First Campaign Statement by Sam Sloan

| First Campaign Statement by Sam Sloan
Ever since I took office on the board last August, I have fulfilled or
tried my best to fulfill every campaign promise I made. I have opened
up and started an investigation into why the USCF lost two million
dollars in post years. I have exposed payments made by board members
to their political allies. I have in most cases (but not in all cases)
stopped wasteful and ridiculous expenditures. Most importantly, I have
opened the doors to the inner sanctum and exposed some of the most
vile political deals, secrets which are not secret anymore.
Tremendous efforts were made to stop me from taking the office to
which I had been elected. Efforts have been made to censure me, to
reprimand me, to recall me and so on. Big bucks are going to be spent
this year to stop me from being re-elected, and for good reason. It is
up to you, the voters, to decide whether you want to return to the
politics of secrecy, whether you want the door that I have opened to
be slammed shut again.
The delegates, in their wisdom, have voted to give me 100 words to
explain my court case in Virginia. I have eight children. One of them
is Shamema, whom many of you met when I used to bring her with me to
International chess tournaments. When Shamema was eight years old, she
was kidnapped by unrelated right-wing fanatics and taken to Virginia.
When I came to Virginia to try to recover my kidnapped daughter, I was
immediately arrested, tried and convicted for trying to get my
daughter back.

Questions for Sam Sloan:
1. Did you place your daughter Shamena in the care of Shelby Roberts
in November 1982?
2. Did you agree to compensate the Roberts for care of Shamena?
3. Who cared for your daughter from November 1982 to August 1986?
4. On April 2, 1986, after hearing, Judge Lawrence Janow entered an
order granting temporary legal custody to plaintiff and temporary
physical custody to the present custodians, Charles and Shelby
Roberts, unnamed in the order. The plaintiff was given visitation
rights provided that he not take Shamema out of state without a court
order. The case was continued until August 25. On August 25, 1986,
were you in fact awarded physical custody of Shamena by Judge Lawrence
Janow, ***effective September 7, 1986***?
5. In that same decision of August 25, 1986, were the Roberts (who had
provided the care of your child that, in 1982, you were unable or
unwilling to provide, and continued to do so for almost four years)
"allowed 'reasonable overnight visitation' rights 'as Counsel
agrees'?
6. It seems to this lay person that on and prior to August 25, 1986,
the Commonwealth of Virginia acted wisely: it recognized the
biological parent's legal rights (even though he had failed to
previously provide the care that it is the duty of every parent to
provide); it also recognized that the Roberts, who alone had cared for
Shamena between November 1982 and August 1986, loved Shamena, and she
loved them. In its decision, the Commonwealth was acting on Shamena's
behalf. Why did you leave Virginia in late August 1986, **PRIOR TO
THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF YOUR BEING AWARDED PHYSICAL CUSTODY OF
SHAMENA**, depriving your daughter and the Roberts of each others'
love?
7. Do you see love as a zero-sum game?
8. As a "converted, practicing Muslim" you did not want your daughter
to attend a Christian school. Fine. Why did you simply not wait
until September 7, 1986, then petition to have your daughter attend
public school?
9. On September 4, 1986, after you had left the Commonwealth in
violation of the April 2, 1986, court order, the court rescinded that
portion of the August 25 order that was to have given physical custody
of Shamema to you effective September 7, 1986. Therefore, there was
never a moment in 1986 that the Commonwealth of Virginia awarded
physical custody of Shamena to you. I cite directly: "Plaintiff's
removal of Shamema from the Commonwealth of Virginia in violation of
the April 2 order resulted in his arrest twice on the basis of a
federal kidnapping warrant, once in Guam, and once in Hawaii, but the
charge was dropped after Lynchburg officials refused to pay the cost
of extradition from these locations." Why did you kidnap your
daughter?
10. Your ally Larry Parr (not currently a member of the United States
Chess Federation) views children as chattel. Do you agree with Parr?
11. Former USCF President Leroy Dubeck thinks that a kidnapper
(admittedly unconvicted) and a twice-convicted felon is fit to serve
as a fiduciary for the United States Chess Federation.
12. Phil Innes would prefer to talk about standards. Would you like
to join Innes in this discussion?

