I just came across this post I ran last August. It’s all about how some chucklehead named Davis Barber posted a story on his local blog about Richard Fritschie – who popped up almost on cue to spin a yarn that exonerated the cops in the beating death of Kelly Thomas. After that we have heard nothing more from Mr. Fritschie. I wonder why not. I also still wonder, as did “Mark S.” how this “witness” was put in contact with Barber in the first place, real convenient, like.
For some reason I can’t get the smug, rotund countenance of Sergeant Andrew Goodrich out of my mind ever since Mark S. put it there.
- Mr. Peabody
I just received an e-mail from one of our Friends that has to do with a new-found witness to the Kelly Thomas bludgeoning death. I’ll let our correspondent do the talking:

Enjoying a latte at the Downtown Plaza.
Hey, FFFF, over at the Fullerton Stories website they have a post about some person calling himself Richard Fritschie (image attached) who claims that he saw the Thomas homicide and that justifies the horrible beating and torture Kelly received at the hands of the FPD. Mr. Ritschie claims to be a street person and an itinerant jewelry peddler.
The narrative was both unconvincing and evidently self-serving. He repeats the specious claims by others that if Kelly hadn’t “resisted” he would be alive today, a completely unfounded and irrelevant assertion. He also claims that he has always been nicely treated by FPD. Of course the fortuitous appearance of this character eight weeks after the attack is suspicious in itself.
The most distasteful part of this post is the headline New Witness in Thomas Case Defends Police. I know that this website is dedicated to the usual, hollow happy talk about Fullerton; you know the thing: Chamber of Commerce/City Hall boosterism. It’s proprietor, Davis Barber, recently published a post in which he implied we should be thankful that the City provides us with a forum for public comment. But this latest effort really takes the cake.
After a bit of reflection I began to wonder how and why this Fritschie fellow would even get in touch with Fullerton Stories, or vice versa. Then it hit me: FPD or the DA made the hook-up. That would be par for police spokesman Andrew Goodrich’s course: selective and self-serving leaking of information while simultaneously telling the public that we must be patient and wait for the fair and objective “investigation” by Tony Rackauckas, the guy who has never prosecuted an Orange County cop for excessive force!
Anyway, keep up the good work FFFF! The truth hurts, but the truth will set Fullerton free.
Mark S.

