Tacoma News Tribune _ May 14, 2006:

1993 _ Ten years after my 1983 arrest Staurset admitted he was a foreign-born  intelligence officer and participated in framing me for rape to ruin my reputation and credibility as a witness.

Staurset admitted accepting three bribes from State of Washington not to properly represent me, and not sue the state.
Congressman Adam Smith placed me under surveillance, and sent a member of his staff (retired CIA officer) to threaten me.

April 3, 2006 _ Key Bank parking lot, University Place, Washington ...I was contacted by intelligence officer on the staff of Congressman Adam Smith. He informed me he was present in the Tactical Intelligence Operations Center - Saigon, and monitored radio traffic during the massacre, the friendly-fire murder of Captain Poole and his crew, and my helicopter being shot down by friendly fire.

He warned me to cease Internet activities concerning my attorney, foreign-born intelligence officer  Sverre Staurset or face serious life-changing events.
Sverre Staurset
June 1983:  Framed by attorney Sverre O. Staurset, Special Forces, Military Intelligence, Pierce County Sheriff, and American Lake Veterans Administration.

Protect careers, ruin my reputation and credibility as witness to several murders at Fort Lewis.

January 1997:  Pierce County Superior Court:

Probation Officer Gallegos,“Your Honor it was a million-to-one fluke Mr. Collins was charged with this crime.”

Judge Hogan, “Dan just get-on with your life.” 

I was not ordered to register as a sex offender.

Under Color of Law _ Fircrest Police Chief Kenoyer on a Friday afternoon after normal duty hours served me with order to immediately register as a sex offender of face immediate arrest.  I was not allowed to consult with an attorney.

August 1997:   Fircrest Washington:

City officials acting on ‘vindictive gossip’ were determined to force me to leave Fircrest.

Under Color of Law _ Fircrest Police Chief Kenoyer on a Friday afternoon after normal duty hours served me with order to immediately register as a sex offender of face immediate arrest.

I was not allowed to consult with an attorney.

When I arrived at Pierce County Sheriff information desk I was directed to accompany Detective Wilke to process my registration. The office was closed. She had to turn on the lights.

My state file was immediately sealed by Governor Gregoire. My attorney rights were vacated, preventing me from suing State of Washington and City of Fircrest.

Attorney Daryl Graves (represented Randy Alyea … details listed below) phoned me.

“No attorney is ever going to take-on the Washington State Good Old Boy Network to represent you.”
January 29, 1998:  Whistle blower informed me concerning secret meeting at Fircrest City Hall between neighbors, police, and city officials and was infiltrated by an attorney.

Transcript from attorney notes:

Viafore, Police Chief Kenoyer, City Manager Richards, City Attorney Smith, Bill & Pam Hannon, Kristine & Kenneth Walls, and James Monroe boasted about what they had done to Karen Lawson and me.

City Attorney Smith boasted of "hiding evidence" of Lawson's dogs being grandfathered.

Bill & Pam Hannon and Kristine & Kenneth Walls were particularly vicious, and angry because city officials promised registering [without authority] me as a sex offender would guarantee I would go with the dogs.

Bill Hannon, "We believed that if we took away her dogs he would also go!"

Pam Hannon, "We believed what lives next door would go with the dogs!"

Kristine Walls, "For my husband Kenneth and me this has always been about property values!"

Kenneth Walls, "It was a done deal! We got sold down the river!"

Mayor Viafore, "Dan Collins is ninety percent of the problem! This will come before planning department again, and again!"

Police Chief Kenoyer, "If any of you have a problem with Collins, contact me on my cell phone and I'll handle Dan Collins personally!"

Kenoyer gave neighbors his cell phone number.
Attorney said because of the vicious content of conspirators he had concerns for my personal safety.

After the meeting Police Chief Kenoyer was confronted by the attorney.

Kenoyer, "I was pressured to register Collins as a sex offender. I might have acted hastily. We believed it would be easier to force him to leave Fircrest."

Chief Kenoyer was pressured by Mayor Viafore (neighbor) Bill & Pam Hannon and Kenneth & Kristine Walls also neighbors.

