To whom it may concern,
I was the victim of a felony assault on May 19th 2015 (BPD Case no.
REDACTED). The entire incident is filmed, with audio.
Officer C. Wyche, guided directly by Senior Officer Peacey, has filed a
false report, as well as suppressed evidence, in an attempt to maliciously
prosecute me, and in doing so has denied me due process and equal protection
under the law.
I believe if I had been Female and not Male, Officer Peacey would not have
been so condescending, agitated, emotional, and unprofessional, nor would
she have led the other three officers present to commit what constitutes
serious misconduct.
The video of the assault can be viewed here.REDACTED
I have sent the video previously via e-mail to the Bellevue Police
department, and it was given to Officer White on thumbdrive, and it is
described in the report - yet the narrative that Officer Wyche has presented
does not match the video. I believe the video file was omitted from evidence
because of Officer Peacey's incorrect determination that it was in violation
of the State of Washington's 2-party consent law - a determination which
allowed a malicious prosecution based on verbal statements by the assailant.
All filming took place in full public view, in public. There is no
application of that law here and Officer Peacey was informed of this.
When I informed her after looking up the statute, I believe Officer Peacey
became determined to harm me with malicious prosecution in retaliation for
being corrected in front of other officers. She had already made up her mind
without fully investigating because of her prejudice against Males, and my
challenging her solidified her intent to retaliate. Officer Peacey was
obviously guiding Officer Wyche on every aspect during the investigation, but
Officer Wyche still lied.
Officer Peacey also escalated the situation by bringing the secondary
aggressor down to apologize. I believe Jaspreet was caught up in his lying
to the point where he thought he would seem guilty if he didn't apologize.
Jaspreet knows he is guilty of disorderly conduct and obstruction, for
instigating the pursuit while claiming peaceful intentions to the police - a
complete fabrication verified on the video.
Only my brother attempted to mediate and protect me from their continued,
aggressive, unnecessary advances.
Officer Peacey took much, MUCH longer to berate me and humiliate me than it
would have taken to investigate my claims. Long enough that I went inside
and finished my written statement which I handed to Officer Wyche... who
then ignored it, as well. Apparently it is now missing.
Officer Peacey also made sexist comments in front of my brother and mother
while I was not present, which support my belief that she broke the law with
full intent and knowledge that she was doing so.
I tried to bring this to the attention of the department, and was told by a
Supervisor McElyea via a message to my brother that I wasn't going to like
what he had to say. I find this interesting, given that my witness statement
is missing, my brother never got to give one, and the video evidence is
suppressed.
No, Supervisor McElyea, I do not like it when police officers lie. Do not
have this Officer contact me again to try and intimidate me into not filing
a complaint. His conduct is also part of the pattern of misconduct here.
From the assailants all the way up to the city prosecutor Jeff Tory, no one
has done anything other than lie and seek to pass responsibility onto
someone else.
This clear pattern of misconduct needs to be investigated by the FBI, and I
will be forwarding this e-mail to their Seattle Division, as well
as Washington State AGO's office, the Mayor of Bellevue,and the Seattle Times
Newspaper.
If you need a witness statement about the event, ask Officer Wyche where my
sworn statement, handwritten, went. He took the assailants at their word.
Below find my original e-mail to the Bellevue Police Department dated May
21st 2015, acknowledged received by Officer Seth Tyler.
I will celebrate this 4th of July weekend in remembrance of those who gave
the ultimate sacrifice so that our society doesn't have to face the rule of
corrupt actions enabled by the government.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
CD

JULY 13th I receive another vague message, as if I requested a status on my own case and not the Misconduct complaint.
"Mr. D,
Officer Wyche is listed as the investigating officer for this incident.The video and your statement were booked as evidence. They are both part of the case file. I have reviewed both of them along with the case file.I also placed a copy of your statement in the file so it is in the case file as well as the evidence locker. The video can only be retained in the evidence locker, however, it can be retrieved for viewing. As you know the case was sent to the COB Prosecutor’s Office for review. After their review is finished they will contact the appropriate parties.
Captain JC Hershey
Bellevue Police"

JULY 13th I respond:
"Captain Hershey,
You are the first person to inform me that the case was actually sent to the COB prosecutors office.
I was told May 19th by Officer Peacey that the case would be referred to "the prosecutor's" office without charging documents.
When I called Jeff Tory, City Attorney, on June 9th 2015 he had not heard of the case and had put a request in for more information.No one has contacted me before or since from their office or yours about more information regarding this case.
The case was reviewed, with my written statement and video present for review, but was the obviously incorrect recommendation made to the prosecutor revised in any way?
When was the case initially sent to the COB prosecutor's office? Was it after June 9th?
When may I expect to be contacted regarding the status of my formal complaint or with whom do I inquire regarding the status of my formal complaint to the Office of Professional Standards regarding the serious misconduct of Officer's Peacey and Wyche?
Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
CD"

