Addisu Legesse canceled his meeting at the Ethiopian embassy in Washington DC today after only 4 people showed up to listen to him. There were hundreds of Ethiopians outside the embassy waiting to confront him about his crimes against the people of Ethiopia. Addisu's trip to the USA has turned out to be a public relations disaster. It showed to the world that his regime has been totally rejected by the people of Ethiopia ... ER Sep 2

ER has been informed that terrorist Addisu Legesse will hold a meeting at the Ethiopian embassy in Washington DC tomorrow, Saturday, starting at 12 noon. A protest is being organized to confront him.

The effort to bring Addisu Legesse to justice using the U.S. laws reached a dead end for now. ER has been able to identify at least two of Addisu Legesse's victims who have a green card at the time they were victimized. But the FBI agent who has been assigned this case did not come to the office today and we are told to wait until Tuesday when he comes back after the Labor Day weekend.

The effort through the U.S. legal system should continue. There could be more options there to seek justice for the victims of Meles/Addisu. A lawyer informed ER today that for example the family of Dr Yacob Hailemariam, who has a green card, can file a civil law suit against Meles and Addisu for illegally detaining him. A sympathetic jury can decide in favor of Dr Yacob... ER Sep 1

ER held discussions yesterday afternoon with agents from the FBI Washington DC office. The agents said that unless Addisu Legesse's victims are either American citizens or have permanent U.S. resident status at the time of the crime, the FBI doesn't have a jurisdiction to do any thing. So is the U.S. law allows a murderer to roam freely in the United States unless his victims are U.S. citizens or green card holders? This doesn't sound right. Any way, we will continue to communicate with the FBI agents, and if we find that any of Addisu Legesse's victims have a U.S. citizenship or resident status, we can nail him when he arrives in Washington DC today. The latest information we have is that he has scheduled a meeting at the Ethiopian embassy Saturday afternoon. The meeting in Ohio yesterday was canceled when no body except protestors showed up...
