In a perplexing email, a U. S. Federal Probation Officer, Mr. Cordell Wilson, requests the surrender of a fugitive living in Zermatt, Switzerland.
I am the fugitive.
How does the legal system fail to provide justice? In part due to people like Officer Cordell Wilson.
Escaping Wilson’s authority was a good and necessary act, among my best decisions. The reasons are plentiful, justified, and understandable.
Wilson intentionally concealed fraudulent psychological reports that were used by Judge D. Hansher to justify preventing a father from contacting his son … from age 5 until 18. The father had protected the child from severe abuse. But Milwaukee lawyers saw the imperatives directed elsewhere.
The safety of Switzerland allows me to expose astonishing lawyer corruption in Milwaukee, and Wilson’s malicious, unlawful role in it – all concealed back home.
Reporting this story in Milwaukee led to – heavy fines (the highest amount ever awarded against an author in Wisconsin) for information disclosed in the book Beyond Outrage – to retaliation – to the falsification of psychological reports – and on to vile, vengeful acts by Officer Wilson.3

What caused Wilson to send his demand to a foreign jurisdiction? Projection, perhaps. Wilson may have been motivated to demand my surrender to avoid surrending to his own guilt, for Wilson indulged in gross violations of duty, law, and simple humanity.
Officer Wilson is himself a fugitive … from moral conduct. He refused to expose fraudulent psychological reports submitted to a court (a felony), thus protecting corrupt Milwaukee lawyers, perpetuating a false conviction, and returning a child to an abuser.
Is a probation officer a cop? If so, Wilson’s a dirty cop.
Living in Switzerland allows me to exercise First Amendment rights denied me by a Milwaukee judge, who protected his lawyer tribe from the truth and accountability.
Living in Switzerland has allowed me to expose a Milwaukee stage-show trial, the participants in the injustice, and the depraved conduct that convinced me to leave.
Members of a corrupt Milwaukee lawyer tribe, named in this blog, put themselves above the truth, confident they could control the narrative.
Through multiple legal challenges, nothing happened to correct gross violations of due process and illegal conduct. Milwaukee lawyers don’t wash their own laundry.
It is a good that, in this case, those lawyers failed with humiliating consequences, as I dragged my First Amendment rights along with me to accuse them, far away from a corrupt Milwaukee tribe and Mr. Wilson.

Federal Officer Cordell Wilson …
– concealed falsified mental heath reports and their fraudulent submission to a court;
– prevented the exposure of legal system corruption that led to a false conviction.
One duty of a federal probation officer is: Help the federal courts ensure the fair administration of justice.
Wilson prevented the disclosure of fraudulent documentation submitted to a court. That’s a felony. Wilson aided and abetted; that’s also a felony.
The concealment of fraudulent documents prevented overturning a false conviction, perpetuating a fateful injustice.
I became an international fugitive because Wilson and Milwaukee lawyers embodied illegality, corruption and moral bankruptcy to a degree that cried out for exposure.
Background
In fact I did surrender – as Officer Wilson advised above. I surrendered to Swiss law enforcement authorities in Interlaken – on the first day of my arrival in Switzerland, years ago.
I explained that I left Milwaukee to escape lawyer corruption and injustice. The reaction was more amusement than concern. No one is surprised by American lawyer corruption here. The official response was, “We have no interest in the matter; lead you life.”
That is what I did.
I became an instructor in the Chemistry Department of the University of Basel. This unexpected turn of events – once it became known – annoyed and humiliated corrupt lawyers in Milwaukee to no end. My job didn’t fit their narrative. They started a campaign to undermine my credibility and to silence me, even going so far as invoking Interpol, the international policing agency, providing them with false information.
They concocted a story that I was mentally ill and dangerous to the public.
Interpol investigated corrupt Milwaukee lawyer harassment. They found the information provided through the U.S. Government to be meritless. They cleared my name. (see their letter on the blog.)
It was lawyer misconduct carried out to an astonishing extent in a Milwaukee courtroom that led to my false conviction – a conviction for the felony crime of “interference with child custody.”
