First and foremost... all that I have input into this forum is public knowledge already whether it has been uncovered yet or not. For someone to attack my ethics in this situation is a result of pure speculation and ignorance about the facts concerning my legal, moral, and confidentially obligations in this situation. This is only directed at you. You know who you are. <br><br>As the articles state, I too, understood that Amero was incarcerated for some kind of bombing incident, and there was also talk that he spat on several different individuals which he came into contact with during legal hearings, including Judges. He was also maintaining a hit list of individuals whom he considered his "enemies" threatening to kill all of them. I was one of those he considered an "enemy". <br><br>As far as his childhood history (or lack of) is concerned, I have no more information about his childhood than what you have already heard or read in the papers. To add credibility to those reports, though, this information you have was what we were told at Preston. <br><br>Preston or PSI (Preston School of Industry) during the time Amero was housed, was a faculity run by the California Youth Authority located in Ione, California. Allison Nicholson (as stated in your quote) was at one time the Supt. of Preston which coincided with some Amero's stay at Preston. She is not now in that capacity. Preston's main function was to help the wards (youthful offenders) gain the knowledge and skills needed to rehabilitate themselves into productive citizens once released. These wards were comprised of Juvenile offenders from the age of 16-25 (any ward younger than that was housed in a different YA faculity) at Preston. Some of the wards were "M" numbers which meant that they were a part of the adult prison system CDC, but were not sophistacated enough to survive in an adult faculity. Therefore they were sent to the CYA and housed there until they were older and able to cope in an adult prison. Preston housed many types of offenders from non violent crimes to the most serious such as rape, murder, kidnapping, extortion ect...They were all housed together, with efforts made to keep the minors seperate from the adults.<br><br>I know that he did have an incredible hatred toward his Mother, which he verbalized to everyone in no uncertain terms. The odd thing about this hatred was that he allowed his mother to come visit him every week during visiting hours. Most likely to allow her to put money into his books, which he used whenever he could to purchase canteen items from the Preston store. His Aunt came to visit him on ocassion too, but I do not know too much about her. His Aunt and Mother both were involved in some ways with Amero during some of his many Lawsuits brought against Preston and many other individuals during his stay in the Youth Authority.<br><br>I would say that Amero's vision of his own Government was a combination of the occult, neonazi, and anti Biblical elements combined with fantasy reality. He was most definately in opposition to the Christian religion. At the time I would even say he delved into Satanism for a period. In his book he mentions "horsemen" who's main purpose was to inflict death on the "enemies" of his State.<br><br>I have never heard of the WSA until the bombing incident, so my limited knowledge about his connections with this entity are only as a result of recent publications about Amero now. To my knowledge he did not have any connections during his incarceration. He did have access to the internet at the Library (which many Staff did not approve of because of all of the negative aspects with offenders related to the internet and ease of gathering information i.e. names, addresses ect...) He could have gained information there, but we had no way of knowing.<br><br>His psychological classification was not information I needed or had access too, so I cannot comment on his actual psychological diagnosis. He was a very paranoid individual. Everyone at Preston was his enemy, trying to get to him. He also had no empathy for others which would explain how he feels that what he did (Bolivian bombing) was not something he was guilty of while at the same time admittng to the bombing. He was only concerned with himself. <br><br>Again his background as a child and speculated abuse was not information I had or needed, so I cannot comment on that with any authority.<br><br>I might be stepping out on a limb here, as there were several wards at Preston, who were "visited" by Secret Service agents because of death threats they made to the President at that time, but I do believe that he was one of them. I cannot say this with any authority though.