I assume you or the lawyer had a copy of the offense report. What did the officer list as cause for stop and was this officer present in court during your preliminary?
You also stated previously that you had, in fact, been drinking - therefore, reasonable to assume there was an odor of alcohol on your breath. But you also claim that you passed all the tests. This was a Breathalyzer test?
Therefore, your claim is that you were charged in Hawkins County with DUI, although you were under the legal limit. And the root cause of this was discrimination?

I just wanted to say thanks for adding the extra information. I was pretty sure that you were guilty, until you let all of us know that you were black. Now what really pushed me over to innocent is when I found out you drive a BMW, because we all know that people who drive BMW's are completely innocent of all crimes. Thanks again. One other thing, the little red lines under the words mean they are spelled wrong. Must not take much to get that BMW.

Good for you Rev. So glad to hear that you don't indulge when you have to drive! You missed the whole point of my scenerio, there was NO REASON to pull me over, I WAS NOT drunk, I PASSED ALL tests! The officer was being a real Di*kHead, and I had to pay for his ignorance. Sir, let me ask you, do actually think that the only reason a Judge dimisses a crime or finds someone not guilty is only if there is a technicality? How nieve you are! I was pulled over for a simple traffic offense....DRIVING WHILE BLACK! I guess the officer might have been a little jealous that I was driving a BMW 745 and he was stuck driving a Malibu...go figure! My suggestion for you: tell all your friends that if they just so happen to be falsely arrested they better plead guilty, because if for some reason they are found not guilty, you might think it was a technicality, hey they were obviously guilty! WAKE UP REV, it might be you one day!

This helped. Here is what Kulon learned from the people of Parksville: Kulon’s neighbor, D'Ambrose,
is a friend of Altbach and Detective Sticco. Altbach's wife, without his knowledge, sold the house to Kulon.
This made Altbach furious and deprived his real estate company of a possible commission.
D'Ambrose, who is Altbach and Stcco good frand, began a campaign against the artist.
He sued Kulon in small claims court for various things over ten times. All of the cases were dismissed.
This success, and court's refusal to explain the underlying reasons, are hopefully unique to this local legal system.
Altbach, a Justice of the Peace and general practice lawyer, wrote the order.
The court, through Judge Zanetti, rubber-stamped it.
Things got worse. After about a year after Kulon’s first arrest, D'Ambrose tried to shoot him.
One day, when Kulon was mowing my lawn, he fired a shotgun at him.
Fortunately he missed but his shot pierced the tire of Kulon’s mower.
The artist called the police and D'Ambrose was arrested but, to Kulon’s shock and dismay,
he was released the very next day. Kulon learned he was freed by court order.
The artist was worried that D'Ambrose might try to shoot him again, but his request for protection was denied.
D'Ambrose should have faced trial in court in Monticello . It appears he never did, and he got off easily.
Kulon was asked to testify even before a Grand Jury., bat now one knows noting for now. His attempts
to obtain documentation of the case have been fruitless.
The local wisdom is that Altbach, with the help of his friends Detective Sticco and Judge Zanetti,
wanted to remove Kulon from his house at any costs.
The artist also learned through locals why, when Detective Sticco arrested him for the first time,
Kulon was so mysteriously taken to Altbach’s office in a private car, and then in a police car to a Sullivan County Jail:
The Parksville area within Sullivan County jurisdiction, but is outside of Altbach's, and his prime area of influence.
Kulon can only conclude at this point that there exists, in this part of Sullivan County ,
a dangerous cronyism similar to that seen in the movies about stereotyped small towns in the Deep South.
If you cross the wrong path, you can be harassed, fined, jailed, threatened, and attacked. Your rights mean nothing.
There is no recourse if this happens. The perpetrators are the powers that be.
They will protect themselves, and their personal interests, at all costs and at your expense.
Kulon now thinks that his paintings, having attracted much publicity,
ironically are the only thing that have stood between himself and continued danger.
I end this with Kulon’s thoughts of what he see as very wrong, and for which he seeks help.
First, those who wield power in this part of Sullivan County abuse their power to the worst extent,
and they do so with seeming impunity.
Second, Kulon faces a liability of $1,500,000.00 for acting in objection to this, and in his defense,
by painting a public figure in a satirical manner..........to be continued .
Thank you so much for your time and consideration. If you would like to see some of the paintings mentioned here,
and review a collection of public documents and news accounts relating to this matter,
please see the artist’s work and information web site at: www.coolon.net .
