“HALF-TRUTHS, FALSE STATEMENTS AND OUTRIGHT LIES” told to the Jury BEFORE AND AFTER the trial by the Prosecution, (Traci Kenner and Gregg Marchessault), as well as Al Petty’s attorney, (John R. Smith).
On the last day of the trial, Oct. 30, 2002, Judge Hannah defined “False Representation” during his “Charge to the Court” as follows:
(P185, L21-25) (Emphasis by Defendant)
“A representation is false if it is known to be UNTRUE or is made with ‘RECKLESS INDIFFERENCE’ as to its truth or falsity. A representation would ALSO BE FALSE when it constitutes a ‘half-truth’, or effectively OMITS or CONCEALS a MATERIAL FACT, provided it was made with the INTENT to DEFRAUD. (P186, L1-3) The judge goes on to say, “a false statement” is ‘material’ if it has a NATURAL TENDENCY to INFLUENCE, or IS CAPABLE OF INFLUENCING, the person or entity to which it is addressed.
On (P185-L15-20), Judge Hannah defines “Scheme to Defraud”: “A Scheme to Defraud”: includes any scheme to DEPRIVE ANOTHER of MONEY, PROPERTY or of the INTANGIBLE RIGHT TO HONEST SERVICES by means of FRAUDULENT PRETENSES, REPRESENTATIONS or PROMISES.
STATEMENTS AS DESCRIBED ABOVE BY THE GOVERNMENT
1)
In her opening statement, (V1-P130-L17-20) Lead Prosecutor, Traci Kenner, made the following statement. KENNER: “I believe the financial evidence will show that investments were beginning to escalate in January, February and March of 2002, (Preceding True), (Following is Outright Lie!), KENNER: "and as of April 2002, TeleCom2000 was BEHIND IN PAYMENTS of $30,057,267.32"!
In her opening statement, (V1-P130-L17-20) Lead Prosecutor, Traci Kenner, made the following statement. KENNER: “I believe the financial evidence will show that investments were beginning to escalate in January, February and March of 2002, (Preceding True), (Following is Outright Lie!), KENNER: "and as of April 2002, TeleCom2000 was BEHIND IN PAYMENTS of $30,057,267.32"!COMMENT:
ANALYSIS OF FALSE STATEMENT # 1
PART I of “POISONING OF THE JURY”
Traci Kenner said “I BELIEVE” COMMENT: After almost a year of intensive investigation of TeleCom2000; AlPetty, the government professed to have as many as 250,000 documents on Al Petty– TeleCom2000. Also many Pre-Trial Hearings had been conducted, utilizing evidence and testimony. ALL evidence in Al Petty’s records, as well as TESTIMONY at the Hearing, proved conclusively that Al Petty was NOT “behind” in ANY PAYMENTS to the TeleCom2000 Business Owners! This includes testimony by FBI Special Agent, James Hersley, under questioning by Richard (Racehorse) Haynes at the PI (PERMANENT INJUNCTION) hearing on June 12, 2002, who stated for the first of many testimonies, "PRIOR TO THE FREEZING OF THE FUNDS, NO COMPLAINTS, ALLEGATIONS OR CHARGES OF ILLEGAL ACTIVITY HAD BEEN RECEIVED by the REGULATORY AGENCIES." Subsequent testimony and ALL EVIDENCE substantiated HERSLEY’S testimony that Al Petty was NOT “BEHIND ON ANY PAYMENTS”, PRIOR TO THE FREEZE, except to purchasers whose paperwork processing had been SABOTAGED by the “NEGLECT OF DUTIES TO AL PETTY” WHILE “DRAWING THEIR WAGES FROM AL PETTY” although they were actually WORKING FOR THE FBI! It is therefore a fact that, although the AUTO-PAY system of Al Petty was PRE-PROGRAMMED with $30M commissions that would become due, mostly in the sixth month period following the Government’s Shut Down, virtually none of that $30M was “BEHIND”.
Perhaps KENNER was MORE AWARE of this FACT than ANYONE, other than Al Petty. THEREFORE THERE IS NO WAY that she thought that she was telling the truth when she said, “I BELIEVE”, etc. No logical, sane person could have “BELIEVED” her FALSE STATEMENT, such as she claimed to believe, while in awareness of all of the data to the contrary of ANY delinquency on the part of Al Petty! Therefore Traci Kenner KNOWINGLY AND BLATANTLY LIED WHEN SHE SAID “I BELIEVE” referring to the LIE that she was about to “DEFRAUD” the Jury with! ALL TESTIMONY AND EVIDENCE PROVED that Al Petty was operating DEBT-FREE and was NOT BEHIND on any PAYMENTS! It is a fact that, ANY U.S. CITIZEN WHO BELIEVED in the Integrity of their government, as we can assume the members of the Jury did, WOULD BE STRONGLY “INFLUENCED” by a statement of a U. S. Attorney that “Al Petty” was behind $30M in PAYMENTS & ESPECIALLY AFTER ALSO (PRIOR TO TRIAL) READING THE GOVERNMENT’S FALSE PRESS RELEASES FOR SEVEN MONTHS that “AL PETTY DIVERTED THE FUNDS FOR HIS PERSONAL USE” (ANOTHER BLATANT LIE!).
The above FALSE STATEMENT by the PROSECUTION DEFINITELY PREJUDICED THE JURY AGAINST AL PETTY going into the trial! Logic dictates that Kenner's lies to the Jury, IN ALL PROBABILITY, INFLUENCED THE JURY TO FIND AL PETTY GUILTY ACCORDING TO THE COURT’S DEFINITIONS OF “SCHEME TO DEFRAUD”, AND “FALSE STATEMENTS”!
Although the government was not on trial, the government resorted to the use of FALSE STATEMENTS that DEFINITELY could be accurately described as having “A NATURAL TENDENCY TO INFLUENCE, OR WAS CAPABLE OF INFLUENCING THE PERSONS TO WHICH IT WAS ADDRESSED”, (The Jury), to “DEFRAUD” by DEPRIVING ANOTHER, (AL PETTY AND 3,000 TELECOM2000 BUSINESS OWNERS), OF MONEY, PROPERTY, AND THE INTANGIBLE RIGHT to HONEST SERVICES, (ALL EVIDENCE PROVED AL PETTY’S SERVICES TO BE EXACTLY AS REPRESENTED! THAT’S ‘HONEST SERVICES’!) By MEANS OF FRAUDULENT, PRETENSES, REPRESENTATONS OR PROMISES”!
