MessageYour Honour

Sorry for the delay, We were attacked by the Balstulscianno, 2 of the police members that were supposed protect me have died. such things can happen

We present our evidence. We hope to prove that Sally Smith governor or Athosia committed abuse Abuse of power and that Burgmuller Pharma directors engaged in illegal Medical procedures. We also believe the accused engaged in corruption, tried to establish a cartel and fund mafia's activities

We will start by charges 1, 4, 5, 7

Exhibit 1 : constitution of Baltusia, it state the procedure which may permit local government to have powers.
http://classic.particracy.net/viewconstitution.php?nationid=22

Exhibit 2 :The State Symbols and Regional Governors Act of 4152
http://classic.particracy.net/viewbill.php?billid=501255
This law state that governers are responsables for pieces legislation assigned to local governments, article 2

Exhibit 3 : "http://classic.particracy.net/viewvariables.php?nationid=22 Baltusia laws.
this demonstration that local government responsabilities and power are
1 Providing shelters for civilian defense.
2 Organisation of a local police
3 Organisation of pre-school education system
4 Organisation of public libraries
5 registration of domestic animals
6 organisation of waste disposal
7 Organisation of fire service

The law also proves that
- Animals may not be used in any medical researches
- Animals may not be used in any cosmetics products
- Animals experimentation are illegal.

The Law also proves that wild animals ownership is illegal.
The law also state that any candidates may not receive donation.

Exhibit 4 : the Executive order, that allow burgmuller pharma to use animals experimentation, to test a drug, know as X3.
this prove that Burgmuller Pharma were engaged in developpement of a medical, with animal testing which is illegal, The governor signature prove that she had sign the executive order.

Exhibit 5 : Animals seized by public worker of the minister of science and technology who were able to enter the law and seize the animals.
Final Count : 155 Rabbits, 78 died of malnutrition. 44 Guinea pig, 27 deceased, and 1 dog, healthy. I'm not sure how it ended it on the count, must be a fonctionnary reflex. This show that the treatment of animals by Burgmuller pharma, was unethical. I also make remark, that 155 Rabbits and 44 Guinea pig, is greater then 6 and 2 told by Sally Smith.
the animals were found at Costa De Oro, Athosia.

For charges 10 and 11
Exhibit 6 : Interview by a Jeanne Lambert-Leloup with Enrique Yepes
Enrique Yepes was originally arrested on an other affairs for which he plead guilty, saying he would be safer in jail then outside. He was found with money on a Ranch that belong to the Balstulscianno mafia. In his interview, he state working for Burgmuller pharmaceutical, more precisely. When asked the names of his bosses, he said : "Graham Burgmuller, Stephen Hernandez, Jesus Matias Wright", who are the accusee. he state that he help the compagny to get its hand on Rabbits, from Balstulscianno and Guinea Pigs, from Akorivoand that approvisionnement would be continuous if the compagny paid 5% to the mafias for their works. If the defence wants, they can summon Enrique Yepes (Witness rp by PLCA) to interrogate him.
We also remark that these very of few were registered, unless we were given the wrong record.

Exhibit 7 : Your honour, this is a check, worth 321 547 823 LOD, that in possession of Enrique Yepes when he was arrest and was signed by Graham Burgmuller, it proves that Yepes was paid by Burgmuller pharmaceuticals, and he could used that money to paid the mafia, Yepes was supposed to be link between mafioso and Burgmuller Pharma

Exhibit 8 : A document showing a patent registration, signed by the former minister of science and technology, Louis Low,in November 4619, when Audrey-Sophie Waters-Laflamme has already his post as minister of science and technology. And the minister said ther he never even had the chance to reject the patent, since it was not presented to him. We believe this make it a fake document, since Louis Low was no longer minister, so had no right to sign the document.

For Charges 2 and 3
Exhibit 9 : Security video seized from the office of Athosia governor, it show that five person were able to meet with the governor in November 4169.

Exhibit 10 : Interview of Paul Price, who is pictured in the above video. In exchanged for only chargeing community work, (something your honour could change), Paul Price has agreed to speak about the meeting between Governor Sally Smith and Graham Burgmuller, Stephen Hernandez, Jesus Matias Wright, as well as him and an other individual we do not the name, nor the identity. he told us that during the discussion, Burgmuller said he give 723 543 867 LOD to a Wantuni Compagny registered in stock's exchanges and that this compagny would deposate the money in an account in the Freedom Bank of Kalopia/Wantuni,
A detective we send there, Sherry Cepillo-Sanders, said she was able to find the bank, as well an account with 752 243 843 LOD, number 8365938663285, registered under the name of Sally Smith. The Bank told them that the money was deposed by a Wantuni Compagny, with a letter signed by Graham Burgmuller. The bank did not agreed to send us back the money, but they changed the account owner to Sherry Cepillo-Sanders.
Paul price swear he saw partially the number of the account, while he was in the room, with the accusee, the unknown person and governor Sally Smith. These numbers were 8365938, they matche the account found by our detective.
Finally. In his interview, Paul Price said that Stephen Hernandez has decided present him the price of the product, 1300 BLD and told that the president told him : (We are gonna the sole productor and the sole distributor, so who cares about fair prices. If you want to save lives, then get off my face and join the Red Cross. )
We give permission to the defence to interview Paul Price.

