Text Body Heading

The document above has many similarities to the Bernie Madoff scandel, the failures of the SEC, and the whistleblower, Harry Markopolos who was ignored by different government agencies that should have investigated Bernie Madoff years ago.

The difference is that this story is about an AT&T scandel, the failures of the CPUC, and a nobody named Mike Knell, whose family business has lost millions of dollars in lost productivity because of chronic phone problems caused by deregulation in the Telecommunications industry.

On June 4, 2010, I called the CEO of AT&T, who is in Texas. I was transferred to Gary Coppers, Manager of the Office of the President in the AT&T San Francisco Office. He told me he knew who I was, and that he was aware of this webpage. He told me the document dated March 16, 2009 is a proprietary AT&T document, and that it was illegal for me to have it. I told him I obtained the document legally, and the document proves that AT&T committed perjury to conceal it was using defective phone lines to my business. He then asked how much I wanted to settle.

Defective cable pairs for my business phone lines from 1996 through July 2007

From 1992 through September 4, 2001, cable pair 1118 (which provided service to my residential phone number 462-5093), was found to have been defective on eight separate occasions, and never repaired. This proved that Pacific Bell had committed a series of frauds to conceal problems on my residential phone line, and committed perjury, by denying that cable pair 1118 provided service to my phone number 462-5093.

The same pattern of problems (fraud and perjury) occurred on my two business phone lines since 1996. It must be noted that in 1996, and 1997, Pacific Bell offered me $2000 as a result of the recurring problems on my business lines. In the Formal Complaint, Pacific Bell committed perjury to deny that the trouble code "98" was an indication of trouble on my phone lines. Furthermore, repair records had been altered to conceal problems dating back to 1996.

As a result of committing perjury to get the complaint dismissed, the problems on my business phone lines have continued through July 2007. From May 2006 through July, 2007, my business fax line has been found to be defective three times, although in July 2007, an AT&T manager lied to me, to claim that technicians did not find problems on my phone lines. It is only through photography, that I can prove there have been recurring cable failures.

From 2003 through present day, on over 100 occassions, I have asked Government Employees, and politicians (including Governor Schwarzennegger and Congresswoman Ellen Tausher) to look at the above document, make a determination that the phone number has the last five digits of "25093," and to get the FBI to file criminal charges against the phone company Attorney, Stephanie Elena Krapf, who told the CPUC that the phone number noted above has the last five digits of "85093."

FBI agents have repeatedly told me to give up. I have told the FBI agents, over a dozen times, "I am not giving up."

I will always try just one more time, until Stephanie Elena Krapf is sent to prison for perjury and conspiracy to commit fraud, and that also goes for the Corrupt Judge, Janice Lynn Grau, and a few others.

New page body text will be here.• A Comcastic Phone Number (with a $10,000 reward)—a billion dollar problem for the "New AT&T" and the only thing standing between me, and recovering business losses as a result of AT&T using defective phone lines.

• Cable Pair Identification 1118: Phone Number 925-462-5093

Any reasonable person can "see" that the above noted phone number has the last five digits of "25093." It is my phone number (925-462-5093), and it is the smoking gun that proves the phone company committed a series of frauds, to conceal violations to public utility laws, each and every day, since 1996. The frauds range from claims that my phone lines tested ok (when they were known to be defective), to claims that I threatened to kill phone company employees.

To avoid paying millions of dollars in fines to the State of California, the phone company Attorney told the State of California that the phone number has the last five digits of "85093."

From what I understand, the phone company attorneys are still laughing about the fictional phone number, and how they ripped me off, and, at the same time, avoided paying millions of dollars in fines to the State of California.

By doing little more than acknowledging that the phone number has the last five digits of "25093," and following the Rule of Law, the State of California could add over $200,000,000 ($200 million) to the State General Fund.