Kenner’s “PROMISE TO PRODUCE EVIDENCE THAT PROVED AL PETTY TO BE ‘BEHIND’ $30M WAS NEVER DELIVERED! THEREFORE HER PROMISE WAS PROVEN TO BE FALSE.
In summary, the FALSE STATEMENTS made by TRACI KENNER MET EVERY CRITERIA DEFINED BY THE COURT AS USING “FALSE STATEMENTS” TO WRONGLY INFLUENCE THE JURY TO DEPRIVE AL PETTY AND 3,000 TELECOM2000 BUSINESS OWNERS OF “MONEY, PROPERTY AND THE INTANGIBLE RIGHT TO THE HONEST SERVICES” OF AL PETTY – TELECOM2000, USING FRAUDULENT PRETENSES, REPRESENTATIONS AND PROMISES!"
QUESTION: "DOES THE GOVERNMENT HAVE THE LEGAL AUTHORITY TO PARTICIPATE IN A “CONSPIRACY TO DEFRAUD”, AND IN SUBSEQUENT FRAUDULENT ACTS “IF THEY FEEL THAT FRAUD IS NECESSARY” TO CONVICT A PERSON THAT THEY KNOW IS INNOCENT OF ILLEGAL ACTIVITY OF FRAUD?
THE FOLLOWING ARE BUT A FEW MORE OF THE FALSE AND FRAUDULENT STATEMENTS BY THE GOVERNMENT AND THEIR WITNESSES DURING THE TRIAL THAT PROVOKED THE “GUILTY VERDICT” OF AL PETTY, IN SPITE OF ALL TESTIMONY AND EVIDENCE TO THE CONTRARY. TESTIMONY PROVED THAT AL PETTY DEFRAUDED NO ONE. Top of Page
FALSE STATEMENT #2 (opening statement to Jury cont.)
(V1, P-125, L1-2) “We believe that there’s evidence that generally INVOLVES some sort of MISREPRESENTATION”.
COMMENT: NOT ONE person testified that Al Petty misrepresented ANYTHING to them. This includes all Government Witnesses who were Telecom2000 Business Owners. To the contrary, ALL Telecom2000 Business Owners testified “AL PETTY KEPT EVERY PROMISE AND REPRESENTATION MADE TO THEM”! ANOTHER LIE TO “INFLUENCE THE JURY” to DEPRIVE AL PETTY AND 3,000 Business Owners of their money and property!
“HALF-TRUTH” = FALSE STATEMENT #3
(V1, P130, L21-23) The following “Half-Truth – False Statement" was repeated many times by the Prosecution: KENNER: “You will hear testimony that Mr. Petty was particularly concerned about the Government coming in and shutting down Telecom2000.”
COMMENT: The “Half that is true” is that Al Petty was concerned about being shut down by the government. The “other half of the truth” was omitted. The FALSE IMPLICATION BY THIS HALF-TRUTH was that Al Petty was concerned that the Government would shut him down because he was “running a Ponzi” or some other illegal activity. NOTHING COULD BE FURTHER FROM THE TRUTH – that was OMITTED!
Al Petty’s PERSONAL LIFE’S HISTORY is one of Being So FAR “AHEAD OF HIS TIME”, as shown by the CHARACTER WITNESSES at his sentencing hearing, as well as “LIMITED BY THE PROSECUTION AND HIS INEFFICIENT COUNSEL, J.R. SMITH”, TESTIMONY BY SEVERAL TRIAL WITNESSES CONFIRMED; TESTIMONY THAT JUSTIFIED AL PETTY’S CONCERN OF BEING SHUT DOWN BY THE GOVERNMENT, BUT NOT BECAUSE OF ANY “ILLEGAL ACTIVITY”! AL PETTY’S CONCERN, AFTER A LIFETIME OF BEING AHEAD OF HIS TIME, AND MISUNDERSTOOD, WAS THAT THE GOVERNMENT’S “TECHNOLOGICAL – ILLITERACY” WOULD MISUNDERSTAND HIM AND THEREFORE SHUT HIM DOWN. AND OF COURSE, THE FACT IS – AT THE TIME OF THIS WRITING – AL PETTY IS SERVING A 24 YR, (LIFETIME?) SENTENCE IN PRISON AND 3,000 WONDERFUL “BUSINESS OWNER – U.S. CITIZENS” ARE SUFFERING IRREPERABLE HARM AND FINANCIAL DISASTER! THE “POWER OF LIFE AND DEATH IS IN THE TONGUE” AND TRACI KENNER’S “WORDS OF HALF-TRUTH – DECEPTION” SPOKE “PHYSICAL IMPRISONMENT DEATH OF 24 YRS” TO AL PETTY AND “FINANCIAL DEATH” TO THOUSANDS OF TELECOM2000 BUSINESS OWNERS! AL PETTY WAS NOT CONCERNED ABOUT COMMITTING ANY “ILLEGAL ACTIVITY” AND GETTING SHUT DOWN, HOWEVER HE WAS “JUSTIFIABLY CONCERNED” ABOUT BEING MISUNDERSTOOD BY A “TECHNOLOGY – ILLITERATE FBI AND EAST TEXAS FEDERAL JUDICIAL SYSTEM. SIMPLY TRACI LIED!
FALSE STATEMENT #4
(TRACI CONT. WITH ADDRESSING JURY BEFORE AND AFTER TRIAL)
(V1, P135, L8-11) ON “MINISTERIAL ACCOUNT”, “FACE TO FACE” AND “CDI”: “We believe that the evidence will show that the purpose of these series of transactions in setting up the CDI account and the Face To Face Ministries account were to HIDE MONEY FROM THE GOVERNMENT!”
