Evidence Judge Susan Weaver Does Not Want the Public to Hear
Judge Susan Weaver held a kangaroo court on March 17, 2022.
I was a named defendant, but Judge Weaver forbid me from making objections, testifying and cross examining the one witness, Micheal Pietrczak.
I Brought a box full of evidence to submit at the trial. I was not allowed to present any of it.
Here is one video that is a conversation between me and Mr. Pietrczak.
You may want to read the back story first.
Back Story:
I fell in love with a recovering alcoholic around Christmas 2009.
He claimed to love me and considered me his “wife”.
He was really committing fraud on me. I was a devout Christian, had assets worth about a million dollars and was 10 years older than Mike Pietrczak. He was living in a halfway house and was on probation after serving time for a felony conviction when we met.
After a year or two together, Pietrczak started drinking again. The day his probation was over, he started chain smoking weed. After years of hell, six years after we met, I broke up with Pietrczak. (I use his last name because I am married to a wonderful man now, and his name is also Mike.)
Using my capital and my brains, we accumulated assets of about $250,000. Plus, I still had my initial investment property, a share in an LLC that had increased in value to about $1.4M. I offered, and Pietrczak agreed to split the $250,000 50/50. We each had a car or truck and ATV in our name. But we had put our home in Witts Spring in Pietrczak’s name.
During the months leading up to my decision to breakup, Pietrczak agreed to gift the land and house to a trust. I was the beneficiary of the trust. We made a mortgage agreement between the trust and Pietrczak.
The mortgage agreement was void from the start for technical reasons. But I intended to make good on my promise to split the property with Pietrczak 50/50. If we broke up, one of us would keep the property and the other would get $75,000 or half the mortgage payment. Obviously Mr. Pietrczak could not come up with $75,000 in a lump sum, but anyone who could fog up a mirror could come up with $650 per month for a mortgage payment.
Our last days as a couple, Pietrczak got drunk and drove to Falling Water, a campsite. I drove separately. I wanted to see what he did on his drunken drive-abouts.
It was scary. It was dark and he was senseless. I was afraid for my life. I managed to convince him to let me leave.
The next morning, Pietrczak was on the property, but did not come into the house.
He had driven his truck too fast in 4WD and had to have it towed.
Without coming in to talk with me, he drove off on his ATV.
The next morning, at about 4 a.m., Pietrczak came into our cabin. He had blood dripping from his ear. His collar bone was jutting out, like it was broken. His foot was swollen.
I offered to call an ambulance. He said not to.
After falling asleep for a few hours, Pietrczak changed his mind about going to a hospital. He did not want to pay for the ambulance, so he asked me to drive him about an hour and forty-five minutes to Conway.
Of course, I complied. But I determined right then that I would not continue in this relationship unless Pietrczak agreed to go to a residential treatment program for his substance abuse.
Pietrczak was transferred to UAMS. It was that day that I learned that my partners in the LLC wanted to sell the shopping center it owned. I knew I would receive a big chunk of change after the sale.
I was willing to pay for Pietrczak to go to the program of his choice, anywhere in the world. But I was smart enough to not tell him that I was going to receive this substantial sum of money. His decision should be based on his desire to give up the wildlife he lived when high. Not on staying with moneybags.
Pietrczak decided against rehab.
Instead, he tried to convince me to pay him $75,000 for my half of the Witts Springs property. Many years later I obtained a letter Pietrczak handwrote and signed. He told his father that he was going to commit suicide. Another cryptic note I obtained, Pietrczak referred to suicide, whiskey, a rope and a tree.
His dad was instructed to collect the $75,000 from me, and then to have an attorney named William Zac White file a suit for many times that against me.
Pietrczak did not commit suicide successfully. He did “fall” from a tall tree at his dad’s house and was left a paraplegic.
The Pietrczak’s and Mr. White went forward with their attempt to take hundreds of thousands of dollars from me through a lawsuit.
Judge Susan Kaye Weaver, Searcy County Circuit Court, Arkansas awarded hundreds of thousands of dollars, basically a blank check, to Pietrczak and attorney William Zac White. I was eventually dismissed from the case, after Judge Weaver tortured me for almost a year. But she did not dismiss the unrepresented trust that held the rest of the assets I intended to retire on.
I lost a shitload of money in the stock market COVID-crash in March 2020. I had diversified by holding onto some real estate, but I did not move the real estate in the trust into my own name. I was afraid that if I did, Judge Weaver would call it a fraudulent transfer and have me tried for that crime.