NOTE TO KELLY’S ARMY:
Don’t let your gaurd down. The powers that be are counting on you to distracted by your day to day lives and the memory of KT begins to fade.
First, they remove the lighting rod in the room Sellars (temporarily) in the meantime, they dispatch guys like this shill, T-RACK and SKS begin to make “editorial apperances”, the FPOA begins to have it’s minions flood the comments section of the OCR and other outlets.
Finally, they’ll wait as long as politically possible to release the fixed up findings.
THIS IS HOW THEY PLAY.
#2 by One for the books on August 30, 2011
Who cares… let them play their games!
If you remember, Rodney King was seriously beaten (NOT killed) by LAPD and they were eventually convicted in federal court!!
Any questions?
#3 by Tony Serra on August 30, 2011
No question but a comment.
The officers WALKED during the municipal trial, because of WEAK prosocution, that sparked the LA RIOTS!
It wasn’t until after that event that US Attorney’s at the direction of William Barr, the then US Attorney General, who as a staunch republican was worried about the reelection of the President.
By the time the trial ended two and a half years later only two of the four officers were convicted, sentenced to thirty months each in a minimum security facility where they served less than half the time.
The Kelly Thomas beating is vastly different. To your point however, I hope the FED’S keep up the pressure.
#4 by One for the books on August 30, 2011
It is obvious that by the death of Kelly Thomas at the hands of the police, this case is far worse from a standpoint of federal civil rights violations. If there are no federal charges in this case, I will fall out of my chair in disbelief and disgust!!
#5 by Kim on August 30, 2011
My thoughts then (of course, I was a teenager back then) was that it was double jeopardy for the cops. Oh, you don’t get a conviction the first time around? Try something else in federal court to get ‘em! Blame the DA’s office for bad prosecution and learn from it and move on without committing double jeopardy, because the defense team did their jobs and packed the jury full of NRA members, from what I remember on the news. But for Daddy Bush to say once it was all done with that because there’s rioting, oh yeah, we’re looking into civil rights violations now to get ‘em because you are rioting in the streets and beating an innocent trucker is just BS, in my opinion. Educate me about civil rights violation trials if I am wrong.
I don’t like seeing anyone getting the crap beaten out of them by police. I also don’t like government intrusional BS either. I don’t think civil rights violations prosecutions are intrusional BS, but to say oh, let’s appease the rioting idiots and try ‘em on something else is just un-American and reeks of double jeopardy, in my opinion.
It’s good to see those of you involved in this in whatever way fighting back. I sense the cops involved posting and I sense their lawyers also. Good. More power to you. I hope that everyone reading this has learned from this that you f** with some people that they’ll not back off when you yell back. This just reeks of something horrible though. Personally, I’ve never studied PR, but I personally believe it was bad PR all around by the city and PD. There will now always be a reeking of something bad, even if there wasn’t anything bad, all because the city and PD didn’t do some damage control from the beginning. Why didn’t the powers that be, say, hold a press conference at first and make a blanket statement without fielding questions from reporters and say something along the lines of this is very sad for our community, the Fullerton PD doesn’t condone excessive force and rest assured, we WILL look into it. End of statement. I think a human face behind those words would have been a major asset to the city and maybe have calmed things down from the start. Is that admitting liability? I don’t know. And why couldn’t the city have done the same thing, but switched it around a little?
With all that being said, this all reeks of something terrible. Why offer the family a settlement when you allege no liability on your part? People in the downtown area also seem to know something terrible (which I don’t-let me emphasize that over and over again) and don’t say. I say this because I was talking to a business that’s fairly close to where this all happened (No, it’s not a certain blog admin who told me this), and without telling me anything substantiative, this woman seemed to imply something that made me think I don’t want to know and change the subject. (I DO NOT KNOW ANYTHING. Let me emphasize that.) This is what you are fighting against. People talk and the whispers will never go away.
With all that being said, I want to add something else. This blog is a service to the prevention of governmental BS. Granted, I’ve looked at some things on here kind of skeptically, such as the go home or go to jail video, but (I can see why Kenton Hampton said that. Yes, it was BS to say that, but when you look at the crowd, I’m sure he and the other officers were afraid of something horrible.) that’s me and that’s okay. I really hope to hell that they have documentation for everything said here though and cringe if they don’t. I can guarantee you that without this blog, Chief Hamilton would have never admitted to arresting the wrong guy in the Veth Mam case. I can also guarantee you that Kelly Thomas would have been swept under the rug also when it shouldn’t have been. This is a part of free speech that I hope is never legislated away. I know that certain people who run this blog are going to have THE BIGGEST smear campaign run against them because he/they have bucked the system and said no more. The bullshit will stop here and now. Hell, it wouldn’t shock me if someone mysteriously dies when this is all done with-kind of like the Clinton staffer in Arkansas “committing suicide.” (I’m not advocating anything-just being my paranoid, crazy self.) People know that this will happen even though they fought a good cause.
Thanks for reading my ramblings. I know it’s a long read, but really, I hope that the powers that be read this and think about it. Hell, dialogue with me too. I can always learn.
#6 by EyeNeverSayNo on August 30, 2011
“My thoughts then.. was that it was double jeopardy for the cops.”
Kim, the US Supreme Court’s ‘doctrine of dual sovreignity’ says that, by definition, the laws of two different governments cannot describe the same offense. Thus there was no protection from double jeapordy in the case of the officers involved in the Rodney King beating. As you know, they were first tried and aquited of certain crimes under state law, and later tried and found guilty of different crimes under federal law.

