Expand base
It adds that during the first ninety days for his job position ratified the process of expanding the U.S. base controversial (in the Vicenza area) that were frozen because of the bureaucracy and the positions of the anti-American opposition.
But at the same time criticized the missile shield, and considered the expansion of NATO and support for Kosovo's independence as a provocation U.S. to Russia, and considered that the military intervention of Putin in Georgia in August / August 2008 is necessary to stop the bleeding resounding to civilians caused by Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili.
"
The Telegraph says that the personal relationship between Berlusconi and Putin and close cooperation between Eni and Gazprom place Italy probably in contrast with U.S. efforts to reduce Europe's dependence on Russian energy
"
It appears - according to The Telegraph - اعتدادا exaggerated esteem caused by his political popularity, which make it ignores dissenting opinion.
He met his uncompromising style of government administration with repeated verbal when he slipped and scandals leaning (including the exchange of accusations publicly with his wife, who accused him of treason).
All this to pay many, including officials in the American administration to be considered weak and trivial and ineffective to be a leader of European modern style.



Suspicious transactions
The telegram Dibble that the adoption of Italy on the energy coming from Russia and suspicious transactions and the winner between Russia and Italy as well as the personal relationship between Berlusconi and Putin distorted perceptions of the Prime Minister, and became believed that the dispute between the West and Russia caused by the United States and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).
The Telegraph adds that the personal relationship between Berlusconi and Putin and close cooperation between the Italian ENI oil giants Gazprom and Russian putting Italy on probably in contrast with U.S. efforts to reduce Europe's dependence on Russian energy.

Berlusconi, Gaddafi chose to be visited before coming to Washington (Reuters) -
The list goes on the saying in برقيتها work, the fact that Italy frustrating due to be excluded from the negotiations circle 5 +1 pays Berlusconi to promote that it can play the role of interlocutor between the West and Israel, Iran, claiming that it enjoys an excellent relationship with the three parties.
And about the relationship between Berlusconi, Libya, Dibble says that continued to develop its relationship with the purpose of stopping the flood of illegal immigration from its shores dry also gaining a foothold Advanced Italian companies, including Eni about Libya's oil reserves.
In the follow-up to the Treaty of Amity Italian-Libyan agreement signed in 2008, which has committed to Libya procedures more stringent to meet the clandestine immigration, the Berlusconi paid five billion dollars assistance to Tripoli, will the Libyan leader visited Rome between 10 and June 12 before visiting Berlusconi to Washington.


Eccentric
In summary, the Telegraph says existing business relationship between Italy and the United States supply the U.S. national security is much of interest, including those related to the tasks carried out behind the border, including what connection the promotion of our authority and achieve your agenda to impose law abroad. But the prime minister is the eccentric host.
Dibble says it may be a matter of dealing with the seductive Berlusconi as trivial, speaking and people is weak and sometimes issued provisions are difficult to predict, but we consider that it is wrong to do so. Despite his mistakes Berlusconi was the cornerstone of the Italian policies during the last 15 years, and all indications are that he will remain in his position another four years to come.

Journalism today 02/09/2013: Arab bidding on Obama's decision: let a war!


Syrian scene remained at the head of events that ran the world where the local headlines issued Monday morning 02/09/2013 after the decision of U.S. President Barack Obama to resort to the U.S. Congress to get approval to do limited military strikes to Damascus.
Ambassador

Lebanon's reservations, including Faisal incites and then back down .. And Azhar oppose aggression
Bidding on the Arab 'frequency' Obama: Let a war!

