The missing Epstein files were supposed to be on Attorney General Pam Bondi’s desk by February 28. If she had them, we’d have heard about it, right?  So presumably she doesn’t. Assuming the files exist, that is.  We just have the word of a single whistle-blower who contacted Bondi. But if the files do exist, ... Read more

Robert Lamontagne vs. The State of New Hampshire

Free Keene - Tue, 2025-03-04 18:46 +0000

As many of you know I am not a licensed “Attorney-at-Law.”  I am, however, a former law enforcement officer with some legal experience who enjoys dabbling in legal work as a hobby to help others who find themselves in various legal predicaments.

I recently posted on the Shire Society Forum that I was interested in donating some of my free time to get involved in another legal case.  A gentleman named Robert “Rob” Lamontagne responded and asked me if I would help him with his legal situation.


Please meet Mr. Robert “Rob” Lamontagne


Rob was originally charged with three counts of Aggravated Felonious Sexual Assault in the late 80s and the charges were later changed to three counts of Endangering Welfare of a Minor or Incompetent in the Cheshire County Superior Court.  Rob was found guilty and was sentenced to nearly a decade in the New Hampshire State Prison.  He served his sentence but never once waivered in asserting his innocence to the charges he was accused of.  Since his release and as of recently the Innocence Project and Grafton County Attorney have been reviewing his case for potential violations of his constitutional rights.

Rob is a listener and occasional caller to Free Talk Live and has friends in the New Hampshire liberty community.  I have met Rob on more than one occasion and he has always struck me as a gentleman.

I now legally represent Mr. Lamontagne as his “Attorney-in-Fact.”  Though I don’t have the experience and training that a licensed Attorney may have I am going to do my best to investigate Rob’s case and fight for his position that his legal rights during his trial were violated.  From the outset it sounds to me that there was a potential “Brady” violation in that Rob’s defense attorney was never informed that the lead detective investigating his case had credibility issues.  Fairness, and the United States Supreme Court since 1963, have required that witnesses with credibility issues must be disclosed to a defendant.

As I always do, I will share with you what I find as I review his case and potentially file legal actions to defend him.  I welcome all of your feedback…  whether positive or negative.  I’m far from a pro at this stuff, but I’m willing to try to help people who ask for assistance.  I feel I become a better legal advocate with feedback from people like you.

I sent a letter to the Keene Police Department on January 21st of this year (2025) requesting all documents in their possession relating to Rob and his case.  Though we have not received these documents as of yet, Rob and I understand that this request may be tricky as not all documents may have been digitized.  I have been in contact with the cordial Keene Police prosecutor who has assured me that this records request is in the works.

Stay tuned for updates!

NATO Is the Obstacle to Peace in Ukraine

Granite Grok - Tue, 2025-03-04 15:00 +0000
During his recent campaign for president, Donald Trump repeatedly stated that he had a secret plan for settling the war in Ukraine. He suggested that he would be able to resolve the conflict within a day of so of taking office. That obviously was political hyperbole because the war is still going on. Trump and ... Read more

Vermont Wants To Put More Women In Harms Way

Granite Grok - Tue, 2025-03-04 13:00 +0000
Human trafficking is illegal in all 57 US States (right, Barry Obama?), but in recent years, this illegal practice has escalated, and human sex trafficking is rampant despite its illegality. The State of Vermont is proposing two nearly identical pieces of legislation that would make prostitution “not illegal” while pretending they are also protecting sex ... Read more

The political left convinced them being a mom was bad. Being a stay-at-home mom was worse. That being a single mom was not bad, ... Read more

The Medicaid Alarm is Ringing

Granite Grok - Mon, 2025-03-03 11:00 +0000
Two years ago this week, we warned legislators that a day of reckoning was coming for Medicaid.  “Any discussion of expanding Medicaid coverage or eligibility should start with the understanding that current spending levels are unsustainable, and increasing those levels just accelerates the date of reckoning,” we wrote. With Congress looking to make $2 trillion in ... Read more
