UPDATE For Immediate Release: Press Release #3 26/06/2013, Barbara Bratton
Out On Bail, Defrauded Homeowner Jailed As Domestic Terrorist Friday, June 28, 2013: San Bernardino, CA. Homeowners’ rights advocate Barbara Bratton was released on bail early this morning after spending two weeks detained as a felon on charges of forgery, burglary and offering false documents for allegedly filing a corrective deed at the San Bernardino County Recorder’s office.
Homeowners sometimes use corrective deeds as a preliminary step towards court recognition of systemic land title fraud on their home. At a Wednesday hearing in San Bernardino Superior Court, Ms. Bratton’s attorneys argued that she showed no criminal intent, had no criminal record and posed no flight risk. Bail was reduced from $250,000 to $150,000. Terms require Ms. Bratton and her associates to stay away from her family home of 40 years as well as from the couple who wrongfully obtained the property from her.
A preliminary hearing is set for August.
Since 2008, Barbara Bratton, a native of the City of Ontario, CA. and life-long member of Mt. Zion Baptist Church in that city, has been engaged in a determined legal battle to win back her home. In an apparent attempt to intimidate her, the office of San Bernardino County District Attorney Michael Ramos accused Ms. Bratton of being a domestic terrorist associated with the “sovereign citizens” – a charge wholly without merit. She has never identified herself as a sovereign citizen, nor does she support their views.
At least six officers were assigned to assist the District Attorney’s office with the case. FBI agents were also present in court. Ms. Bratton’s arrest comes at a time of growing public dissatisfaction with domestic surveillance and other gross violations of civil and human rights since passage of the Patriot Act after 9/11.
Barbara Bratton believes in and is in full compliance with the U.S. Constitution, which is why she is fighting a strictly legal battle to win back her home. These trumped up charges appear to be a desperate attempt by county and city officials to divert public attention from the real crimes: the powerful home mortgage industry [[1] ] that has generated mountains of fraudulent documents that continue to pollute property records in San Bernardino County - a county with some of the highest foreclosure rates in the country. Until land title fraud is weeded out from public property records, judges will continue to sanction illegal foreclosures and bankers and home loan servicers who nearly brought down the U.S. economy will go unpunished.

... But that plan was unexpectedly interrupted on May 29th, when Will and
five other project participants were arrested by Kenyan police and
thrown in jail. Besides Will, who is married to a Kenyan aid worker and
is a new father, the others include local community business owners who
are parents and grandparents, a youth activist, a volunteer mother, and
the caretaker of seven orphan children.
The police at first accused the group of plotting a terrorist
overthrow of the government, claiming that Bangla-Pesa was linked to the
MRC, a terrorist secessionist group. When that link was easily
disproven, the Central Bank of Kenya was called in and charges of
forgery were formally placed. Will and his fellow suspects have been
released for now on a bail of EUR 5,000 and await trial on July 17th. If
convicted, they face seven years in a Kenyan prison.
