Dear Jackie I understand how the riveting documentation could be annoying to you. I have this to say Janet Hudson took it upon herself [author's correction, Aug 22, 2026: original read “upon her cell too” — a typographical error for “upon herself”]. That's HUTSON to destroy the integrity of Muskogee County and the system of jurisprudence within Muskogee County she did this all on her own. She knew better than to do this and she is placed others next to her in a position to where It might be in the best interest of those persons working right next to her to simply say if you want it done, do it yourself because what you're doing is your placing all of us in harms way at the level of United States Department of Justice, public integrity, criminal investigation, division inquiry, and office of the inspector general for the United States Department of justice criminal investigation division for government mismanagement so I know one thing Jackie I know it's fair to give you the hint of please Jackie Gross Jacqueline Gross. Please do not put yourself into any act that could be considered a criminal violation or succession of your official scope of authority with that great respect to you thank you. — Published to the public record at the author's order.