Mayor Viafore (neighbor), Council Member Foss (neighbor) entire City Council, Planning Department Gustin (neighbor) Police Chief Kenoyer, and neighbors Bill & Pam Hannon, Kenneth & Kristine Walls knew Judge Hogan did not order me to register as a sex offender.

Police Chief Kenoyer as Viafore and City Council scapegoat was forced to resign over my color of law illegal backdoor registration as a sex offender.

                                                                                         Illegal Wiretaps

January 1997 - 2019:  Fircrest City Council & Police Department sanctioned and covered-up civil rights and felony crimes in efforts to force me to leave Fircrest.

Aggresive neighbors threw rocks, timber, and steel rods at windows and on top of house to start dogs barking, and phoned Viafore with Humane Society arriving to harass me.

Steel spikes were tossed onto to the front lawn so I would injure myself mowing the lawn.

Neighbors repeatedly knocked-down the mail box.

Neighbors kicked the garage door (leaving their footprints) to set dogs barking, and phoned Viafore with Humane Society arriving to harass me.

Neighbors repeatedly tore down No Trespassing signs.

Neighbors opened gate at night so dogs would get out. We found three of our dogs two blocks away.

Neighbor poisoned three of my dogs.

Neighbors pulled saplings out of the ground by their roots, and mowed-down flower beds.

Someone used a commercial highway grade pressure washer to remove top soil from front lawn.

Neighbors and Viafore's thugs defaced and tore down information signs.

Neighbors would "telegraph" a pending property destruction raid by going to the end of their driveways.

Homeowner and I were accosted on the street in front of our residence, and threatened with physical harm and death threats
(1998-99 & 2003).

Regardless of physical evidence of property destruction, videos of crimes in progress, tape recorded confrontations with aggressive neighbors police always said ___ "Dan it never happened."

Paradise Parkway is heavily populated with City Hall employees and "friends" of City Hall.

Police Department wired five lines on my street into my residence phone.

Events in 2011 and 2017 (burglary) indicate wiretaps were in place "prior" to 2011 and thru 2017 (possibly thru 2024).
Arrested June 1983:  Pierce County Jail _ Seven months pretrial solitary confinement.

December 1983 _  Attorney Staurset, “The judge and prosecutor know you were framed by the army. If you go back to the army, you will probably be killed. Plead guilty for six months protective custody. In six months you will be discharged from the army free to get on with your life.”

Black’s Law Dictionary

Protective Custody:  The governments confinement of a person for that person’s own security or well-being, such as a witness whose safety is in jeopardy.”

Staurset, "Plead Guilty. If you go back to the army, you will probably be killed.”
 
I did not tell my wife or attorney Staurset details of my parachute failure or the hot load of Morphine, however it appears Staurset ‘knew’ and he knew I would believe my life was still in danger
.
September - December 1981:

September 1981 _ An intelligence officer contacted me and I was informed six Rangers and a Warrant Officer had been murdered in a mole operation He informed me I was being reassigned to the Ranger unit to replace murdered medical platoon sergeant.

November 1981 _ Individual in forest pattern BDU with SFC chevrons stood in the doorway of my office. Stared me down, said nothing and departed. A few weeks later he returned to my office door wearing Dress Greens with Major's Oak Leaves on his shoulders. Stared me down, said nothing and departed.

December 2, 1981 _ Command (senior personnel) night parachute jump. Stood up to hook up. The Major (Special Forces) punched me in my head and personally hooked-up my static line.

Parachute failed. Stiff breeze under my chin, no forward speed. Lowered my rucksack, assumed landing position. I came down with my right foot impacting my rucksack, knocked over on my back. Right leg broken 180 degree roll-over, heel up, toes facing the ground, fractured right hip, spine and neck injuries, three hernias, two black eyes, bleeding from my right ear.

September 1997:  Defense Intelligence Agency officer told me the broken parachutes issued to me were imported from Fort Bragg to Fort Lewis. Another unit operating in the area, using night vision told me I came out of the sky with the glide path of a brick.
Madigan General Hospital:  Orthopedic Surgeon, Captain Casio wheeled my gurney to the orthopedic clinic (no witnesses there). Without anesthesia he twisted, pulled my leg and manipulated broken bones into basic place. He told me he had to gauge my reaction to pain. Administered 1/4 grain of Morphine and wheeled me to surgical ward.