92 Civ. 2388 (RJD)
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
Go, United States Magistrate Judge
The instant motions to dismiss and for a permanent injunction have
been referred to the undersigned by the Honorable Raymond J. Dearie
for a Report and Recommendation pursuant to 28 U.S.C. ? 636 (b) (1)
(B), as have plaintiff's motion for appointment of counsel and
plaintiff's motion for a temporary restraining order and preliminary
injunction.
Plaintiff Ismail Sloan brings this action individually and on behalf
of five of his children, his mother, and his four wives. He alleges in
the complaint a multitude of conspiracies on the part of the 65 named
defendants essentially to kidnap plaintiff's mother and three of his
children, and to steal his mother's money. Plaintiff alleges that
[t]he purpose of all of these kidnappings is and has been to seize
control of the financial assets and income of Helen Marjorie Sloan,
who has a considerable net worth relative to Lynchburg and a monthly
income of more than $4,000, to take the three children for illegal
adoption, and to convert the children to Christianity." par. 33. The
defendants include state court judges, federal consular officers,
social service agencies, police officers, the United States Department
of State, plaintiff's brother, two banks, two airlines, and others.
The major conspiracies that various groups of defendants allegedly
perpetrated are as follows: that, under the direction of plaintiff's
brother, defendant Creighton Wesley Sloan, various defendants
conspired in the kidnapping of plaintiff's mother from a Bangkok
hospital to the United States in September 1990; that various
defendants conspired to kidnap two of plaintiff's children from their
home in the United Arab Emirates in October 1990 and one from Virginia
in November 1990; that Virginia state court judges wrongfully awarded
custody of his daughter, Shamema Honzagool Sloan, to Charles and
Shelby Roberts; that a South Carolina state court judge wrongfully
awarded guardianship of plaintiff's mother to his brother, Creighton
Sloan, and conservatorship of her assets to N.C.N.B. Bank and that his
brother is dissipating their mother's assets and intends to sell her
house against her wishes.
Plaintiff seeks the following relief: a writ of habeas corpus
requiring the production before this Court plaintiff's mother and five
of his children the of overturning of a Commonwealth of Virginia
custody determination regarding his daughter, Shamema, and the
awarding of custody of Shamema, Michael Sloan, and Jessica Sloan to
plaintiff; the enjoining of all state court proceedings relating to
the subject matter of this action, including future arrests of the
plaintiff; the reversal of South Carolina rulings relating to the
guardianship and control of assets of plaintiff's mother, or that all
funds of plaintiff and his mother would be restored to their bank
accounts, and the sale of his mother's house should be enjoined; the
enjoining of Shamema's current guardians from any future contact with
her; and $100 million dollars in damages.
For the reasons set forth below, it is recommended that the complaint
be dismissed. Although plaintiff narrates a fascinating and moving
tale of woe, redress is not available from this Court.
FACTUAL BACKGROUND
Plaintiff has made a career as a chess manager, author, journalist,
and securities dealer. pp. 43, 110. His daughter, Shamema Honzagool
Sloan, was born on October 15, 1981 in New York City to his wife,
Honzagool, a native of Pakistan. pp. 44. Honzagool was awarded custody
of Shamema in May 1982 by the Bronx Supreme Court; in August of that
year Honzagool returned to Pakistan, where she has apparently
remained, leaving Shamema in the United States. par. 49. Plaintiff
placed Shamema in the care of Shelby Roberts of Madison Heights,
Virginia from November 1982 to August 1986, paying her $110 per week.
pp. 50-51. Plaintiff alleges that he had to hide Shamema in Virginia
because he feared the Black Muslim Underground Militant Organization
from Pakistan would try to kidnap her. par. 50.
Plaintiff filed a petition for custody of Shamema before Lynchburg
Family Court in September 1983 and alleges that Judge Dale Harris
"refused to set that matter down for a hearing." par. 98. On January
13, 1986, plaintiff filed a petition for custody of Shamema in the
Amherst county Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court. par. 100. On
April 2, 1986, after hearing, Judge Lawrence Janow entered an order
granting temporary legal custody to plaintiff and temporary physical
custody to the present custodians, Charles and Shelby Roberts, unnamed
in the order. The plaintiff was given visitation rights provided that
he not take Shamema out of state without a court order. The case was
continued until August 25.
On August 25, 1986, Judge Janow held a conference attended by the
Roberts, their attorney, Frank Davidson III, the plaintiff and his
attorney Stephen Martin, and J. Thompson Shrader, the court-appointed
guardian litem for Shamema. That day, Judge Janow issued a decision
