Dr. Harr's Struggle to Obtain Subpoenas Needed to Clear Crystal Mangum of Murdering Her Boyfriend

Nifong Supporter said...: HEY, EVERYBODY... LISTEN UP!!
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!

First, Adonis and I would like to wish commenters, visitors, and all of your families a fab year in 2025. May the new year find you all happy and in good health throughout '25.

This should be the year that Crystal Mangum is finally freed from prison, although the State is trying desperately to hold her until she serves her minimum sentence so she can then be released with the state, courts, and media refusing to revisit her post-release claims of injustice as being moot.

If I am allowed subpoenas, as are most defendants, then I am sure that I will prevail at the upcoming January 16, 2025 hearing. In the event the subpoenas are substantially delayed, I may seek to have an extension for the date of the hearing.

As you were.; January 1, 2025 at 8:57 AM
Marina Lemmons said...: Dr. Harr:

I believe that you misunderstand the scope of the January 16 hearing. The sole subject of the hearing is whether or not you violated the February 18, 2013 court order prohibiting you from providing legal assistance to Ms. Mangum. You readily concede that you provided legal assistance in violation of the order.

I do not believe that the hearing will allow you an opportunity to explain WHY you felt justified in violating the court order. Your requests to subpoena Dr. Pascarella and Dr. Zani will be rejected because they do not pertain to the issue to be addressed in the hearing. .

The legal assistance you have provided to Ms. Mangum over more than ten years provides significant support for the rationale for prohibiting non-lawyers from providing legal assistance.

Incredibly, you have ignored (and continue to ignore) the critical legal question raised in this case--the question of whether or not Ms. Mangum's legal liability for Mr. Daye's death was severed by an intervening cause. Even when the state has raised the issues in Welch in their filings, you consistently ignored this issue.

Dr. Nicholls and Dr. Roberts both reached the opinion that there was no intervening cause and therefore Ms. Mangum remained legally liable for Mr. Daye's death. That is the reason NC Prisoner Legal Services and the NC Innocence Inquiry Commission declined to take her case. The facts of Mr. Daye's medical treatment, including the esophageal intubation, could not overcome the expert opinions that there was no intervening cause.

Dr. Wecht's report reached a different conclusion; namely, that the onset of delirium tremens resulting from DUMC's errors in treating Mr. Daye's acute alcohol intoxication was an intervening cause that severed Ms. Mangum's legal liability for Mr. Daye's death. However, you misstate Dr. Wecht's conclusion, preferring to emphasize his conclusion that the death was the result of an accident. While that is true, Ms. Mangum would nevertheless remain legally liable if there had not been an intervening cause.

More importantly, you misstate the importance of Dr. Wecht's conclusion. DR. WECHT'S CONCLUSION IS AN OPINION. AN OPINION IS NOT EVIDENCE THAT EXONERATES MS. MANGUM. You recognized the limitations of an opinion when you dismissed AG Cooper's opinion that the lacrosse defendants were innocent of sexually assaulting Ms. Mangum. You cannot dismiss an opinion with which you disagree as irrelevant and maintain an opinion with which you agree is legally binding.

You should have used Dr. Wecht's report as an opportunity to reengage with counsel. You now had an expert opinion that there was an intervening cause that severed Ms. Mangum's legal liability. You should have relied on a legal expert to identify case law that addressed the legal questions: (1) does the onset of delirium tremens (or another preexisting condition) constitute an intervening cause and (2) on what basis can a subsequent opinion be used to challenge a conviction.

I suggested to kenhyderal more than four years ago that he use his research skills to address those questions. He did nothing.

Frankly, you should recognize that kenhyderal is a troll. Much like Break the Conspiracy several years ago, he pretends to support everything you have done. He makes no suggestions of how you could make your appeal more effective.; January 1, 2025 at 10:57 AM
Anonymous said...: Kenny, since it was posted under the other post it will get missed, but how do you feel about Crystal being a proven liar? You keep talking about how honest she is, yet we know for a fact that she lied. It's unclear if she was lying about the original sexual assault, or if she is lying about the recantation, but it is clear she is lying.

