DOCUMENT FROM WWW.ROB-FILES.COM EDITED June 16, 2010 … URL CHANGED TO WWW.ROB-FILES.COM (INDEX PAGE) THIS IS THE ORIGINAL INDEX PAGE … OWNER Robert O. Butner Jr. – THIS IS A DOCUMENT FROM THAT INDEX PAGE. EDITED November 9, 2010 JULY 19, 2008 (ORIGINAL) IMPORTANT NOTE: THE SATELLITE SYSTEM DESIGN IS NOT NECESSARILY OWNED BY THESE ‘ONE-PERCENTER’ ORGANIZATIONS … HOWEVER THROUGH THE MULTI BILLION DOLLAR MARKET’S THAT THESE ORGANIZATIONS ARE AFFILIATED OR INTERTWINED WITH. IT WAS ALSO SET-UP ON MY FAMILY. November 9, 2010 … Clarification comment: The Satellite design that was set-up on my family was not intended for me to get through. By the grace of God, I did … What was I suppose to do (past and current); turn my head to this sick coward design? The nature of this electronics design does not allow you … no matter how hard you try … it is that psychopathic cowardly stupid. IT AFFECTS YOUR FAMILY AND THE QUALITY OF THEIR ENTIRE LIFE. HOWEVER, CURRENTLY TODAY, I WOULD STILL HELP THEIR CHILDREN and THEIR FAMILY’S. THE LAST THING I WOULD DO IS ALLOW MY REPRESENTATION OR SUPPORT OF THE PEOPLE THAT OPERATE THIS CRAP. FOLLOWING ARTICLES HAVE BEEN RETAINED TO SHOW THE CRIMINAL MENTALITY and CONFIRMATIONS. RECENTLY, I RECEIVED SOME VERY INTERESTING MAIL FROM THE REGAS FAMILY, AMONG OTHER HA. THIS FAMILY (TROY REGAS AND ASSOCIATES) ARE PART OF THE MAIN HIERARCHY OF THE HELLS ANGELS IN THE UNITED STATES AND ABROAD, IN ADDITION TO DAVID BURGESS AND OTHER ASSOCIATES. MY RESPONSE TO MS. REGAS WILL SUFFICES IN EXPLAINING THE CONTEXT OF HER MAIL. BY THE WAY, AGAIN AND AGAIN, PER THIS REPORT, THERE IS NO DENIAL OF THE ELECTRONIC SURVEILLANCE ABUSE – (IT HAS BEEN PROVEN SO MANY TIMES THAT PURE SIMPLE VERIFICATION REMAIN, REGARDLESS IF CONTRACTED OR NOT). THE CONTINUED MAILS FROM THESE PEOPLE ALSO SERVES PURPOSE WHICH SPEAKS FOR ITSELF OF JUST HOW ACCURATE THIS WEB SITE REPORT IS. OTHERWISE, THERE OBVIOUSLY WOULD BE NO REASON FOR THESE UNSOLICITED COMMUNICATIONS. I HAVE NEVER RECEIVED ANY VIABLE COMMUNICATION FROM THE HELLS ANGELS (OR REPRESENTATIVES) REGARDING THIS REPORT AT ALL; OTHER THAN THIS TYPE DESPERATE SIDE-TRACKING B.S. I HAVE ALWAYS ENCOURAGED ALL PROVEN CORRECTIONS AND CLARIFICATIONS AND HAVE WORKED HONORABLY WITH PEOPLE OF SINCERE INTENT. ALSO, IT IS NEVER TOO LATE FOR ASSISTANCE WHICH COULD IMPROVE STATUS FOR ANYBODY. I HAVE RECEIVED A FEW MINOR CORRECTIONS FROM THE HA WHICH WERE HONORED, HOWEVER, REPEAT AND VERY IMPORTANT; I HAVE RECEIVED VERY LITTLE VIABLE OR GOOD INTENT COMMUNICATION FROM THE HELLS ANGELS OTHER THAN THE TYPICAL SIDE-TRACKING PER ABOVE. OTHERWISE, THIS REPORT IS VERY ACCURATE (WITH SOME SPECULATION ONLY IN THE AREA OF POSSIBLE ASSOCIATIONS THAT I BELIEVE ARE CONNECTED WITH THEM). IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THESE HIERARCHY FAMILIES WITHIN THE HELLS ANGELS HAVE VARIOUS LAND INVESTMENTS INCLUDING BROTHELS WITH EXTREMELY YOUNG PROSTITUTION. Comment in reply to Ms. Regas: It is not necessary for me to meet Mr. Burgess. Past investigations, history, and email such as yours of 5-21-07 speak for itself. Also, as I indicated yesterday, you just brought additional attention on yourselves. The email is erroneous and again; I do not know Ms. Tonya Kane and have never met her in person, however, Mr. Burgess I have seen. Tonya Kane IS YOURS regardless of past association or not. Do not inappropriately put her on my side. However, some amount of voluntary testimony from her has lent considerable accuracy and assistance. I appreciate this and have had a lot of the same in general from others as you know. Ms. Regas: "We are ALL trying to pull our lives together, keep it together, etc. Ms. Kane is not elite in that battle". Comment in reply to Ms. Regas: Now you are trying to pull your lives together? DAMN, WHAT A SHAME! – YOU SHOULD TRY THE ILLEGAL ELECTRONIC DESIGN ON YOUR FAMILY SUCH AS WE HAVE, IN CONTRAST. And YES, IT HAS BEEN CONFIRMED to YOUR ASSOCIATION also, as you know. And now additional attention because of your big worded diverting emails? Are you people out of your minds completely? Sincerely, no insult intended; who in the hell do you THINK you are. Yes I agree there are things that happen to you and