate, worse than random guessing.
A System Out of Balance video at http:// www .accused .com / library /ciient. vids. html 01 :00 into recording
Statement of reasonable doubt: If this modem witch hunt atmosphere produces accusations at a rate weighted worse than random
guessing, could it be that Tom Kelly is completely innocent?
7) Tom Kelly was prosecuted with increased charge counts due to coaching of the accusing child.
Charge counts were calculated based on the statement of counting on all her fingers and toes spread over time by the color of
houses she lived in at the time of alleged abuses. This pre-trial event was mirrored during the trial. As supported in item 4) the child
.
was coached by the DA on the witness stand to move her count of occurrences up from 2 - 3 to over 20 According to Tom
she also has said he does it all the time. Did the DA also coach her like that pre-trial?
Statement of reasonable doubt: Should such inconsistent testimony ranging from about once a year to once a month to unceasingly
decide how many years a person’s life is wasted in prison? Obviously 2 of the statements are her lies, could all three be lies?
8) Tom Kelly had incompetence of counsel, failed to make proper objections and presentations at trial and closing statement.
Defense attorney Susan Reese did not object to many objectionable statements and actions by the prosecution, some of which are
noted in the accompanying Preliminary Misconduct Report for DA Brown. Her closing statement was so weak, parts of it were barely
audible. Tom Kelly states, “There are at least three boxes of information of the defense that were not brought up in trial for basically
the defense attorney stayed with the mental condition of Kelly and Annie Reeves both their past.” She said it was not about
motives when motives are a key to understanding why the initial abuse charge was made and why lying continued for 2 years to the
witness stand. See section 3) and 14).
Time was spent at trial start to redact people praising on tape which was a part of the pre-trial coaxing that may have
embellished some reported events including the charge counts.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Had the defense attorney acted to more aggressively object at the DA’s conjectures, lies, coaching, and
any other errors, could the minds of the jurors balanced both attorney’s aggression and seen through it to a more accurate picture of
the trial instead of simply believing the more aggressive attorney? Might they have changed their verdict had all the evidence
collected been presented?
9) Tom Kelly had sperm heads which could have been 25 years old used as evidence within the shorter trial time window.
The sperm found on the cushions were not fresh as their tails were gone and could have been up to 25 years old, much longer than
-
has been alive. It’s possible these were deposited by non sexual activity such as nocturnal emission and carried there in Tom’s
pants. He may have had sexual activity with his wife there. Whatever the source, after drying they are like grains of sand which may