Why should anyone trust anything she has to say now?; January 1, 2025 at 12:38 PM
kenhyderal said...: @ Marina 1-1-25 10:57==== No pretense on my part. I have absolutely no legal qualifications and I do not know how Dr. Harr could have been more effective. As has been shown, over and over, by Dr. Harr's efforts, something any objective person can clearly see, the fix is in by the NC Justice System and they use every means available to run-out the clock, hoping that their malfeasance, in denying Justice to an innocent person, will be forgotten once her sentence is over. I suspect that even if she had a Lawyer they woild have delivered the same decisions. A question I've asked you before. are you a Lawyer? Trolls abound here and are present in every thread.; January 1, 2025 at 4:59 PM

How would any subpoena show that you are not practicing law without a license?

I agree with Marina Lemmons that your motion will be rejected. It has nothing to do with the order to show cause.; January 2, 2025 at 7:06 AM
Marina Lemmons said...: kenhyderal:

Your January 1, 2025 at 3:41 PM comment on the prior thread confirms that you are one of those "making sport of a serious issue being discussed.” Thank you for your clarity.

Your January 1, 2025 at 3:50 PM comment on the prior thread is unclear. I do not see in his report where Dr. Wecht opined that anyone who disagreed with his conclusion (that the onset of delirium tremens was an intervening cause) could only be acting in bad faith. Can you point out the relevant language? Thanks.; January 2, 2025 at 8:59 AM
Nifong Supporter said...: Hey, Marina Lemmons.

Yes, I did technically violate the injunction, but the reason why I did is extremely important. The reason specifically being is that the State failed to provide Ms. Mangum with legal counsel to which she was entitled. The NC Prisoner Legal Services did nothing for her and then abandoned her as a client on January 17, 2017. The NC Innocence Inquiry Commission, another state agency, refused to take Mangum as a client with four different executive directors refusing to meet or communicate with me about Crystal's innocence. If the state would have effectively represented Ms. Mangum she would have been found not guilty or the conviction would have been vacated and I would never have gotten involved... ergo, it is the State's fault that I was forced to violate the injunction.

With regards to credibility, I would take what Dr. Wecht said over the opinions of Dr. Nichols, Dr. Roberts, and Dr. Aurelius. Besides being both a physician and attorney and having the respect of his peers around the world, Dr. Wecht's integrity is beyond reproach. Dr. Nichols, whose autopsy report you apparently believe to be accurate, committed material perjury, was fired from his job, was being considered for criminal investigation for his professional work in other cases, and was refused reinstatement after the criminal investigation was dropped, has Erdmann-esque level integrity, and like notorious Texas medical examiner Dr. Ralph Erdmann has a penchant for producing made-to-order autopsy reports to favor police and prosecutors at the expense of many innocents... mostly people of color.

The challenge I have for you, Ms. Lemmons, is to identify the "complication" from the stab wound that was responsible for Daye's death. No one else can.

Finally, I wish you and your family a fab 2025 and hope your year is full of happiness and good health.; January 2, 2025 at 9:56 AM
Marina Lemmons said...: Dr. Harr asks: "The challenge I have for you, Ms. Lemmons, is to identify the "complication" from the stab wound that was responsible for Daye's death. No one else can."

I did that on the earlier thread. You posted my explanation.; January 2, 2025 at 10:42 AM
dhall said...: Dr. Harr -- The NCIIC cannot accept claims from a family member, friend, acquaintance, or neighbor. They tell you that on their website. The appropriate action was for you to provide their contact information to Ms. Mangum and have HER contact them.
Did you do that? Did she contact them?; January 2, 2025 at 11:10 AM
Marina Lemmons said...: Dr. Harr speculates:

"Dr. Nichols, whose autopsy report you apparently believe to be accurate,"

I have never stated that I believe the autopsy to be accurate. On what basis do you make this claim?; January 2, 2025 at 12:27 PM
Marina Lemmons said...: In this post, I am responding again to Dr. Harr’s challenge to identify the “complications from a stab wound to the chest” referred to by the state. I responded to his challenge earlier.