things that happen because of you. Believe me; you have only experienced the beginning. YOU DO NOT INSTIGATE TERRORIST ELECTRONICS ON ANYBODY, and just a reminder; you're MAILS ARE of VIRUS INTENT also. DO NOT PROCEED – ATTENTIONS ON YOU – (THE HELLS ANGELS IN GENERAL) PER THIS WEB SITE REPORT ARE GREAT ENOUGH. I do not have time to play tit-tat with you over the internet either. However, keep on the web site rob-files.com. All communications are being monitored. MORE COMMUNICATIONS RECEIVED JUNE 11th, 07 (BELOW) MORE HELLS ANGELS MAIL RECEIVED - JUNE 11th, 2007 TO: MR. THOMAS GREEN (WASHOE, COUNTY NEVADA DETECTIVE) JUST FOR THE RECORD AND THE PEOPLES RIGHT: Here is another set of mail just for the RECORD - "I PICKED UP FROM YESTERDAY". THEY KEEP UP THIS STANDARD HA NONSENSE - 'NOT EVEN COMMON SENSE'. QUOTE FROM HA: SEVERAL MAILS "EDITED FOR INTERNET", HOWEVER THE CONTENTS WERE DESPERATE ATTEMPTS AT SOLICITING EMOTIONS. EVEN FROM THE HIERARCHY, THERE CONTINUES TO BE NO SUBSTANTIAL CONTENT - ADDITIONAL CORRECTIONS OR CLARIFICATIONS TO THIS REPORT. IT IS APPARENT THAT THEY HAVE BEEN PREVIOUSLY MADE. MOST ALL CONTENTS OF THIS REPORT ARE OBVIOUSLY CORRECT EXCEPT AGAIN: SOME SPECULATION 'ONLY' IN THE AREA OF POSSIBLE ASSOCIATIONS THAT I BELIEVE ARE CONNECTED WITH THEM. (X RATED AND/OR SATANIC PICTURES WITH VIRUS INTENT AND THREATS ACCOMPANIED THE MAILS – ALSO, AS IN PAST) LATELY, THIS HAS BEEN TYPICAL AND IS RIDICULES! THEY ALL SEEM TO HAVE THE SAME THINKING WHICH NEVER DOES THEM GOOD. AND THEN WHEN CALLED ON THEIR BLUNDER, THE SAME SICKENING 'BACKING-OUT' CONTINUES. (AS IF, "GOSH DAMN, we have no idea what's going on here”)! THIS IS TYPICAL! If there was no substantiation to my web site report, they obviously would not be pulling on my families emotions with these TYPICAL tactics. (WE HAVE HAD ENOUGH ON BEHALF OF THE PEOPLE). Quote from Mr. Green 6-10-07: Mr. Butner- I have no idea what it is you want. If you are alleging a crime, contact whatever jurisdiction you live in. (COMMENT: I HAVE CONTACTED THEM AS YOU KNOW). (COMMENT TO THE READER: Also, please look at other record concerning this detective on this report) I have not heard from Treee in a long while, and that pleases me. Please remove me from this chain of lunacy. Tom Green FROM ME: OH YEAH TOM, YOU KNOW VERY WELL - WHAT the REAL ISSUES ARE AND THE HELLS ANGELS DO ALSO - IT IS VERY SIMPLY THE CONTENTS OF MY REPORT WWW.ROB-FILES.COM. I get tired of this "chain of lunacy" also but a lot of the primary HA people are obviously in your jurisdiction and that is why you get these mails. My family, indicative of many, has been through a lot with illegal electronics per the report. I promise you that when this comes down, the record will be perfectly clear. You also know the extent of importance, accurate record, publications and attention to my report www.rob-profile.com. And the Federal/Government contacts that I have been involved with. Most everybody can read and this is common knowledge. I appreciate your response to me; however, in the interim, if this continues - FROM YOUR JURISDICTION, YOU WILL BE COPIED - PLUS ANYTHING ELSE THAT SHOULD HAPPEN. Bob Butner June 11th, 2007 June 15th, 2007 NO SOONER THAN I ENTER THE ABOVE ON THIS REPORT, I RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING ADDITIONAL THREAT FROM THE SAME HA GROUP - (Which was copied to various HA people in addition to Detective Green above). Quote: "Bad news, your porno is no longer making it through Lotus Notes..." (COMMENT: PLEASE NOTICE THE TYPICAL UNTRUE DIVERSION AS IF I AM THE PERSON SENDING ATTACHMENTS AND/OR THE PERPETRATOR IN THIS INSANITY). "Leave us all alone. I asked you kindly once, now I am telling you." (COMMENT: A THREAT - AS IF I STARTED THIS AND I AM BOTHERING THESE GREAT BIG PEOPLE - ALL BY MYSELF). "We have children and lives to live." (COMMENT: WHAT DO THEY THINK WE HAVE? AND THEY INSTIGATE OR CONTRACT ELECTRONICS? THEY SOUND INNOCENT DON'T THEY)? ANYBODY, ESPECIALLY A LARGE ORGANIZATION THAT RESPONDS TO THIS WEB SITE REPORT SUCH AS YOUR PEOPLE HAVE, SPEAKS FOR ITSELF. I AM SURE EVERYBODY NOT ONLY IS SHAKING IN THEIR BOOTS AT THIS POINT, BUT CAN ALSO SEE THE REAL ISSUES. - IT DOES NOT TAKE A