Of Heroes III
Dear Mr. Hopkins,
I’m sure that you’ve heard of the case of Judge Christian Dettmar and I can’t help but feel that today, the eleventh of September, the fiftieth anniversary of the abominable coup in Chile and the anniversary of the equally abominable Deep State coup in America, is a fitting day to write about it.
What we’re witnessing, and what you’re directly experiencing, is beyond a shadow of a doubt, a Deep State event.
Paul Craig Roberts recently wrote: “Just the other day Germany convicted one of the country’s own judges for listening to the expert evidence and ruling against the government’s mask mandate. In other words, evidence that contradicts the narrative has been criminalized by the German judicial system.”
He pointed out that this was part of a larger pattern: “Just as the message has been made clear to Germany’s judges that judges who dispense actual justice will be imprisoned, the message has been made clear to scientists, experts, medical doctors, and independent journalists that if they tell the truth their careers and lives will be ruined.”[1]
This is, in a nutshell, what your case is all about. Your life is to be “ruined” to frighten others. In other words: what we’re witnessing is a wave of terror reminiscent of France in the 1790s or Soviet Russia in the 1930s but of demonic, global, proportions.
Bryan S. Jung characterized the case so: “In 2021, Judge Christian Dettmar struck down a local government ordinance that required schoolchildren to wear masks in the German state of Thuringia. The case made headlines across Germany.”
“Judge Dettmar is now set to lose his legal career and pension and receive a two-year suspended prison sentence for allegedly “perverting the law.””
“During the pandemic-era lockdowns, the Thuringian state government ruled that all children were to wear masks while at school, stay a minimum distance from each other, and take virus tests.”
“The judge ruled that masks shouldn’t be mandatory for children at two schools in Weimar, Thuringia, after the mother of two children, aged 8 and 14, complained that the masks were giving them insomnia, nausea, and headaches.”
‘I Saw Danger in Delay’
“Judge Dettmar told the schools in Weimar that they could no longer enforce the order, as the mandates weren’t compatible with the welfare of the children involved.”
“His decision immediately sparked outrage in the state government, which called for his punishment and removal.”
“The judge’s ruling was overturned by the Higher Regional Court in Erfurt, following a complaint by the state’s education department, which forced students to once again wear masks in schools.”
“The district court in Erfurt stated that only an administrative court held the jurisdiction to make such a ruling and that Judge Dettmar’s decision didn’t fall under the scope of his court.
“The good cause of protecting children, which they may have had in the back of their minds, does not justify the way,” the district court judge said in his ruling.”
“Judge Dettmar defended his decision on the matter, arguing that he had merely consulted certified university experts.”[2]
An article[3] in the TAZ is of a different opinion:
„Im Mai 2022 wurde gegen den Familienrichter Anklage wegen des Verdachts der politisch motivierten Rechtsbeugung erhoben.“
„In May 2022, charges were brought against the family judge on suspicion of politically motivated perversion of justice.”
It attacked his person:
„Unter den Kollegen des kleinen Amtsgerichts galt Christian Dettmar als verschrobener Einzelgänger.“
„Among his colleagues at the small district court, Christian Dettmar was considered a cranky loner.“
And termed him a
„Ein juristischer Querdenker.“
“A legal lateral thinker.”
In other words, the reader was immediately alerted to the fact that he could, oh horror of horrors, be linked in some way to Michael Ballweg (about whom I wrote last time) and, even worse, oh horror of horrors, that the judge was capable of THINKING FOR HIMSELF!!! How shocking! How could something like that be possible, in Germany of all places, where conformity is sacred?!
One sees clearly how, exactly, the hit piece against the judge works.
One sentence of the article begins with the words „Verdacht auf Rechtsbeugung“ “suspicion of perversion of justice”
And switches quickly to
„die Biegung des Rechts war mutmaßlich politisch motiviert“
“The bending of the law was presumably politically motivated”
Was this an error on the part of the author, was a political motivation in play or was the editor pressured into such a change? Or was the journalist simply incapable of using the conjunctive when they should have? Or perhaps the word “suspicion” was dropped for the sake of elegance? Why repeat oneself?
