A Collection of Witnesses Killed

The Dead Homeless of Contra Costa dying - There is no safety net other than death

I have had first-hand dealings with Contra Costa Law Enforcement, the convicted felon district attorney Mark Peterson and many members of the current Board of Supervisors.

I have stood up in front of the supervisors and within a week five of my relatives were dead in Utah that was after I piece together my girlfriend have been murdered with her daughter.

During December 2019 I was attempting to file a brief against PG&E, filed claims with the bankruptcy trustee and get my story in front of Judge Alsup so that he knows Witnesses are being killed.

Today I am homeless as of July 2020, I consider myself an unsheltered male at risk, I'm unable to secure disability my state representatives refused to help me and as well as most of the board has turned a deaf ear.

I'll apply for this job with the letter, I can barely walk after the last assault oh, I won't go back to the county hospital because I almost died there and I know who did it I know how it was done and I know how it was covered up.

I'm pretty sure at this point that there's a lot of Kickbacks or Paola within the county.

You can find my resume at Pete Bennett. Net or PeteBennett.Blogspot.com

All my equipment has been broken oh, my servers racks desks chairs systems desktops and my entire Services business destroyed.

 when I get a laptop I will return to these pages and fix the errors