CRIMINOLOGIST. THIS ORGANIZATION IS REAL INTELLIGENT, EMPATHETIC AND BRAVE AREN'T THEY? I GUESS THEY SOUND A LITTLE LIKE HITLER RESPONDING TO A JEWISH PLEA! A COPY OF MY MAIL RESPONSE: As always I appreciate intelligent mail, however, yours is embarrassing. It gives everybody an opportunity to see just how the HA works. By allowing immature women members, like yourself, to represent them through anger. The men sure as hell have no more substantial communication or corrections - (TO THE REAL ISSUES). This is how concerned and guilty people work in these stages of awareness and desperation. THEY DO NOT ADDRESS THE REAL ISSUES (IN THIS CASE – HIGH SECURITY ELECTRONICS ABUSE). You are not only libeling yourselves additionally but it is no wonder you and your people are STUCK behind such cowardly organizational electronics. Allowing you as representative speaks for itself. IN OTHER WORDS, NOT ADDRESSING THE REAL ISSUES AND WALKING AROUND THEM WHICH IS AN ADMISSION OF GUILT AND/OR WORRY. If somebody accused me of something, I would address the issue UNLESS I was guilty. I am embarrassed and would not bother to respond except you have everything reversed – “from the real topics of my web site report” – Again, normal for people caught, desperate and avoidance. SOLICITING OF EMOTIONS IS SUBSTITUTED – WHICH HAS BEEN VERY COMMON AND IS ALSO EXACTLY HOW YOUR REPRESENTATIVES OPERATE THE ELECTRONICS PER THIS REPORT – (MISERABLE STUFF AND CONDUCIVE OF THE PERSONALITY). Also, you have copied all of your great brave men whom have put you at the wheel. They have no corrections to this report other than what as already been made; so they allow you to write the ridicules mails – (Kind of a last resort – AVOID THE REAL ISSUES AND SOLICIT RESPONSE). You should have thought of your lives – considerable time before screwing up others. OH yeah, you people are good at dishing it out but look at you now! With awareness and publication, sure you are now witnessing some of the unfortunate dilemmas such as my family went through already. We have children also. Did you people think about us? How does the awareness feel? YOU WILL RECEIVE MORE ATTENTION ALSO – until the abuse is properly handled (per this report – THE REAL ISSUES). KEEP A STRONG EYE ON THE WEB SITE REPORT AS USUAL! IRONICALLY, THE DAY BEFORE, WAS THE LARGEST STATISTICS GIVEN THIS REPORT IN HISTORY. WHAT IN GOD'S NAME HAS TO BE DONE? NOT SURPRISINGLY, THIS WEB SITE REPORT HAS BEEN SO INCREDIBLY SUCCESSFUL, THAT THESE MAILS, INCLUDING VIRUS AND SPY WARE, HAVE CONTINUED FROM THE HELLS ANGELS TO A GREAT EXTENT. THE MAIL HAS ONLY BEEN SUCCESSFUL IN POINTING OUT THE REAL ISSUES, PER THIS REPORT, AS EXPECTED - OTHERWISE, THE ATTEMPT AT EMOTIONS AND CHANCES OF VIRUS EFFECT ARE SUBSTANTIAL. BLOCKING AND/OR INTERMEDIATE RECEPTION OF ALL SUCH MAIL IS IN PROCESS. TIMELY PER ABOVE - HELLS ANGELS ARRESTED IN WYO. JULY 26th, 2007 Hells Angels members arrested during traffic stop Posted: Tuesday, Jul 31st, 2007 Evanston – Wyoming Highway Patrol troopers continue to follow up additional leads in their investigation of two members of the Hells Angels that have been arrested and charged with drug possession. The arrests were made during a traffic stop conducted near the Utah/Wyoming State Line on Interstate 80, July 24. The traffic stop was made shortly after 10 a.m. on eastbound Interstate 80 about three miles east of Evanston when a trooper noticed the trailer being pulled by a white 1999 Freightliner motor home was displaying an expired Wyoming registration tag. During the traffic stop a user amount of marijuana was found in the possession of the driver, 37 year-old Shayne D. Waldron who is from Sun Valley, Nevada. A passenger in the motor home was also arrested, 54-year-old DAVID W. BURGESS from Sparks, Nevada. Both individuals are members of the Nevada Chapter of the HELLS ANGELS M. C. Troopers obtained a search warrant for the motor home and during a subsequent search they discovered approximately 14.9 grams of COCAINE. Waldron is being held on $5,000 dollars bond on a misdemeanor charge of possession of a controlled substance. BURGESS is being held on a felony charge of possession of a controlled substance and bond