Montgomery County, MD District and Circuit Court still practicing "Inhumane treatment against disabled and other Protected Class"

Where justice is denied, where poverty is enforced, where ignorance prevails, and where any one class is made to feel that society is an organized conspiracy to oppress, rob and degrade them, neither persons nor property will be safe.     Frederick Douglass

The President of the United States Presidential Proclamation “National Mental Health Awareness Month”, May 2016. I believe this means he supports person with disabilities and to ensure that receive"equal opportunity secure civil rights protection and ADA accommodations. What the President's proclamation means to me is awareness and cease discrimination and to remove "all" barriers that prevent a disabled community from having a voice, access or participation in the mainstream society. Therefore, I decided to tell my story of the abuse and inhumane treatment I received the State of Maryland Courts system in Montgomery County/agencies. (The protected class includes race, gender, religion, disability, etc). The American history exposes that the Justice System is run by KKK and/or white citizens council. When I appeared in court,  I was treated worse than a dog, it reminds me of the 60's during the Civil Rights as they wore hide "white hoods" but today some wear black robes, but I stood up for myself that bias Judge couldn't stop that. The Justice System in Montgomery County, MD is dominated by white males judges while traffic stops are dominated by blacks, therefore, traffic stops will never become equal. “Justice rules only where just men rule”Niccolo Machiavelli’s philosophy.




My life journey suddenly changed due to a sudden illness. Later, I was diagnosed with an incurable disease and diagnosed with other chronic illness which caused me to become disabled. I was a pro se litigant at Civil Court in Montgomery County, MD District Court Judge Sanderson, a biased Judge who ask me if I believe the Court is racist? I don't know why he asked me, I never said those words. I guess because I am black. Maybe he thought I was a member of "black lives matter!" But I answered him with truth and told him, yes, look around all the cops are white males and the litigants are minorities which the blacks are the majority. Are you blind? He looked proud to be in a system that justifies blacks to serve as "slaves" in prison and force free labor in jails. He turned red after I answered him I guess his punishment was to give me a fine. But he didn't realize he did my conscience a favor what I thought in the first place a biased justice system and these Judges support white supremacy. I know because of that question I am stigmatized for stating the truth, I am not a sellout.




Then, I appealed and went to Circuit Court in Maryland in Montgomery County John W. Debelius III, a biased Judge a  "Good ole boy network" discriminated against me with a visible and invisible disability. I became very ill and was diagnosed with a chronic illness and had several operations. He had the nerve to announced my disability in court as he violated the HIPPA and ADA law, Do I think he is prejudice? As John W. Debelius III showed off in front of the white males in the court to "teach me a lesson" to never file a complaint against an officer who stopped me during a traffic stop. I really don't have to watch T.V. as my former ancestors dealt with the same injustices. But I would do it over again if an officer violates my rights I will file a complaint.  This what happens in Montgomery County, Maryland they don't like it when you file a complaint against a cop especially a black person. They don't like the truth about statistics by race, either! You see the race component is 13% blacks and 65% whites and blacks get stops the most. The Judge's charge blacks misappropriate high amount of the tickets in Montgomery County, MD and they say they are not racist? There are more white male cops in Montgomery County, MD and White male Judges now you see why blacks are misappropriated in sentences, fines, and mass incarceration? So filing a complaint will further expose their reckless bias behavior. Then you have the minorities Jewish, Asian, black or women Judges who feel pressured to conform to "White Supremacy" rulings in Montgomery County, Maryland then you will not have minorities especially blacks paying a servitude system in Montgomery County, MD. Challenge me to check the statistics by race, the equality speaks for itself. (Focus traffic fines and targeted by race by the blacks litigants.)


 “A person with a “disability” is someone who has a physical, mental or communication disability that substantially limits one or more of the major life activities such as caring for oneself, performing manual tasks, walking, seeing, hearing, speaking, breathing, learning and working”.

I applied for ADA accommodations under the American Disability Act to ensure that I have access to court services and participate in my trial like an average person. “The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (“ADA”) was enacted to prohibit discrimination against people with disabilities. Under Title II of the Act, no qualified individual with a disability shall, by reason of such disability, be excluded from participation in or be denied the benefits of services, programs or activities of a public entity. This prohibition applies to the state courts as providers of public programs and services. People with disabilities are to be given an equal opportunity to access, use and fully participate in court services and programs, and not be discriminated against because of their disability.".

