The Hiring of Perkins Coie by the Oxford, Michigan Community School District, and the Failure of Restorative Practices.
The Hiring of Perkins Coie by the Oxford, Michigan Community School District, and the Failure of Restorative Practices.
The Ethan Crumbley OCSD cover-up, the absence of accountability, and more revelations to come.
First of all, this subject has been covered here on the Dangerous INFO Podcast with Jesse Jaymz and Truth for Oxford, back on December 9th, 2023.
This coming Monday, January 22nd, 2024, Truth for Oxford will be back on The Dangerous INFO Podcast live at 7:00pm, to share more corruption and information with the public regarding what led up to the murders of four Oxford High School students by Ethan Crumbley and the nefarious connections between their administration, outside political entities and what they may have in store as a district for the future. I assure you, the information that will be shared there is valuable and more corrupt than you can imagine, as this is a very deep rabbit hole that the public is unaware of.
With that said, in this Substack article I want to cover two major revelations as of last week, regarding the school district itself and a very suspicious move that they’ve made, specifically regarding the hiring of Perkins Coie, the notoriously corrupt international law firm. This is the same Perkins Coie that was directly involved in the “Russia Gate” hoax of then candidate President Donald Trump in 2016, which was illegally used to give the FBI access to wiretap the then Candidate for President. Perkins Coie was hired by Hillary Clinton to then seek out Fusion GPS to hire Christopher Steele, to falsify documents against the then candidate for President Donald Trump, back in 2016. This falsification then led to the first false impeachment of then President Trump in 2020. Perkins Coie is the law firm that Oxford Community School District has now hired to represent them regarding any and all school matters going forward. This is not normal.
From the website Influence Watch, they state the following regarding Perkins Coie:
“Perkins Coie is a Seattle-based law firm of more than 1,000 lawyers, roughly 40 of which work for its political law practice that serves Democratic and left-of-center political candidates and non-profit clients. Perkins Coie received at least $26 million for legal fees and related expenses during the 2016 election cycle for representing the Democratic National Committee (DNC), the Hillary for America committee, the Obama for America committee, and dozens of other Democratic and Democratic-aligned political campaign committees and advocacy organizations.
In 2018, billionaire left-wing donor George Soros gave $5 million to Perkins Coie so the political law practice could file lawsuits to eliminate mandatory voter identification requirements and other state regulations left-of-center activists argue depress turnout among left-leaning constituencies.1
Marc Elias, the former chair of the political law practice, was a central figure in the controversy regarding the creation, veracity, and subsequent handling of a document that alleges the existence of conspiracies between the Russian government and persons associated with the presidential campaign of Donald Trump. During April of 2016 Elias paid opposition research firm Fusion GPS to investigate then-presidential candidate Donald Trump on behalf of the Hillary Clinton campaign and the DNC. These payments led to the creation of a dossier which claimed the existence of a conspiracy between the Russian government and persons associated with the Trump campaign to illegally interfere in the Presidential election.2
The political law group has also represented Facebook before the Federal Election Commission in the social media giant’s effort to obtain an exemption for paid political campaign advertisements shown on its platform from a requirement to disclose the source of payment.3
Perkins Coie is a law firm headquartered in Seattle, Washington, with more than 1,000 lawyers in 19 offices spread across the United States, China, and Taiwan. Founded in 1912, it received an important early boost in business when William Boeing, founder of what is today known as the Boeing Company, selected Perkins Coie to represent his growing aircraft construction enterprise. Boeing is still a client, as are Microsoft, Starbucks, Amazon, Google, Facebook, Twitter, and other major corporations. The firm’s total annual revenue is nearly $800 million. Attorney John Devaney became the firm-wide managing partner (de facto CEO) on January 1, 2015.4
The Perkins Coie political law practice was begun in 1980 by attorney Robert Bauer, and the firm now claims it is the “dominant practice in the field” and largest in the nation, with 40 lawyers.5 Perkins Coie represents left-of-center political clients, and is the primary counsel for the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and many other large Democratic or left-leaning political organizations. The political law group has also represented a large collection of Democratic presidential candidates, governors, and members of Congress; FEC records show $26,062,007 total disbursements for legal fees and related expenses during the 2016 election cycle (January 1, 2015 – December 31, 2016) to Perkins Coie from all political sources.6”
My recommendation here is simple. You have to read the entire Influence Watch article linked here in order to grasp the motives and the far reach of this law firm, and their nefarious ties to the worst that left-wing politics has to offer. This law firm is directly tied to murderers, rapists, child traffickers, human traffickers etc. and now Oxford Michigan Community School District (OCSD) has hired them to be their main law firm moving forward. This is not a normal move for any school district, let alone one that is not within a major inner-city urban area.
In my opinion, there is no way that the district themselves thought to reach out to Perkins Coie to acquire them as their law firm. OCSD must have been told to consider hiring Perkins Coie, or they were told to hire them without any choice, from a nefarious outside party.
