An Open Letter: Matthew C. Becker, Franklin County Prosecuting Attorney

Dear Mr. Becker,

I recently saw you on the television speaking about how you were satisfied with the ten year sentence in the Hernandez case.

Perhaps I misunderstood your statement. How can you be OK with a ten year sentence in a case that resulted in the death of a mother in the prime of her life and her husband suffering serious injury? Is the Wilson family satisfied with the sentence? ____________________________ "In a society of criminals the innocent man goes to jail." – Phillip K. Dick.

Mr. Becker, How can you justify my thirty year sentence and have no problem with ten years in a case that resulted in a death and serious injury?

I have been in prison some 4500 days, that is well over 12 years and I have harmed no one. I was the only one injured (shot twice in the head, twice in the chest). Take a look at the Emergency Room pictures of me!

Folsom was not injured. There was no criminal intent, on my part. The audio and videotape, reveal that I was praying and praising the Lord on the way to pick up my printing equipment that Folsom told me that he had been ordered by the Supreme Court to return to me.

I was not plotting an assault, I thought that I was getting my property returned.

I understand that you brought up a few concerns when you were approached to bring this manifest injustice back to court in July of 2023 by Ms. Perske.

Such as, I allegedly said that I was going to shoot Folsom in the head in a video that I recorded after the illegal search warrant.

We can't find that video. Was that entered into evidence by your predecessor at trial? I don't recall seeing it. That would a powerful piece of evidence to leave out of the trial!

You also had a question as to how many guns where in my Subaru, (a shotgun and another hand gun). If my intention was to assault Folsom, wouldn't I exit with the shotgun, not a pistol in a retention holster?

Professor Sean O'Brien my lawyer, filed the Habeas in late October that the Supreme Court (SC 100827 ) dismissed on Christmas eve without a hearing or reason, as did the Circuit and Appeals Court.

I have yet to have a post conviction hearing despite being in six courts. So much for due process!

Obviously the Courts are concerned about the video that I had posted on 8-17-12, despite the fact, I was found not guilty of tampering with Judge Parker by Judge Sutherland.

Their refusal to remedy this travesty, is proof positive that the Courts are not upholding the Constitution, they are only concerned about protecting their self interests.

You were made aware of the numerous Brady violations in my sham trial, in October of 2013.

Along with the Brady violations, Parks put a pathological liar on the stand, a Naphue violation.

In ethical prosecution's there is a crime in search of a name. In my prosecution, which was nothing more than lawfare, Parks had a name in search of a crime.

The search warrant he signed off on August 22, 2012, was based on the lie that Sgt Folsom told Judge Hoven that he smelled marijuana.

His partner testified in deposition, that he did not smell anything. Thus there was no probable cause.

The fraudulent warrant was served by Troopers from the Highway patrol without notifying the Franklin County Sheriff, a violation of RSMO 043.200.

The fruit from this poison tree was used to obtain the arrest warrant Parks gave to Folsom on 9 11 of 2012.

Instead of Folsom simply telling me that there was a warrant for my arrest (I had never failed to appear), he told a lie to lure me into an ambush.

Before he lied and then tried to kill me, he was under investigation for departing from the truth by his superiors at the Patrol. Parks should have known the character of his star witness.

He had Folsom's report taken the day after the bad shoot and the audio that was recorded by my ex wife. That clearly contradict his claim that he told me that "he had papers for me to sign" and that he commanded me to take my hand off my lawfully carried, legally owned sidearm.

Parks also had statements from the five eye witnesses who saw me fall face first with my hands empty. Enough evidence to charge Folsom, not me!

The only ones who maintained that I attempted to draw were the ones who unleashed six rounds striking me twice in the chest, and twice in the head. The last shot, fired at my head was pancaked into the gravel. For that to have happened, Folsom had to have shot while I was on the ground!

Folsoms partner Mertens had a different statement as to how far my firearm made it out of the retention holster that Folsom had alleged. At trial both of the Troopers claim that my holster was on my right side over twenty times.

The still shot taken from the watch video that show the holster on my left hip. I could not buckle my seatbelt with the holster on the right side!

Had the jury known what you have known for years, I would have been acquitted. To wit: that Folsom had PTSD and was a pathological liar, a perjurer, had failed numerous fitness for duty evaluations.

He lied about being on medical leave when he had been fired. Henry Folsom is a totally unreliable witness. Your predecessor knew this though. The only thing that mattered to him was to get a conviction, not justice!

You have the power to correct this injustice. Let us pray that you will do the right thing and bring this back to Court.

"He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD." Prov 17:15

"Be not be merciful but be just, for mercy is bestowed upon the guilty criminal, while justice is all that the innocent man requires." – Khalil Gibran

"Because they regard not the works of the Lord, nor the operations of his hand, He shall destroy them and not build them up." Psalm 28:5.

It is my prayer that you will regard His work and move to set me free, in Jesus name!"

Dear Mr. Becker, would you please correct the most manifest injustice in the history of Missouri?

Sincerely, Jeffrey Rains Weinhaus
