Carla Schulz, Official Court Reporter for Power Mad Lunatic Darci J. Benz:

Wow unsolicited legal advice from the Official Court Reporter for the Power Mad Lunatic Darci J. Benz? Are you going to give me legal advice on my time limits to file my appeal? You were hired to do an appeals transcript. And I am paying for an appeals transcript. And I expect the final product to be an appeals transcript. You are capable of reading and comprehending simple English, aren't you? If you work out of the courthouse, then why wasn't I provided with a written receipt for my $1530.00 last week? Who in their right mind gives any business $1530.00 and doesn't expect a written receipt? All you are doing is trying to provoke an incident with me. I have plenty of transcripts where your power mad lunatic of a boss is doing the exact same thing! I will be there tomorrow and I expect a receipt for $1530.00 and a notation for an appeals transcript. Were you typing on your computer or were you sleeping when your power mad lunatic boss was unduly influencing the jury by falsely claiming to the jury that it was mere speculation that your power mad lunatic boss lied not once, not twice but three times on the official record about not knowing Trudy Miller? And exactly to whom did you report this? Or when your power mad lunatic boss ordered court security to steal my legal papers did you report that? To whom did you report that incident? Did it make it into the official record or are you busy sanitizing the record?

THE COURT: A Trudy Miller does not work for me. I do not know who that person is.
MS. ALLEN: She works in the Jackson Court system here.
THE COURT: Where does she work?
MS. ALLEN: In the administrative part.
THE COURT: Which part? There's different --
MS. ALLEN: I can see her pic --
THE COURT: There's different offices and --
MS. ALLEN: I see her picture on the Jackson County Court, um, system on the website.
So, that would need to be looked into.
THE COURT: Okay, Miss Allen, I do not know who Trudy Miller is. Sometimes the -- the courthouse contains both, uh, judicial branch employees and county employees. So, is Miss Miller a judicial branch state employee or a county employee? Do you know? …
THE COURT: Regarding the conflict of interest, again, I do not know who Trudy Miller is. There is not a Trudy Miller who works directly under my supervision. So, I do not find that there is a conflict of interest for me to continue on this case, um, and I will not recuse myself

Kristi Meyeraan, Jackson County Attorney 507-847-2850:

First of all, why do documents keep showing up in 32-CR-25-111 saying "County of Cottonwood"? Are you drunk, high on drugs or suffering from a stroke? Second, who actually owned Bella? Was Bella's owner John Miller or Trudy Miller? Why do I ask? It would appear that your quack Maria Sjodin, DVM illegally released Bella's vet record to Trudy Miller when she claimed that she was Bella's original owner. In what alternate universe can a vet release patient records to a former owner?
Is this how Trudy Miller illegally obtained Bella records from that quack Mickaela Newman, DVM fka Mickaela Zook, DVM? And according to the incident report John Miller is both the complainant and the owner of Bella.
According to the amended witness list John Miller is not going to testify. So how is the sham still going on if the complainant is not going to testify?
For some strange reason I thought Trudy Miller was the complainant. Can you see how this is so confusing? Third, according to the incident report my false accuser Trudy Miller brought vet notes from the quack Mickaela Newman, DVM fka Mickaela Zook, DVM to your incompetent deputy Behr. How are either one of these false accusers going to either establish a foundation for the quack's notes or authenticate the quack's note's when the quack Newman is not going to testify?

Fourth, how is it possible that your quack Maria Sjodin, DVM is claiming that she didn't get my email entitled "Questions for Witness: Maria Sjodin, DVM – 32-CR-25-111" that I emailed to the quack [email protected] on Monday, September 7, 2026 at 12:06 PM when your office confirmed receipt of a copy of my email? I need answers to all these questions immediately!

Joint POST complaint with Amy Allen and Brian Wendelsdorf
08-25-26 Recorded Conversation of Amy Allen With Sheriff Randy McCullough. Bizarre claims that a criminal investigation was ongoing on 03-17-25 when records indicate the false police filed by Trudy Miller did not occur until 03-18-25. Bizarre claims that no evidence of animal abuse in Oklahoma when the quack’s notes indicate a severely dehydrated Bella, a hard keeper, on 03-17-25.
08-27-26 Recorded phone call to Assistant Attorney General Sandra LaVenue asking why OK State Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners Executive Director Cathy Kirkpatrick and Chief Investigator Brian Veazey have not fulfilled Amy Allen’s repeated requests for a personnel complaint form.

