    FACTS

    Mendy Powell Neal, who was charged with the first degree premeditated and felony murder of her husband and the aggravated arson of their home, entered a North Carolina v. Alford, 400 U.S. 25, 37 (1970), best interest plea to voluntary manslaughter, a Class C felony, in exchange for the dismissal of the felony murder and aggravated arson counts of the presentment and an agreed range of three to four years, with the trial court to determine the length and manner of service of the sentence.

    At the conclusion of the sentencing hearing, the trial court denied the Defendant’s request for judicial diversion, determined that she was not a suitable candidate for probation or other alternative sentencing, and sentenced her as a Range I, standard offender to four years at 30% in the Tennessee Department of Correction.

    In State Of Tennessee v. Mendy Powell Neal, No. M2023-01176-CCA-R3-CD, Court of Criminal Appeals of Tennessee, Nashville (November 26, 2024) the Court of Criminal Appeals affirmed the trial court.

    The Defendant’s husband, Matthew Neal, died in a house fire that totally consumed the couple’s Charlotte log home. The Defendant was charged with the first degree premediated murder of the victim, the first degree felony murder of the victim during the perpetration of an aggravated arson, and the aggravated arson of the home.

    The Defendant proceeded to a jury trial where the State presented evidence for three days establishing the crimes.

    The neighbor, Mr. Swan and a responding deputy, who could hear the victim moaning on the other side of the closed front door, attempted to enter the home but were unable due to the intensity of the fire. The next day, the victim’s burned body was found within ten feet of the front door. The victim was burned over 95% of his body and died of carbon monoxide toxicity and thermal injury. Autopsy showed he was drugged and couldn’t escape.

    Regardless of the evidence of premeditated murder the trial court found that the Defendant’s lack of a criminal history was an applicable mitigating factor and enhancement factors that the victim was particularly vulnerable because of age or physical or mental disability, that the Defendant treated or allowed the victim to be treated with exceptional cruelty during the commission of the offense, that the Defendant had no hesitation about committing the crime when the risk to human life was high, and that the Defendant abused a position of private trust that significantly facilitated the commission of the offense.

    The trial court found that sentencing the Defendant to the maximum length in the Tennessee Department of Correction “was the just and proper sentence due to the Defendant’s misrepresentation and dishonesty as well as the overwhelming circumstantial proof of Defendant’s conniving and forethought regarding the crime.”

    ANALYSIS

    The Court of Criminal Appeals found that there was nothing that warranted waiver of the timely notice of appeal requirement with respect to the trial court’s original sentencing determinations and the trial court acted well within its discretion in declining to reduce or modify the Defendant’s sentence. The Defendant did not show any circumstances, warranting the alteration of her sentence in the interest of justice.

    ZALMA OPINION

    It takes a massive amount of chutzpah (Yiddish for unmitigated gall) to drug your husband so he could not escape being burned to death after setting fire to the house to kill him and collect on a life insurance policy, and then, when damning evidence was presented offer a Alford plea to manslaughter. To then complain that court imposed the maximum sentence even though her agreement with the court changed the aggravated, premeditated murder that could have resulted in life in prison to manslaughter and only 4 years.

  • THE CDC TOOK ADVANTAGE OF ME

    I'm not a real big fan of these "I told you so" videos!
    Despite these people mostly being real pricks, who were just fine with treating anyone who who didn't join their ""#Vaccine #Cult" like dirt....

    And advocating for us not to be seen if we had a medical emergency, or
    for us not being allowed in the grocery, restaurants, or anywhere in polite society unless we bowed at the alter of big pharma.....

    I'm just NOT a fan of mocking them....
    Despite them being pricks, they were our brothers and sisters in some sense!

    Not THIS GUY.... This turd worked as a high level "doctor" at the #CDC when he was not worshiping the devil or taking it up his backside!

    Easy to tell that he was a queer #Satanist.... and likely had this coming!
    THIS IS THE TYPE OF PEOPLE HOLDING HIGH LEVEL POSITIONS WITHIN GOVERNMENT OFFICES!!!

    And you wonder why nobody trusts the corrupt and illegitimate "government"???
    Take a look at who was "Advising" people to take the jab!!!

    He is even throwing up the Illuminati hand signs!
    FAFO I suppose!

    DO NOT TEMPT THE MOST HIGH!
    Despite all of this, I still don't like these "I told you so" videos!

    Because the fact of the matter is that we should be "Tarring & Feathering"
    (Or something similar)the scumbags responsible for all of this RIGHT NOW!

    The fact that NOT A SINGLE ONE OF THOSE RESPONSIBLE HAVE BEEN ARRESTED tells you everything you need to know about the legitimacy of the "government" and their THUG #Police force!

    They have no problem with economically terrorizing everyone in America, or shooting people's pets, wrongfully imprisoning their fellow Americans....

    But you won't see them arresting any REAL CRIMINALS
    like those responsible for committing #Genocide!

    You see... Their actual "Job" is to economically terrorize YOU, as they PROTECT the real #Criminals within government! The #Pedophiles, murderers and thieves...

