Why is this important?
On July 20th, 2009, my beautiful 6 year old grandson, Giovanni Kopystenski, was involved in a handgun accident in which he was fatally wounded. To compound the heartache, of what our family had lost and despite the fact that over less than a week's time of the accident, 3 police officers in Nevada and California suffered almost identical tragedies and lost their own children without any legal consequences; but Alexander Kopystenski, was subjected to a 12 to 20 year sentence for the incident. The Judge in his case, Judge Jesse Walsh, did not send him to prison but instead suspended a five year sentence and placed him on probation. Alex completed everything that probation required of him but he went above and beyond by becoming Nevada Chairman for AutismSpeaks, created Giovanni's Legacy Foundation, in honor of his son's life which is multi-functional in its endeavors ranging from organized events for the families of autistic children to working to receive NIH funding for John Hopkins University Research studies on Epigenetic Autism.
On Wednesday, February 11th, 2015, Alex was scheduled to return to court before Judge Walsh with the expectation that he was going to be removed from probation and on his way to rebuilding his life into a new reality and would finally be able to grieve over the losses he had suffered but was, for over five years, unable to try to put to rest or at least try to figure out his new reality without his little boy. Judge Walsh was almost jovial when she looked at his progress report and said, "All right, Mr. Kopystenski, as usual you have done everything you were supposed to and then some.". Before she could go any further, the DA interrupted Judge Walsh to advise her that my son Lex had gotten into trouble on two separate incidents and wanted him remanded into jail. The Judge looked absolutely confused, as did we and after a few minutes, Judge Walsh decided to postpone the court date by one month for whatever is going to be the outcome of what was a confusing situation.
Upon returning home we were called by the probation officer to instruct my son to come into their office by 2:30p.m., which is where enough became too much. Upon arrival Lex was called into the back area and within about ten minutes I was asked if my car could be searched. I gave the probation officer my car key and then another officer came out to ask me some questions. Unbeknownst to me, I was being detained with nonsense questions until I asked for my keys and my son. The officer then told me that the probation officer had left with Lex, going to my house to search the premises. While driving, which I am not supposed to do anymore, the officer called me and told me that my house keys were under the outside mat and that my son was being taken to jail. I was informed that when I gave them my car key, they removed my house key from my key ring, without my permission, which is "theft" and by the time I walked into my empty house I found that they had not just searched the house, they had destroyed and vandalized my son's quarters and had broken a number of very expensive pieces of furniture. They had found nothing and then I realized that they had entered my living space and taken my marijuana out of the back of my closet and charged my son with possession. I called and tried to explain that they needed to return what they considered "contraband" but I considered a prescribed medication that was important for the relief to my failing eyesight, my crippling arthritis and my fibromyalgia. When I advised them, as had my son that while in Nevada, medical marijuana is legal, I have a VA pharmacy card that is valid in all 50 states and if there are no commissaries or legalized medical pot, according to Federal law that was passed in 2010, I can go to any VA clinic to pick up what was necessary for me to bit suffer grin the pain behind my eyes and into my head, as well as the anxiety I suffered since these people began harassing my son for no reason. My son is also my legal caregiver, appointed by the VA and removing him without at least ten days notice was not only a violation of Federal Law, but was the intermediary between my ability to function, take my medicine, go to the doctors and to even climb a flight of stars etc .
My son, also known as DJ Lexo, has not only served his time for whatever reason that those three police officers who were just deliberately careless, while he is without the son that made his Sun light up his life, but hasn't even had time to grieve because the local government decided that if losing the child that he loved more than I have ever known a man to love being Giovanni's Dad. Enough is enough. Free my son. Free DJ Lexo.
If you care, please sign this petition and share it with all your friends and followers. My son, Alexander Kopystenski does not deserve what is being brought upon him and without him being here with me during my present medical situation, my own life expectancy is in jeopardy. It does not matter that Nevada Parole & Probation does not recognize Federal Law but it does matter that they illegally stole entry into my home, destroyed my home, stole my medication and then removed my legal fiduciary and full time caregiver for reasons known only to the six month educated criminal defense trade schoolers but they are being allowed to destroy what is left of my family, my son and I are basically at the mercy of these high school graduates regardless of the federal laws, the VA, the Eighth District Court and all the medical professionals.
