Paid for by Friends of Barry

His Prosecutors:   Former Somerset County Prosecutor and convicted felon Nicholas Bissell and co-conspirator, Special Prosecutor Greg Barto.   Bissell, in order to obtain the indictment against the defendant, Mr. Weinstein, used the same tactics as aired on your show by providing the Grand Jury with falsified documents, perjured testimony, fraud, and trained his sub-ordinates in the Somerset County Prosecutors office to do the same. Participation in what can only be called "Completely Contrived Trumped Up Charges" by prosecutors Bissell and his subordinate, Craig Barto. Their dastardly deeds were then covered up by others.

His Judge: The Judge in the case was Joyce Munkacsi.   Judge Munkacsi was a defendant in another case filed by Mr. Weinstein.  Imagine, the judge is also an adversary in another case.  She refused to recuse herself and let the case be heard by an unbiased judge.

His Attorney:  Kathleen Gayles of the Public Defender's Office.  According to signed affidavits filed with the court, she was intoxicated during the trial.

The Location of the Trial:  A kangaroo court in Somerset County, New Jersey.

During his trial Mr. Weinstein was:

1. Denied all witnesses, including an International Diplomat to France
2. Denied all evidence, including the Grand Jury Transcript which was used to indict him.   According to the Judge, "It was irrelevant."
3. Denied all Discovery for over 2 years.
4. Held in contempt of court for exercising his Constitutional Rights in a manner supported by the U.S. Supreme Court.
5. Prevented from facing his accuser and witnesses against him.
6. Held in contempt of court for claiming his 1st Amendment Right to speak freely in his own defense.
7. When he was questioning Detective Lewis with the Franklin Township Police Dept. about "police officers being able to lie under oath with immunity" (see Biscoe v. La Hue), the judge stated "I know the issue you're trying to raise and I will not let you raise it in my court."  He was removed from the court room again for raising the issue.
8. Critical evidence was missing from the court files.  Evidence which would have proved his innocence. ( Nicholas Bissell, the convicted felon and the Franklin Township Police admitted in another case of altering and removing court/police records (State v. Isaac Wright).
9. Judge Munkacsi amitted that it was a mistrial and refused to recuse herself again and let an unbiased judge here the case.
10. Judge Munkacsi tampered with the evidence, witnesses, and the Jury, by directing them to find Mr. Weinstein guilty.  Mr. Weinstein was sentenced 3 years in a New Jersey State Prison for a crime that the Judge called a "Political Issue".
11. All attempts to have his case heard of appeal have been thwarted by the system.

During his incarceration:

1. He was held in solitary confinement for over 3 months.  His first three (3) days were  without soap or toilet paper.   While in solitary confinement,  he was denied medical attention for 10 days and forced to extract his own abscessed tooth.
2. His food supply was reduced when he filed suit against Warden Vandergoot for denying him access to the Law Library, copies of the New Jersey and U.S. Constitutions, and preventing him from preparing an appeal.
3. He was beaten, hospitalized and then transferred to a Maximum State Prison.
4. All of his telephone calls to his Assistant of Counsel have been continuously interrupted.
5. Mail containing vital information for his appeal is being opened by prison officials and then "returned to sender".
6. He has been denied parole, while they are letting murders and other violent criminals back out on the streets.

The following is a quote from a letter that The Friends of Barry received from a local reporter, which was apparently written by retired Superior Court Judge Paul T. Murphy to U.S. District Court Judge, Alfred Lechner, Jr., concerning Mr. Bissell and the Somerset County Judicial system at large. Judge Murphy sat on the bench in Somerset County for four (4) years and was also a target of Bissell's mischievous acts. Judge Murphy should be well acquainted with Bissell's motive of operandi:

"My observation of the Bissell form of criminal justice was:

a). certain attorneys routinely received remarkably favorable plea bargains and sentence recommendations based on their friendship or political relationship to the Prosecutor. Their identities were well known to the bench and bar and their practices benefited immensely thereby;

b). other attorneys, primarily public defenders and assigned counsel of that office received the most harsh sentence recommendation and plea bargains;

c). Assistant Prosecutors were intimidated by the Prosecutor and were much more concerned with facing him after an acquittal than achieving unjust result.

Unfortunately, much of his conduct in office was tolerated by a judicial administration blinded by the "need" to achieve volume dispositions to the detriment of just results. Elected officials were intimidated by his reign of terror and abandoned fiscal supervision."
