    Not sure if you are still checking these videos but if you are I have a problem. I live on Federal Property, Veterans Property (I live in Fort Snelling Mn and no signs are posted to that effect though) and was taken into Federal Court just recently for "Driving" without a license. The Veterans Affairs Police had no proof that I was in my van other than the "He said He saw" proof. The problem with that was that I was in my home asleep and my van was in my parking lot at the time he said he saw me. It was supposed to be 10 am on the 2nd of January 2018. He didn't give me the ticket till 2 pm in the afternoon. I did not sign the ticket. I did go to court and was caught off guard by the court. I had no time prepare and was unable to get a lawyer. I did not have anything with me to prove my innocence. After the Judge ruled against me she said that if I would just go and get a driver's license she would through the case. When I got home I emailed her chambers (found out I wasn't supposed to do that) I wasn't trying to appeal I just wanted her to know that the Veterans Affairs Police made a mistake. I showed satellite photos of my van in the parking lot of my apartment building and also where he was supposed to have been at the time he supposedly saw me. The photos contradicted his testimony greatly. I was told that my letter and photos would be sent to the US Government for further research and to please not contact the judge again. They wrote me back and told me that they were not going to grant me an appeal on the grounds that it would impeach the officer's testimony and they were not going to allow that to happen. Sorry this is so long but I am desperate here. I want to sue the Veterans Affairs Police department for 2 years of harassment and the federal court for breaching my due process to justice. I was innocent but still found guilty just because the Police said so? The VA POlice also said I considered myself to be a sovereign citizen to the prosecutor and she made it well known in court and in doing so made me look rather stupid in court.

    My kids was wrongfully taken away from me I reached out for help because of where I was staying. I try to go to the homeless shelter because I was running out of funds to pay for my room. So I reached out to a number of people but they call Social Service on me Social Service came to me with a vigorous attitude. They wouldn't listen to anything I had to say even claim that I needed to find somewhere else to go cuz I can't stay in the hotel with my kids. Now it goes much deeper than that long story short they try to get us to take a drug test and which I did and their father did as well. But she claimed that we tampered with the urine because it couldn't read my urine and my urine was warm, I was on my cycle at the time as well, I never mess with the test at all but they claim that they couldn't read it. Now when I got upset because it was like she was singling me out I literally yelled at her why are you treating me this way I asked her? The next thing I know she got on the phone with her attorney that works for social service and they took my kids away. The next day we went to court they give me my youngest to back didn't see no neglect but they kept my oldest daughter, they said that it was a dependency case because I wasn't taking her to see her psychiatrist like I supposed to basically saying I wasn't taking her to the doctor. I've seen several white people who walked out of the courtroom still on drugs, prostituting even when their kids are around and they give them all kind of resources to help them get their child back. When it came to me and my husband we have to find your own information the social worker lied on us it is even stated in the transcript so I'm going to go and get the new station because this is really wrong of what they're doing to my family