I woke up in pain. The nurse checked my chart and remarked it had been four hours since my last dose of Morphine. She administered an injection of Demerol. I pointed out my IV had backed-up with blood in the tube. She checked my chart, remarking IV was not supposed to be turned off. She restarted my IV.

I watched the clear fluid push the blood out of the tube. I felt a surge, rush, vision gray, vision black. I died. From across the ward I watched the crash team pull me back.

Someone loaded my IV tube with hot dose of Morphine. Probably Captain Casio.
August 1982 _ I was reassigned to Germany on a reduced paper trail, with no assignment. Senior personnel always have a direct assignment to gaining unit. I did not.

September 1982 _ Ordered back to Fort Lewis and immediately arrested by CID Agents on trumped-up charges..
Transported to the stockade for pretrial solitary confinement.

Sixty days and nights under bright lights. Required to lie on my back facing lights, not allowed to cover my eyes to sleep. Required to sit barefoot on cold concrete floor eight hours a day aggravating injuries sustained in parachute failure.

On day sixty-one the warden told me the abusive solitary confinement was ordered from General officers at Fort Bragg (Special Forces & Military Intelligence). He removed me from solitary to a two-man cell, returned my boots and uniform with rank insignia. Prisoners are not allowed to wear rank. He assigned me as primary instructor for the guards.

January 1983 _ Acquitted in a two-day General Court Martial.

Court Martial was classified.  CID Agents confiscated my trial transcript.
June 1983 _ Still unassigned. I phoned the Pentagon and was informed I was still in Germany. I had been at Fort Lewis for eight months and was "still" in Germany.

At my off post residence a Pierce County Sheriff Detective and five uniformed deputies arrested me at gunpoint on a charge of first degree rape. The Detective allowed me to phone my attorney, Sverre Staurset.

He answered on the first ring.  Staurset, "Shut the fuck up and put the detective on the phone!" 
Staurset knew I was going to be arrested.

Ten years after my arrest Staurset (foreign-born intelligence officer) admitted he participated in framing me.
December 1983 _  Attorney Staurset, “The judge and prosecutor know you were framed by the army. If you go back to the army, you will probably be killed. Plead guilty for six months protective custody. In six months you will be discharged from the army free to get on with your life.”

Black’s Law Dictionary _ Protective Custody:  The governments confinement of a person for that person’s own security or well-being, such as a witness whose safety is in jeopardy.”

Staurset, "Plead Guilty. If you go back to the army, you will probably be killed.”

I did not tell my wife or Staurset details of my parachute failure or the hot load of Morphine, however it appears Staurset ‘knew’ and he knew I would believe my life was still in danger.
January 16, 1984 (judge-only trial):  In the court room it was criminal insanity this, and criminal insanity that.

I looked at Staurset and whispered “What the f**k!”

Staurset hissed, “Shut the f**k up and just say yes to everything!”

Note: Prosecutor attempted to protect me because my attorney did not.

Prosecutor attempted to introduce state document into evidence. Multiple interviews at Western State Hospital:

“Upon admission Mr. Collins was alert, cooperative and oriented. His mood and affect were appropriate. Delusions or hallucinations were not noted. He was neither homicidal nor suicidal and was reasonable and realistic.”

“Also, he is certain that the Army wishes to destroy his credibility to prevent him from pursuing his efforts to expose the shoddiness of the training which is offered to the Fort Lewis soldiers.”

“Consensual sexual liaison (no rape).”

“Despite two reports from Western State Hospital that Mr. Collins was not criminally insane and that he was not suffering from a major mental illness.”

Prosecutor refused to sign-off on court disposition sentencing me twenty-to-life on a locked ward for the criminally insane.

From copy of document purged to hide evidence: “Dan Collins was committed to Western State Hospital as a criminally insane person on February 1, 1984.”
Alyea Connection 1976 and 1983:

1976:  Aboard a C-130 for a night parachute drop into Oregon PFC Randy Alyea offered me an orange from his lunch box a few minutes before we were to jump. He did not touch the orange.

