Family Court Therapist Janelle Burrill Charged with Misconduct by Attorney General’s Office (Legal Child Trafficking)

Family Court Therapist Janelle Burrill Charged with Misconduct by Attorney General’s Office (Legal Child Trafficking)

Family Court Therapist Janelle Burrill Charged with Misconduct by Attorney General’s Office
By Peter Jamison

The California Board of Behavioral Science and California Attorney General’s office have filed formal accusations of misconduct against a Sacramento family-court therapist.
The therapist, Janelle Burrill, is a clinical social worker who works with children and parents as ordered by family courts in Sacramento and elsewhere. Burrill has been the subject of multiple complaints by families unhappy with her work.
Documents filed against her by the Behavioral Sciences board and the office of Attorney General Kamala Harris allege that Burrill "committed acts that fall sufficiently below the standard of conduct of the profession as to constitute acts of gross negligence."
The documents assert that Burrill lied to both the American Board of Examiners for Clinical Social Workers and to a Placer County judge, claiming in both cases that no formal complaints had been filed against her by clients when she knew otherwise. If the accusations are upheld, her social-worker license could be suspended or revoked.
Burrill has been a lightning rod for criticism in Sacramento, and is only one of numerous family-court officials who have come under scrutiny for faulty and potentially dangerous practices in child-custody proceedings. Last month, SF Weekly published a story detailing multiple instances in which family courts had delivered children into the custody of parents with convictions for child molestation or spousal battery.
Kathleen Russell of the Center for Judicial Excellence, a family-court reform group, said Burrill should be removed from cases in which parents or children have concerns while the case against her proceeds.
"It seems prudent for the Courts to remove her from any case in which she is involved, at the request of either parent or child, to ensure the safety and well-being of the families and children they serve," Russell said in a statement. "And major policy reforms are needed to ensure a more timely resolution of these complaints."

Meet Mr.Ricardo Villalobos: http://www.ricardovillalobos.info/

in 2006, Ricardo Villalobos concocted a bizzare child sexual abuse story designed to further his career at the expense of two innocent children by filing a bogus CPS complaint that he knew was false claiming that the two little girls needed his theraphy for abuse inflicted upon them by their father. The mother of the two children was being manipulated into seeking Mr. Villalobos's therapy through her attorney ( later Convicted in a Federal Court for 3 counts of felony acts and jailed for a year) thought that that the child's father was a International Espionage agent who was wanted by the United States and the Soviet Union for multiple accounts of National Security crimes.

+Several people have questioned Mr. Ricardo Villalobos and his credibility as to his intentions as a therapist.

+In 2008, Judge Charles Maxfield of the Fairfax Circuit Court issued an court order preventing Ricardo Villalobos from having any further contact with two young children he was providing therapy on a bi-weekly basis for over a year while claiming that the children were depressed and confused due to sexual and physical abuse by their father that he had diagnosed.

+In 2007 Judge Leslie Alden of Fairfax Circuit found Ricardo Villalobos's expert testimony lacking any credibility.

+Mr. Villalobos came to court to testify as a expert witness on child abuse - when asked if he had brought his credentials/resume/curricum vita with him. His answer was No, I did not think it was needed in court. (During his testimony, it was learned that, he had never testified as a expert witness before and hence did not know he should have brought his resume with him to court.

+Ricardo Villalobos was conspiring with a convicted felon Lawyer Robert Machen ( Who spent a year in a federal prison) and CPS worker Shannon Traore aka Shannon Tyler...( who was later fired from Fairfax County Child Protective Services).

BSO Case Number: BS10-12-4847
PIO Number: 10-12-19
Date: 12/22/10
Time: 11 a.m. Jurisdiction: Pembroke Pines
Place of Occurrence: 8770 NW 7 Ct., Pembroke Pines

A Broward County speech pathologist isn’t saying much after Broward Sheriff’s Office detectives took him into custody for possession of child pornography.

Following over a dozen tips from the National Center for Missing and Exploited children alerting of a computer user who was uploading and sharing pornographic images of children, BSO detectives with the South Florida Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force conducted an investigation and obtained a warrant to search a home in the city of Pembroke Pines.

