I was forced from my residence in August 2003 by local drug gangs looking to expand their territory.I have been a victim of these continued criminal assaults since then.
The area of San Francisco I lived in, the Castro, has been noted for its light drug activity, mostly dealt by young, white males (age 19-24) to the gay night-clubbing community. I knew many -- if not all -- of the major players/dealers/distributors that lived in that neighborhood.
Let me be perfectly clear: I was never a drug dealer. This is why I was targeted.
I had a lot of information on their organization -- which included drug distribution, money laundering, counterfeiting, racketeering, identity theft and police corruption -- yet remained only a peripheral member. It must have been decided then that I was a threat.
First year tactics (2003) included repeated break-ins, nightly street theater and overt, physical surveillance, all meant to intimidate and harass.
The overt surveillance progressed into covert electronic harassment that includes a list of what most first-year victims experience:
- aural hallucinations: faint voices, conversations, and suspicious neighbor movements
- visual hallucinations: insubstantial, shadowy flickers and flashes of light
- break-ins, thefts, and vandalism
- feelings of being watched, movements in house recorded
- feeling that house and communications were bugged
- unusual and odd encounters with suspicious characters, street theater
- overhearing personal information in others' conversations
- whisper campaigns meant to discredit and isolate
- workplace mobbing
- financial, employment and social loss
- local law enforcement generally unhelpful
Basically I was made to think persons were plotting physical assaults against me outside my window; that my neighbors were given false reports about me and were enlisted to watch and record my actions; and that break-ins, including forgotten physical assaults, rapes and thefts, were frequent.
I talked with Jennifer C., a neighbor and big player in the Castro drug ring. She told me to keep the apartment and move in with her and her boyfriend, Jarrod D. (Jarrod was a drug dealer who dealt mostly with club promoters. He struck deals to get drugs into the clubs with the owners' complicity, past security and police checks.) She told me to rent a room from them and they in turn would use my apartment for "whatever" (drug dealing) of which they would pay the $1,100 per month rent in cash.
Obviously this didn't make sense, having two living spaces and boarding with drug dealers, so I refused. Jennifer then launched into a "you'll be driven out of town and you'll be sorry" story, and it was then I realized she, Jarrod and a gang of criminals were responsible for my initial harassment.
(If anyone is familiar with Jennifer ("Crazy Jen"), Jarrod, Frosty, Allen B., Nathan V., Dr. R. Stephen Ellis, Michael H., or other members of this group, email me and I'll send a photo for verification. I'm especially interested in hearing from others of the group who have been victimized.)
From there followed a bizarre two years that included:
1. Work crews digging holes into all of the neighborhood garages
2. A woman, introducing herself as working "public relations
for the government," jumping out of a car to take photographs of my vehicle
3. My place of employment being referred to as "my daycare" by local mafioso businessmen
4. Living with roommates who turned out to be cocaine and marijuana dealers
5. Constantly meeting persons who worked in the entertainment industry ("filmmakers", "screenwriters", "actors", "directors" -- all catchy metaphors for surveillance occupations)
6. Many occurrences of lost time, of half-remembering events, and memory erasureI have since been forced from San Francisco and reside in the midwest. The harassment has continued here, with whisper campaigns tie-ing me to alleged drug use and constant physical and mental assaults meant to isolate me and degrade my health.
When talking to the FBI, I metaphorically described the voices-phenomenon as due to recent "dental work" that resulted in my hearing the "police band" when I "moved my head to the right."
(I have since found most people like to talk in this euphemistic manner.)
The agent replied, "Perhaps they're trying to recruit you."
I think most FBI are aware of the covert communication and its misuse.
I talked with the Secret Service to report a credible, overheard threat that was made to our president. They decided there was no threat.
I think they too, are aware of the misuse of covert communication.
Finally, both Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests to the FBI and CIA turned up negative: according to the return letters, there exists no file on me, or at least, efforts to retrieve one had failed.
I think many organizations are aware of this criminal use of covert communication. None do anything about it.
A friend and supporter had gotten it right: this type of terrorization is American-culture specific. That is, this targeted weapons system was built especially for terrorizing Americans. Imagine.
