President Bush: Please Bring Ted Maher Home From Banana-Republic Monaco!

American Green Beret veteran and accomplished neonatal nurse Ted Maher has now been held 537 days without trial in Monaco's prison on trumped-up and false charges -- charges of causing the deaths of billionaire banker Edmond Safra and Ted's fellow nurse, Vivian Torrente on December 3, 1999. In truth, Ted fought valiantly against two armed, masked intruders to defend Edmond and Vivian and save their lives. During the struggle, Ted suffered severe knife wounds that required one hundred staples to close.

Billionaire banker Edmond Safra was cooperating with the FBI, who was investigating the IMF/Russian loans. Needing a convenient scapegoat for the murder of Safra, Monaco police subjected Ted to three days of grueling torture designed to extort a false confession from him. (see description in "BASIC TIMELINE" in Thread 1 - http://206.112.97.70/forum/a3ad8b097272d.htm ).

Monaco continues to hold Ted incommunicado, preventing him from sending or receiving mail. In fact, they restrict his communication with his family to one telephone call a week. This call is only allowed to last a few minutes and is always monitored closely to prevent any discussion of the case. Ted is forced by his jailers to take a psychotropic medication and is regularly "interrogated" by the Monaco judge -- Patricia Richet. Reports have been received that Judge Richet is a violent person who has displayed unstable behavior in the past. She allegedly has a history of assaulting a fellow judge, putting him in the hospital for a week. She also tears up letters from Ted's children in front of Ted rather than let him read them.

Hundreds of family, friends, work associates, parents of patients, and Army veterans who served with Ted have vouched for him as being a loyal husband, loving father, and an exemplary professional of great skill and compassion. Ted has also been defended by then-chairman of the House International Relations Committee Ben Gilman and Ted's congresswoman Sue Kelly, who have written Prince Rainier III of Monaco on Ted's behalf. Monaco has no evidence of any crime by Ted; they have no witnesses and no credible case against him. Even worse, Monaco has planted false evidence and suppressed vast amounts of exculpatory evidence -- even passing a special Monaco law that enables them to hold Ted four years without trial.

The Geneva prosecutor has said that Safra was killed for his cooperation with the FBI regarding the laundering through Safra's Republic National Bank of $4.8 billion in IMF loans to Russia.

Regardless of the reason "why," it is obvious that Ted Maher is a scapegoat for a murder by others. We are working to obtain his release and to correct the grave injustice being done to an American Green beret veteran and medical professional.

Article I found translated from French to English. In it, it states the court case for Ted Maher will only be in 2003!