When detectives arrived at the home at 8770 NW 7 Ct. on Dec. 22, they came in contact with their target, 66-year-old Warren Day, who at the time was on his computer viewing a child pornography website.
A preliminary evaluation of Day’s computer revealed hundreds of pornographic images of children between 1 and 12 years of age engaging in sexual acts with adults, other children and in sexually explicit positions.

Day refused to answer questions without the presence of his lawyer, but stated “I am a piece of (vulgar term for excrement)” in the presence of BSO detectives.

Day was arrested and charged with 50 counts of child pornography. More charges could be filed pending a full forensic analysis of Day’s computer and two other media devices found inside his home. He was arrested in 1982 in Dade County for committing a sexual act against a child and served two years probation. Due to the date of his offense, he was not required to register as a sexual offender.

For the past seven months Day has worked as a speech pathologist at the Hollywood Rehab Center working with seniors, but throughout his 30 year career he has come in contact with children from kindergarten to high school. He was previously employed by the Dade County School System.

Detectives have identified at least one victim and fear there could be others. If you know anyone who’s been a victim of Warren Day you’re asked to contact BSO Detective Jennifer Montgomery at 954-888-5239 or Broward Crime Stoppers, anonymously, at 954-493-TIPS (8477).

Therapist Charged with Producing Child Pornography

Beth Phillips, United States Attorney for the Western District of Missouri, announced today that a respiratory therapist who sometimes worked in the pediatric unit at Kansas University Medical Center has been charged in federal court with producing child pornography and attempting to distribute child pornography over the Internet.

Michael D. Toal, 55, of Kansas City, Mo., was charged in a criminal complaint filed on Tuesday, Feb. 23, 2010, in the U.S. District Court in Kansas City. Toal had his initial court appearance before U.S. Magistrate Judge Sarah W. Hays this afternoon and remains in federal custody pending a detention hearing on Monday, March 1, 2010.

The federal criminal complaint alleges that Toal used a minor to produce child pornography on Aug. 2, 2009. According to an affidavit filed in support of the complaint, Toal told FBI agents that he sexually abused an 8-year-old child who was in his care at his house. While the victim was asleep, the affidavit says, Toal took sexually explicit photographs of the child with his digital camera and then loaded them onto his computer.

The federal complaint also charges Toal with attempting to distribute child pornography over the Internet on Aug. 10, 2009. According to the affidavit, an agent at the FBI’s Denver, Col., division conducted an investigation using peer-to-peer file-sharing software and downloaded images of child pornography that were available to be shared from Toal’s computer, which was using a similar software program.

Law enforcement officers interviewed Toal at his home earlier this month and seized his computer, which as later investigation revealed, contained a large quantity of child pornography, the affidavit says.

The government filed a motion today to keep Toal in federal custody without bond, alleging that he is a danger to the community. According to the motion for detention, Toal told agents that he inappropriately touched at least one child patient while working as a respiratory therapist. Toal has increased his access to children who are vulnerable, the motion says, by becoming a volunteer with Jackson County’s CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) program for abused and neglected children who are in the care and custody of the state.

The motion for detention also alleges that, because Toal faces a lengthy prison sentence if convicted, he is a flight risk. Under federal statutes, a conviction for producing child pornography carries a mandatory minimum sentence of 15 years in federal prison without parole, up to a sentence of 30 years in federal prison without parole.

Phillips cautioned that the charges contained in this complaint are simply accusations, and not evidence of guilt. Evidence supporting the charges must be presented to a federal trial jury, whose duty is to determine guilt or innocence.

This case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Katharine Fincham. It was investigated by task force officers with the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

Project Safe Childhood

This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice. Led by United States Attorneys’ Offices and the Criminal Division’s Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section (CEOS), Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state, and local resources to better locate, apprehend, and prosecute individuals who exploit children via the Internet, as well as to identify and rescue victims.

Mental Health Therapist Charged with Child Abuse


A former mental health center therapist has been charged with drug and sex activities involving teenage boys under her care.

Media outlets report 34-year-old Tressie Hayes of Julian faces charges of sexual abuse by a parent or custodian, delivery of a controlled substance and child abuse or neglect creating risk of injury.

A criminal complaint says Hayes worked at Prestera Center in Danville and used drugs and had sexual intercourse with two boys that she was counseling. Boone County Sheriff Rodney Miller says some of the activity allegedly occurred at Hayes' office. Miller says Hayes no longer works at Prestera.