Wrote the ambassador says, "If Western capitals several, most notably by Washington and London, has kept freezing its war on Syria, under the pretext of consulting with their people, most of the Arab foreign ministers who met in Cairo, yesterday, seemed less national and nationalism, of the West itself.
Asked them Americans, linked deadline, which was scheduled for the military strike, and its maximum next Wednesday, to offer unto their meeting from Tuesday to Sunday, the hope of covering the Arab compensate for the lost and Washington due to what happened in the British House of Commons, is that the use of U.S. President Barack Obama to Congress , to get the cover to blow «may get tomorrow or next week or a month later, instead of the Arabic accounts.
Shock seemed clear visage and Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal, from the moment of arrival at Cairo airport. And bilateral alone showed that he held with his Egyptian counterpart Nabil Fahmy, that there is a need to adjust the point of the meeting. Egyptians advised Faisal b 'humility' and as sufficient, which was issued by the delegates meeting on 27 August last .. With very minor modifications. He held the Arab foreign ministers Syrian authorities responsible for the attack «chemical weapons» on Ghouta Damascus on August 21 last year, and called for «United Nations and the international community to carry out their responsibilities in accordance with the UN Charter and the norms of international law to take deterrent measures necessary against the perpetrators of this crime».
Seemed tone of the speakers is very low, with the exception Saud al-Faisal and President of the «coalition Syrian» Ahmed Jarba who deliberately named «Hezbollah» Iran (in another Arab meeting, he spoke Haitham al-Maleh in closed session and not in public as opposed to what happened in yesterday's session), while the rest of the Ministers of Foreign Affairs , was Nbernhm within the ceiling usual, while decided by the representatives of the State of Palestine and the Sultanate of Oman to adopt the language of silence, and in return, the higher the tone for each of the interceptor Lebanon, Iraq, Algeria and Egypt.
While the Lebanese Foreign Minister Adnan Mansour most daring inviting him to not pre-empt the international investigation, praying at the same time about the reason for the failure of the Arabs to send a team investigators for the same purpose, prior to issue rulings and hold the Syrian regime responsible for the use of chemical weapons, stressing the importance of a political solution to the Syrian crisis , called on Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari present at the closed session to adapt to the fact that a military strike, which was parked are deferred and probably will not get, advising not to urgency and therefore no decision covers a military strike is not guaranteed.
It was not the foreign ministers of Egypt and Algeria are far from the content of the intervention and the foreign ministers of Iraq, Lebanon, focusing on the priority of a political solution, while pointing to the attention of management retreat of the Secretary-General Nabil Elaraby 'keep up' for the new Egyptian position. The declining role of Qatar in the meetings of the Arab League, to below fashionable before «bulging» role of the country in a season «Arab Spring», to lead the Saudi role and turn into a «Dynamo» Session 140 of the Arab League, which approved the agenda the whole Arab in less than an hour, The Syrian issue accounted for four hours for a meeting in a state of emergency taking place in the Egyptian capital.
In sum, absent from the Arab meeting any reference to the issue of a military strike, so that the Algerian Delegate Minister addressed the Arabs by saying 'If the great powers, has decided to consult their people, is not self-evident to us as Arab countries to consult each other at least in our decisions rather than be boiled وغب demand?
It is worth mentioning that Lebanon is kept at full resolution while Iraq and Algeria reservation on item number 2 in the decision to hand load the Syrian regime fully responsible for the East Gouta massacre.
It seems that the Arab decision has become hostage to Saudi Arabia, which was Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal called, at a meeting of Arab foreign ministers in Cairo, to support the aggression against Syria. Although the Egyptian Foreign Minister Nabil Fahmy confirmed rejection of any aggression against Syria, but his country did not vote against the resolution.
