    ATTORNEY AT LAW P.O. Box 192

    Athens, Georgia 30603 [email protected]

    (706) 207 6982 The Honorable Sam Olens Attorney General of Georgia 40 Capitol Square, SW Atlanta, Georgia 30334-1300

    March 20, 2015 Dear Attorney General Olens, I am respectfully writing to request that you correct and retract knowingly false and defamatory statements made to the Georgia media intended to injure me in my professional reputation. In response to my request to Governor Nathan Deal to appoint a special attorney general to investigate the criminal allegations in the RICO actions I have filed against the Attorney General and the Board of Regents, you and your agents responded in place of the Governor that I was wasting the time of the Attorney Generals office with attention-seeking gimmicks and claims that are frivolous and nonsensical. These statements were made to and published by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution on November 9, 2014. In September of 2014, you and your agents also made comments to the media that the allegations of the complaints I filed were outlandish conspiracy theories. These statements are knowingly false given the documentation of the allegations in your possession. You and your agents called me an outlandish conspiracy theoristthat I know of--both to CBS-TV and WABE Radio. On their face, these false statements injure my reputation and expose me to public ridicule, and are clearly intended to do so. They can not be considered fair statements made in good faith, in light of the voluminous evidence in possession of the Attorney Generals office contradicting themsome of which evidence documents wrongdoing by the Attorney Generals office itself, which heighten the level of inherent bad faith. These statements were made despite the documentation in your possession supporting the allegations of these complaints, and despite the fact that your office had admitted in court pleadings many of the criminal RICO predicate acts alleged in

    the Complaints. All allegations in the complaints are, as you know, supported by authenticated USG records. Therefore, I am formally requesting you to correct and retract these and any other knowingly false statements made to the media, or published to any other third party, concerning my professional conduct and reputation in the manner required by law. Thank you for your attention to this important matter.
