The Exoneration Of Ted White Jr.
66:14
The Exoneration Of Ted White Jr. Missouri
State Penitentiary, known as “The Walls,”
was built in 1836 and was the oldest prison
west of the Mississippi River before it was
condemned and closed permanently in 2004. In
1963, Time Magazine called “The Walls”
the bloodiest 47 acres in America when a
series of violent assaults made national
headlines. It has been reported that between
the years of 1963 and 1964, there were around
550 separate accounts of serious assaults,
including hundreds of stabbings. It was
“home” to infamous convicts like Stagger
Lee, Pretty Boy Floyd, Sonny Liston and James
Earl Ray. And it became home – for five
long years – to a wrongfully convicted man
named Ted White Jr. Wrongful convictions
occur every month, in every state in this
country, and the reasons are all varied and
all the same: bad police work, junk science,
faulty eyewitness identifications, bad
defense lawyers, lazy prosecutors, arrogant
prosecutors. Our criminal justice system is
supposed to err on the side of innocence,
sifting the clearly guilty from those less
obviously culpable. Imprisoning – or
condemning – the innocent exposes a host of
procedural defects in our criminal justice
system. Justice must be our eternal
aspiration, but we should greet skeptically
those who ever claim it’s been fully
achieved. /nTed White’s story is not a work
of lofty philosophy or jurisprudence. It is
his humble first-person story told in
everyday terms: of how injustice happened,
one blunder at a time, a nightmarish story of
being imprisoned for something he did not do.
No one knows better than the person
wrongfully imprisoned how unjust his
situation is. Even devoted loved ones and
dedicated lawyers can never have the same
certainty as Ted White, who knew absolutely
he was not guilty! And in the end, Ted
White’s account is an eyewitness testimony
to the epitome of human isolation: wronged,
separated from society and loved ones, and
trapped in an existence defined by what Ted
alone knows without a doubt to be a lie.
The Insider Exclusive presents a true
story, a story of final justice: The
Exoneration Of Ted White Jr. It’s a
testament to his resilience, his family and
his lawyers, Brian McCallister and Cyndy
Short of the McCallister Law Firm, who helped
him escape the prison cell where he did not
belong. Ted’s story is a reminder that
freedom is not merely a matter of
confinement, but also the chance to dwell
with the truth./nBrian F. McCallister is the
founder and owner of The McCallister Law
Firm, P.C. Since founding the law firm in
1996, Brian has dedicated his professional
life to the representation of individuals and
families in cases involving catastrophic
injury or death resulting from dangerous
products, semi tractor-trailer crashes,
automobile crashes and medical malpractice.
Having grown up as a ministers son and
grandson, Brian saw countless examples of his
familys sacrifice for and service to others.
This is the foundation on which his
professional life of service to others is
built. In every case, Brian seeks out close
personal relationships with his clients and
their families, giving him the ability to
advocate for his clients powerfully,
persuasively and passionately. His avocation
is singing and he is often asked to sing
solos for special occasions involving his
clients and their families. /nCyndy Short was
toiling away in a small labor law firm when
she was appointed to represent a young poor
woman accused by the federal government of
attempting to assassinate Jesse Jackson
during his 1988 presidential campaign. This
experience changed the course of her
practice, and she dedicated most of the next
15 years of her career to the representation
of poor people as a public defender in Kansas
City( first in the trial division, then in
the capital litigation division where she
served as head of that office for nearly a
decade). Her accomplishments have not gone
unnoticed. She received the Lon O. Hocker
Memorial Trial Lawyer Award in 1997, given
annually by the Missouri Bar in recognition
of outstanding trial work. She also received
the Defender of Distinction Award in 1998 for
her dedication to representing poor people
charged with serious crimes. That is the
highest honor given by the Missouri State
Public Defender. The Western Coalition to
Abolish the Death Penalty recognized her work
on the Dick Dexter case with their Courageous
Litigator Award. She also graduated from
Gerry Spences Trial Lawyers College in 1994.
Since 1997, she has been a TLC faculty member
trains lawyers and judges around the country.
Numerous people owe their freedom and their
lives to Cyndys dedication, compassion,
personal sacrifice, and skill as a trial
lawyer./nThe McCallister Law Firm is
comprised of a team of lawyers who provide
each client with professional counsel and
personal attention. The firm’s attorneys
actually mean it when they say they care
about each of their clients. These lawyers
are strong advocates for people both in and
out of the courtroom. Behind each case the
firm agrees to take on is a story and a
person. Since 1996, when the firm was
established, these attorneys have put their
clients first. By carefully selecting each
case, the firm’s lawyers can represent
clients that they truly believe in. An
important part of a lawyers job is not just
representing clients in court, but also
developing a personal connection with them.
And the attorneys at the McCallister Law Firm
develop relationships with clients that last
well beyond of a case. The firm is available
whenever a former client has a legal
concern./nYou can contact Brian McCallister

Trailer Truck Accidents.
