REF: PIU 216881 Letter Dated 5-29-08
June 4, 2008
Subject: Felony Obstruction of Justice By San Diego County District Attorneys & Oceanside Police Officers.
Attorney General Brown & Ms. Vega,
I wish someone would take the time to read the documentation and properly investigate before looking for the closest trash can to get rid of a criminal complaint and the associated work. When you want to cover up something, you always make reference to investigations that were never done. It looks good on paper if no one looks to close.
THE ISSUE IS NOT WETHER A DISTRICT ATTORNEY OR POLICE OFFICERS HAS THE AUTHORITY, BASED ON EVIDENCE, TO DECIDE IF AN ARREST OR PROSECUTION SHOULD BE PURSUED.
THE ISSUE IS, CAN THE DA AND THE POLICE LEGALLY LOCK THE DOOR, AND PUT UP A DO NOT DISTURBE SIGN, BEFORE THE CITIZEN EVEN ARRIVES TO FILE A CRIMINAL COMPLAINT AGAINST AN INSURANCE COMPANY AND IT’S EMPLOYEES. ESPECIALLY WHEN THE RED CARPET IS ROLLED OUT BY THE SAME AGENCIES FOR INSURANCE COMPANY CRIMINAL COMPLAINTS AGAINST CITIZENS.
When the District Attorney’s Office and the Oceanside Police Department:
- Will not review evidence,
- Will not agree to meet with the victim or witnesses,
- Will not accept a criminal complaint or investigate in any way,
- Will actively coerces the victim, under color of authority, to drop the complaint and go away, simply because the suspects work for an Insurance Company, and they don’t even know what Penal Code Sections are being discussed.
- And subsequent Misconduct complaints filed about the obstructions are also obstructed and buried to cover up criminal conduct committed by peace officers and attorneys, while telling really stupid juvenile lies that would not fool a 3rd grader.
- This is felony criminal obstruction of justice as it always has been.
If that is not bad enough, the head of the insurance fraud division, Assistant District Attorney, David Lattuca, states in writing (Letter Attached Dated 2-14-08), that the DA’s office will not accept criminal complaints from citizens, against insurance companies, because they don’t have enough staff to investigate. That is a clear criminal statement of obstruction of justice for a district attorney and officer of the court. When the DA cannot legally get rid of a citizen, pushing for an investigation, the DA forces citizens onto police departments knowing that the police with get rid of the problem, because the DA’s, are already on record with the police as not wanting the extra work load, as stated by Mr. Lattuca.
And it gets even worse. Mr. Lattuca further states that special funding grants for his insurance fraud division, have restrictions that do not allow the DA to take criminal insurance fraud complaints from citizens, against insurance companies. This is the same District Attorney’s insurance fraud division that aggressively investigates and prosecutes citizens every day, based on criminal complaints from Insurance Companies, for exactly the same criminal violations.
When did the San Diego County District Attorney’s and the Oceanside Police Department become a criminal protection organization for Insurance Companies? And, of course, the only help the DA can suggest is to advises the citizen to go hire an attorney, just like the Attorney General, and the Oceanside Police, and the California Department of Insurance, etc. You would thing that all of our public law enforcement was on referral commissions with civil attorneys, the way you all push citizens to drop criminal complaints and hire attorneys. Unfortunately, only about ten percent of California citizens can afford our civil legal system, if that, but then you already knew that. So what about the other 90% of citizens that are criminally defrauded by insurance companies.
That special funding Mr. Lattuca referenced. It turns out that funding comes from the California Department of Insurance (CDI). The same agency that is suppose to protect consumers from criminal fraud by insurance companies. According to Mr. Lattuca’s statements, The San Diego County District Attorney’s Office is being paid, by the CDI, to obstruct criminal complaints from citizens against Insurance Companies.
A little additional investigations discloses that the CDI also has insurance fraud investigation offices through out the state, including San Diego County. The CDI fraud investigation offices also have the restriction to only accept and investigate criminal complaints from insurance companies against citizens. Even when you send the CDI a complaint with evidence of criminal conduct, and a request to investigate as such, the investigation never occurs, because even CDI is actively obstructing criminal complaints against insurance companies. We use to call this obstruction of justice, conspiracy, bribery, and government corruption. It appears the CDI is more of an Insurance Company protection agency, than a consumer protection agency.
Over 400 pages of documentation was sent to the California Department of Insurance, covering a 12-month investigation of Wawanesa Insurance. The documentation contained multiple felony criminal violations of CPC 550(b), not to mention numerous violations of the insurance codes, in writing, signed by insurance company supervisors. CDI sent a copy to Wawanesa Insurance. What do you think it took for Wawanesa Insurance to get the CDI file closed, without a investigation? All Wawanesa had to do was write a short letter, denying they had done anything wrong, and CDI immediately closed the file. CDI stated that they could do nothing, since Wawanesa disagreed with the complaint (Copy Attached). The entire process took less than two weeks. However, the one page form letter did suggest the an attorney be retained. I don’t think I have ever heard of any of these agencies advising an insurance company to go away and hire an attorney in place of a criminal complaint against a citizen.
Not one Police Officer or District Attorney I have contacted, could remember, in their entire careers, accepting or investigating a criminal complaint from a citizen, against an insurance company or it’s employees. Over 100 years of combined legal experience, and not one case, they could recall. When was the last time you heard about the CDI prosecuting employees of any major insurance company for criminal fraud. I cannot find a single record of such an occurrence, and yet every day we read about arrest and prosecution of citizens based on Insurance Company complaints.
So, please tell me. What government agency, a citizen can go to, and file a felony criminal complaint when an Insurance Company criminally defrauds his family? I would really like to know. There does not seem to be anybody left. If this extensive criminal obstruction is not an issue for the Attorney Generals Office, then it is hard to imagine what would be an issue!
Who ever is reviewing this letter, you should thing about what I have stated above. If you have an insurance policy, you are already a victim, just like the rest of California citizens. To say I am mad as hell at Wawanesa insurance company for criminally defrauding my family is nothing compared to how I fell about Police Officers, District Attorneys, and public agencies involved in corruption and indifference. So I will start with whatever criminal complaints I can get against police officers and DA’s, at whatever local, county, state, or federal agency that will listen. I will run newspaper warning ads, a web site will be developed and set up with a regular mass e-mail warning system, and list of public officials that have ignored this extensive criminal assault on citizens legal protections will be posted and aggressively distributed, and that list is going to get longer.
