Everyone Blog About Howard County State’s Attorney Day

This is the latest post in what I half-jokingly call The Kimberlin Saga^®.  If you are new to the story, that’s okay! Not everyone reads my blog.  The short version is that Kimberlin has been harassing me for over a year, his worst conduct being when he attempted to frame me for a crime.  I recognize that this might sound like an incredible claim, but I provide video and documentary evidence of that fact; in other words, you don’t have to believe my word.  You only have to believe your eyes.  So, if you are new to the story, go to this page and you’ll be able to catch up on what has been happening.

It looks like another busy day in the blogosphere for me.  But I wanted to share that I called Wayne Kirwin at the State’s Attorney’s office and got only a voice mail.  As is my long practice, I left a voice mail message asking for a comment about it, and leaving my phone number.  And I followed it up with this email:

Subject: In follow up of my voice mail

Mr. Kirwin,

My name is Aaron Walker.  A few weeks ago, I came into your office to discuss charges of harassment and electronic harassment by a Mr. Schmalfeldt.  I met with Assistant State’s Attorney Jim Brewer.  Also present was my wife and a victim’s advocate named Erica.  I believe she is Erica Carpio.

Mr. Brewer came in with an extremely hostile attitude toward the claim and I attempted to explain to him that there was a larger context to this situation.  I tried to explain that this was part of a pattern of retaliatory conduct directed at myself and my wife for over a year led by convicted terrorist Brett Kimberlin after I had reported him for criminal conduct.  See, e.g., Kimberlin v. White, 7 F.3d 527, 528-529 (7^th Cir. 1993) .  I explained to Mr. Brewer that Mr. Kimberlin had escalated his conduct on the same day I filed those charges to actually stalking my wife in the parking lot of your district court and that this had left my wife so shaken she had cried for over an hour afterward and inquired into whether he would prosecute that claim.

Mr. Brewer had the nerve to say he wouldn’t and told me that, “if you are so concerned for your safety, don’t come to Maryland.”

I consider that to be a statement of surrender to the forces of evil.  It is saying that Maryland is so incapable of controlling its criminals that rather than prosecute the criminals, visitors should avoid the state entirely.  And by extension, it suggests that good people already living there should probably leave.

Maryland has a moral duty to protect the safety of both its residents and its visitors.  I ask you today whether the Howard County State’s Attorney has decided to shirk its duty in that regard.  Or if the Howard County State’s Attorney has any statement in response to this issue.

I have left a similar, albeit shorter, voice mail message to the same effect.  You can reach me at [redacted] or at this email address.

Aaron

We’ll see if he gets back with me.  I suspect he might be inundated with calls.

If you would like to participate in this protest, do the same thing.  Call them, see if you can get any response and report it.  Any reply, including, no reply is worth reporting.  See more tips for participation, here.

My wife and I have lost our jobs due to the harassment of convicted terrorist Brett Kimberlin, including an attempt to get us killed and to frame me for a crime carrying a sentence of up to ten years.  I know that claim sounds fantastic, but if you read starting here, you will see absolute proof of these claims using documentary and video evidence.  If you would like to help in the fight to hold Mr. Kimberlin accountable, please hit the Blogger’s Defense Team button on the right.  And thank you.

Disclaimer:

I have accused some people, particularly Brett Kimberlin, of reprehensible conduct.  In some cases, the conduct is even criminal.  In all cases, the only justice I want is through the appropriate legal process—such as the criminal justice system.  I do not want to see vigilante violence against any person or any threat of such violence.  This kind of conduct is not only morally wrong, but it is counter-productive.

In the particular case of Brett Kimberlin, I do not want you to even contact him.  Do not call him.  Do not write him a letter.  Do not write him an email.  Do not text-message him.  Do not engage in any kind of directed communication.  I say this in part because under Maryland law, that can quickly become harassment and I don’t want that to happen to him.

And for that matter, don’t go on his property.  Don’t sneak around and try to photograph him.  Frankly try not to even be within his field of vision.  Your behavior could quickly cross the line into harassment in that way too (not to mention trespass and other concerns).

And do not contact his organizations, either.  And most of all, leave his family alone.

The only exception to all that is that if you are reporting on this, there is of course nothing wrong with contacting him for things like his official response to any stories you might report.  And even then if he tells you to stop contacting him, obey that request.  That this is a key element in making out a harassment claim under Maryland law—that a person asks you to stop and you refuse.

And let me say something else.  In my heart of hearts, I don’t believe that any person supporting me has done any of the above.  But if any of you have, stop it, and if you haven’t don’t start.
