A Strand-by-Strand Unraveling of Judge Lee P. Rudofsky’s Web of Lies and Deceit – Chapter Eight

So why would a young federal judge not only make bad decisions, but lie and cover-up the truth in a civil case against Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC?

Judge Lee P. Rudofsky had a “reason” (with air quotes, because his suspected motivation is not reasonable). Lee Rudofsky was a high-level attorney for Wal Mart directly before attaining a seat on the bench. Wal Mart partners with the original alleged creditor from whom PRA allegedly purchased the debt, Capital One. Judge Rudofsky had motivation to give dishonest services for his former employer’s sake and to encourage the debt trading business in general.

Some credible people, such as Senator Whitehouse, claim that there is “Dark Money” being funneled to Federalist Society Sweethearts. Lee P. Rudofsky qualifies as an alleged participant in the cabal. According to Senator Whitehouse, the Federalist Society judges are groomed to make absurd decisions favoring Dark Money interests.

Judge Rudofsky’s nefareous motivation is speculative.

The fact that he made a plethora of falsehoods in his opinion to grant summary judgment in favor of PRA is fact.

Let’s look further in Hammett v. Portfolio Recovery Associates, document 173.

At page 4, Judge Rudofsky talks about the early phone calls PRA made to my cell phone. He disclosed what was supposedly within “UNDER SEAL” documents. Hehehehe. “Try to prove me wrong”, the corrupt judicial officer seems to say.

For fear of retaliatory incarceration for dishonoring a court order, I cannot tell you what was actually said in the sealed documents. I can tell you what was not said.

The Judge reiterates PRA’s version of the first and second of over 400 admitted calls PRA made to the -6000 number. He cites a document that was not generated by a third party. The list of phone calls is incomplete. I know this because I am allowed to see the sealed document, and I know that PRA made more calls to me than they listed. I obtained about six months of records from my cell phone provider. All the numbers PRA admitted to calling from were disconnected. Also 14 connected calls that fit PRA’s pattern but did not show up on PRA’s call log were from numbers that were disconnected.

Also, the PRA call log and “PRANet” that shows all communications, supposedly, are inconsistent. For example, the calls on December 8th and 12th, 2013 disclosed by Loose Lipped Lee did not show up on PRANet.

Judge Rudofsky attributed a true statement to me. “Ms. Hammett answered but did not identify herself.³⁵” I mention the true statement in this story about lies and deceit, because the citation in footnote 35 contains pertinent information that Judge Rudofsky omitted. The cited document 99 is the same as document 198, only unredacted. Read paragraph 10, page 11.

“Plaintiff cannot confirm or deny that ‘the first time Plaintiff answered a call made
by PRA on Plaintiff’s account to the telephone number ending in -6000 was on
December 12, 2013.” I did not know who was calling me incessantly until November 18, 2020. I knew I had a stalker, but I had no indication who the stalker was.

That same paragraph has other pertinent information Judge Rudofsky did not mention. “Importantly, there is a recording of Micheal Pietrczak sounding drunk, yelling something at the start of the call and Hammett sounds disoriented and worried. Hammett vaguely remembers this call.” That was when my partner was spinning out of control and we were in a dispute with an unsavory neighbor.

It got a little more interesting. The Judge wrote, “Ms. Hammett said, ‘No this is the estate sale. It’s a business.’³⁷” Footnote 37 refers to “Ex. 6 (Call Trs.) to Reply to Pl.’s Opp’n to Def.’s Mot. for Summ.
J. (Doc. 107-6) at 3.”

Look at page 3. The line Judge Rudofsky quoted is toward the end. Where the judge wrote “the Estate Sale, it’s a business”, the transcript says “(unintelligible)”. The Court listened to the audio and saw that the transcript had this error and many others. Yet the judge did not admonish PRA in any way for falsifying the record. This call also has the distinct sound of a man yelling in a slurred voice, transcribed as “(Unintelligible)”, me starting the conversation by saying “The Estate Sale”, and again saying “This is the Estate Sale”. Those words were cut out by the Registered Professional Reporter bought and paid for by Portfolio Recovery.

Judge Rudofsky’s next less than the truthful statement referring to the same page: “PRA, LLC apologized and asked if Ms. Hammett worked at the business. Ms. Hammett did not answer PRA, LLC’s question. Instead, the call abruptly ended.”

The call did not end there. The recording ended there. The other recordings usually have a distinct clicking sound at the end. This one did not. All the other recordings have a trailing silence. This one did not. It is likely that I said something unpleasant to the uninvited caller that would give a strong indication that the calls should stop, and PRA chose to edit that out.

You can listen to the recording yourself and decide. I thought the recordings were under seal, but PRA filed the transcript on PACER. (For lack of time, I will load a few today and finish tomorrow. The downloadable file name starts with the date.)