9:50
On June 13, 2006, Elizabeth Libby Kellum, a
22-year-old Austin College graduate, was
driving on U.S. Highway 75 when she was
recklessly run over by an 80,000 lb.
tractor-trailer driven by an unqualified
driver. Libby miraculously survived. This is
her story from near death to her amazing
medical recovery and how her lawyers, Joel
Fineberg and Dean Gresham, took on Big
Business and their insurance companies to
fight for her justice in the case of Kellum
v. Allied Van Lines et al. When Libby took
evasive action to avoid a collision with a
tractor-trailer that swerved into her lane,
she was struck by another tractor-trailer.
The collision left her on the brink of death.
As a result of the accident, she now suffers
permanent brain injury. Libby's parents,
individually and on her behalf, sued the two
drivers and their respective employers,
alleging, among other claims, that the
employers failed to perform appropriate
background checks of the drivers-which would
have revealed numerous citations for driving
under the influence, reckless driving, and
speeding-failed to have appropriate policies,
procedures, and screening for the hiring and
retention of truck drivers; and allowed unfit
drivers to operate commercial tracks. The
drivers also allegedly failed to maintain a
proper lookout and failed to obey local,
state, and federal laws involving the
operation of a motor vehicle. You can contact

Construction Disasters – The Big Blue
Crane Collapse
22:10
Construction Disasters – The Big Blue Crane
Collapse Its been 11 years since Big Blue,
the gigantic 567-foot crane used to construct
the Milwaukee Brewers Miller Park Stadium,
came crashing down – killing three iron
workers while lifting a 9,000 sqaure foot
section of a retractable roof weighing almost
1 Million pounds. Today, for the first time
ever since that fateful day, July 14, 1999,
The Insider Exclusive takes a look back in
this exclusive special with a behind the
scenes story of the survivors and their
lawyer, Robert Habush, President and Senior
Partner of Habush Habush Rottier, S.C. We
will show you how he got justice for these
victims, three ironworkers, three husbands,
and three fathers: Jeff Wischer, Bill DeGrave
and Jerome Starr and their families. You will
see actual footage of how the crash happened,
as it happened, from video shot by a safety
inspector on the ground and how this twisted
wreckage of a massive construction crane
spilled over the crushed shell of the citys
newest landmark. The community rallied
around the project after the accident where a
lot of the little bickering became pretty
insignificant, The crash set the project back
just one year, as workers quickly set out to
repair the damage and complete the ballpark.
They did it in memory of the guys that had
fallen, and you cant ask for better than
that. In the end, the accident at Miller Park
has left a legacy of increased safety
awareness for crane operators and the
construction industry as a whole. In the
long process on the road to justice for these
victims, Robert Habush and his firm spent
over 15 months of discovery before the start
of trial on October 16, 2000. During trial
preparation 122 depositions were taken, and
over 150,000 pages of documents were
reviewed. After a 7 week trial, on December
1, 2000, the 16 member jury returned a
unanimous verdict in favor of the these
fallen heroes in the amount of $99,250,000 in
damages, $94 million of it in punitive
damages against Mitsubishi. The jury found
Mitsubishi 97% negligent and Lampson 3%
negligent. This is the single highest
verdict in the State of Wisconsin. Mitsubishi
appealed the verdict, but that verdict was
upheld at the Wisconsin Supreme Court level.
This case also set a precedent for punitive
damage law in the State of Wisconsin. A
memorial now stands near the entrance to
Miller Park to honor those who built the
ballpark and those who died there. Robert L.
Habush is a highly distinguished attorney and
a Fellow of the International Academy of
Trial Lawyers, where he served on the Board
of Directors. He is also a Fellow of the
International Society of Barristers and the
American Board of Professional Liability
Attorneys. He is a member of the Inner Circle
of Advocates. He is a Diplomat of the
American Board of Trial Advocates and was the
first President of the Wisconsin Chapter. He
has lectured before professional groups
throughout the country in the area of trial
practice. Robert has been named the recipient
of the AAJ Harry Philo Award and Champion of
Justice Award. The Wisconsin Association for
Justice has named its annual award to an
outstanding trial lawyer, The Robert L.
Habush Trial Lawyer of the Year Award. In
2001, for his victory in the Miller Park
crane collapse case, Robert was named one of
the top litigators in the United States. He
received his undergraduate degree and his
juris doctor from the University of
Wisconsin. Robert was Order of the Coif and a
member of the Law Review. Habush Habush

Dream Vacations Gone Bad – The Paul
Brunner and Doug Otte Story
22:5
A Big Game Hunting….. Dream Vacation…. to
the Arctic Circle in Canada went from heaven
to Disaster in one moment, …..On August 26,
2001. For Experienced big game bow
hunters, Paul Brunner from Montana and Doug
Otte from Nebraska…who were two of six
hunters on a musk ox expedition north of the
Arctic Circle in Nunavut, Canada. They went
on a trip to the Cambridge Bay area of
Nunavut Province, north of the Arctic Circle
that was sold to them in Canada North
provided the housing, food, a cook and other
provisions during this 10 day hunt for musk
ox. The two cabins in which the hunters
lived were made of plywood, and had neither a
fire extinguisher nor a fire ax……contrary
to Canadian law. The Coleman camp stove
provided by Canada North flamed fitfully each
time it was used…. and the storage of the
cooking fuel “naphtha” was not carefully
stored in red canisters. Sometimes it was
stored in containers marked “water”.
