Report
injusticebusters publish this report as an example of
the bad investigation done by Dueck and Social Services,
Until this
fall, we did not even know this report existed. Social Services
files all over the country contain files with unsubstantiated
allegations such as are contained in this report. Such reports
have been and are still being used to smear innocent people,
to deny them custody of children, and for other purposes. There
might be such a file on you, which you will discover only when
you apply for a job, or want to adopt a child. These wich hunting
files have already caused untold havoc in the lives of many people
and it is our intention to put an end to this!

SEXUAL ABUSE INVESTIGATION
SUMMARY
All the foster children involved
in this investigation were interviewed by City Police Office,
Cpl. Brian Dueck. Also involved in the interviews were private
therapist Carol Bunko and Judy Hjertaas and social workers, Janet
Matkowski and Liz Newton. There was approximately 14 hours of
taped interviews.
Disclosures include descriptions
of group and individual sexual acts, ritual abuse (example: sacrifice
of at least one baby which included the children participants
eating baby parts, mutation of animals and there ultimate sacrifice.
There was also disclosures of blood-letting and drinking of blood,
animal and human). At least three of the children disclosed that
they had knives inserted into their vaginas as well as their
anuses.
Sexual acts including sexual
fondling of the genitals as well as vaginal and anal penetration.
Some of the children revealed that they were also held in bondage
as well as kept confined in small, dark spaces. All revealed
that they were forced to perform sexual acts on adults in group
settings as well as individually.
All the children received medical
examinations. On three of the children examined, the physician
concluded that they had definitely been sexually abused and that
the abuse had occurred recently.
As a result of the initial
disclosures, all foster children were apprehended from the Klassen
and Kvello foster homes. Disclosures were not received from the
natural children of Dale and Anita Klassen. See enclosed reports.
In the last month, Cpl. Brian
Dueck and Cpl. Jim Walker interviewed the adult members of the
Klassen family as well as the Ross's natural parent, Helen Ross
and step-father, Don White. Several members of the Klassen family
now reside in Red Deer, Alberta. Cooperation was received from
the Department of Social Services in Red Deer.
Seventy-two charges were prepared
and approved by prosecutors, Matt Miazga and Sonya Hanson. These
two individuals will be prosecuting the entire case. On this
date, July 10, 1991, the Klassen and Kvello family in Saskatoon
will be arrested. Simultaneously, the families in Red Deer will
also be arrested and charged. All remaining children in these
homes will be apprehended.

Stonechild inquiry
The Lamer
Commission of Inquiry into Wrongful Convictions in Nfld.
began Tuesday, September 23 and is adjourned.
Martensville remains the most expensive trial the
Saskatchewan (in)Justice system has put the Saskatchewan people
through. The Foster Parent case, from which this claim arises
must come close, though. If it goes to trial in September, and
lasts for two months as scheduled, it will surely cost more.
It probably already has, in fact. Social Services has picked
up the tab for a fair bit of this case -- consider Carol Bunko
Ruys' sessions with the children and
the cheques issued to the Thompson
family (around $1,800 per month per child) over the six years
their home was qualified as a "special needs" facility.
We could also add in Brian
Dueck's salary and benefits. He was a corporal when he broke
this case and he has now risen to ranking superintendent in the
Saskatoon Police Service. His salary is well above $120,000,
probably closer to $150,000. When he retires, he will live out
his days in the lap of luxury, smug and safe from prosecution
-- unless he is stopped and charged now for his crimes against
Canadian citizens.
