The Gumshoe Year 2018 in Review (Maxwell)

by Mary W Maxwell

At Gumshoe we went about our normal activities, plus got caught up in a real, live event that has to do with Family Court law. I’ll review my year of articles here (there were 118) but leave it to editor Dee McLachlan to do the wrap-up on any of them that deal with the Protective Parent issue.

Series, Obituaries, Holidays

I started a few new series: Coley’s Dramatic Cancer Cures, Holocaust Revisionism, Orwell As Insider?, Fiona Barnett, Here Comes the Avalanche, War Powers Cases, Adelaide Mysteries, and Tsarnaev Appeal Possibilities.

Obituaries at Gumshoe this year were for Blanche Chavoustie, Tasmania’s attorney general Vanessa Goodwin and Port Arthur’s important witness, Wendy Scurr.

We also wrote about the death of Mark Minnie – the South African author of Boys of Bird Island, which named names. (Are you sick of hearing about whistleblowers who get bumped off?)

John McCain got an unusual obituary, if you could call it that.

Gumshoe did a Mother’s Day tribute to special needs Mums, an armistice day reflection on the art of Eric Bogle’ song, a celebration of Elias Davidson getting a book award for Betrayal of India, a laugh at EO Wilson’s treatise on the Meaning of Human Existence, a Labor’s Day item on the poet Iqbal and a critique of wonderful teenagers messing up their Shakespeare.

Following Up on Port Arthur and Marathon Bombing

Movement at the station for Martin Bryant was vey minor. Hans Overbeeke vouchsafed to meet me at a shopping mall. The hopeful sign for Sue Neill Fraser went quiet.

Worse still, Jimmy Gargasoulas maybe going the way of Martin Bryant.

We have not yet looked into Justice Michael Kirby’s hint regarding Section 75(v) of the Constitution.  If you can help us, please do.

Jahar Tsarnaev’s case saw a few upbeats this year. The ruling in McCoy v Louisiana says a person can have a re-trial based on lawyer overriding his not-guilty plea. Heather Frizzell discovered an overlooked person who should have been a witness in the trial.

I wrote to the Massachusetts medical examiner asking for inquests into the death of Tamerlan Tsarnaev and “John Doe” (a body double for Tamerlan at Laurel St shootout?).

My Travels

January 23 was an exciting day, thanks to the Watertown Public Library being the venue for my “Tsarnaev Trial” talk, which was followed by an Open Mic at which the police supervisor spoke.

My Fringe play in Adelaide in March was called “My Best False Memories,” which led to articles on false memory system, and on the players in the play: Carol Rutz, Kathleen A Sullivan, and Wendy Hoffman.

Note: the man who played Dr Delgado at the Fringe, Rodney vander Wall, was terrific, showing his deep regret for all the trouble his “implants” have caused (I’m afraid that part of the play was fictional!).

On January 5, 2018, the federal district judge in New Hampshire denied my war-powers case, Maxwell v Trump.

By February 5, I had to file my notice of Appeal for Maxwell v Trump.

The man who runs 911TV.org – Hummux — filmed my war-powers pitch in Concord, NH, including an 1889 poem called “The Ogre.”  Hummux also filmed my one-hour talk “Whom To Sue for MK-Ultra.”

You may recall I failed to run a mini-Marathon (for fear of heatstroke) but did make it to the memorial for the Pittsburgh synagogue shootings, which I suspect was a false flag.

Following on from the Fringe material, I revised my book Deliverance, incorporating material that Steve McMurray had provided about MK-Ultra in Australia.

I forget how that linked me to the Dunblane massacre of children but I was happy to publish “Toff’s Clinic.” I wish it would get coverage in Scotland.

In June, in Adelaide, I communicated with Rachel Vaughan, as I was interested in her remark that her father had the means of causing the disease scrapie.  I assumed she meant he used it for economic sabotage of sheep, but no. It was for humans.

As readers may recall, the Brett Kavanaugh business got me down, and the Jeff Sessions visit got me up – goes to show I cannot pick a winner!

In November at the polls I gave myself one write-in vote for State Board of Education in New Hampshire. OK, I have delusions of grandeur, so what.

We made a stink about the mistreatment in prison of Cabbie Matanov, Leonard Peltier, and Richard Taus. Those last two have been inside for more than a quarter century. Although I wrote about a Bill of Rights for Oz, what’s the point? America has such a bill and makes a mockery of it.

Recently, I penned a Covenant of Rights for Australia.

Contributors

Gumshoe was pleased to get more of Greg Buck’s short talks on the economy and Phil Hingston’s wisdom on banking. Phil’s Missus also wrote for us about the false flag truck rampage in Berlin. Gunther Russbacher came down from heaven to give us a piece on the making of a Manchurian Candidate.

Cheryl Dean expressed her righteous wrath about the separation of families at the Mexican border. Cathi Morgan let us use her material about Bath, UK.

G5 makes startling remarks. I tend to believe them but he cannot or will not reveal his inside sources. We are lucky to have such a person at Gumshoe.

Possibly the arrest of Patrick O’Dea and Dr Pridgeon – for helping children escape from abuse – was in fact caused by us. That is, the Pedo bosses have to do something to stem the flow of public awareness. And Amanda Gearing contributed some valuable articles on the Family Court.

I am deeply grateful to Dee McLachlan for giving me  platform for the last 4 years. I admire her intellectual steadiness and her genuine focus on “improving the situation.” Since the “Darlene” case popped up, Dee seems to have spent 18-hour days on these matters.

Dee’s Articles

Wait, I don’t see how Dee is going to get to review her 2018 articles other than the ones on Family Law, so here is a quick list of topics she covered:

Environment, artificial intelligence, censorship, Peter Dutton. Josh Frydenborg, Putin, Hillary, the Novichok affair, Brexit, Syria, tunnels in Adelaide, an odd train crash and a 17-passenger limo accident [Hello?], the Scott Morrison apology, vaccination, and many other issues.

Dee regularly covered the patheticness of the MSM, and at Easter time she dared to delve into the Crucifixion as a “cold case.”

Community at Gumshoe

I hereby acknowledge all our readers in the Comments section. “Eyeswideopen” furnished much info about the Family Law problems. Julius and Diane gave vital links. Deb gave me a hot tip.

Terry Shulze gave vital information about the courts and judges. Eddy is always in there when the subject of war comes up. Hotartglass39 hammers away at inequality. Berry is unique. Nedski sent wampum.

Thanks to those who have made my job fun. You know who you are! There is no question that our 20-or-so regular commenters at Gumshoe are a community.

Aren’t we all lucky!
