Phoenix Mayor Phil Gordon 200 W. Washington St., 12th floor Phoenix, AZ 85003 July 28, 2004 Dear Sirs: This is a request for public documents, records and information per Arizona Revised Statutes ARS 39 - 121 and United States Code USC 5 - 552. Please comply with U.S. and Arizona law and give us copies of the information as soon as possible under penalty of law. A Republican telephone solicitor called the Walsh family and asked them to support and re-elect President Bush for four more years of war. Kevin Walsh answered the phone and told the solicitor something to the effect that he thought Bush was a war criminal. The Republican telephone solicitor identified Kevin as a political dissenter and this triggered a Secret Service investigation. Sometime around June 6, 2004 the Secret Service asked the Phoenix Police to locate and tail Kevin Walsh. This was probably requested by Secret Service Agent Ray LeBeau. Around Monday June 21, 2004 Kevin Walsh was arrested at gun point in Tempe at the Quadrangles Village apartments on 1255 E. University Drive by the Phoenix Police. This was done at the request of Secret Service Agent Ray LeBeau who claimed Mr. Walsh was in need of psychiatric evaluation for his political dissent. The Phoenix Police and the Secret Service made a major screw up on this because they didn't know that an arrest warrant was required to detain Kevin, nor did they get an arrest warrant. Kevin was taken against his will by the Phoenix Police to the Maricopa Medical Center Desert Vista Campus on 570 Brown Road in Mesa, Arizona where he has been detained since, although he has not been charged with any crimes. Two psychistrics were waiting there to examine him and rubber stamp Agent Ray LeBeau's statement that Kevin was "insane" because of his political views. Sometime after Kevin was detained but before his court hearing some type of arrest warrant was issued for Kevin. Around Thursday July 1, 2004 a judge in a mental health court at the Desert Vista Behavioral Health Center in Mesa committed Kevin Walsh to the State Mental Hospital for 180 days because his political dissent made him a danger to himself and other people. After Kevin's hearing some type of another arrest was issued for Kevin. Please give us this information and all other information you have relating to this:
I would gladly come pick this information up but can't because I am currently being detained by the State of Arizona against my will so send this information to my home at:
5059 N 38th Place Thank You