A diplomatic source in Cairo «Ambassador» that «despite pressure Saudi Arabia to approve a military strike west, but Egypt and the General Secretariat of the Arab League Thompskta the content of the final statement of the meeting of permanent delegates, which was held last week, which condemns the Syrian regime without giving any approval blow west, along the lines of the previous approval of the Secretary-General Amr Moussa on the NATO intervention in Libya.
He held the Arab foreign ministers, in a decision after an emergency meeting in Cairo, «the Syrian regime fully responsible for this heinous crime» and called «United Nations and the international community to carry out their responsibilities in accordance with the UN Charter and the norms of international law to take deterrent measures necessary against the perpetrators of this crime, which bears the responsibilities Syrian regime, and to put an end to violations and crimes of genocide carried out by the Syrian regime two years ago.
And impounded Algeria paragraph contained in the resolution, and to call upon the United Nations and the international community to assume their responsibilities and take deterrent measures necessary against the perpetrators of this crime, and called to wait for the final results of a team of United Nations inspectors on chemical weapons, while not vote for Iraq to the paragraph relating to download the Syrian regime is responsible for This crime, as well as invite the United Nations to take deterrent measures against Syria. And kept Lebanon on the overall decision.
Faisal was called, during a meeting of Arab foreign ministers, to take 'decisive action' to support a military strike against Syria. He said that «any opposition to any international action can only serve as an encouragement for the Damascus regime to move forward in his crimes», adding that «it is time to ask the international community to assume its responsibility and take deterrent action against the Syrian authorities.
He said that the Syrian people 'when he sensed the inability of Arab states to respond to Astagathath of repeated forced SOS to the international community. He said «no longer acceptable to say that any international intervention is an interference in the internal affairs of Syria, Damascus regime is the one who opened the door to enter the Iranian Guard troops and Hezbollah forces even Syria has been on the ground must be said that it is occupied.
The Al-Azhar issued a statement in which it announced the rejection of the decision of U.S. President Barack Obama's military strike against Syria, warning that «it is an assault and a threat to the Arab and Islamic nation, and the defiance of the international community, and displays of international peace and security at risk.
Obama and Kerry
The Arab decision comes hours after U.S. President Barack Obama, that he would ask Congress to authorize the use of force against Syria, a move that surprised many, both in the United States itself, or some Syrian opposition forces, in addition to Israel.
He said that while Obama has the power to make a decision directing a military strike, without reference to Congress, the United States 'will be stronger' If Congress resorted to.
It was not clear exactly the purpose behind throw Obama ball in the court of Congress, which will not meet before September 9, present, and whether the step-American president trying to win cap unconstitutional move unlikely, or it represents a maneuver to undo his decision if Congress rejected a strike, as happened a few days ago in British Parliament, which rejected the decision of Prime Minister David Cameron to target Syria, or waiting for the reaction of the French Parliament, which meets next Wednesday, although French President Francois Hollande confirmed his country's readiness to launch aggression without a resolution of the Parliament.
Obama may also aimed at absorbing the wrath of Russian President Vladimir Putin, who is hosting next Thursday, a meeting of leaders of the Group of Twenty.
The administration began to make great efforts to commercialize blow to the American public. The Minister of Foreign Affairs John Kerry to political programs in five major U.S. television channels, declaring for the first time that the samples were received and analyzed by the United States «to prove the use of sarin gas in the August 21 attack near Damascus» in East Gouta.
In Damascus, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, during a meeting with Chairman of the Committee on National Security and Foreign Affairs of the Shura Council (parliament) Iranian Alaeddin Boroujerdi, that «Syria is able to face any external aggression», in what was considered Boroujerdi that «the nature of security issues in the region are interrelated fully from the security aspect, and Americans should expect threats to their interests while they threaten the interests of the countries of the region.