Crystal Mangum stabbed Reginald Daye on April 3, 2011. The stab wound was treated within hours of the incident. The initial postoperative prognosis was for a full recovery. However, Mr. Daye, a chronic alcoholic, suffered delirium tremens on the fourth day of his hospitalization. Medical staff, in treating this condition, errantly intubated him in his esophagus instead of his trachea. The lack of oxygen from the inerrant intubation resulted in a subsequent brain-death comatose state. Following ten days of observation without improvement, Mr. Daye was removed from life support and died within hours.

The state disagrees with Dr. Wecht and Dr. Harr as to the applicable law and has adopted the legal position that the onset of delirium tremens is not an intervening cause that severs Ms. Mangum’s liability for Mr. Daye’s death. In support of this legal position, the state cites cases including Welch and Holsclaw.

Under this legal position, all of the medical treatment received by Mr. Daye at DUMC is due to “complications from a stab wound to the chest.” The state does not disagree with Dr. Harr’s description of the steps included in the medical treatment and summarized in the second paragraph of this post.

Based on this interpretation of the applicable law, Ms. Mangum is responsible for Mr. Daye’s death.; January 2, 2025 at 4:37 PM
dhall said...: Dr. Harr -- Perhaps you should add someone (or several people) as an admin in the case of your absence. I'm sure you have Kenhyderal's email address, so you can invite him. You have mine as well.; January 3, 2025 at 6:19 AM
kenhyderal said...: @ Marina 1-2-25 , 8:59 : You are playing semantics. Does anyone here really believe Dr. Wecht did not opine that Daye's chronic alcoholism and his impending D.T. s, as a result of the inadequate treastment of acute alcohol withdrawal, in an alcoholic patient. I suggest, both Welch and Holsclaw are imperfectly applied as suitable precidents for dismissing an interrvening cause in such a circumstance as Daye's accidental death. It was Dr. Wecht's opinion that his death was not a homicide . Crystal was convicted of murder because Nichols wrongly testified that he died as a direct complication of the stab wound, something easily provable to be false and not as a complication of his hospital admission for the wound treatment. In reality, it was a complication of the Hospital's actions , improperly treating his acute alcohol withdrawal. I feel confident any Judge , asked to rule on this, would concur with Dr. Wecht's opinion. As would any Jury presenterd with the facts, something that never happened in Crystal's trial, thanks to her inadequate, state appointed, legal representation. Please look again at Dr. Wecht's examples as to why your take and what you suggest is the position of the State is not medico-legally valid, especially when citing Welch and/or Holsclaw as a rationale.; January 3, 2025 at 9:47 AM
Marina Lemmons said...: kenhyderal:

Why are you wasting your time trying to persuade me? I do not control Ms. Mangum's fate.

You should be trying persuade the State of North Carolina. What are you doing to persuade them?; January 4, 2025 at 4:26 AM
Marina Lemmons said...: You should consider whether Dr. Harr's approach to this issue has been effective and whether it could be improved. As you know, he has limited his argument to a recitation of the treatment DUMC provided and Dr. Wecht's conclusion that the death was an accident. He has steadfastly avoided any discussion of Welch and other cases, even when the State has referenced it in its filings.

Do you think that it might be more effective to do what you are doing now? You are conceding that case law does exist, but arguing why it should not apply in this case. Dr. Harr has ignored case law altogether.

Why did you not suggest to Dr. Harr how his arguments might be improved? He could acknowledge the legal arguments that the State was making and then explain why the case law was improperly applied in this case.

Instead, you have encouraged him to rely exclusively on Dr. Wecht as his legal authority. Dr. Wecht is infallible. Any one who disagrees is acting in bad faith and is an asshole. Implying that your adversary is an asshole is not always the most effective form of persuasion.

Do you really believe Dr. Wecht is infallible and that his work should be accepted as true without discussion?; January 4, 2025 at 4:52 AM

Marina Lemmons said...: Kenhyderal: "Nichols wrongly testified that he died as a direct complication of the stab wound"

I have not gone back to listen to his testimony, but I understood that Nichols testified that he died as a complication of the stab wound, not specifying whether it was "direct" as you allege or was indirect. The broad interpretation of Welch that the State appears to have adopted does not require that the complication be direct.

