Voters Reject Assistant State Attorney's Bid For Judicial Office OUR PREDICTION Assistant State Attorney J. Ryan Will Will Seek A Gubernatorial Judicial Appointment. OUR OPINION Will's Professional Disciplinary History, And Questionable Ethics SHOULD Preclude This Appointment. |
November,13 2018 |
ASA J. Ryan Will Last month (October 2018) this publication felt an obligation to advise the public of our concerns surrounding judicial candidate J. Ryan Will. Within our October 21, 2018 article we explained why - in our OPINION - Assistant State Attorney J. Ryan Will does not possess the ethical foundation to occupy a judicial seat. On November 6, 2018 - the voters spoke when Orange City attorney Linda Gaustad soundly defeated Mr. Will, in his attempt to secure a judicial seat via the electorial process. Due to the recent death of Circuit Judge Clyde E. Wolfe - the Seventh (7th) Judicial Nominating Commission (JNC) is currently accepting judicial applications in order to forward a gubernatiorial appointment to fill this open judicial seat. This publication predicts that Mr. Will will submit an application to the JNC in order to secure a gubernatorial appointment to the bench. Mr. Will has in the past attempted to secure a gubernatorial appointment - but has been unsuccessful. |
The Greenlaw Brothers' Murder Prosecution Watch and listen as Assistant State Attorney J. Ryan Will misrepresents the evidence / facts in the Greenlaw brothers murder trial. How the Greenlaws ambushed the two victims as they left the Greenlaws home. IN TRUTH - evidence strongly supports that the two "victims" were ordered off the Greenlaw property - they left - weaponed up - with at least one shotgun - and then RETURNED to the Greenlaw house where and when the deadly exchanged transpired.

This publication suspects that Mr. Will's disciplinary history with the Florida Bar and the Florida Supreme Court - in which his honesty was questioned - has been an impediment to his securing a judicial seat. (More on this later within this article)
The Corrupt Politics Associated With Judicial Appointments However, within Florida's corrupt judicial system - credibility impediments can easily be overcome - especially with the right political allies. A review of Mr. Will's election website indicates a rather impressive list of supporters. Many of Mr. Will's supporters are well heeled, politically connected, individuals. Since Governor-Elected Ron Desantis* was recently a U.S. Congressman for the Volusia County area - we would imagine that some of Will's politically connected supporters have the ear of Mr. Desantis. Further - Governor Rick Scott's recent election to U.S. Senator* has placed him in a position whereas Scott could appoint Mr. Will to a judicial position without subjecting himself to any significant political blow back - connected to Mr. Will's past professional misconduct history with the Florida Bar / Florida Supreme Court. HIS WIN AT ALL COST APPROACH TO CRIMINAL PROSECUTIONS THE CRIMINAL PROSECUTION OF WAYNE & RAY GREENLAW Did Assistant State Attorney J. Ryan Will Misrepresent The Evidence & Testimony? |
During a January - February 2015 trial, Wayne & Ray Greenlaw (Greenlaw brothers) were convicted of shooting and killing Brian Leverett, and seriously injuring Justin Riley.
Riley has relatives (see courtroom video -->), that are (were) present and past senior management employees within both the State Attorney's office, and the Volusia County Sheriff's Office. In fact, the day of the shooting, one of Riley's family members reported to the shooting scene, in his official capacity as a law enforcement officer. A crime scene that may have missing evidence - in the particular - spent shotgun shells. (See above right - green text - for additional information regarding shotgun shells) |
Justin Riley Testifies That He Has / Had Relatives Within The Ranks Of The VCSO & State Attorney Office |
Like in the Jerry Crew criminal prosecution (see below) - whereas Mr. Will received disciplinary action from the Florida Supreme Court for misrepresenting the evidence / testimony - we forward the OPINION that Mr. Will also misrepresented the evidence / testimony in the Greenlaw brothers' murder trial.
As is available for review in the attached courtroom videos from the Greenlaws' trial (see above right of page) - Mr. Will advised the jury that the Greenlaw brothers ambushed the two "victims" - as the victims attempted to leave the Greenlaws' property. Actually, the evidence supports that the two "victims" left the Greenlaws' property - but went to a nearby residence - weaponed up - including a shotgun - and then returned to the Greenlaw residence. We voice the concerns that Mr. Will's misrepresentations - were both purposeful - and had nefarious intentions - the goal being to assist his friends and associates within the Volusia County Sheriff's & the State Attorney's Offices. These friends and associates being the family members of "victim" Justin Riley. Assistant State Attorney J. Ryan Will Disciplined By The Florida Supreme Court For Misrepresentation In A Murder Prosecution |
On April 16, 2011 - Wisteria Harry's nineteen year old son - Donnell "DJ" Ellis, Jr. was shot and killed in the parking lot of a Holly Hill motel.
