What They Stole From Mark

When you hear about theft, you immediately think someone is talking about monetary assets but that’s not the most important thing with me.   They stole from my family.  You see this happened in 2003 and it is now 2009.  My children have been robbed of their childhood innocence and their right to feel safe and secure in their own home.  They have been terrorized.    My family has been forced to live with the fear that their father may be taken away and put in prison for the rest of his life.  They have been forced to live with the fact that their mother was arrested for something she did not do.  They now sit on the edge of their seat awaiting who or what is next.  That is terrorism. 

My civil suit filed against Pete Moore, Pete Moore Chevrolet Inc and its manager Rick Hamilton was over the theft of my internet business.  It was one of the first of its kind.  All of this could have been settled civilly but instead power and greed took over.  Power, makes you first think of Pete Moore and his family ties to General Motors, but no, that One is greed.  The ones with the Power are the attorneys that represent the Insurance Company behind Pete Moore Chevrolet.  Pete and his attorneys had the power to recruit the Escambia County Sheriff’s Department to arrest me.  Pete and his attorneys had the power to recruit the State Attorney’s Office to prosecute me.  Pete’s attorney made me an offer to settle my civil suit for an insignificant amount.  I refused their offer.   

The chain of events that happened after that refusal to settle robbed me of more than words can express.  I want to point out some documents that My Team refers to as the “Smoking Gun”.  Pay attention to the time frame. 

Document 1:  September 9, 2004.  (6 Million Dollar Letter)A letter from my Civil Attorney, Jim Chase.  The civil case could have been settled for a few hundred thousand dollars, all my debts paid in full, a secure job running the internet business that I developed and maintaining me on as a limited partner.  Or, it could have been settled with a one time cash pay out based on my 2002 Business Appraisal less any debts that occurred regarding the business.  But, as you can see from the document, “Civil Theft: under statute 772.11, states that I am entitled to three times the value of my company.”  According to the appraisal, in 2006, my company would have been worth in excess of $12 million.  The appraiser, Marvin Beasely, stated this projection was at a realistic growth rate of 35%.  This appraisal was done in 2002 and did not take into consideration Amazon, Yahoo, Google and countless others that exceeded the 35% growth rate that Mr. Beasely used.  These sites grew at more than 300%.  My site was also growing at a rate of over 300% but Mr. Beasely chose to be conservative.

Document 2:  March 28, 2006.  This is a fax to Investigator Charles Busbee with Escambia County Sheriff’s Department from Bozeman, Jenkins & Matthews, PA.  This document was responsible for my arrest.  Please note the final line on Page 3 of the document, counting the coversheet. 

It states “Please contact me if you feel you need more information/evidence to prosecute Mark Turner for fraud, perjury, conspiracy, theft, embezzlement…etc.”  From:  M. Kevin Hausfeld, Esq. 

Now this line states in black and white what their intent was.  I called their law firm and they don’t even have a criminal attorney on staff.  See YouTube.  After reading this document, let me further explain who these people are. 

          These attorneys are representing Pete Moore, the man I am currently suing civilly, and his company Pete Moore Chevrolet, through his Insurance Policy.  Now, who are the people the letter claims I defrauded?   David Turner, none other than the man Pete Moore is suing civilly.  Why is Pete suing David and representing David at the same time?  It sounds confusing but it’s simply Greed.  Let me explain.  They need a victim to make me go away.  If I’m in prison, then I can’t fight them civilly.  I am not the first person this has happened to.  This law firm has done this to others as well.  But what I would like to know is why the Escambia County Sheriff’s Department, knowing that I am suing Pete Moore, would even take the time to read and/or investigate an outsider’s opinion.  This is where conspiracy and corruption run head on.  I realize anyone can report a crime but Mr.  Busbee told me and Jim Chase that he was a former neighbor of Robin Christiansen, one of David Turner’s lenders.  It was on videotape where Busbee claims “this investigation was brought on by the State Attorney’s Office” when in fact Busbee was going verbatim by Hausfeld’s fabrication and presenting them as if they were made by the State Attorney’s Office.  The document he was using for his investigation IS Document 2 and is clearly from Pete’s attorneys, not David’s.  Either way, they are all conspiring together. 