Is my understanding incorrect, or did you misstate Dr. Nichols' conclusion?; January 4, 2025 at 8:53 AM
Marina Lemmons said...: kenhyderal: "Please look again at Dr. Wecht's examples"

I found only one example in his report. He described a terminal cancer patient expected to die in the next week who was killed in an automobile accident on his way to the hospital for treatment. Are there others I missed?

I found this example to be extraordinary weak and not at all on point with the facts in this case.

I agree with your comments that the facts outlined in Welch are sufficiently different from the facts relating to Mr. Daye's death to raise valid questions about its applicability, but I find Dr. Wecht's example to be even further removed.

I assume that you were overly eager in your attempt to support Dr. Wecht's opinion and did not recognize the apparent hypocrisy in your conflicting reactions. Is that correct?; January 4, 2025 at 9:32 AM

dhall said...: Any legal argument presented in court must be based on established legal principles (i.e. existing case law). This is why Welch was so important to the Mangum prosecutors.

As it stands today, Mangum has neither corresponding case law to support her argument, nor does she have competent legal representation.

It's obvious that neither Dr. Harr or Kenhyderal can or will provide either.; January 4, 2025 at 11:37 AM
kenhyderal said...: dhall said "Any legal argument presented in court must be based on established legal principles (i.e. existing case law). "----- Or , in Crystal's case by a reasoned judicial rulling based on the unique circumstances of her case , established legal statutes defining immdiate legal cause of death, being a consequence of all factors leading up to it , in an unbroken sequance and of course by common sense. The question, is admission to hospital of an alcoholic at risk of alcohol withdrawal, in legal terms, a legal contributing cause. Once again, bear with me; my example, if a beligerrant alcoholic accosts me and I push him away, causing him to stumble, fall and fracture his ankle and who then, after having his ankle set in Hospital, suffers acute alcohol withdrawal and medical malpractice in the treatment of hs impending D.T. s kills him, am I guilty of murder?; January 4, 2025 at 3:27 PM

Kenhyderal, if the best you can do is provide a make-believe scenario to support your argument, you've lost the argument.

Unless and until either you or Dr. Harr actually do research and can provide case law that supports Crystal Mangum, any argument (even one that contains Dr. Wecht's "infallible" opinion") will fail.

FWIW, I tried to find case law supporting Mangum's position. I won't provide how I did this research, as that might be considered "acts or activities constituting the practice of law in North Carolina...", but it CAN EASILY be done.

That neither of you have bothered to do so is unfortunate for Crystal Mangum.; January 5, 2025 at 9:24 AM

If I recall you were here when Kilgo, a Crystal defender, was probably the most prolifiic poster here with a history of many hundreds of posts, almost daily, claiming he knew a person who witnessed the sexual assault of Crystal. Then he went to the trouble of deleting years of posts, at a time when they had to be done one at a time. He also changed his e-mail account and cancelled his google account. Scared off or bought off , I can only speculate. He did make a generous donation to Crystal's bail fund and when a bail-bondsman posted Crystal's bail as a gesture of goodwill, the funds raised, in trust, though a Raleigh Lawyer Mark Simeon, were refunded to the donors. In Kilgo's case he asked that the money go not to him but to Crystal.; January 5, 2025 at 11:31 AM

HEY, EVERYBODY... LISTEN UP!
IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!!

I will write a cashier's check in the amount of one hundred-fifty dollars ($150.00) and send it to any commenter who can explain, to my satisfaction, the specific complication(s) from the stab wound Reginald Daye sustained and/or its treatment that led to his death. The explanation must contain facts of the case.

Keep in mind that my assessment, buttressed with agreement by Dr. Cyril H. Wecht, is that no complication(s) resulted from the wound Ms. Mangum inflicted or its treatment. That it was the errant esophageal tube placement in treating Mr. Daye's delirium tremens which led to his brain-death/comatose state and subsequent removal from life-support and his actual death.

This contest is open to all individuals aged 18 and over.

As you were.