One of the hunters, Jerry Hampson from
Lancaster, Ohio, filled a pot with liquid
from an unmarked jug and placed it on the
Coleman stove to heat up bath water at the
end of the day. When Canada North’s cook
adjusted the flame on the stove…… Flames
flared and suddenly engulfed the pot which
quickly spread from the pot to other parts of
the cabin. Hampson grabbed a Red container
containing a clear liquid and dumped it on
the flames….thinking it was water! But,
INSTEAD, the liquid was naptha, which caused
an explosion and turned the cabin into an
inferno trapping Brunner, Hampson and Otte.
All three caught on fire and believed they
were going to die. Brunner, Otte and
Hampson were trapped inside… Otte, on
fire, escaped through a window after someone
outside through a rock smashing it. That
caused the door to open, and Brunner, also on
fire, crawled through the flames on his hands
and feet to safety.Tragically, Hampson died
from his injuries. Both Brunner and Otte
suffered horrible burns that left permanent
impairments.The case against Canada North was
brought in Ohio since it did business in
Ohio. Today The Insider Exclusive
presents “Dream Vacations Gone Bad – The
Paul Brunner and Doug Otte Story ……
And How their Lawyer, Bob Palmer @ the law
firm of ROBERT GRAY PALMER CO. LPA got
Justice for Paul and Doug and their
families… Litigating on behalf of
travelers who have been seriously injured in
exotic and distant locations can be
challenging…. indeed. Where and who, for
example, are the viable and liable defendants
in real life vacation disasters? The
marketing and sales of vacations involve
complex marketing systems which includes
suppliers, both domestic and foreign,
wholesalers and tour operators, travel agents
and informal travel promoters. Often the
negligence of a foreign supplier, i.e.,
hotel, para-sailing operator, horse or camel
stable, tour bus company, air carrier or
cruise ship, will be the primary cause of the
consumer's injury. Unfortunately such a
potential defendants may be irresponsible,
insolvent, uninsured or unavailable because
of a lack of jurisdiction or the U.S. forum
selected is deemed inconvenient. Assuming
availability… the potential defendant may
be insulated from liability, in whole or in
part, because of the application of foreign
law, enforceable disclaimers and releases,
the Warsaw Convention, U.S. federal and state
statutes limiting the liability of cruise
ships and hotels and tariffs limiting the
liability of carriers. Successful travel
litigation depends upon the selection of
viable defendants and the application of
modern liability theories. This INSIDER
EXCLUSIVE SPECIAL discusses the “Rights of
Americans” while traveling to exotic
locations and liability of tour operators and
air carriers for the tour participant's
injuries sustained in foreign destinations.
Foreign companies cannot solicit U.S.
Citizens for adventure trips and not be
responsible for their negligent operations on
those trips which result in serious,
deforming injuries to their U.S. customers.A
tour operator may be held liable for the
consumer's physical injuries if the tour
operator promised…. either expressly or
implicitly…. that the tour would be
delivered in a safe and careful manner.
• Brochure language such as " safe and
enjoyable cycling area ", " The tour
company’s administration and staff work
together to make your stay comfortable,
safe” … " suitable for handicapped
individuals ", " perfectly safe " canoeing
conditions and " safe buses " may generate
liability under a breach of warranty
theory. • Alternatively, the tour
operator may assume a duty to deliver safe
travel services. Assumed duties may more
readily overcome written disclaimers than a
warranty. • Escorted tours feature close
supervision and tour coordination provided by
professional tour guides. • Older
consumers and the parents of students
purchase escorted tours. Some sports' tours
provide instructors to train and supervise
the activities of the participants. • In
their brochures tour operators will promise
that " every tour will be escorted by a
qualified professional tour
director...carefully selected and
trained...informative…. they know precisely
what you will be seeing and doing...they've
been there before " and their " tour escort
was a professional and qualified to serve
travelers in all matters ". Consumers,
especially the parents of students, rely upon
promises of close supervision in purchasing
such a tour. Consumer injuries caused by the
negligence of the tour guide may support
claims against the tour operator for
negligent selection and supervision of tour
guides and misrepresentation of their
training, expertise and knowledge of the tour
locale. AND What happens after the
accident? Typically, the injured consumer
will be given assistance by the medical staff
of the foreign hotel, resort or tour
operator. If such medical services are
unavailable the consumer may be transported
to a recommended foreign doctor, infirmary or
hospital. The quality of medical care
rendered in foreign locales can exacerbate
existing injuries and expose the tour
operator to even greater liability.
Certainly, domestic carriers have a common
law duty to seek proper medical assistance
and maintain adequate medical equipment for
emergencies. Bob Palmer has earned the
highest respect from citizens and lawyers
alike…. as one of the best Trial lawyers in
Columbus…. In Ohio….. and in America. Bob
has built a substantial reputation nationwide
by consistently winning cases other law firms
have turned down. Bob is listed among Ohio's
top lawyers. He was cited in the publication,

TRUCKING DISASTERS – The Terry Donna
Fredericks Story
22:10
[b]TRUCKING DISASTERS – The Terry Donna
Fredericks Story[/b] In the dead of night on
March 16, 2006…..53 year old Terry
Frederick, of Overland Park, Kansas, was in
the sleeper berth of a Yellow Transportation
18 Wheeler ….driven by his co-driver,
Dennis Bottorff, driving along a dark
stretch of U.S. Highway 54 in New Mexico
…… As the Yellow truck passed a rest
area, a Swift truck, driven by Robyn Getchel,
was attempting to enter the rest area from
the wrong entrance …AND backed DIRECTLY
INTO THE HIGHWAY AND into the Yellow Truck.