has been set at $55,000. Waldron and Burgess were driving the Freightliner motor home, known as the “War Wagon,” at the 2007 Hells Angels USA Run which is being held in Eureka Springs, Arkansas, from July 25 - 29, 2007. Hells Angels chapters from across the United States are expected to attend this meeting. IT IS KNOWN THAT THE HELLS ANGELS OPERATE in 23 STATES, 25 FOREIGN COUNTRIES and have A MINIMUM 3,500 member’s world wide. THIS DOES NOT ACCOUNT FOR THE CONNECTIONS THAT DO NOT RESEMBLE BIKER ATTIRE WHAT SO EVER. They are RECOGNIZED AS ORGANIZED CRIME by law enforcement agencies and courts throughout the United States. The FBI estimates the Hells Angels takes in A MINIMUM $1 BILLION A YEAR WORLDWIDE from drug trafficking. NOVEMBER 21, 2007 - POSTING DATE: Bob Butner WWW.ROB-FILES.COM Formally www.rob-profile.com robfile@sbcglobal.net EDITING NOVEMBER 2007: - FBI agents spent several hours Thursday OCTOBER 25, 2007 searching the home of Hells Angels leader and brothel owner David Burgess on Mayberry Drive in southwest Reno for several hours Thursday but declined to say what they found. The agents and Reno police, many with assault rifles and wearing helmets and bullet- proof vests, blocked traffic from Mayberry onto Sherwood Place. A Humvee blocked the entrance to the driveway of the home. "We are here executing a search warrant and that's really all we can say," said Bill Woerner, FBI Assistant Special Agent in Charge. "It was a joint operation between the FBI and the Reno Police Department." David Staretz, chief legal counsel for the FBI in Las Vegas, would only confirm the search was conducted in Reno. Storey County sheriff's officials said they don't believe the FBI searched the Old Bridge Ranch brothel in Mustang that Burgess owns. Burgess faces trial on Dec. 3 in Uinta County, Wyo., for a felony charge for possessing a controlling substance. He was arrested July 26 by Wyoming state troopers after they pulled over his motor home, called the "War Wagon," on Interstate 80, three miles east of Evanston. The motor home was pulling a trailer with an expired Wyoming license. Burgess told police he was on his way to the 2007 Hells Angeles USA Run in Eureka Springs, Ark. Troopers arrested Burgess on suspicion of possession of 14.9 grams of cocaine. He was released on $55,000 bond. Shayne Waldron of Sun Valley was driving the motor home and was arrested on suspicion of possessing a misdemeanor amount of marijuana. Pretrial motions in the Burgess case are set for Tuesday before Uinta County District Court Judge Dennis Sanderson. Among them is Burgess' request for the county attorney staff to return documents, according to the court clerk. In December 2003, the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms searched the Hells Angels clubhouse in Sparks and seized property during a five-state crackdown on the gang. The clubhouse, near McCarran Boulevard and Sullivan Lane, had been owned by Joe Conforte, the former owner of the Mustang Ranch brothel now a fugitive in Brazil. Burgess is a nephew of Conforte. After that search, Waldron and three other Hells Angels filed a federal lawsuit against Washoe County and the sheriff's office, claiming their constitutional rights were violated in the search. Waldron was arrested at the clubhouse on suspicion of possessing a stolen gun during the search. RENO, Nev. -- FBI agents remain mum on why they raided the Reno home of brothel owner and Hells Angels leader David Burgess. "We are here executing a search warrant and that's really all we can say," Bill Woerner, FBI assistant special agent in charge, told the Reno Gazette-Journal. Agents, many carrying assault rifles and wearing bullet-proof vests, also declined to say what they found during the search of the home Thursday. Burgess, owner of the Old Bridge Ranch brothel in Mustang just east of Reno, awaits trial Dec. 3 in Wyoming after his July 26 arrest there on a felony charge of possessing cocaine. He was arrested after troopers pulled over his motor home, called the "War Wagon," on Interstate 80. He told troopers he was on his way to the 2007 Hells Angels USA Run in Eureka Springs, Ark., at the time. In 2003, federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives agents raided the Hells Angels clubhouse in Sparks as part of a five-state crackdown on the gang. The clubhouse had been owned by Joe Conforte, the former owner of the Mustang Ranch brothel east of Reno and now a fugitive in Brazil. Burgess is the nephew of Sally Conforte, the late wife of Joe Conforte. David Staretz, chief legal counsel for the FBI in Las Vegas, would only confirm the latest search was conducted in Reno. "It was a joint operation between the FBI and the Reno Police Department," Woerner said. Traffic was blocked outside Burgess' Mayberry Drive home in southwest Reno during the search, which lasted several hours. A Humvee blocked the entrance to the home's driveway. NOVEMBER, 2007 - POSTING DATE: TO THE READER - Please Note the following ARTICLE with this COMMENT: A PRIMARY PLAYER NAMED WITHIN THIS WEB SITE REPORT - MAJOR HELLS ANGELS PRESIDENT DAVID BURGESS NEVER DENIED THE SATELLITE ELECTRONIC DESIGN PER THIS REPORT EITHER, However, he did have other non related corrections – (not a coincidence). As referenced all along, there is only ONE TYPE, Sociopath, Criminal Derelict personality that could be associated or interconnected with the electronic abuse per this report.

NOVEMBER 21, 2007 - POSTING DATE: Nevada: - Brothel owner David Burgess has been indicted by a federal grand jury in Wyoming on charges of possessing and transporting CHILD PORNOGRAPHY. FBI Supervisory Agency Mike West in Reno says Burgess, owner of the Old Bridge Ranch in Mustang and a leader in the Hells Angels motorcycle gang, was indicted on the two counts Nov. 13, 2007. West says Burgess appeared before a federal magistrate in Reno on Friday, and was released with conditions. He is to appear before a judge in Cheyenne, Wyoming on Nov. 27. Agents and Reno police raided Burgess' Reno home late last month. West said that search was related to the recent charges. He declined details and said the investigation is ongoing. Burgess also faces trial in Wyoming from his arrest there July 26 on felony charges of possessing cocaine. Bob Butner www.rob-files.com Formally www.rob-profile.com November 25, 2007 POSTING DATE --------------- ------------- ------------------ ------------------- ----------------- --------- January 2, 2008 POSTING DATE: FROM: www.rob-files.com Formally rob-profile.com POSTED January 2, 2008 CHEYENNE, Wyo. - Federal prosecutor wants Nevada man to pay for his own lawyer A federal prosecutor has asked a judge to review whether the owner of a Nevada brothel who's charged with possessing and transporting child pornography meets the financial requirements to be represented by a federal public defender. David Burgess, 55 is charged with possession and interstate transportation of child pornography. Court records state that he faces up to 30 years in prison if convicted of both counts. The Wyoming Highway Patrol arrested Burgess in July. According to a statement from the patrol, a trooper stopped a Freightliner motor home known as the "War Wagon" in which Burgess was a passenger. The patrol reported that the trooper made the stop just east of Evanston because the motor home was pulling a trailer with an expired registration tag. According to the patrol statement, both the driver and Burgess were members of the Hells Angels motorcycle gang. Both men told police they were traveling to the 2007 Hells Angels USA Run in Eureka Springs, Ark. Court records said officers found 14.9 grams of cocaine in the motor home. Jim Anderson, assistant U.S. attorney, said in court last month that in addition to drugs, a search of a laptop computer found in the motor home determined it was "CHOCK FULL" of child pornography. A federal grand jury indicted Burgess last month on the child pornography charges and he was arrested in Nevada. A magistrate in Nevada appointed the federal public defender's office to represent him. Burgess pleaded not guilty to both counts last month at a hearing before U.S. Magistrate William C. Beaman in Cheyenne. Prosecutor Anderson had urged Beaman to jail Burgess pending his scheduled Feb. 4 trial. He said Burgess is a leader of the Nevada chapter of the Hells Angels motorcycle gang, has no ties to Wyoming and