    Hey Jayelles. Good to see you my friend.

    You could very well be right about the depo.

    I wonder if the reason Jameson has never posted Smit's depo has something to do with the fact that maybe it's all over the place and easily discredited. Perhaps that's why she couldn't sell it to the Tabs.

    Wonder who did the opening prayer at the depo?
    :pray:

    Probably the court reporter: "Dear God, please help me get through this without throwing up and losing my mind...." :headache:

    Personally, I don't believe jams has it. If she did, she'd have the whole forum quoting Smit's spin so much, we'd all know it by heart now.

    Once she found out she couldn't sell it, I mean....

    See, if it's in the public domain, or not sealed, as they claim, then the only thing I can think of is it has either not been transcribed or Wood won't give it out for free.

    When I got the part of the Miller trial transcript that contained Fernie's account of when he arrived at the Ramsey's home that morning, I talked directly to the court reporter. The Colorado clerk of court I called about that case--whatever district that was, I can't remember now--gave me the court reporter's number. That's why it's so confusing that the U.S. Dictrict Court's clerks seem to think Smit's depo is still under protective order, as well as all those we have viewed online for so long. They tried to patiently tell me to mind my own business in this, and I tried to patiently tell them that the Rams had made it everyone's business by having Wood and jams hand out the parts they wanted to shill to the world. Oh, well.

    My guess is that we need to contact the court reporter who took Smit's depo. If he/she has already transcribed the depo, it will cost so much/page. Since it's not a criminal case, the court reporter might say he/she can't share it unless the party who paid for it agrees. That's what is confusing to me. If Wood/the Rams paid for the depo, in a civil case, it's in their powers. If Wood doesn't want it out here, I don't see how we can get it.

    So now I think it's a challenge to find out IF we can get it. If we can't, then we've been misinformed. If we can...well...I think it would be worth having access to, to see just what Smit said under WOOD ALONE'S leading questions and direction that so swayed the judge. Of course, I don't expect anything new, as we've heard Smit's disinformation enough times before. But...we can't really know without seeing it, can we?

    Tricia, the case number is: 1:00-CV-1187-JEC

    Robert Christian Wolf v John Bennet Ramsey and Patricia Paugh Ramsey


    date of Carnes' decision: March 31, 2003

    This case was filed in U.S. District Court in Georgia, Northern District, I think.

    The Clerk's Office number is 404 215-1600.


    I think it would be probably be best to next contact the court recorder who took the deposition for Wood, unless you want to call Lin Wood's office. hahahahaha :doh:

    Here is the name of the court reporter who took the Beckner depo, and they said that was taken during the same trip, so maybe the same court reporter took Smit's.

    8 Today is November 26th, 2001. We are

    9 located at 1777 Broadway, Boulder, Colorado. The

    10 court reporter is Kelly Mackereth from Mackereth

    11 Lombritto & Associates.
    I'm the videographer. My

    12 name is Monika Cary, of Wren Video Services.

    Oh, yeah, you need Smit's entire name, as that's how it's filed for the court: Andrew Louis Smit.

    One more thing: in Georgia, the first clerk of court I spoke with said copies cost 50 cents/page. If that's the going rate in Colorado, that would be 4000 pages of transcript for it to cost $2000.

    That's 8 packages of paper with 500 pages in each pack. Maybe 12 or more lbs to ship?

    Ok, I'm trying to get some documents from this site, but it's causing my computer to crash, so I may or may not get some detailed stuff.

    As for the docket I just posted, it's long and tedious, so I haven't read it all yet, just tried to highlight a few things that jumped out at me about sealed depositions. Feel free to jump in and figure it out...and good luck.

    Oh, one thing: did Chris Wolf have to pay all the Ramseys' costs for this trial?

    NO WAY??!! I didn't hear about this!! :steamed:

    now THIS one I heard about!

    Thanks for ALL the updates of 'old' case stuff - quite an interesting read to say the least!

    Also I noticed that you mentioned in your phone conversation with the County Clerk:

    now... excuse me, but didn't you JUST post part of Mark Beckner's depo??? :confused:

    LOL! thinking the same thing, Tez!! Good to 'see' you posting! :cool2:

    Yeah, me, neither, until I was reading Beckner's depo posted at ACR's for the court reporter info and found that little tidbit about Darnay not showing up for Beckner's depo. That's why I mentioned it. I see a pattern with Darnay. He managed to NOT SHOW UP for quite a few key events in this case, as well as others he started and in which he ultimately screwed his clients to the wall.