Exhibit 11 : Income taxes by Paul Price, they shown Mr Paul price has paid 38% of his income in taxes, and that he has an income of 143 723 BLD. The name of the employer is Jesus Matias Wright. We believe this prove that Paul was an employee of Burgmuller pharmaceutical.

Your honour, we believe this state all the evidence we wished to present to the jury.

MessageWell, that is a certain truth, that we talked about X3, and about testing the product on animals, hoverer, it was only that, I would not be present. Mr Burgmuller asked me to be present and to reassure the governor, that no one is going to arrest her and that no one were going to find out. Which what I did. I told her : The police is incapable to catch a single vampire, and even if they catch, there is no way they are going to proves this.

MessageMr Price, I would like to clarify something. Are you accusing Mr Graham Burgmuller and Sally Smith of doing the following- Burgmuller would pay Smith somewhere in the region of 700,000,000 LOD via the Wutani banking scheme in order for her executive order to approve animal testing on X3? Or is there another reasons which Miss Smirh was supposedly paid this large sum of money?

Then he money came back during the discussion, as compensation for the risks she would take. But honestly, I failed to see why the governor who would be paid such as large of sum. it is so grotesque, there is no way such a transfer would not raise questions..

MessagePerfect, as per court process, the defendant's witnesses are asked questions by the defendant's counsel first. Sally Smith, please take the stand.

MJ: On the 3rd of November 4169 you met with the other 3 defendants, Mr Price and someone known as Zed, at your office. Is that correct?

SS: That is correct, yes.

MJ: And why did they meet you, what was the purpose of the meeting?

SS: Well, Mr Burgmuller had phoned me a few days earlier and he said that he wanted to meet with me with regards to a new product, so I set up an appointment for the 3rd of November. He asked if he could bring along Mr Hernandez and Mr Matias Wright and Mr Price, he also asked to bring 'Zed', so I approved. When Mr Burgmuller and the others arrived in my office they informed me that they had discovered an incredible drug known as X3 and it could save millions of lives, however they couldn't get it registered in different nations across the Terra until they had proof that it was completely safe, so they asked me if I could sign them an executive order stating that they could test the drug on animals. I accepted, however I did let them know that we would have to run it by the federal government. They said that was fine and they wouldn't begin any testing until the federal government has spoke about it and then had been in contact again.

MJ: So you didn't discuss Mr Burgmuller paying you money for this order.

SS: No, of course not. Everyone in the room apart from Mr Price says that.

MJ: How long did the meeting last?

SS: Around half an hour.

MJ: And all you talked about was the animal testing?

SS: We only talked about X3 and it being tested on animals and how it couldn't be registered unless it was defined as completely safe.

MJ: So everyone in your office at the time says that you didn't discuss any transfer of money, apart from Mr Price. Why do you think Mr Price would have made this up?

SS: Personally, I think Mr Price wanted to get money, and the way he could do this was out of my Wutani bank account. Mr Price didn't see any letter, because such a letter doesn't exist. What he did see was the corner of my computer monitor, which I was using to review some banking at the time, yes I know I shouldn't have left my monitor on. He likely saw that I had a lot of money in my Wutani bank account and wanted to steal it. It was convenient for him that he was in my office at the time and discussing things, so he created a false kind of alibi to say that he stole the money because we were all corrupted. When in fact, Mr Price was greedy because he wasn't paid greatly at Burgmuller Pharma and saw an easy opportunity for money in my bank account. When he feared he would be caught he made up all of the things about Burgmuller Pharma and me doing deals and pinned all the blame on us, when in fact, it was just Mr Price being too greedy for his own goods.

MJ: Well that is astonishing! Could you tell us about your financial history with the freedom bank in Wutani.

SS: Certainly. I opened a savings account with them on the 3rd of December 4168 and deposited 500 000 000 LOD.

MJ: How did you have such a large amount of money to put into a savings account?

SS: I was a very successful international lawyer, in fact I was Baltusian Ambassador to the General Assembly for a while. Whilst I won't reveal complete court case history, I made over 325 000 000 LOD on winning a single case.