22) State suppressed evidence by returning pom tape which had everything accused Tom of doing to her.
Judge, I’m asking you to retry the case yourself at your desk considering truths not expressed in the trial to justify a decision to acquit.
To do a better job than the jury informed by opposing attorneys, please first educate yourself in false sexual accusation topics by
watching the first four continuing legal education videos at http:// www.accused.com / library / mcle.vids.html and the first for clients
at http \ Then review the trial with the list above to see how they each fit the truth.
To rapidly prove this request has merit, start with a major prosecution lie you can check immediately on your computer.
On May 27, 2008 11:22:26 AM DA said It’s about motives, asked if any pornography in house there is no evidence, they’d have to lie
The Truth: Pom on their website profiles means there is pom on the computer(s) in their house (possibly from start of relationship).
See: Tom Jr. http:// g3 rofifes.vahoo.com / flyiiigfish 52 (cool link to w w w. penishot coni)
See: Anne http:// profgies.yahoo.com / p 8 zeriiiIace (cool link to www.satinslippers.com )
If you do not find enough support to acquit, I ask that you minimize the sentence to concurrent and convert it to probation on the basis
that Mr. Kelly has been convicted of moIestingTiis granddaughter without previous -accusation from members of home churches he
started over the years which I attended since 1980 in Astoria, Clatskanie, Knappa, and Rainier until June 2008 and he won’t likely see
—
his granddaughter again so has no opportunity and he will be more benefit to society employed than costing society as a prisoner.
I hope I give you a reasonable doubt about the verdict. Please show Tom Kelly’s family, friends, and the public you care about truth.
Sincerely,
Kirk W. Fraser
He's not been able to get an erecbun for a good year or so.
HANTHORN: So you guys have sexuai relations then?
ELAINE: Yes, He's not been able to get an erection.
In the trial has changed her testimony from hard in Hoover’s initial report to say it was soft (May 21, 2008 3:38:24). One
instance of lying by coaching means there could be others. said she lies to not get in trouble (3:51:10). She talked because her
mom was being nice (4:12:31). Was she coached by all interviewers being nice?
claimed on the stand her alleged abuse only happened 2 or 3 times over the whole time with grandparents (May 21, 2008
3:42:07-40). That means most of the alleged counts are absolutely speculative lies which should be thrown out. Later the DA was
able to get her to say more than 20 times (4:39:35 ). Is that easy to coach? That credibility would argue the whole case with all
charges should be thrown out.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Do the few child molesters who start late in life have Erectile Dysfunction AND still have sexual
relations with a wife?
5) Kelly was abused In her biologiea a mother’s custody before In custody of dad and visitations to her grandparents.
May 22, 2008 4:20:29 PM Psych. Christine Arthur - Possible abuse & violence brackets birth to 3.5
Statement of reasonable doubt: If was violently abused from birth to 3.5, is it likely traumatic reactions could include false
accusations about both parents and grandparents?
6) Tom Kelly was voted guilty on charges that have a 60% false accusation rate, worse than random guessing.
A System Out of Balance video at http:// www .accused .com / 1 i brary/client . vids. html 01:00 into recording
Statement of reasonable doubt: If this modem witch hunt atmosphere produces accusations at a rate weighted worse than random
guessing, could it be that Tom Kelly is completely innocent?
7 ) Tom Kelly was prosecuted with increased charge counts due to coaching of the accusing child .
Charge counts were calculated based on the statement of counting on all her fingers and toes spread over time by the color of
houses she lived in at the time of alleged abuses. This pre-trial event was mirrored during the trial. As supported in item 4) the child
was coached by the DA on the witness stand to move her count of occurrences up from 2 - 3 to over 20. According to Tom
she also has said he does it all the time. Did the DA also coach her like that pre-trial?
Statement of reasonable doubt: Should such inconsistent testimony ranging from about once a year to once a month to unceasingly
decide how many years a person’s life is wasted in prison? Obviously 2 of the statements are her lies, could all three be lies?
8) Tom Kelly had Incompetence of counsel , failed to make proper objections and presentations at trial and closing statement.
Defense attorney Susan Reese did not object to many objectionable statements and actions by the prosecution, some of which are
noted in the accompanying Preliminary Misconduct Report for DA Brown . Her closing statement was so weak, parts of it were barely
audible. Tom Kelly states, “There are at least three boxes of information of the defense that were not brought up in trial for basically
the defense attorney stayed with the mental condition of Kelly and Annie Reeves both their past.” She said it was not about
motives when motives are a key to understanding why the initial abuse charge was made and why lying continued for 2 years to the
witness stand. See section 3) and 14).
Time was spent at trial start to redact people praising on tape which was a part of the pre-trial coaxing that may have
embellished some reported events including the charge counts.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Had the defense attorney acted to more aggressively object at the DA’s conjectures, lies, coaching, and
any other errors, could the minds of the jurors balanced both attorney’s aggression and seen through it to a more accurate picture of
the trial instead of simply believing the more aggressive attorney? Might they have changed their verdict had all the evidence
collected been presented?
9) Tom Kelly had sperm heads which could have been 25 years old used as evidence within the shorter trial time window.
The sperm found on the cushions were not fresh as their tails were gone and could have been up to 25 years old, much longer than
has been alive. It’s possible these were deposited by non-sexual activity such as nocturnal emission and carried there in Tom’s
-
pants. He may have had sexual activity with his wife there. Whatever the source, after drying they are like grains of sand which may
fall on a cushion which eventually bounce under the cushion with repeated sitting and stanumg over time. There is no evidence the
sperm were deposited during ’s presence in the house let alone in any direct encounter with her.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Since there is no proof Tom’s sperm were deposited in the manner alleged by the DA, is it actually
evidence of a crime or the first case I’ve heard of where a DA uses DNA to lie to a jury?
10) Tom Kelly had love with no intent of arousing or gratifying the lust or passions or sexual desires of himself or .
Loving grandparents had removed from her mother’s abuse. Further expressions of love led to desire to rest on Tom’s
breast as disciple John rested on Jesus’ breast, out of love, not for sex. That love helped transition her from the abusive home she was
in which made her be diagnosed with many disorders, to a better life where psychoactive drugs weren’t needed.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Is it possible climbed up on her grandfather to rest there as an expression of love, much like a
pet will climb on its loving provider, instead of as an act of sexual perversion?
11) Tom Kelly was prosecuted with speculation and outright lies which are stated illegal by the Oregon Bar.
Although the Oregon State Bar declares lies as illegal behavior by a trial lawyer, the Bar being asked twice by email would not specify
what lies they would prosecute as distinct from normal trial behavior. The DA’s statements documented in the enclosed Preliminary
Misconduct Report are candidate lies.
Statement of reasonable doubt: When a person’s future freedom is on the line, should even the appearance of lying be an accepted
normal practice to convince a jury? If jury members vote influenced by a lie, isn’t the verdict also a lie?
12) Tom Kelly had no prior sexual molestation accusations in over 28 years of church starting.
Elected DA Josh Marquis admitted that Tom Kelly had no priors. Tom was in many people’s homes while starting churches in
-
Astoria, Clatskanie, Rainier, and Knappa so he had more opportunity than a shut in, recluse, or hermit yet he didn’t abuse the
hospitality.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Is it reasonable to think a person who kept himself sexually pure over years of church founding would
betray a member of his own family whom he loved enough to help save from abuse?
13 Tom Kelly did not receive the due process of being presumed innocent until proven guilty.
The legal processing system is broken since it allows DA’s to wildly accuse citizens in their opening statement before proving
anything and their peers at the local Bar support it. A much more civilized approach would be to say, “the state will work to prove
beyond a reasonable doubt that” ... (list of alleged facts) instead of pretending the accusations immediately have standing as fact.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Since the DA stretched the presumption of innocence rule in his opening statement, it is reasonable to
assume he also stretches the law in other areas. Could enough stretching of the law frame a false verdict?
14) Kelly has a stepmother who had a vicarious need to punish someone for her sex abuse and a financial motive.
Motives for Annie Reeves to lie include: to stabilize relation with Tom Jr., vicarious punishment on her childhood abuser,
punishment to senior Kellys for not babysitting her own kids when having back pain , and future civil suit money. The intent for a
civil lawsuit against the defendant’s wife Lily has received a warning of since the trial from a person conversant with both sides.
Tommy tried to pawn children off to Tom and Lily as Annie threatened to leave. With this fabrication, realizes she can get
Annie's approval, that she did not have before. States Annie is her best friend now.
Statement of reasonable doubt: The keys to legal proof seem to be motive, means, and opportunity. Annie had moti ves. Her means
was subtle coaching of who had greater motives based on classic behavior to maintain a friendly loving parent relationship in
her life, and because Annie and live together Annie had ample opportunity. With all three motive, means, and opportunity
present, we have a legal proof Annie Reeves filed false charges against Tom Kelly.
15) Kelly has a stepmother who is capable of lying when it suits her purpose.
Statement of reasonable doubt: If Annie has lied about the testimony of her apparent spouse, she is capable of lying. Could she be
lying about the whole thing? Was she coached into believability by the DA as easily as ?
16) Kelly has a dad who exhibits a classic preacher’s kid disrespect for authority by having kids w /o marriage.
Although Tom Sr. was not an ordained pastor, he started several home churches over the years. Tom Jr. was aware of his dad’s faith
enough to call him “an old Jew” in my presence. Sadly Tom Jr. had a preacher’s kid’s disrespect for authority by having his kids
without marriage.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Is it reasonable to assume someone with proven disrespect for authority would obey the law in this
matter where his father stands accused? Could he resent the fact his parents saddled him with his kids to avoid abuse?
17) Kelly had transference of sexual images from video tape to alleged sexual behavior of granddad.
A pom tape collected by police then returned (see item 22) has video images which portray the very things accuses her
granddad of doing to her. The brief exposure to that tape before Tom found out and stopped her from watching it may explain most of
her intimate descriptions of Tom’s anatomy and behavior. She learned from it which provided food for her imagination to develop
more accurate lies.
Statement of reasonable doubt: If saw part of a pom tape in her grandpa’s house, could she associate that material with her
grandpa especially when he showed up to stop her watching?
18) Kelly had false memories created by suggestions and expectations of interviewers from Annie to police to DA.
According to Making Memories video at http:// www .acciised .com / librarv /client . vids. html it is very easy to get completely different
reactions by simply asking a child the same question twice. Constantly asking the witness even non-leading questions by Annie,
Police, and DA would have produced a spectrum of responses as it did on the witness stand covered in item 7). Subtle key words
indicated which false response was desired. And in a friendly environment would even create new lies integrating material
from various sources to not get in trouble. Annie could have simply asked a few key questions daily over two years of pre-
trial work to keep the lie active and in memory.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Creating false memories in young children is so easy, repeating a question will do it. We hope
education reduces this gullibility as they get older. Is it possible most words against Tom by were implanted not by rehearsing
a script but by asking questions repeatedly with subconscious cues such as strengthening or withdrawing love showing the desired
response?
19) Kelly was diagnosed about age three with autism, spectrum disorder, aspergers disease, post traumatic stress
disorder, voices in her head seeing colors in
her brain.
It isn’t known if these disorders were from just abuse, a reaction to the cocktail of psychoactive drugs she was prescribed, or a
combination. We do know the from about 3.5 on to age 10 she seems to have improved, with the exception of her falsehoods about
Tom which can be explained by item 3) above. It seems Tom & Lily helped extract from a psychologically harmful
environment and helped love her back to near normal but the step mother has been using her against Tom.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Could Kelly still be experiencing some residual effects or flashbacks due to her earlier years on
drugs? Did she develop a pattern of unrestrained lying back then which carries forward to today? Could that have led to a false—
conviction?
20) Court had different pre-trial and trial judges making trial judge less informed and less likely to accept motions to acquit.
Judge Matias. Who was assigned to the trial 2 wks before the court date, [...]
Judge Brownhill who listened to over 2 years of pretrial testimony, conveniently took a vacation during the trial ,
Statement of reasonable doubt: If a judge has heard everything for 2 years, might there be more response to a motion to acquit than
from one who has only 2 weeks experience with thexase?
21) Court accented jurors with conflict of interest who stated it wouldn’t affect their decision - such are often rejected.
Every time I’ve been interviewed for jury duty at every level city, state, and federal, my small experience of being run into from
behind by a car while I was on my bicycle which resulted in temporary unconsciousness but no trial, has been used as a reason to
release me despite my statement that it wouldn’t affect my decision. In my personality, the prejudices of prior meetings with people
would carry more weight than an unrelated accident. Thus in my opinion the court did a disservice to the trial by accepting jurors
such as John Mattingly, who attends Catholic church with DA Ron Brown. Another had a past association with a Kelly.
Statement of reasonable doubt: Consider a past association may have parted on good terms or bad - regardless of protestations that it
wouldn’t affect their decision, is there reasonable doubt that it might in some circumstances?
22) State suppressed evidence by returning porn tape which had everything accused Tom of doing to her.
“The police took two pom lanes during a search of our home. They also took 27 VMS tapes which contained no pom and 8mm home
videos which contained no pom. Before the trial these tapes were returned to the defense. They were picked up at the Clatsop County
Sheriffs Department by my wife Lily Kelly. When we went through the tapes we notices that they had returned one of the two pom
tapes. Which we thought was odd. On the pom tape they returned was every thing Kelly said I did to her. My iawyer toid us
because this tape had left the custody of the State it couldn't be used as a defense of why knew these things. We feel it was
given back on purpose to keep it out of evidence in the trial.” ( From Tom ’s written defense statement )
Statement of reasonable doubt: The verdict may have been changed by showing the suppressed pom tape to the jury.

