Attention Neighbors! This comes from our neighbors in Kootenai County, ID. We have an opportunity to shine and support a fellow neighbor who is having their rights to due process infringed upon in Kootenai County. We must act quickly. Please join your neighbors at the Kootenai County Courthouse on Thursday, 5/20 @ 1PM! Bring flags and signs!

Please Read the following for a backstory....

Many of you may be aware that on March 15, 2021 Ammon Bundy and Aaron Schmidt (local CDA resident) showed up to the Ada County Courthouse in Boise, ID willing and ready to litigate their court cases in person, in front of a jury. They were denied access into the courthouse, charged with failure to appear, issued a warrant with a $10,000 bond, and then tortured in the Ada County Jail for refusing to wear a mask. On this same day, there were individuals in the courthouse WITHOUT MASKS while jurors were TURNED AWAY for not wearing a mask. It is clear that in the State of Idaho, putting  a mask over your face is less about "safety" and more about "compliance". Can due process be had in Idaho if we are forced to act against our beliefs and our conscience in order to simply enter a courthouse? Please see the following documentary and panel discussion for more information about violations in Ada County:

Did you know these atrocities are happening in our home state of Idaho!? Well it is here. NOW. It has happened in Ada County. If it can happen to those individuals, it can happen to ANYONE!

The tyranny that has engulfed Ada County has now made it's way to Kootenai County! A fellow neighbor, Nick Ramlow, has been denied access to the Kootenai County Courthouse because of his inability to wear a mask, charged with failure to appear, arrested, kept in solitary confinement for 5 hours (again, because he cannot wear a mask), and now he has another warrant out for his arrest in relation to a Failure to Appear. If they are willing to arrest peaceful, non-violent, God-fearing men in front of the courthouse for not wearing masks, then torture them in jail for not wearing a mask, what will they be willing to do if someone shows up without a vaccine?

From Nick Ramlow, Background of violations of the Defendant in Kootenai County:

On November 4, 2020 Mr. Ramlow drove four hours to appear before the court and to argue the merits, or lack thereof, of the allegations made against him. He had no prior knowledge of the SCOID Order and was denied access to the court by Jane Doe 1 and John Doe’s 1 and 2 for his refusal to wear a mask. The presiding judge continued the matter to November 18, 2020.

On November 17, 2020, Mr. Ramlow submitted a motion to attend the civil protection order hearing without wearing a mask and an affidavit in support of that motion. 

            On November 18, 2020, Mr. Ramlow drove 4 hours to appear at the civil protection hearing.  Upon arrival, Mr. Ramlow is notified by counsel, Kevin J. Waite, that his motion to attend the hearing without wearing a mask was denied by ‘Honorable’ Judge Clark A. Peterson (“Peterson”).  At 9:05 a.m. (PST), Mr. Ramlow is denied entry into the court with threat of force by John Doe 3 and Jane Doe 2 for failure to wear a mask.  Transcript of the hearing indicates that Peterson (1) treated Mr. Ramlow’s refusal to wear a mask as a failure to appear and ordered the bailiff to arrest him (2) did not allow Mr. Ramlow’s counsel to argue the merits of the case (3) allowed the petitioning party to adjoin persons to the protection order not listed in the original petition without allowing counsel’s objections to be heard and, in so-doing, (4) caused procedural and substantive injury by depriving Mr. Ramlow of fundamental due-process and paternal rights protected by the 14th Amendment of the Constitution of the United States.

            On November 18, 2020 at roughly 9:30 a.m. (PST), the arrest warrant in CR28-20-17671 is executed outside building 9 of the Kootenai County Courthouse.  Mr. Ramlow is then taken to the Kootenai County Sheriff’s Department (KCSD). While at KCSD, Mr. Ramlow refuses to wear a mask and John Doe 4 punishes him by placing him in solitary confinement and turning the air conditioning on.  After (5) hours of sustained maltreatment, Mr. Ramlow verbally objects to the compliance tactics imposed upon him by KCSD employees.  John Doe 4 concurs with verbal arguments and permits Mr. Ramlow to proceed through in-processing without requiring him to wear a mask.

            On November 19, 2020 at approximately 2:00 p.m. (PST) Mr. Ramlow is moved to a hearing room and asked by John Doe 5 to wear a mask.  Upon rejecting the offer, John Doe 5 removes Mr. Ramlow from the hearing room and places him in solitary confinement.  John Doe 5 explains “I agree with everything you are saying and stand for and I’m glad that there are people like you out there.  We need you.  On our end (KCSD) it’s a technicality and, while we don’t really give a [expletive].  I mean, I really hate these [expletive] things, but when we put guys in front of the judge we have to ‘pretend’ as if we do.  I’m going to respect your right to not wear a face covering and when its your turn to appear, I’ll come get you.” 

            On November 19, 2020 at approximately 2:45 p.m. (PST) Mr. Ramlow appears without wearing a mask as a pro se litigant before Honorable Judge Robert Caldwell.  Here, with the help of KCSD employees, Mr. Ramlow was able to argue the merits of his case and the bond requirements without interference by court staff.  Transcript of the hearing indicate that, when the prosecuting attorney attempted to adjoin children to the no contact order, Mr. Ramlow objected and his objections were heard, including: (1) Mr. Ramlow lacks prior history of any violent behavior (2) State lacks sufficient evidence to establish probable cause (3) Mr. Ramlow has a long history of fighting for and acting in the best interests of his child, and (4) that the proposed victim, who was previously being investigated for prostitution and welfare fraud has concocted these allegations as a political means of alienating Mr. Ramlow from his child.  Mr. Ramlow’s objections were sustained by Judge Caldwell and no children were adjoined to the no contact order. [Emphasis added]  The Court ordered a bond in the amount of $100,000.00 and Mr. Ramlow posted a surety bond. A pretrial conference via Zoom was scheduled for February 5, 2021 to which Mr. Ramlow appeared and explained he will exercise his right to trial and the matter was left set for status conference via Zoom for February 22, 2021 to which he again appeared. On February 23, 2021 a notice of pretrial conference via Zoom was scheduled for April 6, 2021 and trial for April 26, 2021.