I request for a postponement because the court date was scheduled at the same time I was scheduled for surgery. Right after the surgery, I had a surgical procedure and I was informed that I couldn’t no longer postpone after the 2nd surgery. I really didn’t have any assistance to fill out the ADA/reasonable accommodations documents however I failed to necessary paperwork for ADA accommodations. The District Court ADA Coordinator stamped my ADA accommodation document and I heard from her again. On the court date and the Judge refused to execute my ADA accommodations nor the ADA Coordinator attended court to ensure I receive my ADA requests. I spoke to the Judge John W. Debelius III about my ADA accommodations, he became very rude, turned red in the race and basically refused my disability/ ADA accommodations which were granted to me.

Montgomery County, Maryland justice system already been investigated by the Department of Justice for racial profiling, disproportion tickets by race, mass incarceration issues, unfair sentences and unfair practices similar to the national issue when it comes to black drivers and white police officers (DOJ, 2002). As it is usual practice a person of color is guilty under this justice system who never was fair nor equal. I had to file an appeal to the Maryland Circuit Court and the discriminatory treatment has gotten worst but it's expected. The security at the entrance door took my cane which I use it to balance as I walk. They yelled when I walk too slow in line and they were yelling at me so abusively.  I also wanted to report to them that the Circuit Court entrance door disability button gets stuck and the door doesn't open. Since they treated me as if I was invisible and that “Disabled Lives Don’t Matter”, I didn’t have the opportunity to report the entrance doors due to their behavior.

I contacted the Maryland Disability Law Center, a non-profit organization who suppose to advocate for disabled person civil rights; the agency responded to me  4 months later. A non-profit organization who gets funds to assist the disabled community don't assist the disabled not because they are busy. They don't assist the disabled because of politics; they afraid of losing their funding vs. the law ( doing the right thing). Society got to be tired of supporting these nonprofits who use the same law to oppress the people they suppose to assist. They have pictures or pamphlets as if they assist them and really don't because of politics; the money is used for operating expenses such as staff pay, conferences, etc. We have to hold them accountable!

The State of Maryland supposed to be dedicated to a full compliance with the "reasonable accommodation" requirements and the Americans with Disabilities Act. Maryland Commission on Civil Rights (MCCR) is a covered agency,  a disabled person makes them aware that they are disabled (oral or written) a request reasonable accommodations should be provided. Therefore, I proceeded to file for ADA accommodations at the Circuit Court with the ADA Coordinator and she communicated with me more than the District Court ADA Coordinator. She approved my ADA accommodations. I postponed the first court date due to another surgery and my health was deteriorating. The accumulation of medication and chronic pain limited my mobility and the medication mentally impaired me. I had supportive documentation from the doctors informing the Circuit Court Judge W. Debelius III that my condition disabling me from comprehending court procedures and my chronic impairments limit my mobility. 


The JudgJohn W. Debelius III disregarded the doctors note that advised to postpone the case however acted bias while the State prosecutor request that she would be dismissed my case due to my impairments. The prosecutor was more concern with my health and impairments than the Judge John W. Debelius III. Then the Judge started reading my medical information violating the HIPPA law which also covers me as a person violated under non-covered entities. While my health turned to worst in court the Judge John W. Debelius III  told me I can leave the court and they would proceed with the trial without me.  What happens to State prosecutor who supposes to ensure justice, why she was silent? She wanted to win the case? Who is in charge over the State Prosecutor, Attorney John McCarthy who violates the disability law! I was so weak I laid outside the courtroom and the Judge W. Debelius III never called for an ambulance; my friend came and assisted me in her car.  This incident was tape recorded. I was informed to contact Maryland Judicial Committee but later was warned that the Judge John W. Debelius III who discriminated against me in Circuit Court has a coworker on the Judicial Disability Board! It is rumored that the Judicial disabilities are a "good ole boy network, dominated by white males!" Whereas the Jew judges look white however considered minorities white supremacy utilizing these judges like the "Willie Lynch" letter to continue to dominate fines and unequal sentences mostly against blacks litigants then minorities.


