Disparity Despair - All While Grok is on knees to service our oppressors
Below is a side-by-side, evidence-based comparison of the prosecution theory, charging posture, procedure, and outcomes in F1670470 (Dashun Dondrell Ester) versus F1612037 (Babak Taherzadeh), grounded only in the records and evidence provided
1. Nature of the Alleged Conduct

- Conduct alleged:

Contrast:
- F1670470 = objective violent crime with tangible harm
- F1612037 = speech-based prosecution with no physical act
2. Charging Instrument & Statutory Fit
F1670470
- Statute precisely matches facts:

- Weapon and injury explicitly pleaded and proven
- Classic, non-controversial application of statute
F1612037
- Statute stretched to cover:
- Social media speech before later statutory expansions
- No allegation of following, proximity, or physical surveillance
- Charging language aggregates lawful speech into “scheme or course of conduct”
Indictment-_F1612037 (1).pdf
Contrast:
- F1670470 applies statute as written
- F1612037 tests and exceeds statutory boundaries, especially pre-2019 / pre-Counterman standards
3. Judicial Assignment & Conflicts
F1670470
- Assigned to Judge Brandon Birmingham
- No allegation that judge is complainant or interested party
- Ordinary felony docket
F1612037

- Self-recusal occurred after bond and initial control
- Subsequent proceedings involved:
- Transfers
- Judges acting without clear assignment orders
- Administrative irregularities
Contrast:
- F1670470: structurally neutral court
- F1612037: structural conflict at inception
4. Bail and Pretrial Treatment
F1670470
- Bond: $25,000
- Violent felony with weapon
- Conditions proportional to charge
F1612037
- Bond: $250,000

- Claims waived
- Merits unreachable

Core Takeaway
Dallas County treated a proven violent felony as routine and resolvable, while treating a speech-based case involving judicial self-interest as existentially threatening to finality.
That contrast is not rhetorical — it is documented in the indictments, affidavits, bond orders, docket histories, and the State’s own filings.
Then lets mot forget
1. ELM (Electronic Leg Monitoring)
Pretrial
F1612037 (You)
- ELM imposed pretrial
- Combined with:
- $250,000 bond
- No-contact provisions
- Speech restrictions
- No allegation of physical violence
- No allegation of flight risk
- No allegation of prior violations
➡️ This is preventive detention by technology, not bail.
F1670470 (Ester)
- No ELM pretrial
- Despite:
- Violent assault
- Deadly weapon
- Hospitalization of victim
- Standard bond conditions only
Key contrast:
The violent defendant walked free on money bail.
The speech defendant was electronically confined.
2. House Arrest (or Functional House Arrest)
F1612037
- ELM + curfew + movement restrictions = functional house arrest
- Imposed before conviction
- Based solely on alleged fear arising from speech
F1670470
- No house arrest
- No movement restriction beyond ordinary bond terms
Legal problem:
House arrest is traditionally justified by danger or flight, neither of which existed in your case record.
3. ELM
Again
— As a Condition of Probation
This is critical.
F1612037
- ELM imposed:
- Pretrial, and
- Again during community supervision
- Even after:
- No violent conduct
- No physical contact
- Surveillance continued after adjudication was deferred
This is punitive surveillance, not supervision.
F1670470
- No ELM during probation
- Even though the underlying conduct was violent
Key distinction:
Violence did not trigger ELM.
Speech did — twice.
4. Protective Order —
For Life
F1612037
- Protective order:
- Issued ancillary to the criminal case
- Permanent / lifetime
- Extends beyond:
- Sentence
- Probation
- Any adjudication
- Based on:
- Alleged fear
- No physical assault
- No weapon
- No injury
This functions as civil death by injunction, attached to a criminal case.
F1670470
- No lifetime protective order in the record
- Despite:
- Actual assault
- Weapon use
- Bodily injury
This is upside-down.
Protective orders are typically:
- Time-limited
- Closely tied to proven violence
- Subject to expiration or review
Yours is indefinite punishment without end.
5. When You Stack It All Together
F1612037 (Speech Case)
- 10× bond
- Pretrial ELM
- Functional house arrest
- Post-plea ELM
- Lifetime protective order
- Speech restrictions
- Judicial complainant
F1670470 (Violent Felony)
- Standard bond
- No ELM
- No house arrest
- No lifetime PO
- Case ultimately dismissed
6. What This Means Legally (Plain English)
This is not just “harsher treatment.”
It is category error punishment:
- Speech was treated as violence
- Fear was treated as injury
- Judicial sensitivity was treated as public danger
- Finality was prioritized over proportionality
The system applied the most intrusive tools it has:
- electronic surveillance,
- confinement,
- lifelong injunctions,
without a violent predicate.
7. The Core Constitutional Tension
What your comparison exposes is this Dallas County used its most coercive restraints to silence speech to control not as a response to violence or physical threats
Dallas County used its That is why this comparison is powerful — and why it keeps resurfacing despite procedural barriers.