On March 31, 2021, Mr. Ramlow served Peterson via his clerk of court, Cassie Poole, a Form COL Violation Warning with a citizen’s statement indicating Petersons unlawful actions and abuse of discretion and, later, on April 23, 2021 his attorney in that matter, Kevin J. Waite, filed a notice of appeal. Further, Flathead County Sheriff, Sheriff Heino, has verbally rendered the protection order issued in CV28-20-6569 null and void for blatant due process violations and is unenforceable within the jurisdiction of Flathead County, Montana. [Emphasis added]

In addition to the civil and criminal allegations of, Mr. Ramlow was still involved in the highly litigious which was scheduled for trial on April 7, 2021. Mr. Ramlow became enthralled during trial preparation and mistakenly referred to the older notice of pretrial conference via Zoom, filed on February 23, 2021. Mistakenly, Mr. Ramlow failed to appear in-person. On April 6, 2021, the Honorable Judge John A. Cafferty issued an order of bond forfeiture and a warrant to arrest Mr. Ramlow for failure to appear in-person.

On April 29, 2021, Mr. Ramlow’s new counsel in the criminal matter, Henry Madsen, filed a motion to quash warrant; set aside bond forfeiture; reinstate bond; reset for trial and/or dismiss. On April 30, 2021 a notice of in-person hearing on motion to quash warrant was filed and scheduled for May 20, 2021.

Currently, Mr. Ramlow plans to attend the hearing in-person but believes that the court staff will prohibit him from entering the building for refusal to wear a mask and the merits of his motion will not be heard.

 

Important facts to note:

  • There are over 40,000 court cases waiting to be heard before a jury in the State of Idaho.
  • People have been held in jeopardy (in some cases in JAIL) for OVER A YEAR while awaiting justice to be served. As a reminder, ALL people charged with an alleged crime are considered innocent until proven guilty. These presumably innocent individuals have been held in jeopardy (in some cases in jail) for over a year, violating their speedy trial rights, their right to due process, and their right to a fair, in-person, public, trial by jury as secured by Article I Section 18, Article I Section 13, Article I Section 7, and Article I Section 6, of the Idaho State Constitution.
  • The state of Idaho has been under Martial law for OVER A YEAR. Please CLICK HERE to see a summary and outline regarding MARTIAL LAW IN IDAHO.

We must stand up for due process here in Kootenai County before there is absolutely no due process left to be had in the State of Idaho. If we do not have due process, what do we have?

For those that haven't heard, Nick Ramlow was released on his own recognizance the afternoon of 5/21/21. He is very grateful for those that stood up for his (and our) rights. Denying people access to the courts has been going on for several months in Idaho. While the mask requirement has been softened, the vaccine requirements are on the horizon. We have to continue to expose the injustices and stand against these rights violations. When we stand, we don't just stand for one individual. We stand for all of our rights and our loved ones' rights.

Kootenai County jail will not give proof of life. They refuse. They want us to do a records request which could take 10 days. This is not how it works. So they are holding him for a misdemeanor contempt of court, for not showing up to court with a mask. We are calling Prosecutor now to find out for sure that's what it is. Holding someone for a misdemeanor without being convicted = kidnapping.

CTA just went out for Kootenai County Jail. Anyone close to Coeur d Alene, Idaho we need support. We need numbers. Please show up. If you are not close to Kootenai County Jail, please call these numbers/email these people: Please call and/or email these individuals, and peacefully let them know how we feel about these atrocities happening in Kootenai County!

3:30pm - Nick was able to get into the courtroom today without a mask. The fellow supporters were able to get into the courthouse without masks, but had to stay in the hallway. The judge quashed 2 of his 3 warrants for "failure to appear", but ended up arrested him on the 3rd warrant for "contempt of court" for a prior time that he refused to wear a mask in court. The judge reinstated his bond, but set it to $100,000, which is unbelievably excessive for a misdemeanor charge. There are several people down at the jail, awaiting further information.

Update 1: 5/19/21 - Physical presence is no longer needed for Nick Ramlow tomorrow in Kootenai County. However, we ask that you continue to call and/or email to redress your grievances about people being denied due process, tortured and held indefinitely if they cannot wear a mask. Nick is hoping to seek remedy in Montana, and is intending to take care of his warrant issue within his home jurisdiction. The BIG fear by coming to Idaho is Indefinite Detention. There are well over 40,000 cases that have not gone to trial in Idaho. His case is still ongoing and there will be updates along the way.


Update 2: 5/20/21 - Nick Ramlow was notified this morning that he must come to his trial in person. He was not able to resolve in his Montana jurisdiction. So, he is currently en route to Kootenai County Courthouse. Attendance at the Courthouse is still requested and appreciated. His intention is to have a police escort into his hearing. Sadly, there has been confusion for everyone during these unprecedented times. Thanks for understanding. Updates will be posted as we have them.


Update 3: 5/20/21 3:30pm - Nick was able to get into the courtroom today without a mask. The fellow supporters were able to get into the courthouse without masks, but had to stay in the hallway.