Therefore, when it comes to the protected class we don't deserve respect, ethics or dignity from the Judges in Maryland. Why should I go to Judicial disability in Maryland the "Good ole boy network" dominated by white males who are friends that protect each other? If you don't believe go to traffic court you will see all white male officers, some white women with traffic tickets ( they are considered minorities), you will see other minorities, consumed with blacks, Hispanics and then you will see one or two white males. I come sometimes just to sit and watch, a white young man had a ticket decreased to $27; blacks litigants tickets increased to up $500 to $1,000; Hispanics $300 and $700: White women $180 and $300: other minorities $220 and $500; now you see blacks? All the officers were white males; this is how they make money off black people blacks pay off the "Justice System" and blacks don't get any justice! It was announced that Judge John W. Debelius III is retiring August 1st, 2017, now Judge Robert Greenberg ( a Jewish Judge) is appointed he was on the board "Judicial Disabilities" was a terrible Associate Judge now he is taking over Administrative Circuit Court Judge, "You have to wonder who is worst?"

Are these minority Judges especially Jewish judges conformed to "white supremacy" and unequal justice? When the word "black" is spoken in these courts in Montgomery County, MD you are racially profiled and stigmatized to a justice system that doesn't favor a person of color especially black. Then I filed to the highest Court in Maryland of Appeals and I was informed by Judge Mary Ellen Barbera that the State of Maryland isn't interested in hearing my case. Basically mean Maryland isn't interested in hearing about the injustice, discrimination and the unequal system that has been going on at the Macy Dixie Line in Maryland. That the Maryland prison system is full of blacks in jails ( servitude system), unequal sentences,  high traffic fines! That our Judges is fine with an unequal system just as long their family doesn't have to suffer these injustices. So with these Judges White Supremacy attitudes of unequal Justice no wonder why statistics proves unequal "Justice System" in Maryland.

The State of Maryland Courts in Montgomery County is dominated by one race and gender- white males then minority that is why justice is disappropriated by race?  The courts face obstacles when it comes to the protected class race, gender, and disability, race,  etc., this is supported by statistics. A disabled man, Ethan Saylor died in police custody. Maryland was the first State to create an executive order by the Former Governor O'Malley who created the Commission on Effective Community Inclusion of Individuals with Intellectual and Development Disabilities. They were in charge of developing public policy for the State. The Ethan Sayler Alliance was created to implement the Commissions recommendations for increased training for members of law enforcement and other public entities (Mighty newsletter).

The Maryland State Assembly should include the Maryland Courts personnel to take this sensitive training to communicate with the disabled community. Then our New Governor Larry Hogan who had an advanced form of cancer stage 3 non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and in remission, thank God! But according to the “Disability Blue Book”, he might be still considered disabled. You have to wonder if Governor Hogan understands if he was treated or experience negative treatment like the average citizens of the State of Maryland public entities; cold, insensitive and discriminatory. Is the exception to the rule because he is the Governor?

The Americans Disability Act gives civil rights protections to individuals with disabilities similar to those provided to individuals on the basis of race, national origin, aging or religion. It guarantees equal opportunity for individuals with disabilities in public accommodations, employment, transportation, transportation, State and local government services and telecommunications, (ADA.gov) As a covered entity the Courts in Montgomery County discriminates against disabled should be fined and charged.

If Maryland refuses to enforce these laws who do the disabled persons supposed to go to? A lawyer? Most disabled can’t afford due to limited funds? We have to advocate in Courts as pro se litigants with Judges who are insensitive, unethical and biased. The State of Maryland has limited advocacy organization with limited funding. You have to wonder how many persons abused by Maryland public entities who are insensitive to disabled persons and "protected class" and refuses to comply with ADA regulations.  The disabled and protected class in Montgomery County, Maryland is treated inhumane and the State wants us to be silent and oppressed, hoping the protected class will just go away! 


Please remember there are people who groom themselves too aggressively victimized and convert abuse to intimidate people like the disabled only to distort or misrepresent to gain favor. 

Title II applies to State and local government entities, and, in subtitle A, protects qualified individuals with disabilities from discrimination on the basis of disability in services, programs, and activities provided by State and local government entities. Title II extends the prohibition on discrimination established by section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, 29 U.S.C. 794, to all activities of State and local governments regardless of whether these entities receive Federal financial assistance.