I took the orange in my right hand. It was slick with oil. A flash bulb went off inside my head. I was hallucinating too severely to exit the aircraft and was terminated from the Ranger unit for in flight jump refusal.

1983: Sergeant Randy Alyea introduced himself to women as “Dan Collins”.

Alyea raped six women at gunpoint.

He was arrested and identified by five of his victims.

My attorneys (Sverre Staurset) law partner Daryl Graves represented Alyea.

Alyea walked. I was sentenced twenty-to-life on a locked ward for the criminally insane.
Back-Track Time Line:

Vietnam 1968-69  3rd Platoon 45th Medical Company (AA) Dustoff Medic _ We received a mission for a school house blown up with two command detonated Chinese claymore mines. A few minutes later the mission was scrubbed. Then within minutes the mission was on again.

When we arrived, the scene was absolute pandemonium. How were "investigators" able so quickly to identify the source of the two explosions?  Looking up, I spotted an Air America (CIA) Huey with a full movie crew filming our dramatic rescue. The mission was scrubbed initially because Air America was late arriving on target.

It was absolute pandemonium. The crew chief and I had no control over loading patients aboard. Hysterical Vietnamese kept shoving dead and dying children into my aircraft. We were literally chin deep in casualties and could not even lift our arms to help anyone.
The crew chief appeared horrified. He obviously saw the same horror on my face.

We made a second trip much the same as first. Every interior surface of my helicopter was covered in blood. Our  uniforms were covered in blood. Blood foamed out of my boots with every step.
February 1969 _ Tying-up loose ends the other Dustoff (my original crew from 1st platoon) involved in the school house mission was shot down by friendly fire RPG with no survivors. [Internet version is a cover story].

I asked to attend their memorial service and was informed it was not safe for me to go to the headquarters area. I was ordered to fly combat support missions for the Australians. It was safer to risk combat than to attend the memorial service.
April 8, 1969 _ My helicopter was shot down by .50 caliber friendly-fire. Crash and burn 120 knots (138 mph). From the light of my burning aircraft I could clearly observe another Huey (sterile no markings) hovering near the river bank. The crew made no effort to render assistance. Just as the door gunner was leaning into his M-60 machine gun, the pilot pulled pitch and departed.

I believe they heard radio traffic of Navy patrol boats inbound to check source of the fire. We worked our way down river for about a hundred yards and hid in the river up to our necks. After a while Navy personnel pulled us aboard their boats.

Any wreckage with a bullet hole that did not melt in the fire was hoisted-out by my company commander and dropped into the river to hide evidence.
1968 - 1981:  Vietnam - Fort Lewis - Germany - Fort Sill - Fort Lewis - Germany - Fort Lewis:

Vietnam: Dustoff Medic

Fort Lewis: Military Intelligence - Military Police

Germany: Medic - Adventure Training NCO - Dustoff Medic

Fort Sill: Dustoff Medic

Fort Benning Airborne School

Fort Lewis: Assigned Ranger Element Medic

Infantry Medical Platoon Sergeant

S-2 Intelligence Sergeant

Military Police

Assigned Ranger unit as replacement Medical Platoon Sergeant.

HHC 9th Medical Battalion Medical Platoon Sergeant
1979 Fort Lewis _ 2/39th Infantry:

Battalion Commander LTC Stephens was an empty uniform from Pentagon for command time _ return to Pentagon and fast track promotion. Soldiers under his command were the least of his concerns.

LTC Stephens went home one night when I was medical platoon sergeant. Arriving at work the following day he found I was his intelligence sergeant. He was too paranoid to allow me to attend staff meetings and demanded to know who sent me to spy on him. He relieved me of duty and personally signed the order for transfer back to Military Police.
My platoon leader was 2LT Nyland. She was about as unprofessional as anyone could be. She would storm into situations already under control and being worked-out, demanding everyone be taken into custody. This behavior generated a full scale bar fight in the Madigan Club, spilling-over onto the front lawn and parking lot. She jumped into her cruiser and drove away.

