I, Rodney F. Stich, declare and state:
I was a former inspector-investigator for the Federal Aviation Agency (now called Federal Aviation Administration) and then a private investigator and author, for the past 30 years. During these federal and private investigative activities I discovered area of criminal and subversive activities involving federal personnel in various agencies and the three branches of the federal government. These areas of criminal activities included:
* Criminal activities related to a series of specific airline crashes that I and other federal inspectors discovered as part of our official duties, implicating officials in the Federal Aviation Administration, National Transportation Safety Board, and management at United Airlines. I sought to report these criminal activities to a federal judge under the mandatory crime-reporting responsibilities of Title 18 USC Section 4, which were the start of a 30-year pattern of obstruction of justice by federal judges and Justice Department personnel.
My attempts to expose the aviation corruption and its coverup caused me to discover other areas of corruption, which were assisted by agents and operatives of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Central Intelligence Agency and other covert operations. Among the additional criminal activities that I discovered were the following:
* Decades of CIA drug trafficking into the United States. Drug smuggling into the United States by people working for, or at the direction of, federal officials. I have received data, affidavits, evidence, from many CIA, DEA, FBI agents and operatives who were either part of the drug-related activities, or, as in the case of former FBI employees, had discovered and reported the drug trafficking. Included in those directly involved in the drug trafficking were and are employees of the CIA, DEA, and the military. I had also discovered this practice in the early 1950s while I was an airline pilot flying out of Tokyo and Beirut, Lebanon.
* Judicial corruption in bankruptcy courts. Pattern of criminal activities in Chapter 11 courts in which the assets of people exercising the statutory protection of Chapter 11 are criminally seized and looted. Involved in this scheme are federal judges, Justice Department and court-appointed trustees, law firms, and others.
* CIA looting of savings and loans, as revealed to me by several former CIA and other deep-cover assets.
* Federal judges involved in repeated obstruction of justice tactics. Federal judges have repeatedly blocked me from reporting the criminal activities that I sought to report to a federal judge under the federal crime reporting statue, Title 18 USC Section 4.
* Retaliation against me by federal judges and Justice Department prosecutors, for having sought to report to a federal judge the criminal activities that I discovered. These retaliatory judicial acts, in addition to obstructing justice, were federal crimes under Title 18 USC Sections 1512, 1513, 241.
There were other areas of criminal activities involving federal personnel that I and my sources discovered. These are detailed and documented in the second and third editions of Defrauding America that I wrote.
I declare and affirm under penalty of perjury that these statements are true to the best of my knowledge and belief. Executed this 22nd day of August, 1997, in the City of Walnut Creek, County of Contra Cost, State of California.
