MY TESTIMONY

Heb 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Psa 27:1 The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?


I was raised in Boston, Massachusetts by good, hard-working parents.  I received a better than average education in the Catholic School System into my high school years (which was not free).  I really came to understand just how valuable my education was when I spent my Senior year and graduated from a public school.  I was also born and raised a Catholic.

At 17 I became a United States Marine and for all intents and purposes I was out on my own for the first time in my life.  During my enlistment I visited over 30 destinations (several more than once) outside the United States mostly in the Far East.  Places like Australia (Sydney), Thailand (Pattaya Beach, Bangkok), Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan (Sasebo, Tokyo, Okinawa), Aleutian Islands of Alaska (Shemya), Hawaii, Saipan, Guam, Korea (Pusan, Pohang, Seoul), Iwo Jima, Philippines (Subic Bay, Olongapo City, Manila), and more; most before reaching the age of 21… While serving as a United States Marine I obtained 4 Military Occupation Specialties (M.O.S); 0311, 0331, 0341, 2571 and had also obtained SECRET clearance for encryption.  I received an Honorable Discharge with an offer to re-enlist.

Since my discharge from active duty I have been a leader in the Restaurant industry for over 20 years.  I have worked for various corporate and family owned chains and held management positions at various levels including Director of Operations of as many as 29 units; and my wife and I have even been blessed and had the opportunity to own and operate our own restaurants in recent years.  I spent most of these 20+ years in California as I was discharged from Camp Pendleton, CA at the end of my service.

I met my wife in 1995 in San Diego County, CA.  She and I worked for the same company, a family owned Taco Bell franchise.  In fact, she had been working for them over 15 years (since she was 16 years old) when we first met.  That’s a testimony in itself.  I remember our first date to see the movie “Mr Holland’s Opus.”  I was sure from that very first date that I wanted her in my life.  She was so special, so warm, and so gentle.  The most gentle person I had ever met to that point in my life; and still is.  She was also a mother of two and working her tail off to provide for them since their dead-beat dad was not in the picture (he still is not, and is in the arrears to the tune of over $125,000 in child support and could not care less).

We married and began to have children of our own in 1999.  Stephen was our first.  We both decided to make a huge leap and leave California for Florida (closer to my family).  I can think of two main reasons at that time; 1) members her family (mostly her mother) were relentless in their efforts to control her (now our) every move.  They were not about to change and we knew any effort to modify their behavior was futile.  Therefore we decide that “distance” would help tremendously.  We were right for the most part, although they were still very persistent in many of their controlling ways. 2) also, California was far too costly a place to settle down and raise our growing family, now with 3 children.  The move to Florida was slow going at first as anyone could imagine, but eventually we settled in nicely.

I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior in October of 2000 at the ripe old age of 33 while living in Jacksonville, FL.  My boss who owned 4 BBQ restaurants led me to the Lord.  He spoke to me every chance he could and always followed up with an invitation to church (quite tempting as he would also be sure I had Sunday off – if I was to accept his invitation).  My wife had already decided to attend the church and was in regular attendance with our children on Sundays.  This went on for about 9 months or so. 

I remember to this day the Saturday afternoon in October of 2000 when I was on my knees in my Pastors office praying the sinners prayer asking Jesus to come into my heart, or better yet “answering HIS call.”  I had called Larry (my Pastor) because I simply could not shake this indescribable feeling of emptiness.  I could not understand why I had this immense feeling that my life was a failure (with all I had accomplished and with all my success???).  I was very confused and even somewhat tired as I recall, emotionally exhausted to be very honest.  In the end –and the beginning, I realized there was an emptiness (a hole in my heart – if you will) that ONLY Jesus could fill.  Jesus did just that…in that very moment!  My wife and I joined that church and were members for several years before moving to North Carolina.  More importantly, I began my walk with MY LORD and Savior.  That church was a Baptist Church, however I absolutely would sooner refer to myself as a “Christian” or a “Born-again Christian” than a Baptist.  I do however feel convicted and strongly believe that the Baptist Doctrine is the closest to the “Bible Belief” that I feel led to pursue.  Having said that, I also know and have always acknowledged (since my salvation) that there are Christians in other denominations and that one’s “personal relationship” with Christ is what really matters.

