Man faces charges in threats to prosecutor: he threatened to blowup the child protective services building,
Man faces charges in threats to prosecutor
He allegedly tells attorney that her 'life was over' By Raul Hernandez (Contact) Tuesday, September 18, 2007 http://www.venturacountystar.com/new...to-prosecutor/ A Santa Barbara man remains in jail under $1 million bail for allegedly leaving phone voice messages threatening a Ventura County prosecutor. Michael Jon Helman allegedly made a series of threatening phone calls to Deputy District Attorney Karen Wold on Aug. 27 and left three voice messages. Attorney Todd Howeth, with the Public Defender's Office, said in an interview that his client has pleaded not guilty to the charges. He said he recently received his client's case and is reviewing it. Ventura County Superior Court Judge Edward Brodie set the next hearing for Oct. 25. Initially, Helman's bail was set at $100,000. Brodie increased the bail last week to $1 million at prosecutors' request. Wold got a restraining order this month against Helman, ordering him to have no contact with her and not come within 500 yards of her. Helman, 45, told Wold that she had messed up his life eight years ago and "her life was over," according to a declaration by prosecutor Jarrod Wilfert in support of a motion to increase Helman's bail. Prosecutors declined to elaborate on the relationship between Helman and Wold. Six years ago, Helman allegedly threatened Ventura County Superior Court Judge Colleen Toy White and demanded that she withdraw another criminal case against him. Helman left nine voice messages on the work phone of White's secretary, Wilfert's declaration states. "Pull it off calendar, now. If not, she (Judge White) won't be making it to court ... " one message allegedly said. Court records show that Helman has been charged with two felony counts of criminal threats and two felony counts of threatening state officials. The criminal case against Helman is being prosecuted by Douglas Wilson, deputy attorney general. He declined to comment on the details of the case. In Wilfert's declaration, he said Helman was arrested Sept. 22, 1990, for allegedly battering two victims without provocation at a Camarillo bar. In 2001, two people were granted restraining orders against Helman, court records show. In April 2001, Bruria Alon said she got 20 threatening phone calls from Helman. A month later, Angela Mohan, an investigating social worker for child protective services assigned to investigate Helman for allegedly abusing his child, also got a restraining order. "... he threatened to blow up the child protective services building," Wilfert's document states. "There can be little doubt that the defendant is a tremendous danger not only to DDA (Deputy District Attorney) Wold but also the public at large." CURRENTLY CHILD PROTECTIVE SERVICES VIOLATES MORE CIVIL RIGHTS ON A DAILY BASIS THEN ALL OTHER AGENCIES COMBINED INCLUDING THE NSA / CIA WIRETAPPING PROGRAM.... CPS Does not protect children... It is sickening how many children are subject to abuse, neglect and even killed at the hands of Child Protective Services. every parent should read this .pdf from connecticut dcf watch... http://www.connecticutdcfwatch.com/8x11.pdf http://www.connecticutdcfwatch.com Number of Cases per 100,000 children in the US These numbers come from The National Center on Child Abuse and Neglect in Washington. (NCCAN) Recent numbers have increased significantly for CPS *Perpetrators of Maltreatment* Physical Abuse CPS 160, Parents 59 Sexual Abuse CPS 112, Parents 13 Neglect CPS 410, Parents 241 Medical Neglect CPS 14 Parents 12 Fatalities CPS 6.4, Parents 1.5 Imagine that, 6.4 children die at the hands of the very agencies that are supposed to protect them and only 1.5 at the hands of parents per 100,000 children. CPS perpetrates more abuse, neglect, and sexual abuse and kills more children then parents in the United States. If the citizens of this country hold CPS to the same standards that they hold parents too. No judge should ever put another child in the hands of ANY government agency because CPS nationwide is guilty of more harm and death than any human being combined. CPS nationwide is guilty of more human rights violations and deaths of children then the homes from which they were removed. When are the judges going to wake up and see that they are sending children to their death and a life of abuse when children are removed from safe homes based on the mere opinion of a bunch of social workers. CHILD PROTECTIVE SERVICES, HAPPILY DESTROYING THOUSANDS OF INNOCENT FAMILIES YEARLY NATIONWIDE AND COMING TO YOU'RE HOME SOON... BE SURE TO FIND OUT WHERE YOUR CANDIDATES STANDS ON THE ISSUE OF REFORMING OR ABOLISHING CHILD PROTECTIVE SERVICES ("MAKE YOUR CANDIDATES TAKE A STAND ON THIS ISSUE.") THEN REMEMBER TO VOTE ACCORDINGLY IF THEY ARE "FAMILY UNFRIENDLY" IN THE NEXT ELECTION... |