awarding physical custody of Shamema to the plaintiff effective
September 7, 1986, and allowing the Roberts, "reasonable overnight
visitation" rights "as Counsel agrees". The order provided for
maintenance of the status quo and allowed Shamema to be enrolled at
the Temple Baptist school, where she had been enrolled before, rather
than public school. par. 106; see also order dated August 25, 1986, a
copy of which was submitted with plaintiff's letter of April 18,
1993.
Plaintiff states that he, a converted, practicing Muslim, did not want
his daughter to attend a Christian school. par. 108. Apparently for
that reason, plaintiff left Virginia with his mother and Shamema that
night and, a few weeks later, flew to Argentina where plaintiff
attended a chess tournament. pp. 51, 3.07-110. The plaintiff, his
mother, and his daughter eventually settled for the next four years in
the United Arab Emirates, where plaintiff worked as a columnist for a
local newspaper.
Charles Roberts, through his attorney, Frank Davidson III, filed a
custody Petition an August 27, 1986. par. 52. Since plaintiff had
already left the state, Roberts never personally served plaintiff with
the papers, and, instead, obtained leave to publish a notice of
service in the Amherst New Era Progress, a local county weekly. pp.
143, 227. On September 4, the court rescinded that portion of the
August 25 order that gave physical custody of Shamema to plaintiff
effective September 7 and left physical custody either with the
Roberts after that date, or with the Amherst County Department of
Social Services with leave to place the child "with any suitable
persons, including Charles and Shelby Roberts." Plaintiff's removal of
Shamema from the Commonwealth of Virginia in violation of the April 2
order resulted in his arrest twice on the basis of a federal
kidnapping warrant, once in Guam, and once in Hawaii, but the charge
was dropped after Lynchburg officials refused to pay the cost of
extradition from these locations. pp. 17, 20-21, 128-29, 130-31. Judge
Janow also issued a nationwide detention order for Shamema. par. 146.
[...]
RECOMMENDATION
Plaintiff voluntarily placed Shamema in the care of Shelby Roberts in
1982 and later submitted to the jurisdiction of the Amherst County
Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court when he filed his petition for
custody of Shamema on January 13, 1986. During the period after his
departure from the United States in 1986, plaintiff was in
communication with his attorney, Stephen Martin, who informed him that
failure to return Shamema from visitation would be a violation of the
April 2, 1986 court order, since the Roberts still had the rights of
physical custody until September 7, 1986. Stephen Martin also informed
him at this time that the Court had authority by statute to place
Shamema in the custody of whomever the Court felt was in her best
interest, but that "I believe that I was never able to convince Mr.
Sloan that a Court has the right to place custody at least temporarily
with anyone based on the best interest of the child, even if that
person is not a party to this action and has not filed any kind of
petition for custody. Letter from Stephen Martin to David B. Bice --
plaintiff's defense attorney in the attempted abduction case dated
January 28, 1993. Plaintiff's assertions that the Amherst County
Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court violated due process is simply
based on his disagreement with the awarding of temporary custody of
Shamema to the Amherst Department of Social Services, a non-party to
the custody proceeding, and his refusal to accept that a court could
find that the "best interest of the child could result in granting
custody to non-parties. Similarly, his charge that Shelby Roberts
lacked standing to sue for custody is unfounded.
As mentioned above, on September 4, l986, the court rescinded that
portion of the August 25 order that gave physical custody of Shamema
to plaintiff effective September 7 and left physical custody either
with the Roberts after that date, or with the Amherst Count Department
of Social Services "with leave to place the child with any suitable
persons, including Charles a Shelby Roberts." Plaintiff might not have
been aware this order, but he should have known that depriving the
Roberts of visitation rights after that date was a violation of the
April 2 order. He also should have known that the April 2 order, still
in effect as of August 25, 1986, prohibited the removal of Shamema
from the Commonwealth of Virginia without a court order. Plaintiff's
act of removing Shamema from Virginia clearly in violation of court
order, and the Roberts were thus properly authorized by the court to
seek to regain physical custody of her abroad. Upon Shamema's return
to the United States, the Amherst County Juvenile a Relations Court
had continuing jurisdiction over the custody dispute despite her four-
year absence; plaintiff could not use his unlawful removal of Shamema
from Virginia as a basis of stripping a Virginia court jurisdiction.

