> ### Joan's Story

> June 21, 1998

> The announcement "Open House" loomed large in the throw-away paper and the thought crossed my mind: "This would be a good opportunity to show the pictures of my EM-embattled arm. My idea was this: If the reaction was: "Get thee to a nut house!" I would have pocketed my artwork, said hello and goodby in rapid succession, forgone the free hotdog, and taken my leave without further ado.

> As it turned out, though, the reception was warm and welcoming, and above all, my pictures were a big hit. Each police officer I spoke with became absorbed in the pictures volonteering his impression of what they might represent. After all, huge blisters and red inflamed arm and other areas are not your everyday spectacle, at least outside a war zone.

> Tables set up for the occasion displayed piles of PR pamphlets for would-be police aspirants or volunteer helpers, and the hosting officers seated at the various tables were most friendly and forthcoming, eagerly awaiting questions from visitors.

> The first officer I approached was heading a long table. :"May I show you some rather unusual pictures," was my opener, and I waited for a affirmative sign before displaying my small portfolio. The reaction was subdued but intense. He gazed deeply at the 1.5 in. inch bright yellow blisters (height of about a half inch) and the 5x6 red inflamed areas displayed on the film.

> "What are these?" he asked. "Ebola virus? That's the only thing I can imagine." No, he said, he had not seen cases of Ebola, except on a television documentary. But he came close. EM and Ebola are both man-made, and both lethal. When I told him they were caused by EM frequencies targetted at my arm and other body parts, he did not seem in the least surprised and made no attempt to refute it. The Red Cross badge he wore seemed to give him an added modicum of authority of one who had seen much that was unspeakable.

> I then proceeded to the the next table, and this is where it happened. Two outgoing and charming officers, fascinated by the arm artwork, readily ventured that the pictures might represent white sulphur bombs or napalm! It was apparent that one of these officers was familiar with those terrible compounds and the wounds they produced.

> Then it happened: "One of our fellow officers has the same thing," said the redhead officer. His companion concurred with: "Let me introduce you. He's right here," getting up to lead me a few steps way to the officer in question.

> Community Relations Officer Digby Sharp stood tall and smiling as we approached. He was the only one wearing shorts, and when he pointed down to his calf, I knew why. A long 9x4 inch inflamation shone red on the outer part of his leg from a few inches below the knee to just above the ankle. It looked as if it must be painful, but knowing from my arm experience that you don't feel it unless something (trousers or the like) chafed or rubbed against it, I did not remark "how painful it must be". But "Oh, my God!" escaped before I could stop it.

> I was full of wonderment, not because I had seen my first confirming EM wounds, but because heretofore, I had believed that if anyone was immune to this sort of overt EM harassment, it would be the police.

> Clearly, I was wrong.

> A badge of honor? or of horror? Officer Sharp smiled as if walking around with an expanse of burned leg was the most natural thing in the world. Was it honor or horror to be attacked by unknowns and even though you represent Law Enforcement, to be powerless to enforce the law that forbids assault and battery? How was it he was powerless to enforce the particularly strict censures against assault on peace officers?

> In any case, he stated that his wounds were electromagnetically related, that they were diagnosed as such by a dermatologist, and quickly volonteered the latter's name.

> After he vanished into the small gathering, I wandered over to the Police Historical Society wagon. There I spoke with a retired gentleman who informed me that back in the '60's the police had an outfit they used to call in response to citizens' electromagnetic harassment complaints. He said that outfit would go to the source of the problem and reduce the power.

> He conceded they could then start up the machine again, though. Alas, he stated the '60's was the last he heard of such a service.

> I returned to the second table where now the Watch Commander, a comely blond lady, Lt. Nancy Lauer and officer Karen Ellis were speaking. When I displayed my pictures to them, the reaction was instantaneous. And when I said I believed a drug dealer living near me was the perpetrator, Lt. Lauer instructed officer Ellis to take down the information.

> After showing my artwork to the bomb squad officer wearing a microwave shielding uniform who was operating a microwave-controlled robot, and who volunteered the name of a San Diego based uniform shop that made microwave-shielding clothing, I showed my pictures to a few more officers and volunteers who were silent yet clearly dismayed.

> How many similar pictures, I wondered, had they seen and how many were chafing under similar EM burns as Officer Sharp and unnamed others?

> How many of them were EM victims?

> Date: June 13, 1998 starting at 10:30 AM

> Place: West Side Division - LAPD, Butler & Santa Monica Blvd., West Los Angeles, California, USA

> RE: Open House for the West Side Division along with a Neighborhood Bazaar

> Background: Joan Siegmund is an electronically harassed individual (a targeted individual). She has exhibited a dermatological condition whose possible cause is electromagnetic/microwave radiation. She presented to the National Bioethics Advisory Commission this past January, 1998 when the Commission had their meeting in Los Angeles.

> The location of the equipment, causing Joan's skin condition, is in the house directly next door to hers. The owner of the house is a known drug dealer. Joan lives on a street which turns into a dead end in the Pacific Palisades. She noticed many cars pulling into the dead end street, knocking on her neighbor's door and leaving quickly. She decided to jot down license plate numbers to make a report to the police. Joan was trying to be a good citizen.

> As a consequence of her actions, her reports were basically ignored and the electronic harassment started. It appears that the electronic harassment was perpetrated by the very drug lord she was trying to report to the police. The police basically refused to respond to her attempts to report drug dealing in her neighborhood. Please draw your own conclusions as to what this means.

> On June 13th, Joan decided to take the latest photos of her skin condition and try to approach the police in what she felt would be a happy, friendly environment. A time and place where she felt her story might be better received. Joan walked around showing her photos to various police officers. After listening to her story, a friendly officer took her to meet someone he claimed looked to have the same type of burns/skin condition as Joan.

> It was at this point that Joan was introduced to Officer Digby Sharpe. Joan noticed that he was wearing shorts, and his skin condition was readily apparent. Officer Sharpe and Joan compared their lesions, and it was evident to both of them that she had the same condition as he did. Officer Sharpe declared that his lesions were caused by EM radiation and he was seeing a doctor in Beverly Hills. He gave the name and address to Joan so that she could go to the doctor and get confirmation as to her condition.

> In addition to her fruitful discussion with Officer Sharpe, Joan talked with Lt. Lauer and Officer Karen Ellis who encouraged her to make a report about the drug problem. Also, surprisingly, Officer Ellis suggested that Joan make an EM damage report at the West Side station.

> I am providing this information to show that local police departments are aware of heavy duty EM radiation. They have never admitted this before. I can only guess the reason why one of their own is suffering from EM radiation. But, the point is, that they know about this condition. The point is that doctors know about this condition.

> Earlier this morning Joan made a suggestion to me. She thought it would be a good idea to present a united front. That is, target individuals as a group go to police stations together and fill out the so-called EM report. Joan was also afraid that I would report the facts of the matter to the public. She was afraid this might "offend somebody" and "get some people in trouble." This is what happens to a targeted individuals; they begin to believe they are alone; that no one will believe them; that the local police are not on their side (and in some cases, that is the correct assumption).

> The bottom line is: that the targeted individuals come to know that they are no longer in isolation, living in fear, without the general public understanding or knowing that direct EM radiation as a form of retaliation is taking place. Now, the targeted individuals are just a small group of people. This small group of people is just the test. If the test is successful . . . . How many more will become targeted by electronic harassment?