Judge Susan Weaver would not allow me to play this tape in court. She would not allow me to say anything during the “trial” where she determined that I wrote and filed a bunch of documents that she determined were “void ab initio” and that I had no right to the Witts Spring home that was originally purchased with my money.
If you know any voters or politicians in Arkansas, send a link to them. Susan Kaye Weaver should be incarcerated. She should not be given the opportunity to tranfer ownership of property from unrepresented old people’s trusts.
Thank you.
Evidence Excluded by Judge Susan Kaye Weaver
Arkansas judge Susan Weaver did not want evidence of an alleged fraud by attorney William Zac White and his clients to be presented in court.
This video was the first of two made back-to-back. A second, longer video is being uploaded to YouTube today.
Come back later to see the heart-to-heart conversation between me and the man who defrauded me out of hundreds of thousands of dollars. It is a conversation Judge Susan Weaver does not want you to hear.
But then, Judge Weaver does not want the public to hear any of the hearings in the case filed against me by the alcoholic, drug abusing man who defrauded me with the help of Judge Susan Weaver and Attorney William Zac White.
Judge Susan Weaver Gives Fraudster Bonus
I gave a copy of this letter handwritten and signed by “Mike” Pietrczak, that describes how he intended to collect over $75,000 from me and then have attorney William White sue me for many times the amount.
I brought a video tape to play in the hearing of March 17, 2022, in which Pietrczak tells me we will be even once I pay him $75,000. Judge Weaver did not allow me to say a word about the truth. I am not exaggerating. The Arkansas judge threatened that I would be committing a crime if I gave any testimony that would show Mike Pietrczak, his dad Walter and attorney White were committing a fraud.
Here is the recording.
Good Ol’ Boy Arkansas Sheriff Has Crooked Judge’s Back
Judge Susan Weaver in Searcy County Arkansas is making a habit of transferring assets from old womens’ trusts to her favored attorney’s clients (and therefore to her favored attorney).
She did this to me. I could not find an attorney in Arkansas willing to represent the trust. Literally, I was told “I will never win a case in front of Judge Weaver again, if I represent you or the trust.” [paraphrased, closely]
I get why Judge Susan Weaver and Attorney William Zac White would benefit from making these transfers.
But what is in it for Searcy County Sheriff Kenney Cassell? (Mr. Cassell sometimes uses “Kenny” so I’ll switch back and forth like him to help with SEO.)
The Sheriff had a recording of Mr. White’s client, Mike Pietrczak, calling the law while sloppy drunk. Mr. Pietrczak said something like: Come get this bitch. When the deputy asked what I did wrong, Pietrczak repeated that I was “a bitch”. When the deputy asked if I said anything threatening, Pietrczak said no.
Eventually I got on the phone. I was not drunk. In fact, I abstained from alcohol out of sympathy for my alcoholic boyfriend.
The deputy told me I should go stay in my office in Marshall, a 30-minute drive on a good day. This was not a good day. The roads were covered in snow and ice. The deputy told me the safest way to drive in these conditions, taking the dirt backroads. The deputy said that after Pietrczak ran out of booze and sobered up, he would call me apologetically and ask me to come home.
The deputy’s prophesy came true.
I made a Freedom of Information Act request for the recording. Sheriff Cassell’s crew had purged the tape.
Before the hearing of March 17, 2022 where Judge Weaver said she was transferring all the trust property to Mr. Pietrczak and attorney Zac White, Zac screamed at me in the courthouse. “Shut your mouth bitch!” Sheriff Cassell was in the room with me. Mr. White was in a different room. Judge Weaver was also in the small courthouse. Mr. White was not restrained by Sheriff Cassell or any of the three deputies who were there to protect…???
Later, in the courtroom during the hearing, with the full team of sheriffs present, Mr. William Z. White again called me “bitch”. He leaned toward me and spoke loud enough for two 70+ year-olds in the audience to hear.
Judge Weaver ignored the slur. So too, the big ape Cassell who masquerades as a good Christian man.
The Sheriff and Deputies stood there, watching the kangaroo court. They heard the judge shut me down any time I tried to object to impermissible evidence. Not that the judge overruled my objections. She demanded that I not object at all. She also said that if I testified, I would be practicing law unauthorized.