COMMENT: ALL TESTIMONY and Evidence proved that AFTER BEING COERCED TO OPEN THAT ACCOUNT BY HIS BROTHER DAN PETTY AND SANDRA HALLEY, (both of whom were government witnesses!), Al Petty insisted on opening the account in the SAME BANK, in the SAME LOCAL COMMUNITY OF TYLER, THAT HAD long contained his personal and business accounts. Even at the urging of the CDI principals, as well as his brother and Halley, that he open the Account in Dallas or Kansas City, Al Petty resisted their “influence" to conceal or deceive, and insisted that the same bank he had used for years, and processed millions of dollars through, be used. No evidence was ever given that Al Petty was trying to “CONCEAL MONEY” or “EVADE TAXES”, (as he was falsely accused also in doing by the government and their “FALSE WITNESSES” WHO WERE NOT TELECOM2000 BUSINESS OWNERS OR BUSINESS ASSOCIATES). This is another illustration of the government’s conspiracy to Defraud Al Petty and the BUSINESS OWNERS by “INFLUENCING THE JURY” with “HALF–TRUTH–FALSE STATEMENTS.
FALSE STATEMENT #5 BY THE PROSECUTION
False Statement #5, (By Assistant Prosecutor Gregg Marchessault, in His “VOIR DIRE” address to the Jury) (V1-P61-L9-10).
MARCHESSAULT: Investors in Telecom2000 were solicited through several methods, including “RANDOM Telephone Solicitation”.
COMMENT: Al PETTY CALLED ONLY PERSONS WHO HAD EXPRESSED AN INTEREST IN OBTAINING BETTER LONG DISTANCE AND CELL PHONE RATES, AND OR, AND “INCOME-ENHANCEMENT” OPPORTUNITY. NO “RANDOM CALLS” WERE MADE BY AL PETTY, OR ALLOWED BY AL PETTY TO BE MADE BY TELECOM2000 BUSINESS OWNERS. Gregg obviously made this “HALF-TRUTH”, (AL PETTY DID MAKE INFOCALES, BUT ONLY TO SELECTED PHONE NUMBERS HE PURCHASED, NOT “CALLED RANDOMLY”), FALSE STATEMENT TO “PLAY ON THE EMOTIONS” OF A JURY THAT, UNDERSTANDABLY, RESENTED BEING INTERRUPTED WHILE EATING BY UNSOLICITED PHONE CALLS! THIS IS YET ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF THE “FRAUDULENT-CONSPIRATORIAL” FALSE STATEMENTS BY THE PROSECUTION TO PREJUDICE THE JURY BEFORE THE TRIAL EVEN STARTED.
FALSE STATEMENT #6 by the Prosecution
MARCHESSAULT: (V1-P62-L16) “on a PROMOTIONAL videotape recorded during a convention for TeleCom2000 investors”
COMMENT: The Video in subject was called “TEACHING THE TEACHERS”. THIS SEMINAR WAS NOT EVEN available to persons who were not already TeleCom2000 Business Owners. Therefore Gregg, Hersley, Herrara, Cunningham and Kenner were not even qualified to attend that seminar, or to watch - much less, CRITIQUE, - the video. It was NOT a “PROMOTIONAL VIDEO”, as stated FALSELY by MARCHESSAULT! THIS LIE WAS ALSO REPEATED THROUGHOUT the Trial by the Government and their witnesses. TheVideo was for MEMBERS ONLY!
FALSE STATEMENT #7 by the Prosecution
(V1-P62-L-25 & P63-L1-2) MARCHESSAULT: “THE VIDEOTAPE DESCRIPTION OF THE PROGRAM INDICATED THAT OLDER INVESTORS WERE PAID WITH THE FUNDS PROVIDED BY NEW INVESTORS”.
COMMENT: The above was a total contradiction to the often repeated accusation by the prosecution that “Al Petty DID NOT TELL YOU THAT HE USED THE MONEY FROM THE NEW INVESTORS TO PAY THE OLD INVESTORS”… Above Gregg states Al Petty told them he did tell them, He ‘PAID OLD WITH NEW”, however, consistently with most every witness during the trial, he mislead the witness with Al Petty DID NOT TELL THEM HE WAS USING MONEY FROM THE NEW TO PAY THE OLD. To the contrary of indicating that Al Petty used the “NEW TO PAY THE OLD”, in the video, Al Petty devoted a great deal of time to explaining how that the DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY he employed is the key to his returning 500 – 1100 % returns! THE 90% MARKETING AND OPERATIONAL COST REDUCTION THAT AL PETTY ACHIEVED WAS THE FACTOR THAT ENABLED AL PETTY TO ENHANCE THE LIVES OF THE TELECOM2000 BUSINESS OWNERS WITH ANNUALIZED RETURNS, (NOT “INTEREST” – i.e. NO “INVESTMENT”!), OF 500 – 1100%. This Lie by Gregg was considered by the prosecution as necessary to build their FALSE CASE of “Ponzi” against Al Petty, for which he was NOT ON TRIAL FOR! Top of Page
FALSE STATEMENT #8 “HALF TRUTH” = FALSE
(V1-P63-L3-6) MARCHESSAULT: “The funds investors paid to purchase TeleCom2000 Businesses were either deposited into TeleCom2000 bank accounts, or held at the TeleCom2000 office until needed to pay investors.”
COMMENT: The funds WERE deposited into bank accounts” is true. However the IMPLICATION that funds were regularly held at corporate headquarters OMITTED this FACT; that the funds were held at TeleCom2000 office for a very brief period of 2-3 weeks (of the 27 month in operation of TeleCom2000)! During this “HOLDING” period Al Petty was setting up “COMMISSION-ONLY” accounts with his check processors for AutoPay, Gemisys, as well as accounts in Digital Currency to better serve his exploding DATA BASE OF INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS OWNERS, whom GEMISYS could not serve. This “OMISSION OF TRUTH”, combined with False implications satisfies the court’s definition of “influencing the decision” of the JURY WITH HALF-TRUTHS OF “NEGATIVISM”!
FALSE STATEMENT #9 (MARCHESSAULT CONT. BEFORE TRIAL –TO JURY)
(V1-P63-L14-17) MARCHESSAULT: “The deposit record of TeleCom2000 accounts do not reflect deposits from any sources other than investor funds that were sufficient to make the promised payments to investors”.
