Re: 23CR00379

Dear Clatsop County Circuit Court,

I am writing a letter into this case because Clatsop County Circuit Court Staff, in

particular Dawn Benthin and Cindy Whitten, have been engaging in deliberate

misconduct that has prevented me from getting notices of hearings et al with an intended

purpose of getting me put in jail. Cindy can’t even remain professional and repeatedly

laughed at me this morning. I did not receive a notice for this morning’s hearing nor for

the last hearing in any form.. Had I received notice, I would have been at this morning’s

hearing. I had previously wrote a letter to the Trial Court Administrator Julie Vredeveld to

inform her about some of the issues going on, and Cindy Whitten knowingly and

intentionally intercepted the letter, made assumptions without fact, only partially reading

the letter, then knowingly and intentionally sent the letter back to me. I have informed the

court staff repeatedly that Dawn Benthin should not be having anything to do with this

case including scheduling. The reason for this is that she has a conflict of interest, and is

one of the individuals who are engaging in or who have engaged in cyberbullying related

to this case.

I never received any notice, Webex email alert, or Google Calendar alert (which is linked

to Webex). The only way I found out was when I picked up my phone about 10:30a.m.

and there was a voicemail from Paula. I did not get Paula’s phone call when she called

because I am recovering from a cold and had briefly fallen back asleep. When I attempted
Emily Reyneke
110 NW 4 th Street SPC D13
Warrenton, Oregon 97146
(541) 846-8511
csufiredog@gmail.com
to return Paula’s call and inform her that I did not get notice of the hearing, the court

clerk acted like an immature individual who lacked ability to process basic information.

Then Cindy Whitten continued the immature behavior with the laughing and refusing to

figure out why I hadn’t been sent notice of the hearing.

Again, I was not sent notice of the hearing in any form. Not a paper notice via mail, not

by email, not even a WebEx invite or calendar reminder (that’s linked to Webex). Please

rescind the warrant and reset the hearing; and direct court staff i.e. Elisa or April to call

me to confirm that I received the notice and know about the hearing date. Please also

order that Dawn Benthin or Cindy Whitten have absolutely nothing further with this case;

and that any issues that may arise that would require a supervisor, that the Trial Court

Administrator Julie Vredeveld be the individual to communicate with me.

Also of note, I had been working on preparing a document to inform the court that

Colette Cameron had engaged in perjury when she filed the motion to withdraw. That will

be forthcoming. I do not have a printer, so please accept this letter without a hand written

signature.

Additionally, when Cindy Whitten was being unprofessional and engaging in misconduct

she mentioned a pretrial release agreement that was adjusted. I never received a new

pretrial release agreement when Clatsop County District Attorney Alex Thomas moved

for the case to be dismissed and refiled. Nor was a new pre trial release agreement ever
Emily Reyneke
110 NW 4 th Street SPC D13
Warrenton, Oregon 97146
(541) 846-8511

discussed in any hearing after Alex Thomas refiled the case. The court record (audio)

would reflect that.

Respectfully submitted,

Emily Reyneke

4 Plaintiff,

5 vs. MEMORANDUM

6 EMILY REYNEKE,

7 Defendant

9 Clatsop County Circuit Court,

10

11 This memorandum is being written in response to attorney Paul Charas’ Motion to

12 Withdraw and in support of Defendant’s Motion to Dismiss.

13

14 On February 21, 2024, Paul Charas filed a Motion to Withdraw and a Declaration In

15 Support of Motion to Withdraw. Mr. Charas included a declaration under penalty of

16 perjury that he had served a copy of the Motion to Withdraw and the Declaration upon

17 the Defendant. When in fact, he had not. I did not receive a copy of the motion and

18 declaration until March 7, 2024 when I had to specifically ask for it.

19

20 During a phone meeting with Mr. Charas, Mr. Charas admitted that at the time of the

21 purported incident, he was an employee of the Clatsop County District Attorney’s Office.

22 MEMORANDUM - 1

23

24
l And, that he had conversations with Mr. Ron Brown, Clatsop County District Attorney

2 regarding the case. Mr. Charas then also disclosed/admitted to knowing several of the

"witnesses" in the matter, but refused to identify which witnesses. And as a result he has

4
ZI
a conflict of interest.

6 Mr. Charas would go on to repeatedly make statements that he wants to "keep his

7 license" and that he "likes his license". Within the context of the conversation, facts

8 known, his tone, the fact that Mr. Charas had been assigned to Defendant, etc. it is

9 believed that Mr. Charas may have been placed under fear of retaliation by Ron Brown or

10 the "witnesses" if the outcome of the case was anything other than a conviction. And at
ll minimum he was concerned about it.

12

13 Even though Mr. Charas deliberately attempted to withhold information, the information

l4 was still uncovered. Mr. Charas resides at 3496 Harrison Avenue, Astoria, Oregon

15 97103. Judge Kirk and Heidi Wintermute reside at—


16

l7
_ This means that Paul Charas and Kirk and Heidi Wintermute are

neighbors and personal friends of Paul Charas. Paul Charas is also one of the individuals

18 who gave misinformation to Heidi Wintermute and was further disseminated by Heidi

19 Wintermute which led to the meritless case being filed to begin with.

20

21 Additionally, during his tenure at Clatsop County District Attorney's Office, he was

22
MEMORANDUM -2
1 leaking information to Kirk and Heidi Wintermute which was further disseminated and

2 has been continually used to harass, slander, intimidate the Defendant pre-trial including

3 deliberately repeatedly seeking the termination of the Defendant’s employment from

4 private employers each time it’s discovered that the Defendant has gained a new job.

5 Additionally, one of the state’s witnesses, Janelle Wagner, who is an employee of the

6 Astoria School District, has as recently as Saturday, March 2, 2024 slandered the

7 Defendant and deliberately attempted to deter community members from doing business

8 with the Defendant on social media.

