Brad Foerster Asks President Grasso To Bring University of Michigan Back Into Compliance Over "Nick" Recording FOIA Constructive Denial
“Nick” was an unidentified witness who claimed to be a colleague of Paul Cronin’s at the University of Michigan and made false criminal allegations against Brad Foerster & Myria Petrou which allowed the Ann Arbor Police to maintain a freeze on their bank accounts after Myria’s mom Maria Petrou dropped her false allegations of embezzlement (only to be reinstated after Cronin denied any knowledge of “Nick” or extortion under oath). Without our knowledge, University of Michigan Office of General Counsel Kara Morgenstern solicited more false allegations from “Nick” against us. Morgenstern and OGC Special Counsel to the Provost Christine Gerdes ran a sham investigation into “Nick” only disclosed to Brad and Myria after Myria resigned and during Brad’s 5.09 proceedings. The provost initiated 5.09 proceedings against Brad in an attempt to terminate Brad who was tenured faculty. Brad and Myria just found out the Christine Gerdes has two memos about Russia-Gate referring to Brad and Myria with UM claiming the public interest does not outweigh UM’s privacy to deny disclosure of the memos. As part of this, Kara Morgenstern kept referring Brad and Myria to law enforcement (including the FBI) over false allegations (e.g. a “bugged” statue Brad and Myria sent to Chair Dr. Dunnick for his retirement and a “suspicious” letter Brad sent to Dr. Bradford about the Bank of Ann Arbor’s illegitimate Sheriff’s sale not paying first lien position (Bradford oversaw the 5.09 proceedings).
Based on the above, a reasonable person would conclude that University of Michigan was key in Brad's secret 500 page FBI investigation file of Russia-Gate which the FBI does not want to release to Brad.