    MAYBE people will wake up to this fact one day

    Thanksgiving Wishes from the Zalma Family

    My family and I have much to be thankful for this year. My first born daughter, Stephanie Zalma, continues to care for my wife 24 hours a day 7 days a week with love and patience as Thea continues as Nana to our two grandchildren and the loving mother of our three children.

    After receiving a new Aortic Heart Valve I am personally in good health, walking about 25 miles a week. Exercising my, apparently unusual mode of retirement, I work only six to eight hours a day doing what I love the most, writing about insurance, insurance claims, insurance law and acting as an insurance claims consultant and expert witness.

    Ethical Behavior & Insurance

    Insurance, from the time of its first agreement to the present day has always been a business requiring ethical behavior between the insurer and the insured and between the insured and the insurer.

    The concept of ethical behavior refers to well-founded standards of right and wrong that prescribe what humans ought to do, usually in terms of rights, obligations, benefits to society, fairness, or specific virtues, all of which are essential to the lawyer.

    Ethics refers to those standards that impose the reasonable obligations to refrain from murder, rape, theft, assault, slander, and fraud. Ethical standards also include those that imply virtues of honesty, compassion, and loyalty.

    There are rights presumed to exist such as those described in the Declaration of Independence submitted to King George of England in 1776 that held:

    We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

    The unalienable rights also include the right to life, the right to freedom from injury, and the right to liberty. Such standards are adequate standards of ethics because they are supported by consistent and well-founded reasons.

    Health Insurance Fraud Convictions

    Michigan Woman Convicted of $1.4M Health Care Kickback Scheme

    Mary Smettler-Bolton, 71, of Oakland County, Michigan was convicted November 22, 2024 for her role in a conspiracy to defraud the United States and receive illegal health care kickbacks.

    According to court documents and evidence presented at trial, Mary referred Medicare beneficiaries to several Metro Detroit home health companies in exchange for hundreds of thousands of dollars in kickbacks paid by the owners and operators of the home health companies. Over the course of four years, she and her co-conspirators caused over $1.4 million of loss to Medicare.

    Smettler-Bolton was convicted of one count of conspiracy to defraud the United States and receive illegal health care kickbacks and one count of violating the federal Anti-Kickback Statute. She is scheduled to be sentenced on March 3, 2025, and faces a maximum penalty of five years in prison on the conspiracy count and a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison on the kickback count. A federal district court judge will determine any sentence after considering the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors.

    The Examination Under Oath Is Not Part of a Judicial Process

    Although the EUO is a formal proceeding it is not part of a judicial process nor is it subject to the rules set out by codes of civil procedure. There is no right to object to questions and never a judge present to rule on the objections. The testimony at the EUO is required to be presented in accordance with the obligation imposed on an insured to deal fairly and in good faith with the insurer.

My first born daughter, Stephanie Zalma, continues to care for my wife 24 hours a day 7 days a week with love and patience as Thea continues as Nana to our two grandchildren and the loving mother of our three children. After receiving a new Aortic Heart Valve I am personally in good health, walking about 25 miles a week. Exercising my, apparently unusual mode of retirement, I work only six to eight hours a day doing what I love the most, writing about insurance, insurance claims, insurance law and acting as an insurance claims consultant and expert witness.

Read the full article at https://zalma.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/ZIFL-12-01-2024.pdf Ethical Behavior & Insurance Insurance, from the time of its first agreement to the present day has always been a business requiring ethical behavior between the insurer and the insured and between the insured and the insurer. The concept of ethical behavior refers to well-founded standards of right and wrong that prescribe what humans ought to do, usually in terms of rights, obligations, benefits to society, fairness, or specific virtues, all of which are essential to the lawyer. Ethics refers to those standards that impose the reasonable obligations to refrain from murder, rape, theft, assault, slander, and fraud. Ethical standards also include those that imply virtues of honesty, compassion, and loyalty. There are rights presumed to exist such as those described in the Declaration of Independence submitted to King George of England in 1776 that held: We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of happiness. The unalienable rights also include the right to life, the right to freedom from injury, and the right to liberty. Such standards are adequate standards of ethics because they are supported by consistent and well-founded reasons.

According to court documents and evidence presented at trial, Mary referred Medicare beneficiaries to several Metro Detroit home health companies in exchange for hundreds of thousands of dollars in kickbacks paid by the owners and operators of the home health companies. Over the course of four years, she and her co-conspirators caused over $1.4 million of loss to Medicare. Smettler-Bolton was convicted of one count of conspiracy to defraud the United States and receive illegal health care kickbacks and one count of violating the federal Anti-Kickback Statute. She is scheduled to be sentenced on March 3, 2025, and faces a maximum penalty of five years in prison on the conspiracy count and a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison on the kickback count. A federal district court judge will determine any sentence after considering the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors.

There is no right to object to questions and never a judge present to rule on the objections. The testimony at the EUO is required to be presented in accordance with the obligation imposed on an insured to deal fairly and in good faith with the insurer.
