THE ALCOHOL BEVERAGE INDUSTRY SHOULD PAY, NOT THE below named
VICTORY OVER ADDICTION INTERNATIONAL, INC. (VOAI) manages a registry of potential plaintiffs in future class action, and/or individual litigation. Although VOAI is a grassroots organization, we can be the DAVID (David and Goliath) that conquered. Like VOAI, VICTORY OVER ALCOHOL (VOA) class action/Individual effort is a simple and obvious solution to a severe, worsening problem. We will continue assisting individuals with problems as they arise, but ask that they register as potential litigants in the future.
The eventual class action/individual effort will directly affect every victim of alcohol, alcohol care service providers in America, public and private, including inpatient and outpatient hospital treatment programs, services by licensed professionals in private practice, services by nonprofit organizations providing professional or volunteer services, and public institutions that offer or require participation in the recovery group movement and its business arm, the alcohol treatment industry including jails, prisons, detention facilities, social welfare agencies, courts, military organizations and their health facilities, third-party payers for addiction treatment including insurance companies and managed care organizations, and employers whose personnel policies include referrals, direct or indirect, into employee benefit and health care programs that provide addiction treatment and expect participation in the recovery group movement. When we have a critical mass of potential plaintiffs in any jurisdiction, anywhere, or against any service provider, anywhere, we will identify proper legal representation and file.
How many is a critical mass? We receive at least one unsolicited call every day -- often several --telling of some mistreatment, abuse, deception, or violation of Constitutional rights. The American treatment tragedy may come to an end in a pile of legal briefs.
Currently, nearly 14 million Americans—1 in every 13 adults-abuse alcohol or are alcoholic. Several million more adults engage in risky drinking patterns that could lead to alcohol problems. In addition, approximately 53 percent of men and women in the United States report that one or more of their close relatives have a drinking problem.
Alcohol contributes to 100,000 deaths annually, making it the third leading cause of preventable mortality in the United States after tobacco and diet/activity patterns.
Now that President Bush signed into law the "The Class-Action Fairness Act of 2005", victims of alcohol are suggested and encouraged to go the route of inundating State Courts with individual lawsuits. In order to lessen the burden of attorneys willing to take on the Alcohol Beverage Industry, and educate the victims as to their rights, Victory Over Addiction International Inc. (VOAI) has made "God's Linchpin" available to all who desire compensation and justice for the damage alcohol has caused in their lives, for themselves and their families.

As the Founder of Victory Over Addiction International, Inc.,I allege that the "drug cartel", the alcohol beverage industry (ABI), have been responsible for the carnage of millions of God's Spiritual Beings. They are also the perpetrators of the multitude of societal problems, not only of the United States of America, but of the world, because of the product(s) they manufacture. I also allege the political and judicial lawmakers of our government and states are co-conspirators to this heinous crime, the magnitude of which is so far out of reach and uncomprehensible for the average citizen to digest. If you are an alcoholic, or have been a victim of the deleterious drug/poison alcohol, your Constitutional rights have been violated. As an alcoholic you have been denied your First Amendment , spiritual free will rights. In other words, your "Freedom of Religion" was taken from you by the lawmakers of this country by sanctioning alcohol as legal and not the addictive drug that it really is.
THE ENEMY-ARE WE OUR WORST ENEMY?
The Supreme Court and Congress "knew or should have known", which is a legal standard, that alcohol is a lethal, addictive, drug and a poison that destroys millions of lives. So, why aren't they doing something about saving the country from this mass form of manslaughter, devastation and destruction? Mr. and Mrs. USA this is your country, you live here, you own our country and are paying taxes to keep it alive for yourself and family to enjoy and to be happy while you're here on earth. Life is too short, time is running out for you and soon your children, if they escape the ravages of alcohol, will be looking at their children saying the same thing. Why are you letting the alcohol beverage industry, the government, the judiciary and the advertising world dictate the terms of your existence? Don't you realize that you are the United States of America?(excerpt from the last chapter of God's Linchpin)
The below are but a few defininitions of the possibilities that may or may not apply to the reader’s particular situation. I urge, and suggest strongly, that the reader retains an attorney for further advice. This writer personally believes, not only has a criminal act been committed, but constitutional rights have been violated.
Manslaughter: Manslaughter is the unjustifiable, inexcusable and intentional killing of a human being without delibertation, premeditation, and malice. State v. Bannister, MO.App., 512 S.W. 2d 843, 845. The unlawful killing of a human without any delibertation, which may be involuntary, in the commission of a lawful act without due caution and circumspection. Wallace v. U.S., 162 U.S. 466, 16 S. Ct. 859, 40 L. Ed. 1039. (Blacks Law Dictionary, 6th Addition, page 964)
Involuntary Manslaughter
: Involuntary manslaughter is the unintentional killing of a human being that results from a failing to perform a legal duty under circumstances amounting to criminal negligence.Involuntary Manslaughter: Such exists where a person is committing an unlawful act not felonious or tending to great bodily harm, or in committing a lawful act without proper caution or requisite skill, unguardedly or undersignedly kills another. Model Penal Code, 210.3(1)(a); 18 U.S.C.A. 1112. (Blacks Law Dictionary, 6th Addition, page 964)
Criminal negligence: Conduct that shows a reckless disregard for human life or safety and a willful indifference to the injury that is likely to follow. Add conspiracy to coverup the crime by two or more individuals and federal civil rights charges can be applied. For the federal law to apply, there must be proof that two or more people were conspiring to deprive an individual of civil rights. To go a step further, if death results, conviction can result in a term of up to life imprisonment and tens of thousands of dollars in fines. Probable cause is all that is needed for a Grand Jury to bring formal charges (indictment) against the accused.
Probable Cause: Reasonable ground for suspicion, supported by circumstances strong enough to warrant a cautious man’s belief that the law has been, or is being, violated.
FEDERAL LAW:
Under federal law it is illegal to give anything of value to a public official “for or because of any official act performed or to be performed” by the official. Government ethics regulations say officials may not accept a gift valued at more than $20. In contrast, the gratuity statute ( a criminal law) has no minimum. Any gift of value given to influence official acts violates the law.
Such laws are important because to accept such a gift would place the official in conflict of interest or at least raise the appearance of a conflict of interest.