A re-entry charged Bleaching, swindles, sex cases, crimes... Justice Monegasque is not unemployed. The point on a legal re-entry charged C ' is on next 9 September that the lawsuit in call will be held of Francesco Iagher. Condemned to four years of prison on last 9 July for concealment of swindle closes, this tax adviser would have taken part in the embezzlement belonging to the heirs to the General Mobutu, the ex-leader of Zaire. Assembling swindle: 2,7 million dollars. In the same business, the Parquet floor made call of the decision release the bankers Sergio Casillo and Jeannine Iotta. The substitute of the prosecutor, Domenica Auter, in démord not. This last, which had required in their opposition respectively six months to prison closes and a fine from 2.500 to 3.000 euros, estimates that the swindle could not have taken place without the negligence, even the complicity of these two financial. Another financial business which one did not finish intending to speak: Hobbs-Melville. William Fogwell, chairman of SAM Hobbs-Melville, imprisoned at the prison since last 26 April, has just made call of its refusal of handing-over in freedom. Extradited of Poland and continued for "swindle, breach of trust, forgery and use of forgeries, infringement to the legislation on the management of wallets and the activities stock exchange and exercise of a commercial activity without authorization", it challenges the validity of its warrant for arrest. Result of its call during September. In all, 300 complaints were recorded against him and the instruction continues. As for his/her daughter, Shelley, also implied in the business, it is always in the United States in spite of an international letter of request emitted by the examining magistrate Monegasque in September 2000. The American authorities do not seem not laid out to extradite it. Schumacher and Leconte Still swindled a financial business with the lawsuit Stephen Troth which will be held on next 15 October. Old in charge of customers to the HSBC Republic, it is shown to have diverted 20 million euros on the accounts of its customers. Among those, Michael Schum-acher and Henri The-tale. Its request for handing-over in freedom having been refused him, it, also, made him call of this decision. The court will rule the next week. With regard to the Russian couple imprisoned since the last Great price for detention of funds of suspect origin (20 million dollars), it still remains in prison. According to prevented, this money would come from their Muscovite stores. Justice Monegasque will send a police officer within six months. Grivelery in the Louis XV As for the very media lawsuit Safra, it will be necessary to await the end of the year even 2003 for the judgement of the male nurse Ted Maher, that is to say three years after the facts. Late constitutions of civil part, change of examining magistrate, resort of prevented to appear before the correctional court and not criminal, are as many elements which will have delayed the behaviour of the lawsuit. The court of revision will slice during September to decide before which prevented court will appear. Let us recall that this male nurse who wanted to pass for a hero to the eyes of his owner, the billionaire Edmond Safra, would have put fire at the apartment of this one and simulated an aggression. Instead of saving its employer, this one dies asphyxiated in the bathroom with its nurse. Ted Maher acknowledges the facts three days after, but its motivations remain turbid. As regards croupier Monegasque who cheated with the caster in favour of his accomplice beausoleillois, the lawsuit should be held within three months. The assistant manager of table recognized the facts. Assembling swindle: 30.000 unusual E Plus in principality, a business of crime passionnel. In September 2001, Christine L killed her spouse of a blow of rifle. The instruction is in hand and one does not know any more about the drama for the moment. The lawsuit should take place about Easter. A little lighter, in the series of the obvious offences, the judgment of a SD the obvious offences, the judgment of a SDF ukrainien on last 30 August at 15 days of prison closes for grivelery. A few days before, Vladislav Bespalyi dines with the Coffee on Paris. When the addition of 500 euros arrives, it specifies with the waiter that it does not have the means of paying. It is led to the slackened station then. The following day, it goes to the Louis XV. With the menu of its dinner at Ducasse: lobster, caviar, foie gras and champagne. On the whole, the invoice is of 1.700 euros. Even reaction at the time of the addition. This time, it will eat gracefully but in prison...

DAY 1,017 WRONGLY IMPRISONED WITHOUT TRIAL ON EXTORTED FALSE CONFESSION

Monaco to delay trail until January 2003 soonest.

Monaco: not just a police state, but a conspiracy of putzheads to boot.

Consider:

MONACO POLICE SPENT THREE DAYS HOLDING TED IN FOUR POINT RESTRAINT DEPRIVING HIM OF SLEEP AND THREATENING HIS FAMILY--

. . .but cannot hold a trial for THREE YEARS!

Why? Because it is all lies, and Monaco knows that best of all.

Indeed, Monaco prosecutor Serdet lied from the first that Ted used drugs--

Daniel Serdet thinks he is Richard Pryor caught in bed with a hooker by his own wife:

"Who are you going to believe, me, Daniel Serdet, or some lying hospital tox screen?"

Daniel Serdet, you are a lying m-----f-----. Hope that helps.

And Judge d'Instruction Patricia Richet, reappointed for being a police puppet (per Profonde Gorge), shreiking at Ted for two years, "I know you will be found guilty!" Tearing up the letters his children wrote him--

Suddenly Patricia Bidet is washed away--pfffft--whooosh--finit, gone, vanished, took a powder, blew town, blew somebody.

Monaco Director of Juridical Affairs wrote six pages of caca del toro to Ted's congresswoman Sue Kelly:

O non non non, weee deed nawt abyoooose Ted--Non! Weee pooot a meeent on heez peelow evvvvrrry night.