After this surreal and horrifying hearing ended, I pled with Sheriff Kenny Cassell to do something…anything in the pursuit of justice. I told him Pietrczak had lied on the stand. Perjury. I told him that the judge and attorney White had conspired with the court reporter in the past to fabricate what was said and not said in court. I spoke to Kenney Cassell directly and then to a young deputy at the station.
Nothing was done.
I know Kenny Cassell has a pleasant demeanor. He is a heck of a guy to go to a bar-b-que with. He will give you a firm handshake at church on Sunday.
But he is the man like that who watched as Nazis stole property from Jews and then sent the Jews off to concentration camps. Kenny Cassell is the man like that who looked at the captives beseeching him for help, gave a sympathetic pout and shrugged, palms up and shaking his helpless head.
Judge Weaver is evil. But those who stand by and let her get away with it are a special brand of puke.
Portfolio Recovery Associates Threatened Little Old Lady who had COVID and Auto-immune Disease
Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC, a Goliath debt buyer, files about 3,000 lawsuits per week against alleged debtors.
PRA knows the lists of debts it purchases from original creditors are riddled with errors, but presses forward before verifying the debt.
Government agencies such as the CFPB and State Attorney Generals have come to settlements with PRA over the conduct. Much of the restitution PRA made was to old people and people of color who lost in court when PRA sued them.
PRA is relentless when it is plaintiff in a case. There was one interesting, rare person who fought back named “Susan Young”. (04CV-20-197, Benton County Arkansas Circuit Court) PRA dismissed that case eventually. The reason it caught my attention is that there is a corrupt judge named Susan Weaver who was “Susan Young” briefly, due to a short-lived marriage. Maybe just a coincidence, but unconfirmed rumor has it that Judge Weaver had debt issues and she went to college in Fayetteville, in Benton County neck of the woods. This is just interesting speculation.
What I do know is that when I sued PRA for violating the FDCPA and causing intentional infliction of emotional distress against me, PRA brought out the big guns to defend itself.
They hired Rose Law Firm of Hillary Clinton fame. They hired a second big national firm called Troutman-Pepper. They filed motions that were hundreds of pages long and full of lies.
The judge on the case, Lee P. Rudofsky, appears to have a big-business bias. The Harvard trained judge was Solicitor General in Arkansas after working as counsel to Wal-Mart. He acts like Portfolio Recovery is not known to file false affidavits. He looked at the simple math errors made on the one statement produced by PRA and did not discount the statement. He saw that PRA claimed the alleged debt carried an interest rate of 29.4% on one document and an interest rate of 0.00% on another document, but did not accept the debt PRA bought for pennies on the dollar was invalid.
It looks to me like I have an uphill battle to fight. It looks that way to PRA, also. The fancy lawyers are getting real arrogant and bossy. Like they “own the court.”
While I was sick with COVID, PRA attorneys kept sending me demands to give them a list of people who I consider “employees”. Here is the latest letter with my response in red.
Ms. Hammett,
PRA has no interest in your “confidential” information and, outside of Dr. Adhia and PRA counsel, has disclosed it to no one. PRA posted my confidential information on PACER and I documented the contemptuous acts. Dr. Adhia’s report specifically excluded a “Confidential” designation and Dr. Adhia said he does not consider the exam as confidential. He said that he told me the exam was not confidential and that I proceeded. He failed to mention that I first corrected him as to the confidentiality.
You, however, have from the inception of this case tried to leverage threats to disclose PRA’s confidential and proprietary information – by “getting loud” PRA has access to all my blog posts and there is not a single confidential disclosure.– to extract an exorbitant settlement from PRA. PRA violated the Consent Order concerning me before the Consent Order expired. PRA already paid $8M in fines for the same behavior and it did not slow PRA down. I offered to settle for far less than that. I did as much work as the CFPB, without any compensation for my time and taking all the risk. As a public action, I anticipate the CFPB will collect quite a bit more than $8M. If PRA agreed to the settlement of our private right of action, the government would collect the appropriate percentage of my settlement as tax. Indeed, you have expressly stated your intent to publicly share as much of PRA’s confidential information as possible. I have not said anything of the sort. Put that in the bin with the other PRA lies, such as PRA’s invention of “online (therefore illegal) poker losses” and that PRA did not call my cell phone repeatedly in September and October 2020.
In your recent barrage of filings, you indicated that you have provided PRA’s confidential materials to other individuals No, I quite specifically said I had not provided confidential materials to Mr. Paisola yet.and that by errantly self-labelling these individuals as your “employees” that you can do so in contravention of the Protective Order with impunity. PRA does not have a monopoly on hiring employees. Note that PRA refused to disclose the names of any employees in response to discovery requests. Perhaps coincidentally, but likely as wrongdoing by PRA, I told PRA two of my employees’ names and within days, each of those employees ghosted me.
