Dr. Harr -- Since you're not a lawyer, the only "help" you should have provided is limited to correcting grammar, spelling and such. Writing, filing (and in some instances according to you here on this blog, signing Crystal Mangum's signature) should have had your motions thrown out. Consider yourself lucky the courts let this go on as long as they did. They shouldn't have.
You've complained about the various legal agencies, but all you and Crystal Mangum have done is file civil lawsuits. As the judge correctly points out, the court does NOT appoint attorneys in civil cases -- I imagine (although I'm not an expert) that the various free legal defenses will not spend time on civil cases, either.
Quite frankly, there's too many details you've identified here that are either gross misrepresentations or flat out lies to go into -- they've all been addressed at some point in your blog, so I'm not going to go into detail. Simply read the comments on each blog entry.
"Mangum has filed several motions for appropriate relief, asking the Durham County Superior Court to reconsider the hospital records as proof of medical malpractice. "
See Walt's numerous comments on past blog entries where he's made clear that medical malpractice is not an intervening cause.
Crystal Mangum's daughter, Arianna Torelli: “I wish she [Crystal Mangum] had a proper attorney,”
As do I, Ms. Torelli.
"Crystal Mangum still fights to convince both the courts and the public that she’s an innocent woman."
While she may be (and I think she is) not guilty of killing Reginald Daye, she did stab him -- and not in self defense. In that regard, she's not "innocent" -- just guilty of a lesser crime that what she was convicted for.
As you may be aware, in January 2017, Ms. Mangum was abandoned by the NC Prisoner Legal Services as a client. The State's NC Innocence Inquiry Commission refused to communicate with me about the truths of Mangum's innocence. Also, the overriding reason the Show Cause Order was issued by Judge Clayton D. Somers, who had no standing in the case, was to assure that I would be in jail during the Judicial Review hearing held on January 27, 2025.
Also, Ms. Mangum filed numerous motions in criminal court, including six Motions for Appropriate Relief. Whether pro bono or not, why do you believe defense attorneys will not represent Ms. Mangum? To this day I continue to try and get an attorney, but without success.
Regarding the veracity of my blogs, I ask that you present one of the most egregious misrepresentations or flat out lies. Due to my access to prosecution discovery, I am able to support all assertations of facts.
You, Crystal's daughter, Crystal, and I are all in agreement that she had a Bar-accredited attorney to represent her. She even requested one in her civil hearing. The fact is that I have been unsuccessful in retaining an attorney for her. I've tried. What more can I do? Can you suggest a referral?
Also, keep in mind that the instrument of Daye's death was an endotracheal tube and not a steak knife.
With regards to the stabbing, there's no doubt in my mind that she did so in self-defense... that he was in a jealous/alcoholic intoxicated-fueled rage and was straddled atop strangling her when she poked him in his left side with a steak knife. She was not guilt of a lesser crime. However, you neglect to mention the crimes of perjury by Dr. Clay Nichols and his fraudulent official document (autopsy report).
I've had several secret projects in the past, but the podcast, which developed rather quickly, was not one of them. This news article was one which I kept secret for fear of the powers-that-be managing to quash it. The media, as you probably know, are quite susceptible to be intimidated with their reporting.
The various institutions refused to communicate with because YOU ARE NOT THE ACCUSED. YOU filed numerous motions in court -- including those Crystal Mangum was unaware of. Finally -- The comments are what they are. Here's a flat out lie: Felony Murder. Most of your assertations are only supported by your opinion. Read your own blogs. Read the responses posted by real lawyers.
Crystal Mangum cannot find a lawyer because of you. Your actions lead to her losing at least 2 lawyers. Following her conviction, your actions and ridiculous requests (you want you/Mangum to be "co-counsel", you want to testify, you encourage Crystal Mangum not to communicate to any potential lawyers without your input) have left her in this situation.
Here's what needed to happen: You needed to "shut your mouth and know your role". And your role is...Nothing. You had nothing to bring to Mangum's murder trial except vitriol towards judges/lawyers and your opinions rather than facts.
We agree that Crystal Mangum isn't guilty of killing Mr. Daye. I have stated that numerous times.
While there may be no doubt in YOUR mind that she stabbed him in self-defense, evidence (including blood splatter, locations of Daye's wounds, and the defensive injuries Daye occurred) prove otherwise.
WRT Dr. Nichols, as you have stated numerous times, it's not perjury if you believe it's true at the time.
Sid - it doesn't matter if you think it was self-defense - that was fully argued to the jury, and they rejected it, because they apparently believed that Daye had let her go, and she went into the kitchen to get a knife and come back - like she did with Morgan and why that testimony was so important - as opposed to stabbing while being choked.
Self defense was argued, and rejected by the jury. Your belief that they got it wrong doesn't matter.
I find the Facebook interface to be too complex... so I don't visit the site very often. With regards to the J4N website, I believe it was a Flash-based site, and was not as important as the blog site, so I put all attention on the blog site.
Since my disagreement with the Federal Court clerk more than a month ago, I've decided not to personally go to the building, and instead I file things by mail and ergo am not capable of accessing the docket immediately. I wait to hear from the court by USPS. So, I am unaware of what motions and documents about which you are referring.
Also, the current plaintiffs' motion was mailed on Saturday, May 3, 2025, and so it will probably arrive at the Federal Courthouse on Wednesday, May 7th.
I'm a senior citizen who believes that the state of North Carolina has harshly, excessively, and unjustly treated former Durham District Attorney Mike Nifong.

HEY, EVERYBODY... LISTEN UP!
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!!
Yesterday an excellent article was published on online Durham Voice. LINK: Durham Voice article about Crystal Mangum.
I believe it is, by far, the best article written about Ms. Mangum. Would appreciate your comments on it.
"Mangum has filed several motions for appropriate relief, asking the Durham County Superior Court to reconsider the hospital records as proof of medical malpractice. "
See Walt's numerous comments on past blog entries where he's made clear that medical malpractice is not an intervening cause.

You've clarified that the podcast you were on wasn't your "secret project", what was? Was it this article?

Motions submitted on Apr 30th in Harr et al v. Deberry. One regarding Sid's motion to compel and one regarding Deberry's earlier motion to dismiss.
I expect this lolsuit to be dismissed soon.
Sid - it doesn't matter if you think it was self-defense - that was fully argued to the jury, and they rejected it, because they apparently believed that Daye had let her go, and she went into the kitchen to get a knife and come back - like she did with Morgan and why that testimony was so important - as opposed to stabbing while being choked.

Why do you have a link to the J4N facebook page on your blog? It hasn’t been updated in 13 years.

You find Facebook too complex?
Try googling it.