10 The case is without any merit. There are massive credibility issues with every one of the

11 state’s witnesses. The state has failed to preserve physical evidence. There ’s been

12 misconduct by Alex Thomas and Ron Brown on the case which in and of itself is grounds

13 for dismissal. And ultimately, the court has been entertaining a meritless case whose only

14 real purpose is to thwart accountability of the individuals through legal/proper channels

15 who caused the case to be filed in the first place, Heidi Wintermute et al and to attempt to

16 silence a United States citizen from exercising constitutional rights. So the only thing that

17 the court is currently doing besides wasting massive amounts of it’s own time, is further

18 violating the Defendant’s legal rights which includes renumeration for the civil torts

19 committed by Heidi Wintermute, Maritza Casarrubias, Janette Sampson, Jenna

20 Rickenbach, and Grace Laman. And that’s not the purpose of this court. The court at this

21 time must dismiss this case with prejudice. Whether it holds individuals including Paul

22 MEMORANDUM - 3

23

24
1 Charas et al in contempt for misusing the court and making false statements under

2 penalty of perjury, that is up for the court to investigate and decide.

4 Please accept the electronic filing of this memorandum as the signature of this

5 Memorandum. I do not have a printer and am not in a position to be able to print and send

6 the document via USPS.

6 Defendant )

7 In these two cases, defendant is alleged to have committed crimes involving Unlawful

8 Interception of Communications involving the Astoria School as well as Sunset Empire

9 Transportation. ORS 132.560(2) allows the court to consolidate two or more sets of charges

l0 where the charges are the same or similar. Both charging documents against defendant allege

il Unlawful Interception of Communications and only differ as to the number of counts alleged and

12 therefore qualify. See St. v. Tidewell, 259 Or App 152 (2013) where two DUII charges 7

l3 months apart were ruled to be properly joined. As the caselaw says, as long as the cases are of

t4 the same or similar character, the state's interest in economy outweighs any alleged prejudice.

15 St. v. Mever, 109 OrApp 598 (1992). Meyer is based upon federal caselaw which upheld an

l6 analogous federal statute of the same kind. See US v. Wemer , 620 F2d 922,926 (2nd Circuit,

l7 1980) which cites prior federal caselaw. Edwards v. Squier, 178 F2d 758,759 (1949). So long

l8 as the evidence is separate and distinct, the jury may be instructed that they are to consider each

l9 count and case separately. See also St. v. Jones, 184 OrApp 57 (2002) which upheld defendant's

20 convictions for multiple counts of sexual abuse committed against three victims.

2t The caselaw further points out ORS 132.560(3) which allows either side to move to sever

22 if it becomes an issue of substantial prejudice to that pa(y. Perhaps the best example ofthe

23 Oregon joinder/severance statute is St. v. Barone, 329 OR 210, 217 (1999), where defendant was

21 charged originally with the murder of four different women in separate criminal episodes. The

I State actually moved to sever one of the murders and then they tried the other three, obtaining

2 guilty verdicts involving all victims. Consolidation was upheld on appeal.

3 At this juncture, when defendant has perhaps an incomplete view ofthe discovery and its

4 implications, the State asks that defendant's objection to consolidation be ovemrled with leave to

5 renew down the road as a motion to sever.

9 The State alleges on October 12, 2023, defendant Emily Reyneke attended a public meeting ofthe Astoria

School Board. The meeting was between the board members who were attending in person, and the board's attomey
l0
Callen Sterling who was attending via a telephone call being broadcast on a speaker. At one point in the meeting, the
ll
board entered "executive session" and asked members ofthe public (including defendant) to leave. The State alleges

l2 defendant left her cell phone in the meeting room with the recorder activated in order to capture the conversations

l3 between the board and Ms. Sterling. The State alleges no participant in the telephonic conversation was aware ofor

l4 consented to the recording. Lastly, the State alleges defendant posted the telephonic conversation in which she was

not a participant on Facebook. The State filed an information which contains one count of violating ORS 165.540(a)
l5
and one count of violating ORS 165.540(e). The defendant filed a motion to dismiss which is the subject ofthis
t6
brief.
l7 DEFENDANT'S MOTION TO DISMISS

Itt On August 8,2023, defendant filed a motion to dismiss. The motion's sole basis is the recent 9th circuit

l9 ruling Project Veritas v. Michael Schmidt,'72 F .4th 1043 (9s cir. 2023). Defendant claims the case strikes down the

entirety ofORS 165.540. The Sate anticipates the argument will be based on instances in the opinion in which the
20
court refers to subsections 165.540(l)(c), 5(a), and 5(b) as the "statute." The State disagrees.

I LAW

ORS 165.540 has several subsections. Subsecrion ( l) enumerates five different causes ofaction (a-e)
2
related to different forms ofobtaining the contents ofa communication. Each is distinct and has differing elements.
3
Subsection (2)-(7) enumerate several exceptions in which the conduct described in section ( I ) would not constitute a
4
crime. The exceptions in subsection (5) apply only to ( l)(c).

5 In Proiect Veritas v. Mi chael Schmid the petitioner, an investigative non-profit Project Veritas, sued

6 I Oregon Attomey Ceneral. Elen Rosenblum, and the District Attorney of Multnomah County, Michael Schmidt

I rendered section 165.540(lXc) and its exceptions unconstitutional." Id. l,J1052.


