State Police asked to investigate RI Child Support Enforcement

(Warwick, RI, USA) This month is Child Support Awareness Month, and Jojo Gator, the
man who nearly sold his family on EBAY earlier this year has filed a complaint with
the RI State Police that include charges of abuse of power, fraud and conspiracy by
Rhode Island CSE (Child Support Enforcement).
Gator, whose "Family for Sale on EBAY" attempt drew worldwide attention claims CSE
has targeted him.

"This is not an isolated incident, this is a pattern of abuse that an attorney I
consulted says may border on a RICO claim," Joseph Rainone, aka Jojo Gator told
reporters today. "I\'m not alone, people from the Hispanic community have told me of
similar issues with CSE."

"They suspended my license again and again without notice or due process" Gator said
today. "I went to the ACI over a weekend for doing nothing wrong while they ignored
their error. How do they make a $45,000 clerical error, suspend someone\'s license
without notice, send someone to the ACI, and then punish someone further who brings
that mistake to their attention?"

"Not only did they fail to correct their mistakes over a five year period, but CSE
employee Charlie Anthony tried to send a Sheriff with instructions to embarrass my
family by serving me with a moot court document on national television, and we have
witnesses," Gator said.

"When a mistake was pointed out to CSE Attorney Mary Donnelly, she stated in open
court that she was going to call SSI (who was considering my disability claim) and
inform them that I could work due to the EBAY story." "A provision had been written
into the Ebay agreement for replacing myself or others," Gator responded, "and I
don\'t know if she called them or not."

"Rhode Island is the host state for the Child Support Lien Network (CSLN) which
clandestinely obtains personal information on people they target from insurance
companies and more in member states around the country and then shares that
information to inflict punishment or support their collection efforts, right or
wrong. If they can\'t keep their accounts straight or monitor their people how can
they be a model?"

"I know for a fact that my ex-wife has not received cash benefits from CSE while I
was paying child support. Where does the money go?"

Gator said he was forced to hire an attorney, and retained Attorney Richard Merola
of Providence who cleared up this ongoing legal matter, which was dismissed by Judge
DiMuro on Friday.

Gator said he plans to file a civil case against the Rhode Island Division of
Taxation, Child Support Enforcement and would be reviewing the possibility of filing
a Federal complaint against the division and CSLN members.