The collision left Terry Frederick
partially paralyzed and killed his co-driver,
Dennis Bottorff instantly! The only
eyewitness to the accident was the driver of
the Swift truck. …. Robyn Getchel….who
steadfastly claimed it was the Yellow
Transportation Trucker’s fault. In this
Network TV Special, The Insider Exclusive TV
Producers clearly show how Terry
Frederick’s lawyer, Scott Nutter –
Partner @ Shamberg, Johnson Bergman proved
through diligent and expert legal work and
with the assistance of accident
reconstruction experts, that 1)Not only was
the only eyewitness, Robyn Getchel, lying
about the cause of the accident, but also 2)
that it was physically impossible for
Getchel’s version of the crash to have
happened according to her testimony. You
will also see how quickly some Corporations
attempt to quickly distance themselves from
their irresponsible employees, resting their
lame legal defenses on shoddy legal premises.
The Verdict…a $23.5 Million dollar
verdict for Terry Donna Frederick.
Unfortunately, Terry is permanently paralyzed
and Dennis Bottoroff died. You can contact

Motorcycle Accidents – The James
Anderson Story
28:20
Motorcycle Accidents – The James Anderson
Story Riding motorcycles under any
circumstances can be extremely dangerous, but
when careless drivers pull right out in front
of you the results can be catastrophic! And
that’s exactly what happened to James
Anderson and his nephew Steven Walter while
riding on a Wisconsin country road, on a
clear and warm summer day at approximately
1:30 pm on August 9, 2001.Theresa Boulanger,
driver of a GMC truck, illegally and without
warning made an sharp U-Turn from a roadside
parked position, causing James to smash into
the front fender of the truck, ejecting him
more than 100 feet through the air and
banging down the roadside and shoulder.
Wisconsin Accident Investigators later
determined that she was 100% at fault, for
failing to observe the approaching
motorcycles and turning directly into their
path. And, while James was undergoing
extensive medical treatment and his case was
progressing through the justice system, the
Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled on a law
indicating that if you’re not wearing a
helmet, (although there was no helmet law in
Wisconsin), it could prevent you from
recovering any legal damages. Jason Abraham,
Hupy & Abraham, S.C., came to James’s
rescue. Today, The Insider Exclusive will
show you how, Jason petitioned the Wisconsin
Legislature to get Justice for James, and how
he was successful in having the law changed
to allow him to get James the seven figure
recovery he deserved! Jason and former
Wisconsin State Senator Dave Zien, along with
James and his wife Tracy, will tell you how
they did it, what they were up against, and
most importantly, how they reversed
Wisconsin’s mandatory helmet law, and
passed Senate Bill 223. Jason Abraham began
his career with Hupy and Abraham, S.C., in
1993 and progressed to the position of
shareholder at the firm in 1999. He received
his undergraduate degree in psychology in
1989 from the University of Wisconsin,
followed by his juris doctor from Marquette
University Law School in 1992. He is admitted
to practice in the State of Wisconsin, along
with the United States District Courts for
the Eastern and Western Districts of
Wisconsin. He is also licensed to practice in
Missouri. He is a Certified Civil Trial
Specialists by the National Board of Trial
Advocacy, member of the State Bar of
Wisconsin, American Bar Association,
Association of Trial Lawyers of America, and
Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum. As a
result of his expertise regarding personal
injury matters, along with a significant
record of achievement in that venue, Jason
has lectured in numerous states regarding
personal injury issues. His proficiency in
that area has created a clientele consisting
of individuals from across the nation. Jason
has settled or tried over 110 million dollars
in personal injury cases and has had multiple
cases resolved for over a million
dollars. Hupy & Abraham, S.C. seeks to
give their clients the best possible
representation from the beginning of their
case to its conclusion. The firm goes above
and beyond the call of duty, pledging to keep
clients informed and to give each client
personal attention. Hupy & Abraham’s

In the Crosshairs of Justice –
Corporate “Dirty Tricks Exposed”
22:10
It’s almost Unbelievable…. James Bond…
Secret Agents…Corporate Spies, and
Government Agents are “alive and well” in
the Louisiana Heartlands….. spying on their
“Worst Enemies list”…. of Law Firms and
Environmental Advocate Groups who seek to
protect everyday ordinary Americans. You
would think that the motley collection of
crooks, thieves, con-men and bozos who
masquerade as leaders of Corporate America
would eventually learn the number-one lesson
of Justice. It isn’t the crime that gets
you….. It’s the cover-up. Don’t
these clowns ever learn? Are the lessons of
Watergate, and Iran-Contra beyond their
comprehension? For decades, southwestern
Louisiana’s upper estuary has been polluted
by untold quantities of toxic chemicals…..
many associated with the vinyl industry…..
a mainstay of the local economy.