9 I

I The coun went on to hold section 165.540(l)(c) when paired with the exceptions in 165.540(5)(a) and

t0 | I

151b1was a content-based restriction on speech. 1l at 1057. As such, the court applied a strict scrutiny evaluation
I

il I and found Oregon did not have a compelling interest and the subsection was not narrowly tailored to address the
I

l2 I
State's interests. ld. at 1060-62. Lastly, the court addressed the question ofthe exceptions' severability from

165.540( l1c). The court found severing the exceptions would not rescue (I Xc) because the court found even absent
l3 I

the exceptions. ( I Xc ) as a standalone provision does not survive intermediate constitutional scrutiny. 1d at 1065-66.
l1 I

I The court so found based on the fact that ( I Xc) does not offer ahemative channels for the creation of audio-visual

APPLICATION

211 Defendant has been charged with two counts: one count for violating ORS 165.540(lXa); and one count for

21 violating ORS 165.540( l)(e).

,, Without conceding whether or not Project Veritas v. Michael Schmidt is actually binding on Oregon State

courts in regards to their treatment of ORS 165.540( I )(c). one thing is clear: Veritas has nothing to say regarding
23
165.540(l)(a) and (e) the subsections at issue in this case. Perhaps the strongest argument in favor ofthis reading
21
is the plain meaning of the court's writing. The opinion clearly defines the scope of its concem as I 65.540( I Xc),

the term "statute" as shorthand for subsections l(c), (5Xa), and (5Xb) in an attempt to argue Project Veritas strikes
3
down the entirety of 165.540 as unconstitutional. Beyond being inconsistent with the vast majority ofthe language
4
ofthe opinion, such an expansive reading would be nonsensical for a number ofother reasons.

5 From a procedural perspective, the petitioner's suit did not challenge subsections l(a) and l(e). In its

6 original action, petitioner challenged 165.540l(c). l(d), and l(e). /d at footnote 6. However, the parties later agreed

to dismiss the claims against l(d) and l(e) with prejudice. /d Therefore, the only subsection which was even before
7
the court was l(c). Accordingly, the court made no ruling as to l(a) and l(e) - the subsections al question in this
8
case

9
Further, the court's strict and intermediate scrutiny analysis are base on the particular language and

10 elements ofsubsection (l)(c); which are distinct from the elements of l(a) and l(e).

ll For example, (l)(c) only applies unless not all participants "are specifically informed that their

conversation is being obtained," while (l )(a) is only triggered ifnone ofthe panicipants to the telephonic
t2
conversation consent to the recording, whereas ( I )(e) has no notice or consent elements at all. Yet the court's
13
analysis finding that I (c) does not offer sufficient alternative avenues to survive stand-alone intermediate scrutiny
11
hinges on the fact that a// participants must be informed to avoid triggering ( I )(c) - an element not at issue in (I Xa)

l5 or l(e). Id at 1065-66. The rest ofthe court's constitutional analysis is similarly tied to the panicular and distinct

t6 elements of(l )(c). It would be nonsensical to apply a constitutional analysis ofa cause ofaction based on particular

elements to other causes ofaction with wholly different elements.


17
Additionally, part ofthe court's analysis is based upon disparate treatment for different types ofspeech
t8
which is created under the exceptions in 165.540(5)(a) and (5Xb). However, the exceptions in I65.540(5) apply only
19
to (I Xc). Again, the court's logic does not implicate (I Xa) and (| Xe).

20 Defendant points to a handful of instances when the court substitutes the term "statute" as shorthand for

21 (I )(c), (5)(a), and (5)(b). However, this is wishful reading which ignores the vast majority of the opinion. Take the

t1 court at its words, the opinion is a narrowly targeted scalpel not a sledgehammer.

4 Plaintiff,

5 vs. MOTION TO DISMISS

6 EMILY REYNEKE,

7 Defendant

9 1.

10 INTRODUCTION

11 Defendant moves the court to dismiss this action on the grounds that the District Attorney

12 Ron Brown and Deputy District Attorney Alex Thomas engaged in prosecutorial

13 misconduct, deliberately withheld exculpatory evidence; committed perjury and caselaw

14 now requires the court to dismiss cases if a public defender cannot be assigned within a

15 specific number of days.

16

17 2.

18 FACTS

19 In December 2023, Defendant learned that Ron Brown and Alex Thomas deliberately

20 withheld exculpatory evidence from Lane Borg and Collette Cameron, previous public

21 defenders for the defendant. This includes footage from Officer Zack Stockton’s body worn

22 MOTION TO DISMISS - 1

23

24
1 camera; letters from Heidi Wintermute, Grace Laman, Maritza Casarrubias, and Janelle

2 Wagner; and interview reports from Callen Sterling, Heidi Wintermute, Grace Laman,

3 Maritza Casarrubias and Janelle Wagner.

5 3.

6 In the body worn camera footage , Zack Stockton of the Astoria Police Department placed

7 his body worn camera on the workstation he was sitting at prior to initiating recording, but

8 then appears in video to adjust the camera so that the desktop phone and computer were in

9 full view of the camera.

10

11 4.

12 Zack Stockton contacted Callen Sterling of the Oregon School Board Association. Ms.

13 Sterling has been attempting to misuse her title of “attorney” and represent/mislead

14 individuals that she is the attorney for the Astoria School District Board when statuatorily

15 she is not legally authorized to represent the Astoria School District. And, Astoria School

16 District does in fact have a legally retained attorney of record named Richard Cohn-Lee.

17 Zack Stockton did not inform Ms. Sterling that he was recording the conversation.

18

19 5.

20 On November 9, 2022 Haley Percell of the Oregon School Board Association, without

21 authorization from the Oregon School Board Association and without a legal basis, wrote

22 MOTION TO DISMISS - 2

23

24
1 a letter to Clatsop County District Attorney Ron Brown to attempt to pressure Mr. Brown

2 to prosecute the Defendant. This letter was withheld from defense counsel.

4 6.