America's new axis of resistance of the delegates (with the knowledge of Russia): Any rocket opens the gate of hell

Ibrahim Secretary
Wrote the News says, "is not expected from one of the« free world »that say about the frequency U.S. only that« as a result of democracy ». Will not stop analyzes and debates about« effects of public opinion in Europe and America and «free world» on the decision-makers. Thus, they want us to accept an initial defeat for America and Europe in a war without bullets in the face of the axis of resistance and its Russian ally what happened, and what will happen?
Minutes after the exit of U.S. President Barack Obama announcing that he wants to implement «limited military strike against Syria, but wait 'approval of Congress', breathable and military security of the very high leadership positions in the West, a sigh of relief. Noticed that the creators of the White House to avoid their boss that he is compelled to retreat two steps back, and that he can refuse to help the Russian and the other party, and go around Congress, which would give him peace that suits him down from the tree.
But these, do not care about all that is contained in the reports of diplomatic authorities, nor in the telegrams and international media agencies. They know that they lived through three days of the worst moments since the collapse of the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact.
Before the time is short on intelligence operation carried out by the men of Israel and Saudi Arabia, which has seen the use of chemical weapons in East Gouta, the Americans, with Europe, discussing the Russians and the Iranians in the political settlement of the crisis, from اقرارهم project's failure to bring down the regime by force. But they were asking for one thing: keep Bashar al-Assad. Promotions reached by them to the borders of the Russian Mpazrh that Assad himself chooses a successor to take over the leadership of the team that represented, and engaged in this person the next presidential election.
Russians discussed the matter from different angles, and conducted extensive consultations with the Iranian leadership, and they came back and told Westerners that there is no room for any research in this matter. Then they heard of Westerners that this answer means prolonging the conflict, and to raise the ceiling support for armed groups to open borders armories quality, and the flow of money and set up a special training camps. Then he took «Saudi boy» proudly expression for main and assigned this task. And began the task of reorganizing the battalions fighting in the ranks of the opposition, including, in particular, the availability of coverage for serious communication channel and practical between Bandar men and between al-Qaeda («victory» and «Islamic state in Iraq and the Levant).
The goal was to provide readiness to enable the direct blow to the regime in Damascus, in the regions of the north and the south, and begin the process of a bloody escalation against Hezbollah in Lebanon, and the intensify operations temptation to officers in the Syrian army for the split.
But the axis contrast, did not know about it, but he had his security and military plans to protect the achievements of the Syrian army in cooperation with Hezbollah in more than one area of ​​Syria. To start a plan to expand the circle safety net private capital, Damascus, and some areas of the center and the coast. Which yielded several operations, culminating in the decision «capital Shield», which was launched on the twentieth of last August in all rural areas of the southern and eastern Damascus.
When the other party knew about it, and after the failure of 'incomprehensible' for opponents in the countryside of Latakia, they found that there is no room for a qualitative change except through recourse to elements outside of those on the ground. The recipe, that adequate justification is provided for a broad international campaign culminating in a military operation against the regime in Syria. Israeli intelligence and worked to support the 'Bandar men' in Syria to implement «chemical Massacre» in Gouta. In less than an hour, set off a media machine then political and diplomatic, to prepare the ground for the lift outside military intervention in Syria, through the process launched by the United States with the participation of European countries in addition to Turkey and Arab countries.
When approved by the Americans, who started from the data stating that the grip on the world allows them collect Alaosman even before starting work. And began to talk about 'military strike' longer, even zap delegates to Tehran and Moscow. The message was limited: came waiver political now, or سنأخذه you after a تنهك kick the Assad regime.
In the first round of negotiations, the Americans were surprised coldly Russian banner. An Iranian words impressively, though a faint voice. But the essence of the two positions, that Russia and Iran does not تجدان to no reason يدفعهما to make concessions in the Syrian file. It coincided with President Assad informed all his allies that he is not ready for any compromise, and he decided to confrontation.
In the second round, lifting the Americans from the roof of the hype. They started sending military build-up, and the launch of a wider process to move the Navy, and air bases in surrounding countries, Syria. This coincided with the psychological pressure machine activation through intelligence and the media and all the diplomatic device. The Americans told Russia and Iran, said the decision a serious military operation, not only to dramatize.
