January 29, 1998: Whistle blower informed me concerning secret (conspiracy) meeting at Fircrest City Hall between neighbors, police, and city officials and was infiltrated by Karen's attorney.
Transcript from attorney notes:
David M Viafore, Police Chief Kenoyer, City Manager Richards, City Attorney Smith, Bill & Pam Hannon,
Kristine & Kenneth Walls, and James Monroe boasted about what they had done to Karen Lawson and me.
City Attorney Smith boasted of "hiding evidence" of Lawson's dogs being grand-fathered.
Bill & Pam Hannon and Kristine & Kenneth Walls were particularly vicious, and angry because city officials promised registering (Without Legal Authority) me as a sex offender would guarantee I would go with the dogs.
Bill Hannon, "We believed that if we took away her dogs he would also go!"
Pam Hannon, "We believed what lives next door would go with the dogs!"
Kristine Walls, "For my husband Kenneth and me this has always been about property values!"
Kenneth Walls, "It was a done deal! We got sold down the river!"
Mayor Viafore, "Dan Collins is ninety percent of the problem! This will come before planning department again, and again!"
Police Chief Kenoyer, "If any of you have a problem with Collins, contact me on my cell phone and I'll handle Dan Collins personally!"
Kenoyer gave neighbors his cell phone number.
Attorney said because of the vicious content of conspirators he had concerns for my personal safety.
After the meeting Police Chief Kenoyer was confronted by the attorney.
Police Chief Kenoyer, "I was pressured to register Collins as a sex offender. I might have acted hastily.
We believed it would be easier to force him to leave Fircrest."
Police Chief Kenoyer was pressured by (neighbors) Viafore, Bill & Pam Hannon and Kristine & Kenneth Walls.
1997-2026 _ Neighbors on Paradise Parkway over-reacted to vindictive gossip. Demanded I be forced to leave Fircrest. Neighbors and city officials discovered the truth, knew they were wrong, rather than admit (fearing lawsuit) they were wrong, intensified their criminal behavior.
Bogus Dog variance in belief if they took away Karen Lawson’s Dogs I would also go. Zero compassion for Karen and her Dog family. Thirty years of city and police sanctioned threats and vandalism followed.
January 1997 - 2026:
Fircrest City Council & Police Department sanctioned and covered-up civil rights and felony crimes in efforts to force me to leave Fircrest.
Aggressive neighbors threw rocks, timber, and steel rods at windows and on top of house to start dogs barking, and phoned Viafore with Humane Society arriving to harass me.
Steel spikes were tossed onto to the front lawn so I would injure myself mowing the lawn.
Neighbors repeatedly knocked down the mailbox.
Neighbors kicked the garage door (leaving their footprints) to set dogs barking, and phoned Viafore with Humane Society arriving to harass me.
Neighbors repeatedly tore down No Trespassing signs.
Neighbors opened gate at night so dogs would get out. We found three of our dogs two blocks away.
Neighbor Kenneth Walls poisoned three of my dogs.
Neighbor Kenneth Walls threw a poisoned rat into the backyard (photo).
Neighbor Kenneth Walls threw a hand full of poison mushroon into the back yard (photo).
Neighbors pulled saplings out of the ground by their roots and mowed-down flower beds.
Someone used a commercial highway grade pressure washer to remove topsoil from front lawn.
Neighbors and Viafore's thugs defaced and tore down information signs.
Neighbors would "telegraph" a pending property destruction raid by going to the end of their driveways.
Karen Lawson and I were accosted on the street in front of our residence and threatened with physical harm and death threats (1998-99 & 2003).
Regardless of physical evidence of property destruction, videos of crimes in progress, tape recorded confrontations with aggressive neighbors’ police always said "Dan it never happened".
"Paradise Parkway is heavily populated with City Hall employees and "friends" of City Hall. Police Department wired five lines on my street into my residence phone.
Events in 2011 and 2017 (police burglary) indicate wiretaps were in place "prior" to 2011 and 2017 (possibly through February 2025 when phone was disconnected).
Illegal wiretaps: Neighbors and police knew Karen and I both had to be out of the house on a Dog emergency. Detective Deal had too much information and details I did not provide. Detective Deal and Chief Cheesman cooperated with Viafore to steal Election Year evidence. They stole the wrong safe.
Karen was not emotionally wired to handle the constant stress, dread, anxiety, fear, threats of physical harm, death threats, property destruction, sanctioned by David M. Viafore, City Council, Jerry Foss, Norm Gustin, hostile and aggressive neighbors, Bill & Pam Hannon and Krisitine & Kenneth Walls and corrupt Fircrest Police Department under James Kenoyer and John Cheesman.