Sadly, nobody at the California Public Utilities Commission will acknowledge the existence of the above photograph. Any attempt to get the CPUC to acknowledge that the phone number shown above has the last five digits of "25093," results in one of two responses: The first response is to ignore me. The second response is for the CPUC to accuse me of harrassment. (click to read 10/10/07 attempt to communicate with the CPUC)

The State's failure to acknowledge the above phone number is mine, is linked to Governor Schwarzenegger, through his current Chief of Staff, Susan Kennedy. Ms. Kennedy was one of the five Commissioners who failed to acknowledge that the above phone number has the last five digits of "25093." I don't believe Ms. Kenney is corrupt, I believe Commission employees concealed the facts of the Complaint from Ms. Kennedy (and the other Commissioners).

The Formal Complaint through the California Public Utilities Commission was a failure that exposed problems with the current laws, and the illegal mechanisms that allow phone companies to successfully violate laws.

By using common sense to establish a simple telecommunications consumer's bill of rights, the State could save consumers, the State, and even the phone companies, billions of dollars each year, while making jobs easier for honest phone company employees, and honest government workers.

After looking at the facts, I have determined that the Judge is corrupt, and that many of the violations (the use of defective phone lines and altered repair records) are linked to securities frauds.

The government agency with Jurisdiction in Corruption and Securities Frauds is the FBI.

The FBI webpage on corruption makes it very clear that corruption is one of the FBI's top priorities.

Likewise, the FBI webpage on Corporate Frauds makes it very clear that the FBI will investigate Corporate Frauds, including Securities Frauds.

If the FBI can successfully prove a phone number on the above photograph is my phone number, it will prove the need for a telecommunications consumer's bill of rights.

I first contacted the FBI, via email (click to read it), in July, 2007, after speaking to phone repair expert, Don McCarty, about the trouble code "98" (http://mikeandmabell.com/FBI/History-WetCable.html).

The FBI responded, via email (click to read it), that I should contact the local office. In July, 2007, I spoke to an FBI agent by phone, and he told me his computer would not allow him to look at the high resolution photograph (http://mikeandmabell.com/362_hi-res.html).

The FBI agent suggested I go to the FBI office in San Francisco. Shortly after speaking to the FBI, I obtained documents from an AT&T Supervisor Escort who had tried to conceal problems that were on my phone lines, establishing a pattern of behavior that has gone on since 1997. I spent the next several months putting this webpage together to make it easier for the FBI to look at documents, and understand why a Supervisor Escort would be hiding recurring problems (http://mikeandmabell.com/FBI/History-supervisor-escorts.html), and how the phone company could use "protected services" to conceal problems (http://mikeandmabell.com/FBI/History-Protected-Service.html).

On October 15, 2007, I went to the FBI (in San Francisco). I filed a Complaint, and spoke to a Duty Agent about my phone problems. I told the Duty Agent why I believe the Judge who presided over my Formal Complaint, is corrupt, and how I believe she concealed the facts of the Complaint from the Commissioners (http://mikeandmabell.com/FBI/History-Conclusion.html). I provided the Duty Agent with a print-out of this page (before recent editing), and asked that the FBI investigate the following items listed below.

After waiting over five weeks, and getting no response from the FBI, I contacted Congresswoman, Ellen Tauscher, by telephone on November 28, 2007. Her staff member looked at the above photograph, and quickly agreed that the phone number on the above document had the last five digits of "25093" and agreed to open a Congress

I'm sure that if Arnold Schwarzenegger were to look at the above photograph, and realize it could add hundreds of millions to the State General Fund, he would acknowledge it was my phone number. Unfortuneatly, the Governor's Office is just as difficult to communicate with as the CPUC. I called the San Francisco Office (415-703-2218), and spoke to a gentleman named Hong Chang. He was able to log on to this webpage, but he would not comment on the numbers in the photograph. He told me he would get back to me. After a few days, Hong called me back, and suggested I fax the Governor's office. When I asked if Hong could determine if the phone number was mine, Hong told me it was "complicated." I told him it wasn't complicated, and he hung up on me. I did fax the Governor's Office, but my faxes have been ignored. I also called the Governor's Office in Sacramento (916-445-2841). I spoke to "Ari," who told me he couldn't look at this webpage or the photograph. He suggested I mail a letter to the Governor's Office. I mailed a letter to the Governor's Office on Feb 20, 2008. I called the Governors office on April 29, and the man who answered the phone acknowledge that they received my letter. He agreed the phone number has the last five digits of "25093". He took my complaint, and told me he would forward the complaint to the Governor..