It is highly unlikely you have any actual “employees,” which is a term of art with a very specific meaning. PRA is pompous and self-absorbed. Note that PRA hired two law firms and has a legal department with hundreds of employees helping to try to crush a 60-year-old non-attorney and expects her to do every bit of the work without help. After being given documentation that the older woman has COVID and an auto-immune disease, PRA sent a barrage of demands to the woman telling her she must create employee records and disclose them to PRA, while she has COVID. Merely calling someone an “employee” does not make it so. Your latest attempt to sidestep Judge Rudofsky’s protective order is improper.
To be clear, my client does not wish to file a motion. There have been far too many of those in this case already. We agree on one point; this should have been a simple case. It did not warrant a thousand page motion for summary judgment or a protective order that requires a motion to unseal “Confidential” documents that already exist in the exact form (with different data) elsewhere on the internet.
Rather, my client’s sole objective is to ascertain who is in possession of its confidential materials, properly or otherwise, and to ensure that PRA’s confidential materials remain protected. PRA is inventing things to worry about. PRA has not seen any posting of its confidential information by me or anyone remotely related to me, because there has been no inappropriate disclosures. PRA on the other hand has violated the protective order and the signed confidentiality agreement from the settlement conference.
At present, you are refusing to identify the individual(s) to whom you have disclosed PRA documents designated as confidential under the protective order. We ask once more that you do so. I am not aware of any mechanism for you to make that demand. I copy and pasted your demand, changing the name of the requesting party, and you ignored that demand completely. All of this will be shared with proper authorities and the public at the appropriate time.
Should you once again refuse, PRA reserves all rights in this regard (attached).
I wrote a motion under Rule 11 against PRA in my head when I could not sit up to write it on the computer. I will add this latest threat if I decide to put the Rule 11 Motion in writing now that I am able to sit up. Frankly, I think the reports to the CFPB and the IRS are more important. There will be no confidential information included, but I will point out that you convinced the Court to keep evidence of PRA’s wrongdoing confidential.
Regards,
Jim (The debt buyer company attorney who filed for bankruptcy himself to get out from under his insurmountable debt.)

Clever Willy Files Another Summonsless Suit
[UPDATE, October 20, 2022: This blog was posted on September 29, 2022. On October 12, 2022, Attorney William Zac White issued three summonses in the case. Gold star for Willy. (I was down with COVID until a few days ago and am trying to catch up with my own cases.) Now we can wait with bated breath to see if the attorney serves the summonses before the final hearing on the case.]
You should catch up by reading how Arkansas Attorney William Zac White and Judge Susan Kaye Weaver transfer properties from trusts to his clients, each time failing to serve a summons on the defendants.
The out-of-control attorney filed another suit today. Named a trust. Check. Issued no summons. Check.
This case is against great-grandparents Harold and Patsy Land of Lawrence County Arkansas.
If any reader knows the Lands, give them a heads up.
The suit is based on a real estate sale “contract” that Mr. White claims was oral.
I am not an attorney, but I was a real estate broker for three decades. I heard about this thing called the statute of frauds. I bet most attorneys have heard of it too.
Here is a statute cut and pasted from a Justia, that looks to my non-attorney self to be the statute of frauds.
Instruments
Chapter 59 – Fraud
Subchapter 1 – Statute of Frauds
§ 4-59-101 – Contracts, agreements, or promises required to be in writing.
4-59-101. Contracts, agreements, or promises required to be in writing.
(a) Unless the agreement, promise, or contract, or some memorandum or note thereof, upon which an action is brought is made in writing and signed by the party to be charged therewith, or signed by some other person properly authorized by the person sought to be charged, no action shall be brought to charge any:
(4) Person upon any contract for the sale of lands, tenements, or hereditaments, or any interest in or concerning them;
Slick Willy forgot to issue a summons, but he remembered to file a lis pendens. He wrote in the complaint that the Lands have a sale pending. That lis pendens may block the sale. If Mr. White doesn’t serve summons on the elderly couple or the trust they set up, they will have a rude surprise in escrow. Mr. White will have leverage to extort some sort of settlement. Knowing Mr. White’s record, a judge may give default judgment to his client without a summons being issued.