    That's why I was also asking if Chris Wolf had to pay the Ramsey costs in the suit: I noticed in the docket I posted that the judge ruled Wolf had to do that. I can't imagine how much that cost him. I hope somehow he appealed. I noticed, as my computer was crashing for the 5th time while I was trying to download some of the documents we can get from the case on the Pacer website, that I missed a few motions listed on the docket after Carnes wrote her decision and found for the defendants. So now that I've updated my Adobe program, maybe I can get more info to answer some of these questions, anyhow. But I'll have to do it over the next few days, as I have company now.


    Yeah, well, that's what we're trying to figure out. The U.S. North District Court clerks say the depos were sealed under protective order. That's true, which the docket shows. But then both sides had a chance later to argue for or against keeping the case/depos/exhibits/whatever under protective order, with the depositions being sealed for good or unsealed, as far as I can tell without a careful reading--which I haven't had time to do. Some of the exhibits were also put under seal and continue to be sealed. Some of the depositions were as well, but apparently not all. But some seem to have had the seal lifted, at least partially, like Steve Thomas'. I also noticed that The City of Boulder filed some kind of motions in this case, I believe having to do with keeping some of the depositions under seal, like Beckner's and Hunter's and Smit's. But then they withdrew their motion or whatever, if I got that part right, later. So...I have no idea.

    Like I said, I haven't had time to carefully read it all, and I'm trying to get some of the online documents for us, but my computer wouldn't load them and kept crashing. Seems I had to update my Adobe program, so that took a long time with dial-up. I haven't had a chance to try again, but if I still can't, maybe I can get Moab to do it for me. sigh I'm such a computer dummy.

    But obviously, we do have some of the orginally sealed depositions online, so...I'll keep trying and on Monday, maybe we can make some more calls and see what we can find out.

    Hey KK,

    Let's split the work ok?

    Email me at tgrif@xmission.com I have already tried to contact a couple of people. I am sure between the two of us we can figure this out.

    Of course, we are not near as smart as Cranky but we can hope can't we?

    Ok my son T-Rex and I are sleeping out on the porch of the cabin. We have a beautiful river running right in front of us....anyway..T-Rex wants me to add this :rs:

    LOL..It is funny

    OK, a correction here: I wrote several times about Darnay not showing up for Beckner's depo. I wrote about it even tonight. Then I went over to check out the swamp, on the off chance that someone there might actually give a rip about the murder victim in this debacle and post information beneficial to all, as opposed to just some self-promoting, name-dropping efforts at blowing her own horn. Of course, that didn't happen...duh.

    But seems I misspoke in ONE POST and put Smit's name in for Beckner's, regarding Darnay not showing up at BECKNER'S DEPO. Anyone keeping up with this exercise in futility could figure out I simply made an error by transposing the names.

    Not gutter candy, of course. She had to post an entire post on how I WAS LYING! I LIE! I'M SUCH A LYING STUPID TRUTH MURDERING GUTTER HO! DARNAY DID SHOW UP FOR SMIT'S DEPO! FOR 12 HOURS! BY TELEPHONE CONFERENCE CALL!

    To clarify, here is my offending post:

    Now, any rational person following two threads on two forums for page after page of discussion could see I simply misspoke, especially a person who was INITIATING parts of the discussion with a whole thread, IN WHICH DARNAY NOT SHOWING UP FOR BECKNER'S DEPO WAS A KEY POST OF HERS RESPONDING TO MINE, said topic of which gutter candy was complaining herself orginally about what I had already said about Darnay NOT being at BECKNER'S DEPO.

    Ridiculous, isn't it?

    But thanks for the info anyway, gutter candy. So Darnay was there at Smit's depo...BY PHONE. hahaha Yeah, the MOST IMPORTANT WITNESS DEPOSED FOR THE RAMSEYS...and Darnay makes a phone call. He must have been intimidating beyond belief! His skills of questioning witnesses must be super-human! He has no need to even be there, to study the body language of the witness, to do his best job possible!

    HE JUST PHONES IT IN!

    One more thing....

