Directions More Info. Demolition Man, Inc. Judge Eileen Kato has a long and documented history of doing whatever the Hell she wants on the bench, and this appears to us to be just another disgusting instance of this rogue behavior.
FACT: We then petitioned the court a second time to allow us to have a proxy represent us in small claims court. This petition to Judge Kato was not so polite because we were beginning to sense she was "off" and we were sick of that mentality in the courts. Again, Judge Eileen Kato explicitly and specifically disallowed ANY method of presenting our testimony except by personal appearance.
Again we were stunned. We were left to surmise that Judge Kato was adopting this position because, perhaps, she was a landlord herself, and was seeking to "help out" a fellow landlord wink wink. We could think of no other reason under the sun why any judge would refuse such a simple request. To this day we know of no other reason more on this later. FACT: We then subscribed to the services of the King County arbitration system in an effort to avoid court altogether and to simply get our lousy deposit back.
It was only at that particular point that we began to comprehend just how backwards and evil and illogical Bob Thoreson really was. FACT: We sent a registered letter to Judge Eileen Kato advising to cancel our small claims suit, advising that we now had no choice thanks to her but to hire an attorney and take the matter to real court. This letter was sent to the court. FACT: This letter to cancel the small claims suit was received and signed for by the court.
FACT: We sent a registered letter to Bob Thoreson advising him that the small claims suit had been cancelled and that we would go ahead with a full-on lawsuit in district court. FACT: We then retained Elena Garella, an attorney we had used for many years, whom we trusted implicitly, and who had done us a good many good deeds.
Elena took the case. We waited, and waited, and waited. Then Elena said she didn't want the case it was too small, and, she postulated, Thoreson would just likely lie on the stand anyway. By this time we had waited nearly a year for action and we told Elena that we truly wished she had made that decision long, long ago.
Elena immediately emailed back and said we had a point, that she was sorry, and that she would, after all, prosecute the case immediately and without further delay. Months passed, then more months, then many more months. We finally were asking demanding Elena to file the suit about twice per week. Elena continued to trade jokes and funny pictures with us, but conspicuously refused to address the suit. FACT: My wife was battling lung cancer and on a particular day we were given especially bad news.
I chose that time to tell Elena to file the suit or be fired. Elena chose to be fired, and we unfriended her as well. She had never filed the suit. That attorney mailed Thoreson a demand letter. Of course Thoreson refused to reply. He hired this attorney:.
Scott R. She had, instead, allowed it to be heard in the court, without ever notifying us that she was refusing to cancel the suit. The court never notified us that the suit was still being heard. I've raised one hundred and thirty one shipwrecks and some planes off the ocean bottom and performed three hundred and twenty one rescues in the northeast Pacific. I have learned that two thirds or more of all judges in this country are pudding-headed academics and that is exactly the wrong character for the job.
Thanks, "judge" Kato -- you are quite a piece of work. Thoreson found out that the suit had NOT been cancelled.
We doubt that Thoreson was intelligent enough to have contacted the court to inquire. Nothing in this man's background that we've seen indicates that he has the brains God gave a crowbar. So how did Thoreson find out?
We think Judge Eileen Kato caused Thoreson to be notified that the trial was still going to proceed, while NOT notifying us of the same thing. Is this FACT? So far it's conjecture. Let's see what time and research can turn up. FACT: Thoreson did show up for the small claims trial. Since we believed the trial had been cancelled, we didn't show up.
Thoreson was awarded a dismissal. But here's the part that tends to, in our minds, implicate Judge Kato even more strongly. Judge Kato had the choice of dismissing the case with prejudice, or without. Without prejudice would mean that the case could be re-filed at some later date. With prejudice meant that the case could never be re-filed in any court. FACT: That means that Bob Thoreson doesn't have to pay a dime to anyone, not the original deposit that he owed us by law, not any award a judge might have given us for ruined furniture, clothing and equipment, nothing.
So has "attorney" Scott R. Weaver done a service for his client? I'm sure he thinks so, and will continue to think so, for awhile.
But if not for Thoreson's skullduggery and that of countless landlords before him and to come, this website would have no reason to exist. So very often unintelligent and amoral "attorneys" are penny-wise and dollar stupid and they win some tiny victory for their client that turns into a huge and never-ending defeat for that client.
Had Weaver convinced his grossly dishonorable client Thoreson to do the right and honorable thing, this website would have had no reason to exist. But I can virtually guarantee that Bob's attorney never once brought up the possibility of any moral resolution of this case at all, but simply saw a way to help his client keep money that he had illegally taken two years previously, and I have no doubt this attorney actually believes he did the "right" thing.