Re : Ronald Brown ( Kirk W. Fraser )
Dear Mr. Fraser:
The Oregon State Bar has received your complaint regarding Ronald Brown, the chief
deputy district attorney who prosecuted your friend , Thomas Kelly. The Client Assistance
Office (CAO) is responsible for reviewing concerns regarding Oregon lawyers. Under Bar
Rule of Procedure 2.5, CAO determines whether there is sufficient evidence to support a
reasonable belief that misconduct may have occurred warranting a referral to Disciplinary
Counsel’s Office for further investigation . Misconduct means a violation of the rules of
professional conduct and applicable statutes that govern lawyer conduct in Oregon .
You have expressed concern about the conduct of Mr. Brown during his prosecution
of Mr . Kelly. The gist of your concerns is that Mr. Brown misled the jury by lying to it ,
speculating, misinterpreting the evidence, and presenting imaginative scenarios. To
paraphrase, you feel that Mr . Brown obtained a guilty finding by fooling the jury.
We conclude that there is no basis to warrant a referral to Disciplinary Counsel’s
Office for further investigation. I would like to first note that we appreciate your concern
and that Mr. Kelly is fortunate to have such a motivated friend . However, we feel that you
have misunderstood the adversarial process and Mr. Brown’s role in it.
The excerpts from the trial you provided are taken from the opening statements,
closing statements, cross examination of an expert witness and motions for the judge. One
brief excerpt is from Mr. Brown’s questioning of the victim, which does not change our
analysis in this matter.
Mr. Brown’s responsibility is ro rpprpcpnr rbp iru- - pcf s r> f fhp Sfafp r> f Qr^g^n He
pt
may not lie to the jury, personally vouch for the credibility of any witness or argue facts not
in evidence. However, he may argue, on his analysis of the evidence, for any position or
conclusion with respect to these issues . Mr. Kelly’s lawyer was expected to do the same and
from what I listened to, she did so. Lawyers (prosecutors and defense lawyers ) are also given
great leeway during opening statements , closing statements and arguments in support or in
opposition to motions to frame the case. Both sides are allowed to explain what they believe

the evidence will show and then later argue what they believe it actually did show. The
information you provided indicates that Mr. Brown was arguing his position or conclusion
based on the evidence presented at this trial.
The excerpts I listened to also showed that Mr. Brown did not personally vouch for
the credibility of any witness. While he apparently argued that some witness statements were
more believable than others as supported by the evidence that is not misconduct . It is , in
fact, what both lawyers are expected to argue.
You made one other complaint I would like to discuss. You allege that Mr. Brown
coached the witness / victim . In support of that you note that she testified at one point that
the abuse only happened two or three times , but later testified that it happened more than
twenty times . This is not evidence that Mr . Brown coached her. It strikes us as evidence that
a young girl was confused or nervous as she was questioned in a very stressful setting. That
her answers were inconsistent does not indicate that Mr. Brown coached her.
Finally, we are struck by the fact that neither the judge nor Mr. Kelly's lawyer
complained about Mr. Brown’s conduct. Both are obligated to report misconduct by lawyers
that they witness . That they did not file complaints further convinces us that Mr. Brown
only argued the State’ position based on his analysis of the evidence.
Because we find no professional misconduct , we will take no further action on this
matter. If you disagree with this disposition , you may have the matter reviewed by General
Counsel, provided we receive your request for review in writing on or before July 8, 2008.
The decision of General Counsel is final.
Very truly yours,