    I noticed this, but I was discussing other things, so didn't mention it, but before the swampsters all end up in the nervous ward....

    Jayelles, I think you read the intent of the Ramseys as stated in the motion about sealing some of the depositions backward: they didn't want the depositions sealed, by and large, with a few exceptions of material regarding suspects/case file info not yet publicly known--or something like that.

    Of course, since they never released Smit's, but they did release many others, and since we have no way of knowing what info in depositions they didn't release and why, we can hardly pat them on the back for yet another well-executed propaganda campaign by Lin Wood.

    From Camera Staff Writer Christine Reid (June, 10, 2003) (Journey Beyond Reason, p. 210/211)

    "In addition, Lou Smit, a retired Colorado Springs detective who worked on the case for former District Attorney Alex Hunter, has volunteered a day and a half of his time a week since Keenan's office took over."

    So Smit came back after Keenan took over. Oh, how I'd like to know what Tom Bennett thought of Lou's 'bullsmit' (poster Little coined that word which fits his intruder theory to a T, lol).

    Is Smit still working on the case now? (I hope not!!).

    Well, yeah, Smit got himself BACK inside the DA's Office, in spite of obsconding with case files LAST TIME and handing Hunter his a$$ on a platter. Since Smit was then able to see all the NEW CASE DEVELOPMENTS OF EVIDENCE, compliments of Keenan, stuff he hadn't seen since he last ran off with the files, I guess it's safe to assume Team Ramsey has had their hands all over it as well, haven't they, now that Smit is OFF the case YET AGAIN.

    My guess is that Detective Bennett handed him his hat at some point with all the INTRUDER THIS and INTRUDER THAT BSmit.

    So...once again, the only suspects EVER linked to the evidence in this murder know everything LE knows about it. What a way to run a murder investigation.

    But I have minor news, dear fellow guttah lowlifes.

    Going through all the documents and files that Pacer would give me access to last night, straight from the US District Court of Northern Georgia, I managed to find out a few things about the Wolf suit that are kinda' interesting, in a trivia sort of way. Off the top of my head, without posting the documents in total (they are in picture format, so I just printed out most of those I could view, but if you want to see them for yourself, you can register with the Pacer site and view/copy them for 8 cents/page), here are a few facts I found:

    1. None of the depositions are available online at Pacer; "You do not have access to this file" is the response I got on stuff that is still sealed, like some court orders, exhibits and depositions--at least, on the Pacer site, anyhow. So we're not getting Smit's depo there, at any rate.

    2. The DA/the City of Boulder fought to have the 911 call sealed under the court's protective order, won temporarily, with Wood arguing for not sealing it...and then the BDA turned around and withdrew the the motion. This was filed March 28, 2003, 3 days before Judge Carnes' decision for the defendants came down. Here's how it reads:

    Here's the intesresting part: "At the request of the District Attorney for the Twentieth Judicial District of Boulder, Colorado, the City hereby withdraws its Motion and also withdraws its designation of the audio recording, as well as its designation of the review of the audio recording by the Ramseys' counsel, as confidential."

    Now I'm wondering: when the suit started, was Keenan DA or was Hunter still DA? The protective order was originally issued May 20, 2001. But Keenan saw fit to finally release the 911 tape...at the Ramseys' request, as we can see. Hunter fought long and hard to keep that tape out of the Ramseys' hands, even though he lost when a judge gave it to Burke, as per the Grand Jury witness laws at the time of the Grand Jury. Still, the call was under protection of the DA's Office from public release...up until this little play by Keenan.

    So...wonder who contributed to Keenan's campaign for DA? We saw some of that list long ago...but now I am wondering.... Probably nothing to this wondering....

    3. Another thing that I found is that the judge ordered the Ramseys' "recover its costs" for the suit. That came to the grand sum of "$38, 141.49." And that did not include any attorneys' fees, by the way, which could easily be tens of thousands for all parties in a case like this. So anyone who thinks they're going to run out and SUESUESUE for fun, now you can see that's not how it works. It's expensive and most attornies won't even let you in the door without a very large retainer--for this reason.

