Click through for the text of a Bar complaint against the King County (Seattle) Prosecutor's Office, received at the WSBA Office May 26th, at 10:25 A.M.
BAR COMPLAINT AGAINST Dan Satterberg - BAR #15400 Barbara Louise Linde – BAR #10944 Jim Rogers – BAR #18163In 1994 Satterberg, Linde, and Rogers illegally conspired to file criminal charges against a citizen and employee, myself, Douglas Tooley, without evidence, as the Superior Court record shows. The purpose of this effort was not to enforce the law but an enforcement of the legal profession’s ownership of the public interest. This charge involved unsubstantiated allegations by the State of Washington, most telling in the complete conflict of interest of this action in that Mr. Roger’s and Ms. Linde’s spouses were State Employees. Greg Canova was an Attorney General working under Christine Gregoire and Ms. Roger’s spouse, if I recall correctly, a professor at the University of Washington, the specific agency initiating the action.
Please note also that plaintiff was also a member of the Knox/Logan ‘permatemp’ class action suit against King County – evidencing a continuing pattern of using legal status and authority to create, unlawfully, second class citizens.
Please also note the case of Barahimi (sp) v. King County documenting a pattern of harassment by the legal authority against employees who use full good faith in the exercise of their land use related responsibilities.
This case brings up specific questions about the use, abuse, and consequences of civil harassment. Though I have been victimized with this law I do support both it and the seriousness of the consequences that are dealt out through codified and common law civil procedures – so long as they are correctly applied and done so with an appropriate level of due process. Misuse of those procedures is nothing but the reinvention of the cycle of abuse and should be treated at least as harshly. Please note also that harassment for profit, including the salary of a government employee, constitutes felony. Please note also that I personally consider the wanton violation of a citizen’s rights the Constitutional equivalent of a sexual violation.
As I understand it Criminal redress is not possible in this case as only elected Prosecutors have the authority, and discretion, to file charges.
I Douglas L. Tooley affirm, under penalty of perjury, that the information I am providing is true and accurate to the best of my knowledge. I have read Lawyer Discipline in Washington and I understand that the content of my grievance can be disclosed to the Lawyer. I further expect the grieved Lawyer to hold himself accountable to the laws of Washington State without need for any formal proceeding, including his own Common Law standards regarding 2nd class citizenship for abusive behavior. I also remind Satterberg, Linde, Rogers and the Bar that, under the Constitution, each and every individual citizen is the ‘boss’ and that they serve at our pleasure and do not ‘own’ either the law, public assets, or information concerning its operation. I further propose that any attorney capable of passing the Bar exam who does not voluntarily hold him, or her, self equally to the Constitution, Law, Corporate Rules, and their own standards should be considered as genetically defective.____________________________________________May 24, 2010