After all, if it's technically "legal" to take money from a dying woman -- money that never, ever belonged to you in any sense in the first place, then it's also the right and moral and honorable thing to do, right?
Of course it is. Just ask any attorney at law. Those of poor character and little or no sense of honor or decency or morality will always think this way, and it could be argued that that very backwards thought process is what is documentably destroying the country.
I have come to realize that people become attorneys because they do not like the basic concepts of honor and morality, and that "the law" allows them tricky, sleazy, dishonest methods for skirting those basics of right and wrong.
I think any honorable attorney would have gone to his client and said, "Bob, why don't you just pay the money you owe? Have YOU ever met one? Did Scott R. Weaver advise his client to simply do the morally right thing in this case? There's no way to know for sure but my hunch and I'll stake my life on it is that he absolutely did not. Attorneys are taught in law school that "the law" IS morality, that as long as it's legal, it's morally defensible. OJ's murder was technically legal, so was it morally right and honorable too?
A misguided "attorney" might tell you it is. Certainly OJ's own foolish attorneys felt that way. Of course Bob's initial actions taking money that didn't belong to him were NOT legal. Could Bob actually be criminally prosecuted for fraud? Trust me, we'll exhaust every possibility, but the King County Prosecutor is well known world known as a matter of fact to be about as lazy and corrupt as any east coast mob.
That friend tells us that Thoreson laughs and jokes about how he screwed-over Rhonda. There is a TV commercial circulating at least on the cable networks in which features a young basketball player in a huddle with his team and coach. He speaks up and informs his coach that he although no one saw him do it, he "touched the ball" and the ball now technically belongs to the opposing team.
The kid wonders if he did the right thing by being honorable until the coach gets his attention and says, "Good call, Alex. We believe that Bob would never admit to such a thing because, after all, winning, no matter how it's done, is still winning, right Bob?
We believe that if everyone saw him touch the ball he'd deny it. We believe that if Bob Thoreson were videotaped touching the ball, he'd deny it.
We believe that if Bob Thoreson was carried from the game and dumped into the alley dumpster where he belongs, by his own outraged team and by his own fans, he'd deny ever touching the ball.
We believe that is the kind of man Robert Thoreson is in his heart. FACT: Rhonda is dying of her cancer. She's beaten and sick. Some days she can hardly hold her head up. When she was given the news by our attorney that Bob Thoreson had found a legal way in which to keep her money, she sat here and quietly cried. It was one of the last kicks in the face I hope she has to endure in this life time. How do you think Bob's dishonor and skullduggery makes a loving husband feel?
Think about it. Think about it long and hard. I wonder how I'll feel about this case when Rhonda is gone and I have the time to reflect and realize that hunks of human garbage like Robert Thoreson contributed hugely to Rhonda's weakness and general weariness of life.
I expect I'll realize that there really is a point beyond which a moral man cannot be pushed by the scum of the earth. Sometimes you must simply say: No. I've worked in many offshore industries, and in Federal Law enforcement, and I've enjoyed relationships and friendships with polygraph examiners, sociologists, many street cops in the family; I've lived in eleven states and three countries from the Arctic Circle to Mexico.
I have a pretty fair idea of what kinds of people make up the world. My estimate of the population of King County is that at any given moment there are between and people who, having been so maliciously screwed and stolen from by the likes of a slimy piece of human garbage like Bob Thoreson, would simply walk up to the man, put three bullets in his face, and walk away and to Hell with the consequences. Of course that would be highly illegal and we can all pray that nothing like that ever happens to Bob Thoreson.
But Bob has a lot of rentals, and this behavior seems to be his normal behavior, and my fear is that if he continues to blatantly screw people over and steal from them, even legally, or maybe especially legally, he will eventually, ultimately, inevitably, screw the wrong person. I think if Bob continues to rent apartments, and continues to take money that doesn't belong to him, this will happen to him sooner or later.
I believe it's only a matter of time. Would I ever do something "illegal" to Bob Thoreson? I want this man alive and I value my freedom far too much to lose it over a petty, mentally retarded thief. If Bob Thoreson ever causes me or mine one nanosecond more of grief I'll abandon my manners and handle this matter in a way so different from this polite website that it will be like the difference between darkness and daylight, and I trust that Bob Thoreson has at least learned one thing: I don't bluff.
What does that mean? There are literally hundreds of options but here's one possibility, still probably too polite for my tastes, but it's a possibility nevertheless:. Bob is welcome to try to sue me for that, and I beg him to -- that will give me the gift of subpoena authority and discovery and he cannot begin to imagine what I can do with that.
