CHECKS AND BALANCES

Joost Italianer is a lawyer. He works for one of the bigger firms, Nauta Dutilh, in Amsterdam. He represents several major accounting firms on fraud related issues and criminal investigations. The website also states he conducted a large internal investigation for a major Dutch bank.

Member of the Capital Market Advisory Committee of the Authority for the Financial Markets. Thrown in casually almost, the firm mentions that Italianer is a judge at the Haarlem Criminal Court.

Update:

The Politician of the Year has presented his manifesto for the upcoming parliamentary elections, on one single sheet of paper: ”de-islamize” the country altogether, ”strip the girls of their headscarves, close islamic schools and mosques, and ban the Koran”.

The wonder boy of the left on his turn published an essay on how to achieve a more empathic society, ”the search for identity and common ground”. Not exactly sure what he means by common ground.

Police ''assume" it's a natural death, because "at first glance" there were no suspicious circumstances. They made the telephone call to Finland and informed the parents that their son won't return home. Case closed.

Jassim Aba Al-Khail (22) just started his study European Law at Maastricht University. He was found dead in his room, Statensingel 173, last Thursday. Actual cause of death remains undisclosed.

TBS Clinic De Rooyse Wissel in the News: Cocaine, weapons, missing patients, dead patients – three in three days – heroine, hostage situations and sex with the staff. And that’s only after reading a few articles from this seemingly infiniteGoogle listing.

Reading a bit longer and, again, the MU Forensic Psychology Department pops up. There’s a flow of money from De Rooyse Wissel to Maastricht University, in exchange for research results that should lead to faster resocialization of patients.

At the same time, MU forensic psychologists have a job on the side as expert witness Pro Justitia, which, in theory, means they submit objective reports about suspects at the request of the DA or the Judge. In practice, they help sending away considerable numbers of people, you guessed it, to TBS clinics.

Turns out that Dr. Otgaar c.s. assess mental state not only regarding violent crime, for which TBS originally was intended. Just a few weeks ago, a man from the Maastricht area was convicted to two years clinic for not paying the bill in a few restaurants.

In 2012 the EU Human Rights Court ruled that the Netherlands immediatly release a couple of hundred petty crime offenders from TBS clinics. The Dutch Supreme Court 'overruled' the verdict. Non-existent in legal terms, but quite a creative solution if you’re unable to comply. Problem with those numbers. The discrepancies between what goes in and what comes out are becoming more obvious.

NRC journalists discovered that 38 citizens, without a warrant from the Judge, went in through the back door. Locked up for undefined amounts of time. If they leave alive at all. The Justice Department responded: these people are ”potential offenders of the law”.

BLACK OR BLUE?

Amir's shoe played an essential role throughout the police file. Officer Frijns ''confiscated a black sneaker at 0.200 a.m. dec 1, in front of nightclub Backstage'' (page 41,42,43). A forensics officer with a dog was called in to sniff the shoe and do a search. 

This officer, Hartkamp, describes on page 44 he received a blue sneaker from his colleague. These police actions were among the first that night. They were registered last in the row. With numbers 2007170431-83 an 84.

 Plainclothes officer takes charge. Suspect ”wouldn’t cooperate”, according to police spokesperson. Arnhem, Gelderland. May 3rd.

It was a hilarious scene: mayor Hoes left the building, 10 December 2014, resigned from office. The next day he was back and reinstated himself for another six months. Without even a hint of hesitation he said that ''this is best for the city''. Courtesy of the Interior Minister, who gave Hoes the green light.

Fast Forward. Thursday April 23th 2015. 
The City Council Selection Committee announces the new mayor. Ceremony begins at 8:30 p.m. The L1 anchor opens with a surprise: ”there is a delay, a ‘quarrel’ has arisen at City Hall”.

”Around 9 p.m.”, as Annemarie Penn testifies in this Elsevier article, ”I got the phone call from the Committee Chairwoman, ‘may I congratulate you’ ”. As if it were some kind of Oscar Night where the contestants are waiting for the magic moment; and the winner is…

The media introduced Penn as a candidate two days before the announcement. Top favourite Roger Van Boxtel miraculously ended up in the bin. He likely wasn’t qualified for the job at hand: defending the heritage of St. Servatius, a job Penn had done so well in the past.

The first Marc Cornelissen Brightlands Award will be presented this year to commemorate the polar explorer's legacy. Not so fast. One issue is still pending. It patiently sits right at the top of Cornelissen's Twitter Timeline.

In his 2012 book, Jew Hunt, investigative journalist Ad van Liempt exposed files on 250 Dutch police officers who organized units to locate and arrest Jews in hiding.

"Officers received a bonus for every Jew they arrested. But money was not the main motivation - they were largely driven by anti-Semitism. Every large town in the Netherlands had such units and they used excessive force against the Jews during the raids. Officers beat, raped and plundered, some so fanatically that even the Germans told them to tone it down."

CUTTING, PASTING & COPYING. OLD SKOOL

Page 283 in the Amir Ibrahim file: police report 2007170431-52, an overview of all police activities in the case, dated and signed 20 July 2008.

Page 296: again, police report 2007170431-52, different content. The existence of double registration numbers is not possible in X-Pol Registration. Not in the official software version anyway.

If even the form number at the bottom of the page - chronologically allocated by the computer - is the same on both police reports, that only can mean one thing: cutting, pasting and copying with scissors, tape, Tipp-ex and the Xerox machine.
