BACKGROUND

I. For the record, Gardenia C. Hung has already reported this unfair and unjust incident to Rev. Herb Essig and the Friends at St. Pius X Catholic Church, since this problem took place in public, on July 26, 2006, just across from St. Pius X Church where the Catholic nuns live.

I have asked for Community Support to report how the Lombard Police Department has unfairly arrested me for wrongful charges and alleged that I have committed criminal assault, obstructed a police officer, and resisted arrest on July 26, 2006 . During that afternoon, I had been training for employment at the Illinois Employment and Training Center located at the Eastgate Shopping Center in Lombard . Around 4PM , three (3) young women walked into the bathroom while I was leaving and after I left, called the Lombard Police Department on their cellular telephone to report a stolen cellular telephone. The names of the three young women from Glen Ellyn are Jamila Hanif, Khadija Hanif, and Javeria Hanif, residents at 50 Briar Street #101 , Glen Ellyn , Illinois 60137 , who talked to Lombard Policewoman Pamela Lessner, Badge No. 710, who was driving the Lombard Community Service Truck. I have pleaded NOT GUILTY to all charges. Afterwards, Lombard Policeman David Thiede, Badge No. 24, alleged that I assaulted him with a Red Burberry umbrella, resisted a peace officer, and obstructed a peacer officer on the front lawn of St. Pius X Catholic Chuch, located at the corner of Westmore-Meyers Road and Madison Street , in the Village of Lombard , Du Page County, Illinois, United States of America. In spite of evidence presented on January 30, 2007 Judge Thomas Riggs sentenced me to thirty (30) hours of community service and additional court fines and costs in the amount of $604, six hundred and four dollars. This legal matter has been under case hearing and review in the 18th Judicial Circuit Court, Room 4005, before Judge Jane Hird Mitton, on Fridays, May 16, 2005, at 9H30 a.m. and was continued for Monday, May 19, 2006 , at 9H30 a.m. to verify 30 hours of Community Service performed by Gardenia C. Hung at St. Pius X Catholic Church in the Village of Lombard during 2007-2008. For the record, Gardenia C. Hung has appeared before Judge Thomas Riggs, Judge Cary B. Pierce, as well as before Judge McKillip on September 29, 2006, 8H30, in Room 4001 at the DuPage County Judicial Center , 505 North County Farm Road , Wheaton IL 60187 .

Gardenia C. Hung was walking peacefully home from the Illinois Employment and Training Center at 837 S. Westmore-Meyers Road, Lombard, IL 60148, Telephone (630) 495-4345, next to the Illinois Secretary of State, Jesse White Vehicle License Facility, at the Eastgate Shopping Center in Lombard when Lombard Policewoman Pam, Badge No. 710, yelled out from the white Community Police truck that I had stolen an East Indian woman's cellular telephone at the I.E.T.C. I stopped to answer her "NO" at the corner of Adams St. and Westmore-Meyers Road in Lombard and continued walking home toward St. Pius X Church. When arrived to the front lawn of St. Pius X Church, Lombard Policeman Thiede, Benedicsen, Virene, Schrepferman and Pam, all got out of their Lombard police cars to arrest me and drop all the contents of my handbags on the green lawn, along with my yellow knapsack and my red Burberry umbrella.

During the False Arrest/Detention with Wrongful Charges, Gardenia C. Hung received visible scratches on her right hand wrist, for the record. Both of her arms were twisted and wrenched by Lombard Policeman Thiede who handcuffed her without due reasons. In addition, Lombard Policeman Thiede forcefully removed a Silver Bracelet with a Christian Cross Pendant and did not return the jewelry to Gardenia C. Hung. Gardenia C. Hung wants her Christian Cross Silver Bracelet returned for her right wrist. Moreover, all the contents of (2) two red handbags were emptied on the green lawn in front of St. Pius X Catholic Church, while the Red

Burberry umbrella was thrown on the green lawn by the Lombard Police, and they searched the yellow backpack containing water bottles and personal items.

Gardenia C. Hung, does not plead guilty to Count 1, Obstructing a Peace Officer, nor Count 2, Resisting a Peace Officer, or Count 3, Assault of the Lombard Police as defined by “an open threat of bodily contact with someone without permission”. Please note that Gardenia C. Hung's Red Burberry umbrella did not have any contact with any of the Lombard Police involved in this matter—Thiede, Benedicsen, Virene, Schrepferman, Pam, and/or Marciniak. None of the Lombard Police in this matter have been assaulted, injured or attacked by Gardenia C. Hung. While Gardenia C. Hung has been harassed, manhandled, scratched, and injured by Lombard Police Thiede who abused process for wrongful charges, false arrest/detention without foundation. The Lombard Police are at fault due to false imprisonment/detention, malicious prosecution which is to misuse the legal process to harass an individual, and interference with person by law in Illinois . Gardenia C. Hung was held at the Lombard Police Department for five (5) hours without any water or food by Lombard Policeman David Thiede, Badge No. 24. In addition, the Lombard Police Department has kept my Christian Silver Cross Bracelet and also trespassed into my private home to take the Red Burberry Umbrella on November 28, 2007.

As a result of the Lombard Police Department actions against me, I have been suffering financial hardship, unemployment, and personal needs for transportation cash in the Village of Lombard community and in Wheaton , Du Page County, Illinois to cover repeated court appearances at the 18th Judicial Circuit Court. I, Gardenia C. Hung, as a Victim of Crime by the Lombard Police Department, cannot pay $350US for Community Service Performed at St. Pius X Catholic Church in the Village of Lombard due to financial hardship, poverty, and no compensation or reimbursement monies received for physical abuse, personal injury, damages and losses caused by the Lombard Police Department in the Village of Lombard, Du Page County, Illinois, United States of America.