Here’s what happened …

My brother David Turner and I had a dispute that could have been handled civilly.  Instead, Pete’s legal team got together and fabricated documents to have me arrested.  They did this in an attempt to silence me.  I was suing Pete for stealing my business.  Kevin Hausfeld was acting on the senior partner’s instruction according to a speakerphone conversation he had with one of my criminal attorneys John Beroset.  At the time, John informed Hausfeld that this was a courtesy call and that we would be taking his deposition.  Hausfeld stated that Matthews knew more about the case and he was the one who needed to be deposed.  Matthews is one of the senior attorneys in the firm.  Matthews told Hausfeld to listen to David and find any type of breach that I might have committed.  Hausfeld prepared volumes of binders which Matthews instructed him to forward to the Escambia County Sheriff’s Department.  A special investigator Busbee took the case and he was the former next door neighbor of another conspirator, Robin Christiansen.  Then Busbee contacts me.
 
Up to this point it was civil, I thought.  I had not planned on going after anyone for criminal activity.  Being unaware of the conspiracy plotted behind my back, I just worried about feeding my family.  I thought, like any other American would, that this was going to work itself out civilly and if I was wrong then I would lose.  If I was right, which I knew I was, then I would win in the end.  So let’s do this one at a time so you’re not confused like the jury was.  Greg Smith, Mike Guttman, Larry Matthews, Kevin Hausfeld, and Russ Edgar are all lawyers.  David Turner is Anthony Ramsey’s Father-in-law.  Robin Christiansen and Charles Christiansen are brothers.  Pete Moore is Rick Hamilton’s employer.  These men got together.  Why?  For the money.  They conspired and STOLE MY FIRST amendment right to free speech.  They committed SLAPP.  That was their biggest mistake. 
Legal explanation for SLAPP (strategic lawsuit against public participation) alleged abuses of the legal system by individuals or corporations who utilize the courts as a weapon to retaliate against whistle blowers, victims, or to silence another's speech. RICO could be alleged if it can be shown that lawyers and/or their clients conspired and collaborated to concoct fictitious legal complaints solely in retribution and retaliation for themselves having been brought before the courts. . 
My attorney, Barry Beroset attempted to show that this was a civil matter and that Pete never filed criminal charges until after he realized Kevin Hausfeld’s fabrications would not hold up.  I filed a civil suit in September 2004 and they arrested me July 2006 but Pete was not a victim.

The Court:  “While he is handing this out, go ahead and pass that down and take you copy of the instructions.  I do want to have your attention this way and I do need to give you one instruction.  The comment of Assistant State Attorney in his argument, in his rebuttal, that Pete Moore did not bring a civil case against the defendant regarding the proceeds of these car sales because the State had filed these criminal charges, is not supported by the evidence in this matter, and you are to disregard that comment and not consider it in any way whatsoever in this case”.

Mr. Barry Beroset:  “What I was going to say is basically what you have here is a defense attorney trying to use the criminal justice system against a client when Pete Moore never reported it.  He never reported it.” 
The Court:  “Yeah.  I know.  So this defense attorney might be the one that should be subject to whatever sanctions appropriate.”
Read more… Vol. 10 of Trial Transcripts Page 1952 Line 7-15 Russ is explaining to Judge Jones the reason why he threatened to have my civil attorney Jim Chase arrested if he testified that he advised me to place the money in his Trust Account.  Jim’s testimony would have eliminated the Money Laundering Charge and taken all INTENT out of the equation.    

Mr. Edgar:  “Your Honor, I think it’s my obligation to tell this Court and this is what I did, I came in and informed the Court that if they call this witness, I suggest the Court should advise him of his rights.  I think it’s my obligation to do that.  If I think that this witness is going to say things that might cause him to be charged, I should not lay in wait for this witness if I know that he might do that.  And I think it’s my ethical obligation…”

My attorney, Barry Beroset, told me that Russ said “If Jim takes the stand, I’m going to arrest him!”  My comment to Barry was, “What did you say?”  He replied, “I told him he had 16 to 18 months to take this witness’ deposition and never did…why not?”  Barry brought to the Court’s attention and I am bringing to the Florida Bar’s attention.  This is witness tampering, intimidation and threatening a witness.  Jim Chase never took the stand.  He called his attorney who advised him to take the 5th Amendment. 
It has just BEGUN.

Thank you, law students for making me aware of SLAPP.  The information you sent gives me hope,
 
Mark Turner
