This will be my final reply to this thread. If Robin seeks any of the proofs of my integrity that she seems to be questioning, I would ask that she does so on another thread by doing an inquiry about me on the BOI. Of course, if she feels so compelled she can also post either a Good Guy or bad Guy post about me. Thanks
Now at risk of having to go to HELL I will make the remainder of my final reply in this thread:
I did not post a good guy post about myself, so what do you want me to give proof about. Do you seek verifiable proof about my integrity. Is my integrity being questioned? If so why not open an inquiry about me in the BOI?
You question whether or not I have ever lied. What does that have to do with this? I will answer nonetheless - of course I have lied. In fact I have even sometimes lied in the performance of my duties to further a criminal investigation and this has been held by federal courts to be legal and ethical. I, however, have never lied under oath, nor have I ever lied on the BOI to the best of my recollection nor have I ever lied during the buying or selling of an item. I am not making a claim about my integrity - I leave that for others to do. Nor am I making a bad guy claim against someone with what I believe to be insufficient evidence. If however you wish to make a claim against me, feel free to do so if you have facts that suggest me to be less than a fairly moral person. I claim to be not more than that, by standards of morality of my own choosing (and I think they are fairly conservative except regarding my religious affiliations if any).
Regarding business deals, I can provide feedback from several business deals. All feedback is excellent, and some people have stated that things I sold were actually better than I described. I can also supply PayPal receipts or Ebay records (or other online auction site records) to show the deals were actually made.
I can also supply a copy of my Federal Firearms license as a Collector of Curios and relics. I believe this required the federal government to do some sort of background checks on me.
If you would like proof of my integrity as related to my employment: well I am subjected to a federal background investigation approximately every 5 years. I am also subject to random drug screening. I am also subject to the Giglio decision regarding my testimony in federal courts. I am not at liberty to divulge findings of any federal background investigations to you, heck I am not even privy to the findings except that I keep passing them. However, you can easily check federal regulations about my employment to find that these checks are routinely carreied out. I would lose my job if an investigation revealed any serious offense.
As to having sufficient integrity to testify in federal court, and having integrity during my testimony, you can purchase copies the federal court records from trials and other proceeding during which I have testified. My testimony has neer been censored, and my integrity not doubted by the federal court system. If it had been - well then I would not still be a federal criminal investigator or at least would not be performing any duties for which I could be caled to testify thanks to the Giglio decision. I can supply case names and dates, and the court of record. You can see about ordring and paying for the records.
Would you also like to see the awards of merit I have received from my employer. I can make copies available to you if you would like to pay for the copying and the postage. I do not own a digital camera or scanner, but I could take regular photos of them, and have a photo disk made up and then post them here. Send me the cash for the photo developing and disk, and I'll do just that. I also recently passed a drug screening test. Would you like the results. Once they are mailed to me I can also send you a copy at your expense (I found out I passed by telephone - but that was no surprise to me).
If you desire another type of proof as to my integrity - then please be explicit as to what would satisfy you in that regard. I will gladly supply any evicence, within legal limits and within reason and the bounds of my morality, that I am capable of supplying - for which you are willing to pay.
You can also pay to have a criminal history check run on me. I think you will find it conclusive that my integrity regarding any type of convictions for felonies or misdemeanors is exemplary. Sorry, I would do this myself as I do have easy access to such computer sustems, but such would be unethical and quite illegal for me to do because of my employment.
You say not to give you statements from other people, and I wonder why. I never said such was not verifiable evidence as you seem to suggest. What I thought was lacking in statements appearing in this post, was that statements against Laura were all from parties who claim to have been wronged and not one of those people early on offered anything but their statements. They did not offer statements from others saying - yes I have direct knowledge of that transaction - as I recall. They each offered their individual experiences. Sure these were evidence to some extent, but are generally considered the weakest form of evidence. Not one, early on in this thread, would produce any copy of an email, or a picture or a receipt or a vets bill, not until many requests for such had been made. Other evidence whcih surely should have been available to back such claims, was not produced when the accusations were made.
Now I wonder, are you raising the ante and seeking more than that regarding my integrity? Hmm, that would be, in my opinion, rather personal and subjective your part. I was only asking for what is routinely asked for by others on the BOI. Are You raising the requirement to meet some sort of personal vendetta against me? At the same time are you questioning, in an obscure way, whether or not I am lying about something on the BOI? If so please be explicit; I think I have proof of my integrity.
A final note: You may wonder why I offer these proofs at your expense. I am not accusing anyone of anything. I am calling no one to task about their integrity. If you care to call me to task, and want such proofs that cost money to produce, then go ahead and pay for them.
The burden of proof is with the accuser. That was sort of my point in this thread - maybe you missed it. It certainly was not my intention to call anyone's integrity to task, but rather to call to task the integrity of some accusations and of the BOI. I also simply asked for evidence from people who were calling another's itergity to task. Such should be the burden of the accuser, in my opinion, and in the opinion of our current legal system. So if you are questioning my integrity, or if you are saying that my intergity is less than it should be, the burden of proof should be yours - not mine. If you accept that burden, then please feel free to seek out all the evidence you require about my integrity or lack of it.
Sincerely,
Glenn Bartley