In a domestic dispute, everything under control, she stormed in and demanded the soldier be taken into custody, at which point the spouse grabbed an iron skillet and cold cocked my patrol partner. Again LT Nyland ran away.

There were many other incidents, always covered-up by Provost Marshal Colonel Weinstein, because LT Nyland was female, and her daddy was a general.
January 1981 _ LT Nyland, too busy flirting with her enlisted boyfriend failed to complete our morning briefing, resulting in the murder of a fourteen year old female. The previous day (day of incomplete briefing) my patrol partner and I observed a young female hitch hiking near Gray Airfield. I warned her Fort Lewis was a dangerous place and she should not accept rides.

Provost Marshal would not allow courtesy transports.The following morning we were instructed to respond for a dead body discovered in the woods. This was the young girl I warned not to accept rides at Fort Lewis.
Crime scene was soon populated with LT Nyland, CID, OSI, Air Force Security Police, FBI, Washington State Patrol, Detectives from Pierce, Thurston, and King Counties.  I was ordered to identify the body.

LT Nyland sarcastic as always, "What's the matter Collins! Never seen a dead body before!" For the Record _ Vietnam, Germany, Oklahoma, Arkansas, McChord, and Fort Lewis. This particular dead body bothered me because her death should not have happened, and would not have happened except through my platoon leaders dereliction of duty.
I saw a blue Volks Wagon beetle with chrome pipes round the curve on dirt road entering the crime scene. I moved through the crowd and had the driver at gunpoint. Apparently he had returned to view his latest kill.

My platoon leader and others got between us. In the confusion the suspect backed out and escaped. A few minutes later others realized this was the serial killer we had been searching for for four months. Provost Marshal Colonel Weinstein again covered-up platoon leaders dereliction of duty.
A few months later I was assigned a different patrol partner known not to be trusted and  totally unreliable. We received an assault call to my old unit (LTC Stephens). When we arrived the CQ (Charge of Quarters) informed us there had been no assault, however a soldier matching the description of the suspect was in the day room. Entering the day room I was immediately attacked by the suspect.

He gained control of my pistol. I won the fight by accident when my assailant lost his footing. During the fight my patrol partner made no effort to assist me. Challenged for his cowardice, he responded, "I didn't want to get into trouble."

I had been setup by LTC Stephens and Provost Marshal Colonel Weinstein. My patrol partner was part of the setup. If I had been killed in LTC Stephens unit, there would have been no investigation.

My assailant did not spend a single night behind bars. My patrol partner was promoted to plain clothes investigator (PMI).
I was relieved of duty and reassigned to the training office.
September - December 1981:

September 1981 _ An intelligence officer contacted me and I was informed six Rangers and a Warrant Officer had been murdered in a mole operation He informed me I was being reassigned to the Ranger unit to replace murdered medical platoon sergeant.

November 1981 _ Individual in forest pattern BDU with SFC chevrons stood in the doorway of my office. Stared me down, said nothing and departed. A few weeks later he returned to my office door wearing Dress Greens with Major's Oak Leaves on his shoulders. Stared me down, said nothing and departed.

December 2, 1981 _ Command (senior personnel) night parachute jump. Stood up to hook up. The Major (Special Forces) punched me in my head and personally hooked-up my static line.

Another unit operating in the area, using night vision told me I came out of the sky with the glide path of a brick.

September 1997:  DIA (Defense Intelligence Agency) officer told me the broken parachutes issued to me were imported from Fort Bragg to Fort Lewis.

From across the ward I watched the crash team pull me back.

Someone loaded my IV tube with hot dose of Morphine. Probably Captain Casio.
September 1982 - January 1983:  Fort Lewis Stockade.

June 1983 - February 1984: Pierce County Jail.

January 16, 1984: Judge-Only (show) trial.

December 1983 _  Attorney Staurset, “The judge and prosecutor know you were framed by the army. If you go back to the army, you will probably be killed. Plead guilty for six months protective custody. In six months you will be discharged from the army free to get on with your life.”

In the court room it was criminal insanity this, and criminal insanity that.