Prestera declined comment.

Hayes was being held Monday evening at the Southwestern Regional Jail on $120,000 bond. An after-hours message left with her attorney, Wendle Cook, wasn't immediately returned.

The mother of the two children a naive and delusional immigrant was being manipulated into seeking Mr. Villalobos's therapy through her pro bono attorney Robert Machen ( later Convicted in a Federal Court for 3 counts of felony acts and jailed for a year) among the mother's wild claims was that the child's father was a Espionage agent wanted by the United States and the Soviet Union for multiple accounts of National Security crimes in both countries.

Mr. Villalobs was provided evidence that the mother was delusional and had sued ( via her attorney Robert Machen) another psychologist Dr. Charles Burt who concluded that the mother was paranoid delusional.
Mr. Villalobos buried evidence that he was provided and started manipulating the children in closed therapy biweekly for over a year - with the intention of manipulating the children.

The children rebelled at Mr. Villalobos, refused to see him and showed resentment at his manipulations, to which Mr. Villalobos concocted a bizarre theory that the children are really showing their anger at their dad for the abuse by treating him as their dad.

Counselor indicted on charges of sexual assault of 3-year-old patient

An Albuquerque clinical psychologist has been indicted on charges of rape and sexual contact of a then-3-year-old patient during a counseling appointment at Samaritan Counseling Center that occurred two years ago.
Dr. Luis Vargas, 66, was booked and released from the county jail Wednesday after a grand jury indicted him on March 13.
His attorney said late Thursday that Vargas’ patients are often troubled and prone to making false allegations.
                                             Dr. Luis Vargas
According to a police report, officers were called to the counseling center near Lomas and University NE in June 2015 after a woman reported that her granddaughter told her the psychologist touched her bottom and her genitals and spit in her mouth.
The woman said she had taken her granddaughter to the counseling appointment, and as they were leaving the little girl shouted “marrano” (pig) at Vargas. The woman said she asked her granddaughter why she had been rude to the doctor, and the young girl made the allegations, according to the report.
The girl went to a sexual abuse medical evaluation and provided more details of a sexual assault.
When officers talked to Vargas, he said the girl “was a client for two sessions” but he wanted to talk with his attorney before being interviewed. The attorney refused to schedule an interview, according to the report.
In September 2015, the police department forwarded the case to the District Attorney’s Office for review and possible prosecution.
It’s unclear why it took a year and a half for Vargas to be charged in the case.
Former Bernalillo County District Attorney Kari Brandenburg left office in January. Christopher Moore, a prosecutor for new District Attorney Raúl Torrez, said their office felt it was important to move forward with the case.
“There’s a little girl who said she was touched,” Moore said. “If it was your child, wouldn’t you want something done?”
A spokesman for the district attorney said there was a separate allegation in 2013 involving a boy, but the case was not indicted.
Vargas’ attorney Marc Lowry said his client is a trusted clinician who treats difficult cases of child abuse and occasionally the children transfer the blame for their trauma onto him.
“The allegation made here against Dr. Vargas is the product of sad, deeply disturbed patient who has been raised in an extremely chaotic home,” Lowry said in an emailed statement Thursday.
He said the 2013 allegation was also false and made by a troubled boy with a history of making “false allegations of sexual abuse.”
The Samaritan Counseling Center did not return a phone call asking if Vargas is still employed at the center, and it’s unclear if he continued to work as a counselor after the allegation.
He is listed in the University of New Mexico directory as an emeritus associate professor in the Department of Psychology and as a psychologist for programs for children and adolescents.
A UNM spokeswoman couldn’t immediately say if he was currently teaching at the school.

Therapist accused of sexually abusing 2 girls

Gilberto Suero, a clinical social worker and psychotherapist, is accused of abusing two girls during therapy sessions in his office on Richmond Road.(Staten Island Advance/Jan Somma-Hammel)


                                                      Gilberto Suero

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- A Dongan Hills psychotherapist stands accused of sexually abusing two girls who were his patients, according to police.
Gilberto Suero, 49, who claims to be a licensed clinical social worker, was taken into police custody at his office at 1272 Richmond Road at about 5 p.m. on Friday, according to a spokeswoman for the NYPD's Deputy Commissioner of Public Information.
The girls were victimized during therapy sessions in Suero's office, according to police.
Suero is accused of touching a 12-year-old girl on her inner thigh and buttocks and attempting to kiss her on April 6.
A then 8-year-old girl was allegedly touched numerous times on the breast and buttocks underneath her clothing including in July 2014 as reported to police on May 3 of this year.
Suero is listed on various career websites as a New York State licensed clinical social worker who graduated from Adelphi University.
He faces various charges that include sexual abuse of a victim under age 13 by a person over age 21, acting in a manner injurious to a child and forcible touching.
Public records indicate that he is being held at Rikers Island and is due back in Criminal Court on Thursday.