JULY 13th CPT Hershey Replies:
"Mr. D,
you have seen the report and know that the case was sent to the PA’s Office with a request to charge you with disorderly and harassment.When I viewed the video and read your statement, I see why the officers made that request.
When you saw the traffic violation and heard the loud music you should have called the police and not ran out to confront your neighbor. Let us talk with your neighbor.In my mind, it appears that you were the primary aggressor, so I clearly understand why the officers did what they did.
Today, I spoke with Assistant Prosecutor Torrey. I do not have all the dates, but when the case was sent back to the officer for more info the Prosecutor’s wanted the officer to contact the other party to see if they wanted to pursue charges.
I believe they said no, so nothing is going to happen as a result of this incident. I need to wait for the final review from the PA’s Office to confirm that.You and your neighbor need to work this out by talking with each other with an officer or via the City’s Mediation Program.
Please call me, so we can talk.

RE: Felony assault by strangulation BPD case no. REDACTED
Captain Hershey,
No. You are 100% incorrect and even you even begin with the same narrative about me "running" up the street Officer Peacey wants to put forth through Officer Wyche. The false reporting only continues from there.
Why did Officer Peacey threaten to arrest me for breaking the 2-party consent law (her reason for not reviewing the video and encouraging other officers at the scene not to view it)? You are saying the video is evidence.
Clearly then, Officer Peacey made a serious error - one that has allowed this attempted malicious prosecution.
Why is the video described incorrectly when any person can see the report does not match the video?
If I was clearly in the wrong, why does the assailant not want to pursue the case? I can tell you why -- because they are caught in a lie and trying to find a way out, since May 19th.
Your office is facilitating this by not even doing the most basic due diligence in investigating.
The suspects are limiting their liability, might I add far better than your department is doing.
My right to due process is being violated, and this unequal protection under the law is not going to be accepted.
Your Officers accused me of a crime that could ruin my education, as I am pursuing a certification program that requires background checks.
You can blame me all you want, but I didn't break the law here, and I will be exonerated completely.Your department has treated me like a criminal from the first moment of interaction.
I hope you realize the extent of the damage your department's dishonesty is doing, and that by continuing to support a false narrative you are now actively participating in the pattern of misconduct.
Please add this e-mail chain to my formal complaint of serious misconduct Detective Jensen sent to the Office of Professional Standards earlier this month, and respond that you have done so.
Thank you for your time.

Captain Hershey
To whom it may concern,
I have had a complaint of serious police misconduct pending review by an "Office of Professional Standards" since July 3rd when it was forwarded by Detective A. Jensen.
I have not been contacted further regarding the complaint.
I have been contacted by a Captain Hershey who says he is reviewing my "case", yet he refuses to provide me contact information for a liason with this Office of Professional Standards.
In fact, he ignores my question completely in several e-mails.
He does not state whether he is with this office.
Please answer the following questions:
1. Who currently comprises the Bellevue Police Department Office of Professional Standards?
2. Where is this information located?
3. According to the policy I found on line, the office is consists of Captain, a Lieutenant, and the PIO. All within the same department, with no citizen oversight or outside legal opinions. The City Manager is supposedly their liason. Is this correct?
4. Please confirm, is Captain Hershey currently part of the BPD Office of Professional Standards?
5. Who handles complaints, when the complaint involves a member of the Office of Professional Standards?
I also am requesting, for a third time, the name of a liason to communicate regarding my formal complaint of serious misconduct, forwarded to the Office of Professional Standards on July 3rd 2015.
Please send me all relevant contact information and, if possible, a status on my complaint or reason why the status cannot be determined.
I cannot be reached by phone.

JULY 16th Bellevue Police Chief Stephen Mylett replies
"Mr. D,
I have been in contact with Captain Hershey and he has informed me he has communicated information to you when requested. Your complaint was received by the Office of Professional Standards and, as per policy, assigned accordingly. Once the investigation is completed you will receive correspondence informing you of the findings. I am monitoring the progress of the investigation and I do not anticipate it will take much longer to determine if any violations of department policy occurred during the incident in question.
The Office of Professional Standards is staffed with a Police Captain and a Police Lieutenant who report directly to the Chief of Police. There is no civilian oversight except that matters related to employee misconduct may include the involvement of the City's legal team.
Your point of contact for this complaint is Captain Hershey. I believe you already possess his contact information. While Captain Hershey is not assigned to the OPS, as per department policy and practice, he will investigate these types of complaints with guidance and oversight from the IA Captain.
If a complaint is received accusing the OPS Captain of misconduct then the complaint will be investigated by the Office of Chief of Police.
I hope I have been able to answer your questions. Should you have further questions please contact Captain Hershey.

