Ive been not too much of a bother. But I had to write it to myself even if no one else reads a word Ive written it still needed to be in print. Steven Charles Whipples Accurate Account of the night of Christmas Eve 2011 When My Civil Rights, according to the ADA Federal laws governing the American Disability Act, were violated by an unprovoked assault from a drunken thug in the only place where I felt safe from harm. And that being in the confines of my own home. Its not much, but it IS my castle. I am writing this letter to myself because at present I dont know who can or will make this nightmare a bit easier to tolerate. This is as true as true can be. Black is black. There are no gray areas in this manuscript, it happened just like this story reads.

I am mentally disabled & was assaulted in my own home by a local thug

And the Sheriff or the County Attorney have not offered me any assistance or advice about how to protect myself. The States greatest responsibility is protect its citizens from harm or calamity. And its greatest crime is its failure to do so.

I am a Schizophrenic 58 year old man living alone in Hemphill County, Canadian, Texas. I very seldom venture from my apartment for fear of having to defend my particular brand of mental disorders from an occasional local bully and/or local law enforcement officials who mistake my nervousness for guilt of an imaginary crime that wasnt even committed. . I was assaulted in my own home last Christmas eve and I haven't heard from the county attorney who is supposed to prosecute my attacker or any police officers either. My attacker shoved a cell phone down my throat and threatened to pull my eyes out with his car keys if I got up off the floor. He was only charged with a misdemeanor assault even though he threatened to kill me. I am in fear of my wellbeing and the sheriff's office and the county attorney are treating me as if I'm from the wrong side of the tracks. I can't protect myself and local officials know that & have yet to offer me any assurance that I neednt worry. My sister finally called the Texas Rangers and a Lt. with the Texas Rangers called Hemphill Countys sheriff & asked him why Mr. Lovell had not been arrested if there had been a warrant issued for assaulting me. He was arrested a few days later and released on a cash bond. . I stay at home and only go into three other buildings in the county because my mind doesnt function properly and I do not feel safe anywhere else but home. I do genealogy work for other people to get a little extra money and my attacker beat me and my computers up. I need them for my research work and I have lost thousands of dollars because Kenneth Lovell could and did beat me up in my own home. I was sober and he was drunk He immediately upon entering my home asked if I had a joint and his wife told him that Whipple doesnt smoke marijuana. He was looking for a fight and he knew he could kick my ass so he did just that. If I'm not safe in my own home where can I be safe? Why was he charged with simple assault when I am entitled to be secure from harm according to the Americans with Disability Act? The federal government has sent me a disability check for 13 years 1

because Im sick and cannot act accordingly to the norm of modern society. He beat the crap out of me and the county officials aren't the least bit disturbed by that FACT. He admitted he beat me up in a letter he delivered to the Sheriffs Office and a copy of the same letter was delivered to my friend Billy Zenor at his place of business. He signed it with his legal signature too. I dont have to prove he stomped my butt because he admitted it. He said I lunged at him so therefore he was forced to opossum stomped me in selfdefense. I am not physically able to lunge at anyone. I am not a healthy man & have never been able to make a school yard bully leave me alone. Ive lived here all my life and have never started a fight; even in grade school I never fought. He took my witness home,(his wife), and his jewelry off, (so as not to cut or bruise me) and willfully and intentionally came back to my home and shoved a telephone down my throat obstructing my air passage and then threatened to blind me simply because he felt the need to kick someones ass. I called 911 when he left and reported the assault. I then told two police officers,( one was Ronnie Moore), that came to my house the very same story I am telling you now. In this part of Texas, a public servant is a matter of opinion and it is my opinion that the local judicial authorities are no different than the thug that beat me up and trashed my computers. They just wear different colored hats. I have been in and out of mental institutions for 42 years and I believed that finally I had found a safe place, not from my demons, but from drunken thugs. My demons will always be a whisper or shout away & no court in the land can give back to me what he stole from me last Christmas eve. That small amount of peaceful thought was severed I can cowboy up & get over a whipping that I didnt deserve, but I cant afford any more demons in my life. My health care people & doctors do what they can, which is more than I can say for our elected and constitutionally charged public servants at the court house. If I was one of their palace guards they would have handled this affair differently. But I own no land or cattle and my mineral rights dont amount to much. All I had was my genealogy, computers, and a slight sense of self-worth. But a drifter that just recently rolled into town like a tumble weed took those things away because he could. I dont know who I will send this email to that might help me, but Ill bet a days wages that the evil which paid me a visit last Christmas will walk and there wont be a Dr. of Jurisprudence sitting at my table when I go to court. Its not so much that I got the crap beat out of me; it bothers me that the state has thrown me to the wolves and as Aristotle said, Their greatest crime is the states failure to protect its citizens, or at least charge the defendant with a federal crime that was actually committed against me. In the beginning I smelled TV cameras and big shots from Austin now I see that when the verdict is decided the only head that will roll will be mine. Mental illness is still a crime in the Texas Panhandle and Austin only recognizes Hemphill County as a distant outpost not worth their time or trouble to right a wrong.

