TO SCOTT PICKWITH, CHIEF, LA VERNE POLICE DEPARTMENT;

Department;

Time is of the essence, response kindly requested today, Wednesday, February 17, 2010.

RE: Arrest Warrant under #8BR0429801: Request for affirmation of integrity of related records
and operations of the La Verne Police Department

Dear Chief Pickwith:

I again write to request that you affirm integrity of records and operations of the La Verne Police
Department:

1) Warrant for Arrest of Joseph Zernik under #8BR0429801, requiring bail of $5,000
On February 6, 2010, Joseph Zernik was stopped by Officer McKindley, ID #720, of the La Verne
Police Department, who arrested him stating that a warrant for such arrest existed by the Burbank
Court. When Officer McKindley was asked to allow inspection of such warrant, he printed a paper from
the La Verne Police Department computer system, but displayed it only from a distance. When Officer
McKindley was asked to provide a copy of the warrant - the request was denied. Officer McKindley
also informed Dr Zernik that a bail of $5,000 was required for release from arrest pursuant to such
warrant by the La Verne Police Department.

2) Notice to Appear, by the East District Pomona Court, L254423


Later, Officer McKinley also issued a record titled: Notice to Appear, by the East District Pomona Court,
L254423, where Warrant #8BR0429801 was again listed. In such notice to appear the courts which
were printed on the form were crossed out. Instead, the non-existent "Burbank Municipal Court" was
inscribed by hand as the place of the required appearance, with date of appearance of February 19,
2010.

3) LA Sheriff's Department, Inmate Information Center, record of Joseph Zernik, downloaded on


February 7, 2010.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, in its online Inmate Information Center, likewise listed
case #8BR0429801 under the non-existent Burbank Municipal Court. However, the bail of $5,000 was
never demanded for the release of Joseph Zernik, and such bail was never listed in the Sheriff's
records.

4) Responses of Record Supervisor Ruth Mahlow upon request to access public record, which
was the warrant for the arrest of Joseph Zernik under #8BR0429801, which was claimed to have
 Page 2/2 February 17, 2010

been executed on or about February 6, 2010.


Requests to access the executed arrest warrant under #8BR0429801, a public record by California
Public Records Act were repeatedly denied. In email note on Tue, 9 Feb 2010, 14:01:06, La Verne
Police Department Records Supervisor Ruth Mahlow provided the reason for such denial of access as
follows:

The warrant print outs are included as part of the officers report and are not separate entities. You will
not be getting copies of the warrants.
Implied in such response by Records Supervisor was: (a) That a "separate entity" which was an honest
valid and effectual warrant for arrest of Joseph Zernik, under #8BR0429801, indeed existed prior to the
arrest of February 6, 2010, and (b) That a "separate entity" which was an honest valid and effectual
warrant for arrest of Joseph Zernik, under #8BR0429801, was indeed executed by Officer McKindley
on or about February 6, 2010, and (c) That warrant for arrest of Joseph Zernik, under #8BR0429801,
was later incorporated into the report of Officer McKindley, and therefore, no longer existed as a
"separate entity", which was an honest, valid, and effectual warrant for arrest of Joseph Zernik.

I therefore write to request your affirmation of the following, pertaining to integrity of records and
operations of the La Verne Police Department. In the following requests, the term "honest" is used in
the sense of "devoid of fraud and deception":

1) An honest valid and effectual Warrant for Arrest of Joseph Zernik under #8BR0429801, requiring
bail of $5,000, existed as a separate entity at the time of the arrest of Joseph Zernik on February 6,
2010.

2) Notice to Appear, issued by Officer McKindley on a form of the East District Pomona Court,
L254423, where the court names printed on the form were crossed out, and the non-existent Burbank
Municipal Court was instead inscribed by hand as the place of required appearance, was an honest,
valid and effectual record of the La Verne Police Department.

3) An honest, valid, and effectual Warrant for Arrest of Joseph Zernik under #8BR0429801, requiring
bail of $5,000, was executed on about February 6, 2010 by Officer McKindley of the La Verne Police
Department, as stated by him at the time of the arrest and booking.

4) Warrant for Arrest of Joseph Zernik under #8BR0429801, requiring bail of $5,000, no longer existed
as an honest, valid, and effectual "separate entity" by the time Records Supervisor of La Verne Police
Department Ruth Mahlow provided her email response of Tue, 9 Feb 2010 14:01:06, stating: The
warrant print outs are included as part of the officers report and are not separate entities.

Time is of the essence, given that one of the records listed above, whose integrity your are requested
to affirm, is a Notice to Appear pertaining to appearance on February 19, 2010. Your timely response is
therefore kindly requested today, February 17, 2010.

Respectfully,

Dated: February 17, 2010