5 On October 17, 2022 Grace Laman a school board member for the Astoria School District

6 knowingly and intentionally also wrote a letter to Mr. Ron Brown, to attempt to compel

7 Mr. Brown to prosecute the Defendant. Ms. Laman’s basis was “violation of public

8 meeting laws and sending inappropriate threats to elected public officials.”

9 However, Ms. Laman would proceed in her letter to state that the “threats” included “cost

10 the district millions”, “the entire school board will be recalled” and “also threatening to get

11 numerous district employees fired.” All of these threats prima facially are civil in nature

12 and not criminal acts. Additionally, elected board members of a public body such as the

13 Astoria School District are legally prohibited from using their position in the matter that

14 she did, and Ms. Laman is now at risk of prosecution and conviction for Official

15 Misconduct 1 et al.

16

17 7.

18 On October 16, 2022 at 9:44 p.m. Maritza Casarrubias, another Astoria School District

19 Board member, officially wrote an email letter to Clatsop County District Attorney Ron

20 Brown via his non public email address that she obtained from Heidi Wintermute who in

21 turn obtained it from her husband Judge Kirk Wintermute without legal authorization to do

22 MOTION TO DISMISS - 3

23

24
1 so, in an effort to compel Mr. Brown to take action against the Defendant. However, Ms.

2 Casarrubias, like Ms. Laman, stated her reasoning to be based on misinformation and on

3 “emails” that contained civil “threats” statements that her and the board’s actions would

4 cost the school district “millions”; and “writing a letter to a board member’s employer in

5 hopes of getting her fired or dismissed from her place of employment.”

6 Ms. Casarrubias even stated, “As a Board Member, I am concerned that Ms. Reyneke will

7 not be prosecuted.”

8 Ms. Casarrubias’ actions could also result in her being prosecuted and convicted of Official

9 Misconduct 1 et al.

10

11 8.

12 On October 16, 2022 at 6:00pm Janelle Wagner, an Astoria School District employee and

13 personal friend of Heidi Wintermute, wrote an email letter to Mr. Ron Brown stating, “I’ve

14 been told that you’re not planning to prosecute Ms. Reyneke.” Ms. Wagner unlawfully

15 used her official position and is subject to prosecution and conviction for Official

16 Misconduct as well as Collusion/Conspiracy. In addition, Ms. Wagner has no involvement

17 in the matter outside of the inappropriate/unlawful letter that she wrote. She is not a witness

18 or victim nor was she present for any meetings that the Defendant had with the Astoria

19 School Board.

20

21

22 MOTION TO DISMISS - 4

23

24
1

2 9.

3 On October 16, 2022 at 5:21p.m. Heidi Wintermute wrote an email letter to Ron Brown’s

4 non public email address to deliberately attempt to pressure Mr. Brown to prosecute the

5 Defendant. In the second statement of her email letter, Heidi Wintermute states, “I am

6 writing to you to encourage you to proceed with prosecuting Ms. Emily Reyneke…”.

7 Within Ms. Wintermute’s email letter she goes on to deliberately make false statements in

8 retaliation to having been notified of the Oregon Government Ethics Commission

9 investigation et al. Those blatantly false statements include but are not limited to the entire

10 paragraph of her email letter which contains “I was informed over the weekend that there

11 was a woman matching her description sighted taking pictures of a board member’s home

12 late last week. I reported this new information to your investigator today.”

13 However, at the time that Ms. Wintermute sent this letter she had direct knowledge of the

14 Defendant working/driving a transit bus for Sunset Empire Transportation District at the

15 alleged time and was physically incapable of walking by Ms. Wintermute’s home.

16 Additionally, no other board members have alleged that the Defendant did this, thereby

17 further showing that it did not occur and that Ms. Wintermute was lying in an attempt to

18 cause sufficient alarm to compel Mr. Brown to maliciously prosecute the Defendant.

19

20

21

22 MOTION TO DISMISS - 5

23

24
1 10.

2 Also in Ms. Wintermute’s email letter to Mr. Brown, Ms. Wintermute stated, “I know that

3 we are not the first school district in Clatsop County that Ms. Reyneke has targeted. She is

4 costing our school districts and community members money and time…” and “I implore

5 you to please help us stop this woman from continuing to cause havoc in Clatsop County

6 with her unreasonable and unlawful behavior.”

8 11.

9 On October 12, 2022 Defendant emailed Heidi Wintermute, Maritza Casarrubias, Grace

10 Laman, Jeanette Sampson, and Jenna Rickenbach a notice of intent to file claim via email

11 letter. It included documentation to show that they were making a series of tortious errors

12 that were correctable, and that if they failed to reverse their decision it could cost the

13 Astoria School District millions of dollars to fix what they could have and should have

14 fixed on their own. Communication is required by the Oregon Tort Claims Act.

15 Heidi Wintermute, Maritza Casarrubias, Grace Laman, Jeanette Sampson and Jenna

16 Rickenbach all had in their possession on October 12, 2022 a copy of the Oregon Bureau

17 of Labor and Industries Notice of Determination Letter involving the Seaside School

18 District. The bureau, herein referred to as BOLI, had made the legal determination that the

19 Seaside School District had unlawfully discriminated against a whistleblower which was

20 the defendant. This is the school district that Heidi Wintermute et al were referring to in

21 her email letter to Ron Brown.

22 MOTION TO DISMISS - 6

23

24
1

2 12.

3 On October 12, 2022 Callen Sterling told the Astoria School District Board that the Seaside

4 School District situation was “unfortunate” when asked about how Seaside handled the

5 defendant.

7 13.

8 Per the Oregon Government Ethics Commission, The topic(s) discussed in an executive

9 session must be limited to those topics expressly permitted by the specific provision(s)

10 under which the executive session was convened. Members of governing bodies may not

11 discuss topics in executive session other than those delineated in ORS 192.660 or other

12 state law permitting an executive session, even if the additional topics care related to the

13 issue concerning which the governing body convened the executive session. (OAR 199-

14 040-0220(1)).

