DEFENDANT #13: KATHRYN ANN BARGER-LEIBRICH (The Vernon Patterson Dossier)

 

Role in People v. Michael Taylor (XNEGA111132)
As an elected official on the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, Kathryn Barger received numerous direct and CC’d email communications documenting procedural fraud, judicial misconduct, constitutional violations, and psychiatric abuse in People v. Michael Taylor. Despite making initial contact, Barger ceased all responses, took no public or investigatory action, and allowed the County's subordinate legal institutions — including the Public Defender and Alternate Public Defender’s Offices — to continue operating in flagrant violation of due process and statutory rights.


Summary of Involvement
Kathryn Barger holds a unique position of oversight: as a County Supervisor, she is vested with administrative authority over all County agencies, including those directly responsible for the defense, prosecution, confinement, and evaluation of criminal defendants. Her role is not merely symbolic — she is responsible for ensuring accountability and intervening when County resources are used to violate civil and constitutional rights.

Mr. Taylor, through verified communications, alerted Barger in writing to critical legal violations committed by LA County agencies — including:

• The use of a sealed and unproduced court order to initiate psychiatric detention;
• Conflicts of interest declared by multiple public defenders in retaliation for constitutional assertions;
• Involuntary hospitalization and forced medication absent proper court findings;
• Procedural denial of Marsden hearings and ex parte case transfers across venues.

Barger responded once, establishing awareness and connection. But when the weight of the allegations escalated — involving sworn officers of the court, County employees, and ongoing false imprisonment — Barger went entirely silent. No referral, no internal audit, no statement, no inquiry. Her disengagement, coupled with her supervisory authority, forms a pattern of official nonfeasance.

Moreover, her silence functionally ratified the actions of the Alternate Public Defender’s Office, the County Clerk's office, and affiliated court personnel — all operating under County jurisdiction and budget. When layered upon the defendant’s evidentiary record and patterns of obstructive conduct by County attorneys, Barger’s inaction becomes complicity.


Why She Is Defendant #13 in the Dossier

• Received direct notice of unconstitutional acts by County personnel and did not intervene or respond.
• Failed to initiate inquiry, whistleblower protections, or review of the legal and psychiatric misconduct alleged.
• As a County Supervisor, bears oversight responsibility for the very agencies accused of perpetuating fraud, false imprisonment, and retaliatory legal tactics.
• Her silence helped insulate and empower ongoing violations, even as mounting evidence was placed in her hands.

> “Kathryn Barger read the warnings, saw the smoke, and turned her chair to the window. Her silence is not bureaucratic error — it is governance by omission. The Dossier names her as the eyes that refused to see.”