I looked at Staurset and whispered “What the f**k!”

Staurset hissed, “Shut the f**k up and just say yes to everything!”

Note: Prosecutor attempted to protect me because my attorney did not.

Prosecutor refused to sign-off on court disposition sentencing me twenty-to-life on a locked ward for the criminally insane.

From copy of document purged to hide evidence:

“Dan Collins was committed to Western State Hospital as a criminally insane person on February 1, 1984.”
Western State Hospital - First Day:

Forensic Therapist Marie Erickson introduced me to the other prisoners.

This is Dan. He murdered babies in Vietnam!”

Erickson boasted she protested the Vietnam War, and she hated soldiers. Erickson and her supervisor Eileen McConi were in a therapy group because of their man-hating issues.

Rebuttal to Erickson’s comment, “This is Dan. He murdered babies in Vietnam!”

Vietnam 1968-69  3rd Platoon 45th Medical Company (AA) Dustoff Medic _ We received a mission for a school house blown up with two claymore mines. When we arrived, the scene was absolute pandemonium.

The crew chief and I had no control over loading patients aboard. Hysterical Vietnamese kept shoving dead and dying children into my aircraft. We were literally chin deep in casualties and could not even lift our arms to help anyone.

The crew chief appeared horrified. He obviously saw the same horror on my face.

We made a second trip with pretty much the same results. Every interior surface of my helicopter was covered in blood. Our  uniforms were covered in blood. Blood foamed out of my boots with every step.
October 1984:  Medical Board Madigan General Hospital:

Witnesses: Attorney Staurset, Western State Hospital, American Lake Veterans Administration.

Psychiatrist LTC Wamble had participated in framing me and had been relieved of duty.

Psychiatrist LTC Keyhoe, “Since neither the State of Washington, nor Western State Hospital have ever proven their case, SFC Collins should be released from confinement.”
June 1985:   Pierce County Superior Court Release Hearing:

Bribe Number One: (see copies of multiple documents purged to hide evidence).

Psychiatrist LTC Keyhoe was not invited, however Psychiatrist LTC Wamble (relieved of duty) was present and submitted into evidence documents he altered and re-dated to appear more recent than LTC Keyhoe’s findings (see document).

Western State Hospital:  In suit and tie, Staff had me prepared to attend my release hearing. Forensic Therapist Marie Erickson ordered staff to keep me on the ward, and away from telephones. Staff allowed me to phone Judge Healy’s chambers. Attorney Staurset returned my call. He was furious at me for making the call.

Multiple meetings between Staurset, Judge Healy, Prosecutor Brintnall, American Lake Veterans Administration, and Erickson coordinated (conspiracy with bribe) waiving my right to be present in court (see documents). See Erickson’s handwriting on June 1985 document. She had a lot of emotional baggage.
In 1987 a federal investigator interviewed me on the ward. Erickson and her supervisor were eavesdropping. They ran the investigator off the ward. Erickson and her supervisor were relieved of their duties and forced to resign over years of targeting me in patient abuse.

July 11, 1988  Six criminally insane prisoners attempted to beat me to death. Their leader boasted they had spit their medication, and worked-out for two weeks preparing to kill me.

Bleeding profusely, I was denied immediate medical care while staff conducted an emergency butt-covering meeting. Staff were aware I was a warehoused military intelligence prisoner.

One staff remarked, "We are all going to lose our jobs over this!"

July 12, 1988  Staurset arrived on the ward and took several photos of my injuries.

July 1993 Bribe Number Two:  Staurset denied he had been on the ward photographing my injuries (see signed document).

Staurset, "Dan I was never there. You must have imagined that."

August 8, 1988: Released from confinement on one year court ordered probation.

Director Vitols summoned me to his office.

"Dan we have known for several years (December 1983 - August 1988) you were not a danger to yourself or to others. If you remained here we can no longer guarantee your safety."

So regardless of the "criminal insanity" cover story _ it seems I was in "protective custody".

Black’s Law Dictionary

Protective Custody:  The governments confinement of a person for that person’s own security or well-being, such as a witness whose safety is in jeopardy.”