Seven individuals were present during Ellis' homicide - to include Jerry Crew. With that, no one, including - the police, the State Attorney or Wisteria Harry suspects that Crew actually killed her son. However, Assistant State Attorney J. Ryan Will opted to criminally prosecuted Crew for second degree felony murder. To be prosecuted for felony murder - the defendant does not need to actually commit the murder - rather the defendant merely has to be involved in a felony which results in a homicide. The State Attorney identified - charged - and convicted Chauncey Gilmore as being the responible party in Ellis' homicide. But Ms. Harry has the belief that her son was NOT killed by Gilmore - but rather by a man name Jammie Evans. Harry has voiced her support for both Crew and Gilmore - and her distain for the police investigation and Mr. Will's decision to criminally prosecute Crew and Gilmore - and not to prosecute Jammie Evans. Our February 23, 2015 article covers Harry's concerns in more details. Mere Name Calling During Mr. Will's recent unsuccessful run for judicial office - he filed a Florida Bar Judicial Candidate Voluntary Self Disclosure form. Within this disclosure form - Mr. Will states that his Florida Bar / Supreme Court disciplinary action was taken in response to him referring to Mr. Crew as a "crackhead". |
JUDICIAL CANDIDATE SELF DISCLOSURE FORM Within a June 2018 Voluntary Disclosure Form that judicial candidates file with the Florida Bar - Mr. Will states that the disciplinary action applied against him by the Florida Supreme Court was for referring to a criminal defendant as a "crackhead". The rationale for the disciplinary action was far more than just name calling. While Mr. Will may desire for people to believe that his disciplinary action by the Florida Supreme Court was merely for calling a criminal defendant a "crackhead" - this account is just NOT THE WHOLE TRUTH. The Daytona Beach News Journal memorialized in their September 2015 article that Mr. Will had been held accountable for a section the Florida Bar rules that prohibit dishonesty and misrepresentations. VOLUSIAEXPOSED.COM FORWARDS THE OPINION THAT MR. WILL COMMITTED VERY SIMILAR MISCONDUCT REGARDING THE GREENLAW BROTHERS' MURDER PROSECUTION - AS HE DID IN THE JERRY CREW PROSECUTION. |
While it is true that Mr. Will's disciplinary action was partially caused by the "crackhead" comment - Florida Bar records (see section 6C) clearly indicate that the rationale for his disciplinary action was far more serious then mere name calling. The Florida Bar paperwork indicates that Mr. Will "mischaracterized the testimony of a witness".
So like in the Greenlaw brothers' trial - here we go again within the Crew prosecution - with Assistant State Attorney J. Ryan Will misrepresenting the facts and evidence in a murder prosecution. Further, when Mr. Will filed his judicial self disclosure form - he again misrepresents the full and actual rationale for his disciplinary action. AFFIDAVIT QUESTIONS WHETHER ASSISTANT STATE ATTORNEY ELICITED PERJURED TESTIMONY FROM A WITNESS IN A MURDER PROSECUTION According to his murder indictment - James Booth was criminally prosecuted for the January 25, 2011 murder of Debra Gibson. Court documents indicate that Booth attempted to intimidate Gibson into not providing evidence against him in another criminal prosecution. |
Court (2015 Affidavit) and media records (2012 Daytona Beach News Journal article) indicate that Booth's girlfriend - Magean Ward - had significant information that would assist the State Attorney's Office in their prosecution of Booth.
In our OPINION - it is disturbing that during her 2012 media interview (see right of page) - Ward alleges that she was being "manipulated" by members of the Volusia County Sheriff's Office and the Office of the State Attorney into making statements against Booth - in exchange for her release from jail on unrelated drug charges. More disturbing is a January 2015 Affidavit - filed by well respected local defense attorney Michael Lambert. Lambert's affidavit is supported by a January 2015 sworn deposition given by Ward. (see attachment to Lambert's affidavit) Within her deposition - Ward advises Lambert that Assistant State Attorney J. Ryan Will and Volusia County Sheriff Deputy Betz picked up Ward from the Volusia County jail and took her to a fast food restaurant. During this restaurant meeting - Ward alleges that Mr. Will told her to lie under oath - and during the Booth trial - on whether she had been offered any plea deal in exchange for her testimony. Ward - further advised Mr. Lambert that Mr. Will promised her that if she complied and lied during the Booth trial - she would get her charges dismissed - giving her, her life back. This publication is left wondering - IF the above is true - and Assistant State Attorney J. Ryan Will knowingly allowed Ms. Ward to lie during Mr. Booth's trial - what other falsehoods were presented as facts during the Booth trial*? A review of Ward's criminal history indicates that she has had several criminal charges - whereas the disposition of those cases were either having the adjudication of guilt withheld OR the charges were dropped. Could the State still be cutting Ward a break - due in part to Booth's on-going appeal of his criminal conviction? So - who really knows if Mr. Will told Ward to lie during the Booth trial? Only Mr. Will, Deputy Betz and Ward would know the truth. |

However, truth has a mathematical component to it - and here is what we can calculate. The Florida Bar & the Florida Supreme Court has questioned Mr. Will's veracity - especially regarding his comfort level in "misrepresenting" evidence in a murder prosecution (CREW).
Courtroom video support that Mr. Will misrepresented the facts, evidence and / or testimony in the Greenlaw brothers' prosecution (OUR OPINION - watch the videos for yourself - develop your own OPINION). We also have Mr. Lambert's affidavit regarding Magean Ward - a testament, that we feel Mr. Lambert would not have filed without having a concern that justice was being perverted. Lastly - and maybe the most important point - we have Mr. Will himself within his voluntary disclosure form - attempting to misrepresent his sustained prosecutorial misconduct as a mere name calling incident. Does this meet the definition of lying by omission? Mathematically - there is only one common denominator to all of this - Assistant State Attorney, J. Ryan Will. With that - we hold the OPINION that Assistant State Attorney J. Ryan Will does not have the ethical foundation to hold a judicial seat. ....and there you have it.... standby to standby - there is surely more to come of this...... |
