Did Themis/Maximus Attempt To Murder Child Abuse Investigator, Rob Nicholson?

When child abuse investigator, Rob Nicholson, failed to make a few payments of child support because he ran out of money trying to save his children from abuse and exploitation, Themis/Maximus employee, Joanne Platt, (referred to in a previous post) was caught making a recommendation that he should go to jail for seven years when the maximum penalty was only 90 days and no one is supposed to go to jail if they are unable to pay due to a lack of funds.  Rob Nicholson escaped that attempt but a few years later Themis/Maximus tried again to put Rob Nicholson in jail, and, based on the available evidence, someone tried to murder him.

A few years later when Rob Nicholson was disabled, broke, on welfare, and taking care of his youngest son, Themis/Maximus pounced on him like a jackal pounces on its wounded victims and served him with a summons to appear at a court hearing at the courthouse in Chilliwack about 250 miles from Sicamous where Rob Nicholson was living with his son.

The road from Sicamous to Chilliwack is through the high mountain valleys of British Columbia and is subject to frequent delays due to weather conditions that include, ice, snow, fog, or rain in every month of the year.

Rob Nicholson showed up 30 minutes late for his hearing and learned that he had been sentenced to jail for 90 days and, without even the courtesy of a fair hearing, he was taken to the jail.  This is how Themis/ Maximus and the crooked judges of British Columbia and Canada operate - like the Nazis.

According to Rob Nicholson:

"The judge's name was Hoy.  When I first appeared in front of Hoy, he was really concerned about the abuse of my children and my allegations of cover-up....he asked me to take the stand and be sworn in, which I did.  When I appeared in front of him the second time [ when I was put in jail ] he was the total opposite....I almost got the impression someone had gotten to him.  I was explaining the abuse of my children and the cover-up by authorities as well as what I thought was an RCMP/Ministry child porn operation".

When he was in jail, Rob Nicholson, a man with no prior history of heart disease, suffered a sudden heart attack about 30 minutes after eating one of his meals.  In pain and in fear for his life, he asked to be taken to the jail infirmary to be looked at by a nurse or doctor.

At the infirmary, the medical staff stabilized Rob's condition and inserted a medical device called "a stent" while Rob Nicholson, a man who had committed no crimes, was held captive in shackles.  The medical staff carried out the usual blood work to determine if he had had a heart attack and after a couple of days he was released from the infirmary and discharged from the jail.  In the process of release from the infirmary one of the medical staff said to Rob "I have made a copy of the medical records of your stay here and I have put them in your bag so you can give them to your doctor".   Rob Nicholson thanked the medical worker, and, at that time, he did not know that those records would be the only documents that he would ever get to prove he had been in jail.

A few weeks later, when he asked the Canada's national police force the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, known in Canada as the RCMP, for information about his time in jail they reported that there were no records showing that he had been in jail.

After his discharge from the Fraser Correctional Center, Rob Nicholson visited his doctor who examined the medical records from the prison and who carried out extensive testing and who advised him that he, the doctor, did not believe Rob had suffered a true heart attack because his blood serum levels were inconsistent with a true heart attack.

Did anyone have a motive to attempt to murder Rob Nicholson?

You bet they did.

Rob Nicholson was, and is, one of the foremost child abuse investigators in Canada and has saved numerous children from abuse at the hands of the sexual perverts that abound inside the governments of Canada and British Columbia.   His web site http://www.rwnicholson.com/ - no longer in operation - was, at the time, a source of great concern among government employees who were part of the child sex abuse industry that flourishes in British Columbia with the assistance of complicit members of the judiciary and, apparently, with the assistance of complicit employees of Themis/Maximus who issued the summons to compel Rob Nicholson to appear before Jodge Hoy for a second time.

The reader needs to understand that in British Columbia, Canada, there has been and, according to sources, cointinues to exist, a network of perverts, operating inside government structures, who destroy families so they can steal helpless children from their parewntsa for use in the child sex industry - both porn and prostitution.  Rob Nicholson was an enemy of those perverts, his web site ( http://www.rwnicholson.com/ is no longer online) was exposing them and they had motive to murder him.