Staten Island therapist charged with sexually abusing girls as young 8 years old

A Staten Island therapist was charged with sexually abusing a 13-year-old girl and a pair of sisters — ages 8 and 10 — and cops suspect there may be additional victims.
Court records provided a glimpse of Gilberto Suero’s alleged sick spree of perversion that landed him behind bars.
During a Dec. 23 session at his Richmond Road office in Dongan Hills, Suero sat the 10-year-old girl on his lap and kissed her on the cheek, court papers show. On the same day, the 8-year-old was also fondled. The girl told cops she was groped while she and the suspect watched videos, sources said.
The foster mother of the two younger girls contacted the Seaman Society, the organization that paid Suero to provide therapy for those girls, on May 3 to complain about the therapist. The girls’ biological father was then contacted because his permission was needed to conduct physical exams of the children.

The father, it turned out, is also a patient of Suero, sources said. In a rage, he called the suspect, who denied any wrongdoing. But during a controlled call set up by police, Suero told the foster mother that he put the 8-year-old on his lap during a movie and that he may have touched her by accident, sources said.
Police in late April learned of the 13-year-old girl, who told her mother Suero touched her during her therapy sessions. The teen, who just recently started seeing Suero to deal with self-esteem issues, said the suspect didn’t do anything wrong the first two sessions because her mother was present. The next two times she went alone. He allegedly fondled her during a session on April 6.
“You are so beautiful,” he said, according to court papers.
During the next session, on April 20, Suero tried to kiss her on the lips, sources said. She said she pulled away, but he still managed to kiss her on the nose — and tried to get her to exchange photos, according to court papers and sources.
Suero, 49, was arrested Friday and charged with felony sex abuse, plus misdemeanors for sex abuse, forcible touching and acting in a manner injurious to a child. He’s being held on $50,000 bail. His shady past includes an arrest for selling drugs, sources said Monday.

A woman neighbors identified as Suero’s wife refused to comment outside the family’s home.
“I don’t know him,” she said.
Neighbors said Suero has lived there for about seven years.  “His kids play with my kids,” said a neighbor who requested anonymity. "He’s such a nice guy. It’s unbelievable.”

Seaman Society officials declined to comment, citing the ongoing investigation. The Administration for Children’s Services, which hired the agency, said it is investigating.
“We are deeply disturbed by these allegations, and are working with the NYPD to support this investigation,” an ACS spokesman said in a statement. “We are also working closely with our contract provider to identify and ensure the safety of any child with whom this individual may have been in contact.”
Suero has four arrests — three are sealed and the other dates back to 1990, 
when he was charged in a Manhattan drug case, with use, sale and possession of narcotics.
“There’s a lot of kids over here, so it’s really not good,” said a woman who manages a nearby business. “I’m very surprised. You hear about stuff like this, but it’s just very close. It’s uncomfortable for me. Young children — boys or girls, I mean, you’re a grown man. It’s pretty disgusting.”

Victorville therapist accused of sexually abusing developmentally disabled patient

Gregory Harmeling, 45, a licensed marriage and family counselor, was arrested Thursday, Dec. 29, 2016, on suspicion of sexual assault involving a developmentally disabled patient in Victorville.