15

16 14.

17 The Astoria School District Board noticed it’s October 12, 2022 Executive Session under

18 ORS 192.660(2)(b) which states, “To consider the dismissal or disciplining of, or to hear

19 complaints or charges brought against, a public officer, employee, staff member or

20 individual agent who does not request an open hearing.”

21 The Astoria School District written policy which outlines how district employees can

22 MOTION TO DISMISS - 7

23

24
1 appeal a superintendent’s decision directs employees to file a grievance against the

2 Superintendent in order to appeal one of his decisions. As a result, the Classified staff union

3 rep instructs employees (and instructed the defendant) to file a grievance against Craig

4 Hoppes the Superintendent of the Astoria School District.

6 15.

7 The Oregon Government Ethics Commission and the Oregon Attorney General’s office

8 have administrative rules and policies which state that if an entity that is required to comply

9 with executive session rules and public meeting law does not follow the executive session

10 statutes to the letter, that any decision discussed in executive session has to be reversed and

11 there are no legal protections afforded if the executive session rules had been followed

12 exactly.

13

14 16.

15 The Oregon Government Ethics Commission has already determined that the Astoria

16 School District Board only conducted one executive session and not two and that the

17 Defendant was invited to the executive session. .

18

19

20

21

22 MOTION TO DISMISS - 8

23

24
1 17.

2 The Astoria School District Board did not go into executive session properly, nor did it

3 properly publish that it was also going to go into executive session to confer with “legal

4 counsel”. Per the Oregon Government Ethics Commission and the Attorney General’s

5 Guidance on Executive Sessions, in order for any protections to be considered, the Astoria

6 School District Board would have had to have included in it’s notice of meeting and it’s

7 meeting agenda a citation of ORS 192.660 (2)(h) along with the wording that states, “To

8 consult with counsel concerning the legal rights and duties of a public body with regard to

9 current litigation or litigation likely to be held.” And, the school board would have had to

10 have audibly announced at the beginning of the executive session the ground(s) for entering

11 into the executive session for that reason. In fact, the Astoria School District Board did not

12 publish a public notice stating that they would be going into executive session to confer

13 with legal counsel and is not afforded any executive session or attorney-client protections,

14 and must reverse it’s decision to not investigate the complaint and decision of Craig

15 Hoppes further. The Board also did not announce when going into executive session for

16 the purpose of conferring with legal counsel under ORS 192.660(2)(h).

17

18 18.

19 Callen Sterling is not legally authorized to represent the Astoria School District, nor is

20 the attorney of record for the Astoria School District.

21

22 MOTION TO DISMISS - 9

23

24
1 19.

2 For a number of years, Richard Cohn-Lee has been the retained attorney for the Astoria

3 School District. Richard Cohn-Lee has a conflict of interest in the matter involving the

4 Astoria School District. Richard Cohn-Lee now works for the Hungerford group in

5 Oregon City, Oregon as a partner in the law firm. Nancy Hungerford represented the

6 Seaside School District in a Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industry Complaint

7 Investigation involving the Defendant. The Seaside School District was officially found

8 by BOLI to have unlawfully discriminated against the defendant for whistleblowing and a

9 “Letter of Determination” was issued. Richard Cohn-Lee’s representation or input given

10 to the Astoria School District would be adversarial to both the Astoria School District and

11 the Seaside School District.

12 20.

13 On October 12, 2022 Ron Brown was alerted to a social media post by Heidi Wintermute

14 who was alerted to the social media post by a personal friend named Kali Linder, a personal

15 friend of Heidi Wintermute who is also a financial benefactor of the Astoria School District.

16 Mr. Brown interjected himself for the personal benefit of Heidi Wintermute and made

17 statements inconsistent with state law and caselaw on the social media platform Facebook.

18 Instead of requesting a District Attorney from a neighboring county review the matter, he

19 instructed Alex Thomas to handle the matter. However, Alex also has a conflict of interest

20 in that his landlord, Carol Toristoja, is a personal friend of Heidi Wintermute and an Astoria

21 School District employee.

22 MOTION TO DISMISS - 10

23

24
1 21.

2 On January 27, 2023 Ron Brown motioned for case 23CR04264 and this case to be

3 consolidated and asserted that the cases were similar in nature. On February 7, 2023 the

4 court granted that motion to consolidate.

6 22.

7 In June 2023 Deputy District Attorney Alex Thomas filed a motion to dismiss the

8 consolidated case and on July 7, 2023 that motion to dismiss was granted.

10 23.

11 In October 2023 the defendant in 23CR23294 filed a motion to dismiss her case. That case

12 was for the same alleged offense as Ron Brown and Alex Thomas are trying to allege here.

13 On October 27, 2023 Deputy District Attorney Alex Thomas filed a motion to dismiss in

14 that identical case, 23CR23294 State of Oregon v. Mary Eng. That motion to dismiss was

15 granted. Alex Thomas listed a reason within his response/motion to dismiss in that case,

16 however it made no mention of the reason being factual deficiencies. He listed the recent

17 9th Circuit ruling in his filing. However, during the course of the ongoing Oregon State Bar

18 investigation he has been trying to assert other reasoning to attempt to avoid accountability

19 and maintain legitimateness of this malicious case.

2 In 2023 Alex Thomas admitted in writing to the Oregon State Bar under penalty of

3 perjury that he had only “reviewed” the facts that had been given to him in the file

4 created by Ron Brown and Astoria Police Department. Alex Thomas failed to conduct a

5 thorough investigation and failed to gather all of the facts and caselaw that would have

6 irrefutably established that no crime had occurred and the case was without merit.

8 25.

