Timothy Regis calls for Odor! Odor! Odor in the Court!

Odor! Odor! Odor in the Court! Court reporter Timothy Regis rejects a request for his court transcription due to a smell of perfume.  Court already stinks and this denial letter sure smells fishy.  Tim Regis is the Court Reporter for the Pierce County Presiding Judge Frank Cuthbertson.

In other landmark events, on September 30, 2016, I went before the Presiding Judge Frank Cuthbertson by myself.  He ridiculed me as a  pro-se attorney and I reminded him that the Pierce County Bar Association could not provide an attorney referral due to the nature of going against Ken Luce, a former judge, city attorney, and prosecutor.  Unless he court ordered me to hire an attorney, I remain pro-se.  Ken Luce and Anthony Taylor were absent.  Cuthbertson was unprepared to hear my case which the clerk did not properly note on the docket.  Thus, Cuthbertson asked for me to reschedule in November and I have. Until then, there is a restraining order on selling any of my late-mother's assets, including Casa Molly home in Cabo San Lucas in the Santa Carmela housing development.  Thank you all for your support.

Felons! Felons! Felons! Pierce County Council - Wake Up and Smell the Corruption! September 13, 2016

Pierce County Executive, Pat McCarthy, appoints Class B Felons to the County Clerks office (Kevin Stock and Daniel Ladenburg).  McCarthy is unfit to serve the public as Washington State Auditor.

Letter from Mr. Al Rose on Pat McCarthy's letterhead.  We recorded our conversation with Mr. Rose and advised we would upload it for public reference.  He said we could not do that because he is NOT A PUBLIC OFFICIAL.  If he doesn't work for the people, who is Al Rose and why is he using our elected official's letterhead and writing letters? Is he a lawyer? Who pays his salary?  Has anyone done a background check on him?

Who is Al Rose? Pat McCarthy's Pit Bull

Letter from Mr. Al Rose on Pat McCarthy's letterhead.  Mr. Rose stated he is NOT A PUBLIC OFFICIAL.  If he doesn't work for the people, who is Al Rose and why is he using our elected official's letterhead and writing letters? Is he a lawyer? Who pays his salary?  Has anyone done a background check on him?

And here is Al Rose during an interview September 30, 2016 admitting an order went missing, contradicting his own letter.   

Pat McCarthy and Pierce County Council incompetent, lacks of transparency, disgrace to justice

UNIMPRESSED meeting Pat McCarthy, Pierce County Executive and CORRUPTION within County Council, who bills at $25,384 an hour, per council member.

Citizens outraged McCarthy allows destruction of public records.

Background: On May 16, 2016, I obtained a court ruling my late-mother passed away without a will.  The county clerk shredded the order. Ms. McCarthy appointed the clerk and is directly responsible for any negligence.  Her attorney, Mr. Al Rose, stated that the action of destroying government property is within the law because an audio transcription still exists and that I will never get a meeting with her, ever.

Public outrage against County Executive Pat McCarthy

 It is under Patricia McCarthy's leadership and management who single handily can fix this shredding of the document, no one else.  I have been before the presiding judge, county counsel, attorney general, court of appeals, who have all referred me back to the executive who refuses to meet with me.

McCarthy, "Incompetent"

Tuesday, August 23rd - The weekly County Council started at 3:00PM and commenced at 3:05PM.  Since each of the 7 members makes $111,000 annually, when working at only 5 minutes a week, they earn $25,384 per hour.   Curious on this high paying career, I followed the counsel members down to the 7th floor, Executive Offices, to see what was going on.  The etched window allowed me to peak inside to see the elected officials: Rick Talbert, Doug Richardson and Pat McCarthy meeting with businessmen.

I watched out of mere curiosity and was approached by three sheriffs demanding I leave and I replied, "Sure, if you can tell me what law I am breaking." They responded for "interrupting a meeting". I then whispered back, "Officers, you are being loud and the ones interrupting a meeting. I haven't said a word nor interrupted any meeting." Silence. I continued to watch while the 3 sheriffs stood across the hall staring at me the entire time I watched (creepy).  Meanwhile, in the women's restroom, there were now signs already placed that stated "PAT MCCARTHY END THE CORRUPTION UNDER YOUR LEADERSHIP" and "YOU SHOULD BE FIRED KEVIN STOCK, COUNTY CLERK". The sheriffs were men so they would not see the signs, unless they were transgender and used the women's restroom.  My friend Michael ran to grab my video camera and when he returned and saw the 3 sheriffs announced he was going to the men's restroom and walked by us and never returned. Joey said he'd check on Michael but I didn't want to be alone with these 3 sheriffs staring at me; their glances and stares were, quite frankly, disgusting.  I went with Joey and when my friend was not in the men's restroom, we decided to take the secret elevator down to the 1st floor to continue the search for him. On the 1st floor, he was still nowhere in sight.  Yet, oddly,  same sheriffs from the 7th floor appeared now on the 1st floor looking for me and my dog.  They approached me to tell me the secret elevator was only for prisoners and not public use.  I thanked them for the information and agreed to not sneak out of the 7th floor like that again. 