The Formal Complaint through the California Public Utilities Commission was a failure. The Governor's Office is also a failure. The good news is that it exposed problems with the current laws, and the illegal mechanisms that allow phone companies to successfully violate laws.

Michelle Galbraith was the attorney who responded to my Discovery requests after Sasser resigned from the Complaint. She obstructed justice by providing incorrect definitions for the trouble code 98, and she altered an internal document to conceal the trouble code 98. According to her website, she is now a Realestate broker.

I am ooking for somebody who can get our Government to do its job, and save this country a few billion dollars a year, while making jobs easier, and more productive for phone company employees, Government employees, and businesses that require reliable phone service.

An additional $10,000 will be paid if this results in the Government determining that phone company Attorney, Michelle Galbraith, had altered documents to conceal the trouble code "98 and/or lied about the definition of the trouble code 98 in documents she provided to me." Trouble Code 98: Two act of Perjury, two acts of Obstruction of Justice, and Eleven Years of Defective phone lines

An additional $10,0000 will be paid if this results in the Government determining that Janice Grau, the CPUC Judge who presided over the Complaint had fabricated the claim the DAML was admittedly defective to avoid the issue of the defective phone lines linked to the above phone number. The Corrupt Judge and the "admittedly defective DAML"

An additional $10,000 will be paid if this results in the Government determining that AT&T documents dated March 16, 2009 prove the Testimony of Bob Alex, which claimed there were 35 good cable pairs in May 2003, was a fabrication, to conceal problems in the infrastructure. Direct Testimony of Bob Alex on Behalf of Pacific Bell Telephone Company

An additional $10,000 will be paid if this results in the Government determining that Darlene Mae Clark, AT&T (Resale) Senior Attorney committed perjury when she Answered the Complaint, stating that there was only one listing problem, and that it was "long since resolved," when Pacific Bell documents proved there were 24 listing problems, and AT&T Resale admitted it was aware of the recurring listings problems when AT&T Answered the Complaint.

An additional $10,000 will be paid if this results in a Telecommunications Consumer's Bill of Rights

In 2003, AT&T Attorney, Stephanie Elena Krapf, defrauded the California State General Fund out of as much as $100 million, by claiming the above circled phone number has the last five digits of "85093." The actual numbers are "25093" .

As an Officer of the Court, the Attorney's words cannot be disputed by an ordinary citizen, such as myself, in the courtroom.

Luckily, we have a system that can deal with Attorney's who commit fraud. In this particular situation, the FBI has jurisdiction. Unfortuneatly, the FBI's message to me is, "Let it go." Those are the exact words of an FBI agent, who, at one point in 2008, told me she would try to open an investigation.

In March 2009, I obtained internal phone company documents that can be used by the FBI to prove that AT&T committed perjury. I had repeatedly contacted the FBI, asking them to look at these documents.

An FBI agent returned a call to me on 02/19/10. During our conversation, he realised that I had been to the FBI office on three separate occasions. He decided to tell me how the real world works. He lectured me on how difficult it is to prove to a jury, that an attorney committed perjury, and he refused to look at the documents on this website. It became clear that the FBI agent has become so cynical, that he could not possibly believe that the documents I obtained in March 2009 could be used to prove that AT&T committed perjury to conceal violations to public utility laws.

The level of cynisism at the FBI has become so great, that the FBI has seemingly, given up on prosecuting attorney's who commit perjury. And of course, the attorney who claimed the phone number at the top of this page has the last five digits of "85093," knows this. The system has failed.

Recently, you spoke to the American people, and told us, that when the system fails, it is your responsibility.

With this webpage, I want you to understand why the system failed, and, more importantly, what can be done to prevent the frauds that are linked to the above circled phone number.

I hope your administration will look at documents shown below that can save this country, billions of dollars each year, while making jobs easier, and more productive.