06-10-26 Special Assistant Jackson County Attorney Maryellen Suhrhoff falsely claimed that she was only just recently made aware that the John Walter Miller’s 05-28-25 audio statement had been destroyed on 05-28-25 and Suhrhoff only knew about the destruction only after Amy notified her on the official court record on 06-10-26. Judicial Officer Darci “Kangaroo Court” Bentz forced to admit that she had lied three (3) times on the court record about not knowing Trudy Miller. Bentz admitted Trudy Miller worked at Jackson County Probation. The nonprofit Family Service Network, which is a creation of Jackson County, arranged Professional Service Agreements for Trudy Miller to work for Jackson County Court Services and the Jackson County Attorney’s Office. Which proves a conflict of interest for the Jackson County Sheriff’s office to investigate Trudy Miller’s false police report.

03-18-25 Trudy Miller files a false police report in Jackson County, MN using the quack Zook’s notes (Now Michaela Newman)
04-21-25 JCSO Deputy Behr takes a false statement aka false police report from the quack Dr. Zook (Now Michaela Newman).
05-28-25 JCSO Deputy Jordan Behr takes witness statement from John Walter Miller. “Please see audio of John's statement attached to this case.”
06-17-26 Recorded phone conversation with Oklahoma Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners’ Chief Investigator Brian Veazey. See Exhibit I. Crazy claims that Quack Zook complied with 21-1680.3 by making a statement to JCSO on 04-21-25 when statute says mandated report to WCSO required within 24 hours of 03-17-25 exam of Bell, the hard keeper. Veazey’s bizarre and inherently incredible conclusions defied logic, space, time, reality and the facts.
07-25-25 Complainant Chief Deputy and trained observer Kelly Mitchell Badge 38 and trained observer and Special Assistant Jackson County Attorney Maryellen Suhrhoff failed to notice that the 05-28-25 of John Walter Miller was destroyed on 07-25-25.

However, there is no indication that either the quack Dr. Zook or the Board provided that written statement to either the Woods County Sheriff’s Office, the Woods County District Attorney’s Office, the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office or the Jackson County Attorney’s Office. I certainly have not received that written statement as part of the discovery process for rigged case 32-CR-25-111
I have reason to suspect that the real reason that written statement hasn’t been distributed to law enforcement is because the quack was forced to fill on all sorts of holes in her sub- standard examination and her substandard notes. For example did the quack obtain a written authorization from Bella’s owner, John Miller, to release Bella’s medical records to the animal abusers the Argents or the false accuser Trudy Miller? I think it is safe to say that I had more intelligent and substantive questions for both the quack Dr. Zook and JCSO deputy Behr than either trained observers McCullough or Veazey could ever come up with. See Exhibits F & G.
Your detailed letter in which you explain in depth your rationale for not bringing charges would be an invaluable exhibit to attach to any future complaints filed with the Oklahoma Council on Law Enforcement Education & Training and the Oklahoma Attorney General’s office. I’ve created a timeline to assist you in the creation of your declination letter.
Timeline For Bella The Hard Keeper Case
12-07-25 Bella, the hard keeper, is delivered to Amy Allen at Mello-d Ranch Pet Boarding in
Alpha MN by Harold Miller. Amy takes pictures of Bella. (Note: No witness statement from first-hand witness Howard Miller by JCSO Deputy Behr. Howard not on Prosecution's Witness List. See Exhibit E) Apparently Harold Miller did not want to aid and abet his wife, Trudy Miler,

No indication in notes that the quack Dr. Zook contacted Woods County Sheriff or District Attorney or Jackson County Sheriff or Jackson County Attorney on what to do with Bella’s carcass. No indication in notes that the Argents aka animal abusers or Trudy Miller were provided with a copy of the quack Dr. Zook’s notes.