VICTORVILLE >> A licensed therapist is accused of sexually abusing a mentally disabled woman during one of their sessions in his Victorville office, and detectives feel more victims may be out there, officials said.
Gregory Harmeling, 45, of Victorville was arrested late Thursday morning on suspicion of sexual penetration with a foreign object and abuse of a dependent adult, San Bernardino County sheriff’s booking records show. Harmeling has since been released after posting $100,000 bail.
Investigators with the sheriff’s Victorville Station learned the victim had gone to a counseling session with Harmeling in early December at his office at 15000 Seventh St. He also has an office at 1406 Bailey Ave. in Needles, officials said.
During her second visit, Harmeling allegedly began brushing the woman’s hair and eventually began touching her in an inappropriate manner, according to a Sheriff’s Department news release.
Harmeling reportedly locked the door to his office, “pushed the victim on to her back, climbed on top of her and sexually assaulted her,” the statement read.
Investigators say Harmeling continued for several minutes despite the victim protesting the attack.
Detectives were able to gather information supporting the allegations made by the victim, according to authorities. Detectives believe other victims may exist.
His profile page on Psychology Today lists Harmeling’s areas of expertise: “I specialize in working with groups such as the LGBT youth and adults, victims of crime, and foster care children and adolescents.”
Anyone with information about this investigation can call Detective Dana Weinberg of the Victorville Station at 760-243-1989. Callers wishing to remain anonymous can call the We-Tip Hotline at 1-800-78CRIME (27463), or can leave information on the We-Tip website at www.wetip.com.

J.A.I.L for Judges. Judicial Accountability Initiative Law

The Judicial Accountability Initiative Law, J.A.I.L., is a single-issue national grassroots organization designed to end the rampant and pervasive judicial corruption in the legal system of the United States. J.A.I.L. recognizes this can be achieved only through making the Judicial Branch of government answerable and accountable to an entity other than itself. At this time it isn't, resulting in the judiciary's arbitrary abuse of the doctrine of judicial immunity, leaving the People without recourse when their inherent rights are violated by judges.

"Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men."
~ Lord Acton, in a letter to Bishop Mandell Creighton, 1887.
The Chicago Office of Professional Standards is an example of what happens when a government entity is answerable only to itself. This agency, which is responsible for disciplining police officers was not effective when the head of its office reported to the police superintendent. So this was changed. The office head now reports to the mayor and the agency has been given new subpoena powers. The current system of disciplining judges, a system that is also answerable only to itself, is in a similar state of ineffectiveness.

Soon after the founding of our Republic the Founding Fathers realized there was insufficient check on the Judicial Branch of government:

"The constitution, on this hypothesis, is a mere thing of wax in the hands of the judiciary, which they may twist and shape into any form they please. It should be remembered, as an axiom of eternal truth in politics, that whatever power in any government is independent, is absolute also; in theory only, at first, while the spirit of the people is up, but in practice, as fast as that relaxes. Independence can be trusted nowhere but with the people in mass. They are inherently independent of all but moral law."
~ Thomas Jefferson, letter to Judge Spencer Roane, September 6, 1819. "The Writings of Thomas Jefferson," edited by Andrew A. Lipscomb, vol. 15, p. 213 (1904).

In a government by the People and for the People, it is to the People that accountability must be enforced. With the passage of J.A.I.L. accountability to the People in mass will be achieved by independent Special Grand Juries dedicated to this purpose. These People, who are not officers of any other branch of government or members of the Bar, will be publicly drawn by lottery for limited terms. Complaints will come before them only after every other legal remedy has been attempted. They shall have the power to strip those judges of their protection of judicial immunity who are the subject of complaints for criminal acts, and to investigate, indict, and initiate criminal prosecution of wayward judges. This system of special grand juries will be an irrevocable return to an era before 1960 when grand juries did have this authority.

The granting of such power to these Special Grand Juries can only be accomplished through amendment to the Constitutions of each state. Since there is a need for these juries on the federal level there is also a provision for a federal J.A.I.L. Bill. Since there are powerful vested interests in the status quo, and because it is human nature for men always to seek more power and against it to surrender any of it, passage of more than ineffectual cosmetic reform will require the initiative process.

J.A.I.L. is intended to prevent the following acts of judicial malfeasance:

Any deliberate violation of law
Fraud or conspiracy
Intentional violation of due process of law
Deliberate disregard of material facts
Judicial acts without jurisdiction
Blocking of a lawful conclusion of a case
Any deliberate violation of the state or federal Constitutions
Once passed, the unconstitutional doctrine of Judicial Immunity applied unconditionally will no longer shield a judge guilty of any such misconduct.
Some examples of the above misconduct J.A.I.L. addresses are ignored laws, ignored evidence, eminent domain abuse, confiscation of property without due process, probate fraud, secret dockets, falsifications of court records, misapplication of law, and other abuses. When passed decisions in family court will be governed by law rather than the vested interests of the state. The unconstitutional doctrine of Judicial Immunity applied unconditionally will be eliminated by instituting a fair and effective means for its removal in cases that merit it.