Care to repeat every campaign promise you ever made?
The issues you brought up in previous campaigns (that I recall)
were:
Drug Testing
USCF Sales/Business
Games Parlor
FIDE Team
Membership Dues
Larry Evans Firing
Certified Chess Teachers
One Million Scholastic Members
Crossville Move
In your last campaign statement, you mentioned:
"The two million dollars that used to be in the LMA Fund no longer exists."
This was not listed in your "What I will do, if elected" part of
your statement. You never 'promised' to do anything about it.
I'm more interested in your other promises. Instead of digging in the
dirt of past dealings, I'd like to see EB members focus on the future.
Accompish something positive, Sam, if you can.

| I can't. I don't know how. I'm not good at doing positive things. My=20
thing is to dig for dirt. I was elected for this by Mr. Leroy Dubeck.=20
I got rid of Tanner. Isn't that enough to get me another 4 years?

They can't make me disclose it. It's against my right.

| LOOK TO THE FUTURE
<Instead of digging in the dirt of past dealings, I'd like to see EB
members
focus on the future.> -- Chess Freak
There we have it: the official party line.
Don't delve into dirty deals in the past.
Look to the future.
That has always been the official line. Okay,
our hand is in the till. Okay, our financial
statements are wrong. Okay, the building in
Cross-to-Bear may actually be a debit rather than an
asset. Okay, we line our pockets.
But if you delve into all of those dirty deals,
then we won't be able to continue our ways in the
future. So just look to the future, and forget what
we did in the past and are doing at this very moment.
To ensure that the future will be as dirty as
the past, the best method is to look into the future
without cleaning the USCF Augean stable.
Yours, Larry Parr

| Sam Sloan asked me STALK Charles and Shelbey Roberts in 1997 from
Lynchbrug. After Sloan got out of JAIL, he continuted to harass the
people who he kidnaped his own child from.
Sam Sloan sent me e-mail offering me money to give him reports on the
people who "stole" his daughter.
I want to know if this is all a family affair, why didn Sloan keep on
wanting to start troube AFTER he got out of prision?

Don't learn from history, blunder ahead, er, but walking backwards, chanting
non-stop one's 'achievements'?

Hamiltonian! But that's a jibe.

What does seem true is that USCF's begging bowl so often seems like a
colander. Not just to me, but to all sponsors these past 10 years.
What is in particualr question for me, is if the somewhat indiscriminate
approach of Sam Sloan's investigation do not uproot as much good will
planted for the future, as it does sad sickly stalks, poking out of the sand
pretending they are camelias. Sam Sloan has made himself scarce in response
to my 'threat' to interview him.
I have some specific reservations about Sam Sloan completely independent of
the sort of self-mockery practised here by projectionists of their own
estate, to which they possess no irony, as any C15th witch hunter.
To be fair to Sloan, if only int he sense that my criticism is general, I
have the same objections about orientations of others too. The more I ask,
eg, about the principal of allowing offended constituencies to speak their
mind and suggest remedies, the more deafening the silence. No one, it seems,
wants to hear about it.
OTOH - it is a mess out there! If anyone wanted to know what death was like
they should either:-
a) consider the informed commentary of the group of genius-level people
running the federation at the moment, or
b) go to Des Moines, Iowa.

Yes. To offer another criticism, much as I asked George John when he was
here and prosing about 'transparency' in governance, I should like to ask
Candidate Randy Bauer who also perceives the need for competencies and
accountability, HOW will he achieve that?
But as with Sloan, the 'how' of that is confabulated with other factors
which limit - often severely - their scope. Sloan is in some danger of
adopting the 'Alexander solution' to the Gordian knot, which is to say, to
simply chose a more conscious form of severance from this life.

Are you suggesting that you have tried but have not been able to
interview me? That is not true at all. My number is 917-507-7226. You
may call me any time.

Chessville's interviews are always conducted in writing by first posing
questions and then receiving answers to them, and are 'on the record' in the
'hand' of the participant, as may be proven by server records. There are no
exceptions, since otherwise legal confusions of misrepresentation and
interpretation can arise. This, Sir, is the proper way to do it.
Initially I asked both new board members if they should like to answer the
same questions, but I think the other person is himself embroiled in a CJA
ethics mess and unresponsive - and lacking normal responses, I abandoned the
issue.
In terms of reader interest, questions to both candidates would be more
interesting. I am not chasinig either person - since it seems more a propos
to interview the 4 new candidates for the board on a range of questions
which I already determined they would address.
It takes time and energy to conduct a proper interview, and while I take the
lead there is usually an editorial level of determining questions. Should an
interviewee be serious, then the process can be started, otherwise, you
know, if you ain't interested neither am I.
To the real Sam Sloan: - I would perforce have to ask you questions which
your critics ask and which may be uncomfortable to you. I can frame these
questions rather better than your critics, and so this prospect would be a
real challenge to accept.
Most interviews cover a range of history of people's lives in chess, and
also current events - to provide a context to current orientations.