<br><br>As far as his claims of abuse by his family and or Government, I do not know about any family abuse, but I do know that he was always claiming abuse by Government officials and Staff at Preston and Preston itself. I know that those claims of abuse against Staff and Preston had no more truth to them than his current claims he has made about his religious and legal backgrounds as well as the names he goes by. His main purpose for these accusations and legal lawsuits were to harrass and break down the system which held him. He knew that Preston was responsible for all of the legal costs associated with his lawsuits which as a "Ward of the Court" he was not required to pay for. The State was. I know first hand some of the costs involved just in the legal filing fees and consultations with the States Attorneys. It was not cheap. His thought were that if he continued to overload the system with these phony lawsuits, the State would not be so eager to deny his parole, which they had done many times before, as he was always "A danger to others". I am not sure if that worked or not.<br><br>As far as the different lodges at Preston, it seems, that you have already discovered what Tamarack and Redwood lodges responsibilities and or conditions were, although I do not agree with many of the descriptions given about Tamarack. That is an altogether different topic. Which I would be willing to discuss with anyone, anytime. I feel that special interest groups made this very necessary unit look like a dungeon so that they could advance their specific agenda. It was a sad day for Preston Staff when that unit was closed down. Their already tough job just got tougher and much more dangerous.<br><br>The other units I mentioned earlier were Juniper, and Ironwood. Amero was housed on other units but they were just regular open dorm housing units for regular (non violent) programmers. Ironwood and Juniper units at that time were units which housed wards who had violent and or behaviorial issues which were not acceptable on the regular units, or Hill units, which thet were referred too as they were on a hill sitting above many of the other special units within Prestons faculity.<br><br>Wards would be housed on Ironwood or Juniper lodges as a last chance remedy before being sent to Tamarack. These units were very controlled but not quite as controlled as Tamarack, Ironwood was more controlled than Juniper. The program on these units tried to integrate the Wards back into the "regular program" units over a course of several months through various programs which rewarded good behaviour with extra priviledges (Behavior Modification). In many cases the Ironwood and Juniper units became mini Tamarack lodges as much of the time Tamarack was filled up and wards who needed to be housed there were housed on Ironwood and Juniper, as a result, these units had a reputation for being very violent lodges. It was not uncommon to have several fights and or small riots (10-20 wards) every day in which mace, gas and physical injuries were the norm rather than the exception. Most of the violence was directed towards wards by wards. On ocassion it was ward or wards on Staff. Juniper was called Jumping "J" because riots jumped off all of the time. If the wards continually failed the Ironwood program they would be sent to Tamarack. If wards failed the Juniper program several times they would be sent to Ironwood. If they passed Juniper's program they would go back to the "hill lodges". A ward would have to work very hard or participate in a very violent incident to be sent to the Tamarack program. Amero was on Tamarack lodge. <br><br>Unfortunately I cannot give any specific information about my capacity at Preston and direct interactions with Amero because of the death threats he (and others) have made against me at Preston. I am comfortable giving basic information as there are many Staff on his hit list and it would be difficult for anyone to discerne who I am (I hope) and find. With Amero in jail for most of his remaining life I feel more comfortable, but still, after statements he made concerning "making new connections" through this incident (bombing and the publicity it brings) I watch over my shoulder always as a matter of self preservation. It is just part of my life after working with the criminal element.<br><br>Concerning the book Amero wrote.... maybe some day I can find it and publish it onto the web. I will have to think about that, especially after accusations of unethical behavior by one of this forums reader and or contributor. That just might border on the line of ethical improprieties! <br><br>In closing, I would like to resubmit my thoughts that Tristan Amero was not a product of the US Governments attempts to destabilize the Bolivian Government regardless of the coincidences and timings of his attempted bombing of the Chilean embassy. <br><br>His mental state was that of one who would not cooperate with any Government, or any figure which represented an authority figure to him. He despised the US Government and I am thinking that he felt the same way about the Bolivian Government for one reason or another and was just following the same learned behaviours he developed as a child from whatever type of an environment he was forced to live, only this time with a much more devastating and deadly result which was enhanced by his ability to gather, process, assimilate, plan and carry out the diabolical deed which was refined as a result of his experiences as an adult in a much more violent world.<br><br> <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p216.ezboard.com/brigorousintuition.showUserPublicProfile?gid=nemysyssss>Nemysyssss</A> at: 4/8/06 1:32 pm<br></i>