Western State Hospital authorities decided it was safer (for their careers) to release me from "protective custody" and let me take my chances on the street.
September 6, 2018 _ Letter from Pierce County Sheriff Internal Affairs: I was informed there is a  May 8, 1990
document "bearing my signature"  to register as a sex offender.

That signature is a forgery. Peggy Shinn was my probation officer at that time.

Shinn was arrogant and abusive. If I had not registered as a sex offender she would have vacated my probation and sent me to Monroe Prison. The signature on that document is a forgery.

Shinn was a forensic therapist at Western State Hospital involved in the cover-up of six criminally insane prisoners attempting to beat me to death. She was aware my attorney Sverre O. Staurset accepted a bribe to cover-up.

August 1989 _ I completed court ordered one year probation _ Probation Officer Garrett sent a letter to the court.

American Lake Veterans Administration warned Pierce County Prosecutor John Ladenburg if I was released from probation
I planned to sue Western State Hospital for years of targeted patient abuse.

Peggy Shinn became a probation officer and had me transferred to her caseload.

Without a new court order probation was extended another 7 1/2 years.

I never saw the May 8, 1990 letter and my signature is a forgery.

In 1994 Shinn boasted (tape recorded) "Your file has been sanitized and purged! You can't prove a damned thing!"

I was directed to appear in Superior Court. Shinn told me court had been cancelled. On a gut feeling I made a phone call and was told, "You better have your butt in here on time."

Probation Officer Shinn, Prosecutor Ladenburg, Prosecutor Brintnal, Western State Hospital, and American Lake Veterans Administration attempted to frame me, send me to Monroe Prison because I was researching my 1983 case.

I hand carried copies of purged documents and tape recordings of sessions with Shinn to the office of Governor Lowry. There were two investigations (covered-up). Department of Corrections personnel gave me copies of facts and findings.

Shinn was abusive and in 1995 was relieved of duty (my case only).

She withheld my file from new Probation Officer Gallegos for thirty days (sanitized).

1995 _ Probation Officer Gallegos, "The Governor Lowry investigation opened a real can of worms in Olympia".

Western State Hospital staff and Department of Corrections personnel gave me copies of 269 documents before the originals were destroyed to hide evidence of Western State Hospital and Department of Corrections (Shinn) abuse.                 

During the Governor Lowry investigation several court letters written by Shinn were proven to be false information.

When I was her only client for the day she frequently kept me waiting for several hours for a ten minute session. She twirled handcuffs on her finger, displayed her service revolver during sessions.

She changed my rating from NGRI to "CONVICTED FELON" October 31, 1994.

State (Neff) refused to reverse setting March 31, 1997. Any relationship to Western State Hospital _ Bud Neff?

Final session with Shinn evolved into a shouting match. Her supervisor came into the office and took Shinn's chair.

I enumerated years of Shinn's abusive behavior.

Sweat beaded-up on her forehead, dripped from her nose, down her throat.

I saw the hall fill-up with staff  (I never left my chair) and was certain I was going to be taken down.

Then I noticed the staff were smiling as though to say "That Bitch is finally getting hers".

January 1997:  Pierce County Superior Court:

Probation Officer Gallegos,“Your Honor it was a million-to-one fluke Mr. Collins was charged with this crime.”

Judge Hogan, “Dan just get-on with your life.” 

I was not ordered to register as a sex offender.

August 1997:   Fircrest Washington:

City officials acting on ‘vindictive gossip’ were determined to force me to leave Fircrest.

Under Color of Law _ Fircrest Police Chief Kenoyer on a Friday afternoon after normal duty hours served me with order to immediately register as a sex offender of face immediate arrest.

I was not allowed to consult with an attorney.

When I arrived at Pierce County Sheriff information desk I was directed to accompany Detective Wilke to process my registration. The office was closed. She had to turn on the lights.

My state file was immediately sealed by Governor Gregoire. My attorney rights were vacated, preventing me from suing State of Washington and City of Fircrest.
January 29, 1998:  Whistle blower informed me concerning secret meeting at Fircrest City Hall between neighbors, police, and city officials and was infiltrated by an attorney.

