I think about him occasionally, but I've not heard anything since he got locked up.

Same here.

This is an aside on the whole concept of the grand jury:

Just found out about another GJ victory today:
FIJA helped a group in Tennessee get letters to every member of the seated grand jury, including the page on The Grand Jury that is posted on our FIJA web site.  Also sent to every G. juror was a history of jury authority and some very good quotes.

Then, one chap sent a certified letter to the Grand Jury Foreman, requesting an opportunity to present facts.

In this particular case,  although vigorously pursued by the state atty, general, the GJ returned a no bill finding!

This is the third time we have educated a grand jury in three states, and each time, there has been a no bill finding after the GJ was educated!

So, if anyone needs any assistance on how to reach the GJ members and what to tell them, let me know.   I can help with some of it, even if not all of it.

Feralfae, that sounds like really fine work you and your fine group are doing.  I truly believe that at some point, someone doing that is going to be railroaded into jail, but it is still a great thing you folks are doing.  Just that anyone doing it had best be prepared to "pay the price."  I'm most certainly NOT saying , "don't do it" just that there is a consequence quite possible though perhaps not entirely probable.  Hope I'm not on your naughty list for so saying as you are one of the folks around here that I highly respect.

FIJA rocks... spreading a wee bit of freedom dust for one and all... :-)

Thank you, OTRN 
I am sad to relate to you that your belief is actually a flashback spanning many years. 
FIJA people have been jailed, arrested, threatened, imprisoned and sent to a Federal Government Mental Hospital for "observation." 
They have had horrid audits.  They have been brutally attacked.
They have been investigated by the FBI.
They have been legally prosecuted for being conscientious jurors. 

FIJA=NO FEAR   

We have always known that they might not let us stay free AND alive.  I cannot think of one FIJA person who does not live with that knowledge every day.  Actually,  I think many people live with that knowledge these days, here  among us freedom workers and freedom walkers.   Why else would we have these boards, if not to help each other to be better prepared, better able to teach and encourage and persuade others, if not because we all know the inevitable reaction of the JBTs and their handlers will to be the absolute abandonment of any pretense at civility or recognition of human rights, even just lip service, and the open flaunting of raw, violent, death-dealing power?

That is why we are here.  And HERE.

Looks like the General Discussion section is down, but since this deals with juries and runaway prosecutors I guess I'll post it here.

MA Supreme Courts determines it's okay from prosecutors to run criminal background checks on the jury pool.

Criminal checks on jurors OK'd during trial

The state's highest court ruled yesterday that prosecutors can run criminal background checks on jurors during a trial if government lawyers have reason to believe that jurors failed to disclose criminal records that could affect their ability to judge the case fairly.

Thank you ND.
In days past, when the venier was truly local, of course everyone knew who was on the jury and all about each juror.  No one could get away with hiding a history of criminal behaviour - and then, criminal behaviour was not about breaking government laws where there was no victim.  Crime then meant that there was a human victim harmed in some way.

There were far fewer prosecutions, of course, since there were far fewer laws.

Having read the article, I can see why the prosecutors felt that some jurors might be biased, but I don't think that justifies opening up background checks on all jurors henceforth.
Another invasion of privacy, for sure.

Being a father, I know the support you are showing him will make him proud. If I knew my family was in it for the long haul, it would make all of the difference when it comes to serving time for the cause of freedom.

You, your family, and your father will indeed be in my prayers.

Take care,

Hey...This is sui juris's son again ...Thanks again, for your concerns. I have witnesssed ,and at times... participated in and suffered over the years in the accomplishments and in the defeats... good times and the bad in my fathers quest to obtain "true freedom" that is driven into the heads of every american from birth that are told we have...but, when push comes to shove...we never seem to achieve and then left sticky...dazed and confused as to what happened... when we're locked up or opening our wallet to pay fines...I thought I am an american...I free...  not thee "illusion of freedom" that those whom are in power, grant us... to maintain control over all...$$$. I am a cartoonist and because of my fathers cause I have created a character who's name is kentucky johnson sjf (sui juris freeman)... A constitutional crusader, who at any moment... when the ugly forces of tyranny rise ...He and his faithful and fearless sidekick,his dog Zues...With picket signs in hand, confront those who dare to kidnap lady liberty...Over the year of 2006 I have drawn over 70 individual cartoons pertaining to my fathers quest and plight...I have printed these on t-shirts and a c.d. the kentucky johnson "picket til your nad's fall off... never let em see ya sweat" CD...This all is sort of a living visual account diary and or journal of my dad's journey...It's all pretty cool stuff. It's a way for me to vent about what has happened to my dad...and to peacefully coment about the things my dad and I also feel is wrong with our country today...Well,it would seem, my time is up...I'll write later...