Letter and response from D. of J.

Steve Whipple 3:11 PM (1 hour ago) Disabled & Assaulted in My own Home

to ada.complaint, bcc: me, bcc: Toni To the Dept. of Justice, My name is Steven Charles Whipple, S.S. 452-94-4324, resident of Canadian, Texas. I have been treated for an assortment of mental disorders since 1973. I was attacked by an uninvited drunken hooligan, Kenneth Ray Lovell, in my home last December 24, 2011. He asked if I wanted some whiskey and I declined. He then asked if I had a joint and his wife, Roxanne Milburn Lovell, said, "Whipple doesn't smoke marijuana." We then talked about our mutual enjoyment of classic country music and he then threw $50.00 at me for a three dollar Ray Price CD. I seldom have that much money after paying my bills and accepted his offer. I then attempted to find, on my new laptop, a taping of my friend, Jim Cameron reading poetry that he had written himself regarding the cowboy way of life when I accidental clicked on the "record" icon. The recording lasted only 2 or 3 minutes before I turned it off. I thought Mr. Lovell would like to hear Jim recite his poetry ,with my old friend, Jack Bailey, playing a fiddle in the background. Mr. Lovell went to the rest room and I attempted to get up from my couch and turn the TV down when I fell to the floor because of stiffness of sore legs and lower back. Roxanne immediately went to where I lay and helped me back to the couch. Kenneth Lovell walked into the room at that point and saw her helping me sit back down on my couch. They left and 10 or so minutes later Mr. Lovell burst through the door screaming for me to delete anything on my laptop pertaining to him or not. I thought at first it was just another hallucination until Lovell crammed his cell phone down my throat obstructing my airway and screaming, "HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE TAPED?" "IF YOU GET UP FROM THE FLOOR I"LL PULL YOUR EYES OUT OF YOUR HEAD WITH MY CAR KEYES" which he held in his right hand. My sister called the Texas Rangers or I don't think Lovell would have even been arrested. Now I find that there will be no jury to decide the fate of a drunken, pot smoking bully because there will be no charges leaved at my attacker. Why is that so? I didn't have to prove Mr. Lovell beat me. He freely admitted that in a 1 1/2 page letter he delivered to the Sheriff's Office and my friend Billy Zenor at Bill's place of business. In his feeble attempt to place blame for my beating on me he mentions, what he considered filth and litter in my house. My Psychiatrist will assuredly testify that what Kenneth Lovell was describing was classic text book schizophrenic behavior that did not merit an ass whipping. Please I ask, if anyone at the D.o.J. treasures the constitutional rights of their own family members and neighbors to spend 17 minutes reading the Word document and the page and a half PDF I am sending with this email. 3

As the poet wrote, "One truth is clear... What is... is Right." And Government Official; I AM RIGHT. I feel as though the judicial system has abandoned common sense in favor of who lives on which side of the tracks. All pertinent information of who I am is included in the Word document and my attackers admission of guilt is in his own statement, signed by his own hand, and delivered to the local Sheriff by himself.