Mr. Morrill,
The enclosed materials are the evidence for this complaint against Clatsop County DA Ron
Brown consisting of: 6 FTR CD’s, 1 copy of Daily Astorian front page story May 29, 1 letter
requesting mistrial, one Preliminary Misconduct Report. The designation Preliminary refers to
the fact that these instances of misconduct reported by an amateur should easily be expanded by
a professional.
A major thrust of his lies were to deny the defendant due process of holding him innocent until
proven guilty by opening with accusations of guilt and sticking to them regardless of other
interpretations of the evidence. Perhaps the current court procedure of giving the prosecution both
opening and final closing should be changed.
I request prosecution to the fullest extend of the Bar’s rales which would sentence him consecutively as
he asked for innocent Tom Kelly to be sentenced. If possible this would sentence him to consecutive
periods of disbarment, say 6 months for each instance in each case you investigate. It would be poetic
justice if that were to equal 166 years.
Further, since his office in Clatsop County is ran by Joshua Marquis who has published materials in
denial of the findings of the book Actual Innocence and the Innocence Projects it spawned in many law
schools, I request full investigation of his cases looking for similar misconduct.
Sincerely,
&

RE: Friend of the Court Request For Mistrial With Retrial Or Release On State V. Thomas M. Kelly, Case 06 1238 -
The trial audio contains dozens of lies based on speculations, imagined scenarios, conjecture, and opinions not fact which were
presented as or implied as facts to the jury. Many of these are obvious when looking at the case from a presumption of innocence.
There are a few where evidence directly contradicts the State’s position, two you can test yourself right now' with the aid of a
computer (See Misconduct Report May 27, 2008 11:22:26). Since DA Brown introduced provable lies, it is proper for you to
consider all his testimony not in the interests of truth in this case, the verdict wrong, and discontinue sentencing.
A few other trial highlights should be considered. If the DA were seeking the truth he would have not only asked about ’s
problems with lying and this case but he would have directly asked if she was lying right now about her grandpa. One of the
ongoing concerns in the DA’s opening through Dr. Little’s testimony to the DA’s final closing was motives for the child lying and
parent’s lying. Specific potential motives were not mentioned. Possible motives exist (See Misconduct Report May 20, 2008
5:07:24 and 5:07:36). The potential for a civil lawsuit against the defendant Lily has received a warning of since the trial from a
person familiar with both sides.

Proof of coaching the girl is available by comparing the pre trial documentation with her trail testimony.
Interview between Det. Kristen Hanthorn and Elaine Kelly on June 1 , 2006 - Date of Tom’s arrest.
Concerning 's description of Tom's penis.
HANTHORN: I can give you her exact words; She said, "The balls are gushy and the middle is hard and the top is soft."
ELAINE: You know what? Right there, He can't get an erection. He's been humm,
He's not been able to get an erection for a good year or so.
HANTHORN: So you guys have sexual relations then?
ELAINE: Yes, He’s not been able to get an erection.
In the trial has changed her testimony from hard in Hoover’s initial report to say it was soft (May 21, 2008 3:38:24). One
instance of lying by coaching means there could be others. said she lies to not get in trouble (3:51:10). She talked because
her mom was being nice (4:12:31). Was she coached by all interviewers being nice?
claimed on the stand her alleged abuse only happened 2 or 3 times over the whole time with grandparents (May 21, 2008
3:42:07-40). That means most of the alleged counts are absolutely speculative lies which should be thrown out. Later the DA was
able to get her to say more than 20 times (4:39:35). Is that easy to coach? That credibility would argue the whole case
The theatrics of the DA in his final closing before the jury (which is always selected for gullibility) failed to disclose the DNA
from sperm heads could have fallen out of his pants up to 25 years ago from non-sexual nocturnal emissions.
I’ve personally known Thomas M. Kelly since 1980 as a man of conscience who has started several home church meetings in
surrounding communities over the years. I’ve attended his meetings in Astoria, Rainier, Clatskanie, and Knappa. As far as I’m
aware there has never been a claim of this nature before. You may be aware that preacher’s kids are notorious for misbehavior and
Tom Jr. is no exception as obedient Christians marry before having kids.

