Common Law Grand Jury Demands Silver by Fax, Accuses Enemies of Treason

The fantasy-grand jury league continues its game-playing around the state. Stephanie Strong sends the media an update implying that her fellow vigilante-litigationists are using as a guide the tactics of a New York group that pretends to be the "Unified New York Common Law Grand Jury."

Included in Strong's e-mail are two writs of mandamus, sent last week to trouble New York Judge Charles M. Tailleur and court clerk Michelle Carrol. There two poor folks stand accused of high treason against the King (the people? Elvis? what's the difference?). UNCLGJ (Uncle Gidge? Who knows, since the writ is filed anonymously, with an inscrutable signature from its "Administrator") demands that Clerk Carrol respond directly and not talk to any lawyers (all conspirators against the King). UNCLGJ orders Judge Tailleur to pay a fine of 100 ounces of silver. Apparently the judge is supposed to fax that silver to UNCLGJ, since UNCLGJ's writs provide no contact information other than fax number 888-891-8977.

The common law grand jury movement is a dangerous combination of stupidity and terrorism. UNCLGJ blows a smokescreen of quotes and arcane legal citations, makes absurd demands in all capital letters, and intimidates people with accusations of treason, the sort of absolute charge that inflames passions and rouses less thoughtful adherents (yes, the rubes showing up to shadowy weekend meetings to forward their delusions of tri-corner hat granduer) to dangerous action.

Using UNCLGJ as a guide is the last thing we want South Dakota citizens doing. Stephanie, please tell your neighbors to drop this fake grand jury posturing and concentrate on honest, practical citizen activism. Call your legislators, lobby in Pierre, write letters to the editor, run for office... but for Pete's sake, don't run around calling public servants traitors and shaking them down for silver.

    In the USA when people talk about the King, it has to be Elvis, he will always be King.

    It would be hilarious if the members of this common law grand jury were indicted by a real grand jury for domestic terrorism and making terrorist threats against elected representative of our government?

    That is exactly where they are headed with this nonsense.

    ALL CAPS? The horror of it all! Better give them what they want; they obviously mean business...or something.

    This is a bunch of every day people that have found why America is in the hole its is in. Our founding law was put in place to to protect the people but many dont know and the attorneys cannot practice it because they will get disbarred, do you trust all attornys? Can you imagine law of common sense? using the Constitution we can remove all corrupt politicians and special interest. Contact me for a interview any time. Here is the case that no attorny or judge can counter this if any one can lest post it here. look at US v Williams in this link http://www.nationallibertyalliance.org/us-supreme-court-cases

    God Bless

    A good link of the case law that shows all the people in America are sovereign, many dont know it means king. http://www.1215.org/lawnotes/lawnotes/sovreign.htm . A popular term people say is that they have constitutional rights, nothing gives you rights, if they did it would be called a privilege. You are born with rights and nothing regulates your rights unless you caused injury to someone. You own the Constitution, its a law document that regulates the government and protect you. Our founders did not want us to be abused by any authority so they made us all Kings. These kings tho are accountable for any action. So if you, a king have a issue with another King you open your court and pull the other king in, the defendant now has a choice, make a deal with you the plaintiff or have a jury of his peers to decides if he is liable for anything. Its a crazy concept. Supposedly a home burglary was a death sentence in the 1850s using this law. Many reference to the true common law are removed over 100 years ago. Common law was considered un written law, if harm was done to you , you made the law by taking one to court and a jury would have to unanimously agree with you. There was no crime unless there was a victim. No attornys just common sense, would that work in today's world?

    This article is a complete hatchet job on the true meaning of justice!!! If, as a reporter, you did your job, and not beholden to your editor or publisher you would kindly review the supreme court ruling by judge scalia:
    http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/90-1972.ZO.html
    here he outlines the validity of the common law grand jury for all to read. the only folks complaining are the are those whose fraud on the people are exposed. self serving judges and prosecutors are scared silly the people will wake up to their fraud and have them removed from office as is outlined by law. do you truly believe that those brave people who fought for our freedom back in the late 1700's would be so stupid as to allow the "power mad despots" to take our natural, unalienable rights from us ever again??? true, the people went to sleep, but they are awaking and the corrupt tyrants are scared to death. this is the true mission of the common law grand jury, we know it, they know it. and as you become aware you will know it. we the people, are tired of judicial tyranny under the color of law. statutes apply not to "we the people" but, to corporate citizens which we are not!!! kindly check out this link which is from judge scalia and no judge or prosecutor has the authority to over rule. thank you and may God Bless You in your search for the truth. Then I kindly ask you to print a correction.

    To caheidelberger Please go to http://www.NationalLibertyAlliance.com to learn more about where we are as a dysfunctional country created by “the Establishment”, our Elected Officials and Appointed Agents Voted in by the Minority of 25% of the Voters.

    Rebutting the Status Quo. Indoctrination VS Education is the Realization against Fiction VS Fact. Where do you stand on the Issue? Tyrants are afraid of “We Are the People” because we Stand for “Truth, Justice, and Fair Play” and we will take back that has be stolen from US, Sovereign Citizens of our respective States.

