The 28th Of December Marks The Anniversary Of The Dismissal Of The Federal Charge Against Kai Patterson

The Federal Government Dismissed The Charge Against Kai Patterson On December 28, 2016; Making Today The Anniversary Of The Dismissal

After having a 13 count indictment against him in Morris County dismissed in 2011 from a false complaint filed against him by Frank Del Vecchio, false charges were dismissed against Kai Patterson in Hackensack’s Municipal Court in 2013, and by the Federal Government in 2016.

Kai D. Patterson

A customer of TD BANK issued Patterson a bad check, where Patterson also banked at the time.  The check that was issued to Patterson was for $5,500, and to ensure the check was good, Patterson took the check to a TD Bank branch, and asked the teller if the TD Bank check was good before he deposited the check into his TD Bank account.  According the dismissal filed by Patterson’s attorney named Alexandria Stremler, Esq., the check was accepted by TD Bank, the $5,500 was deposited into Patterson’s account, Patterson purchased the services for the issuer of the bad check, and the check was retuned two days after Patterson paid for the serves for the check issuer.  Rather than file criminal charges against the issuer of the bad check, which is a crime, TD Bank filed criminal charges against Patterson.  The charge filed against Patterson alleged the recipients of bad checks commit crimes when the deposit them into their accounts, instead of the issuers of bad checks, which sounds absurd.  The representative of TD Bank, argued that Patterson was at fault instead of the issuer of the bad check.  Patterson, and his attorney argued that if unknowing recipients of bad checks commit crimes when they deposit them into their bank accounts, the court that was prosecuting him commits a crime every time they deposit a bad check that’s issued to them by a person paying a court fee.  Patterson and his attorney also argued that TD Bank was negligent for clearing the bad check of their customer and depositing the funds into Patterson’s account, which was also their customer.  Unlike checks deposited from a foreign bank, TD Bank had access to the issuer’s account and should have never cleared the check.  Patterson and his attorney also argued that TD Bank should have deducted the funds from their issuer’s account since the funds were used to pay for services that Patterson provided to the issuer of the bad check. The judge agreed with Patterson, and the charge against him was dismissed (See Court Documents: https://bit.ly/2Q8f4x0).    

It turns out the bad check was issued to Patterson and returned before Patterson’s 13 the count indictment against him by Morris County was dismissed.  TD Bank was aware of the indictment, because the representative of TD Bank tried to use the indictment against Patterson.  By the time the case was sent from Elmwood Park’s Municipal Court to the Bergen County Superior Court so the charge could be elevated to a state felony charge, Patterson’s 13 count indictment in Morris County was dismissed (See: https://bit.ly/2MFwZJg).  Bergen County refused to elevate the charge and returned them to Elmwood Park.  The case was transferred the South Hackensack, because Elmwood Park didn’t want to pursue the matter.  This is an example of how court system “piles on” charges when there is an existing criminal matter against a defendant.  Rather than filed charges against the issuer of the bad check, TD Bank felt they had a “slam dunk” against Kai Patterson, because he was facing a 13 count indictment at the time the check was returned.  Fortunately for Patterson, the false charges against him in Morris County were dismissed, the judge in the TD Bank case wasn’t biased by the prior dismissed charges, and judge thought TD Bank’s claims were absurd.  It took almost 2 years for the case to be dismissed, because TD Bank diligently pursued the matter, and Patterson doggedly pursued the dismissal.  “We live in a world where people let their implicit biases guide them instead of the circumstances and facts.  Individuals who belong to certain demographics are easier to prosecute than others, and the courts will wrongfully prosecute members of those demographics instead of those responsible for committing the crimes.  Look at the number of people cleared through the “Innocence Project” and demographic of those disproportionately wrongfully prosecuted and convicted,” said Patterson.  The Innocence Project has led the release of several innocent individuals prosecuted by our criminal justice system (See: https://bit.ly/356LGeF).

The federal charges against Patterson were also dismissed in 2016, which is extremely rare because the federal conviction rate in the United States is 99.8% (See: https://bit.ly/2Q2uB14).  Although Patterson and Benjamin Kelsen, Esq., who was Patterson’s attorney in his federal case were able to provide proof that
Patterson was innocent in September of 2016, the dismissal was issued on the last business day of year on December 28, 2016.  “It was weird being on the wrong side of the federal criminal justice system, considering that I created technology to assist justice system in finding missing children with my AMBER Ready Application, I helped the U.S. Department of Justice prosecute Stevie A. Jordan (A.K.A. Stevie J) in 2014 (See: https://bit.ly/37mzdVx), and I served as a Lieutenant in the Marine Corps, where I took an oath to defend the constitution.  There was a time when I considered just ending my life, but with the support of so many friends, and knowing that I could prove my innocence, I didn’t.  I’m grateful to the Judge for dismissing this charge once he realized that I was innocent instead of scheduling a trial and leaving the matter up to 12 strangers.  Now that all of the pending legal matters are behind me, I have moved on with pursing my television series deal to help parents with child support dilemmas. I introduced AMBER Ready to the government at the municipal, county, state and federal levels, as well as trained agents how to use my concept and application to reduce sending out AMBER Alerts by up to 4-hours.  I also hosted joint events with government agents, where I received several endorsements (See: https://bit.ly/37jfxlu, https://bit.ly/2QzuXLY, https://bit.ly/2EYA6aX & https://bit.ly/39mhX4H).  I received a television deal that was initially contracted to pay me $65.5 million (https://bit.ly/2F0BNon). I recently received a new television deal that will pay me $146,601,000 for the first of two distributions of my television series, so I’m going to focus on reconstructing my life with my television initiative.  I have GOD to thank, because it was the mistyping of my e-mail address in the documents created have me wrongfully indicted in the Morris County (See: https://bit.ly/366UVwM), the dismissal of the Morris County indictments before the TD Bank court date, and a federal judge’s ability to see that I was innocent of the federal charge in the indictment that he dismissed that lead to dismissal of all 3 cases.” said Patterson.

Many of the endorsements were framed when I was an employee of AMBER Ready when Patterson was the CEO of the company, when the company had so much promise.  It has been more than 10 years the since drama began with AMBER Ready and Kai Patterson. He receives no compensation from the federal government for his concept, which is now their FBI Child Program (See: https://bit.ly/2MD1zmR).  It appears the final chapter of this drama has come to an end.  Frank Del Vecchio is no longer the Police Chief of the Fairview Police Department, AMBER Ready shutdown within a year after Patterson was no longer the CEO of the Company, John Thomas Financial was shutdown by the Securities and Exchange Commission for the fraud they committed against Kai Patterson, AMBER Ready and other companies (See: https://bit.ly/2rxDvu2), and Kai Patterson’s legal problems are behind him.