The need for the passage of J.A.I.L. is urgent. Lives and finances are being ruined, properties are being lost, innocent people are going to jail, and families are being torn apart and destroyed.

Attorney Richard Fine has been in jail since March 4, 2009 because of his discovery of illegal payoffs by the Los Angeles Board of Supervisors to Los Angeles County Superior Court Judges as annual salary bonuses. These payoffs began in the late 1980's. Because of Richard Fine a hurried attempt to make these payments retroactively legal was made with the passage of California Senate Bill SBx2-11. Had J.A.I.L. been in effect since the beginning of this payoff scandal, those affected by decisions tainted by these payoffs would have had a Special Grand Jury of twenty-five independent citizens. who represent the people in mass, to present their case before after all appeals for justice had been exhausted. What is more, a criminal affidavit satisfying the Fourth Amendment, could be written up against all L. A. County judges and presented to the prosecutor, giving him 120 days to begin prosecution. Upon failure to do so, this affidavit could then be presented to this Special Grand Jury for an indictment of all L. A. County Judges, and a prosecution begun by the Special Prosecutor provided for within the measure. Upon conviction, a trial jury, not a judge, would determine the criminal sentencing for each and every judge convicted. The passage of J.A.I.L. will provide a positive means of justice for Richard Fine and for every other judicial victim for past and present judicial transgressions. It will make impossible the corruptive influences purchased by Los Angeles Board of Supervisors from the L. A. County Superior Court judges.

"He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries."
~Thomas Jefferson, "The Declaration of Independence."
Dr. Les Sachs, a writer, journalist, and published expert on American corruption now living abroad, wrote in his article Portrait of America's Legal System:
"The reality is that the United States of America, which proclaims itself the 'land of freedom,' has the most dishonest, dangerous and crooked legal system of any developed nation. Legal corruption is covering America like a blanket."
As time passes these problems will only grow worse manifesting all the more the need for the passage of J.A.I.L.

"JAIL4Judges is the best hope of a practical program for restoring justice in the USA."
~Dr. Les Sachs.
With passage of J.A.I.L., the People will finally be assured of receiving Due Process of Law in all court proceedings which will include the requirement that judges:
Address all facts presented by the complaining party according to the evidence shown on the record;
Consider opposing facts and evidence as against, and relating to, that of the complaining or moving party (not just arbitrarily superseding plaintiff's facts and evidence);
Apply the appropriate law to the facts determined to be relevant and material to the case according to the evidence of record (considering all evidence of both sides without partiality or bias);
Submit written findings of fact and conclusions of law in all actions and proceedings-- including a written explanation for motion dispositions-- to legally support the judicial decision reached;
Bring the case to a lawful conclusion in a timely fashion as specified by law.
There will be no more arbitrary decision-making by judges.

This Due Process of Law will provide the People Redress of Grievances against their government in an open, honest and complete manner without any appearance of impropriety. The People's unalienable rights to Life, Liberty, and The Pursuit of Happiness, which include but are not limited to:
The Right to acquire, possess, and protect personal and real property;
The Right to be secure from intrusion; and
The Right to privacy
will no longer be "alienated" by government.

The Bill of Rights will be enforced for each individual, providing "Liberty and Justice for All."
The J.A.I.L. initiatives have been customized for each state and can be viewed at the web pages for the individual states and for Washington DC for the federal version.

J.A.I.L. is the People, providing the means by which they can carry out their right and duty to restore the rightful station of government by holding the judiciary, as the intended guardian of their rights against arbitrary power, accountable to the People under constitutional law.
To those who have an ear to hear, let them hear:
J.A.I.L. is - the Common Denominator of all Organizations
J.A.I.L. is - the Unifier and the Cause of all Causes
J.A.I.L. is - the One size fits All
J.A.I.L. is - the Redress and the Enforcement
J.A.I.L. is - the Heart of all Accountability
J.A.I.L. is - the Missing Ingredient of our Constitution.