Transcript from attorney notes:

Viafore, Police Chief Kenoyer, City Manager Richards, City Attorney Smith, Bill & Pam Hannon, Kristine & Kenneth Walls, and James Monroe boasted about what they had done to Karen Lawson and me.

City Attorney Smith boasted of "hiding evidence" of Lawson's dogs being grandfathered.

Bill & Pam Hannon and Kristine & Kenneth Walls were particularly vicious, and angry because city officials promised registering [without authority] me as a sex offender would guarantee I would go with the dogs.

Bill Hannon, "We believed that if we took away her dogs he would also go!"

Pam Hannon, "We believed what lives next door would go with the dogs!"

Kristine Walls, "For my husband Kenneth and me this has always been about property values!"

Kenneth Walls, "It was a done deal! We got sold down the river!"

Mayor Viafore, "Dan Collins is ninety percent of the problem! This will come before planning department again, and again!"

Police Chief Kenoyer, "If any of you have a problem with Collins, contact me on my cell phone and I'll handle Dan Collins personally!"

Kenoyer gave neighbors his cell phone number.

January 1997 - 2019:  Fircrest City Council & Police Department sanctioned and covered-up civil rights and felony crimes in efforts to force me to leave Fircrest.

Aggresive neighbors threw rocks, timber, and steel rods at windows and on top of house to start dogs barking, and phoned Viafore with Humane Society arriving to harass me.

Steel spikes were tossed onto to the front lawn so I would injure myself mowing the lawn.

Neighbors repeatedly knocked-down the mail box.

Neighbors kicked the garage door (leaving their footprints) to set dogs barking, and phoned Viafore with Humane Society arriving to harass me.

Neighbors repeatedly tore down No Trespassing signs.

Neighbors opened gate at night so dogs would get out. We found three of our dogs two blocks away.

Neighbor poisoned three of my dogs.

Neighbors pulled saplings out of the ground by their roots, and mowed-down flower beds.

Someone used a commercial highway grade pressure washer to remove top soil from front lawn.

Neighbors and Viafore's thugs defaced and tore down information signs.

Neighbors would "telegraph" a pending property destruction raid by going to the end of their driveways.

Homeowner and I were accosted on the street in front of our residence, and threatened with physical harm and death threats
(1998-99 & 2003).

Regardless of physical evidence of property destruction, videos of crimes in progress, tape recorded confrontations with aggressive neighbors police always said ___ "Dan it never happened."

Paradise Parkway is heavily populated with City Hall employees and "friends" of City Hall.

Police Department wired five lines on my street into my residence phone.

Events in 2011 and 2017 (burglary) indicate wiretaps were in place "prior" to 2011 and thru 2017 (possibly thru 2024).

Staff were aware I was a warehoused military intelligence prisoner.

One staff remarked, “We are all going to lose our jobs over this!”

Staff charting of the assault was typically watered-down.

One staff made the mistake of charting attorney Staurset coming to the ward and taking photos for evidence.

Staurset, “I was never there. Dan you must have imagined that.” (see document - Staurset’s signature).

Note: _ Recent surveillance at Fred Meyer Mildred Street. Loading groceries into my van (raining). Something odd about vehicle with two occupants. Noted license plate. Returned to my van after replacing shopping cart, other vehicle was gone.

Turning onto my street I spotted the vehicle parked two doors down. Parked my van in garage, proceeded around side of motor home. Two males exited the vehicle, proceeded directly to my driveway, up the steps to my front porch in the dark.
It seems from their familiarity they had conducted previous reconnaissance.

I was six feet behind them up the steps, moved to one side, and bracketed them in extremely bright LED light.

One of the men had his hand on the door knob. Blinding both men with the light and challenging their presence, one of them told me they were missionaries. I was soaking wet, the missionaries after "supposedly" going door to door were dry. Unable to produce distribution I (rudely) escorted them off the property.

They returned one night at 10:30 PM. I was sitting in a chair observing activity on my street. Again bracketing them with the same LED light, they produced religious distribution. Missionaries at 10:30 PM... Give me a break!