Since the book Actual Innocence and the Innocence Projects in various law schools which it spawned claims 20% 30% of all
prisoners are innocent and there is enough hard evidence, soft evidence, and speculative refutation to completely overturn the
DA’s testimony, it seems more likely Mr. Kelly is innocent than guilty. So please do the right thing and release him either
permanently or for a retrial.
Sincerely,
Kirk W. Fraser
Preliminary Report of Misconduct by
Clatsop County DA Ron Brown
Case 06-1238 State v. Kelly
The preponderance of the DA’s statements in this case were lies consisting of speculative imagined scenarios and
opinions, very few identified as alleged, attributed to any witness or identified as what if possibilities but stated as facts
to the jury. The frequency of such statements leads me to suggest investigation into other cases by the DA and others
from his office to determine the scope of this culture of lies.
Of course direct name calling such as when he called Tom "evil" in final closing with only circumstantial evidence are
also plain lies. Note this report contains comments on time indexed statements which appear to be misconduct, not the
entire statements which may also cover other topics.
Misconduct Summary
True justice presumes innocence until proven guilty. Repeatedly programming the jury over and over with
speculation, imagined scenarios and opinions without support of evidence or honest witnesses is not proof of guilt but
the cumulative programming effect often gets unjust wins for the state. The DA’s setup against motives is carried into
his final closing statement indicating inability to discover the truth with his speculations.
Misconduct Summary
Coaching the witness was covertly demonstrated by DA Brown with on the stand. The DA accomplished
coaching by approaching the child and having her do a very easy task to gain her confidence then ask the question in a
more familiar way she'd already been coached on. DA also neglects to ask Annie specifically about computer
pornography in the house.
Misconduct Summary
DA fails to ask Tom Jr. if anyone in the house has seen pornography on the computer, which would make it available
in house and in temporary files still in the house, when in fact a website link on Tom Jr.’s profile page is linked to a
pornographic website. DA continues to ignore ’s problem of lying relative to this case. DA didn’t ask if the Dr.
alleging sexual abuse could narrow the time of alleged abuse to before Channel was brought under Tom Jr.’s custody
or during the times of grandparent visitation addressed by this case. DA ignores both of ’s numeric assessments
on abuse frequency lying to Judge and Jury by claiming it happened all the time. DA implies abuse prior to arrival at
defendant’s house is abuse by defendant, a direct lie. DA said a child diagnosed as capable of extreme whopper lying
is giving credible testimony without justification at all, let alone justification to override a Psychiatrist.
Date May 23, 2008
1 1:05:53 AM DA confirms if child is telling the truth suggestive questions won’t have much effect.
Application: If was telling the truth, why could the DA so easily manipulate her on counts?
11:21:00 AM DA associates “the good stuff ’ term with indicating a sex abuser, which expert denies.
3:31:30 PM DA associates dates with counts to pin down for jury the time frame for each count
Misconduct Summary
DA confirms with expert if a child is telling the truth the child won’t be very suggestible yet the day before, DA easily
manipulated ’s testimony from 2-3 counts to over 21, implying wasn’t telling the truth . The DA did not
expose or submit to that truth. DA over the course of the trial and especially on this day exposes a deep seated fantasy
that “the good stuff’ means sex abuser in his mind and even though refuted by an expert, uses his lying point the
following day, May 27. A particularly subtle act of embellishing speculation occurred when DA moved to correspond
dates with counts, thus making a framework for considering the counts actually happened when they did not.
Misconduct Summary
DA’s lie count is shocking in closing argument and final closing. It’s surprising the jury was so gullible to believe the
DA. The variety of lies spans many categories, lies of omission to mislead the jury, lies of speculation, lies of failure to
consider or mention possible motives, alternate explanations, availability of pornography in parent’s home(s) by
computer and TV, so many that for accuracy readers should explore each misconduct in the timeline and realize there
may be more to discover .
Paragraph 3 Defendant did not show pornographic videos to or assault his granddaughter. Speculation, lie not fact.
Paragraph 6, 7 Kelly did not yell or shout but spoke in a calm voice. For proof triai CD May 28 2008, 3:56:34
Paragraph 8 Twelve police officers were not present. Eyewitnesses said two escorted him out. Lie not fact.
Paragraph 10 The good guy is in jail. The case was a real win for the good guys? Speculation, lie not fact.
Paragraph 11 The true victim is the innocent defendant. The false accuser is to be praised? Speculation, not fact.
Misconduct Summary
DA publishes his false speculations, false assessments, and false self glorification, praising the wrong person.
Misconduct Review
DA Brown is taking the position of a social parasite interpreting facts to fit his agenda instead of serving the truth. The
DA fails to consider alternative explanations of the child’s testimony, including the suggestions of several expert
witnesses that she may be lying and fails to ask or conceive of motives for that lying and the misguidance of her
female parent which poisoned the relationships of that family with one pair of grandparents. The true story is DA Ron
Brown was the evil one in this case and the office which employs and supervises him should be examined for evil also.

RE : Friend of the Court Request For Mistrial With Retrial Or Release On State V . Thomas M . Kelly, Case 06 -
1238
The trial audio contains dozens of lies based on speculations, imagined scenarios, conjecture, and opinions not
fact which were presented as or implied as facts to the jury . Many of these are obvious when looking at the case
from a presumption of innocence. There are a few where evidence directly contradicts the State ' s position , two
you can test yourself right now with the aid of a computer (See Misconduct Report May 27, 2008 1 1 : 22: 26 ).
Since DA Brown introduced provable lies, it is proper for you to consider all his testimony not in the interests of
truth in this case, the verdict wrong, and discontinue sentencing.
“
A few other trial highlights should be considered . If the DA were seeking the truth he would have not only asked
about 's problems with lying and this case but he would have directly asked if she was lying right now
about her grandpa. One of the ongoing concerns in the DA 's opening through Dr. Little's testimony to the DA ' s
final closing was motives for the child lying and parent's lying. Specific potential motives were not mentioned .
Possible motives exist ( See Misconduct Report May 20, 2008 5 : 07: 24 and 5 : 07:36) . The potential for a civil
lawsuit against the defendant Lily has received a warning of since the trial from a person familiar with both sides.
Proof of coaching the girl is available by comparing the pre- trial documentation with her trail testimony . In the
initial police report Hoover recorded she said the defendant 's penis was hard . In a recorded police interview Lily
Kelly said Tom 's penis has been completely soft, in erectile dysfunction for a year and a half before the
interview. In the trial has changed her testimony from hard in Hoover ' s initial report to say it was soft
( May 21, 2008 3:38 : 24 ) . One instance of lying by coaching means there could be others. said she lies to
not get in trouble (3 : 51 :10 ). She talked because her mom was being nice ( 4: 12 :31) . Was she coached by all
interviewers being nice?
claimed on the stand her alleged abuse only happened 2 or 3 times over the whole time with grandparents
6/17/2008
Page 2 of 7
( May 21 , 2008 3 : 42 : 07-40 ) . That means most of the alleged counts are absolutely speculative lies which should
be thrown out . Later the DA was able to get her to say more than 20 times ( 4 :39: 35 ) . Is that easy to
coach ? That credibility would argue the whole case with all charges should be thrown out .
The theatrics of the DA in his final closing before the jury ( which is always selected for gullibility ) failed to
disclose the DNA from sperm heads could have fallen out of his pants up to 25 years ago from non-sexual
nocturnal emissions.
I ' ve personally known Thomas M . Kelly since 1980 as a man of conscience who has started several home church
meetings in surrounding communities over the years . I ' ve attended his meetings in Astoria, Rainier, Clatskanic,
and Knappa. As far as I' m aware there has never been a claim of this nature before . You may be aware that
preacher's kids are notorious for misbehavior and Tom Jr. is no exception as obedient Christians many before
having kids .
Since the book Actual Innocence and the Innocence Projects in various law schools which it spawned claims
20%~ 30% of all prisoners are innocent and there is enough hard evidence, soft evidence, and speculative
refutation to completely overturn the DA 's testimony, it seems more likely Mr . Kelly is innocent than guilty . So
please do the right thing and release him either permanently or for a retrial .
Sincerely ,

