The group of government agents and private-citizen co-conspirators is hereafter in some cases referred to as the Infiltrators, and the group of MCCLC attendees and other victims is referred to as Citizens.

And that INCLUDES Declan McCullagh.  Remember him?   He had the prospect of covering a truly gigantic story, but he flinched.  In early 2002, he claimed he would visit me at USP Lompoc, to cover my story,  He never showed.  And he lied about it:  Claimed that he couldn't, 'at the last moment', but in reality he didn't even bother to fill out the paperwork to have a visit approved...and that would have had to happen 2 weeks prior to the visit.
I don't object to the mere lack of a visit:  I objected to the fact that he apparently went from covering the story...WHEN the government would have WANTED him to cover it...to suddenly abandoning the story once I got 'convicted'.

Eventually...

Limitations is very complicated.  According to a 1937 Supreme Court decision, Erie Railroad v. Tompkins  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erie_Railroad_Co._v._Tompkins  the SC held that if a federal law had no explicit rule attached, Federal courts had to 'borrow' the corresponding rule from State law.  This included the limitations period ("statute of limitations").    That would have been great in the State of Washington, which up to 1993 'tolled' (stopped the clock) on a civil suit while a person was a prisoner.  Here's a good handling of the general problem, not specifically on Washington:

Before 1993, being a prisoner tolled the limitations period.  In 1993, that law was repealed.

I knew about this in 2001, so I knew that I couldn't wait.

>Timing is really important Jim - the folks who did you over in their
pathetic star chamber, may not (all?) be holding seats of powertoday.

Yes, I knew how important knowing these statutes was.

>Then again, other similarly criminal humans may have replaced those
who've moved on."

No doubt..

file your claim, those who had most to lose by your claim running in
the courts, were still in direct power.

>And so although a good experience, that may not have been the wisest
time to bring your claim - as in, today might have much better chance
of success for you.

>This is my assumptive hope...

I believe I will eventually get what amounts to 'justice'.   AP?


>If you do deign to launch your claim at this time, and you have any
questions at all, feel free to send me any question at all either on
or off list - some I can answer, but only generally (Australian
jurisdiction here, and IANAL).

and has some knowledge (even just on legal process) who may be
willing to assist you.

Well, the lawsuit I wrote in 2003 should have been plenty...
