My Family's Home and it's contents were STOLEN by the Isabella County Sheriff's Department ! ! !
May 1, 2012
Why? How?
No Receipt... No Due Process! No legal justification what-so-ever!
Isabella County Sheriff's Department employee Shelly Sweet conspired with Isabella County Sheriff's Deputy Clinton Steinert, to force my family out of our home under threat of arrest and under color of law and color of office. Both Steinert and Sweet intentionally and deliberately concealed the fact that they were co-workers of the Isabella County Sheriff's Department and went out of their way to describe how they knew one another, at the scene, from somthing that happened years prior. Sweet had sold her home to us and then changed her mind and used the Isabella County Sheriff's Department to take the home back along with it's contents by force under threat of arrest.
Not only did the Sheriff's Department take our home by force and deliver it into the possession of Sweet, The Isabella County Sheriff's Department also allowed Sweet and her boyfriend Robert Wheeler to steal the contents of our home directly in front of and with the permission of Isabella County Sheriff's Deputy Clinton Steinert and his actions were sanctioned by the leaders of his department!

When brought to the attention of undersheriff John Tellis, I was told that "his deputy" had done nothing wrong and said that I should sue him while shaking my complaint against Steinert in his fist.
When brought to the attention of Sheriff Leo, again not a single thing was done.
We all know that there are right ways and wrong ways to do things. Legal ways and illegal ways to do things.
When a Sheriff's Department seizes your property (your home and it's contents), 99.5% of the time it is probably with good cause. When you fall in the percentage outside the 99.5% it is almost impossible to explain how difficult it is to explain to someone so that they can understand what isn't really understandable.

unconscionable: adjective atrocious, blackguard, completely unreasonable, conniving, conscienceless corrupt, criminal, designing, dishonest, dishonorable, excessive, exorbitant, extreme, grievous, grossly unjust, immoderate, impermissible, indefensible, inequitable, inexcusable, inexpiable, inordinate, intemperate, intriguing, knavish, monstrous, outrageous, preposterous, rascally, reprehensible, tricky, unbalanced, undue, unequal, unethical, unfair, unforgivable, unjust, unjustifiable, unprincipled, unreasonable, unscrupulous, wrong
Unusually harsh and shocking to the conscience; that which is so grossly unfair that a court will proscribe it.
When a court uses the word unconscionable to describe conduct, it means that the conduct does not conform to the dictates of conscience. In addition, when something is judged unconscionable, a court will refuse to allow the perpetrator of the conduct to benefit.
Although there are a lot of words that describe how "wrong" it is, unconscionable acts remain beyond the dictates of conscience and people will ask me things like... Were you selling drugs? People immediately try to rationalize legitimate reasons for a Sheriff's Department to take someones home and everything in it. We must have "brought it upon ourselves".
A small donation will go a very long way
for this family as they continue to put
their lives back together!
The family would like to offer you their
sincere appreciation for your considerate
contribution!