I listened to that interview. This guy’s story is rediculously slim on details. I don’t think he saw anything at all.
#11 by merijoe on August 30, 2011
Im very suspecious of this guy claiming to be a “witness” in defense of the FPD at almost 8 weeks later – he sounds scripted and a “mockingbird” of the trolls on here who also try to defend the FPD by actually blaming the victim for resisting and running
I think the FPD acting under orders of the DA are paying this guy off and are promising him all kinds of favors.
Why would he wait so long before coming forth? he had nothing to fear especially if he had nothing but glowing remarks about the FPD. I hope the defense attorney has already taken this into consideration
#12 by tony on August 30, 2011
THE CORRUPT DA IS GETTING DESPERATE.
#13 by Concerned Texan on August 30, 2011
I agree. I was commenting earlier about their choice of homeless person for a witness. I think it really illustrates that the DA, The FPD and their supporters did not and continue to not see the homeless as real people, only chariactures of real people. I believe that is a major factor in how those officers who beat Kelly Thomas were able to disassociate themselves from what they were doing to him during the time of his “arrest” / beating.
Is there a council meeting today? I would really like to watch it if you could shoot me that link again.

#18 by Fred Alcazar on August 30, 2011
I wonder if this guy has spent any time in Fullerton at all.
Sells jewelry on the street? Where, pray tell? That violates several sections of the FMC. Has he got a business license yet? Honorary membership in the Chamber of Commerce?
Hahahaha!

But, its all that bootlickers like you have to cling to so I guess you have to make the best of it.

#22 by info warrior on August 30, 2011
in observation of this story and the way in which this guy brings his version of the event, I get a feeling of ulterior motives…. in that he is given a huge media forum to announce his business of selling his wares. That in itself could have been a great motivator to fabricate or embellish, (giving him the benefit of the doubt that he was even there on that night), but I feel it’s more than that. One must ask the question of “Why Wait”? If he is indeed on the streets as he claims, then he couldn’t have missed all the evidence of the ongoing battle between the FPD /DA and the citizens of Fullerton over the past 6 weeks. Was it fear? He himself dismisses that idea. Maybe he didn’t like Kelly? no way to tell for certain, and as he stated, “He doesn’t like to get into those types of situations… Maybe that’s why he waited. Because he doesn’t like to get into those types of situations…If that being the case, then again WHY NOW if at all? I fear this is a example of disinformation and slight of hand to muddy the waters down, create dissension and division amongst the population. Maybe even the expertise of the Ackerman and Tony combined with the Union heads understand that they need to supply a “EYE” witness to collaborate the soon to be released video.. My guess is this mans version will all but be a script to go with the (Edited) video if and when it’s released. Be it in court or the media.
Bravo 4 out!
#23 by Wrong Guy on August 30, 2011
ALL POSTS ABOVE, ABSOLUTELY CORRECT!!! These corrupted officials strategically picked another homeless person, with the very lack of hygiene appearance that Kelly Thomas had, in an attempt to show the public they are non-prejudice towards homeless/mentally ill, and insist he is a credible witness. Hey, I just noticed what Chowder posted about this guy being an undercover stooge that’s been spotted an In & Out. Do Tell. Sounds par for the course for these lying corrupt, heartless, gutless, prickless bastards!
#24 by Curious on August 30, 2011
The interview was pathetic. The whole post was pathetic. The “witness” didn’t see a thing and fullertonstories has sunk to a new all time low. Davis Barber should be ashamed of himself for posting such garbage. I normally don’t read Fullerton stories. Just curious who does besides city staff and alike?
Check out this website: http://www.Alexa.com. They rank websites based on traffic, which is based on content, etc.

ocweekly.com has an internet ranking of 4,301

The few businesses that advertise on fullertonstories have probably been lied to about the amount of traffic they get. Either that or it’s free.

Right. Because he wasn’t looking.
Kelly’s head got bashed in all by itself. His windpipe got crushed all by itself. Those Tasers sprang to life and Tasered him all by themselves. That pool of blood Kelly was laying in just appeared all mysterious like, probably from those self-inflicted gashes in his head.
Oh Brother, you guys really scraped the bottom with this clown.

Truth Hurts. Why do you feel the need to put the officers names out there? they have civil rights too and are entitled to due process also.
#42 by ExPat ExLawyer on August 30, 2011
Same reason all other criminal suspects names are out there. Even more reasons exist when those suspects are paid by the taxpayers and accountable to us, at least in theory. It’s called equal justice. It’s close to two months for this “investigation.” Time to file charges and leave it to a jury. That is due process.
Due process does not require we permit the DA-fox unlimited guarding of his house of hens. (Or cock#$%@ers, to be more specific).
PS – I think “Richard” must be former commenter “Allen.” I imagine they have the same issues with English usage.