The trial featured gross violations of due process and misconduct by the defence lawyer and prosecutor. It was Officer Cordell Wilson who later played the pivotal role in the decision to leave for Switzerland.
This author sought for months to expose the physical abuse of my son in Milwaukee. I removed him from a threatening, dangerous and ill mother, as Wisconsin law permitted and required. I hoped finally to draw attention to the harm coming to the child. My concerns, based on medical evidence and supported by numerous recorded legal complaints, were ignored by lawyers, by a guardian ad litem, a judge, and a politician.
The evidence was concealed at trial.
The motivation for the lawyer misconduct included my lawyer’s desire to protect colleagues from charges of negligence and from accountability. Lawyer Kohler attempted to vigorously and unethically coerce a plea bargain for over 18 months. That bargain would have concealed evidence of child abuse and negligence/incompetence on the part of people who should have acted to protect the child.
I refused to participate in the concealment; the plea bargain failed. That put me in the judge’s firing line, the prosecutor’s and my own lawyer’s.
Lawyer, judge and prosecutor all agreed that the facts of the case could not become public, so the trial had to be – and was – an orchestrated stage-show.
One component of the false conviction was an accusation of mental illness, which was raised abruptly and exclusively post-conviction. The false accusation was promoted to the pubic by Judge David Hansher and by Lawyer Robert Elliott, hired by Lawyer Kohler to help conceal his perfidy at the trial.
There had been no mental health evaluation prior to the trial, nor had anyone suggested the need for such … until after the mis-administered trial.
The false accusation of mental illness by the judge accomplished two things:
1) rendered discountable my deep and continuing concern for my son’s health and safety, as my accusations became the figment of an ill mind;
2) exploited the fear and mistrust that accompanies a label of mental illness when the accusation comes from a reputable source like a judge.
An account of corruption put forth by someone labelled mental ill is met with great skepticism. In this case it undermined my credibility and deflected scrutiny that should have focused on the sham trial.
Regardless of the judge’s certainty about a father’s mental illness – as he proclaimed at sentencing – three court-appointed psychologists disagreed.
Three psychological reports stated there were no indications that the father suffered from any form of mental illness. There was therefore no need for therapy or medication, as had been slyly and maliciously suggested by the judge.
One report explicitly stated that the father was likely truthful in his statements on the abuse of the child, statements that the prosecutor had disparaged with cruel mockery to the jury, claiming they were the product of a sick mind because, “Where is the evidence?”
And yet … at the same time that prosecutor Fred Matestic was lying to the jury, he knew that he and the defence lawyer had misled jurors by concealing months of evidence, officially recorded and available.
Prosecutor Matestic falsely informed jurors that extensive legal efforts by the father to protect the child – and complaints to lawyers, a judge, doctors and police – did not exist.
Evidence in his files, yet it did not exist!
The fraudulently claimed absence of evidence in the face of the father’s accusations served not only to fatally mislead the jury, it paved the way for the accusation of mental illness. It made for a package neatly wrapped in deceit that must have involved considerable forethought and planning.
On to Federal Probation Officer Cordell Wilson
In reply to the above email, I sent the following information to Federal Probation Officer Cordell Wilson:
Here is a list of the faults you should admit to, pertaining to illegal/unethical conduct. Your faults made it necessary to depart from your authority:
1) A psychologist, appointed by you, discovered earlier, falsified, incriminating mental health reports. You concealed the information.
Your demand for a third psychological evaluation arose despite two earlier and authentic reports confirming there was no sign of mental illness and no requirement for therapy. One evaluation immediately followed the trial, after the accusation of mental illness by the judge. You knew it refuted the judges conclusions entirely.
Your third psychologist’s report concluded that, based on the two previous reports and on her interview, there was no need for a continued evaluation. There was no indication of mental illness. But then she noted something shocking and ominous:
The official psychological reports that your psychologist obtained stated the opposite of the reports submitted to the court. The submitted reports were fraudulently summarised. They stated – pointedly and misleadingly – that I was psychotic and required medication.
When I discovered this I immediately brought it to your attention. I requested that you contact the judge and relevant authorities. You refused.