I have done my best to serve the Lord, walk with the Lord, and to respond to his calling for my life in the midst of life’s typical distractions, and often have failed miserably along the way.  But, I have seen victories as well.  I have been on two mission trips (Honduras and Guatemala) and plan to expand my missions involvement both locally and abroad.  I feel a strong calling toward missions and I have a heart for children’s ministries as well.  Often times these two intersect.  I’m counting on that as the Lord leads me to my next destination.  I am a member of a truly blessed church in Morrisville, NC.  A congregation of believers of like mind and one accord.  I am active in as much as I can be; AWANAS, VBS, Choir, Praise Band, Sunday School, and Sound Tech duties during Worship.  It is truly a blessing in itself.  GOD IS AMAZING!  And LAST, but NOT LEAST, and clearly my greatest VICTORY in LIFE and in CHRIST…I have been tremendously BLESSED with a family that I can hardly begin to describe completely enough.  Please go to OUR PRECIOUS GIFTS and you will be able to read more about how my children and my wife have impacted my “very existence.”

Currently 2011, I am fighting our government for the return of my children with all I have been blessed with by my creator and the Lord of my life.  There seems to be no greater EVIL that the type of evil I am up against.  But I am also confident that GOD IS IN CONTROL and that HIS WILL shall prevail no matter what any of us does.  I continue to PRAY and ASK for HIS guidance through this very troubling time.  I would ask that you (the reader) stop, and even now, say a short prayer for each of my children Melissa, Timothy, Stephen, Matthew, Hannah, Sarah, Joseph, and Benjamin and of course my loving wife DEBRA; and for the return of my children to their mother and father where they belong.  PERIOD!  I have said it before; My immediate FAMILY comes FIRST, above all else, except GOD the Father, GOD the Holy Spirit, and GOD the Son – Jesus Christ.  Thank you!  MAY GOD BLESS YOU, YOUR FAMILY, AND YOUR CHILDREN!

  1. Judge Lori Christian, in support of her fellow colleagues, brought my then 15 year old home from whence he should never have been taken from me, and was done so under the most heinous, despicable, felony crimes you could never imagine by the powers that were supposed to protect us, and then, after being aware of my ex lying in court to her, his positive drug test, and my refusal to cooperate with Child Protective Services to put my child in a state mental health facility, to raise funds for Wake County and the state when there was nothing wrong with my son, as evidenced by Dr. Gualitiri, the best neuropsychiatrist in the state, she forced my son to return to his drug addicted, abusive, alcoholic, and perjurous ex husband. Now Klacey J. Smith is writing our story, and the first of three books is due to be released in August/September. All the crimes against us will be revealed in these three books. I can’t write that story because, Judge Lori Christian threatened me that if I tell of the last two cases that she presided over, she would put me in prison. So, now we have an author to write the story for me! Ha, take that byatch! See and subscribe to the sites below in support against Judge Lori Christian and others just like her.

    my story begins with the letter i will paste below this but has now included two federal judges that have violated title 42 section 1987 of federal code to cover up the child porn that was put on my home computer by my ex now this is not coinsidence they have used this before and that is why they dont want to expose it.