Can’t wait for the recall! Are any restraining orders or injunctions in place to protect the evidence (what remains that is) so the new officials can try to sort out all the crimes that have happened under the ‘color of law’. Has anyone filed the ‘Freedom of Information’ requests?
#51 by Peaches on August 30, 2011
Don’t hold your breath for responsiveness to any FOIA requests made of the Fullerton City Clerk; she wasn’t very forthcoming when she worked as Brea’s City Clerk…
#52 by Concerned Californian on May 11, 2012
Oh! So Fullerton has some nepotism going on, someone should charge that asshole city clerk with corruption.
So you said she likes to drag her feet right? Well we will see about that after the recall.
If I were her, I wouldn’t hold my breath for a good recommendation when the door hits her on the ass.
If I were writing the recommendation, I would make sure to send her out with one with a blood stain reputation for aiding and abetting killer cops and corrupt staff.

#56 by Wrong Guy on August 30, 2011
As a regular participant in the Saturday Justice Rallies, “Release the Tape!” has been one of the more popular chants. I do believe that it is better to NOT release the tape for the same reasons the DA have been telling the press. I truly believe that if they had released the tape, it would conceivably prolong their Investigation (or Cover-Up) whichever you believe, as more false witnesses for either side would come forth after seeing the tape, and do their best “song and dance”, based only on the fact that they saw the tape. (TU SABES, Manny Ramos?)
#57 by admin on August 30, 2011
I disagree. Release of the video demonstrates that both the cops and the citizens are watched by the same camera and ar responsible for their pubic behavior. How often do we see video on TV of convenience store robberies – long before any preliminary hearings take place, etc.
In any case, witnesses need to be able to demonstrate that they were at the scene and swear to it in a deposition. How many people are willing to lie under oath (with the exception of the FPD, it seems)?
#58 by Kim on August 30, 2011
Good point and I agree that public officials should not be afraid of being recorded, but if this were released before now, the DA’s office probably would have had people in LA at the time of this saying, ‘OH YEAH! I WAS THERE! I WANT TO BE FAMOUS!’ Some can lie well and be believable to a jury and do not give a crap about the consequences of their actions. Then, someone is curious and researches and finds out that they were on a camping trip that day and blows their cover to CNN.
#59 by Through different eyes on August 30, 2011
Isn’t it possible to tell that certain witnesses really were there by checking the city camera, citizen cell phone recordings and the infamous city bus recording?

Hey wrong guy, pull you fat head out of that big butt of yours.
In case your not up on current events, we have entered the information age a long time ago.
You can’t bullshit people anymore, your done.
Society can’t aford all these ball and chain public employees anymore. Especially when the economic ship is sinking.
It’s economic darwinism:
When a bear invades your camp, you don’t have to be faster than the bear, just faster than the slowest camper.
In three years, when the economy really tanks, it’s slow fucks like you, that won’t know how to survive when the checks start bouncing.
By then you will be in a bread line all day with nothing to eat.

I guess the people who had just witnessed it within minutes and have their first hand accounts recorded…. remember the bus video. The people on the bus video had first hand accounts and details that they had just witnessed. This guy show up 8 weeks later and speculates on something he admits he did not really see. Cooked up for sure. All they have to do is release the tape. It will either infuriate the people or exonerate the cops…. I amd guessing the later or it would be released already……. Could it be that it is so graphic and horrendous that the Feds are thinking twice about releasing it? Images of the civil rights movement really got people going 50 years ago.