You refused to lend validity to the clean report issued by your own appointed psychologist. It did not match the false narrative that had to be maintained to conceal corruption.
2) One of the fraudulent reports stated that I had “refused to take medication.” The psychologist who wrote the original report snickered when he heard this:
“I don’t have the power to prescribe medication. It’s obvious that the report is a fraud,” he affirmed.
The false report, however, motivated you to teach a lesson. No one under your handling was going to refuse anything. As punishment for the falsely claimed refusal of medication, you continued to refuse to allow me to have contact with my son. I could not send him a birthday card or similar, under threat of prison … by you.
You argued that the judge ordered “no contact with your son from age 5 to age 18.” But the disclosure of fraudulent mental health reports should have led to an immediately examination of the judge’s vindictive order.
As you know, any probation officer can approach a judge to allow contact with family members. Officers are encouraged to help maintain family ties. You did not put in such a request; you refused to submit it when I asked.
This, Mr. Wilson, was mean-spirited, vengeful, cruel, even sadistic. It is not in the job description of a probation officer to separate children from parents. It is not honourable.
3) I asked you to allow me to see my son’s health records.
The child’s mother had been forcing his head under water for what she considered punishable offences, such as asking to see me. But you again refused and questioned, “Why would you want to do that?”
Why would I want to do that? Cordell Wilson, ask yourself what is wrong with you, deep inside, to ask such a question. You have children of your own, yet you do not understand a parent’s love of a child?
Was it stupidity? No, I don’t think that. You wanted to demonstrate the power that you had, to show me that I would mind your instructions, or else.
You certainly had the power. Your abuse of that power was my motivation to leave for Switzerland. I decided to take your “or else” option … to get the hell away from you and to tell this story.
If your personal psychology were to be evaluated, it would resonante with an image more commonly understood:
You are the white prison guard who sees the black, female inmate in her cell. She is weak; she is vulnerable, she is Black; you are her master now. No one will believe her if she reports you. You salivate emotionally. Your demons are unleashed and find exercise. You rape her. But then you say it never happened, and believing you is simply easier than believing her.
That is how your demons emerged when you sensed my vulnerability, and my deep desire to ensure my child’s safety. You, like the lawyers, were sure that no one would believe a mentally ill criminal over a probation officer. Maintaining the perception of mental illness helped keep me under control.
There was another probation officer – named Kim. You know him. He supervised me before you and we got along very well. He was a good man. He assured me, “I would never keep a father from contacting a son.” He permitted writing my son letters and sending a gift.
You brought this situation on yourself because of a lack of humanity, of simple kindness and understanding, a lack of character, personal and professional.
Surrendering to you wouldn’t be honourable, Mr. Wilson, it would be damned stupid. You are embedded in a corrupt lawyer tribe and must hold to the false narrative.
You were not capable of going beyond the character that you have assigned to yourself. Exposing the corruption would have been too monumental a step. You did the easy, safe thing. You betrayed your professional oath, duty, and yourself.
I will not rescue you from yourself by surrendering.
Given the extent of the cover up in this case, were I to return to the USA as you suggest – even if you were inclined to list your faults – this story could not continue to be told. People with more influence than you are not going to let themselves be dragged into the mud because of someone at your pay grade.
This story has to be told outside of the control of the Milwaukee lawyer tribe. Back home, it’s CYOA and lunging for a seat if the music stops. So the music musn’t stop.
According to former Milwaukee County Corrections psychologist, Dr. Kenneth Diamond, the type of chicanery shockingly described here – with the submission of fraudulent psychological reports – is not surprising. But when I asked him to go public, he stated, “I don’t want to tangle with the lawyers.”
He worried about living under their thumb in retirement; I don’t have that problem.
You and the corrupt lawyers in Milwaukee are the reason why the legal system fails: evidence concealed; feckless and enabling colleagues; false narratives forced down the public’s throat.
You contribute to the cynicism and hopelessness of people far less fortunate than I, people who have also been railroaded by corrupt lawyers.
Aside from my personal need, this story has to be told for them, too,