COMMENT: What a LUDICROUS, MISLEADING FALSE STATEMENT. In the first place, deposits were not “LABELLED AS”, (IN THE ‘COMPUTER BANK’ RECORDS), “THIS MONEY CAME FROM L.D. – CELL PHONE-TELECOMPUTERS VIRTUAL OUTSOURCED OFFICES – DIGITAL MARKETING”, NOR “LABELED” THIS MONEY CAME FROM NEW INVESTORS TO PAY THE OLD”! (WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN A LIE)! Therefore the statement, implying that Bank records, contained “labels” stating their source was Ludicrous! In Fact, MOST ALL OF THE FUNDS, SIMPLY AND TRUTHFULLY, CAME FROM THE 90% COST CUTTING “DIGITAL MARKETING CONTRACTS” THAT REPRESENTED THE MAJOR PORTION OF THE COST OF EACH TELECOM2000 VIRTUAL BUSINESS! THE PRINCIPLE THAT ENABLED AL PETTY TO CUT THAT COST BY 90% IS SIMPLE. HOWEVER THE DIGITAL COST CUTTING PROCEDURE IS EXTREMELY COMPLEX, AS WELL AS DEPENDNT UPON AL PETTY’S LIFETIME OF “EXPERIENTIAL” KNOWLEDGE IN COMMUNICATIONS! THE “BOTTOM LINE” IS THAT THE FACT THAT AL PETTY DID NOT AFFIX “LABELS” TO EVERY DEPOSIT IN THE BANK DOES NOT – IN ANY WAY – IMPLY THAT AL PETTY WAS OPERATING A “PONZI SCHEME”, (FOR WHICH HE WAS NOT EVEN ON TRIAL FOR!), OR “USING FUNDS FROM THE NEW TO PAY THE OLD”! THE GENERATION OF THOSE FUNDS – FROM THE CONTRACTS FOR THE MARKETING SERVICES OF TELECOM2000 – GENERATED THE MAJOR PORTION OF THE FUNDS TO PAY ALL OPERATIONAL COSTS, INCLUDING THE CONTRACTUAL COMMITMENT AL PETTY GUARANTEED ALL TELECOM2000 BUSINESS OWNERS "BY OMITTING" MARKETING REVENUE Gregg lied!
FALSE STATEMENT #10 By PROSECUTION
MARCHESSAUT: “Although the defendant had made guaranteed payments to ‘INVESTORS’ during the course of the ‘SCHEME’, by April, 2002, guaranteed payments were outstanding in amounts in excess of $30,000,000” (V1-P63-L23-25 and P64-L1).
COMMENT: Gregg addressed the Jury before Kenner. With this statement he “conditions” the minds of the Jury to accept her “FALSE STATEMENT #1”, i.e. that “Al Petty was BEHIND $30,000,000! Gregg’s cleverly planned wording in part one of this statement implies, WITHOUT ACTUALLY SAYING IT, that Al Petty was $30M BEHIND when the government made its move. WHEN A PERSON SIGNS A CONTRACT TO MAKE FUTURE PAYMENTS, ARE THEY IN “FRAUDULENT-DEFAULT” SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY SIGNED THE CONTRACT, ALTHOUGH NOT A “DIME” OF THE CONTRACT IS DUE YET? OF COURSE NOT! HOWEVER THE GOVERNMENT PERPETUATED THIS “ LIE OF OMISSION OF FACTS” THROUGHOUT THE TRIAL in order to “INFLUENCE THE JURY” TO DEPRIVE AL PETTY AND 3,000 BUSINESS OWNERS OF THEIR, (NOT THE GOVERNMENT’S), “MONEY AND PROPERTIES!”
FALSE STATEMENT #11 (V1-P64-L2-3)
MARCHESSAUT: “Now, what I have just described to you is both a Ponzi Scheme and A Telemarketing Scheme”.
COMMENT: However, he OMITS the fact that Al Petty’s INDICTMENT, ONLY FOR WHICH HE WAS ON TRIAL, DOES NOT CONTAIN THE WORD, “PONZI”! Yes, Gregg did usurp the court for this length of time by discussing an element “PONZI”, that Al Petty was not even on trial for! Then, AFTER LAYING A FALSE FOUNDATION, AS DO ALL SKILLED “ORATORS OF DECEIT”, GREGG PROCEEDED to build his case on a ‘FOUNDATION’ OF “FRAUDULENT DECEIT” OF “PONZI”, in order to PREJUDICE THE JURY BEFORE THE TRIAL EVEN STARTED!
FALSE STATEMENT #12
(V1-P64-L19-21) COMMENT: MARCHESSAULT was very aware that Al Petty-TeleCom2000 was NOT MLM! Al Petty worked diligently over 5 years to analyse the fallacies of MLM that result in a “95% - Plus” failure rate; i.e. Multi-Level Marketers do not make money, nor do they get their money back. The Prosecution KNEW that one of Al Petty’s major accomplishments in Marketing was to uncover the hundreds of reasons why “MLM’ers” fail, and then he developed a system – NOT MLM – where 100% of Business Purchasers were GUARANTEED to succeed! The RESULT WAS TELECOM2000! In order to continue his “WEB OF DECEIT” to prejudice the Jury Against Al Petty’s INNOCENCE, MARCHESSAULT devoted a LARGE PORTION of his address to the Jury to POISONING the minds of the Jury with the “FALSE INFLUENCE” OF EXPLOITING the members of the Jury. Gregg KNEW that those who participate in MLM LOSE. He had listened to many taped conversations and lectures by Al Petty that exposed the corruptness of Multi-Level Marketing. ALTHOUGH HE WAS AWARE THAT TELECOM2000 was NOT MLM, he insisted on questioning the Jury members extensively about their participation in MLM. His basic question to the Jury BEFORE THE TRIAL was, “HAS ANYONE ON THIS PANEL EVER PARTICIPATED IN A MULTI-LEVEL MARKETING PROGRAM”-“COULD I HAVE YOUR NAME”? AT LEAST EIGHT JURY PANELISTS RESPONDED AND NOT ONE OF THEM MADE MONEY AND ONLY ONE GOT THEIR MONEY BACK!
THEN MARCHESSAULT MOVED DECEPTIVELY TO ANOTHER “SCHEME” FOR WHICH I WAS NOT ON TRIAL FOR, THE ILLEGAL “PYRAMID SCHEME”! HE EXPLAINED, “PYRAMID”, THEN ASKED IF ANYONE HAD BEEN INVOLVED IN A PYRAMID SCHEME. PERSON AFTER PERSON RESPONDED THAT THEY HAD BEEN INVOLVED. TYPICAL ANSWERS WERE: “MY NAME IS BEVERLY JOSEPH, AND I INVESTED IN THE SAME “FAIRFIELD” SITUATION IN THE EARLY NINETIES AND I DID LOSE THE MONEY!” JUDGE HANNAH AND AL PETTY’S COUNSEL, JOHN R. SMITH, KNEW THAT AL PETTY WAS NOT ON TRIAL FOR “MLM” OR “PYRAMID”, YET NEITHER OF THEM OBJECTED TO MARCHESSAULT’S ABUSE OF THE COURT AND POISONING OF THE JURY!
IN FACT, THE JUDGE ENCOURAGED THE EXPLOITATION OF THIS IRRELEVANT SUBJECT BY CALLING GREGG’S ATTENTION TO TWO JURISTS, WHO RESPONDED BY RAISING THEIR HANDS, THAT GREGG OVERLOOKED, (AS IF JUDGE HANNAH HIMSELF WANTED THIS “IRRELEVANCY” TO PREJUDICE THE JURY!). AS EACH JURIST TESTIFIED TO THEIR FAILURES AND LOSSES, AND AS GREGG “INFLUENCED” THEM TO ASSOCIATE THEIR FRAUDULENT LOSSES TO AL PETTY, THEY WERE BEING POISONED AGAINST AL PETTY! WHILE THERE WAS A “HALF-TRUTH”, i.e., AL PETTY DID “MARKET”. HOWEVER, TO ASSOCIATE THIS “HALF-TRUTH” WITH TELECOM2000 WAS AS DECEPTIVE AS ASKING THE JURY QUESTIONS THAT WOULD ASSOCIATE AL PETTY WITH MARKETING DRUGS OR PORNOGRAPHY!
THIS “HALF-TRUTH”, ACCORDING TO THE COURT’S DEFINITION, DEFINITELY WAS A “FALSE STATEMENT TO INFLUENCE THE JURY” TO DEPRIVE AL PETTY AND 3,000 BUSINESS OWNERS OF “MONEY AND PROPERTY” BY JUDGING AL PETTY GUILTY! (THIS IRRELEVANT DISCUSSION CONTINUED THRU (V1-P67-L10).
FALSE STATEMENT #13 G.M. CONT. “JURY INFLUENCE”
(V1-P70-L10-14) MARCHESSAULT: We believe the evidence in this case may indicate that the defendant, Mr. Al Petty, claims to be an ordained minister with either the “Assembly of God” or “The Church of God”. Do we have any members of the Assembly of God, or The Church of God who are on this Panel?” Then he asked, after finding one, “any former members?”
COMMENT: Another “HALF-TRUTH”! Al Petty was an ordained minister, but not of the Assembly of God or Church of God. This was a flagrant violation of “CHURCH AND STATE”. OBVIOUSLY Gregg’s focus here was to ELIMINATE “PERSONS OF LIKE FAITH”. How far is the prosecution allowed to go to eliminate ANYONE who would correctly find the defendant Innocent?
“IMPLIED” FALSE STATEMENT #14
(P73-75-L14-16) MARCHESSAULT: “Does anyone have strong feelings about Federal taxes and that you shouldn’t have to Pay Them?
COMMENT: In his continued quest to “Influence” the Jury to “DEPRIVE Al Petty and 3,000 Business Owners of Money and Property”, Marchessault asked a question that was clearly intended to “influence” the Jury to believe that Al Petty was a “tax-dodger”. The issue of tax Evasion had NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS TRIAL! YET Gregg was allowed by the Judge and Defendant’s counsel to continue to plant totally “NON-RELATED” ISSUES in the minds of Jurors to cause them to believe Al Petty was guilty of the “non-issues” to influence them against Al Petty.
FALSE STATEMENT #15
(V1-P79-L5-6) MARCHESSAULT: “NOW IT’S THE INTENT OF THE GOVERNMENT, IN THIS CASE, TO TAKE ALL OF THIS PROPERTY AND RETURN IT TO THE VICTIMS”.
COMMENT: During the trial Judge Hannah repeatedly allowed the Prosecution to make this statement. YET he also repeatedly instructed the Jury to disregard ANY mention by the Government regarding their returning the money to the “victims”! WHY did he continue to allow this, starting with Gregg – here to the Jury – before the trial even started? It certainly appears that the COURT was encouraging the “INFLUENCING OF THE JURY” AGAINST AL PETTY from BEFORE the trial started. During the SENTENCING HEARING, (P84-L17-19), JUDGE HANNAH, in reference to restitution to the victims, (April 10th 2003), stated: “ I HOPE THAT WE CAN GATHER A LOT OF THE MONEY UP; HOWEVER, AS YOU ARE PROBABLY AWARE, IT’S PROBABLY GOING TO BE “NICKELS ON THE DOLLAR”.
COMMENT: This statement was made, in the closing moments of the sentencing hearing, to Al Petty! Surely, if HANNAH would say to Al Petty “AS YOU ARE PROBABLY AWARE”, the Government must have known from the beginning that a statement – such as made to the Jury BEFORE the trial even started, as: “IT IS THE INTENT OF THE GOVERNMENT TO TAKE ALL, (not “nickels on the Dollar”), of this property and return it to the ‘victims’ WAS FALSE!