Once again, the answer came more frustrating for the American side. The Russians said they did not believe that a military operation could be useful to change the facts, and warned Americans of that aggression will turn the table over everyone's head. As for Iran, refused the principle of debate in what he called the West «punish Assad and disciplined. Tehran has told the mediators and delegates, that any aggression against Syria means opening a large-scale battle and theaters.
While the Americans, with Europe and the countries of the region are working to revitalize the military machine, Israel resorted to the level of alert defensive - offensive, so as to keep pace with aggression, either harvest, or post in the event expansion patch of confrontation. But Tel Aviv were less worried about the possibility of confrontation, because the Americans said they had been told Russia and Iran that the military operation aimed at changing the balance to go with new data to the negotiations.
During the past four days, raising the west of the pace of standby. The leaked all the necessary data by the Bank of goals, and process boundaries and armed groups willing to broad attack plan accompany U.S. aggression. At this moment, popped to the surface, and in the previous banner, operations room political, diplomatic, military and security, stretching from Moscow to Tehran, Damascus and the southern suburbs of Beirut. It was clear for everyone that the Western operation designed to overthrow the regime or facilitate the veto, and in both cases, represent the most prominent warning, which means that on this axis to work vigorously to prevent achieve his goal aggression.
Based on this trend, it was decided to declare general alert. Russia gave orders to Askarha the existing off the Syrian coast to prepare for a serious confrontation. Iran announced a general alert to its naval and missile and Slaj air. Syrian army active teams that do not participate in the clashes on the ground. And set up and Hezbollah operations room field consisted in the development of missile power on the different in the case of readiness is unprecedented, and coincided with an invitation of the Islamic Resistance all cadres and its members to join their positions, and was most prominent in all that has happened, activating the missile power in the region.
With the completion of uptime, about the urgency of the U.S. to implement the strike, even nominally, forced axis of resistance and the knowledge of Russia, to «show some stuff on the ground and in the sea, and in more than a sensitive area for Americans», then attach the message to the Americans and their allies a clear and concise: We do not have The so-called limited or symbolic blow or formality, Wi-missile crosses the Syrian airspace, means the start of a wider-scale war, in which a high level of readiness even to degrees of insanity.
Everyone was to contain the situation. In Europe, there is a house expertise Atiq, now named Britain, where he was the antidote to the Government of David Cameron of the House of Commons, which is easy to him out of the impasse, it inflicted in the case of weakness over his ally the U.S., that the left insists on aggression and defending him, but he كبله way that prevents of adventure.
With the acceleration of a snowball hesitant and fearful of rolling things as no dire consequences, the American administration had to find a real-time filmmaker, any urgent decision to postpone the strike until they can be to discuss the data in a different way and make the final decision. Each time find «the free world» حيلته, and this time woke up to «the importance of listening to public opinion. This public opinion, which did not oppose all the madness in the past three decades.
Within a few minutes, the President of the United States was forced to show some humility curious about his administration, and the announcement of the inability to move unilaterally to decide the fate of the world, and throw the ball in the court of everyone around him.
Today, operational clarify the meaning of the idea of ​​devoted ten years ago at least, which says that «America is capable but not quite. Today, opening the door for a new global equilibrium. It is true that it is necessary to monitor the impact on the Syrian crisis directly, but it is also true is the existence of monitoring the impact of the scandal on the mechanisms of world leadership.
As for Obama, who gave himself a vacation for hours or days or weeks, no longer have the luxury of maneuver: either back down and go toward a settlement, either adventure and enter into a war extensive and comprehensive can not claim in its ability to control their own destiny.
In another scene, pictures of boys the United States in our country. Such as traitors Arab group, who were dismissed yesterday a new invoice for the donor money black, advertisers from Cairo, covering the aggression. While Azhar announce a short distance, that hit Syria represents an aggression on the Arab and Islamic nations.
At the bottom of the picture, standing reckless, hypocritical, hateful, depraved, in the face of fate. Represents looters of the Arabian Peninsula who want to push things towards all-out war, but their deaths they will witness a new chapter in the face of the Arab right. "

