"They hired a person that agreed to defend me, but refused to do so in court. I wasn't allowed to speak so I couldn't even defend myself. Their last name begins with R. I could only sit there in disbelief and beg her to say something, writing down ways to prove an entire testimony was a lie. They won because they perjured themselves. This case was appealed because I had previously won. I do not have a law degree but was able to win. While an attorney (ca) lost my case. I was treated unfairly by the judge. Not to mention there was a last minute change in schedule, I was given a different judge than the one scheduled. My attorney was working as an intern as well as finishing school. Right after losing my case, she was rewarded with a better job. She told me this two days after losing my case, that she had been promoted. I was stolen from (non-replaceble items) as well as replaceable (money etc). This happened several times, but the last time they were able to get my savings and other expensive items. She sold her soul, then lied to my face. It's not ok to steal from(insured) stores in SF, but it's ok to steal from people that have less than the people that are responsible for theft. The stores get some type of compensation. They didn't even award me one cent (I thought that the amount awarded may change) not that I would get nothing! While the general public are at risk of being victims of people that abuse power. There's very little integrity. I was abducted, separated from my belongings illegally by someone who did not have the authority to do so (and so they could be stolen) then told that my belongings were not there and that they never existed. I was restrained and prevented from grabbing any of my property. How would you feel if you were sitting with your belongings, then all of a sudden over-powered by three men whose intention is theft and you can't stop them because you are female and alone. Some of the items were from deceased people(all that I had left of loved ones.) items that I had for years(decades) because I was always careful not to lose them. They're gone now because of theft, greed,and evil hatred stemming from someone who could not accept the reality of their life, instead taking items of mine because they were unable to attain their own. Stealing my things don't make them yours, they're still mine and it doesn't change fact that they are not your property just because you stole it."
