Legal Schnauzer Discusses his First Amendment Case and Bizarre Nov. 14 Court Hearing from Jail

This is Carol, Roger's wife. On Friday, we provided a brief update on the Nov. 14 hearing on "permanent injunctions" in the Legal Schnauzer first amendment case. And not surprisingly, it was indeed a kangaroo court, though possibly even worse than we had anticipated.

We reported that Shelby County Courthouse officials turned away the majority of the people who attempted to appear at the mysterious and strange proceedings by claiming it was closed to the public. However, some supporters were able to gain access to the previously undisclosed location.

I was not present at this hearing, but I did interview Roger Shuler by phone who revealed some alarming details. Some key highlights are as follows:
  1. Roger Shuler--shackled at the ankles, waist and wrist--was led by four sheriff deputies from the jail to the courthouse. Once in the courtroom, he remained shackled throughout the duration of the hearing even when speaking and attempting to question the opposing counsel who was under oath.
  2. The court and the other side were livid about the widespread media coverage of their unconstitutional courtroom circus and shenanigans. Apparently, they believe they have total control of the press all over the entire world and not just here at Legal Schnauzer. They should be free to break the law with reckless abandon and trample the U.S. Constitution without shame and all global media outlets should simply turn a blind eye to their misdeeds.
  3. The court and the other side blamed me, Mrs. Schnauzer, for the media coverage and threatened me with arrest.
  4. Roger Shuler told the court he had no way to remove anything from the blog while still in jail in order to comply with their unconstitutional injunction. The court simply said that was his problem and in essence that he would be in jail indefinitely.
  5. The court and the other side threatened us with monetary sanctions.
  6. The other side never requested a struck jury upon the filing of the underlying alleged "defamation" case. This means it is a bench trial and the final outcome will be decided by the judge only.
  7. The other side filed a motion to remove the seal on the underlying alleged "defamation" case.
The interview with Roger Shuler from jail is now a video on YouTube. It is shown below:

It is these exact type threats of retaliations that "THE LITTLE PEOPLE" live under each day, for you see, even them unlike Roger are all without equal rights advocates, although Roger, while unlawfully illegally jailed can have some satisfaction that what has been happening to him, his family is reaching beyond the boundaries of Alabama.
Roger has achieved a unique position, wanted or not, a lot still continuing to be obstructed from the public, him having become the conscious of Alabama from Murph's Legal Schnauzer's blogging. From New York to California, from Florida to Chicago your story is getting told; but don't let the public's interest subside, keep pushing to go worldwide viral. And "screw em'" if the truths slaps them in their faces.

Roger, the defendant, without legal counsel can motion court for struck jury via him pro se.
EVERY MAN AT CHANCE OF LOST OF FREEDOM BY IMPRISONMENT IS GUARANTEED RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.
Alabama law and U.S.C. title 18
goes further to specify that any pro se defendant be extended all courtroom legal courtesies and legal protocol authorities, specifically stating that any pro se defendant not be held to same standard as a licensed practicing criminal attorney.

Carol, you and Roger hold the line; though difficult now, but remind Roger whenever he feels down and out that in the final outcome that it will have been him that made many before now cloaked wrongs, righted!

ROB RILLEY, THE AMERICAN TALIBAN!!

Russia Today has a presence in the U.S.A. Suffering from the Chinese playing the game, on our soil marching for Grid ? whatever. The game is on. Roger is being treated the way the Chinese dictate. The Alabama Gov thinks it is in control.

The hardcore Mussolini fascist style transnationals aren't going to have the Riley Cult 'governing' in the State of AL. Had Roger not outed how corrupt the so called rule of law - say what IT isn't - IS, IT went into Rove's cesspool of fraud and this is collapsed now. Roger is the hostage for the terrorists and I'd be asking the Embassy for some assistance against a hostile terror cell named 'Riley Et Al'.

I happened to peak in the courtroom. Mr. Shuler had 5 deputies guarding him. I am terribly concerned that there was not more security to protect us, the public, from this 56 year old, handcuffed, shackled man. What we really need, is to be protected from the Rileys.

Hang in there Roger & Carol. I post comments and links to this and Andrew Kreig's site every chance I get. Believe me a lot of people who would have never known about this case are hearing about it thru Facebook, Twitter, etc. Personally I look at what happened to you and Don Siegelman and continue to be appalled that these thugs who have taken over the state can continue to operate as though they are living in their own little dictatorship. Who would have thought that the USA would allow one state to run roughshod over the Constitution & the laws of the land?

The infamy of this fraudulent and illegal process against Roger Shuler instigated by the criminal Riley Mafia and their pocket incompetent Retired Circuit Judge Claude Neilson is spreading world wide. Roger and Carol have friends around the world who will not cease the fight for Rogers freedom. The fight will not end there though. The Riley's are in deep deep trouble but they just don't yet understand how deep yet! Americans of good heart and their friends around the world will not stand by. As for Rogers blog all the relevant articles are now on servers world wide and will not be taken down even if Roger wanted them erased until they have been proven false by a real court in front of a real judge by a real jury. Good luck with that Riley!!

Might be time to start a blog called Legal Pit Bull.

Guest posters could post anonymously on any subject they choose. I think this out of Alabama state blog would be extremely interested in how connected politicians have corrupted the judiciary in Alabama.

Legal Schnauzer can continue under its own name by simply moving it to another country. Simply establish "mirror" blogs. There is nothing the State of Alabama can do about blogs originating out of Canada, Mexico, Ireland, South Africa, Australia, etc.

It is not unreasonable to conclude Riley and crew did not expect this incident to get as much coverage as it has. We can only hope it continues to gain further support.

People may want to continue to write to their politicians at a federal, state, and municpal level to express their concern regarding the treatment of Mr. Shuler and the violation of the First Amendment.

My thoughts are with you and Mr. Shuler.