A severe, harsh judgement of Dettmar is quickly formed in the reader’s mind:
„Dettmar sei „hinreichend verdächtig“, das Vertrauen des Dienstherren und der Allgemeinheit in seine Amtsführung „unheilbar zerstört“ zu haben.“
“Dettmar is “sufficiently suspected” of having “incurably destroyed” the trust of his employer and the general public in his administration.”
How appalling!
“Das Dienstgericht stützt sich auf drei Begründungen: die „überwiegende Wahrscheinlichkeit“, dass Dettmar aufgrund der bisherigen Ermittlungsergebnisse verurteilt wird, die rechtliche Kritik an seinem Antimaskenbeschluss und den Vorwurf, die ihm übertragene Rechtsprechung missbraucht zu haben, „um die staatlichen Maßnahmen zur Bekämpfung der Coronapandemie auszuhebeln“ und dabei die richterliche Unabhängigkeit zur Durchsetzung eigener Zwecke ausgenutzt zu haben.”
“The court relies on three justifications: the “predominant probability” that Dettmar will be convicted based on the results of the investigation so far, the legal criticism of his anti-mask decision and the accusation that he misused his jurisdiction to “override” government measures to combat the corona pandemic and to have exploited judicial independence to enforce his own purposes.”
The tenor of this woolly-minded, muddled article, about which I shall no longer bore you, is the following:
Christian Dettmar overstepped his juristic competence to a certain extent (something his defenders concede) and, more importantly, he did so because he was “politically motivated” and “conspired” with others who were also “politically motivated”. Indeed, a large number of people were terrorized by the police in order to drag up evidence to support this dubious, spurious and irrational conspiracy theory.
Yet neither the article nor the official accusations touch the core of the matter: the fact that masks are known (and scientifically proven) to be injurious to one’s health (and incapable of protecting one from much of anything). This is where the cover of your book, which is the cause of your trial, comes in. What is behind the mask is a political agenda not a medical or public health necessity. And this is why your cover aroused so much fury: the political agenda is fundamentally one of Fascism in its purest form. This truth the powers that be, most certainly don’t want to either hear or see.
A more detailed, more thorough account[4], points out:
„Schließlich fällt auf, dass die Anklage inhaltlichen Fragen strikt aus dem Weg geht. Richter Dettmar wird angeklagt wegen eines Beschlusses, in dem Corona-Maßnahmen in der Schule als kindeswohlgefährdend bewertet wurden, die Corona-Maßnahmen sollen aber nicht thematisiert werden. Ob die Maskenpflicht und die anderen Maßnahmen in den Schulen wirksam und die Maßnahmen im Hinblick auf das Kindeswohl unbedenklich waren oder nicht – um nur zwei Fragen von vielen zu nennen – das alles soll im Verfahren keine Rolle spielen.“
“…it is noticeable that the prosecution strictly avoids substantive questions. Judge Dettmar is being charged with a decision in which corona measures at school are considered as harmful to children, but the corona measures themselves aren’t discussed. Whether the mask requirement and the other measures in the schools were effective or harmful…– to name just two questions out of many – none of this shall play a role in the case.”
The article concludes:
„Die Analyse hat gezeigt, dass der Rechtsbeugungsvorwurf der Staatsanwaltschaft gegen Richter Dettmar einer eingehenden rechtlichen Prüfung nicht standhalten kann. Die Staatsanwaltschaft…hat dabei im Ermittlungsverfahren einen beachtlichen Aufwand betrieben: Nicht nur bei Richter Dettmar, sondern auch bei den drei Sachverständigen und bei fünf Zeugen wurden Wohnungen und Diensträume durchsucht. Anschließend erfolgte eine monatelange Auswertung der sichergestellten Laptops und Telefone durch die Polizei…“
“The analysis has shown that the public prosecutor’s accusation of perverting the course of justice against Judge Dettmar cannot stand up to detailed legal scrutiny. The public prosecutor’s office…put a considerable amount of effort into the investigation: Not only Judge Dettmar’s apartments and offices were searched, but also the three experts and five witnesses. The seized laptops and phones were then evaluated by the police over a period of months…” without any results…
It adds:
„Dieses Strafverfahren ist ein politisches Verfahren…“
“This criminal procedure is a political procedure…”
The same can very obviously said about your case.
Best,
Michael
