The Rawest Manipulator - Broken Silence To 9-11

The Amazon page does not currently have a full description. Below is a version I've drafted and approved. It leads with my pending California Supreme Court habeas petition (Case No. S295638), filed in March under the California Racial Justice Act as amended by AB 1071. That framing is the strongest credibility anchor I have right now, and it's the one legal and criminal-justice press are most likely to respond to. A man tried to warn America before September 11, 2001. No one listened. Twenty-five years later, the California Supreme Court is being asked to look at why. From a Los Angeles County Jail cell in the summer of 2001, Kirell F. Bettis-Taylor - known to many as Dr. Sadeeq - filed handwritten motions, wrote ex parte letters to judges, and called the FBI. On September 7, 2001, dressed in Islamic attire during jury selection at his own murder trial, he asked a juror on the open court record how they would feel if "a terrorist attack committed by so-called Muslims" appeared in the news during his trial. Four days later, the towers fell. The Rawest Manipulator: Broken Silence to 9/11 is his account - drawn from court reporter's transcripts, the 9/11 Commission Report, and twenty-seven years of incarceration - of what he tried to say, who refused to hear it, and what happened to a visibly Muslim Black defendant on trial in the days immediately after September 11. This is not a conspiracy book. It is a record. Every claim is anchored in a transcript citation, a docket entry, or a published government document. It is also the foundation of a pending California Supreme Court habeas petition (Case No. S295638) filed under the California Racial Justice Act as amended by AB 1071 - one of the first petitions to test the new law's reach into post-9/11 anti-Muslim juror bias. Whether you come to this book through faith, the law, criminal justice reform, or the long shadow of September 11, you will not read it the same way you read anything else about that day. "My silence holds much volume." - Kirell F. Bettis-Taylor, ex parte letter to Judge Rosenblatt, June 19, 2001 (in the court file)
