KingCast welcomes Senator Obama back to New Hampshire: Good Luck, Sir, and please pay attention to Police Abuse in New Hampshire.

By Christopher King

Dear Senator Obama: Congratulations on your victory in Iowa; it is truly a pleasure to see that race becomes less of an issue than facts and substantive issues. It is terrific to see you as a candidate for change, standing in the same room where I stood last year as a proponent of change. In my instance it involved an unlawful, viewpoint-based First Amendment/Right-to-Know speech and complaint policy at the School Board. It was stricken after Alderman Fred Teeboom and I threatened a lawsuit and town Attorney Stephen Bennett prevailed upon the board and the Nashua Telegraph editorial agreed.

As a former Civil Rights lawyer, please review and have your staff monitor the following case as it proceeds through this court and any various Courts of Appeal. New Hampshire that is the scene of a Right-to--know lawsuit on 10 January 2008 after years of benign neglect has led to massive distrust of our government by the youth as well as older, responsible, disaffected citizens who have successfully raised families. This is an area where Franconia law enforcement and a Republican AG (Kelly Ayotte) has misrepresented what complaints were filed with their offices about Corporal Bruce McKay, who died when a scared youth by the name of Liko Kenney shot him after McKay violated OC Spray and vehicular use-of-force policies, ramming Liko with a Tahoe for 40 feet and OC Spraying him without a command or directive. I am filing this Motion for Sanctions regarding the state's ongoing failure to provide other police reports involving McKay's use of OC Spray.

The same law enforcement personnel lost a Right-to-Know case Murray v. State Police, 913 A. 2d 737 (2006) brought by Fred Murray, the father of missing person Maura Murray, in the same courthouse a year ago so there is an ongoing pattern here in the Live Free or Die State, and that is why the Mayor of Nashua, as a 30-year Governor/Executive Council member, awarded KingCast this First Amendment/Right-to-Know Commendation. The Major media in this state are steadfastly ignoring this case.

Here is a summary post.
Here is a short video "Franconia 5/11: Injustice on Stilts," in which the town matriarch notes that Bruce McKay was in fact, "A bully."