is operating a brothel. "It's a legal occupation, but I would characterize it as an unsavory occupation," Anderson said of Burgess' ownership of the Old Bridge Ranch, east of Reno, Nev. Beaman allowed Burgess to remain free pending trial. At last month's court hearing, Anderson also questioned how Burgess qualified for representation from the federal public defender's office. "It looks to me like the defendant's got a net worth of several million dollars," Anderson said. Beaman said the prosecution could file a petition questioning Burgess' representation. Anderson on Wednesday filed a motion asking U.S. Judge Alan B. Johnson to review the Nevada magistrate's determination that Burgess qualified for the services of the federal public defender's office. Anderson wrote that Burgess told a pretrial services officer in Nevada that he owns a business, a residence and other property. Anderson said it appears that Burgess has the means to retain his own private lawyer. Anderson also asked Johnson to decide whether it would be appropriate to require Burgess to repay the public defender's office for its work on his case so far. James Barrett, an assistant federal public defender, represented Burgess at last month's court hearing. An attempt to reach Barrett on Friday was unsuccessful. BEN NEARY casperstartribune.net POSTED March 7, 2008: March 4, 2008 POSTING: Wyoming - A lawyer for a Nevada brothel owner facing federal child pornography charges argued Monday that Wyoming police violated his constitutional rights when they seized a laptop computer and two hard drives during a traffic stop last summer. David Burgess, 55, has asked a federal judge to SUPPRESS evidence taken from the computer equipment. His lawyer said the equipment was beyond the scope of a search warrant obtained by Wyoming police, who were investigating the Hells Angels motorcycle gang leader for drug trafficking. Burgess -- the owner of the Old Bridge Ranch, a legal brothel east of Reno, Nev. -- was arrested on drug charges by the Wyoming Highway Patrol last July during a traffic stop in western Wyoming. His motor home had been pulled over because the vehicle's trailer had an expired license plate, police said. On Monday, lawyers argued over whether the police officers' search for evidence of drugs justified their seizure of a laptop computer and two hard drives from the motor home. A state investigator mining the computer equipment for evidence of drug trafficking allegedly found images of child pornography, leading to charges of possessing and transporting child pornography against Burgess. Burgess has pleaded not guilty. State drug charges were filed against him were later dismissed. He declined to comment after Monday's hearing. Jim Barrett, assistant federal public defender, said the search warrant for the motor home was overly broad. It listed "computer records," but did not specify a computer or hard drives. He said there's no excuse for "throwing a warrant at somebody with the word 'records.’ "When you're looking at a computer or hard drive, you're not looking at anything but a machine," Barrett said. "If you're looking for records contained on that item, you get a warrant to search that item." Special Agent Russ Schmitt, with the Wyoming Division of Criminal Investigation, testified that officers often confiscate computers during drug investigations. He said they're common tools for storing potential evidence, such as photos, drug recipes or contact lists. Schmitt said he was called in on the day of the Burgess stop to help write the request for search warrant. He said he was not specifically seeking computer equipment, but had used a search warrant form that listed "computer records." Assistant U.S. Attorney Jim Anderson said the officers had reason to believe the computers contained records related to drug trafficking. "Where do we keep the records of our lives? Just as Agent Schmitt testified, on our computers," Anderson said. U.S. Judge Alan B. Johnson didn't rule Monday on the suppression motion. Johnson rescheduled a pending trial in the case for April 14, 2008. POSTED April 16, 2008: BY: N/A CHEYENNE, Wyo. - Trial begins for Nevada brothel owner facing child porn