[aquart]

1. Relevant to what?

[NVMojo]

2. looks like the sig is covered up....

[jsamuel]

3. Why?

[Cronus Protagonist]

5. The notary notarized the affidavit

However, the full name does not appear with their stamp. I'd like to know who it was and where the person is located.

6. Why? Relevance? n/t

[jsamuel]

8. This is starting to sound a little threatening...

Its probably some lady downtown. Don't freak her out and put her name all over the internet...

[Cronus Protagonist]

10. That's what being a notary is all about!

You put your good name against a document and stand by it. Nothing threatening about it at all.

[jamboi]

4. Egads! your point? Breaking- Man makes wild claims, risks life for hoax!?!

[Old and In the Way]

7. Looks like the person's name was purposely left off....rightfully so.

This document is going to read by millions of people. Because it's notarized doesn't necessarilly means she's looking to become famous. A lotta nuts out there could make that person's life miserable.

I don't have too big a concern about that. One thing, though, don't these stamps have serial #s?

9. Not required in Maryland

What must the seal contain?

The seal must be either an embosser which makes a raised impression in the paper or a rubber stamp which makes an ink impression upon the paper. Both are in general use throughout the State. Either type must contain the following:

The name of the notary public as it appears on the notary's commission;

The words Notary Public;

The County (or the City of Baltimore) for which the notary was appointed. The seal may also contain a symbol or device chosen by the notary public, but a symbol or device is not required and is not normally used.

The part cut off is probably the notary's name.

11. Is the affiant a resident of Maryland?

I had thought he was in Florida. I must have picked that up wrongly somewhere.

13. The Raw Story/Blue Lemur interview with Curtis says he's in Washington.

http://www.bluelemur.com/index.php?p=479

Can't copy and paste from the site, but it's in the eigth paragraph down. If Curtis is in Washington, signing his affidavit and having it notarized in Prince George's County, MD would not be strange as it's right next to the District of Columbia.

On edit: I'm not sure if you're asking whether the affiant must have an affidavit notarized in the county of their residence, but no, it's not necessary. The notary public cannot notarize documents outside the county(ies) where they are commissioned. But in the affiant's case, if the notary doesn't know the them personally, the affiant only needs to present the required form of identification to the notary, such as a driver's license, etc., to have something notarized.

15. The Raw Story/Red Hands Interview says I'm in my bath tub trying to

electricute myself with my laptop plugged into the wall! Seriously, why do we want to endanger the poor guy further? Unless we want to get him killed? Humm?

[jsamuel]

12. deleted

deleted by poster

[shraby]

14. Who cares? The document has been

delivered to people who need to know and that's what is important. I feel sure they will sort it out.

[catcatcat]

16. deleted

[jamboi]

17. Why are you putting out this information? Do you want notary or Curtis

to be killed?

[catcatcat]

18. no...

...i don't see how knowing the notary's i.d.
will get either of them killed.

[jsamuel]

19. Well we found them. Yay..................hm.............

[jamboi]

20. Why do you want to know it at all? What is your justification? Relevance?

[jamboi]

21. Don't you understand that Curtis' dog was killed (2nd time that happened)

and another investigator was killed? Why would you want to track down info about the notary?

[catcatcat]

23. why would anyone target the notary?

all she is doing is certifying that someone came
before her and claimed that the affidavit was
true -- any notary in that situation would put
their stamp on it...it's their job. certifying
the affidavit is not proving that what is in it
is true.

[jamboi]

25. It certainly serves to compromise Curtis, because you're locating him in

space and time which helps bad guys track him down. Comprende?

[Monkie]

36. oh please..

the bad guys have the full resources of a superpower at their disposal
curtis had/has ALL his info up on the web..phone email adress

its understandable people want to check facts?
when i did a very basic hours checking of www.justaflyonthewall.com
after seeing it posted on www.whatreallyhappened.com last week thursday i had all the info needed to trace him and the other whistleblower involved with the yang/DOT case
names of local reporters that covered it and could lead to him..

or they could just trace bradblog/madsen/rawstory who "broke" this story

i understand your excitement but...

[catcatcat]

22. i wanted to know if there was reason to believe...

...that the document actually *was* notarized --
that the notary actually exists, supports that
belief. look, if i could find the info, anyone
who wanted to could as well -- enough to do so
was posted with the affidavit.

[jamboi]

24. Do you actually think the document wasn't notarized? That's wack! Your

reasons for tracking down and posting this individuals name are very, very weak. Why would you want to find the notary???? Don't you think that the authorities can check anything they need to about the notary very easily if they need to? How does it benefit us to know the notary's name and number? I don't know... your move there just gives me the creeps.

[catcatcat]

26. hmmm...okay, you trust the authorities that much?

i don't -- i like to think for myself as much
as possible.

look, if my post bothers you that much, i'll delete
it (if i can do that) and let people find it for
themselves, if they care to. just let me know if
that will make you happy, and i'll do it...the
censorship is in your hands.

[jamboi]

28. Yes, that would make me feel much better. A little self-disipline is good.

[jamboi]

27. There is still time to self-delete your post and I implore you to do so!

please!

[catcatcat]

29. done (n/t)

[jamboi]

30. Thank you very much! That wins points in my book for sure. n/t

[catcatcat]

34. you're welcome, and thanks...

...sorry to have disturbed you so much in
the first place (though i do still think
you're overreacting a bit about this --
think about it this way, open source
software is usually more secure than
proprietary software for the very reason
that holes are more readily caught and,
thus, identified and corrected; someone
with a malicious bent would invest far
more time than i trying to identify this
person if it were important to them...the
notary would be better off knowing that
this was possible than not knowing...).

take care,
k

31. SIGH

a dodgy situation.. .a questionable document..a murdered dog. . .this smells like. . .KRove . . .no?

[jsamuel]

32. Make that 2 murdered dogs

It smells more like death to me...

Karl doesn't seem to be behind this one... Not that someone else isn't...

[Last Lemming]

35. Don't forget Poland!

[jamboi]

33. Its a "dosgy" situation according to another poster. But what do I know? I

only have communicated w/ Madsen for the past two weeks, vetted his story, found out about Curtis days before anyone else here. One murdered investigator, 2 murdered dogs, a solid document acceptable as primary evidence in a criminal court of law? Dodgy?

[Catherine Vincent]

37. The notary stamp is on there, so it is legit.

And the signature is pretty fancy that you can't read it but as long as it's there, that's all that matters. The notary doesn't have to print their name, only the signee of the affidavit does.