Mayor Balducci,
I appreciate your response! The unfortunate thing is, the Bellevue Police investigate themselves.
Captain Hershey, despite claiming to have review evidence, is going to be very embarrassed when he realizes how wrong he is. To say the least, I am very disappointed in this process.
Captain Hershey refuses to respond, or only responds partially. In fact, he claims he knows I am the guilty party despite all evidence to the contrary.[EDITORS NOTE] This sounds awfully similar to OFC FOGG's astonishment at the lack of basic investigation techniques by a senior officer. Now we see the similarity in the cases; Jim Hershey was asked to investigate a case that involved fellow officers with seniority. He rewards this with a blind eye to their misconduct. This was alleged before and the culture explained in detail by OFC FOGG REDMOND PD during FS-13-003
This is as crazy as it sounds. I feel like I'm in the twilight zone.
I have been very articulate in my concerns, and every keeps saying I should move along. I have no recourse but to continue contacting anyone who may listen.
This complaint process needs civilian oversight.At your request I will no longer contact you directly about this matter.Thank you for your time,
Sincerely,

JULY 20th LT INGRAM replies... and completely disregards my formal complaint
"Mr. D, Please see my responses to your questions below. If you need further clarification on anything, please let me know. Thank you.
LT. Ingram
1. Who currently comprises the Bellevue Police Department Office of Professional Standards?
There are three positions in the Office of Professional Standards; Captain Hoffman, Lt. Ingram and the Public Information Officer, Officer Tyler.
2. Where is this information located?
This information is located on the City of Bellevue’s website under Police. On this website is a link to the Bellevue Police Policy Manual.
The Office of Professional Standards is under the police of “16.00.020 Office of the Chief.” The Office of Professional Standards is also on the organizational chart.http://www.bellevuewa.gov/police.htm
http://bellevuewa.gov/Other/Police/PolicyManual/16.00.020.html
http://www.bellevuewa.gov/pdf/Police/Police_2014_Org_Chart_01_01_14.pdf
3. According to the policy I found on line, the office is consists of Captain, a Lieutenant, and the PIO. All within the same department, with no citizen oversight or outside legal opinions. The City Manager is supposedly their liaison. Is this correct?
The Bellevue Police Department has an internal Legal Advisor, Melissa Chin, who is a civilian. The City also has attorneys that provide legal support and advice to the police department. There is no citizen oversight or outside legal opinions.http://www.bellevuewa.gov/city-attorney.htm
I don’t understand your question regarding the City Manager as liaison. The Chief of Police is appointed by and reports directly to the City Manager. However, the Chief of Police has overall authority and management responsibility of the Police Department.
4. Please confirm, is Captain Hershey currently part of the BPD Office of Professional Standards?
Captain Hershey is assigned to Patrol and is not part of the Office of Professional Standards.
5. Who handles complaints, when the complaint involves a member of the Office of Professional Standards?
If there was a complaint on Officer Tyler or Lt. Ingram, Captain Hoffman would handle the complaint.
If the complaint was regarding Captain Hoffman then either a Major or the Deputy Chief would handle the complaint. If the complaint was about an investigation that Lt. Ingram and Captain Hoffman conducted, the Major or the Deputy Chief would handle the complaint."

