The Dorothea Leslie Milne Trust

Bennett Losses

Good Will Hunting Estates

It took Pete Bennett several years to disseminate the source of severe economic losses. Like other financial fraud victims hailing from Contra Costa County

Probate Fraud

Pete Bennett was lilsted as 1/3 Benificiary to an trust estimated to be valued at over One Million. Bennett lost all his legal documents when relocating from Danville to Walnut Creek during December 2004. His Mormon home teacher fro Alamo 1st Ward scooped up his 4 x 8 trailer filled with 25 years of legal, personal and medical history.

At the time Bennett was duress unaware of police officers setting up divorcees or did he realize the depth of the murders near him or his defendants

The Felonious District Attorney

Deputy District Attorrney Mark Peterson and Pete Bennett connect through a series of muurder or cold cases. Bennett met with Peterson just a month before the November 2010 election hoping a direct meeting with bring some resolution to ongoing incidents such as fraud, arson and attempted murder. A few weeks later he was evicted from his offices on Oak Park Blvd. in Pleasant Hill where after getting a series of credible deaths threats he fled to San Francisco. He was forced to leave behind his equipment, servers and software development projects.

A Will to Collect

The investigation regarding the forgery connected to the Dorothea Leslie Milne Bennett Trust was a classic stonewalling an investigation. It is also Abuse of Authority under Color of Law and Official Right.

In August 1995 my mother passed leaving an estimated estate of One Million.  I waited to collect mine due a tax problem for liens to expire.
The core reason for the liens was being forced from Pittsburg CA when the FBI arrived in regards to events unfolding in Pittsburg which today is part of my current issues with the County and the Contra Costa Bar Association plus cities participating in the Municipal Pooling Authority (MPA) operating under the laws in regards to the Joint Powers Authority (JPA)

A troubling connection is the cities participating in the Municipal Pooling Authority (MPA) operating under the laws in regards to the Joint Powers Authority (JPA) strongly correlate to the dead witnesses.

Dubious Document 

The trust document at issue is about it's validity, the authoring of the will, the original distribution intentions and legitimacy of release of funds.  I cannot challenge anything at this point as the person connected US Grand Jury Cases permeate endless roadblocks thrown up by Police Officers, The Courts themselves and the attacks on my counsel.

Crush or Kill Litigants

The following is a sample of the medical journey connected to events such as poison, arson, bacteria and numerous severe beatings. Bennett considers his maladies nothing compared to loss of the lives of others.

Jury awards family of brain-damaged Contra Costa boy $12.1 million

Jury awards family of brain-damaged Contra Costa boy $12.1 million

By Gary Peterson
Contra Costa Times

POSTED:   09/19/2014 05:58:58 PM PDT0 COMMENTS| UPDATED:   ABOUT 3 HOURS AGO

MARTINEZ -- A Contra Costa jury on Thursday awarded $12.1 million to an East County family who alleged in a lawsuit against Contra Costa County Health Services that their son was born with brain damage as a result of medical malpractice.

After a two-month trial, the family of Brian Cuevas was awarded more than $55,000 in past medical care, $9.577 million for future medical care, $2 million for loss of future earnings and $500,000 for past pain and suffering resulting from negligence by the county in caring for the boy's mother during her high-risk pregnancy in 2008.

"It's a very large number," said Michael Gatto, attorney for the plaintiffs. "Awards are always a function of two things: What does a person need, and what is his life expectancy."

Gatto said the boy, now 6, was born with brain damage that adversely affects his speech and also with diminished motor skills. The jury estimated the boy has a life expectancy of 74 years.

"The defense admitted at trial that he would never be able to live independently and never would be employed," Gatto said.

"We are always saddened by unfortunate medical outcomes, but privacy concerns prevent the Health Services Department from discussing the specific details of this case," said Anna Roth, CEO of Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and Health Centers, in a statement. "We can say that since that time we have made, and continue to make, significant advances in the care we provide to pregnant women."

According to Gatto, Brian Cuevas' mother was assigned a family practitioner unqualified to treat her "1-in-30,000" pregnancy. The mother, the attorney said, was carrying twins in one placenta.

The family practitioner, Gatto said, allowed the pregnancy to continue too long and failed to respond appropriately when an emergency occurred during what was supposed to be a routine prenatal exam at the Pittsburg Health Center on June 27, 2008. Delays in getting the woman to the hospital for an emergency C-section exacerbated the situation, Gatto said, depriving the fetuses of blood and oxygen.

One of the twins died. Later, the attorney said, it was discovered that the family practitioner had altered medical records after the fact and provided false testimony.

The money will be placed in a special trust for the boy, his guardian, Liza Servin, said.

"He may never be normal," Servin said, "but I do believe he will have a much better quality of life with the resources the jury has provided."

Gatto said the pain and suffering award will likely be reduced to $250,000 to conform to California's cap on general damages.

Dennis Sandoval -56-year-old man killed after car plunges into canal

The Man in the Canal

Sheets

Special title treatment

Pittsburg CA:

Man speaks out against BART in November 2013 and is dead by April 2nd, 2014. I know that it's another Cold Case County accident where residents like Bennett who speak out are nearly killed in Walnut Creek crosswalks, that his friends like Kellie Reed or his attorneys brother in-law are killed and damn even when Bennett's truck exploded on the Freeway nothing -

I have witnesses and they are Mormon's that are friends with Supervisor Anderson who knows James Greenan where they happily drink that Mormon Swill known as Kool-Aid and Jello -

More to come

Just kinda of weird

When speaking up on BART issues you should be careful as someone might pull a Sandoval on you.

Dennis Sandoval , 56, of Pittsburg has been riding BART for four decades, and he is fed up by the two strikes and ongoing labor dispute, in which the transit agency board is refusing to ratify the tentative contract because of a family medical leave section it says was accidentally included.

"The state should take over the entire operation," he said, questioning whether either BART management or its unions are taking commuters into consideration.

"The voice of the commuters, the hundreds of thousands of people who ride BART every day, is not being heard at the negotiation table," he said. "What about us?"
Trost said the transit agency's priority is its riders and that it tries to keep them informed of potential or actual shutdowns, whether caused by strike, computer failures or someone or something on the tracks.
