Hi.  My name is Norman Finkelstein. 
 
Most people know me as a defender of Palestinian rights. But not every injustice is world-historic. Sometimes we have to fight for the little guy who’s being shafted.
 
Today I am asking you to help defend a poor Guyanese immigrant who made good.
 
Rudolph Baldeo was a shipping clerk when he enrolled in my night class.Through a Herculean exertion of personal will he became a medical doctor.

In April 2016 Dr Baldeo contacted me with a horrifying story. 
 
He had fallen prey to a couple of Long Island lawyers named Michael Chetkof and Allyson Burger. 
 
They concocted this grotesque story that he was a psychopath who had committed “countless” acts of “unspeakable violence.”
 
I sat down to read the entire Court record.  I sat in the Courthouse during the trial.
 
I was shocked. It was a transparent frame-up! 
 
Their Court testimony flagrantly contradicted their written submissions to the Court.  (See www.NormanFinkelstein.com for irrefutable proof of their lies.)
 
When I told these vulture-lawyers that I was writing an article to expose the shakedown, they threatened to “open Pandora’s Box” and destroy Dr Baldeo “Personally and Professionally.”
 
Michael Chetkof and Allyson Burger are blackmailing Dr Baldeo to silence me.
 
I have already filed a complaint with the Supreme Court Appellate Division,  Attorney Grievance Committee.
 
I AM ASKING YOU TO SIGN THIS PETITION IN SUPPORT OF MY COMPLAINT AGAINST CHETKOF AND BURGER.
 
PREYING ON IMMIGRANTS IS WRONG! PERJURY IS WRONG! BLACKMAIL IS WRONG!