LT. Ingram,
Thank you very much for your complete and thorough reply.
I need clarification on only one issue:
1.) Why did Captain Hershey say he reviewed the case and video, and agrees with the Officers?
Nearly the entirety of Officer Wyche's "description" of the video is false. These are no insignificant details, like color of my eyes -- Officer Wyche intentionally supports the narrative of the assailant, an assailant with no memory of the attack per the assailants own statement! How is this possible?
Officer Wyche goes on to completely fabricate what is clearly shown on the video.This is beyond a mistake. This is willful, intentional misconduct at the behest, I believe, of Officer Peacey.
I know what happened, my brother knows what happened, the two suspects know what happened, and the video and audio prove what happened. No one has ever asked my brother for a clarifying witness statement, or asked if he would like to press charges. Only the assailants are being considered, and only they are smart enough to realize when we go to court the entire case will unravel. From Officer Peacey, Wyche, White, Lt. McElyea and Captain Hershey, NO ONE HAS WATCHED THE VIDEO.
Captain Hershey acts incredulous that I could even question where the video is.
Clearly in the report, Officer Wyche enters and notes the entry into evidence of the injury photos. Wyche mentions in one sentence that the video was given to officer white. No entry note or reference to the video in evidence. This, and the fact the video proves me innocent, leads me to question whether anyone has actually viewed the video at all! Please, LT Ingram, will you just review the video while reading the report?
I am not making anything up, all my claims are verified by 4 minutes of investigation. This "case" is now over two months old and I have lived through hell every day of it. You understand that this is ruining my life?
I would appreciate 4 minutes to exonerate myself and prove my claims.
Is there a technical problem with the video? If so, here is a link to the original with audio:
The allegedly unredacted report is here: REDACTED The video is here:REDACTED There is a link in the video description to the page of the report, where I underline in RED what I initially see as NOT CORRECT, ie FALSE.You may view that image of the report here:REDACTED
Any further correspondence that does not refer directly to the status of the investigation the serious misconduct of Officers Wyche, Peacey, Lt. McElyea, and Captain Hershey, or the status of my request to accept a citizen's arrest for felony assault, will be considered an attempt to further ignore this issue.
Please do not attempt to delay this case, or intimidate or bully me into not pursuing my complaint like Captain Hershey and Lt. McElyea. 4 minutes of your time is all it takes.I really don't understand this extreme delay in service when all my claims are IMMEDIATELY verifiable! What is the angle here? What exactly are you missing from me?? To clarify: I want these Officers investigated. I want the assailant charged with the crime he committed.
Faithfully,

JULY 20th NO reply that day so I send an ANGRY reply
Hello,
I have given your offices enough time to realize your mistakes. There is no more time.
The allegedly unredacted report is here:REDACTED The video is here:REDACTED
1.) The audio of the video is part of what proves me innocent. I believe this audio has been removed or not audible on the evidence copy. The audio when combined with the video proves every part of the signed statements from the assailants to be fabrications.
2.) This is not a juvenile suspect, 17 years old, as Jaspreet claimed. B. Bhamber is 19 years old, born 1-15-1996. The juvenile division of the King County prosecutors office no longer need be concerned with this case. I apologize for believing Jaspreet Bhamber ... the fact is, early in the pages of the report, this person DOB was omitted indicting to me he was indeed a minor. On his sworn statement he writes his own date of birth!
3.) Officer Peacey incorrectly describes the encounter in her narrative.
4.) Officer White says he did not edit or change the video in evidence, proving your office has the full video with audio.
I had refused to read the witness statements from the two brothers, knowing they would be lies. Now, today, I read them and find out they are claiming I am a racist, knocked this guys turban off, came up shouting the "F" word (which, by the way, these guys do ALL THE TIME), and started a fight for no reason...
I am beyond outraged.
The suspect continued his behavior even after I made a harassment report on Friday May 22nd. B. Bhamber clearly is a liar and intended all along to get away with his crime. I bet he can't believe you bought it! Both Bhamber brothers claim I should be prosecuted, and now they don't' want to press charges against someone they claim is a drunken, racist attacking their indian culture....? Maybe its because I don't like any music played at apocalyptic levels with bass shaking my brain while I try to study for school! I have this on video WITH AUDIO as well. These slanderous lies are now libel and part of the public record, while my hand written statement is NOT included in the report!
I've never said anything other than the truth, verified at any time, and your office has treated me like a criminal.
I am in extreme emotional distress over this, I cannot sleep, and now I wonder if I can even continue my phlebotomy training because my hands are shaking so hard. I am contacting an attorney and I will be seeking advice on how to proceed in a civil case against the City of Bellevue police department for their misconduct and conspiracy to deny me due process.
The city may expect a claim for damages to be imminent. You will arrest this suspect, now. You will charge him with felony assault, and the assault on my brother, now. There will be no more lies, no more delays, no more administrative obstruction. Do your job. NOW.
B. Bhamber is to be charged with the following:
2nd degree assault
4th degree assault, 3 counts, for hitting my camera hand twice and pushing my brother
Obstruction of justice
Disorderly Conduct
Jaspreet Bhamber, the following:
Disorderly conduct
obstruction of justice
I am furious you tried to prosecute me for disorderly and harassment because you find me rude. I find people breaking the law rude, does that mean I can strangle them? This whole process is a farce.Officially, without patience, yet still with respect despite your departments continued egregious violations,

and we know the response to that... I increased my medication again as Deputy Chief Jolliffe was preparing to enter the picture. His letter, dated July 21st, arrived that Friday July 24th.