The simple fact that this school district has hired a law firm that is know for falsifying documents that led to the false allegations of a then candidate for President (which is the definition of election interference and a major crime) which then led to the false impeachment of a then sitting President years later (which is the definition of treason and sedition; also crimes punishable by death), should be all of the evidence that one needs to understand that this school district is controlled by the worst, from the outside, in, with help from the inside, out, while also unable to operate independently, and it’s evident they don’t have the safety of the students, staff, nor the surrounding community in mind moving forward.
It’s official. The Oxford Michigan School District is a criminal organization, and parents are still sending their children there, as employees continue to work there. This, too, continues to happen after the murders of four students and the negligence of the employees within that could have prevented this from occurring.
This now leads me to the presence and widespread existence of what is called “Restorative Practices.” Restorative Practices has a history that dates back to the 1970’s. For the sake of brevity, it’s a “social justice” method of talking with serious offenders and attempting to use communistic language, slogans, conferences and group mediation in order to get the offending individual or group to comply with a mistake they made, a law they broke, a person they hurt etc., all in an effort to give the offending party multiple chances to redeem themselves and “take responsibility” without ever holding them accountable for their actions though serious discipline, or expulsion from their environment where the offense took place. Restorative Practices is now the main method for “discipline intervention” that is used across all American K12 schools, including public, private, and charter institutions, if not university settings as well.
Restorative Practices is the counseling/mediation method that is and was employed by the Oxford Community School District administration in Oxford, Michigan, which allowed Ethan Crumbley to re-enter the school building, go back to class, and never be held accountable, nor have his backpack checked on that fateful day in the fall of 2021, when employees knew that he was mentally unstable, drawing pictures of guns, threatening to hurt others etc. Restorative Practices has also been adopted nationwide in an effort to decrease discipline referrals, detentions, in-and-out of school suspensions and expulsions, of not only offending students, but black students as well, as black students make up the majority of offending behaviors nationwide that occur within school environments, much like that of adult society outside of the school environment. It’s a social-justice, left-wing attempt to cover for the fact that blacks are the main offenders of illegal activity within schools and environments outside of schools.
Restorative Practices is also used within the judicial system worldwide, and it has been since it’s inception in an effort to lighten sentences for heinous crimes by giving the guilty parties a lowered sentence with counseling and mediation. Case in point, the murder of a white teenager by two blacks in the parking to of LeBron James’ charter school in Akron, Ohio and the light sentence that followed recently for both murderers.
Within the school environment, however, much like that out outside society, the distribution and enforcement of discipline and even that of Restorative Practices, is inconsistent and based on individual discretion. Just because one method is employed by one staff member in a school building, doesn’t mean that all staff members employ the same strategies. In fact, Restorative Practices attempts to communize the entire process by getting everyone on the same page and doing the same thing, but it never works.
The implementation of Restorative Practices also has a negative reverberating effect within school environments because it displays a lack of true accountability for minor and serious infractions alike, while the entire school environment (students and staff) are fully aware of who the offending parties are. For example, in my own doctoral dissertation, published in 2018, then again in 2020 in the Journal of Ethnographic & Qualitative Research, (v14 n4 p249-259 Sum 2020), I specifically examined the presence of Restorative Practices (among other professional development methods) within an Urban high school setting which had a student population of 74% White students. Overwhelmingly, the teacher population that was interviewed viewed Restorative Practices as worthless, dangerous, a waste of time, and a useless method that lacked true accountability, as offending students would always reoffend, knowing that they would not be held accountable, nor permanently removed (I’m paraphrasing my own published research from the past, so don’t call me an “antisemite” and fire me from Harvard 😉).
In conclusion, Restorative Practices proves it’s ineffective when murder takes place. After all, murder is the ultimate consequence of the failure of Restorative Practices. In the case of Ethan Crumbley, Restorative Practices was employed time and time again, leading to a lack to true accountability and an absence of thought regarding the safety of everyone, both within and outside of Oxford High School. This case alone proves that Restorative Practices is a colossal failure and it should never be used ever again within any environment.
Unfortunately, this has now led to the hiring of arguably the most corrupt law firm based in Seattle, Washington, Perkins Coie. Their representation of the Oxford Community School District in Oxford, should send up red-flags to everyone in America. Perkins Coie itself has the most nefarious ties to the most notorious murderers, gangsters, and political criminal organizations this county has ever seen, while potentially engaging in the election interference of a candidate for President of The United States and then allegedly engaging in treason and sedition for a then sitting President.
There will be more discussed on this issue this coming Monday, January 22nd, 2024, when Truth for Oxford will be back on The Dangerous INFO Podcast live at 7:00pm, specifically regarding the staff members involved within the OCSD and the questionable outside influence, perhaps even from foreign nations and other corporations.
