Maybe Pinkney is too Stupid to Know what an Account Number is, But Why are the City Clerks Colluding?
The City of Beaumont never advertised for a City Attorney, the Law Firm of Slovak Baron Empey Murphy Pinkney just magically appeared to replace the Law Firm of Aklufi Wysocki.
John Pinkney assumed the position as Beaumont City Attorney. In the last two years the Law Firm of Slovak Baron Empey Murphy Pinkney has broke more State and Federal Laws and carried off five times more money than Aklufi Wysocki did in their 20 years of corruption.
In an attempt to cover up past criminal activity; Pinkney has confiscated/destroyed Government Records and has repeatedly lied about the City’s Mello Roos Bond Fund Accounts; specifically about the need to black-out bond fund account numbers.
Pinkney claims that the Account Numbers on the Bond Fund Accounts must be blocked out and Pinkney’s claim has included the City Clerks. The Law Firm of Slovak Baron Empey Murphy Pinkney has charged the City unknown amounts of money to block out the Bond Fund Account Numbers, the amount of money is unknown because Pinkney claims that his Invoices are ‘Attorney-Client Privilege’ that even Council is not privy to.
While holding the position of City Clerk; Councilman Julio Martinez read a statement in Council that ‘he investigated’ whether the Bond Fund Accounts actually needed to be blocked out, but his ‘investigation’ was ‘inconclusive’.
Pinkney has previously claimed that the Union Bank Bond Fund Account Number had to be blocked out, but when the City switched Bond Trustees to Wilmington Trust the Bond Fund Accounts would be released without mutilation.
However; at the September 19, 2017 Beaumont City Council Meeting Pinkney claimed that Deputy City Clerk Nicole Acosta-Wheelwright was told by Wilmington Trust that the Bond Fund Accounts could ‘absolutely not’ be released without blacking out the Bond Fund Account Numbers.
It could be that Pinkney is honestly too stupid to know the difference between an accounting code and a bank account number, but once Pinkney started making up lies about the Banks’ verification; we’ve stepped out of stupid and into Fraud and Record Tampering.
And how do we know for a fact that Pinkney and the City Clerks are lying?
Because Accounting Codes are NOT bank account numbers and all the lies on earth will not change that fact.