The winning answer:

Anonymous

Sidney, you keep asking "What complications?" From Dr. Aurelius's affidavit it is quite clear. Mr. Daye's complications were alcohol withdrawal caused by him having to be hospitalized because Mangum stabbed him. You may try to say this is a totally different problem not tied to the stab wound, but it is not. Dr. Wecht's analogy in his report, stated that someone with terminal cancer on the way to treatment dies in a car accident and thus the accident caused that person's death not the cancer. This analogy is quite weak in my opinion and does not relate to Mr. Daye's death in any way. Mr. Daye died because a chain of events happened to him after being stabbed and admitted to the hospital. I believe that if you would have just let the legal representation Mangum had after her trial continue, without your intervention, then she might be freed or at least a reduced sentence. You could have started your mucking around after all her legal attempts failed with a real lawyer. But Mangum and you for some reason did not let that happen and thus all is lost. But you got great satisfaction from filing many lawsuits that were destined to fail.

I recall winning the "lab test" bet from Kenhyderal, (oddly enough, Kenhyderal sent the money to Dr. Harr, rather than contacting me and getting my address).

IIRC, Dr. Harr did NOT show me anything from Western Union -- rather he showed me what I think was a deposit slip with his (Dr. Harr's) name on it.

I can only assume that Dr. Harr did not show me the Western Union payment because (if there was one), it would have contained Kenhderal's real name.

For anyone interested, I told Dr. Harr to place the money into Crystal Mangum's prison account (JPay? Something like that). I never received confirmation that the money was deposited for her, but I trust Dr. Harr.; January 6, 2025 at 6:41 AM

I told Sidney at least 10 years ago that his actions opens him to counts of practicing law without a license. I also explained to him WHY he lost the original Feb 2013 hearing when the court entered that judgment and injunction.

To the purpose of my comment:

Sidney -- Show Cause hearings are very evidentiary based.
The plaintiff must be able to show the judge the ways in which the opposing party (that would be you) has not complied with the order currently in place (the permanent injunction enjoining you from activities constituting the practice of law in North Carolina).
The defendant (that would be you) must show the judge that the defendant has complied with the current order in place.

You've admitted here that you've knowingly violated the permanent injunction. All the plaintiff has to do is quote you.

I said in 2013 and I'll state it again. There's no reason to hear oral arguments on your behalf once you've admitted your guilt.; January 6, 2025 at 9:30 AM

B.T. W. it defies common sense to suggest Daye's chronic alcoholism was a complication of the stab wound . Her Court appointed Lawyers adamantly refuse to raise the issue of Daye's death being an accident due to probable medical malpractice. It took an investigation by Dr. Harr to bring that to light. The appointed Lawyers conducted no investigations. Thanks to Dr. Harr now everyone knows that Crystal did not murder Daye. Even you.

I think we can agree that the latest motion by Dr. Harr actually reinforces the plaintiff's argument that he is violating the 2013 order/injunction. In this motion, he states he is seeking subpoenas from the 2 physicians in the Harr et al v. Deberry case.; January 7, 2025 at 7:38 AM

Dr. Harr can try to identify case law that supports his view that a person subject to a court order and injunction has right to make the unilateral decision that they are justified in violating that court order and injunction. I expect that to be a challenging search.; January 7, 2025 at 10:34 AM

It is my opinion that If Dr. Harr had not provided Crystal Mangum with unauthorized legal assistance (or posted attorney-client privileged information to this blog), both of them would be in a better place right now.

Dr. Harr would have never received the permanent injunction, and he would not be facing the upcoming Jan 16th hearing.

Suggesting I'm probably a troll because I reminded Tyrone, who, I believe, was here at the time, of the past history of the poster called "The Great Kilgo", who, believe it or not, was also a serious poster. Mostly, there was nothing inane about his participation, other than he did, often, resort to denouncing The Duke Lacrosse Players in crude terms. At the time of a fund raising effort for Crystal's bail he did communicate to me directly. Out of an abundance of caution, I no longer do that, since I saw evidence then indications that people ?? in North Carolina were trying to investigate me. This is why I now direct any personal contact, from poster here, through Dr. Harr.; January 7, 2025 at 2:12 PM

IF the summons was delivered by the sheriff's department or an authorized person, A "return of service" is filed by the court clerk.
IF Dr. Harr sent the summons via certified mail, He's supposed to prepare a notarized Affidavit of Service and file that with the county clerk.

