A good outcome is anticipated for Phillips' challenges and for everyone who has been impacted.  A part of that process is to correct misinformation that for more than a decade has used Phillips' newsworthiness as a public figure to knowingly, maliciously, and persistently misinform audiences about him and exploit alleged victims by embellishing facts, most notoriously the "college girlfriend hand-bashing". This report, along with other false and inappropriate characterizations are addressed in this website click here for more .

While it is understandable that the public response to reports of contemptible acts is outrage, it is always inappropriate to create or join a public outcry before critically thinking and searching beyond the reported mayhem, perversity, exaggeration and propaganda to uncover the facts.  In Lawrence Phillips' state of affairs, as in those of countless others, falsehoods and half-truths promoted in the public arena have undermined the capacity of just and fair actions by those who desire to honestly and fairly interpret, uphold and execute the law.

It is the mission of this website to: 

• present documented facts and truths that help those willing to pursue and apply justice only when appropriate, fair and lawful, to be well-informed of truths regarding Phillips

• re-establish and broaden Lawrence Phillips' circle of influence

• most importantly, affirm what has already been established by the only unequivocal power that is always both witness and judge: that Lawrence Phillips has a good future, ordained by the Creator and evidenced by the things that God, the Creator, has already begun to reveal!

Sentencing Over, Fight Continues

The sentencing's over. The 10-year sentence (or one-half of the 20 years demanded), was to some degree impacted by an ongoing Supreme Court decision that, to date, favors Phillips' position on a prior conviction.

During sentencing, a juror claiming jury misconduct gave a sworn affidavit that was disregarded by the judge.

How can a trial referee take no notice of constitutional rules, as if they don't exist?  Conflicts involving corporations are decided by interpreting contracts (often in ways that differ from the original intent). Should courtroom referees (judges), like corporations, interpret the rules as they wish and as they go along, ignoring the expressed intent of law and forcing incarceration while the accused waits for the fairness of higher courts? In corporate environments, the law is fluid and increasingly stands for whatever the more powerful and influential say it stands for. Should the guiding principle of corporations and the contracts that govern them have a place in the courtroom? Are legal processes and penalties that ignore the boundaries of the law acceptable in a country which has the ideal of "government by the people" as well as "for the people"? Is it acceptable for officials of the law to twist the law at will if the accused is considered "personally obnoxious"? This may not matter to you now because it is happening to Lawrence Phillips; but be forewarned: to ignore the exploitation of the constitutional and human rights of another is to give the offenders that same permission to ignore protections of your own "liberties".   It will be interesting to note how many of you will insist upon your "rights" should you fall out of public grace based on your response to "unjust" financial loss during the impending economic crisis. Like the "Bond" movie where a clever mask made the enemy think he was killing his rival while, in reality, destroying his own manpower; shall you soon experience the horror that your willingness to go along with violating the fair justice "rights" of persons promoted as "obnoxious" by media  (i.e. celebrities, pro-athletes, etc.) was but a pathway to neutralizing your own "rights" at the appointed time?