Mr . Morrill ,
The enclosed materials are the evidence for this complaint against Clatsop County DA Ron Brown
consisting of : 6 FTR CD 's, 1 copy of Daily Astorian front page story May 29, 1 letter requesting
mistrial , one Preliminary Misconduct Report . The designation Preliminary refers to the fact that these
few instances of misconduct reported by an amateur should easily be expanded by a professional .
A major thrust of his lies were to deny the defendant due process of holding him innocent until proven
guilty by opening with accusations of guilt and sticking to them regardless of other interpretations of the
evidence. Perhaps the current court procedure of giving the prosecution both opening and final closing
should be changed .
6/17/2008
Page 2 of 2
I request prosecution to the fullest extend of the Bar's rules which would sentence him consecutively as he asked
for innocent Tom Kelly to be sentenced . If possible this would sentence him to consecutive periods of
disbarment, say 6 months for each instance in each case you investigate. It would be poetic justice if that were to
equal 166 years.
Further, since his office in Clatsop County is run by Joshua Marquis who has published materials in denial of the
findings of the book Actual Innocence and the Innocence Projects it spawned in many law schools, I request full
investigation of his cases looking for similar misconduct .
Sincerely,
Kirk W. Fraser

Following is a record of your complaint filed with the Oregon State Bar.
Please retain this for your records.
COMPLAINT
DA Ron Brown will violate the U.S. Constitution Article 5 by tryining Thomas M.
Kelly a third time for the same alleged crime instead of releasing him as the
Constitution requires. This braking of Constitutional Law is scheduled to happen
approximately Feb. 26 at 9AM unless updated by notice in the Courthouse. Mr.
Brown's scheduled actions thus violate the OREGON RULES OF
PROFESSIONAL CONDUCT RULE 3.8 SPECIAL RESPONSIBILITIES OF A
PROSECUTOR The prosecutor in a criminal case shall: (a) refrain from
prosecuting a charge that the prosecutor knows is not supported by probable
cause. The 5th Amendment maes Mr. Kelly immune from the churches to Mr.
Brown is trying a person he knows by the 5th Amendment to be innocent. There is
no need to ask Mr. Brown if he is violating this rule since the 5th Amendment is
clear proof so Mr. Brown's only response would be to lie to the Bar. Since Mr.
Brown is a liberal Democrat, lying, obstruction of justice, denial of Truth instead of
seeking the Truth, and resistance to the Truth is his common behavior. His
allegations against Mr. Kelly have no more truth than the false allegations brought
by Democrats against President Trump. The last trial of Mr. Kelly also violated the
5th Amendment and this was reported to the Bar, but the Bar staff at the time
accepted Mr. Brown's fake response and did no actual investigation, showing the
staff at that time was also Democrat Satan seekers instead of Republican Truth
Seekers. I can only pray the current bar staff is interested in true justice in this
case.

COMPLAINT
DA Ron Brown will violate the U.S. Constitution Article 5 by tryining Thomas M.
Kelly a third time for the same alleged crime instead of releasing him as the
Constitution requires. This braking of Constitutional Law is scheduled to happen
approximately Feb. 26 at 9AM unless updated by notice in the Courthouse. Mr.
Brown's scheduled actions thus violate the OREGON RULES OF
PROFESSIONAL CONDUCT RULE 3.8 SPECIAL RESPONSIBILITIES OF A
PROSECUTOR The prosecutor in a criminal case shall: (a) refrain from
1
prosecuting a charge that the prosecutor knows is not supported by probable
cause. The 5th Amendment maes Mr. Kelly immune from the churches to Mr.
Brown is trying a person he knows by the 5th Amendment to be innocent. There
is no need to ask Mr. Brown if he is violating this rule since the 5th Amendment
is clear proof so Mr. Brown's only response would be to lie to the Bar. Since Mr.
Brown is a liberal Democrat, lying, obstruction of justice, denial of Truth instead
of seeking the Truth, and resistance to the Truth is his common behavior. His
allegations against Mr. Kelly have no more truth than the false allegations
brought by Democrats against President Trump. The last trial of Mr. Kelly also
violated the 5th Amendment and this was reported to the Bar, but the Bar staff
at the time accepted Mr. Brown's fake response and did no actual investigation,
showing the staff at that time was also Democrat Satan seekers instead of
Republican Truth Seekers. I can only pray the current bar staff is interested in
true justice in this case.

I wish to file a complaint against Clatsop County District Attorney Ron Brown, OSB#791726. I believe that he committed
a number of infractions of the Rules of Professional Conduct. This includes having 10 conflicts of interest that he failed to
disclose, involvement in a matter then filing and attempting to prosecute 2 frivolous and malicious criminal cases
personally, as well as encouraging individuals to destroy digital evidence of his involvement, as well as personal
friendships with the purported victims. He also made filings to the court without making required (the templates he
hastily used even show on the record the requirement for) good faith efforts to confer before filing, gross negligence on
pleadings (sloppy cut and paste jobs then failing to mark required responses, et al. There is reasonable suspicion to
believe that he also encouraged the inappropriate conduct of two Astoria Police officers who in turn repeatedly
harassed me 12 times and tried to violate 5th amendment/Miranda et al rights.

Additional information pertinent to the complaint against Ron Brown has come to light. There has been additional
information that has surfaced regarding the malicious and baseless criminal complaint that Ron Brown filed against me
involving Jeff Hazen, Sunset Empire Transportation District and Astoria School District et al. and has failed to file the
appropriate dismissal.
On February 14, 2023 Ron Brown had a subordinate unprepared attorney "appear" at the arraignment Zoom hearing for
him. Jeff Hazen, knowing that his employer Sunset Empire Transportation District was going to be holding an executive
session to consider disciplining him, appeared at the arraignment hearing in an attempt to bolster malicious/bad
faith/retaliatory claims.. Minutes after the arraignment hearing, the Daily Astorian newspaper was notified by Mr. Hazen
or by Mr. Brown about the arraignment and ultimately causing the Daily Astorian to publish a one sided article and
tamper with the potential jury pool. On February 15, 2023 the Board of Sunset Empire Transportation District voted to
suspend Mr. Hazen for 3 days without pay stemming from the misconduct complaint that I had filed against him several
months ago when I was an employee of Sunset Empire Transportation District and encompassed the meeting that Ron
Brown is maliciously/inappropriately trying to take issue with without a basis in law.. Jeff Hazen unlawfully retaliated
against me repeatedly including in seeking my termination and filing the malicious report with the assistant chief of
police of Astoria PD and ultimately Ron Brown which in part led to the charging document (the other part having 2
conflicts of interest). Ron Brown and his subordinates (now 2 different subordinates have become involved) have failed
to file the appropriate motion to dismiss and continue to erode the court's authority and waste county and state
resources as well as the court's time in 3 different counties so far given that Clatsop County is having to find judges from
different counties to preside because of Kirk Wintermute's conflicts of interest and his own misconduct.