Is this another way for Mr. White to grab property from the elderly for his clients and his “fee”?
I’d have to guess YES!
Searcy County Arkansas Sheriff’s Email Hacked: Deputy Dopey Not Too Concerned
I received an email that appeared to be from Searcy County Sheriff, Kenney Cassell today.
It said he was sharing a Dropbox file with me. Just click here.
I am sick with COVID and still under the influence of medications. It is difficult to sit. It is difficult to breath. Sorry William White, Susan Weaver and Portfolio Recovery Associates; I am not going to die from this. It is just slowing me down.
I foolishly clicked on the box and entered my email address and password, as instructed.
When there was no file presented to me, I quickly changed my email password.
I called the sheriff. Deputy Devon answered. (You can listen to the call below.)
He put me on hold a couple minutes to investigate. Then he said “We see an email. It was not meant to be sent to you. We are not sure exactly what this email is so you can disregard it. It’s not anything.”
Me: It’s very strange.
Deputy “Dopey” Devon: We didn’t send this email somehow.
Me: What do you mean you didn’t send it?
Deputy Dopey: We didn’t send this out this morning. We may have been hacked so…
Me: You may have been hacked?
Deputy Dopey: Disregard it. Delete it.
I gave him a long explanation of why I wanted more specific information about who hacked their system. I was concerned it might be Judge Susan Weaver or Attorney William White.
Finally, Deputy Dopey said “It was sent to a couple hundred people, so it wasn’t specifically targeted to you.”
So, the Sheriff of Searcy County Arkansas was hacked and its email is used to help the hacker convince old ladies who are on medication to enter their email and password. Many hours later, the sheriff still has not sent an email blast warning folks not to click on the “Dropbox” link.
A concerned citizen who is now likely to have further fraud committed against her by the hackers called and the Sheriff did not want to investigate. They made no effort to discover anything like IP addresses or anything that might be helpful to a computer forensics expert.
I’m glad Sheriff Kenney Cassell, who has a pleasant demeanor, has no brain. If he did, it would get lonely being the only one in the sheriff station.
There is an intermission when D.D. investigates. Grab a bite to eat or fast forward to 6:01.
Good Job, Young Simpson: Attorney W.Z. White Loses Again
Arkansas Judge Susan Weaver transferred property from a trust I was settlor, trustee and beneficiary of, by default. She used the excuse that I could not present evidence or arguments that would apply equally to the trust as to myself. I was named in the suit as a Common Defense Doctrine defendant. I was dismissed with prejudice. At that moment, Judge Weaver was obligated to dismiss the non-appearing trust.
The case began when attorney William Z. White of Heber Springs filed the suit and issued only one summons, the summons on me as an individual (misnaming me, but that is the general gist). Mr. White did not serve the one summons. I learned why later.
I found out about the case when I looked my own name up on Court Connect.
I recommend everyone in Arkansas monitor Court Connect to protect yourself against default judgments granted without service of summons.
You see, that is the devious plan that it appears was hatched by Mr. White and Judge Weaver. They previously were involved with a case filed by Richard Gawenis. There too, a trust was named but not served summons. Judge Weaver revoked the trust and Gawenis was going to grab the property.
But an attorney got involved. He filed a motion to set aside the order in the first case. Then he opened a second case. Judge Weaver presided on that case also.
It seems like Judge Weaver is a tad smarter than Willy White. (That is not a big accomplishment.) With an attorney involved, Judge Weaver made the right call. The trust got its property back and Mr. White’s client lost his rights as a beneficiary because of a no-contest clause.
Mr. White appealed.
He lost on appeal.

Feeling Funky, But Want to KIT
Sorry my posts are few and far between. Is this what the elder years are like? One ailment after another?
My current malady is COVID. The doctor diagnosing me did not seem too concerned. COVID is not the Russian Roulette it was in 2020 or when the delta variant hit.
There were moments in the past few days when I would rather be dead than handle the pain, but modern medicine is wonderous. Pop a pill and drift off into a comfortable sleep.
Unfortunately, law has not kept up with medicine. Judges usually hold non-attorney, self-represented litigants to the same standards as a team of high paid lawyers. I remember feeling like I do now, and Judge Susan K. Weaver of Searcy County Circuit Court denied my request to postpone an in-person hearing that entailed three hours of driving for me.
Funky as I feel, I finished a petition for writ of mandate today to cause Judge Weaver to play the recording of court hearings that were deliberately falsified in the transcripts.
Here it is.