Kerry went on several television channels yesterday morning to drum up support to launch U.S. military strikes against Syria after President Barack Obama called on Congress to vote on the authorization to launch such a strike.
Kerry called on Congress to give Obama the green light to launch such attacks on the regime of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. He told the network, "NBC's" that he believed that Congress will approve the request of President Obama.
He said, "I do not think that the U.S. Congress would give up this moment, I think that Congress would approve."
"I do not think that my former colleagues in the Senate and House of Representatives in the United States will manage the backs of all our interests and the credibility of our country, and norms concerning the application of the ban on the use of chemical weapons in place since 1925."
He said, "Congress adopted the Charter of the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, and approved the Syria Accountability Act., Congress has the responsibility in this case as well."
The White House formally sent to Congress a draft resolution requesting that allow military strikes against Syria and President Barack Obama to give the green light for "stop" and "avoid" for chemical attacks.
The draft resolution states that the Congress will support "sends a clear message about America's firm position" on this issue.
In Tehran, was quoted by the Iranian news agency, former Iranian President Hashemi Rafsanjani as saying that the Syrian government attacked its own people with chemical weapons, but later replaced the news report containing a different version of the statements devoid of any party accountable for the attack.
The new report quoted Iranian workers told Rafsanjani as saying yesterday, "on the one hand the people of Syria is being attacked with chemical weapons and now it must also wait for an attack at the hands of foreigners."
The agency was quoted in the first version of the remarks quoted Rafsanjani as saying "the people were the target of an attack with chemical weapons on his hands and now it must also wait for an attack at the hands of foreigners."
This version differs from the remarks strongly with statements by other Iranian officials who say that the opposition forces are responsible for the use of poison gas in an attack on the outskirts of Damascus on August 21.
The agency did not change other statements carried by for Rafsanjani them "now almost America and the Western world and some Arab countries launched the war in Syria horn ... O child of the Syrian people." He went on to say "the Syrian people have suffered a lot in these two years Prisons are overcrowded and turning stadiums into prisons and reveals the deaths of more than one hundred thousand people and the displacement of millions for its plight Syria more than ever."