The Bar should consider Mr. Brown's response as a deliberate, albeit reckless, attempt to mislead the Bar instead of
providing a verifiable and factually based response.
Mr. Brown tried inappropriately and nepotistically to sway the Bar's opinion and investigation when he tried to highlight
his years as a prosecutor and lawyer. However, in the context of his misconduct and the complaint, those years of
purported experience only show that he has had decades of reason to know better (and know the RPC's) than to engage
in misconduct and unethical actions.
Mr. Brown's response is nearly entirely false and misleading statements not based on fact. And in at least a couple of
cases were admissions of additional misconduct that the Bar should consider.
In his response Mr. Brown admitted that he filed the two criminal cases "following complaints" from individuals that he
knew (Jeff Hazen and Heidi Wintermute/Kirk Wintermute), instead of following police reports being forwarded to him.
This shows at least two issues of misconduct. He allowed individuals who he knew, to deliberately use his position for
their own retaliatory unlawful gain. This is not just a misconduct issue, but also a criminal act on Mr. Brown's part.
Secondly, it lends to the allegation that Mr. Brown deliberately and inappropriately colluded with personnel of the
Astoria Police Department to achieve a specific outcome instead of allowing Astoria Police officers to objectively and
organically investigate. Mr. Brown inappropriately used his position to impress upon APD personnel, including in giving
direction to APD to continue to harass me or other individuals even after an individual has invoked their 5th amendment
or Miranda rights.
Thirdly, he admitted to knowing the individuals but deliberately tried to downplay how he knows them instead of
addressing the conflict of interest issue. He did this because he could not refute that he professionally and personally in
and outside his direct line of work, criminal prosecution, knew the individuals which ultimately led to him filing the
criminal cases that he's already admitted to. Additionally the Bar must take his response/action as deceptive.
There is nothing factually that irrefutably states truth in what he wrote, including but not limited to not providing
anything justification, i.e. contents of conversations with individuals directing them to call the police and file a report if
they believe that a crime occurred. There is none of that. And there is none of that because Mr. Brown did nothing of
the sort. Additionally, he's admitted to the phone calls. It is fact that his staff does not transfer phone calls to him from
individuals. Which means he gives out his direct line to people he knows personally or professionally. And Heidi
Wintermute would have no means to get that phone number except through her husband Judge Wintermute who
knows Mr Brown both personally and professionally and knowing Mr Brown herself.
Additionally and slightly comparatively, in October 2022 a heavily intoxicated register sex offender parolee deliberately
drove head on at a transit bus I was driving at a bus stop nearly striking the bus then partially breaching the bus alarming
the passengers. That was immediately reported to 911. There were some 911 dispatch blunders the day of the incident
due to new staffing/lack of experienced staff, but ultimately the day after the incident, Warrenton police officer
Dalrymple established more than sufficient probable cause to cite/arrest the suspect John Ewen for wreckless driving
and submitted it to Mr Brown for prosecution. John Ewen has an extensive criminal history in Clatsop County. Yet, Mr.
1
Brown did nothing to prosecute John Ewen for the incident in which he could have killed or seriously injured more than
20 people.

The email that was sent a couple of days ago was not supposed to have been sent yet as it was not completed. This
email is an extension of that original response it was sent a couple of days ago.
Mr. Brown maliciously filed baseless cases against me that are not based on fact and law. As a licensed attorney in
Oregon and moreso as a prosecutor, he has a legal and ethical obligation to do due diligence BEFORE coming to
conclusions and decisions because if he didn't he'd be bringing meritless cases.
Further evidence that Mr. Brown acted unethically, unprofessionally, unintelligently, and engaged in misconduct is that
Mr. Brown failed to review even the most basic caselaw surrounding "interception of communication" including State v.
Neff which outlines what does and does NOT constitute a violation of the "interception of communication" that
attorneys and even civilians with no legal background can easily find. Had he, he would have found that he has
inconsistent facts that cannot be used AND that the facts do not constitute a criminal act or violation of the
"interception of communication " statute. The ONLY reason that Mr. Brown maliciously brought baseless charges, is
because of his personal and professional associations with individuals and allowing his position to be used for their
personal benefit.
Additionally, Mr. Brown is engaging in additional misconduct by attempting to use this misconduct complaint against
him to have the facts tried before trial and an illegal attempt to get me to talk about facts when I have repeatedly stated
use of 5th amendment and Miranda rights and do have legal representation for the malicious cases, and he is trying to
gain information without my attorney present.

There are screenshots of Ron Brown's comments which would warrant reopening of the misconduct complaint against
him. I just haven't been able to access them because of a laptop cable issue. I hope to be able to resolve that issue in the