Themis Dirty Tricks Have No End - Nola Silzer

The lady shown to the left is Nola Silzer.  She is a lawyer who now works for the Victoira area law firm of McKimm Lott,  a law firm with close linkages to the Liberal Party of Canada.  In 2001, Nola Silzer worked for Themis Program Mamagement and Consulting Ltd.  According to her online biography she was also "a senior policy analyst responsible for family court matters in the Court Services Branch of the Ministry of Attorney General".

In August/September 2001, Nola Silzer was caught using a false and fraudulent affidavit against a so-called "dead beat dad" in legal proceedings in the Supreme Court of British Columbia.  That was a big mistake.  She thought she got away with it but the "dead beat dad" decided to publicize the facts - far and wide - and she soon resigned from the Attorney General's office and joined McKimm Lott.  When a lawyer knowingly uses a false affidavit in a court proceeding, he or she commits the crime of obstruction of justice and could be subject to criminal sanction of up to 14 years but in Canada, the Attorney General decides who gets prosecuted and who doesn't, so Nola Silzer did not get prosecuted but instead, took a job at McKimm Lott.

Brent Hird - Another Maximus Themis Lawyer Caught In Dirty Tricks

The list of dirty tricks by Themis/Maximus gangster lawyers is almost endless.  

This post will intruduce the reader to Brent Hird, a lawyer who works for the Themis/Maximus gangsters on Vancouver Island, on the coast of British Columbia, across the waters from the city of Vancouver. 

Brent Hird was caught trying to enter into the court records, a fraudulent Court Order that would have permitted the Themis/ Maximus Gangsters to put an innocent citizen in jail for two days each month.

When he was caught in the middle of his corrupt activities, Brent Hird said "it was all a big mistake". 

Sure, right, a big mistake by a supposedly competent lawyer who knew exactly what he was doing??  Yeah, sure, Brent.  A big mistake, just like all the other fraud carried out by the Themis/Maximus gangster lawyers.

Background investigations have revealed that Brent Hird has been accused of improper dealings in other cases where Themis is a party.
 
If any of you readers have a current photo of Brent Hird, we would be grateful if you would contact Dead Dad by sending your contact points through the comments section so Dead Dad can post a photo of his tormentor online and everyone can recognize Brent Hird when they go to court and they will be careful not to be tricked by him.

Maximus/Themis lawyer, Joanne Platt, accused of Obstruction of Justice.

Photo Wanted 

The crimes by the Themis/Maximus Corporation get nastier and nastier.  On August 22, 2008, Themis/Maximus Canada Inc. employee, Joanne Platt, was witnessed, attempting to secretly influence a British Columbia judge during a court proceeding, by secret gestures and sign language, while she was sitting at the back of the courtroom where she thought she was not observed.

Unfortunately, for Joanne Platt, several witnesses observed what she was doing and they have sworn affidavits about her conduct and those affidavits are now on record with RCMP, the Victoria City Police, and the Minister of Justice, in Ottawa.  Joanne Platt must have some friends in high office because no charges have been brought against her,  Themis and Maximus lawyers, James Sullivan and David Frances have refused to respond to requests for an investigation and Maximus Inc., in the USA, although advised of the corruption in Canada, has continued to turn a blind eye to the crookedness of its subsidiary company.

Information Commissioner Orders Maximus Canada Inc. To Disclose Secrets

Leah Hollins 

The dirty dealings of Maximus Canada Inc. are gathering increased attention by other interested parties.

In a ruling by Cecilia Francis with the British Columbia Information and Privacy Commissioner, on June 18 2010, and after years of legal battles, the B.C. government was ordered to reveal the full text of its controversial contract with Maximus BC Health Inc., a susbisiary of Maximus Canada Inc., for the delivery of MSP and PharmaCare services.  It also must disclose to the public any fines imposed on Maximus regarding its performance level.