By the way tu sabes, what were you doing during the death beating aside from having your ‘thumb up your ass’?
#74 by Chriszq on August 30, 2011
They will never be able to hide the Truth that 6 fullerton cops beat a homeless man to death. So many things just cannot justify their actions in any way, even if Kelly was resisting you do NOT hit or use deadly force on someones face when easily the world knows that these 6 over weight cops can just put hand cuffs and just arrest him. This is murder and nothing else. The D.A. better do the right thing because God sees everything.
#75 by AJ on August 30, 2011
Hello beautiful FFFF’ers!
I can tell you right now, FS is not incahoots with the FPD or DA. If they were, there is no way they would go with the story I am about to do for them criticizing both the police and DA’s handling of officer-involved deaths. Thanks.
#76 by admin on August 30, 2011
Thanks, AJ.
I believe Mark’s implication was that FPD hooked up this Fritschie guy with Fullerton Stories and they took his story at face value.
#77 by AJ on August 30, 2011
His assumptions are incorrect. Davis has been around Fullerton for many years and has seen this guy around from time to time. He ran into him at the Farmer’s Market and they started talking about Kelly. That’s how he got his “pooper scooper.” Trust me, we go to the Police and the DA. They don’t come to us.
As far as his decision to put it on the website…it’s provocative. Can’t say I agree or even Davis agrees with what he says. It’s just another witness.
As far as taking it as face value, that’s all that can be done at this point because of the lack of transparency with authorities. So far every witness account in the media has been taken at face value. We have nothing else to go by.
#78 by Through different eyes on August 30, 2011
Where can we expect to read this upcoming story?
#79 by nipsey on August 30, 2011

Maybe they could change the name to Fullerton Fairytales.
#80 by AJ on August 30, 2011
Yes it will be on Fullerton Stories, as I said, they are letting me run a story criticizing police and the DA as I did before for their website regarding the gang injunctions.
#81 by Anonymous on August 30, 2011
I feel that they are not putting enough pressure on FPD regarding “this” incident.. they are looking into policies and procedures “as a whole”
I am feeling upset that there is no media exposure on this murder whatsoever from the national media
How can cops brutally beat a man to death in a city in CA not be national news?
I am wanting more transparency and no thoughts of us against them from the cops etc.. I want the tape
cause of death
injuries
full list of injuries he sustained
but I realize much of this info must be secured for trial..
how has nobody been charged with anything whatsoever other than abusing CA FPD property.. They probably faced fines for any damage Kellys head did to their night sticks
#82 by dixiejon on August 30, 2011
the national media has moved on. during the Danziger bridge trial itself you couldnt find the story. that trial was during the Casey Anthony trial. every day i go online and click the latest story just to keep it up there.

One of the best witnesses is going to be the lady on the bus. What she saw was horrible.She was so frightened that she FORGOT HER PURSE. When does a lady ever leave her purse in public?! The things she said were spontaneous utterances. Was she in shock? Where is she now? And where is the real estate lady with the video camera that disappeared on the side of a police car? Was that Occifer Kenton Hampton giving her his Pep-talk about public videotaping?? Or another officer? Did the anonymous source ever deduce the sixth occifer from the duty roster? Was it a Corporal? Will he or she testify? Is it true that at a certain rank an occifer is not represented by the union, and can be COMPELLED to testify?

#143 by Concerned Texan on August 30, 2011
That was a very good call indeed. I believe I watched part of that video on youtube? I think what is catching my attention the most lately is the difference in the demeanor of those people in the bus video vs. the attitudes of those whom are coming forward now. I find something really unsettling about it. Did you get the feeling that the bus driver is still affected by the incident?

Did he say if he went to any media outlet or IA to show the video immediately after he shot it? And if he did, did they not plaster it on the news? I didn’t find out about it until August 3rd, thanks to a facebook friend sending me that video on youtube.
#154 by 9c1copcar on August 30, 2011
Many years ago while watching the news, they had a segment on, “ask the man/woman on the street” questions. I remember this woman was asked how different issues/events on the other side of the world impacted her life. Her answer was stunning, to say the least. She stated that what happens there has absolutely NO effect on her life at all. So I guess we can all disregard oil prices, war, economic and political strings, etc., as all that is “over there”.
This case is no different. The things that happen in Fullerton don’t just affect Fullerton, they branch out to many cities/counties/states. All it takes are many people like that lady, or those that just want to take the ostrich-way-out, (head in the sand), and think that their world boundaries only lie between work and home This type of thinking and behavior will absolutely ensure that this kind of abuse and criminal activity will continue.
Please do not get the idea I bash women. It just happened to be a woman who answered said question. I like these blogs, as it is a sharing of frustrations, griefs, and activism that will make those in charge realize that some will not just go away.