FBI investigating possible courthouse cover-ups

FBI investigating possible courthouse cover-ups

FBI agents quietly have interviewed current and former courthouse employees in a stepped-up investigation into allegations of excessive force by Family Court marshals and possible cover-ups of their actions.
The investigation, which has been ongoing for weeks, has created a stir within courthouse circles because of the possibility it could lead to court administrators accused of turning a deaf ear to some brutality allegations.
Family Court, a division of Clark County District Court, has 20 judges who oversee a variety of domestic issues, including divorces and child custody and abuse cases.
Allegations have surfaced that administrators in both courts who developed personal relationships with Family Court marshals allowed a variety of misconduct, including excessive use of force, to continue with little or no punishment.
“This has been an ongoing pattern of conduct, and it has gotten worse in the last couple of years,” said one courthouse employee interviewed by agents.
A former courthouse employee said the agents were looking for evidence of court officials failing to take action following internal investigations of marshals. The agents were asking about the roles within the courts of District Court Executive Steve Grierson, some of his top administrators and his legal counsel.
More than a half-dozen marshals, including internal affairs investigators, are among those FBI agents have interviewed over several weeks.
Some Family Court marshals already have testified before a federal grand jury reviewing allegations their former supervisor, Steve Rushfield, choked a woman in May 2010 while she was restrained in a holding cell. The woman, Crystal Williams, has also testified.
Agents recently carted boxes of files from the Regional Justice Center office of Ed May, the human resources manager for District Court. Agents subpoenaed records from internal investigations of Family Court marshals over several years.
District Court spokeswoman Mary Ann Price said court officials have co­operated with FBI agents.
“Court administration had advised the FBI of investigative files that upon subpoena would be provided,” she said.
One of those interviewed at length by agents was George Glasper, the former supervisor of District Court marshals, who was fired in March 2011 after he fell out of favor with Grierson.
Glasper, who may have knowledge of possible administrative mishandling of internal investigations of Family Court marshals, in August filed a wrongful termination lawsuit in federal court. He earlier filed a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, which gave him the green light to sue.
Just why Glasper was fired from his lieutenant’s position at the Regional Justice Center is unclear. Neither Glasper nor court officials would comment.
Glasper is known to have had some personal problems at the time. But in his lawsuit against District Court, he alleges he was the subject of racial discrimination - he is African-American - by Grierson, his direct supervisor.
Grierson is not named as a defendant in the lawsuit, but in court papers Glasper and his lawyer, Kirk Kennedy, blame him for Glasper’s firing. They have the option of amending the lawsuit to include Grierson as a defendant.
They allege Glasper “endured various forms of discriminatory conduct based on his race from his supervisor.” The conduct included, “unfair criticisms” and “negative evaluations and reviews,” as well as “unequal treatment compared to employees of other races.”
Glasper was denied “various workplace rights and protections” and was forced to submit to “retaliatory conduct” against him, which created an “overall pervasive hostile work environment,” the lawsuit alleges.
Grierson issued a statement saying that because of the pending litigation he could not comment on Glasper’s specific claims.
“Integrity, honesty, and the public’s confidence in our marshal division are critical to the court, and I’m confident that after the facts of this case are revealed, it will become clear that termination was warranted,” Grierson said.
According to marshals familiar with Glasper and Rushfield, whom Grierson promoted to lieutenant over Family Court marshals, the two men did not have a good relationship and once had a blow-up in front of Grierson.
Glasper is said to have infuriated Grierson when he talked to a Las Vegas police detective investigating the May 20, 2010, choking incident involving Rushfield.
Williams, 27, was at a Family Court hearing in 2010 to support a friend. After a confrontation with marshals outside the courtroom, she was detained and strapped into a chair in the holding cell.
In an interview with the Review-Journal in March, a marshal who said he witnessed the incident described Williams as combative and screaming. The marshal, who asked not to be identified, said Rushfield grabbed her by the throat with one hand, shoved her head back and said, “You’re in my house, (expletive). Shut the (expletive) up.”
Rushfield summoned all of the witnesses to the back of the courthouse to “get the story straight” in anticipation of an internal investigation, the marshal said.
When Glasper went to Grierson with concerns that Rushfield might be retaliating against the marshals who witnessed the choking incident, he was told to stay out of the matter, according to current and former courthouse employees.
Complaints about other misconduct by Rushfield and Family Court marshals Glasper had brought to Grierson were said to have been brushed aside.
In early 2011, Las Vegas police dropped their investigation of the choking incident and decided the matter was best left for administrative action by the court. Retired FBI Agent Bob Bennett, the court’s security director, later recommended firing Rushfield, but two years passed with no action by Grierson.
Three weeks after publication of a Review-Journal story on the incident, Rushfield gave up his lieutenant’s rank, becoming a regular courtroom marshal for Family Court Judge Frank Sullivan.
Rushfield was never put on administrative leave after the allegations surfaced, according to marshals interviewed by the Review-Journal.
In contrast, after allegations surfaced about Glasper, he was put on leave within 24 hours, the marshals said.
Rushfield also has been accused of trying to cover up allegations that another marshal groped Monica Contreras, 28, who was in Family Court on Aug. 8, 2011, for a hearing related to her divorce. The FBI is interested in this case.
In a courtroom incident captured on videotape, Contreras complained to Hearing Master Patricia Doninger that Marshal Ron Fox assaulted her in a witness room under the guise of searching her for drugs.
Doninger appeared to ignore Contreras’ pleas, which prompted a marshal to arrest her on misdemeanor charges of providing false information to a police officer and disturbing the peace. She later pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor disorderly conduct charge. The disturbing the peace charge was dismissed.
This year, Contreras and her lawyer, Ross Goodman, filed a federal lawsuit alleging court officials violated her civil rights.
Fox was fired after an internal investigation, and Doninger was let go amid the publicity of the incident.
Earlier this month, the Review-Journal disclosed two more allegations of excessive force likely to attract the attention of FBI agents.
In one case, former Henderson resident Peter Peterson alleges a marshal assaulted him after he passed through the metal detectors in Family Court on Feb. 27, 2012.
Peterson, 42, who now lives in Oklahoma City, claims the marshal, Brent Johnson, threw him headfirst to the concrete floor, causing him to suffer serious facial fractures, head contusions and spinal injuries.
Two days after that altercation, which was captured on security video, a federal judge dismissed a similar case alleging brutality involving Johnson after both sides reached an undisclosed settlement.
In that confrontation, which occurred on Nov. 21, 2007, William Beaver accused Johnson of punching him and tackling him to the ground outside the main Family Court entrance, giving him a concussion and a hernia and aggravating his back problems. Beaver, who was 66 at the time, now lives in Oregon.
In both incidents involving Johnson, witnesses said the marshal was the aggressor.