I don't think Bob Thoreson thinks anything he's done in this case is in any way bad or wrong. I don't think he understands when others think what he has done is immoral and wrong. I think he sees himself as "cute" and "clever" and the smartest man in any room always. I think his smug demeanor in the picture at the top of this page illustrates his core character perfectly. I think Thoreson believes, as so many attorneys believe, that if you can get away with a thing, then that thing is a perfectly fine and socially and morally acceptable thing to do.
My hunch is that he has believed this nonsense since childhood it's always ok if you don't get caught and that he will never change, as a leopard can never shed its spots. It's in his bloody DNA. I can't help but wonder what kinds of things poor HomeRX clients find after Thoreson has "renovated" their home and is long gone from the scene.
Has this jackass been sued before? Trust me, we'll find out. And what happened to the old company he owned called "Laserviews"? Bob could have done this as the moral and honorable thing to do, but I am certain he laughed at Rhonda, in her weakness, having to spend more and more on attorneys to simply get his conceited self to respond, and I am positive that honor and morality are not now and have never have been part of Thoreson's vocabulary.
You don't ACT like he does if you have even a modicum of understanding of those concepts. Men who understand and grasp the concepts of honor and decency don't act dishonorably and indecently. Bob could have saved himself the money he spent on this Weaver character, for God's sake, by advising us that the small claims suit had not been cancelled, but the stupid son of a bitch wasn't even smart enough to do it for that reason.
This man is an imbecile, and one who doesn't mind taking what doesn't belong to him. I call that theft and I call Bob Thoreson a thief. As far as the court not notifying us that it was not going to honor or act upon our instruction to cancel the small claims suit, I don't yet know if it would be standard procedure for them to do so. Certainly common sense would dictate that they do so, but courts and common sense are concepts usually utterly at odds with one another.
If it is standard procedure for a court to notify both parties of the outcome of a trial, then we may have yet another instance of skullduggery or even downright corruption by Judge Kato, because Kato didn't bloody do it and once again we would wonder WHY. Time will tell as we sort this out and research it. With regard to Judge Kato, she appears to us to be just another King County Judge in a long and disgusting litany who feels she has the right to steer outcomes of legal cases by using a sneaky little tweak here, or there, or wherever she wants and feels she can get away with it and her judicial reprimand record shows that she's no prize or princess to the people of King County; she does what she wants.
She CHOSE parts of how this case would play out, we believe, for no reason that we can begin to imagine except that she likes to side with landlords. We're checking now to see if she's a landlord herself.
Honestly, this is how many King County "judges" act. We have not seen any King County Judge to be, substantively, much more honorable than this. Remember "Judge" Bobbe Bridge? Who could forget her. The judicial system in every state, but perhaps especially in King County, Washington, is rife with this low level of human being.
God help us all. We fear the terrorists, on a scale, about a "1". We fear judges like this, on a scale, about an "8". Bob has won a few hundred bucks here, or a few thousand depending on your point of view, not because he deserved it, but because he decided to simply TAKE IT and he got lucky and a faulty court allowed him to keep it. He originally took it illegally from a woman who works 55 hours a week in a restaurant, who is now dying of cancer, who could have used her deposit refund to pay for a few of the Thoreson was always just one step ahead of her, plotting, scheming, always working to find a way to keep money that wasn't his to keep.
Bob Thoreson simply took this money because he wanted this money, and through a comedy of errors and perhaps a crooked judge, the law upheld Bob Thoreson's taking of money that didn't belong to him. He caused Rhonda's belongings, clothing and furniture to be utterly ruined through his incompetence and stupidity and arrogance, and he found a way not to compensate her for that. He simply TOOK her deposit, which he owed and which he was legally bound to refund, because HE wanted the three hundred or so bucks and HE was determined to have it, even if he didn't deserve it and had no legal claim to it at the time.
I can't help but wonder what kind of a childhood this little shit had. Were his schoolmates afraid to let him in their houses for fear of what toys would come up missing? I'd bet on it. I'm going to give this page a rest for a month or so, then I'll clean it up, add to it, do some research on this "judge" and on Thoreson himself.
I want to speak with some of his business associates; I want to run his records; I want to find out who else he's fucked throughout his miserable lifetime. Once that's done, I'll send this website to every tenant he has now, and I'll make sure every tenant he ever has in the future, for the rest of his life, sees this and knows to treat the man with the care they'd treat any other slinking snake-in-the-grass.
