How to get away with murder?
- Lie, manipulate, misinform, hide, come up with your own story, nip and tuck evidence to fit that story, and never, and I mean, NEVER, tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. That's how you get away with it. And that's how the Commonwealth got away with it.
Below is an excerpt from a 32-page brief presented to the Appeals Court in winter 2023, this "masterpiece" of legal thinking came from the Attorney General's office. The ATTORNEY GENERAL of Virginia. The Top Dog in this game. The AG continued to cover up the lies started by Fauquier County.
But before we go into that, here is what exactly went wrong and ultimately led to Yeva's unnecessary and preventable death.
1. Before Yeva swallowed a piece of a dog collar, she had gone through a serious and rather lengthy illness (supported by vet records) that affected her appetite and GI health which ultimately resulted in weight deficiency. She regained her normal appetite shortly before the accident. My vet records were my alibi but no one in the Commonwealth cared, they decided I should be guilty from day 1. Imagine, if your dog has cancer, or IBS, or megaesophagus, or an advanced cardiac disease, or pancreatitis, or renal failure, - your pet will have some or a lot of weight loss, And you get thrown in jail without any explanation just because your dog is sick. Not because you conducted a criminal act, But because your dog is not 100% perfect. And 100% perfect is som**hing "they", the gov-t, decide, at their own will. Awesome, right?
2. Yeva went through a stomach exploratory surgery on the 2nd day after she threw up and stopped eating.
3. She successfully went through that surgery and her vitals were good.
4. Her doctor failed to perform any important follow-up diagnostics to make sure everything went well, such as a barium study to make sure there were no more obstructions, and that her intestines were functioning well, or daily blood work to outrule potential infections, way too common with stomach surgeries.
5. The doctor, as it turned out at the trial, left a piece of plastic in her intestines. Didn't even know about it after he did the first surgery. Because he didn't bother checking. But had he done a barium study, that would have been identified. For 6 days she lived in agony while that plastic moved and tore her intestines in a different area causing peritonitis.
6. Following serious surgeries or illnesses, if a patient cannot eat on his own, the patient has to be fed in an alternative way, such as tube feeding or IV feeding. This did not happen. Yeva WAS NOT FED FOR 6 DAYS while under the complete supervision of the vet clinic. She was starving. And unable to eat because read #5: she had another stomach obstruction that was left untreated. So, for a dog that already has weight deficiency, not eating for another 6 days is detrimental. She wasted to a state of a mummy.
The success rate of ANY foreign body removal surgery is about 50-50, no matter what weight, studies say. I made sure Yeva had her 50% chance of survival. That day, when she had her surgery, the doctor took away that chance. Leaving a foreign body in the intestines dropped her chance of survival to 0%, no matter what weight.
7. As it turned out at the trial, the sutures in the area where she had her first stomach surgery came apart, various fluids leaking into her abdomen for days, causing infection, which was left unnoticed as well.
8. The reason the doctor put her under a second anaesthesia to perform a second surgery, unbeknownst to me, was because she had puss coming out of her abdominal incision. All - without my knowledge or consent.
9. Yeva died when the doctor tried to perform a second surgery. If she was in a condition of a mummy, without any appropriate bloodwork, nutrition for a week, xrays, ultrasound, consent of the owner, what kind of a doctor puts the dog under anaesthesia that has a high chance of killing any animal in this condition?
And now let's look at the "masterpiece" the AG came up with. Keep in mind, in the beginning of 2023 neither I or my lawyer or any of the judges involved had any knowledge of what I described above. But the police and prosecutors did.
1. The dog died due to a foreign object. That's the official cause of death. Is this a crime or an accident related?
2. In a 32-page bried this is the only time, one sentence, they refer to the real reason, although nipped and tucked, of how Yeva died. Judges don't know medicine. And this is how the Commonwealth diverted their attention from the real issue. Plus they withheld the critical details. Many times they refer to her being underweight. They don't outright accuse me, they kind of leave it up to the imagination, but provide few but unpleasant details. Like, the Dog went through a lot of suffering. Yes, she did. Read what the doctor did and then this will turn your stomach knowing what Yeva lived through while at the vet clinic. Did I do this? No. Where in this excerpt or anywhere in any of the briefs provided by the Commonwealth in 3 years did it say that Dr..... is responsible for the dog's death due to....? Nowhere. Up until 2022 the State didn't even dare to fess up that Yeva ended up in the hospital due to stomach obstruction which is accidental by nature unless, let's say, you shove drugs down a dog's throat thus killing it, then that's 100% abuse. The State concentrated on the weight to compromise the emotional and professional bias of the judges. And distract them from the real facts. It's a crime against the civilians when the prosecution twists facts thus compromising the quality and integrity of any judge's decision because such a decision affects the civilians not the prosecution.
Why is all this important?
The US Constitution protects us from illegal searches and seizures. The only way the State could search and seize my property was if they proved I abused Yeva and she died as a result of that abuse. That's 1. 2 - the key element of a felony charge is malice. They had to prove that she was maliciously AND intentionally abused and died as a result of this conduct.
Well, it's hard, if not impossible, to prove any of the required elements when you have a dog necropsy in front of you saying that the dog died as a result of veterinary malpractice, right? AND when an owner willingly brings their pet to a vet hospital for necessary care. This kind of destroys the whole malice element automatically. You can't abuse to kill and then treat to save. There is no logic in this.
Then how do you get a warrant if you don't have a crime, a victim, a criminal act and even an intent? Right, you lie, manipulate, misinform, hide, come up with your own story, nip and tuck evidence to fit that story, and never, and I mean, NEVER, tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