Louisiana and Texas form the core of the
U.S. vinyl industry….. producing 94 percent
of the nation's ethylene dichloride And On
May 31, 1994, a barge was unloading
“Ethylene Dichloride” (EDC) at the Conoco
Refinery on the Calcasieu River when workers
detected a leak from an old underground
pipeline built way back in the 1940s. It
later was determined that the pipeline -
which carried EDC from the docks to the
Condea Vista chemical plant four miles away -
had been leaking for…. eight months.
And By the time the leak was
stopped….MILLIONS of pounds of EDC had
escaped…… Anywhere from 19 million to 47
million pounds of EDC…… which resulted

Unbelievable…. James Bond… Secret
Agents…Corporate Spies, and Government
Agents are “alive and well” in the
Louisiana Heartlands….. spying on their
“Worst Enemies list”…. of Law Firms and
Environmental Advocate Groups who seek to
protect everyday ordinary Americans. You
would think that the motley collection of
crooks, thieves, con-men and bozos who
masquerade as leaders of Corporate America
would eventually learn the number-one lesson
of Justice. It isn’t the crime that gets
you….. It’s the cover-up. Don’t
these clowns ever learn? Are the lessons of
Watergate, and Iran-Contra beyond their
comprehension? For decades, southwestern
Louisiana’s upper estuary has been polluted
by untold quantities of toxic chemicals…..
many associated with the vinyl industry…..
a mainstay of the local economy.
Louisiana and Texas form the core of the
U.S. vinyl industry….. producing 94 percent
of the nation's ethylene dichloride And On
May 31, 1994, a barge was unloading
“Ethylene Dichloride” (EDC) at the Conoco
Refinery on the Calcasieu River when workers
detected a leak from an old underground
pipeline built way back in the 1940s. It
later was determined that the pipeline -
which carried EDC from the docks to the
Condea Vista chemical plant four miles away -
had been leaking for…. eight months.
And By the time the leak was
stopped….MILLIONS of pounds of EDC had
escaped…… Anywhere from 19 million to 47
million pounds of EDC…… which resulted
in one of Southwest Louisiana’s worst
environmental disasters. It was one of
the biggest liquid chemical spills in the
country's history and another setback for an
already-weakened ecosystem. Facing
lawsuits and activist outcry… following
this massive chemical spill…. Condea Vista,

GOLF - Bob Betley Wins for All Americans
22:20
Golf Hall of Famer Bob Betley Wins for All
Americans On page one of “The Rules of
Golf: The Spirit of the Game" there is a
discussion about a player's responsibility to
abide by these rules. It’s the true spirit
of sportsmanship, stating: "All players shall
conduct themselves in a disciplined manner,
demonstrating courtesy and sportsmanship at
all times, irrespective of how competitive
they may be. This is the spirit of the game
of golf." Golf has been touted for centuries
as a "gentlemen's game," and, rightly so. For
Champion Hall of Famer, Bob Betley, “The
Spirit of the Golf Game” has exemplified
his entire professional career. And,
although Bob got a late start in playing the
game, he made up for it quickly, turning pro
just a couple of years after taking up the
game seriously. With his wife and caddie,
Jane, at his side, he won the Utah Open in
1979 and went on to win state open titles in
Colorado, Arizona, Nevada and Idaho, piling
up a more than 75 tournament victories and
over $1 million in career earnings along the
way. Bob's biggest win as a pro came when he
won the 1993 Bank of Boston Classic on the
Senior PGA Tour. He also finished second in
the Shootout at Jeremy Ranch, losing a
memorable 8-hole, sudden-death playoff to
former U.S. Open champ Orville Moody in the
Utah Senior Tour event. He was a
“gentleman” amongst gentlemen and on top
of his game – but then tragedy struck.
Bob was seriously and permanent injured
when his car was rear-ended by an
underinsured driver. As a result, he hasn't
been able to golf or enjoy one of his other
great talents, painting – primarily
wildlife oils and portraits – since then.
No more golf, no more travel, no more
painting. In an instant, Bob’s livelihood
and way of life ceased to exist. Despite the
trauma and hardship, he and his wife were
determined to soldier on. As hardworking,
responsible, and honest as ever, they thought
they could handle things themselves. They
filed a claim with their own auto insurance
company (a “first-party claim”) and
assumed they’d be treated fairly – just
like in the spirit of golf. But instead,
their insurance company didn’t abide by
that “gentleman’s” spirit of golf”
– no, they stalled. They repeatedly lost
paperwork, and wouldn’t even return phone
calls. So finally, Bob and Jane – Team
Betley – had had enough. They called
Siegfried & Jensen. Sadly, this is a scenario
that the attorneys at Siegfried & Jensen knew
all too well. They saw to it that the
insurance company did its job and compensated
Bob and Jane as required, but then they took
it a step further. Mitch Jensen, Founding
Partner at Siegfried & Jensen, and Utah State
Senator Steve Urquhart wrote and got passed
new state legislation protecting the rights
of individuals in “first-party” insurance
claims. In 2010, SB62 was signed into law in
Utah, mandating that insurance companies must
provide a written response within a
reasonable period of time. Additionally, all
uninsured or underinsured claims must be paid
immediately either for the amount of the
covered individual’s demand or the
carrier’s response. Today, the Insider
Exclusive shows how the law firm of Siegfried
& Jensen, the Utah Legislature and everyday
Americans like Bob and Jane Betley can make
the legal system work, protecting the rights
of individuals and promoting safety for
everyone. Mitch Jensen graduated from
Brigham Young University with a bachelor’s
degree in business in 1978. After completing
law school at Pepperdine University in 1981,
he became a member of the State Bars of
California and Utah. Along with Ned
Siegfried, Mitch co-founded what is now one
of the top personal injury law firms in the
Salt Lake City, Utah area, where he
specializes in personal injury auto
litigation, product liability, and
pharmaceutical injuries. Associating with
clients is the most rewarding aspect of
Mitch’s work, as he is inspired by people
who overcome significant trials and
challenges. He considers the greatest people
he knows to be his clients and the attorneys
and staff who help them fight to restore
their lives and families. In his spare time,
Mitch enjoys sports, outdoor activities,
spending time with his family, and
traveling. Siegfried & Jensen provides
top-notch legal services to residents of Salt
Lake City and throughout Utah. The firm’s
personal injury lawyers have the experience,
knowledge, and drive to achieve the just
compensation that victims of negligence
deserve for the hardships they must face. The
firm’s 16 skilled attorneys specialize in a
variety of fields to offer knowledgeable
legal advice and emotional support to injured
victims. You can contact Mitch Jensen at

“Police Brutality – The “Jody”
Mack Woodfox Story”
22:10
“Police Brutality – The “Jody” Mack
Woodfox Story” Police abuse
remains one of the most serious and divisive
human rights violations in the United States
today! The horrific images of Rodney King
being beat by the LAPD is one of the most
blatant reminders of police brutality against
innocent victims. The excessive use of
force by police officers,…. including
unjustified shootings,…. severe beatings,
……and fatal chokings, persists….
Because overwhelming barriers to
accountability make it possible for officers
who commit human rights violations to escape
due punishment ….and often to repeat their
offenses. Police or public officials greet
each new report of brutality with denials
…..or explain that the act was just an
aberration, ….while the administrative
and criminal systems that should deter these
abuses by holding officers accountable
instead… virtually guarantee them
impunity This Special INSIDER EXCLUSIVE
investigation discovered….. that police
brutality is persistent and rampant across
America….AND that systems to deal with
abuse have FAILED…. And that…..Victims
seeking redress face daunting obstacles at
every point in the process, ranging from
overt intimidation to the reluctance of local
and federal prosecutors to take on brutality
cases.…… of officers who have committed
these human rights violations. Despite
claims to the contrary…. from city
officials where abuses have become scandals
in the media….. efforts to make meaningful
reforms have fallen short. The barriers
to accountability are remarkably similar from
city to city. Shortcomings in recruitment,
training, and management are common to
all…… So is the fact that officers
who repeatedly commit human rights violations
tend to be a small minority…. who taint
entire police departments…. but are
protected routinely…..by the silence of
their fellow officers ……and by flawed
systems of reporting, oversight, and
accountability. Today, the Insider
Exclusive TV Series examines this epidemic in
this exclusive Special: “Police Brutality
– The “Jody” Mack Woodfox Story”
And how famed Oakland-based Civil
Rights Lawyers John Burris, Founder & Partner
of the Law Offices of John Burris…. got
Justice for Torry with a Record Breaking
Settlement AGAINST the City of Oakland…
You will see how John proved this case by
exposing the lies and the contradictions of
the various Oakland police officers…
As John has often said…..
“the problem of Police Brutality is much
more widespread than most Americans are
willing to admit. …….Our nation
practices….. a selective blindness…In
this great and strong nation, we have all
become unwitting accomplices to the
continuation of the conflict”. John has
earned the highest respect from citizens and
lawyers alike…. as one of the best Civil
Rights Trial lawyers in Oakland…. In
California….. and in the nation. He has
seen many innocent & hard-working people
become VICTIMS of the Police Brutality He
understands that Police brutality is one of
the most serious, enduring, and divisive
human rights violations in the United States.
The problem is not just in Oakland…BUT
nationwide….AND its nature is
institutionalized. AND BECAUSE OF
THAT…..He is driven to fight for people who
had been harmed by the willful or negligent
actions of others.. He…Learned A long
Time ago ….that “IF A MAN hasn’t
discovered something that he will die for…
He isn’t fit to live.” His goals…..
Not ONLY To get Justice for their
clients… BUT To make sure ALL Americans
have the right to a fair trial, honest cops,
impartial prosecutors, and fair judges with
NO AGENDAs… BECAUSE “INJUSTICE
ANYWHERE…..IS A THREAT TO JUSTICE
EVERYWHERE” !!! “AND Justice and
power must be brought together, so that
whatever is just …..may be powerful,
AND… whatever is powerful may be
just.”…. You can contact John Burris,

Ignored Safety - Dangerous Explosions -
Richard Jameson's Story
22:10
In this INSIDER EXCLUSIVE TV Special, we
“Go Behind The Headlines” in “Ignored
Safety – Dangerous Explosions –Richard
Jameson’s Story to examine how Bob
Palhlke, Ptr @ Robert Pahlke Law Group
successfully got justice for Richard Jameson
….. By proving how this horrific
Gas Explosion really happened… And more
importantly… How it could have been
prevented… Bob proved what was wrong
with the equipment….. He proved that the
manufacturers…. Liquid Controls’ and
Blackmer’s failures were on five specific
issues: • They failed to “design and
manufacture a safe product... • They
failed to test the product… • They
failed to know their customers… • They
failed to educate their
customers… • AND They failed to warn
their customers that…there is anything
“unsafe or potentially dangerous” about
their product.” More specifically …..
Liquid Controls failed to put a sufficiently
protective strainer on its meter… This
meant that particles that could clog the
meter and could get through the
“protective” strainer. But this case
faced some real legal challenges and hurdles
to overcome like… • It was impossible
to precisely replicate what happened
since….. never in the history of this meter
nor the pump manufacturer, had there ever
been a case such as this one; • The
defendants claimed their products are not
defective and this was not
foreseeable; • And defendants vigorously
argued… they are not the cause of the
fire. In this INSIDER EXCLUSIVE Special TV
Edition we show you that there are Five
Basic Responsibilities of every manufacturer
: 1. Design and manufacture a safe
product; 2. Test the product, in the lab and
out in the field where it is actually going
to be used; 3. Know your customers and how
they are going to use the
product; 4. Educate your customers on the
safe use of your product; and Most
Importantly… 5. Warn the customer if there
is anything unsafe or potentially
dangerous. Bob has earned a reputation as an
unyielding country lawyer who repeatedly
represents individuals and families against
large corporations….. And repeatedly
wins. And in Richard Jameson’s case….
Bob was able to successfully win an amazing
$5 Million dollar Judgment for Richard

citizens and lawyers alike…. as one of the
best Trial lawyers in Scotts Bluff…. In
Nebraska….. and across the
nation. He’s a Past President of

CASINO FOOD SAFETY – Julia Ellis’s
Nightmare Story
21:10
Harvey’s Lake Tahoe Hotel & Casino in
Stateline, Nevada receives thousands of
tourists from California.. Each year….
seeking fun … entertainment…and a shot at
winning big money! They love putting money at
risk. It can be sports betting, table games,
lotteries. They love to bet. They feel
alive…and get an adrenaline rush when they
play the games. And On December 2, 2007
Julia Ellis was a patron at Harvey's Lake
Tahoe Hotel and Casino. While on the
premises, Julia ordered a bottle of water
and was given a bottle marked “Harrah's
Purified Drinking Water.” Julia opened
the sealed bottle and drank. But instead of
plain ole drinking water in this bottle, it
contained Super Trump, a highly caustic
cleaning substance. The substance is
odorless and colorless and because Julia
drank a large swallow of the substance….it
resulted in second and third degree burns to
her esophagus and nearly killing
her! Super Trump…with an extreme high
“PH” level akin to Drano And …contains
“Sodium Hydroxide”. The Bottle was sent
to hazmat testing facility, and their report
showed that it was extremely dangerous, and
corrosive to one’s eyes, skin, and
respiratory track. Someone had poured this
Super Trump…. maliciously and
intentionally…in a Harrah’s Water
bottle….and that person was never
identified! And As a result of ingesting the
caustic substance, Julia sustained
• second and third degree burns to her
esophagus as well as liquefaction of the
mucosa. • The injury left her with a
severe stricture of the esophagus which
required dozens of physician-administered
dilation procedures, as well as several dozen
self-administered dilations.
• Following two years of dilations,
Julia’s esophagus remains approximately 60%
- 70% of what would be considered a normal
diameter for one’s esophagus. As a
result of having a compromised esophagus,
Julia has had and continues to have episodes
where food catches in her throat. Her diet is
limited largely to soft or otherwise pureed
foods. Following the incident, Julia was
diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
and continues to suffer. Today the
INSIDER EXCLUSIVE “Goes Behind The
Headlines” in CASINO FOOD SAFETY – Julia
Ellis Nightmare Story ….. to reveal for the
first time…. how the Julia’s
attorney….Chris Dolan @ the Dolan Law Firm,
successfully got justice for Julia… In
fact….On the first day of jury selection,
the Defendants admitted liability. “A
Harvey's employee had apparently poured the
solution from its large storage container
into an empty, unmarked Harrah's water bottle
and left it in the kitchen, where it was soon
thereafter served to Ellis” The trial
was held solely to determine the amount of
damages to be awarded. The jury deliberated
for ONLY two and a half hours before reaching
their verdict awarding Ellis damages. The
jury awarded Ellis $3.25 million for past and
future non-economic damages and $169,308 for
past medical expenses and lost income,
according to court records. The Lesson
Casinos and Hotels learned from this horrible
episode is that companies need to maintain
adequate food safety or they would be held
responsible for injuries that they caused.
