HOW BAD IS IT?

“I HAD TO FLEE KANSAS IN FEAR OF MY LIFE … FOR COOPERATING IN THE INVESTIGATION OF A MURDER OF A … GIRL BEING SEX TRAFFICKED BEFORE SHE WAS KILLED. PLEASE, PLEASE, HELP ME PLEASE.”

“THE CORRUPTION IS NOT ONLY IN OUR POLICE STATION BUT ALL THROUGHOUT THE UNIFIED GOVERNMENT AND THE BOARD OF PUBLIC UTILITIES.”

“IN KANSAS CITY KANSAS THE POLICE FAILED TO CONDUCT A INVESTIGATION AND PUT ME IN JAIL ON HEARSAY AND NO PHYSICAL EVIDENCE…”

“SUPERVISORS ABUSED THEIR POSITION BY MAKING SEXUAL ADVANCES TOWARDS FEMALE DEPUTIES AND CIVILIAN STAFF. THEY USED THEIR POSITION TO INTIMIDATE OTHERS, ESPECIALLY PEOPLE OF COLOR. IT WAS ALSO DIFFICULT TO GO TO WORK WHEN YOUR SUPERVISOR WAS CLEARLY UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF ALCOHOL.”

"Report me to who? The police? I am the police.”

“My sister's dead. My cousin's dead. My life has been ruined. The Unified Government, Kansas City, Kansas, did me wrong.”

“...we watched our friends and families die and disappear and without any help, without being able to cry out to anybody…”

“You would think that they were talking about the Mafia. Drugs, murders, trafficking minors and women. Every crime you can think of. That government looked like they supported it. And the police were involved in it. There was no where you could go for refuge from that…”

“When Golubski was asked in a 2020 deposition in a civil suit if he’d ever raped an underage girl in his cop car, or had a lucrative side hustle in drugs and prostitution, or investigated a crime he himself had committed, he invoked his Fifth Amendment right not to incriminate himself. He did that 555 times in a single sitting.” 

“Golubski also contends that in 1997 the state of the law did not provide him with ‘fair warning’ that he could be held criminally liable under 18 U.S.C. § 242 when using his badge of authority to engage in kidnapping and/or sexual abuse.”

“...Golubski argued at the [motion to dismiss] hearing . . . that at the time [of the alleged crimes] there was no substantive due process right to avoid being raped or kidnapped by a state actor.”