9 Alex Thomas and Ron Brown are both currently facing Oregon State Bar

10 complaints/investigations which include what the Bar has identified as potential violations

11 regarding meritorious claims.

14 26.

15 ARGUMENT

16 This case should never have been filed because the facts surrounding the issues do not

17 constitute a criminal act, even prima facially. This case is completely political in nature

18 and a deliberate attempt by Heidi Wintermute, Maritza Casarrubias, Grace Laman, Janelle

19 Wagner, Callen Sterling and Holly Percell to unlawfully compel Ron Brown to prosecute

20 the Defendant because the Defendant has evidence of their misconduct and torts and was

21 in the process of civilly whistleblowing against the Astoria School District, Heidi

22 MOTION TO DISMISS - 12

23

24
1 Wintermute, Maritza Casarrubias, Janette Sampson, Jenna Rickenbach, Callen Sterling and

2 Holly Percell; including the preparation of a civil complaint. Their letters, which Ron

3 Brown and Alex Thomas knowingly withheld from the Defendant and previous counsel

4 even though previous counsel had made several phone and email communications with

5 Ron Brown and Alex Thomas regarding discovery, are evidence of misconduct

6 (withholding of evidence et al) and criminal action on their part, but in terms of this matter

7 shows that their complaints did not have a basis in criminal law or that a crime allegedly

8 occurred.

9 27.

10 In State v. Neff, the Oregon Court of Appeals elaborated succinctly what constitutes a

11 violation of the Oregon Revised Statute that Ron Brown and Alex Thomas have been

12 attempting vainly to assert was violated. In State v. Neff, the court held that it does not

13 matter who establishes consent to record. It also held that once consent is established that

14 an indeterminate number of people could be surreptitiously recording and there is no

15 violation.

16

17 28.

18 Because Ron Brown and Alex Thomas failed to thoroughly investigate and rather relied

19 solely on the slanderous misleading statements of Heidi Wintermute et al, they failed to

20 obtain the sign in sheet for the board meeting and executive session; they failed to identify

21 that Daily Astorian reporter Ethan Myers was present for the meetings and remained in the

22 MOTION TO DISMISS - 13

23

24
1 room during the entire executive session, and was recording executive session meeting as

2 he always customarily did; and they also failed to secure evidence to prevent spoiliation

3 that Astoria School District employee Marisa Flukinger was taking notes and recording the

4 meetings on her cell phone. When previous defense counsel Lane Borg emailed Alex

5 Thomas, Alex Thomas admitted in a reply email that he wasn’t aware that the Astoria

6 School District Board had recorded the October 12, 2022 Board Meeting; and, that he

7 would follow up with Officer Zach Stockton. Both Alex Thomas’ response and Zack

8 Stockton’s email response that he would contact the Astoria School District about it were

9 provided to the Defendant by Lane Borg. However, Zack Stockton never followed up with

10 the Astoria School District nor secured the evidence. Both the Astoria School District and

11 Ethan Myers recording the meeting each on their own establishes consent to recording.

12 Therefore, under State v. Neff there was no crime here. And, as a result, Alex Thomas,

13 even though he has vainly tried to assert that he personally “thoroughly” reviewed the case,

14 has continued to try to prosecute a case without merit that is a violation of state bar rules

15 AND highlights his widely known sloppiness towards detail that is known amongst area

16 attorneys. Plainly put, he never bothered to be thorough in gathering evidence and asking

17 enough questions to establish whether or not a crime occurred so ultimately it backfired.

18 Illustratively, if a subject is pulled over by law enforcement because a bystander called

19 police and smelled alcohol on someone, and the officer fails to gather information/evidence,

20 not only could the officer cause evidence to spoil because he didn’t collect it, but the subject

21 could be something completely different like an individual having a diabetic emergency.

22 MOTION TO DISMISS - 14

23

24
1 Just because someone says something, doesn’t preclude the officer nor the District

2 Attorney from their responsibilities to gather all of the evidence and not just stop and a

3 couple of purported statements made by the complainant(s). It’d be like that officer

4 arresting someone for DUI because someone said they smelled like alcohol without

5 gathering all of the information. And to add further foul, even though Alex Thomas did not

6 have all of the information, he negligently without merit continued to pursue the case

7 because of the inappropriate and illegal/criminal conduct of the complainants.

9 29.

10 Additionally, Facebook only maintains records requested by law enforcement for a period

11 of 90 days. However, neither Astoria Police Department nor Ron Brown nor Alex Thomas

12 secured the evidence directly from the source of Facebook of the alleged criminal act and

13 admitted to that in emails to previous defense counsel which were later conveyed to the

14 Defendant. Alex Thomas, Ron Brown, and Zack Stockton of Astoria Police Department

15 have all admitted to only having what Heidi Wintermute gave them on a flash drive but

16 never produced a copy of that flash drive in discovery to previous defense counsel in the

17 normal course of discovery and only after repeated requests, and is most likely spoiliated

18 for what minimal evidence that it may be. In fact, when the Oregon Government Ethics

19 Commission was investigating the Astoria School District (and will be restarting shortly),

20 the Ethics Commission requested Astoria School District’s recording of the October 12,

21 2022 Board Meeting. And, through City of Astoria attorney Blair Henningsgaard and not

22 MOTION TO DISMISS - 15

23

24
1 Astoria School District attorney Rich Cohn-Lee, Mr. Henningsgaard produced the

2 recording as the District’s recording but is also the same one that Alex Thomas keeps trying

3 to assert was made by the Defendant and a criminal act (which it is not).