Scooter the Mini Schnauzer dressed up like a prisoner.

So, it was time to go back to the 7th floor to look for our friend who disappeared.  The sheriff insisted he go on the elevator with us (the correct elevator of course).  When we arrived back to the 7th floor, the meeting had concluded and members were dispersed throughout the floor.  The signs from the women's restrooms were being taken from the restroom to Ms. McCarthy's office directly.  The sheriff called my name twice, "Heather..Heather", I was very afraid I would be arrested for littering, leaving my beloved signs in the restroom.  The sheriff was very nice and said if I wanted a meeting with Ms. McCarthy to go now and it only be me (and my dog Scooter).  I entered the meeting room and it was herself and possibly her assistant Colleen, however she never identified herself.  I told them how I have taken 3 1/2 MONTHS off of work.  I explained my situation - the clerk shredded an order, my mother passed away and is now missing because the county allowed her to be removed before pronouncing her passed. She coldly responded, "Let me look into this."  I did ask her for a personal opinion, under her leadership did she think it was OK for a clerk shred government documents, reminding her it was a felon.  She looked perplexed and spouted out, "Well, there's two sides to every story."  Complete idiot.  I also asked her to clarify the end of life law in Pierce County and to figure out why a citizen does not need to be medically pronounced dead before they are taken away to the funeral home.  Again, perplexed and clueless look as a response.  Pat McCarthy oversees a $1 billion budget and is responsible for the lives over nearly 1 million citizens.  She cost a citizen 3+ months from work and still no answers due to negligence under her leadership.  McCarthy is unfit for the Washington State Auditor's position.  Her opponent, Mark Miloscia, is much more qualified: intelligent, transparent, and honest. I called him on a Saturday once and he answered his phone on the 2nd ring and talked to me for 5 minutes.

A citizen with such concern in Pierce County should never have to wait so long to get answers and still have no answers at the time of writing this.  I was unimpressed with her demeanor as she seems part of this establishment.  Her husband, John McCarthy, is a former Superior Court Judge and she is a career politician. Anyhow, that is how I finally got my 5 minutes with Ms. McCarthy, apparently the Pope of Pierce County and nearly impossible for a citizen to ever meet her in real life.  And if you never meet her, do not worry, you are not missing much.

1/7/17 Update - In attempt to repair her reputation, she created this piece of propaganda before leaving. My own opinion may be found in YouTube's comments. And for the record, she never called me back before she left office.

Testimony before Pierce County Council asking for help

I have not given up honoring my mother's life. 

Heather Mickelson before county council 8/9/16

I have been before the Pierce County counsel now 4 times to expose the negligence within the clerk's office, they have done nothing. I will not stop.  The Pierce County executive, Patricia McCarthy is directly responsible and in my opinion, unfit for the Washington State Auditor position. She kept appointed Kevin Stock in office when she took over years ago - no background check, no oath of office, just business as usual.  I tried to once call Mrs. McCarthy and my call was intercepted by her attorney Al Rose who told me she is way too busy for me and will NEVER take my call.  Wow.  Please hand me a box of kleenex.  Where is McCarthy? I've been in the courthouse for 3 months straight and have never seen her.  Is she in the Bahamas with her retired judge husband collecting a $177,000 paycheck and letting the lawyers run the county? Anyhow, aside to some cheating from my dad's attorney, Ken Luce, I have been winning overall:) . I have been assigned a real judge finally (before they gave me a judge who was retired) and this new judge happens to be the presiding judge of the entire county and considered very fair among the public. The Honorable Frank E. Cuthertson will rule on the shredding of a ruling (reinstate star decisis) which the matter is also in tandem with now before the Court of Appeals.
Have I won yet? Yes, because I have made it this far.  I have exposed corruption, educated the public in transparency (such as the ability to film in courts with Glik v. Cuniff), and even sat on the law library's Board of Trustees meeting as one of two citizens to ever attend one of their meetings.  There are many changes that can take place to better the community and provide a fair and just system for us all.  It's going to take a lot more than just myself and my voice.  It is all of our voices, collectively, that can stand up and take back court.  

Ps. Commissioner Mary Dicke was appointed, never elected.  Her husband, Jeffrey Robinson, a  Gig Harbor attorney, appears to be a very wealthy attorney in the county owning 100's of properties possibly on the ability to swoop up property from the same estates Dicke rules on to dismiss (they hide the marriage of Dicke and Robinson in the public eye).
PPS. Another side development, Hill Funeral home in Puyallup picked up my mother on May 1, 2012 with my own father pronouncing her passing, no hospice nurse nor doctor.  Terry Davies, funeral director stated he is a 31st degree Freemason.  Since my dad is a 32nd degree mason, Mr. Davies had no other choice then to take orders from my dad who was higher up in the hierarchy to literally kidnap my mom before she was legally pronounced as passed away. Disgusting. 
Here's some other appearances before the council:
