   Check out this Antioch Police Department California Case which recently settled out of court.

   Marvetia Lynn Richarson v. City of Antioch,722 F.Supp.2d 1133 (N.D. Cal 2010) made published case law see WESTLAW.
   A copy of the ruling can also be found on the United States Norther District Court Pacer system, dated July 13, 2010
   This case stongly suggest that Antioch Police Department are commiting criminal miscondt “fabricating” police reports. In the Richarson case there was audiotape which proved that information listed in the Police Repoert did not occur. Antioch Police Officer Santiago E. Martinez Jr.(now terminated) indicaed in his police report that Richardson was uncooperative and “combative” beore and after Richarson was “taser’. However, the auditape reflects that Richardson was cooperative when ansewering the Officers questions and there were no sounds of any type of an “alleged stuggle” whatsoever!

   Note Richarson at the time of the incident, was an off-duty San Francisco Police Inspector who owned her Antioch residence.The auditape also captured the Officer making statements suggesting that she was an “alleged homeowner” possibly on Section 8 housing.

   On July 12, 2011 a Contra Costa Court Judge , Judge Trevor White ruled that the Antioch Police Officers were not acting in a legal manner when they made force entry into Richardson home on 7/7/2007. Addtionally hinting to the “audiotape” the Judge ruled that Richardon did not violated penal code 148A P.C Resistng/Delaying Arrest.Thus, Richarsons arrest record will be “expunged” and Richarson is found “Factually Innocent”.

   It appears not all the pending lawsuits against Antioch P.D are BOGUS!

   Are Antioch Police Officers making false arrests on persons of color for the alleged violation 148 (A)(1)penal code?

   On 7-12-2011 during Marvetia Lynn Richardsons expungment case with Contra Costa Judge Trevor White the, District Attorney did not want to call the Antioch Police Officers involved in Richarsons arrest to testify. Especially after Richardsons private Attorney gave Judge Trevor White the Federal Court deposition transcripts and a copy of the audio tape which contradicts former Antioch Police Officer Santiago Martinez Jr and Sgt Thomas Furnmanns police report on 6-7-2007.

   Of course the audio tape did not match up with the Police Report explaining the alleaged incident in Richardsons home.

   So Marvetia Lynn Richardson was vendicated in criminal court and was found to be “FACTUALLY INNOCENT”. In return Antioch Police Officer Santiago E. Martinez Jr was fired from the force.Im just wonder how many innocent persons are in California State Prison was a result of Officer Santiago E. Martinez questionable police work? So once again, it appears that the Antioch Police Officers are engaging in criminal conductie., perjury- lying on their police reports and falsying targeting people of color like Marvetia Lynn Richardson.

   Note, as a result of this questionable Antioch P.D conduct Richardson recieved an out of court settlement from Anioch Police Department in (California) for approximately $750,000 for Civil Rights Violations and etc in Decemember 2010.

   So the true question is why is the Contra Costa District Attorneys Office turning a blind eye when Antioch Police Officer are submitting false/questionable police reports?

   Two months ago the APD was called to my house by a 22 year old woman who was in Santa Barbra, Noelle Shofner. Noelle also happened to be the daughter of a retired officer Kenny Shofner. She stated that I had drugs and guns in my home, and that I was suicidal and ready to take on the police. Noelle had a history of suicide attempts, and drug abuse. Sense I had filed a restraining order against this woman, because of death threats made by her, harassment after this incident, and threats of her cop father “breaking down my door and shooting my dog with his buddies”. As a result of her false claims I unknowingly had the Antioch police hiding in front of my home with guns drawn.
   I had no idea they were in front of my home, I walked outside with a dog leash in my hand and locked the door. As I turned around and stepped off my porch they popped out from behind my truck and garbage cans with guns drawn. The police yelled at me to get on the ground or they would “blow me away!” . I had my hands in the air as my dog growled at the police, but was sitting because I ordered him to. I stated that I was unarmed and to please not shoot, they proceeded to yell at me to get on the ground or they would shoot me. I begged one officer to not shoot my dog, and that’s just what he did. The dog was shot in my front yard, I was tackled, cuffed, and then they took the keys out of my pocket without permission and went through my home. I was put into the back of a police car with country music blaring loud, as I yelled through the glass window to get my dog to a hospital.
   The police first priority was to ransack through my home, not to even find where my dog crawled off to, and died. My neighbor saw what was happening and ran outside to find my dog, she did and he died in her arms. The police forced me to get strapped into an ambulance, I did calmly as I realized the painful truth, I had no rights as an American.
   The police exited my home with no drugs, and an war relic pistol from 1944. They asked for the combination to my safe as they loaded me strapped on a gurney into an ambulance. All my neighbors watched the spectacle, and I refused to give the combination even though they threatened to break the safe open if I didn’t give the code.
   The end result was they released me from the physic ward at county hospital after I let them test my blood. I had no criminal charges, no drugs in my blood or my home, no 51/50 , and my dog had been murdered. I could not even pick up the body, they kept the dog for evidence and instructed me that if I wanted I could pay 200 dollars for his ashes. The dog was almost 2 years old ,and used to play with my neighbors kids, they were devastated.
   The Antioch Police department records office told me they would have a police report within a few weeks for me. After 2 months of requesting a police report they finally told me I would need a subpoena to get the report. Without filing a lawsuit I can’t even get the case number from them. All this happened on my property and I can’t even get a police report from a public office whom I pay for with tax dollars. All together it would cost me about 750 dollars to peruse this legally. Lawyers call this a loosing winning case, you spend a year or more in court, win! Then most likely walk away with a few dollars. Thanks for reading this, I hope your web page can make a difference in the police brutality and corruption that seems like a routine for these bad apples.
