In 1972 I was living with Sallie Stapleton, 150 Evans St., Ukiah, California. Her daughter Lillie Joe Carr visited her. That week I had $585.85 in my room. I went in the kitchen, when I came to my room, Lillie Joe was in there, she rushed out right away & left the house, and said she had to go to town. When I looked in my bag, the money was gone. When her mother came, I told her the money was missing, her reply was Lillie Joe has it, Lillie Joe had gone to town & bought a lot of new clothes, her [she] went in her room, looked in her suitcase and found only $200.00. Lillie came to me crying & said she needed a new coat.<\/p>\n

\nJeffrey J. Carey<\/p>\n

I, Jeffrey J. Carey, duly sworn declare:<\/p>\n

I observed Jim Cobb taking his penis out of his pants and dancing on his study desk in front of other males and boasting of his homosexuality. He, in fact, seems obsessed with this sort of behavior, because on another occasion he exposed his penis to an even larger group of males and bragged about how small it was. He often spoke of wanting to kill the then-President Nixon and about espousing violent revolution.<\/p>\n

Wayne Pietla [Pietila] is an admitted child molester. He also open espouses violent revolution, he says that his hero is Che Guevara, he even used to call himself Che. I waited outside while Mickey Touchette embezzled money from Motel 6 in Santa Rosa California. She also (Mickey Touchette) open[ly] espoused violent revolution. Lena Pietla open[ly] espoused violent revolution and the overthrow of the US government.<\/p>\n

Linda Swaney open[ly] espoused violent overthrow of the US government.<\/p>\n