I don't see any record of either being done here.

I doubt you'll respond, but as you have been told, the purpose of this hearing is for you to show why you shouldn't be held in contempt of court for violating the 2013 court order/ permanent injunction.

Since I am posting this comment, you can correctly assume that I was not taken into custody. That was a minor, and possibly temporary victory, as the court will resume with the case, including closing arguments, tomorrow morning at 9:30 a.m. or shortly thereafter.

As was predicted by many commenters (and I knew to be a strong possibility) I was severely handicapped by a ruling against me with the judge granting the Motion in Limine by the plaintiffs. So it was difficult for me to even mention Daye's death without being in contempt at the contempt hearing. Naturally, I would have appreciated a little more flexibility, but that was not in the cards. Tomorrow morning the hearing will conclude with closing arguments.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!!

Yesterday, Sunday, February 16, 2025, a little before noon, I was released from the Wake County Hoosegow after serving a thirty-day sentence imposed by Wake County Superior Court Judge Clayton D. Somers. Note that he also gave me the maximum fine of $500.00.

While incarcerated, I did receive on February 13th legal mail which included the State's Motion for Extended Time to File a Response which was filed on February 4th. You will notice that it took exactly two months for the Durham Sheriff's Department to serve the Summons and Complaint on D.A. Satana Deberry whose office is seven floors above in the same building.

LINK to Motion with notations.

(NOTE: If anyone can provide me with a logical reason for the two-month delay in service of the Summons and Complaint on Deberry, he/she will be awarded $50.00.)

As many of you astute j4n commenters may be aware, the so-called "criminal contempt conviction for violation of a 2013 permanent injunction against unauthorized practice of law," was mainly a pretext upon which to incapacitate me by making me unavailable to be a witness at Ms. Mangum's Petition for Judicial Review hearing which was held in Wake County Superior Court on January 27, 2025.

Time permitting, I will discuss my jailhouse experiences later, but there is much I have to do to catch up for a month's inaction. Before I address other issues, I will respond to many of comments above made during my blog site absence.

Have a fab President's Day.

The true relevance of the January 17, 2025 Harr et al v. Deberry Show Cause order by Judge Clayton D. Somers in Mangum's Petition for Judicial Review, is that it provides motive for the Wake County Superior Court to hold its January 27th hearing ten days later in which I would not be able to attend as a witness for Mangum. Make no mistake, the Show Cause Order was not about unauthorized practice, but rather a pretense upon which to prevent Mangum from prevailing in the petition for judicial review.; February 17, 2025 at 5:53 AM

Wrong on the second count as the Harr, Mangum v. Satana Deberry lawsuit in Federal Court is in full swing.
And wrong on the final count as a gatekeeper order was placed on neither Ms. Mangum nor me.

Keep in mind that the purpose of the contempt charge with its 30-day sentence was a pretext to prevent me from being able to participate at the January 27th hearing as a witness for Ms. Mangum.

So, now it is time for me to start making lemonade.; February 17, 2025 at 6:35 AM

That's a rather ridiculous statement, as you have admitted on this blog that your actions were (and have been) in violation of the permanent injunction. it's not "so-called" when it's true.

With regards to the delay, DA Deberry can't explain why it took 2 months to serve her with the summons and complaint.

MOO, the sheriff's department prioritizes summons with domestic violence and child custody cases getting priority, and while YOU think this should've been done quicker, the sheriff's office gave it a much lower priority.
If you didn't file so many frivolous lolsuits, this probably wouldn't be the case.; February 17, 2025 at 10:27 AM

You were warned in 2013 that future violations would result in sanctions. You were warned again in Mangum v. Aurelius .
Mangum v. Oxygen Media made it clear that your "...improper, unauthorized legal assistance to Mangum in this case in seeming violation of an injunction against doing so shows [your] deep-seated disrespect for the law and the judicial system."

Your actions have consequences and you are the only one responsible for your actions. Next time, prepare for those consequences before you act.; February 17, 2025 at 12:11 PM