The application was bitterly resisted, both by the Government of BC and Maximus Canada Inc.  The contracts were signed in November, 2004, and would have been approved by the BC Ministry of Health where Leah Hollins was a long time employee and had been the Deputy Minister of Health until, we believe, sometime in 2001.  Friends helping friends.

Maximus Canada & Themis, & Brian Pollick, Leah Hollins, and David Flaherty.

WHO ARE DAVID FLAHERTY, LEAH HOLLINS, AND BRIAN POLLICK?

David Flaherty 

David Flaherty was, at one time, the Information and Privacy Commissioner for the Government of British Columbia where he was a major player in the cover up of illegal activity by insiders with the British Columbia Government in relation to bulk water exports.  See the Water War Crimes web site for background at http://www.waterwarcrimes.com/.

David Flaherty is the brother of Canada's Finance Minister, Jim Flaherty, who is a member of Canadian Prime Minister, Stephen Harper's cabinet.

Leah Hollins 

Leah Hollins is a former Deputy Minister of Health for British Columbia.  According to her online biography, Leah Hollins was a government insider for a long time with experience on a number of national, provincial, and private sector boards.

At the present time, Leah Hollins is said to "enjoy a reputation of openness, integrity, high ethical standards, and a passion for the value of the public service enabling support and confidence of politicians, employees and stakeholders to be gained".

Ms. Hollins is a Director of Maximus BC Health Benefit Operation, Inc.

Leah Hollins was appointed by Prime Minister Harper to the Veterans Affairs Departmental Audit Committee, in April 2008.  The Veterans had better be careful because if Leah Hollins imports her tactics from Maximus to Veteans Affairs, a lot of lives will be destroyed.

Brian Pollick

As described in a previous post, Brian Pollick was one of the insiders with the British Columbia Ministry of the Attorney General who, along with Leah Hollins, and with the assistance of British Columbia Attorney General, Brian Smith, managed to acquire a lucrative asset from the British Columbia Government.  Pollick and Hollins subseqently sold that asset for an undisclosed sum to Maximus Canada Inc.

Hollins and Pollick have hired Brian Smith's son, Christopher Smith, of Victoria, BC, to lobby the British Columbia government to insure their company remains profitable.

Interested readers are encouraged to learn more about the Government insiders who have profited by sweetheart deals between Maximus and the British Columbia government by visiting Hidden Mysteries Editorial at http://www.hiddenmysteries.org/editorial/jan2005/01-14-05.html.

Is Themis Program Management and Consulting Ltd. a Thief? We Think So and Maybe You Can Help Us Prove It.

As we began our investigation of Themis, we found that Themis would hold back money it received from a payor, usually a father, at the beginning of the month, from his pay check that was deposited directly into their bank, so there was no issue of checks having to clear the bank, and hold onto that money for as long as possible right up to just before the next payment by the payor.

Themis was keeping the money for two, almost three weeks, and sometimes a month.

We don't yet know if this was a widespread practice and we are conducting more inquiries to check it out. 

If it was a widespread practice then you can bet Themis was making a whole pile of interest on the money it was keeping in its bank accounts that belonged to parents to help support their children.

With electronic transfers there is no need to hold money for even a single minute.  But Themis was holding it for weeks or longer.

If you have been in a case like this please contact us and let us know some of your details and keep all your banking records.

We are thinking of a class action lawsuit against Themis that could bankrupt the company and put a whole bunch of its executives and employees in jail because that interest doesn't belong to Themis and taking it is theft.

Was Themis Godfather, Brian Smith, A Crook? You Be The Judge!

In our post on December 26, 2010, we told you that Brian Smith was the Attorney General of British Columbia when one of the people working in the Attorney General 's office, Brian Pollick, set up Themis Program Mamagement and Consulting Ltd. and acquired the rights to the British Columbia Family Maintenance Enforcement Program.  

This is what is called  a "sweetheart deal" or "an inside job".  The insider Brian Pollick gets to buy the asset.  In a speech to the legislature, Brian Smith insisted the whole deal was above board and there was no cheating going on but we don't beleive him one little bit because Brain Smith was Attorney General of British Columbia when that Ministry was involved in the Canada's Greatest Scandal - The Water War Crimes.

