Geiger Counter: FBI and Police Response
What happened when I tried to report unusually high radioactivity readings to police, FBI?
1. FBI says it's a police matter
On September 21, 2021 I called the FBI to report one of these incidents of elevated Geiger counter readings. The FBI intake agent told me that this was a police matter. I followed her instructions and attempted to report the elevated radioactivity to police.
2. Police don't respond
At first it appeared that police would take a report from me. I was given a report number and I was permitted to speak with an officer named Jason Francis. Officer Francis gave me an email address, and asked me to send my evidence there. So I did. It was my hope that the police might, for example, provide a second Geiger counter to confirm that mine was working properly, and/or include a functional dosimeter in order to get a more accurate reading of radiation and understanding of any potential danger. Instead, Officer Francis never returned any emails, and never answered or returned any subsequent phone calls.
3. Evidence goes missing.
In 2023, as part of a lawsuit filed against the City of Portland, a document request returned what I believe to be my complete police record. However, there is no record of my conversation with Officer Francis reporting the abnormally high Geiger counter readings, or of the emails sent to Officer Francis with photographic and video attachments sent as evidence in support of my reports. Similarly, there is no record of me attempting to report Chris' death to them as a murder.
In general, like my medical records, my police and FBI records seem to be deliberately slanted to paint me as an unreliable reporter, constructed with the specific intent of minimizing and covering up the serious crimes which have devastated my life and my family.Over the past 12 years, this has been a common pattern: deflection, non-response, evidence spoliation. Meanwhile the crime continues, suffering continues, and people continue dying.