    Court house news
    Cc: associated press
    My story begins with my now ex-wife that decided to try to send me to prison for child porn instead of divorcing me so she would get everything. She was aware of this same crime being committed against my friend James troy but when he could prove that he was not even home when the stuff was downloaded to his computer they covered it up so she knew that they would have no other choice but to cover it up again. I mention this other case as this is how she obtained the pictures she had to go to the police station and look at the pictures as this friend had watched our kids before and they had to make sure that the pictures were not of our kids. She worked as a paramedic in this town for fourteen years so she knew all of them very well and either convinced them to allow her to view these pictures at home or stole them from the police station. In September of 2006 the Spalding county sheriff department came to my home while I was at a job interview and seized my home computer for distribution of pornography after I found a nude photo of my wife on the internet. She told the sheriff that I put this photo on the internet and filed a complaint to have the computer examined. A few days after the seizure of the computer I was served with divorce papers so I began looking through stuff for any evidence of her actions and found a disc that was a backup of her laptop that had several hidden files on it I began to get concerned after knowing what this sheriff did to my friend so I took this disc to a local attorney for safe keeping. About two weeks later we got into an argument about the computer and she said she couldn’t help what sites I went to on the computer and I slipped and told her I had the disc and would prove who did what to the computer and the cover up began. The computer was then retrieved from the Georgia buero of investigations who was supposed to investigate it and according to the report the one photo was examined only but after having the computer for 5 months in early January when I went to pick up the computer I was told that the g.b.i. went through every aspect of it and could not find out who posted this picture to the internet. So why lie to me about who looked into the computer? Because I didn’t get the police report until long after this case was supposed to be closed and after attempting to view the file in person they knew they had to cover this up or risk getting caught for doing it the first time. I will list some other people who have blatantly lied to me in writing and ask why if the report is accurate it should be easy for them to say so and not lie to me.
    Spalding county sheriff deputy tony ranieri destroyed evidence and falsified reports as shown in his letter saying he destroyed the evidence with the sheriff logo on the top.
    Spalding county district attorney Scott Ballard who after signing for the evidence and a request to investigate has done nothing and refused to ever meet with me or take my phone calls.
    Janis Davis governor’s office who told me that she forwarded the files to the appropriate people and when I asked for their names to follow up she told me she forgot so I asked her to look it up as she would have to document it she refused to even answer.
    David McLaughlin with the attorney general’s office who said in his letter “I am not sure what you want this office to do but I am sure it is out of our jurisdiction” how could he know this if he didn’t know what I wanted and my letter could not have been more clear that I wanted an investigation into this deputy and the district attorney which is within his jurisdiction as it would involve the state in a law suit.
    Carlton peoples who also refused to investigate my allegations of abuse and violations of my rights.
    Steven Harrell at the d.o.j. who after several months of discussing this case with him decided to allow the violations of my right to justice continue.
    Bobbie Bernstein and Mr Moossey of the d.o.j. who’s names are on the letter from their office as persons who worked on my case and according to Mr Purdue of the o.i.g. had to decide whether or not to investigate this case. “Mr Harrell can’t decide whether or not to persue a case that has to be done by an attorney a paralegal is nothing but a glorified secretary”.
    Frank Purdue of the office of the inspector general who tried to tell me in a recorded call that the o.i.g. does not investigate the f.b.i. or the d.o.j. for abuse of power.
    Eric Johnson of the o.i.g. who denied me my rights as well in writing.
    Andrew of the government accountability office (fraud net) who after a few weeks of reviewing the evidence told me in writing that his office did not take complaints from citizens directly contradicting their web page and their mission statements saying that fraud net is for any citizen to report fraud and abuse of power.
    My case was filed in the district court In Dayton Ohio and the two judges who tried to dismiss it violated civil rights code title 42 sections 1987 requiring them to prosecute violations of this nature I will paste a copy of that law here for your convenience it is also in my filings. If this has peeked your interest please read file three of my submission as it is a response to the courts when I was told my case needed to be well written. Now after re-reading it, it could use some finishing touches but my intentions are clear and the facts are the facts and these people are attempting to cover up child porn so why would they do this? Do you remember when a lot of people in Washington dc were caught with the same type of material on their computers were they set up as well to get them out of the way? I have told you of two stories are their more is this why they are covering it up? I know this cannot be any part of a legitimate investigation as there have been more than one attempt on my life and my children have been parentally kidnapped to try to silence me but I will have justice will you help me by publishing my story? If so please contact me at