Yo, Patrice Davost, you sack of compost: Why no trial then in THREE YEARS? Maybe your case is just weasel s---, right, Weasel?

A Monaco judge recently resigned in disgust--Monaco is so corrupt, but when investigation implicates Stephanie, arret!

Monaco is a sewer. Tourism is tanking. The shadowy powers are scrambling to remove the egg from their faces.

To avoid the world-wide embarrassment which is guaranteed them by a trial, they try to delay--

Michael Griffith is dangerous to their coverup and must be excluded.

Dr. Michael Baden must not be allowed to expose the sham autopsy "evidence".

Dominick Dunne must never sit in a Monaco courtroom to write about the Stalinesque show trial.

But delay, delay, delay is not to hold back the sea, but to make the levee waterlogged.

MONACO, YOUR CROWN WILL DROWN--

QUIT PLAYING THE CLOWN AND PUT THE DRAWBRIDGE DOWN

FREE TED MAHER NOW, MONACO

DAY 1,019 WRONGLY IMPRISONED WITHOUT TRIAL ON EXTORTED FALSE CONFESSION

Monaco is a police state at its worst.

The recently resigned Monaco judge wrote a book about Monaco corruption.

Judge in Monaco reports that a money-laundering investigation touching Princess Stephanie was stopped.

Law means nothing to the principality--only power.

Ted Maher is innocent, and Monaco has no case.

This Monaco has proved every day for three years.

Three days to beat a confession out of an innocent man--

And three years to cowardly conceal the corruption behind delays.

Monaco will attempt to finesse its fraud in a swift, secret Stalinesque show trial;

Concealing all exculpatory evidence;

Trotting out a dog-and-pony show, the paid-off Sonia and her lies;

The slanderous Serdet and his lies;

The planted "evidence", the extorted "confession"--

All bullsh!t all the time: Monaco: a mountain of manure.

The scandal will spread and tourism will further decline.

Ted will be freed--how much will you let it cost you, Monaco?

MONACO'S CORRUPTION IS A HOLE IN ITS HULL

Freeing Ted Maher now keeps Albert from getting soaked.

"Monaco will attempt to finesse its fraud in a swift, secret Stalinesque show trial;
Concealing all exculpatory evidence..."

Let 'em try it.
That kind of assinine tack is exactly what it might take to get the attention of this, our, lazy government's attention.

Who, it might be said up to now?
Have quietly sat back to watch the Monaco "justice system" deal with this -- by granting Ted Maher a fair trial -- *instead* of the US interferring, beforehand?
Knowing our (sometimes gutless) government?
That'd be the *political thing they'd elect to do first in an honest effort to prevent any hint they were meddling.

Just a guess, mind you; but, might be true, nonetheless.
Since let us never forget, Ted Maher's an American citizen no matter how one slices & dices the matter.

So, let Monaco just try pulling a boner like that; just try it, Monaco.

On behalf of Ted Maher...

DAY 1,020 WRONGLY IMPRISONED WITHOUT TRIAL ON EXTORTED FALSE CONFESSION

Dominick Dunne speaks and everyone’s all ears

Afterwards he was asked about the death of Edmond Safra and the “nurse” who is in jail in Monte Carlo. Edmond Safra, he pointed out, had TWELVE bodyguards, all former Mossad members, protecting him. NONE of them was on duty the night of his mysterious death. “It wasn’t the nurse who ordered that Edmond Safra have no security” that night, Dominick pointed out, adding to the mix additional coincidences that the nurse (accused of being responsible for the death) also had no control over. The nurse, Dominick said, is now “languishing” in jail rather than the government of Monaco bringing justice to the case. “Prince Rainier is like Louis XIV,” Dominick said, “and he just wants this matter to go away. But,” he added, reiterating the matters of Martha Moxley, and Chandra Levy, “it won’t go away.”

MONACO, DOMINICK DUNNE SOLVED THE MOXLEY MURDER--AND HE WON'T GO AWAY