MJ: Ah, that makes sense now, so, what did you deposit next?

SS: On the 17th of January the next year, which would have been 4169, I deposited another 100 500 000 LOD. I made another couple of smaller payments of 50 000 000 and 1 743 843 in the months of March and May of that year.

MJ: And you made a final payment on the 27th of August 4169, of 100 000 000 LOD I believe, where did this money come from.

SS: I was elected to governor in the June of that year so that was some money I had made winning the governorship, plus some other previous funds from when I was working as a lawyer.

MJ: So you definitely held an account in the Freedom Bank of Wutani?

SS: Most certainly, the bank will clarify that.

MJ: Why choose that bank over hundreds of others?

SS: My accountants said it was the safest and had the best interest for the large sums of money I would be depositing out of all the banks.

MJ: And finally Governor Smith, do you know who the 5th man in the video was, who attended the meeting, his name was Zed?

SS: When Mr Burgmuller contacted me he asked if he could bring 'Zed' along. I just approved thinking it was one of his staff.

MJ: Did he say anything during the meeting?

SS: Not really, he just said hello when he walked in, kind of nodded in agreement with Mr Burgmuller and me when we discussed X3 and the animal testing and said goodbye at the end. I don't really know why he was there to be perfectly honest.

MJ: Thank you Governor Smith.

MessageYour Honour

The standard procedure when a individual is suspected of crime is to freeze their money, but in no occasion, in Baltusia at least, a bank is allowed to switch around the owner of an account, as shown in this court. The fact that our detective was able to take the money, prove she is now the "legitimate owner of the account". We suspect it is because the bank just shift money and account depending on who ask. We believe that in fact, Miss Smith just learned that she has lost everything for now and will have to get to Wantumi herself.

But Concerning, we remind that charge 1, government abuse of power, take the fact that a governor cannot give permission to a business to engage in animals experimentation. So, we'll have few mores question, then we'll try to summon Paul Price once again. to clarify the situation, since he did not mention a computer and he seem to want to be in prison.

Question 1: is it normal for representative of a compagny to be talk about a procedure who is illegal.
Question 2 : at the time, did you knew what kind of salary Paul Price was receiving from Burgmuller Pharma
Question 3 : If you say you deposite that money to the bank, why the Bank told our detective it was a anynomous organisation that gaves us the money ?
Question 4 : Was your money depose in an other banks before August 4168 ?

MessageQ1: It is unusual, but this struck me personally. Regulations were going to stop millions of people receiving this drug, the drug that could save their life. My husband, he is ill with a heart disease and they believe that they could treat him with X3, I just wanted it done quickly, 6 guinea pigs and 2 rabbits for the millions of lives going to be saved. Please, I ask your honour to see between common sense and the law. What I did wasn't by the rule book, it was a decision o took to save lives.
Q2: I wasn't aware of the exact amount, however I knew it wasn't as much as the other men in the room were getting, apart from Zed, i knew nothing about what he earned.
Q3: From what I am aware the first few payments were done by me in person, the one in August was put under the name of 'anonymous organisation' because my accountants felt it would be a lot safer with all of the vampires and mafia to deal with the bank accounts.
Q4: Yes, of course. All in Baltusia

MessageYour honour, ,, That will be all. We state that, if Alexandra Jenning was arrested and judged for trying to answer a direct threat agaisnt her state and many people, I don't why see the defendant should be allowed to get away with violating the law, which say that animals testing is illegal. Can remark that 4000 person were killed by a cultic group and that this cultic could strike once again. But your honour, that was not judged as a valid reason to violate the law, this should not be etheir a valid reason.

We note that did not exactly answer the question, Why does that Bank switch over your account to Sherry Cepillo-Sanders in a matters of minutes, like they are playing around with people money.
And we have asked, do a police that has no police force is safe place to invest your money, we did not get an answer.
We also note that 143 000 BLD per year, is not exactly a small ammout of money.
We also wonder why does Baltusia have become unsafe, we know the vampires have risen recently, but they never stole money and mafia groups are not news, every state have their own mafia..

MessageQ1: Why did the bank switch the account over- because it's standard procedure during criminal investiagatipn.
Q2: I told you that bank was safe to investt money in already.
Q3:At no point did I say 143 000 BLD was a small amount of money. There's absolutely no relevance of that question
Q4: The prosecution know fine well that there is an issue with policing in Baltusia and the vampires and mafia have been able to escalate.

Sally Smith
Defendant

Your Honour,

Will the prosecution drop charges 2 and 3 on lack of evidence so that we can focus on the other parts of this case?

Thank you