Black’s Law Dictionary:
CONSPIRACY: 1997-2026 _ Status - Active.
A combination or confederacy between two or more persons formed for the purpose of committing, by their efforts, some unlawful or criminal act, or some act which is lawful in itself, but becomes unlawful when done by the concerted action of the conspirators, or for the purpose of using criminal or unlawful means to the commission of an act not in itself unlawful.
A person is guilty of conspiracy with another person or persons to commit a crime if with the purpose of promoting or facilitating its commission he: agrees with such other person or persons that they or one or more of them will engage in conduct which constitutes such crime or an attempt or solicitation to commit such crime; or agrees to aid such other person or persons in the planning or commission of such crime or of an attempt or solicitation to commit such crime.
A conspiracy may be a continuing one [1997-2025 Status Active]; actors may drop out, and others drop in; details of the operation may change from time to time; the members need not know each other or the part played by others; a member need not know all details of the plan or operations; he must, however, know the purpose of the conspiracy and agree to become a party to a plan to effectuate that purpose.
COLOR OF LAW:
The appearance or semblance, without the substance, of legal right. After Viafores' illegal backdoor sex offender registration Washington State sealed my file and vacated my United States Constitutional right to be represented by an attorney.
BRIBE
Any valuable thing given or promised, or any preferment, advantage, privilege, or emolument, given or promised corruptly and against the law, as an inducement to any person acting in an official or legal capacity.
BRIBERY
In criminal law. The receiving or offering any undue reward by or to any person whomsoever, whose ordinary profession or business relates to the administration of public justice, in order to influence.
FRAME-UP
The term given to a plot intended to incriminate an innocent person in a crime.
CIVIL RIGHTS _ CIVIL RIGHTS DENIED
These are the rights that are granted to every citizen of the United States by the constitution and all its amendments. Equal protection is guaranteed to everyone regardless of race, color and creed.
COLOR OF LAW
The appearance or semblance, without the substance, of legal right.
LIBEL
Defamatory statements published through any manner or media. If intended to simply bring contempt, disrespect, hatred, or ridicule to a person or entity it is likely a civil breach of law. However, if it causes mayhem or breach of peace, it can be a criminal breach of law. Yet, again, if the statement is newsworthy, even if defamatory, proof of benefit to the public is required to avoid criminal complaint.
SLANDER
Oral defamation; the speaking of false and malicious words concerning another, whereby injury results to his reputation.
UNFAIR HEARING
A court hearing that is not carried out properly and according to the processes of the law.
See due process of law.
DUE PROCESS OF LAW
Law in its regular course of administration through courts of justice. Due process of law in each particular case means such an exercise of the powers of the government as the settled maxims of law permit and sanction, and under such safeguards for the protection of individual rights as those maxims prescribe for the class of cases to which the one in question belongs.
Whatever difficulty may be experienced in giving to those terms a definition which will embrace every permissible exertion of power affecting private rights, and exclude such as is forbidden, there can be no doubt of their meaning when applied to judicial proceedings.
They then mean a course of legal proceedings according to those rules and principles which have been established in our systems of jurisprudence for the enforcement and protection of private rights.
To give such proceedings any validity, there must be a tribunal competent by its constitution.
MISCONDUCT
Any unlawful conduct on the part of a person concerned in the administration of justice which is prejudicial to the rights of parties or to the right determination of the cause; as "misconduct of jurors,” “misconduct of an arbitrator.”
The term is also used to express a dereliction from duty, injurious to another, on the part of one employed in a professional capacity, as an attorney at law, or a public officer.
LEGAL DUTY
An obligation arising from contract of the parties or the operation of the law. That which the law requires to be done or forborne to a determinate person or the public at large, correlative to a vested and coextensive right in such person or the public, and the breach of which constitutes negligence.
MORAL COERCION
A term that means to exert extreme pressure on a person to make them do or not do a thing.
UNLAWFUL CONSPIRACY
A criminal offense where 2 or more people plan and act out an illegal act. See conspiracy.

The Beginning _ 1983 Framed to ruin my reputation and credibility as a witness.
June 1983 _ At my off-post residence a Pierce County Sheriff Detective and five uniformed deputies arrested me at gunpoint on a charge of first-degree rape.
The Detective allowed me to phone my attorney, Sverre Staurset.
He answered on the first ring.
Staurset, "Shut the fuck up and put the detective on the phone!"
Staurset knew I was going to be arrested.
Ten years after my arrest Staurset (foreign-born intelligence officer) admitted he participated in framing me.
He admitted accepting three bribes from State of Washington not to properly represent me and not sue the state.
December 1983 _ Attorney Staurset, “The judge and prosecutor know you were framed by the army. If you go back to the army, you will probably be killed. Plead guilty for six months of protective custody."
"In six months, you will be discharged from the army free to get on with your life.”
Black’s Law Dictionary
Protective Custody: The governments confinement of a person for that person’s own security or well-being, such as a witness whose safety is in jeopardy.”
January 1984 Pierce County Superior Court (judge-only trial).
Prosecutor attempted to "defend" me because my attorney would not.
Document dated December 8, 1983 _ Consensual sexual liaison, not criminally insane, not suffering from a major mental illness, army whistle blower.
Judge Healy refused to allow document into evidence.
Sentenced twenty-to-life on a locked ward for the criminally insane.
Prosecutor "refused" to sign disposition.
July 11, 1988 _ Six criminally insane prisoners attempted to beat me to death.
Bleeding profusely I was denied immediate medical care while staff held an emergency butt-covering meeting. Staff were aware I was a military intelligence warehoused prisoner.
One staff remarked, "We are all going to lose our jobs over this!"
August 8, 1988 _ Twenty-eight days after the attempt on my life I was released from confinement.
Director Vitols summoned me to his office.
"Dan we have known for several years (1983-1988) you were not a danger to yourself or to others. If you remained here we could no longer guarantee your safety."
Safer on the streets of Tacoma than in protective custody at Western State Hospital.
January 14, 1997 _ Pierce County Superior Court (probation release hearing).
Probation Officer Gallegos, "Your Honor it was a million-to-one fluke Mr. Collins was charged with this crime."
Judge Hogan, "Dan just get on with your life."

COLOR OF LAW
The appearance or semblance, without the substance, of legal right.
August 21, 1997 _ "Fircrest Election Year" based on vindictive gossip neighbors (17 households) demanded I be registered as a sex offender and forced to leave Fircrest. Mayor Viafore not wanting to piss off voters ordered Police Chief Kenoyer to issue written order to immediately register as a sex offender or face immediate arrest.
I was not allowed to consult with an attorney.
To block a lawsuit over Viafore's illegal backdoor registration, Washington State sealed my file and vacated my United States Constitutional right to be represented by an attorney.
Police Chief Kenoyer as Viafore's scapegoat was forced to resign.