charges Jury selection has begun in the trial of a Nevada brothel owner charged with possessing and transporting child pornography across state lines. The Wyoming Highway Patrol arrested 55-year-old David Burgess on drug charges last summer when the motor home he was traveling in was stopped near Evanston. Prosecutors say investigators found images of child pornography on computer equipment confiscated from the vehicle. Last week, a federal judge denied Burgess' motion to suppress evidence taken from the computer equipment. Burgess had argued that the computer equipment was beyond the scope of a search warrant obtained by Wyoming police. Burgess owns the Old Bridge Ranch, a legal brothel east of Reno, Nev., and is a leader in the Hells Angels motorcycle gang. He has pleaded not guilty. POSTED April 19, 2008: WY - CHEYENNE -- David Burgess, a Nevada brothel owner and Hells Angels member known for his love of photography, WAS CONVICTED Friday of possessing and transporting child pornography. Jurors deliberated less than four hours after closing arguments in the weeklong federal trial of Burgess, a charter member of a Nevada chapter of the Hells Angels and owner of the Old Bridge Ranch, a legal brothel near Reno, Nev. Burgess, 55, had pleaded not guilty to the two charges. When the verdict was read, he looked solemnly back at his friends and family members in the courtroom, many of them weeping. Burgess' bond was revoked, and he was handcuffed and taken into custody by U.S. marshals. Burgess faces from five to 30 years in prison, up to a $500,000 fine, and from five years to life of supervision after his release. Friends and family members testified during the trial that Burgess was a proficient digital photographer, always snapping photos on motorcycle runs or of his neighbor's garden. But prosecutors said investigators found more sinister images on two hard drives that were seized from Burgess' motor home last July during a traffic stop in western Wyoming. The hard drives contained a vast collection of child pornography images, well- organized and carefully labeled, prosecutors said. James Barrett, the assistant federal public defender representing Burgess, said the convictions will be appealed. "I think Mr. Burgess was disappointed, and it's obvious that his family and friends and supporters were disappointed," Barrett said outside the courtroom. Barrett said the appeal will be at least partly based on U.S. District Judge Alan B. Johnson's ruling last week to allow evidence taken from the computer equipment to be used in the trial. Burgess had attempted to suppress any evidence taken from the hard drives, arguing that the equipment was beyond the scope of a search warrant obtained by Wyoming police. Johnson ruled that the officers had probable cause to take the equipment and that investigators acted properly in the way they handled the case. Burgess told police he was on his way to the 2007 Hells Angels USA Run in Eureka Springs, Ark., when he was stopped in western Wyoming in July because of an expired license plate. During the stop, Burgess was arrested on drug charges when officers found substances believed to be marijuana and cocaine in the vehicle, police said. State drug charges stemming from the traffic stop were later dismissed. Officers have testified that they confiscated the computer equipment from Burgess' Freightliner motor home because they believed it could contain evidence related to drug trafficking. "We know this item contains not only tens of thousands of images child pornography, it also contains thousands of documents related to the defendant, David Burgess," Assistant U.S. Attorney James Anderson said as he held up the hard drive during closing arguments. The defense had argued that prosecutors presented no evidence proving that Burgess downloaded the images or was aware of their presence on the hard drives. Barrett said during the trial that Burgess' home, computers and cameras were always open and freely accessible for his friends to use. "What you have here is a whole bunch of data and images and absolutely no idea what computer they were downloaded from, when they were loaded, or by whom," Barrett told jurors.