5 There is absolutely no merit to this case. Plainly put, given State v. Neff and the alleged

6 facts in the charging document, the facts don’t constitute a crime and therefore should be

7 dismissed. This is nothing but 5 corrupt women who like to do whatever they want

8 whenever they want like they don’t make mistakes, and if anyone tries to bring up a mistake

9 or bad choice/decision/action/corruption they will do whatever is necessary to keep their

10 image how they want it even if it means breaking the laws themselves. They don’t like

11 whistleblowers and have themselves admitted to it. And they think because of who they

12 are and who they are married to that it makes them immune. Allowing this case to continue

13 would clearly continue to waste this court’s time, visiting judge’s time, be a gross

14 perversion of the laws, as well as violate the Defendant’s civil rights and legal rights.

15

16 And, given that Ron Brown and Alex Thomas repeatedly withheld information and

17 exculpatory evidence that shows collusion amongst the purported victims/witnesses to

18 retaliate against the Defendant for whistleblowing is enough on it’s own to dismiss this

19 case. It wasn’t until a private investigator was hired that the exculpatory evidence was

20 uncovered. This requires immediate dismissal of this case.

21

22 MOTION TO DISMISS - 16

23

24
1 Furthermore, the 9th Circuit requires that the case be dismissed. The defendant has had two

2 public defenders, and the Defendant has made known to the court of issues with both of

3 those attorneys including one attorney being overloaded to the point of being negligent in

4 defense and another having personal opinions which conflicted with providing a defense

5 (as well as a conflict of interest which Colette Cameron brought up to the Defendant as a

6 conflict of interest). The court has been ignoring the Defendant when it comes to trying to

7 identify a public defender that can represent the Defendant and not have a conflict of

8 interest, that is available, and won’t further waste the court’s time and prolong the matter.

9 But then at subsequent hearings a name of a public defender is thrown out as the attorney

10 that is going to be assigned, but each time the court has not bothered to run simple conflict

11 checks. So now yet again, when the court threw out on the record the name of Paul Charas

12 as the one that they wanted the judge to assign to the Defendant, there is a major conflict

13 of interest that Paul Charas has brought up to the attention of the Defendant which is that

14 he was employed by the Clatsop County District Attorney’s office at the time of the alleged

15 incident as well as personally knowing several potential witnesses. So this issue is twofold.

16 Firstly, the assignment of a public defender and secondly the 9th Circuit.

17 Had the court clerks communicated with the Defendant about proposed public defenders

18 prior to hearings, the Defendant could have done simple searches or reflected on

19 knowledge base to determine whether a public defender had a conflict of interest. Secondly,

20 there are Defendants whose alleged crimes occurred prior to this case who do not have an

21 attorney and all of those cases are having to be dismissed because of the 9th Circuit ruling.

22 MOTION TO DISMISS - 17

23

24
1 By continuing to waste the court’s time and throw attorneys at a meritless case they are

2 violating the Defendant’s right to the application of the 9th Circuit decision and to have the

3 case dismissed because of that ruling.

5 Defendant now moves the Court to dismiss the case.

7 Please accept the electronically filed motion as a signed motion without a handwritten

8 signature. Defendant does not currently have the ability to print and to secondary scan

IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE STATE OF OREGON
FOR THE COUNTY OF CLATSOP
PO Box 835 Astoria Oregon 97103

Case No: 23CR00379


State of Oregon
vs OPINION AND ORDER
Emily Reyneke RE: DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO
DISMISS

This matter came before the court on October 6, 2023, on defendant’s Demurrer and Motion to
Dismiss. Defendant appeared represented by Lane Borg and Alex Thomas appeared representing the
state. Defendant asserts pursuant to ORS 135.630(4) that the facts stated in the Amended Information
filed by the state do not constitute an offense following the decision in Project Veritas v. Schmidt, 72
F4th 1043 (9th Cir 2023).

Facts

Defendant attended a public school board meeting on October 12, 2022. During the meeting the
school board entered an executive session and required members of the public to leave the room. The
state alleges that the defendant began a recording on her cell phone and left her cell phone unattended
in the room to capture the executive session of the meeting. During this executive session, board
members were present in person and the board’s attorney participated by phone. The board members
were unaware of the cell phone recording. The state alleges that the defendant later posted the
recorded executive session on Facebook.

For these alleged actions the defendant was charged with three counts of criminal behavior
under ORS 165.540. On July 3, 2023, Project Veritas v. Schmidt was published. 72 F4th 1043 (9th Cir
2023). Project Veritas discussed the constitutionality of ORS 165.540(1)(c), which prohibits the
unannounced recording of in-person conversations in Oregon. The state filed an amended information
charging defendant with one count pursuant to ORS 165.540(1)(a) for recording the executive session
and one count pursuant to ORS 165.540(1)(e) for posting the recording on Facebook. These sections
read as follows:

(a) Obtain or attempt to obtain the whole or any part of a telecommunication or a radio
communication to which the person is not a participant, by means of any device,
contrivance, machine or apparatus, whether electrical, mechanical, manual or
otherwise, unless consent is given by at least one participant.

(e)Use or attempt to use, or divulge to others, any conversation, telecommunication or


radio communication obtained by any means prohibited by this section.

ORS 165.540.
Defendant asserts that Project Veritas invalidated the entirety of ORS 165.540 and her case must be
dismissed. The state asserts that Project Veritas only invalidated ORS 165.540(1)(c).

Analysis

In Project Veritas v. Schmidt, the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit found ORS
165.540(1)(c) facially unconstitutional. Defendant argued at the motion hearing that because the court
in Project Veritas used “the statute” at times in their decision (instead of “the section” or “subsection”),
they intended to invalidate the entirety of ORS 165.540. For example, the court in Project Veritas states,
“Because we conclude that section 165.540(1)(c) and its exceptions constitute a content-based speech
restriction, we can uphold the statute only if it survives strict scrutiny.” Id. at 1058. The court also states,
“Applying Oregon law, we may not sever the exceptions because severing them would not render
section 165.540(1)(c) constitutional. Accordingly, we conclude that the statute is facially
unconstitutional.” Id. at 1068.