    So here is how Wood broke down the costs to be recovered:

    So...somebody got paid to serve summons and subpoena to witnesses;

    The largest fees (almost $30 thou) were for depositions, for the court reporter AND VIDEOGRAPHER, which was quite expensive;

    Steve Thomas got a $90.00 witness fee...which seems to be purely for insult, as far as I can tell;

    About $4,000 was for copying documents, etc.;

    And the "Other" was basically hotel rooms and airfare.

    Which leads me to the next item of interest.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    4. Wood didn't actually ask for any costs like hotel and airfare to Boulder, say, for him or his attornies--except ONCE. He did ask for hotel and airfare costs which resulted from the trip to depose Stratbucker in Nebraska, due to DARNAY FIRING STRATBUCKER AN HOUR INTO STRATBUCKER'S DEPOSITION.

    Even more funny--DARNAY WAS ONLY AT THE DEPOSITION BY PHONE--AGAIN. How do you fire your expert on a conference phone call? Just wondering....

    Well, since I know "somebody" will be writhing on the floor over this at that "other forum" and "you all know where that is," here's what Wood said in his affadavit:

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    So...what's next...let me think, let me think....

    Oh, yeah...SOMEONE...and you all KNOW who I mean...said the reason Darnay didn't even show up by phone for Beckner's deposition...was because there was "some confusion" about the date and Darnay had to be in court.

    Well, I don't know but that's true...however...as Lin Wood lists in his "costs" filings under "'IN-HOUSE' COPYING AND PRINTING COSTS"...the "Notice of Deposition of Mark R. Beckner" and one for Carrie Weinheimer, as well, were both copied/printed on 11/02/01. Then there are documents on file which are signed by Wood on Nov. 2, 2001, which state that all parties were notified that Beckner and Weinheimer were going to be deposed on Nov. 26, 2001, Beckner at 9 am and Weinheimer at 2 pm. Both Darnay, address listed for NY, and his co-counsel, Evan Altman, address listed for GA, are named as notified on all the notice documents.

    Just saying...seems the plaintiff's case was a mess, pretty much, all along.

    Think about it. You're a lawyer, you're up against a well-known pit bull like Wood...and you don't even bother to show up IN PERSON to depose your own key witness? Then you don't bother to show up IN PERSON to depose the DEFENDANTS' key witnesses? Some you're not even there BY PHONE?

    Hey, bellyache all the excuses you want, BUT WOOD SHOWED UP, DIDN'T HE? AND...he won. Thing is, now I can easily see why.

    Let's see...one more thing, but I'm not sure how to handle it.

    Seems the last document on file came from...our very own...GUTTER CANDY!

    Yep, you heard it right here, lazies and bents! Gutter Candy wrote to the venerable Judge Carnes her very self! And why...you ask...?

    Wait for it....

    To request that Fleet White's depo be unsealed!

    I am not making this up. I'll post the letter entirely later, gotta' run now. I have the document, but hesitate to have it posted because it's the acrobat version/picture and it has all gutter candy's personal info on it. I'm not that into posting personal info on forums, even if it is readily available. Too much abuse of that kind of thing has gone on in the past.

    But here's the pip: if gutter candy had to ask Carnes to unseal White's depo...guess that means gutter candy also doesn't have Smit's depo. So I was wrong about that, it would seem. Guess Darnay didn't hand case info over to gutter candy willy nilly. Now I'm wondering, how much does she just pretend to know, vs how much does she know? Maybe all those "documents" she claims to have came right off the Pacer site, which I have used for years and revealed as a source long ago on WS, after which gutter candy started showing up with her "documents" from there, I noticed.

    I mean, I would never claim I used the site 13 months before anyone else...doncha know.... But she never even THANKED me...no manners, I guess. :thumbsup:

    hahaha How stupid this all is. I must be bored out of my mind to even bother with this stuff anymore. The blind leading the blind. :sucks:

    But I can now swear to this under oath: I DIDN'T STEAL ANY OF THESE DOCUMENTS! I PAID FOR THEM! SO NOW...

    THEY'RE MINEMINEMINE!
    I OWN THEM!
    GET YOUR FILTHY TRUTH MURDERING PAWS OFF THEM!
    BECAUSE LE IGNORES YOU LYING THIEVING LIARS!!!!!!!!!!!!

    AChhKKKCh...Looo...KKKAAAHHHCCKKKK...wuwuwuwuooaaagh....

    brain...shutting...down.... :fight:
