Dear
Lt. Baggett,
This
is my response to your last email with your statements from your last email
in blue.
Mr.
Walker,
I
am aware that Capt. Lacey informed you that the matter of the validity
of the evidence in your case was ruled on at the time of your trial, and
by the outcome of that trial it appears that the evidence was accepted
by the court as not being corrupted or tampered with. Did your attorney
raise the issue of corrupted evidence during the trial? I am also
aware that Capt. Lacey informed you that if you have an accusation of corruption
against a deputy to bring that allegation to me. If you have evidence of
corruption on the part of any Cherokee County Sheriffs Office employee
I would like to see it. Please telephone my office and make an appointment
for us to meet and review this evidence. My office number is 678 493 4112.
Lt.
T.J. Baggett

Lt.
Baggett,
Capt.
Lacey did not inform me that the matter of the validity of
the evidence in my case was ruled on at the time of my trial, and if he
did he would be wrong.There was
no direct ruling or final ruling about this at my trial, and there were
never any hearings dealing with it. I
never heard anything else about this since this trial ended on Nov. 19,
2002 with my attorney becoming a witness.
You
are also incorrect to assume that the evidence was accepted by the court
as not being corrupted or tampered with.In
fact Judge Sumner alluded to some hearings on the "chain of command" and
some other hearings, but he drifted away from this premise and did not
consider the reality of the seriousness of this evidence being altered.I
know that Judge Sumner treated me fair at the "Stalking TPO" Hearing that
was filed by this same woman and he made the right decision to dismiss
the same and he even alluded to the fact that he thought I might be innocent.
Common
sense should probably tell me that, in this "Trial" setting, the judge
was just trying to cover for someone for the fact that the crime of Felony
Tampering with Evidence had been committed, as well as other rights of
mine violated throughout this case by the former Detective Peavy and others.In
fact my rights were violated from the beginning when Peavy did not interview
the only witness at the scene before my arrest, and, more importantly,
he did not take into consideration this evidence as I attempted to point
it out to him when he collected this evidence.The
fact that this woman filed a report some four days later, counting the
day of the incident, should have at least prompted a "Probable Cause Hearing",
but not if Peavy had anything to do with it.-BUT-From what I've seen of
Judge Sumner, and the fact that he seemed to try to treat me fair before
and to attempt to consider my rights, I must also consider the fact that
Judge Sumner may simply not have known anything about crossbows and therefore
would not know the simple fact that this evidence would be definitive in
proving my innocence.
Capt.
Lacey, I am a Champion in Archery, and I was saluted by the City of Atlanta
as an outstanding Champion 41 years ago, when I was just 10 years old.I
have shot archery all of my life.I
am a Life Scout and earned twenty-two Merritt Badges and the Order of the
Arrow.I made sure that it would
be legal for me to continue to target shoot with bows after my probation
period was over for my drug conviction from a plea bargain in 1988.I
bought this crossbow for my stepson and we wore out one target shooting
this crossbow and my other bows and had to buy a new target.After
my separation and subsequent divorce I never shot this crossbow again,
and that was for well over 2 ½ years before this alleged incident.When
shooting a crossbow you occasionally wax the shaft to protect the string
from the pressure of it on the shaft and this thin layer of wax will accumulate
dust over time.I can assure you
that the accumulation of dust on the shaft of this crossbow was critical evidence in proving that it was not cocked, and therefore not
loaded at the time of this alleged incident, and an "expert" witness will
tell you that because he saw it.Mr.
Rusbrige also witnesses this fact at the same time as this "expert" witness
did.This thick layer of dust, and
we're talking about some 1/8" thick layer of dust on the shaft of this
crossbow, would have simply been cleaned off by the pressure of the string
against the shaft as it was pulled back into the cocked position.This
evidence, in of itself, would have added absolute evidence to the mountain
of proof that already exist that this woman's allegations are false.
"Did
your attorney raise the issue of corrupted evidence during the trial?"
Yes.Mr.
Rusbridge did a good job of raising this issue and asked that this indictment
be dismissed against me because of this fact.Why
Judge Sumner did not dismiss it is a mystery to me, other than the fact,
as I have mentioned, that he may not have understood the finality of this
evidence in its proof, or he considered it as evidence that would be considered
at trial, or he was doing his best to cover for someone's behind for the
crime of Felony Tampering with Evidence.I
will send you a dissertation on this from my trial in another email.It
would be important for you, obviously, to get a copy of the transcript
from this "Trail" on November 19,2002 and read it.Just
be aware that this has been erroneously alluded to and labeled as a "Hearing,"
but it was a "Trial," and can assure you that you don't have a jury pool
and you don't pick a jury for a "Hearing."
"I
am also aware that Capt. Lacey informed you that if you have an accusation
of corruption against a deputy to bring that allegation to me. If you have
evidence of corruption on the part of any Cherokee County Sheriffs Office
employee I would like to see it. Please telephone my office and make an
appointment for us to meet and review this evidence."
I
will probably call you and set up and appointment, but I have an attorney
now and I have to talk to him first.I
have a call into him with a message on his voice mail and I set up an appointment
for Monday the 18th of April.I
also have to look into getting my witnesses together to have them present
as well, and to coordinate around their schedules, if they turn out to
be needed.There may be some motions
filed first for a hearing to look into the "chain of command" and to attempt
to find out who specifically cleaned this crossbow.This
Hearing should have taken place long ago. There may be some other motions
filed as well.I will not know this
until I talk with my attorney.The
fact is this evidence was altered before my "Trial," the question is by
whom.The simple fact that Peavy
ignored my pleas for him to consider it when he collected this evidence
is key to fact that he either altered it or had someone alter it.As
far as the Violation of Oath of
Office
and the violations of my rights, that is simple to prove.I
have learned it is important to keep things simple, because simplicity
is something everyone understands.
Thanks
for your reconsideration in considering this matter and for your willingness
to inquire into the facts in my case. I will call you when I'm ready
to make an appointment.
Blue
skies,
Kerry

As
far as impropriety by an officer, I must refer you to Lt. Tim Baggett our
Internal Affairs officer. I know that Deputy Anderson has forwarded
your complaint to him already.
Captain
Edward Lacey
Mr.
Baggett,
What's
going on here? Why was told this and it really wasn't being done?
Is this corruption just being swept under the rug?