I’ve heard plenty of this bum’s bs before. He is 100% full-o-shit. He figures some dumb bleeding heart types will give him something for free. I hope he asks me for money so I can kick his lazy worthless begger ass.

We must get rid of Police State. A mentally challenged man gets tasered and kicked by this cop for absolutely. You will find so much similarities between FFFF report and Thomas Kelly. Watch this

Unless there are some direct benefits, cops and politicans never like video camera.

Some of these lying smelly bums need to drop dead. Who does he think he is? Fuck this guy he sounds like he could work if he wanted to lazy sack of shit. Justice for Kelly

“lazy sack of shit.”
Hmm. Sounds like he has all the qualifications to be the FPD public information officer. Run and tell your buddy Goodstink that he may have competition soon.

Of course this “new” witness is going to extol the virtues of the FPD, he could very well be found “resisting” arrest someday and end up beaten to death himself.

The LAPD is supposed to have pensioned Ofc Cincinelli off with a 70% pension. ‘If’ he was still getting the LAPD pension; in addition to his FPD salary, which itself includes a second pension, he must be about the highest paid street officer on the FPD, or any other Dept. Even if he cashed out LAPD’s pension in lieu of regular payments; he should still be quite well off, because in addition to his FPD salary, he would also be getting the interest, dividends and capital gains from the investments from the pension cash out. When he was hired by the FPD he must have been laughing … all the way to the bank.

I would love for Davis Barber to explain how he met Fritschie at the Fullerton Market one night and just happened to strike up a conversation about Kelly Thomas.

Hey since you guys like to rerun your stories like used condoms. How about reruning that eye witness interview with Thompson and Bushala talking to the guy who saw “that black beast” Kenton Hampton. pounding on Kelly Thomas? Oh yeah that did not happen, or maybe the CIA used mind control to not let us see that on the tape?
#173 by The Fullerton Harpoon on May 10, 2012
Um, I think I did see Kenton Hampton pounding on Kelly.
I also saw him beating the shit out of Veth Mam. Then he lied about it under oath.
Yeah, what a guy.

Speaking of used condoms: McKinley; Sellers; Hamilton; Hughes.
Er, isn’t it time to get a new rubber?

The problem we have are rogue groups of sadist, hired out of the military, trained killers that acquired a taste for blood shed, roaming around the streets at night looking for some adrenaline rushes, finding sexual gratification in Killing easy prey, like Kelly Thomas.

I seem to remember a big broohawa from McKinley etc back in August/September about how they were still waiting for the autopsy and couldnt determine how Kelly died-in fact didn’t he say that in his CNN interview?
At the hearing the Pathologist was crossed and specifically asked when she did her autopsy-which she replied July 11th and had her complete determination not long after that-I believe it was no longer than a few days. I dont know when tox screens were done but they usually don’t wait too long for those as they dont want anything to dissapate.
Wonder if McKinley and Doctah Jones were privy to this info way back when.

The history of Corruption in OC is very very bad.

Mc Satan was on Rustys OC Human Relations Cover up Committee.
Syria headed the UNs Human Rights Committee, now they are bombing with aircraft, and using very large weapons against their very very many of their own Citizens.

“His assumptions are incorrect. Davis has been around Fullerton for many years and has seen this guy around from time to time. He ran into him at the Farmer’s Market and they started talking about Kelly. That’s how he got his “pooper scooper.” Trust me, we go to the Police and the DA. They don’t come to us.
As far as his decision to put it on the website…it’s provocative. Can’t say I agree or even Davis agrees with what he says. It’s just another witness.
As far as taking it as face value, that’s all that can be done at this point because of the lack of transparency with authorities. So far every witness account in the media has been taken at face value. We have nothing else to go by.”
In regards to this:

And Fritschie quote was
“I didn’t see any beating. I think they’ve overblown the situation.”
But they sure didn’t have to print all that garbage if they didn’t want to.

This is why even birds find the Register revolting if they find that their cages have been lined with the Orange County Register.
I have personally experienced an awakening this week as to take what the newspaper reporters have to say with a big grain of salt… and an even bigger shot of tequila!
They spend little or no real time in court, and instead look around for remarkable quotes from the families and their supporters. Not big on substance.
