🎬 Clerked Out: The Heather Benedict Story

One signature. Eight years. Still missing.

I can finally share something I’ve been holding back:
My story is being documented.

That’s right — a filmmaker has picked up the case. For the past several months, I’ve been followed as I fight to get one missing court order entered into the record — and in doing so, expose a pattern of misconduct, obstruction, and institutional betrayal at the highest levels of Pierce County government.

This isn’t fiction. It’s not dramatized. And it’s not over.

📜 Clerked Out — What It’s About

In 2012, I lost my mom.
In 2016, I stood before the Pierce County Superior Court with a final signed probate order.
But the order was never entered. Never docketed. It vanished.

Since then, I’ve fought alone:

• Filing motions

• Researching statutes

• Uncovering unauthorized government interference in private probate

• Confronting a court system that turned inward to protect itself instead of the public

The Clerk’s Office crumbled around me. Staff quit. Whistleblowers were silenced. State audits revealed financial chaos. Then, a political insider — not publicly confirmed — was installed as interim clerk without any lawful vote.

🎥 Why Clerked Out Matters Now

It’s not about just one court order anymore.
It’s about what happens when courts won’t obey their own rules — and what it takes for one woman to hold them accountable.

This documentary, tentatively titled Clerked Out: The Heather Benedict Story, follows my real journey — not just in courtrooms, but across every forum I’ve used to demand justice:
🎙️ Pierce County Council
📜 Federal courts
📬 Public complaints
📽️ And now, the public eye

The County can no longer deny what I’ve documented:

• A missing record

• A violated Constitution

• A clerk's office run by political appointment, not public authority

👀 What Comes Next

The cameras are rolling. The record is clear. The public is waking up.

I’ll be releasing behind-the-scenes updates and early clips from filming as this project develops. Until then, Pierce County should know:

I am still here.
I am still pro se.
And I am no longer alone.

Clerked Out, Called Back

Two orders gone, they thought I’d fade

A silent clerk, a rigged parade

But I got louder every year

I made the truth what they all fear

(Chorus)

I’m not done

I’m not backing down

Clerked out — but I wear the crown

One voice, no robe, no spin

This time I get docketed in

Still standing

Still calling them out

This is the part where I turn it around