    “We Are the People” have been denied “Truth, Justice, and Fair Play” for too long for too many Decades. “We Are the People”, have been made “Slaves” to this State of United States of Incorporation. 98 Percent of Humans, “Earthbounders” via Napoleon Hill’s “Outwitting the Devil” are owned by the Devil through Education, Government, and Religion Institutions via Our Drifting into “Ignorance, Fear, and the People not thinking for themselves”

    The most dangerous people on this Green Earth to the Devil are People who are “Enlighten, Fearless and Think for themselves”. Where do You Stand or Part of: 98% or 2%?

    I know I am with the 2%.

    agenda 21/mark o' the beast folks. cats and dogs living together, real wrath o' god type stuff....

  9. Les 2014.01.09

    Yea Roger, hilarious. About as hilarious as calling Maddville clics terrorists for some of the statements you've made. I'm rollin on the floor.

  10. caheidelberger Post author | 2014.01.09

    At least one of these clippy patriots is willing to put his real name to his arguments. Come on, fellas! Why not charge me with treason for bad reporting and make me fax you some silver?

    I have nothing to correct. The common law grand jury movement is bunk blown about by fantasists who lack the guts to dedicate their lawbook prooftexting to practical policy.

  11. Roger Cornelius 2014.01.09

    Les,

    A little clarity please. What are you talking about?

    It's a bit puzzling that these jury people would be attacking Cory, if there is a blogger in South Dakota that is in search of truth and justice it is the Madville Times.

  12. Patriot 2014.01.09

    A good audio lecture of our founding law http://www.1215.org/lawnotes/lawnotes/lectures/introduction/04-2-introduction-2-common-law.mp3
    Regarding the statement that the common law grand jury movement is bunk blown about by fantasists who lack the guts to dedicate their lawbook prooftexting to practical policy. Many of us have filed actions and motions using this law. The judges are in contempt because they dismiss our motions or actions before we are able to get a jury, in their paperwork they say rules the politicians make ( that is not law), over ride the Constitution and supreme court decisions. Prove to me that the supreme court ruling by judge Scalia: Is not true, not practical and a fantasy, your making a statement with no law to back it up!

    My statement was based upon freedom of speech. Roger would find it hilarious to see others called terrorist for their speech. No charges on you Cory, our SD media would be toast without you. .
    .
    Now prove up and find out why your party is hiding? Does it take a GOP to ask the tough questions?

  14. Roger Cornelius 2014.01.09

    Les,

    I didn't realize my party was hiding. "Party party, come out from wherever you"?

    You tell me Les, why does it take the GOP to ask the tough questions? Actually, I didn't realize they were.

    Cory, a Democrat I presume, has been asking the hardest questions about the GOED/EB-5 funds that disappeared and your party is in hiding, I mean not answering.

    Here's a question for you Les, which political party in South Dakota can make 60 million dollars disappear and not be held accountable for it?

  15. Les 2014.01.09

    Bring your one power player dem to the table with a tough question Roger. Bernie sure as heck hasn't asked anything of anyone that I've heard or Cory would have had it front page..
    .
    Nelson, who you'd all like to support so you could beat him into submission and put a no name Wyland into office, has asked questions.
    .
    From experience I know one thing. If folks bring out the guns when asked questions, you're getting close to the infection!

  16. Roger Cornelius 2014.01.09

    Les,
    After some consideration about Democrats in hiding, it could be that Democrats don't have to do anything at this point. Most likely Democrats are awaiting the results of the federal grand jury and investigations.

    The 2014 election is still in the distance and the state's Republicans are still in the destructive mode by not answering those hard questions or opening investigations.

    When the opportunity is right and Democrats have all the material they need, they will strike, count on it.

    Les, have you asked those hard questions of your own party?

  17. Les 2014.01.09

    Are you awake Roger?

  18. Roger Cornelius 2014.01.09

    I'm in here Les.

    Take your meds yet?

    It is a shame that the reporter of this article is totally clueless with regards to law, must be his brainwashing from birth that has given him his status of ignoramus. Or, it could be that he is not an ignoramus but instead is a minion to the corporate media. The Common Law Grand Jury is a fact of law, try reading something other than your usual jughead comics Caheidelbrergermen, what kind of name is that anyway your article along with your name seems to be something out of the three stooges episode. What are you going to feature next in your improper use of syntax?? Justin Bieber maybe that's your speed.

  20. caheidelberger Post author | 2014.03.23

    Wow, length name as support for indicting a report. That sounds about as logical as anything else Strong and UNCLGJ concoct in their jurisprudential fantasy league. Maybe, Gabriel, you should have a common law grand jury bring me up on charges of treason and too many syllables. Then we could have a real trial to establish the facts here... assuming you can find the law that authorizes such a vigilante group to assemble, rule, and mete out legal punishment.

    I await the subpoena. Be sure you spell my name right. Cory Allen Heidelberger.

  21. Roger Cornelius 2014.03.24

    What is a shame here is that those that think this grand jury stuff is legal, don't have the courage to move forward on it.

    If they believe what they are saying, they should have the courage to "just do it", what is stopping you.

    Instead we get lengthy meaningless rants and no action.

  22. Les 2014.03.24

    """Instead we get lengthy meaningless rants and no action.""" ;)