The JUDGE OR J. R. SMITH should NEVER have allowed this statement by Gregg to the Jury! JUST THE FACT THAT GREGG MARCHESSAULT WOULD MAKE THIS “KNOWINGLY FALSE STATEMENT” PROVES HIS “INTENT TO DEFRAUD”, (DECEIVE THE JURY). ADD TO THIS “INJURY” THE INSULT – THAT NEITHER J.R. SMITH OR JUDGE HANNAH OBJECTED – AND ONE CANNOT HELP BUT WONDER IF THERE WAS A “CONSPIRACY-AGREEMENT” between them to convict Al Petty? Top of Page

SUMMARY OF VOIR DIRE BY PROSECUTION
After encouraging the selection of all panelists who habitually agreed with the government, Gregg discouraged the use of ANY JURISTS, who did not, in effect, BELIEVE THAT THE GOVERNMENT COULD “DO NO WRONG”! Therefore, if the government “ALLEGED” that Al Petty was Guilty, the “chosen Jurists” would consist only of persons who thought the government to be PERFECT and would agree with WHATEVER position that was taken by the GOVERNMENT, Jurists who would vote “GUILTY ON ALL COUNTS”, as encouraged by the GOVERNMENT, although ALL TESTIMONY AND EVIDENCE PROVED that the GOVERNMENT was GUILTY OF DEFRAUDING the Jury and the COURT, while TESTIMONY AND EVIDENCE PROVED the Defendant was INNOCENT. The “Bottom Line” of MARCHESSAULT’S OBJECTIVE, as well – apparently – of JUDGE HANNAH – was to choose 12 Jurors and 2 Alternates who would “PARROTT AND RUBBER STAMP” every FALSE STATEMENT AND CHARGE made by the GOVERNMENT to convict a man,
even though they knew Al Petty was innocent! AND, TO THE DISGRACE of THE EAST TEXAS FEDERAL JUDICIAL SYSTEM, THE GOVERNMENT DID CONVICT AN INNOCENT CITIZEN, WHO WAS NEVER ACCUSED IN HIS 69 YEARS OF DECEIVING OR DEFRAUDING ANYONE, OR OF ANY KIND OF ILLEGAL ACTIVITY!!! Top of Page
JURY VOIR DIRE AND INSTRUCTIONS – PART TWO
VOIR DIRE FALSE, IRRESPONSIBLE, MISLEADING AND “COUNSEL INEFFICIENCY STATEMENTS” BY JOHN R. SMITH, PETTY’S COUNSEL
1) (Vl-P82-L4-6) SMITH: “What I would really like for you to do is to ‘IMAGINE THE CHAIR’, (?), that Al Petty is sitting in”.
COMMENT: This statement, opening J.R.’s VOIR DIRE, is typical of the ineffectiveness of his communication “SKILLS”! How does a person, “IMAGINE A CHAIR(?)”, AS IT RELATES TO EFFECTIVE COUNSEL FOR HIS CLIENT? The “CHAIR IN QUESTION” – AL PETTY’S CHAIR was in full view! How do you “IMAGINE” an object that you’re looking at? One might say this was a ‘slip of the tongue’, but – as will be demonstrated by J.R.’s crude “communication CARELESSNESS, this statement was the “rule” rather than the “exception”. As will be seen throughout the trial, J.R. was not prepared to represent Al Petty in this complex trial. He lied and violated his “oath of office” by stating to the Court that he was “ready to try the case”!
CONFUSING AND MISLEADING STATEMENTS BY SMITH THAT “INFLUENCED THE JURY” TO VOTE AGAINST ANY PERSON REPRESENTED BY HIM.
2) (V1-P82-L14-20) SMITH: “And if you have some negative connotation about what you hear during Voir Dire, whether we bring it up or not, you owe it to Al Petty, you owe it to yourself and you owe it to this country to say, “ you know what, next week there’s going to be a drug deal, next week after that, maybe a bank robbery, I just don’t think I’ll sit on this jury”. And, as I talk to you the next few minutes, I want you to think about that”!
COMMENT: ONE MAY ASK, ‘THINK ABOUT WHAT???’ What did J.R. say? What was the Jury expected to “think about”? If he was referring to the fact that the government could find NO crime committed by Al Petty, but were ‘prophesying’ that he MAY commit one, it was a terrible attempt. Top of Page
FALSE AND MISLEADING STATEMENT #3 by J.R. SMITH
(V1-P83-L7-11) SMITH: “And along with working with persons all the way from ‘NASA’ (?), on down to Nashville and ‘EVERYTHING’ (?), also he was ‘THINKING ABOUT ECONOMICS’, ‘MAKING MONEY’, like we all do, and HE LEARNED ABOUT A MARKETING SYSTEM THAT SOMETIMES IS REFERRED TO AS ‘DIGITAL ECONOMICS’ (?)”
COMMENT: The truth is as follows:
A)Al Petty never told J.R. or anyone, that he “worked at NASA”, (he did not “work at NASA)”!
Al Petty never told J.R. or anyone, that he “worked at NASA”, (he did not “work at NASA)”!B)What does “EVERYTHING” encompass?
What does “EVERYTHING” encompass?C)Al Petty was NOT “THINKING ABOUT ECONOMICS” at all while working in Texas, Calif. and Nashville in the music industry! Al Petty was successfully FOCUSING on the Creation of Revolutionary Music and DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY during that period in his life, (over 50 years!)
Al Petty was NOT “THINKING ABOUT ECONOMICS” at all while working in Texas, Calif. and Nashville in the music industry! Al Petty was successfully FOCUSING on the Creation of Revolutionary Music and DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY during that period in his life, (over 50 years!)D)Al Petty did not “LEARN ABOUT A MARKETING SYSTEM”! That had to be a CONFUSING AND MISLEADING statement to a Jury who was being so skillfully manipulated by the Prosecution to convict Al Petty of charges for which he was not even on trial!
