Christopher Bollyn
Last August 15, a gang of three undercover cops came to my house and brutally assaulted me during an unjustified arrest. I was TASERed while handcuffed and restrained by two men and my right elbow was broken in front of my wife and 8-year-old daughter.

There is no independent confirmation of Bollyn’s version of events. He spent his entire career until recently working for infamous Nazi publisher Willis Carto and frequently filed misleading stories. He was recently fired by the editor of Carto’s paper for filing false stories. Fellow neo-Nazi types like Michael Collins Piper have questioned his honesty.

One of the sites you link to pushes the theory that Jews carry out “ritual murder”

Is there a copy of the arrest report anywhere? This should be in the public record.
The links do go straight to a pretty scary part of wooland...

I doubt police publish their arrest report on the internet.

Hmm a fast reading said
"This site has a translation of a book published in 1941 in Germany"
this book was probably made by the Nazis as an excuse for exterminate the Jews.

-Returning to the topic.-
The two links i provided talk about Bollyn's assault by the police.
Stay on topic please.

There's a lot more out there than just the internet. Books and papers and stuff.

EDIT: Where was he treated for his elbow? I find it uneasy to trust somebody with a reputation like this on his word solely.

Police dont publish their arrest report on the newspapers.

Probably he have reveal this on the court trial.

I was trying to make a point of 'the public record' being more than just the internet.

Yes and the site approvingly links to a bit of hateful Nazi propoganda, does make you wonder about about the site and people who run it. Bollyn it seems is one of them

Its on topic because it reflects negetivly on the reliability of Bollyn and the site

Why? Many police departments in the US post arrest reports on the Net.

Still waiting for any independant confirmation of Bollyn's version of events.

[lenbrazil]

Bollyn’s version of events doesn’t make sense. He claims he saw “a suspicious car with three armed men wearing body armor slowly pass his house for the second day in a row. Concerned, he discusses situation with his wife, Helje” at “19:20 (Estimate)”, does he call the police? Nope he left his wife and 8 year-old daughter at home “and takes bicycle to store”. But he suddenly became so concerned about the car while at the store that he called 911 about it from there.

He claims a police dispatcher heard “police saying that a "fight is in progress" at Bollyn residence” before he or the police got to his house and then asks why an ambulance and so many cars and cops were dispatched to the scene! When there is a report of a fight in progress involving police it is normal for several available units to be dispatched to the scene especially since crime rates have dropped and most police departments have excess manpower.

As for his claim the report of the fight came before he arrived I’d like to hear the police’s version I don’t trust Bollyn.

He seems a bit paranoid he wrote:

“Helje [his wife “a Swedish citizen who was born and educated in Estonia”*] asks the men," What are you doing? Are you crazy?"

Off. Barber, who worked with the Dept. of Homeland Security in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina, responds with an insulting remark, "You go back where you came from?"

Helje, who speaks fluent English, asks Barber, "How do you know I am not from here?"

Note: Barber's comment indicates he has been prepared with information about the Bollyn family in advance.”

Perhaps all that Barber’s comment indicates is that he noticed her accent! Most people who move to a second (or third) country as an adult continue to speak with an accent. She can’t have been in the US too long because according to Bollyn both their kids were born in Sweden and the girl was only 8*.

'sides, most native Swedes have an atrocious accent when trying to speak English...

[wingerii]

"With just a week to go before my jury trial, I need to raise about $1500 to cover the remaining fees for my defense counsel..."

Can anyone else smell a scam? Anyone who donates to him based on his word alone... well, a popular idiom about fools and money comes to mind.


"I was subsequently charged with two trumped-up misdemeanor charges and immediately became the subject of a well-orchestrated international campaign to discredit me – and by extension my writings and research. Who was controlling the hidden hand behind this campaign?"

I think insanity may be an effective defense in this case.

That is why Bollyn want the recordings
"This is why the recording of the police transmissions is required to show what was said and by whom."

Hmm maybe he have good reasons of being very suspicious
considering that the suspicious vehicle and men that provoked Bollyn's concern, logs in to assist Fitzgerald. (Police log)


19:43:34 911 Call Received – From store, Bollyn calls police (911) about suspicious vehicle with armed men seemingly prowling around his home. Dispatcher agrees for a police officer to come to Bollyn house in 20 minutes. (Police log)



19:46:46 911 Call Entered – Bollyn’s call is entered into 911 Northwest Central Dispatch System (NWCDS). (Police log)



19:47:41 Police Officer Dispatched – 911 Dispatcher No. 5681 (NWCDS) dispatches uniformed HEPD Officer John Fitzgerald in vehicle No. 6131C to Bollyn residence. (Police log)



19:48:09 Three-man out-of-uniform tactical unit wearing body armor (No. 6744), the suspicious vehicle and men that provoked Bollyn's concern, logs in to assist Fitzgerald. (Police log)

Questions: Who authorized this unit to be sent to Bollyn house and why? Why is this unit still in the neighborhood after 30 minutes?

Chief of Police Clint Herdegen told Bollyn, on August 17, that he had sent this unit to their house to explain. Why would the C.O.P. send the suspicious vehicle with out-of-uniform armed men, the very cause of Bollyn's concern, back to his house? How could this be not seen as extremely provocative?

[scooter]

So again, why, after seeing the suspicious vehicle with armed men trolling the neighborhood, did he go to the store and leave his family alone in the house???
And these requests for money...doesn't he have a real job or something? Begging is just so...low.
