- never took or passed the required civics test;
- did not reside, as required, in Delaware County while working as a deputy sheriff;
- never passed Taser certification;
- nearly killed two look-alike women, while trying to put both in jail;
- lied in court multiple times under protection of his uncle's employer DA Northrup (now Delaware County Judge Northrup).
- first, one of their dogs was found dead under the circumstances suggesting that Derek Bowie's dog could have done that (especially that Derek Bowie was already accused - that was part of posted deposition transcripts - of killing a neighbor's dog out of anger), and then
- somebody's trained hand threw a Molotov cocktail into Barbara's house, right where her then-pregnant daughter was supposed to be sleeping (it was sheer luck she was staying with friends), and the house burnt down, the local firefighters arrived without water and made sure not that the fire is extinguished, but that the house burns down and another dog dies, and the local authorities would not investigate, would not file necessary reports, and certainly would not charge Derek Bowie as one of the most likely suspects in the case.
Yet, after dismissal of charges against Barbara by the DA's Office fabricated by Derek Bowie as a supposed witness after he nearly mowed down Barbara in his police vehicle for videotaping his misconduct, the same judge who dismissed the charges, then also dismissed Barbara's lawsuit against Derek Bowie claiming that she failed to comply with Bowie's discovery demand - while papers he demanded to "disclose" burned in the house fire which the same Bowie likely caused.
Neither Lambert nor Bowie nor Northrup nor Hubbard were ever disciplined, on the opposite, Northrup and Hubbard advanced their careers after that: Northrup became a Delaware County judge and Hubbard became the Delaware County District Attorney.
There was a burglary and attempted arson in our house, but Northrup refused to investigate or prosecute.
Judge Becker forged a certificate of election from 2002 and filed the forged documents, but Hubbard (without disclosure that he is the judge's former law partner) refused to prosecute.
At the same time, a man was charged by the same Northrup with a D felony and convicted for threatening Judge Becker.
The conclusion: in Delaware County it is permissible to law enforcement and anybody else to attempt violent crimes against critics corrupt judges, prosecutors and police officers.
In the same county, the former law clerk of Judge Dowd, Judge Revoir, just acquitted a white corrections officer of a hate-crime, attempted murder of an African American, despite ample evidence that the officer shot the African American deliberately and with a racist motive.
No jury could ever acquit under such circumstances, but the corrections officer saw the opportunity to use a biased judge who already dismissed the charges despite ample evidence of the crime and was eager to defy the appellate court that reversed his decision, waived jury trial - and got what he wanted: an acquittal.
I myself was a witness in 2015 how an African American who claimed he was beaten up by the police was put into Chenango County jail where nobody attempted to document his visible injuries, and I as his then-attorney was not allowed to bring in photographic equipment to document the injuries either.
So, in Chenango County racist violence by law enforcement is encouraged and enabled by the local government, including the court that practically blessed racially motivated killings of African Americans by law enforcement.
And, when the Oneonta City police beat up and tasered an African American man, Timothy Baron when he was stopped on a pretense because his turn signal was on, and when the police tried to fabricate charges of possession of marijuana against him - no charges for assault against the police were filed against the police officers and nobody was disciplined.
Instead DA Muehl was trying to prosecute the beat-up African American man with a felony, threatened him that if he does not plead guilty, he will be indicted for more - and only when Mr. Baron turned down the plea bargain and we came close to a trial, did DA Muehl confess that he cannot "locate" his main witness and thus that he was trying to obtain a plea of guilty through mere bluffing.
Yet, at the same time when the Otsego County Sheriff Richard Devlin's son Ros Devlin promises to shoot up two local schools, the schools are not notified, the same Otsego County District Attorney John Muehl - who convicted a child, Tony Pacherille, and who tried to lock up the victim of police misconduct, African American Timothy Baron - makes no attempt to charge the son of the County Sheriff Ros Devlin with a terrorist crime when he promised to shoot up two schools, does not even care to notify the potential victims, and does not attempt to arrest the Sheriff's son.
Here are the exact words of the Sheriff's son reported in the local press - also note that the Devlins is not the only clan working in the Sheriff's Department (Otsego County does not have an anti-nepotism policy on file, which allows employments of whole clans).
The entitled son the local nobility violated two rules, and when it was pointed out to him that he actually needs to comply with rules, like everybody else does - he promised to shoot up two schools "as a diversion" and then to shoot himself in front of the supervisor.
So, the violent compulsive terrorist remains free, waiting for a new chance to threaten (or shoot up) local schools - and is not only not charged and not fired, but is suspended "with pay", so, Otsego County taxpayers are forced to pay him for doing nothing, and he is rewarded with $55,000 a year for threatening to shoot up two schools and then sitting at home.
Moreover, Sheriff Richard Devlin had the audacity to participate in his own son's investigation and hamper it, and Ros Devlin had the audacity to apply for a gun permit after it was initially - naturally - revoked. That means that Ros Devlin thinks that what he does is right and proper, and should be allowed to him as the local nobility, and that he will never be held accountable in any way.
Well, Ros Devlin has a point in that - given the record of what is allowed to law enforcement in Delaware, Otsego and Chenango Counties - minorities, women and children can be shot or tasered or mowed over with police vehicles, or burnt with their houses in these three counties - if the perpetrators are members of the local glorious law enforcement.
And this crap WILL continue and WILL get worse - if people continue to tolerate it and do not insist that criminals be held accountable as provided by law.
By the way, I sincerely hope that the victim of racist shooting by corrections officer Wayne Spratley sues the hell out of that officer, and out of Chenango County - since when spouting racial slurs and shooting, Spratley also flashed his badge and thus claimed he was acting in an official capacity.
And - acquittal in a criminal case is not a bar to that lawsuit, since the burden of proof in criminal proceedings is much higher than in a civil rights lawsuit.
If Revoir thought that Wayne Spratley may not be found to be guilty "beyond the reasonable doubt", certainly a federal jury may find Wayne Spratley - and Chenango County - be found liable by preponderance of the evidence.
I also hope that parents of children of the two schools that were not notified sue the hell out of Otsego County, Ros Devlin individually, and Richard Devlin individually - for making such a threat (Ros Devlin), for not notifying them of the threat (the County), for hampering the investigation (Sheriff Devlin) and for letting the son-of-the-local-king-of-the-hill terrorist roam free for a year.
They only understand when they are hit in their own pockets.
It is a disgrace.