Al Petty did not “LEARN ABOUT A MARKETING SYSTEM”! That had to be a CONFUSING AND MISLEADING statement to a Jury who was being so skillfully manipulated by the Prosecution to convict Al Petty of charges for which he was not even on trial!E) AL PETTY DID NOT “LEARN ABOUT A MARKETING SYSTEM”! There was NO Marketing System in existence to satisfy the creative mind and high yield productivity of Al Petty. At the age of 62 years, for the FIRST time in his life, Al Petty made the decision to enter the Financial World and help as many persons as possible, get out of debt and make a lot of money. Al Petty did not “LEARN About a marketing System”. During FIVE YEARS of FOCUSED EFFORT, AL PETTY CREATED the TELECOM2000 COMPLEX DIGITAL MARKETING SYSTEM. This system WAS BASED on the “PRINCIPLES OF DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY” that he created in the recording industry; AND THE SAME DIGITAL PRINCIPLES he developed that enabled Al Petty to play more music than anyone on “PLANET EARTH”, while cutting the costs of recording albums, cassettes and C.D.’s by more than 90%! This same DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY Al developed in the Recording Industry was applied to the Long Distance and Cell Phone Industry, also resulting in cutting the OPERATIONAL AND MARKETING COSTS of L.D. AND CELL PHONES by 90%! THIS is what Al Petty was all about, and THIS SAME INGENUITY is what caused the government to SHUT HIM DOWN! These are the “TRUTHFUL-FACTS” that JOHN R. SMITH SHOULD HAVE BEEN IMPARTING to the Jury, instead of his own FABRICATION of “How Al Petty reached this courtroom today”! If “INEFFECTIVE J. R.” had laid the proper “foundation of TRUTH” to this Jury at VOIR DIRE, it could have made a BIG DIFFERENCE in the Jury’s PERCEPTION OF THE INTEGRITY AND INGENUITY OF AL PETTY, AND AFFECTED THE OUTCOME!

R. SMITH
(V1-P83-L16-17) SMITH: “He came up with the ‘CONCEPT OF MARKETING’.”
COMMENT: If the JURISTS thought that Al Petty was STUPID enough to think he “came up with the CONCEPT OF MARKETING”, OR that he was “NAÏVE” enough to think the Jurors would believe he “CAME UP WITH THE CONCEPT OF MARKETING”, it should come as no surprise that the Jury believed the lies told by KENNER, MARCHESSAULT, HERSLEY, CUNNINGHAM, HERRARA, HALLEY AND McCABE that convinced the Jury that TeleCom2000 –ALTHOUGH HAVING COMMITTED NO FRAUD – WOULD “COLLAPSE” in the FUTURE! After all, anyone who would say they “CAME UP WITH THE CONCEPT OF MARKETING” would certainly not be capable of Judicially running a business that generated MILLIONS OF DOLLARS! It appears highly unlikely that a JURY that was inundated with the FALSE, FRAUDULENT, CONSPIRATORAL AND DECEPTIVE Statements such as listed here, even BEFORE the trial began, could be expected to produce a FAIR AND JUST decision of “NOT GUILTY” FOR AL PETTY!
FALSE STATEMENT #5 BY J. R. SMITH
(V1-P84-L9-12) SMITH: “Now, you’ve heard of these astronomical “RETURNS ON INVESTMENT” and, yes they were “ASTRONOMICAL INVESTMENTS” and astronomical returns that generated literally millions of dollars.”
COMMENT: J. R. KNEW THAT AL PETTY was NOT a BROKER, BANK, MUTUALS, SECURITIES OR WALL STREET, ETC! J. R. KNEW that NO ONE EVER “INVESTED” IN TELECOM2000. Al Petty had made it extremely clear – from the beginning – to J. R. that Entrepreneurs PURCHASED VIRTUAL LONG DISTANCE AND CELL PHONE STORES FROM TELECOM2000, and that every “PURCHASE CONTRACT” INCLUDED EMPLOYING AL PETTY to GUARANTEE THE SUCCESS OF THEIR TELECOM2000 BUSINESS BY UTILIZING THE DIGITAL MARKETING CONCEPT THAT CREATED THEIR GUARANTEED PURCHASE RETURNS of 500 – 1300%! IT WAS MANDATORY – in order to win the trial for Al Petty, with TRUTH AND FACTS, that J. R. SMITH EFFECTIVELY COMMUNICATED these “FOUNDATIONAL ELEMENTS” to the Jury from the JURY VOIR DIRE, throughout the trial. Instead, rather than studying, understanding and conveying these FOUNDATIONAL ELEMENTS to the Court and the Jury, (AS HE PROMISED, AS ‘A CONDITION OF EMPLOYMENT’), J. R. chose to weave a noose around Al Petty’s neck of FALSE STATEMENTS, HALF-TRUTHS, AND FANTASIES THAT CULMINATED IN HIS LOSS OF THE CASE, as well as a GUILTY VERDICT for Al Petty and a subsequent sentence of 24 years in Prison (LIFE?).
“ASTRONOMICAL INVESTMENTS”! Firstly, there were NO “INVESTMENTS” and secondly, the highest PURCHASE PRICE of $50K would hardly be considered as “ASTRONOMICAL”! However, his statement of “ASTRONOMICAL RETURNS” WAS CORRECT! ANYONE would consider a return on a purchase price of $50,000,
paying returns of $297,000 as ASTRONOMICAL (!) AND, AS A GUARANTEED RETURN, REVOLUTIONARY! John R. Smith should have refused the case if – in fact – he was even capable of facing the REALITY of his INEFFECTIVENESS and in-ability to represent Al Petty!
FALSE STATEMENT #6 BY J.R. SMITH
(P85-L4-8) SMITH: “So we have here OVER A HUNDRED counts charged against Al Petty in this case. It could be argued that you could do just as good by proving up one ‘CASE OF THIS’, one ‘CASE OF THAT’ and ‘ONE CASE OF THE THIRD’. However, THAT’S WHAT WE’RE HERE FOR. THEY SADDLED THIS HORSE AND WE’RE GOING TO RIDE IT”.
COMMENT: J. R. did not even know the number of counts in the indictment! His irresponsible false statement –‘guesstimate’ – of “OVER A HUNDRED” once again damaged the credibility of his client, Al Petty, in the minds of the JURORS, because as they were to learn soon, and the Court already knew, there were 98 Counts, not “over a hundred”. How could he defend Al Petty against an indictment that, apparently, he was not even familiar with? Surely, by now the Jury must be thinking, “ANYONE REPRESENTED” by the “HAYSEED-CHARLETON” MUST BE GUILTY!
What was J. R. talking about when he said, “BY PROVING UP ONE CASE” OF THIS, THAT, AND THE THIRD”? He follows this with “THAT’S WHAT WE’RE HERE FOR”! If the Jury was wondering just what they were “HERE FOR”, they must have been really confused by J. R.’s “NON-EXPLANATION’ OF ‘WHAT WE’RE HERE FOR!” (Tongue in Cheek) Then J. R. finally reveals the secret of “WHAT ARE WE HERE FOR?” Why, “we’re here for a RODEO!” “THEY SADDLE THEM AND WE RIDE THEM! GOT IT??!
FALSE STATEMENT #7 BY J.R.S.
(V1-P85-L18-24) SMITH: “But this business is very unique because I would say you INVEST, (COMMENT: NO INVESTMENT!) $1,300 with MY COMPANY, (COMMENT: HIS COMPANY?) and what you’re going to get is “X” NUMBER OF MINUTES, HUNDREDS, (COMMENT: ACTUALLY 3,000 - 5,000), of minutes, of Telephone, Long Distance Service. You’re going to get ‘X’ number---, (?) You’re going to get a cell phone and you’re going to ‘HAVE THE RIGHT’, (?), to own a business, PART OF TELECOM USA, MAYBE McDONALDS, who knows?”
COMMENT: WOW! WHAT A CONFUSING AND ILLITERATE DESCRIPTION OF TELECOM2000! False and misleading statements:
A)“INVEST” (NO INVESTORS)!
“INVEST” (NO INVESTORS)!B)“MY COMPANY” (not even acceptable as a “figure of Speech” – very confusing! Surely the Jurors did not interpret this as J.R. owning part of Al Petty’s company??
“MY COMPANY” (not even acceptable as a “figure of Speech” – very confusing! Surely the Jurors did not interpret this as J.R. owning part of Al Petty’s company??C)“HUNDREDS OF MINUTES” (USUALLY 3,000 TO 5,000) wow!
“HUNDREDS OF MINUTES” (USUALLY 3,000 TO 5,000) wow!D)“HAVE THE RIGHT TO OWN”(NOT “HAVE THE RIGHT TO OWN”, BUT ACTUALLY PURCHASE AND OWN!)
“HAVE THE RIGHT TO OWN”(NOT “HAVE THE RIGHT TO OWN”, BUT ACTUALLY PURCHASE AND OWN!)E)“PART OF TELECOM2000” (once again a person did not invest and become a partner-owner, of TeleCom2000! THEY PURCHASED A TELECOM2000 VIRTUAL BUSINESS! AL PETTY WAS THE SOLE OWNER OF TELECOM2000 NETWORK –“LOCK, STOCK AND BARREL”- as they say!
“PART OF TELECOM2000” (once again a person did not invest and become a partner-owner, of TeleCom2000! THEY PURCHASED A TELECOM2000 VIRTUAL BUSINESS! AL PETTY WAS THE SOLE OWNER OF TELECOM2000 NETWORK –“LOCK, STOCK AND BARREL”- as they say!F) “TELECOM USA” (It blows the mind to think that a person would, in all honesty, feel they could represent a Man and a Company that they did not even know the NAME of. J. R. often spoke of “Telecom2000” as “TelecomUSA”. By now, considering the False statements by Marchessault and J.R., (not to mention the upcoming LIES by Traci,), the Jury MUST HAVE BEEN THINKING “WHAT CIRCUS DID I JOIN”? and “the CLOWNS must be John R. Smith and Al Petty! OF COURSE HE’S GUILTY! HE’S A NUT!!”
“TELECOM USA” (It blows the mind to think that a person would, in all honesty, feel they could represent a Man and a Company that they did not even know the NAME of. J.

Smith and Al Petty! OF COURSE HE’S GUILTY! HE’S A NUT!!”G)Then the confusing climax was reached as J.R. made a mockery of Al Petty-TeleCom2000 when J.R. ended this phase with, “RIGHT TO OWN A BUSINESS, - - - - , MAYBE MCDONALD’S! WOW, HOW DID MCDONALDS GET INTO TELECOM2000? Talk about confused!! “HELLO, JURY PANEL, ARE YOU STILL THERE? IS THERE ANYONE WHO MIGHT STILL WANT TO JOIN THIS CIRCUS”?, is the only message Smith conveyed!

(V1-P86-L12-14) SMITH: “ALL THEY, (THE GOV’T), SAW IS THAT THERE WAS SEVEN MILLION, SIX AND A HALF MILLION DOLLARS OUT HERE IN THE BANK.”
COMMENT: JOHN R. SMITH CONTINUES TO DISPLAY HIS IGNORANCE AND INEFFICIENCY. THE AMOUNT OF MONEY IN ALL ACCOUNTS WAS 5.3M. This figure was common knowledge among all legal participants. This false statement, along with other statements that were contradictory with the government’s statements forced the Jury into a position of determining “WHO IS TELLING THE TRUTH”. As evidence and testimony PROVED that the GOVERNMENT’S FIGURES were more accurate, (by far!), than the numbers quoted by the Defendant’s counsel, an increasing mistrust of the DEFENDANT was generated by his INEFFECTIVE AND ARROGANT COUNSEL!
FALSE STATEMENT #9 by J.R. SMITH
(V1-P86-L17-18) SMITH: - - -“And we never heard of Al Petty and we never heard of Telecom ‘USA’."
COMMENT: Once again, J. R. doesn’t even Know the name of the Company that was a “Co - FOCAL POINT” of this trial. And this was after hearing Al Petty refer to TeleCom2000 hundreds of times, reading the name in thousands of documents prior to the trial as well as hearing the term “TeleCom2000” numerous times from Gregg Marchessault and others on the very morning prior to his address in VOIR DIRE.

THE ALL IMPORTANT DATE THAT THE GOVERNMENT SEIZED THE FUNDS!As Jurors were making notes throughout the trial, and as they compared their notes of J.R. with the testimony and evidence, their distrust of Al Petty and his inept Counsel was magnified – all the way to a verdict of GUILTY and 24 years in PRISON for Al Petty.