COMPLAINT
1
in clatsop county but i moved on 6-02-2022 out of astoria oregon of clatsop
county and i was afraid that the astoria police from clatsop county was going to
kill me and hurt me just because we have a diffrrent background i am a woman
from romania and i lived in clatsop county for many years there and i never
broken any law at all in clatsop county i was missing in june 1 -2022 and ron
brown the clatsop da sent the police to put fear in my husband pavel and
intimidation and also to put fear and intimidation in my mother and brother and
in me maria and we use to live next to the hudak family who made threats to
our family and astoria police did nothing to stop our neighbors from bullying and
discriminating us and putting fear in us i have a heart health condition physical
heart pain and astoria police officer Berry from astoria police went to my former
address to say to my husband pavel officer berry made me and my husband
pavel drug adddicts and we are not drug addicts at all so here are the
misconduct of ron brown the clatsop county court appointed me a lawyer by the
name of christopher kaino but for months he did nothing to help me with my
case he did not do a subpoena to bring my witness pavel he did not get the
video from safeway incident from 5-6-2022 and he did not let me talk no
communication very little so i had to fire him and i am wrongfully accused by
ron brown the only thing i did is i called the ambulance when needed and i
called the local police when needed theres no crime in that everyone call the
ambulance and the local authorities when needed is not a crime we are living in
a free country where we have right as citizens and the right to exercise our
human rights than they gave me a second appointed lawyer who yielled at me
his name is lane borg this happened on 9-2022 in a phone conversation the
only thing i maria asked mr. lane what can i bring that would help me in my
case when i come to meet with you and i was only explaining to mr. lane that i
have not killed anyone why am i being charged like a crime i am inocence and
he said dont talk about pedofil but i was not talking to him about pedofil and he
sounded real angry and mad and before on 8-15-2022 mr. lane borg was angry
why i dont except the pretrial pleadings , mr. lane said i have to tell you if i don't
tell you it's not legal they are saying about the electronic bracelet and except
one emergency call and noconviction but he was very angry when i did not
except the pretrial pleadings , i am inocence not guilty : Ron brown
miscondudct--- he is doing lots of postponments and i did not have a quick
hearing like the constitution of usa says and i was intrampment at the
arraingment with the finger prints twice which is not legal they sent me to do
finger printing twice and i maria asked why do i have to do the finger prints
twice because i already did it once and he is doing a personal vendeta and he
is targeting me a poor woman with heart condition and he knows i have a hear
condition at the first arraingment they did not give me any documentatioan to go
do the finger prints until i asked for documentation and the charges were sent at
a later time after i wrote mr. ron brown a email - i maria wrote i read about you
that you put inocence people in jail and you are not gone put me in jail because
i have proof than later i received the new charges in the mail and he is doing
blackmail which is illegal itls a crime he is doing to me like he did to samuel
from the observator newspaper the state of oregon kept asking mr. samuel from
the observator for money to lower the charges samuel had 10 charges and mr.
ron brown is doing the same to me maria and he is doing racial discrimination
because i am from romania and at the arraingment they put lots of fear in me
and intimidation and they send me to the astoria jail to do the finger prints and
2
its presumption of innocence before found guilty but it looks like he is going
against the constitution of usa he is taking away my constitutional rights which
is illegal the whole case that i am is illegal and its a lot of emotiona distress and
crying and depressed and its affecting my health and i get rectal bleeding
phisical heart pain back pain migraine and i was also at providence here in
portland oregon at the er and the doctor told me that i have a kidney stone so
its lots of abuse from this men ron brown and someone needs to investigate
him he should not be in the power of the da of clatsop county because he puts
inocence people in jail and ron brown is taking away my human rights away and
i know my rights he is wrong to do this because we live in a free country usa
where we all have rights- i almost had a heart attack when i went to the astoria
jail to do the finger prints it was like being in a dark place and very scary and
also ron brown keep dragging me back and forth to the astoria clatsop county
and i am a poor woman and have a very bad heart health problem and the only
thing i did i exerciced my human rights and i don't believe that is a crime i lived
here in usa for a little over 40 years in the usa and i never heard that if a citizen
calls the local police drpartment when needs and calls the local ambulance for
help as neede is a crime like i am being accused by ron brrown clatsop da, so
its a lot of abuse from this men i can not sleep at night anymore and this men
should be fired from the da of clatsop county because when mr. ron brown
became a clatsop county da he sworn in to do his job honestly not to do it his
own way this men is corrupted and i maria barbura i do not owe the state of
oregon any money at all and this guy the state of oregon is asking for 6000
dollars from me and i have not stolen anyone i have not killed anyone we use to
live next to some very bad former neighbors that made threaths towards our
barbura family their names are the hudak kerry martin and crystel louise
thompson who live at 3 halsey rd.#1 in astoria oregon 97103 mr. kerry martin
made the threath that someone or somebody is going to get hurt and it's a
promise but the astoria police did not put in the police report and its a promise
thats why the da did not take it seriously that time last year in 2021 the hudak
family had my treasury check of 1800 dollards in theri possession and i said to
the astoria police department that i like to press charge but the astoria police
did not arrest the hudaks and now mr. ron brown is targeting me maria barbura
who only tried to survive in that prejudiced discriminated county the police and
the da in clatsop county is corrupted and they protect the real criminals and the
pedofils and the drug addics and me an inocence person with health problem

clatsop courts is dragging me back and forth to astoria oregon from portland
oregon i do not even live in their county anymore because we have threaths
there in the cltsop county so it's a lot of emotional distress and i loose lots of
blood because it's too much for me since i have the heart problem and i get a
lot o nighmares it is a night mare that i have to deal with ron browns accusation
false accusations and they like to put a lot of fear and intimidation in people ,
ron brown is doing a revenge because when i was missing on 6-1-2022 the

hardly walk he needs to do hip replacement surgery and officer berry from the
3
astoria police department told pavel if i had a suit case and that i maria went
with another men and that i left my husband so ron brown is doing personal
vendeta and he is doing blackmail - the state of oregon is asking me for 6000
dollars i am a poor woman and i have not stolen or borrowed money from the
state of oregon so why are they asking me for money and i amd inocence not
guilty it's a lot of abuse fear intimidation he is taking my constitutional right away
and they do intrampment at the arraingment with making people go to the jail to
do the fingerprints and also i have not signed anything with the clatsop circuit

am wrongfully charged and accused by ron brown someone please investigate
this men because he does not go by usa constitution ok i'll put a copy of what
the police report said back when i had the mail theft in 2021 and i'll put a copy
of ron brown what the obsserver sais about this men he did this to another men
like he is doing to me maria blackmail and asking for money which is blackmail
and blackmail is a crime and when the hudak family did harrassment and
bullying and discrimination and fear the astoria police did nothing i and my

The Oregon State Bar has received your complaint regarding Clatsop County District Attorney Ronald
Brown. The Client Assistance Office (CAO) is responsible for reviewing concerns regarding Oregon
lawyers. Under Bar Rule of Procedure 2.5 and as resources permit, CAO determines the manner and
extent of review required to decide whether there is sufficient evidence to support a reasonable
belief that misconduct may have occurred warranting a referral to Disciplinary Counsel. Misconduct
means a violation of the rules of professional conduct and applicable statutes that govern lawyer
conduct in Oregon.
You contend that Mr. Brown has improperly pursued criminal charges against you. Oregon Rule of
Professional Conduct (ORPC) 3.8 prohibits a prosecutor from pursuing charges that the prosecutor
knows are not supported by probable cause. Probable cause is a very low standard that generally calls
for a finding that there is a reasonable basis for believing that an accused had committed the crime in
question. A prosecutor’s job is to determine whether to pursue charges and which charges are
appropriate. This decision is the best example of how much discretion a prosecutor has in the criminal
process. It is not uncommon for defendants to offer a different version of events than that offered by
other witnesses. That you contest the charges is not sufficient evidence to established that Mr. Brown
has pursued charges he knows to be unsupported.
Because we find no professional misconduct, we will take no further action on this matter. If you
disagree with this disposition, you may have the matter reviewed by General Counsel, provided we
receive your request for review in writing no later than November 4, 2022. The decision of General
Counsel is final.
Respectfully,