The Water War Crimes were very active when Brian Smith was Attorney General for British Columbia and while we can't positively say Brian Smith was "on the take" something sure smells rotten because 20 days after the Government of British ColumbIa Ministry of the Attorney General signed a crooked deal to give preferential, unfair treatment to W.C.W. Western Canada Water Enterprises Ltd.  a company with friends in the governnent in Ottawa and Victoria, Brian Smith announced he was leaving politics to join Canada's government railway, CN Rail, as Chairman of the Board.

Lots of money

On Spetember 29, 1989, four days after the deal was signed, two of Canada's major law firms closed a major insider trading transaction that saw 4.1 million shares in W.C.W. Western Canada Water Enterrprises Ltd. go to a special group of investors and about one half of that went to institutions in England that held the shares for others.  These people stood to make a lot of money based on inside information.  We are not saying the people on the investors lists were guilty of a crime but their brokers and lawyers waited for deal to close before the transaction was closed and it sure looks like Brian Smith took a reward from the Government in Ottawa.  However, it is theoretically possible Brian Smith was appointed Chairman of the Board of CN Rail because he had lots of railway experience playing with his toy trains as a kid.  At the time Brain Smith was appointed, Glen Shortliffe was the Deputy Minister of Transport in Ottawa  who would have approved the appointment and, by co-incidence Glen Shortliffe dropped dead from a sudden unexpected heart attack on May 6, 2010 or at least that is what the Globe and Mail called it.

Allan Gregg

So, you may be asking who was W.C.W. Western Canada Water Enterprises Ltd. that they got such a benefit from the BC Government and Brian Smith was rewarded with a nice job at CN Rail that included use of a praivate rail car?  Well, look no further, because on the Board of Directions of  W.C.W. Western Canada Water Enterprises Ltd. was a guy named Allan Gregg who often appears on CBC Television and who has his own web site.

But let's be fair to Allan Gregg, he did not act alone.  There was a whole group of people assisting W.C.W. Western Canada Water Enterprises Ltd. who could go to jail except the police in Canada  only pick on small guys like Basi and Virk who got caught in the CN Rail deal that involved BC Premier Gordon Campbell and his pal Patrick Kinsella.

Patrick Kinsella

Partick Kinsella has been around BC politics for a very long time.  He worked for Bill Bennett, Bill Vander Zalm and Gordon Campbell.  He knows where all the skeletons are buried and he probably buried a few himself.

Now you are probably asking, so what makes all of this relate to Themis?  Well what you need to know is that Themis is owned by a company called Maximus Inc. as a result of a deal wheere Maximus bought shares in Themis for a whole pile of money and the owners of Themis got rich off the backs of children and  fathers and mothers who were screwed by and who continue to be screwed by Themis and, according to recent reports Brian Smith's son, Christopher Smith, is a registered under the Lobbyist Registration Act in British Columbia to be a registered lobbyist for Maximus.  How convenient??

 Edwards, Ebbels and Shortliffe 

There are a couple of guys, Robert Edwards and Jack Ebbels who were senior people at the British Columbia Ministry of the Attorney General from 1985 to 1993 who could tell us a lot about the deal that saw Brian Pollick set up Themis and aquire the Family Maintenance Enforcement Program and Brian Smith suddenly leave for CN Rail but, by another co-incidence Robert Edwards and Jack Ebbels both died from sudden heart attacks in the past couple of years when their involvement in these issues was published and they were seen as a liability.  Now, we aren't accusing Brian Pollick or Brian Smith of murder but we do think that there is good chance that Robert Edwards, Jack Ebbels and Glen Shortliffe were murdered because they knew a lot and now they can't talk - can they?

How Themis Was Created - Early History - Brian Pollick and Brian Smith.