Despite the use of the word statute at points throughout the opinion, the entirety of the court’s
analysis in Project Veritas is focused only on ORS 165.540(1)(c). This court finds nothing within the
Project Veritas decision that substantiates the defendant’s position that the entire statute is
unconstitutional. The majority opinion clearly states, “we must determine the constitutionality of
section 165.540(1)(c) under the First Amendment. Id. at 1055–56. The opinion does not engage in any
discussion regarding other sections of ORS 165.540, let alone clearly invalidate those sections. The
dissent also summarizes the majority opinion by stating, “The majority strikes down all of section
165.540(1)(c) by making several unjustified leaps.” Id. at 1078. Finally, although the dissent takes time to
discuss the potential implications of the majority ruling, they do not discuss the implications of
invalidating anything outside of ORS 165.540(1)(c).

The defendant also argued that Project Veritas invalidated the entirety of ORS 165.540 because the
decision held that severability does not apply. The opinion does discuss severability at length however,
the defense misunderstands the purpose of this analysis. The court analyzed whether ORS 165.540(1)(c)
could be upheld as constitutional if the exceptions to it contained in ORS 165.540(5)(a) and (b) were
severed from the statute. They determined that severability does not apply because even without the
exceptions ORS 165.540(1)(c) would remain unconstitutional. The opinion does not state or suggest that
ORS 165.540(1)(c) cannot be severed from the remainder of ORS 165.540.

Conclusion

The ruling in Project Veritas held only ORS 165.540(1)(c) to be unconstitutional. Defendant is not
charged under ORS 165.540(1)(c). Defendant’s motion is DENIED.

Re: 23 CR0037 9 / 23 CR04264 / Motion to Dismiss / Public Defender

Your Honor,

I am writing for two reasons. Firstly, I am writing to motion the court to dismiss both
23CR003 79 and 23 CR04264. Both cases were maliciously and wrongfully filed for the
personal benefit of Jeff Hazen and Heidi Wintermute without merit, both of whom are
known to District Attorney Ron Brown. Mr. Brown has admitted to the Oregon State Bar
that he knows J eff Hazen and Heidi Wintermute as well as several other individuals
previously mentioned to the court that are connected to Sunset Empire Transportation
District and the Astoria School District. With respect to both cases, State v. Neff 246 Or.
App. 186 (Or. Ct. App. 2011)w0u1d be applicable. And, Mr. Brown's filings including
charging documents do not state facts sufficient to establish an allegation that a criminal
act occurred, because, in fact, no crime occurred. If this was a civil matter, this matter
would be dismissed with prejudice because it wouldn't survive an ORCP 21 motion.

Additionally, there are material flaws within the charging documents that show Mr.
Brown was attempting to manufacture meritless charges. In the Sunset Empire
Transportation District matter, Mr, Brown alleged that a criminal act occurred on
December 20, 2022 during a meeting. That is physically impossible to have occurred, as I
did not work for Sunset Empire Transportation District after December 9, 2022 and no
meetings of the SETD Board occurred between December 9, 2022 and it's January 2023
board meeting. Jeff Hazen also did not have the required authorization fro1n the Sunset
Empire Transportation District Board to make a report to law enforcement regarding the
matter but did so in retaliation for whistleblowing against him. In addition, Mr. Brown
had been communicating with Jeff Hazen prior to his filing of the baseless charges. Jeff
Hazen at the time knew that he was under investigation by Sunset Empire Transportation
District for misconduct M1 that the board was going to be considering disciplinary action
against him at it's February 15th, 2023 meeting when he emailed Deputy Chief Halverson
and communicated with Ron Brown. Jeff Hazen was in fact formally disciplined on the
15m of February by the Sunset Empire Transportation District Board and was suspended

without pay for 3 days. And now, Jeff Hazen is no longe1' an employee of the Sunset
Empire Transportation District because he resigned before the Board could terminate his
employment.
With regards to the Astoria School District matter, there is again a material flaw with Mr.
Brown's charging document that warrants dismissal of the case with prejudice.

In that matter, Mr. Brown again alleged a date that physically was incapable of occurring.
Mr. Brown alleged that a criminal act had occurred on October 13, 2022 at a meeting.
When in fact the Astoria School district Board did not have a meeting on October l3,
2022 and I was at work at Sunset Empire Transportation District on October l3, 2022.

In addition, the Astoria School District has since admitted to the Oregon Government
Ethics Commission that they in fact recorded their October 12, 2022 meeting and
provided a copy of the recording to the OGEC.The recording was made on Marisa
Flukinger's cell phone that sat in plain View on the table where she sat in close proximity
to Heidi Wintermute. Marisa is the Board Secretary of the Astoria School District and
ASD Superintendent Craig Hoppes' administrative assistant. So even if Ron Brown tried
to haphazardly refile he would not be able to allege that a crime occurred because the
facts do not support even the filing of a charge because of State V. Neff.

Both cases should be dismissed with prejudice.

If the motion to dismiss is not granted, I am requesting a hearing about either squaring
Mr. Borg away or assigning me a new public defender. Mr. Borg has known about the
flaws, and has deliberately not done whatI have asked of him and instead wanted to wait
until trial to bring up the flaws because he thinks Ron Brown will just refile if he did
what I asked. And as a result, I do not feel that he can give adequate legal
advice/representation without correction by the court. Additionally, he stated at the last
hearing that he is in near daily contact with me and that is not true. Previously I did stay
in what anyone would perceive as good communication with him, just not "near daily".
However now, even in light of caseloads, he's become unresponsive and doesn't return
calls.

Sincerely,

lv ReJ/neke
