Expose Corruption & Abuse of Power, Fire Judge Dennis Wiley!!

The Issue

For Years we as citizens of Michigan's, Berrien County & others have been subject to District Court Judge Dennis Wiley's corruption, abuse of power, over sentencing & more. We have grown well tired of it and it going unheard, unpunished & not dealt with. It is at this time that we as citizens want Michigan's proper authority figures to step up and make things happen to both justify and rectify this situation that has been so blindly over looked. Judge Wiley has already been sanctioned a couple times publicly for abuse or misuse of power and/or over sentencing. However; I am here to explain those were just stepping stones. I am but one case of many where Judge Dennis Wiley abused his power to charge me with a crime that i clearly should not have been charged for when there are many more just like me whether they sit free this day or are still behind the walls of the MDOC. Stories will come forth..some might be false but the fair share will valid arguments and evidence backing them. I will explain my cases and then i will explain what we as citizens would ask to be done about it! In 2007 i was charged with a felony i admitted to committing but was never informed of a 7-4-11 doctrine by court appointed attorney Mr. Ernest White nor Judge Charles LaSata which furthermore would have knocked the felony off my record after completion of sentencing since it was my first charge ever(obviously first felony). That being said in 2012 i was picked up for another felony at which time i had no clue i had committed. I gave a ride to a family member and his friend whom had a few electronics with them, i received ten dollars for the ride at said time. Later to find out upon police contact that the electronics were part of a prior felonious act on their part. I (now being aware of the situation) took accountability for what I done and acknowledged my vehicle was the transportation to the electronics, nothing more. Keeping in mind i had no knowledge to the prior incident, i didn't think i would be charged. However; the powers of the Berrien County Courthouse decided differently and issued charges for home invasion, felony accessory after the fact & more due to my prior felony that shouldn't have still been on record(noted earlier). For a crime committed i had no knowledge of i now found myself facing up to 15 years in prison standing in front of Judge Dennis M. Wiley. At Pre-trial conference (because i turned myself in) bond was set at $10,000 cash surety or 10% & Tether monitoring. My bondsman posted the cash and i walked away (again thinking it would be dropped). When i returned for my 2nd pre-trial conference (evidence hearing) the prosecutors had but 1 of its 2 witnesses and no other physical evidence. At which time the witness committed perjury on the stand and Judge Wiley notably & acknowledged mad that i might "get off scott free" then used the perjured testimony to not only bond over pending charges but added more, revoked current bail and raised it to $25,000 cash with mandatory tether monitoring stipulations assuming i made bail which made my charges equate to 33yrs in prison. Again my bondsman offered up payment whilst everyone including myself, family, patrons and bondsman included were astonished and mad that he just did that with no legal reasoning for such a thing. However; even offered up bail Judge Wiley was so notably mad he denied me bail until the following morning so i was forced to spend a night in jail. (As Judge Wiley got up and walked off Bench myself and several other patrons noticed he himself was on Alcohol Tether Monitoring bracelet.)  The next morning i got out and continued pursuing my innocence. At the first day of trial i had refused all plea attempts to this point and i also requested a change of judge due to Judge Wiley abusing his power at that point which he denied immediately and only mad him more mad at everything because right after that, the witness who perjured himself in pre-trial openly admitted to it on this day and told the truth which backed my story 100% and the other "witness" never did appear for reasons still unknown. Being in possession of criminal justice myself i knew that right then the case should have been thrown out due to insufficient lack of evidence if nothing else. But; unfortunately Judge Dennis Wiley again didn't think so, right there in open court he charged the witness with perjury(rightfully) but then persisted to tell me if he had anything to say about it i was going to prison in open court. My court appointed attorney who is friends with Judge Wiley said absolutely nothing this entire time, no objections or nothing, the prosecutor said she was gonna file a motion to drop charges and Judge Wiley said no. Case proceedings went on and i ended up charged with felony accessory and was made pay restitution, do 8 months on Department of Corrections Tether Monitoring with a 24 a day curfew, and 2 years felony probation. I completed tether and much like my first charge completed all requirements early and was released from supervision early! However; this has had a devastating effect on my life. I have a law degree i cant use nor pay off because i am a convicted felon (when the first one should of been expunged and the 2nd shouldn't have even been plausible nor carried out), i have been denied hundred of jobs including but not limited to security details down to McDonalds because of these felonies thanks to the abuse of power and corruption under Judge Dennis Wiley and the ill informed natures of Attorney Ernest White & Judge LaSata. So instead of being able to be the full productive citizen that i can be i am limited to SSI and in debt up to my eyeballs for a degree i cant use. That is just my personal issue, Berrien County has one of the nations leading lowest combination "extremely low employment rate & felony convictions" and I'm sure if you investigate Judge Dennis M. Wiley some of those convictions including my own will be overturned which will not only put a stop to current and further corruption like Judge Wiley it will also shed light on a dimmed community and give room to increase employment rate & lower conviction rate. District Court Judge Dennis M. Wiley is not the upstanding Judge he swore to be nor that you think he is and i know i am not the only case this kind of abuse of power, corruption, & illegal sentencing applies too. He has other noted instances where he was sanctioned, as well as being sentenced & even sentencing himself to Alcohol Tethering for multiple DUI/DWI offenses which by all rights should have landed him in prison himself due to Michigan's 3 strike rule which turns 3 misdemeanor charges into a felony that carries prison sentences. He even presided and ruled over criminal cases while on tether himself (which i noted earlier as well) which i do believe is illegal as well a was pictured gambling and drinking at Four Winds Casino whilst on tether for one of those DUI/DWI. It is at this time that we ask those that have the power (Governor Rick Snyder, Congressman Fred Upton & Michigan State Attorney General Bill Schuette) to open a full investigation on Judge Dennis M. Wiley and the cases he has presided over since receiving his first DUI/DWI charge! During this investigation any wrong doing, abuse of power, wrongful conviction, over sentencing, etc. should be corrected to their fullest. Whether prison time lowered, convictions overturned, etc. We also ask that among your findings you not only fire Judge Wiley but Charge him with what he has done and make him susceptible to honest & swift Justice!!!!!!!!!!
