Background on the foreclosure and eviction of the Kinney family from the Red House on N Mississippi Ave in Portland: #portland #redhouse
The Kinneys legal troubles began in 2002 when William Kinney III, 17, ran a stop sign on SE 33rd Av and Franklin St at 45 to 60 mph, colliding with another car and resulting in the death of Fred Goetz, 74. William was driving with a suspended license. https://nwlaborpress.org/klare/030102.html
William Kinney was charged with manslaughter and assault. He eventually pleaded guilty, served time and his license was revoked for life, which will become important later. http://badlawyernyc.blogspot.com/2010/09/contempt-of-court.html
The Kinneys mortgaged their house for $96,300 from Freedom Home Mortgage Corporation to afford a lawyer for their son. They refinanced for $126,524.92 with Beneficial Oregon, Inc, in 2004. Loan was resold several times. https://casetext.com/case/nietzche-v-freedom-home-mortg-corp
Here's where it gets weird. In 2007, William III was caught driving without a license and cocaine, but William believes he's a sovereign citizen who doesn't have to follow the laws of Oregon or the United States. https://www.oregonlive.com/portland/2010/09/judge_takes_unusual_step_of_sl.html
In 2010, he was arrested again. Someone in his family made this amazing blog post detailing the encounter and the court that followed. It's difficult to follow, so let me some it up: https://alt.illuminati.narkive.com/IFvX2BAW/a-letter-from-william-kinney-iii-the-slaying-of-goliath-in-multnomah-county-oregon
William is driving a van with his brother Michael and another passenger. A federal marshal recognizes the passenger as a fugitive, and so they're stopped, pulled out the car, cuffed and searched. Michael refuses to identify himself, just saying that he is a peaceful man.
As their parent puts it, "He was detained against his will for several hours, because he would
not admit to a legal (FICTIONAL) name that he was just a peaceful man."
not admit to a legal (FICTIONAL) name that he was just a peaceful man."
"They gave him JOHN DOE, booked him, violating his Constitutional Rights taking his mug shot and fingerprints against his will. Then releasing him with a "set-belt ticket" after using excessive force than holding him against his will ('arrest')."
William is held due to all the court dates he skipped out. Turns out he and his parents believe he doesn't need a license: "Williams Mother filed with the court for both case numbers his copyright and related documents, the DEBTOR birth certificate,
"also included with this filing was his rescission from
all Contract with the State of OREGON and a specific one sent directly to DMV, which means there was 'no' license to Suspend." This is standard Sovereign Citizen stuff.

William goes on a 11-day hunger strike, passes out. He has this conversation with his lawyer: "During this
conversation he said he asked Fishback [his lawyer]: Why is this STATE coming after him so hard? Do they just want to force him to be a 14th Amendment Citizen?

"Attorney Fishback would not answer at first.
William explained that he understood that the 14th Amendment was created for the Black Man! and asked Fishback again 'Are you considered a 14th Amendment Citizen? William said he than answered, I'm Not a Black Man!

"William repeated but are you a 14th Amendment
Citizen? Attorney Fishback said to him I am a citizen of the United States of America, and than he refused to talk anymore about the citizen status."

William requests a hearing to fire his lawyer, but the court is by now worried about his mental state, and he's transferred to a hospital. He continues to resist everything, even his blood pressure being taken. He tells the doctors he's a political prisoner.
He's eventually ruled competent and sentenced to 5 1/2 years in prison. He's also found in contempt of court 12 times because he wouldn't shut up during the trial. https://www.oregonlive.com/portland/2010/09/judge_takes_unusual_step_of_sl.html
2017 Kinneys stop paying their mortgage. They send this court: "I, by affidavit am a declared living American sovereign standing with Treaty Law of God do accept your offer for value and for the following reasons I am returning your offer, rejected, for discharge and closure:
"You have brought United States corporate law with color outside your jurisdiction and without an international treaty within My republic State as you have no jurisdiction on the land of Oregon;
"You have falsely accused me of being a citizen of the UNITED STATES" (capitalization is really important to sovereign citizens) https://casetext.com/case/nietzche-v-freedom-home-mortg-corp
This doesn't work, and after missing 17 payments, they're foreclosed on in 2018. At this point, the Kinneys start to make an endless series of nonsensical appeals in the courts.
William is now going by William X. Nietzche (note the spelling), and refers to his parents as "Mickey, Pharaoh; and Jewel, Empress of Compassion." William threatens a judge and is found in contempt (again) https://twitter.com/BaghdadBrian/status/1306275945691578368
Now William is claiming all kind of crazy shit.
I highly suggest you watch all 6 minutes of that video, because it starts off reasonable, and then he starts talking about seizing the court under a Morrocan treaty and Emperor Omari Jibri.
According to The Oregonian, they were originally ordered out of the house in 2018. They've argued that the moreatorium on foreclosures should protect them, but a judge in September ordered them to leave. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.oregonlive.com/portland/2020/12/at-least-7-arrested-at-n-mississippi-home-where-protesters-have-camped-to-prevent-eviction.html%3foutputType=amp
About 200 people have camped out in front of the Red House, erecting barricades and blocking traffic in the street. Portland police say they've had numerous complaints, including reports of guns and gunshots, from the camp
"The Sheriff’s Office said it gave the people there time to gather their things and offered them housing and shelter options, as well as other resources." https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.oregonlive.com/portland/2020/12/at-least-7-arrested-at-n-mississippi-home-where-protesters-have-camped-to-prevent-eviction.html%3foutputType=amp
This looks to be another CHAZ situation or a standoff like Amon Bundy (also sovereign citizens). Loss of life is a real possibility here. At least two people died in Seattle's CHAZ and one in the Bundy standoff
Ted Wheeler says that there will be no autonomous zone in Portland and vows to clear the protestors out