Themis Program Management and Consulting Ltd. was created in 1988 as a "special project" by British Columbia Attorney General Brian Smith.   According to reliable sources, the Ministry of the Attorney General for British Colummbia has been one of the leading orgainzed crime groups in Canada.
The following is a quotation from the Debates of the Legislative Assembly 1988 Legislative Session: 2nd Session, 34th Parliament

HON. B.R. SMITH:  "Yesterday the member for Esquimalt-Port Renfrew (Mr. Sihota) asked a question of the Premier concerning conflict-of-interest guidelines, and [ Page 5332 ] question was deferred to me.  The question concerned Themis Program Management and Consulting Ltd., the successful bidder in a contract with the family maintenance enforcement program, and one Brian Pollick.  After I was in possession of further information, I thought I should bring a full answer back to this House.

The allegation made by the member for Esquimalt-Port Renfrew in his question was that there was a breach of the ministerial guidelines, in that Mr. Pollick, a senior public office-holder, had, within the preceding six-month period, access to information not available to the general public which he could use for personal gain. I'm happy to advise the House that that interpretation of those guidelines is absolutely erroneous and not supported by the facts.

The facts are, just very briefly, that Mr. Pollick worked in my ministry as director of a maintenance enforcement pilot project during 1985, resigned in July 1986 and then became director of the special projects division of my ministry. During that period he did not have responsibilities for maintenance enforcement.  Maintenance enforcement was separate, and a new maintenance enforcement act was put into planning stage in 1987, and was introduced and passed in late 1987.

The process to find out who would do the bid in this contract was in accordance with the exemplary guidelines of the privatization program. I say exemplary because everyone in my ministry was told that if they wished to bid for anything like this, they would have to announce it, take leaves of absence and step down when they prepared their bids.

Pollick, who had nothing to do with and no special knowledge of this program for over a year and a half, followed those guidelines.  He went forward and submitted his credentials to the privatization branch, and he made his bid. All proper procedures were followed by him. He took a leave of absence to make his bid in November 1987, the day the request for proposals was issued. He had no special knowledge of the tendering process. He had nothing to do with the drafting of the legislation, and no special considerations were given to him.  In fact, every effort was made during the whole thing to avoid the appearance and fact of any conflict of interest.

I state those things not to try and justify my role as a minister under that guideline, because I don't think that guideline applies at all to someone in this position.  I stand to simply set the record straight for Mr. Pollick, because I think that when good public servants like Mr. Pollick and Miss Gifford - who had nothing to do with this project, but is a partner in it - come forward with creative bids to try and do things in the private sector that we may sometimes do in government, they should be encouraged and not have slurs thrown at them. They should be encouraged in that process , and we should not be using good public servants like that as sticks to beat the privatization program or for some argument about ministerial guidelines, because it's not applicable.  I hope the member - because I know he's fair-minded - will correct the statements he made".

Comment: So, Brian Pollick working for the Brian  Smith, then Attorney General of British Columbia, bid on and bought the Government Program that has been accused of collecting child support money, holding it in the bank, for as long as it can to collect interest, and then, finally, pays it out, at the last moment, after profitting from starving mothers and children.

And Brian Smith . . . wants the Legislature, our representatives, to believe that Brian Pollick didn't know anything about the program when he bid on it.    

Well, I don't believe Brian Smith for one little minute because he was one of the key players in the Water War Crimes, one of the greatest crooked deals in Canadian history.

The Work of Destroying Themis Program Management and Consulting Ltd. begins.

This blog is dedicated to exposing the one of Canada's greatest human rights violators, Themis Program Management and Consulting Ltd.,  a company with a genuine gestapo mentaility that operates the Family Maintenance Enforcement Program in British Columbia on behalf of Raymond Ruddy and his billion dollar company, Maximus Inc.

We need your help.

The people who operate Themis and Maximus are bad - real bad - they need to be exposed for what they have done.  We want your stories and submissions.

We want information about every one of the employees of Maximus and Themis.  All information, good and bad is useful.

That information will be added to our databases and we will be able to track abuses by individual employees of Maximus and Themis and use that information to assist innocent victims of Maximus and Themis obtain redress.

So if you have any information, pass it along and let's get the job done and destroy these companies and the people who have profitted from harming innocent men, women, and especially children, in Canada.