RE: Kerry Re:CORRUPTION IN CHEROKEE COUNTY
Mr.
Walker,Please
pardon the delay in my response to your e mail. Before responding I wanted
to confer with Capt. Lacey, commander of our Criminal Investigation Division,
to ascertain what action he had already taken regarding your complaint.
Normal procedure at Cherokee County Sheriffs Office when a complaint is
received by a division commander is that the complaint is reviewed and
a decision is made as to whether the division commander will handle the
matter at division level or refer the matter to Internal Affairs for further
investigation. Because you first wrote to Capt. Lacey and made him aware
of your allegation against Det. Peavy it was the captain's call whether
or not to refer the matter to Internal Affairs. I have heard from Capt.
Lacey regarding my question to him as to whether this matter was handled
at division level and he informs me that it has been. Therefore, my office
has not been tasked with, and will not be, conducting an inquiry into this
matter. I apologize on behalf of whoever gave you the incorrect information
that this matter was being investigated by Internal Affairs.Sincerely,Lt.
T.J. Baggett
Lieutenant Baggett, I
have never received an email confirmation that you received my letter and
that you are handling the inquiry into my complaint. If I do not
receive anything within 48 hours I will send the letter to you by Certified
Mail, with witnesses, and file a copy of the same in the Clerks office. Blue

Walker

Lieutenant
Baggett,April 4, 2005
It
is my understanding that this case dealing with the former Detective Peavy
committing the offenses of Violation of Oath of Office and Felony Tampering
with Evidence has been turned over to you.
So
far this corruption that has taken place in my case against me has been
met with the same good 'ol boy corruption that created this nightmare for
me in first place and ruined my life.I
can tell you that I have absolute proof of these offenses having been committed
and I have three of the best witnesses that could ever be hoped for.
The
fact is that Peavy did not even interview Drew Mayo, the ONLY WITNESS at
the scene of this alleged incident and that communicated with this woman
coming and going and was in my home with us the entire time.
The
fact is that Peavy did not consider evidence crucial to my case and that,
in of itself could have proved this woman's story untrue, and on the search
warrant he chose to ignore this evidence that conveyed my innocence.
The
fact is someone from the State altered this evidence before it being brought
into my trial even though they were told to preserve this evidence for
trial.This evidence was the crux
of my case.I believe the evidence
suggest that Peavy either altered this evidence or had someone alter this
evidence before it got to my trial.This
is clear by the very fact that he would not consider the facts of this
evidence when it was collected and I pointed it out to him.
The
fact is Peavy was not aware of the fact that I had two witnesses that had
observed the condition of this evidence, and one is a very honest attorney,
Jeffery Rusbridge, and the other is an "expert" witness.Drew
Mayo is a third witness and he is a man of moral integrity and he is very
angry that no interview of him ever took place before my arrest was secured
and my life destroyed, yet, again, this man was the only witness
at the scene.
The
other interesting fact about this case is the fact that a tape conversation
with this alleged victim that I had with her the day I got out of jail,
was altered to end with me saying "Bye" before the conversation was over.In
fact this was a two-way conversation, yet this transcript of this recording
has me saying "Bye" even before the first statements made by me to this
alleged victim had ended.It also
interesting to note that it was at this point of the conversation that
I asked the alleged victim about her telling everyone in the AA program
and the police that I hit myself all night long, and she reluctantly admitted
that this was not true.This
tape alone could have proved that she is violent and even more proof, on
top of overwhelming evidence, that she is a prolific liar.I
have never been able to get a copy of this recording from the State, and
several Motions for Discovery have been filed.
I
can provide you with documents and other evidence that would aid you in
your investigation.I can also provide
you with names and numbers of witnesses if needed for your inquiry.
It
is interesting to note that when I filed an Incident Report on Peavy and
these allegations against him, his name was not stated in this report and
the report referred only to a "deputy".I
recorded the filling of this report and it is odd that this report fails
to accurately portray the information as it was stated by me to Deputy
Anderson.I have never
heard of an Incident Report that was being filed on a specific individual
not stating that person's name, and to even go so far as to allude to someone
else.
It
is enough that I was the VICTIM of this biker nut case at the end of this
two-week nightmare of a relationship, but it is another to be turned into
the perpetrator and the criminal, and then by any means of dishonesty,
manipulation, and corruption to see to it that I am convicted of crimes
that I am NOT GUILTY of.All
the evidence in this case points to the fact that I am not guilty.I
have been stalked and harassed by this nut case for 3 years with several
more attempts to have me falsely arrested.I
have all the Incident Reports on these incidences as well.
My
goal at the time of this incident was to get a Pardon from a drug conviction
back in 1988 for the sale of a small amount of drugs, and I could not have
any arrest in order to possibly secure this.That
is the tragedy of this system that is so easily manipulated by these women
that are scorned and act in vengeance at the end of a relationship.My
hope is that when the truth of all this comes out and I have moved past
this, I will secure my Pardon.
Lieutenant
Baggett, what Peavy has done to me is wrong, it is a violation of law and
he should be held accountable for it.I
would be a fool to think that I could get a fair trial where those working
in this system have violated my rights and committed crimes at every turn
in this case against me.
I
look forward to hearing from you soon.