This case definitely caused Harvey’s to
implement a beverage management safety and
control program and it established that
should Harvey’s harm a patron who was lured
to Nevada from San Francisco through
advertising they would be held responsible in
San Francisco. Chris Dolan has earned the
highest respect from citizens and lawyers
alike…. as one of the best Trial lawyers in
San Francisco…. In California….. and in
the nation. His fellow lawyers have
selected him …. 1. Trial Lawyer of the
Year by the Consumer Attorneys of California,
2. Trial Lawyer of the Year by San
Francisco Trial Lawyers Association,
3. California Lawyer Attorney of the Year
(CLAY) award 4. And President of the
Consumer Attorneys of California, Chris
is driven to fight for people who had been
harmed by the willful or negligent actions of
others. His goals….. Not ONLY To get
Justice for his clients… But also to set a
higher standard to protect us all. You

SAFETY ON THE JOB – Leon Griffin’s
Story
22:10
Every year….Thousands of construction
workers are seriously injured in New York
City. Construction workers find themselves
confronted by dangerous, unsafe work
conditions on a daily basis. New York
State has enacted laws and regulations to
protect all workers …. Whether they are
Iron Workers, Construction
Workers…..Electricians….Mechanics
…Bricklayers… Painters ….. Or
Carpenters And Every
business….regardless of its size….. must
provide its employees with safe working
conditions. And considering the range of
potential hazards -- from asbestos to
slippery stairs to excessive noise …. that
can be difficult for a small business.
Why should everyone be so concerned about
job safety and health? Because…Each
year… approximately 6,000 employees in this
country die from workplace injuries
while…another 50,000 die from illnesses
caused by exposure to workplace hazards.
In addition….. 6 million workers suffer
non-fatal workplace injuries at an annual
cost to U.S. businesses of more than $125
billion dollars. Standards and rules for
safe working conditions…. tools,
equipment….. facilities and processes are
set by the Labor Department's Occupational
Safety and Health Administration OSHA
standards apply to every private employer
with one or more employees…. except for
those in industries covered by other federal
job safety legislation. Today….
roughly 93 million employees across the
country are protected by state and federal
OSHA programs. But even with adequate safety
measures, accidents do happen. The
INSIDER EXCLUSIVE “Goes Behind The
Headlines” in this TV Special… “SAFETY
ON THE JOB – Leon Griffin’s Story”
to examine how Seth A. Harris, Ptr Burns &
Harris successfully got justice for Leon
On June 6, 2006, …. Leon Griffin, a
union-employed laborer, worked at a
construction site that was located at 510 W.
52nd St., in Manhattan. During the course of
the day, Leon was asked to clean a walkway
beneath a scaffold that was being
disassembled. One of the scaffold’s frames
fell off the structure, plummeted 14 feet and
struck Leon in the back while he was cleaning
the ground as instructed. Leon was not
provided any type of safety that could have
prevented his injury. The scaffold should
have been secured and tied during its
disassembly and Leon should not have been
told to work beneath a structure that was
being disassembled. Leon’s injury stemmed
from an elevation-related hazard, as defined
by Labor Law §240 (1), and that Leon was not
provided the proper, safe equipment that is a
requirement of the structure. Leon’s
back was struck by a scaffold frame that
weighed about 40 pounds. He was transported
to a hospital and he underwent treatment. It
was ultimately discovered that Leon sustained
a large herniation of his L4-5 intervertebral
disc. After attempts and physical therapy
failed, surgery was needed. He also
underwent 12 months of physical therapy. Leon
cannot lift heavy objects or endure prolonged
periods in which he is standing or seated,
and he claimed that his limitations prevent
his resumption of work. He receives
workers’ compensation benefits. He also
claimed that he cannot perform household
chores or resume certain recreational
activities, such as basketball. The Jury
awarded a Verdict of approximately 12.5
million dollars… in past and future pain
and suffering, loss of wages, and loss of
benefits. Burns & Harris is one of New
York’s premier construction accident law
firms. These “Lawyers with Hardhats” have
a long and proud tradition of representing
laborers of all kinds who have been injured
on the job. They are well versed in Labor
Law, and have recovered millions of dollars
on behalf of injured workers • The firm
has also represented union and non-union
workers… laborers, electricians,
carpenters, sheet metal workers, plumbers,
iron workers and steamfitters. • They
also represent documented as well as
undocumented workers. • And they work
hand in hand with some of the finest Workers
Compensation and Disability lawyers in the
State. You can contact Seth Harris, at

U.S. Pet Food Recall
28:13
In 2006 and 2007, 60 million containers of
180 different brands of pet food and treats,
produced by 12 different manufacturers, were
recalled due to the intentional contamination
of wheat gluten and rice protein imported
from China by two Chinese Companies, Xuzhou
Anying Biologic Technology Development Co.
and Binzhou Futian Biological Technology.
This was the largest recall of pet food in
U.S. history and was initiated by the
dominant manufacturer of dry dog and cat
food, the Canadian Company, Menu Foods. The
contaminated wheat gluten and rice protein
were adulterated with melamine which,
combined with cyanuric acid, can lead to
acute renal failure if eaten by small
animals. The two Chinese supply companies
intentionally put melamine into wheat gluten
and rice protein to deceive manufacturers and
the public of their true protein content,
resulting in the deaths of untold numbers of
animals and putting at risk more than 100
Million pets in Americas households. This is
the true story of this historic $24 Million
dollar settlement for 23,000 claimants and
how the loss of one familys pet and friend,
Sahara, adversely affected the lives of one
pet owner, Tracy Schlutter. Ken Wexler and Ed
Wallace, partners at the law firm of Wexler
Wallace LLP, join Tracy in recounting this
powerful story.. You can contact Ken Wexler
and Ed Wallace at 312-346-2222,. or
