    <p>I have stated on numerous occasions that my investigation into the complaints 
      filed by Mrs. Katherine Mangsen, wife of Kurt Mangsen (president, Nordgren 
      Memorial Chapel in Worcester, Massachusetts) and the subsequent actions 
      of the State Board, its employees and investigator, and now the Division 
      of Professional Licensure paint a clear picture of a <em>conspiracy, corruption, 
      gross incompetence, and cover-up</em> not seen (or made public) in recent 
      times. The aforementioned parties have done everything possible to keep 
      the truth from being told, from denying the introduction of evidence which 
      clearly defines the conspiracy and corruption, and from the fact that the 
      Administrative Hearings Counsel has denied just about every request I have 
      made to introduce the facts and to present the truth in this matter to include 
      her denial to enter and allow me to play the audio tape of the December 
      9, 2003 meeting of the State Board where the conspiracy began to unravel.</p>
    <p>On February 25, 2005, more than 14 months after the December 9, 2003 meeting, 
      Attorney Daniel Flynn (my attorney at the time) forwarded the following 
      letter to Leslie D. Alexander, Esq., prosecuting counsel for the Division 
      of Professional Licensure. <em>(Please take a moment to read this letter 
      &#8211; for it tells volumes about Mr. Kazlauskas, Chairman of the State 
      Board on December 9, 2003 and the process that has been followed to date)</em>.

      <p> <strong>*</strong> February 28, 2005 letter from Attorney Alexander 
        to Attorney Flynn <a href="/documents/Feb-28-05-Alexander.pdf">[Feb-25-05-Alexander.pdf]</a></p>
	</div>
    <p>Paragraph 4. of the February 28, 2005 letter from Atty. Alexander to Atty. 
      Flynn reads as follows &#8211; </p>
    <p><em>&#8220;Regarding the issue raised in your letter dated February 25, 
      2005, John Kazlauskas is currently unable to serve on the Board due to serious 
      illness. Moreover, Mr. Kazlauskas indicated his willingness to recuse himself 
      in this matter anyway. Thus, this issue is moot.&#8221;</em></p>
    <p>Atty. Alexander, <strong>&#8220;I don&#8217;t think so!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!&#8221;</strong></p>
    <p>Like just about every other request I have made to the Administrative Hearings 
      Counsel, (Ms. Colleton), and the prosecution attorneys Mr. Read and Ms. 
      Alexander), my request to have these letters entered into the record at 
      the Administrative Hearing were flatly denied.</p>
    <p>It has become abundantly clear to me and the statement was made to me by 
      Atty. Read (after the abrupt cancellation at 10:30AM on June 27, 2006 of 
      the scheduled Administrative Hearing with defense witnesses already in transit 
      to Boston) that it is his role to see to it that I (Philip G. Haddad, Jr.) 
      have my funeral directors license suspended and that I do not now or ever 
      practice as a funeral director again in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. 
      No one &#8211; the Administrative Hearings Counsel, the members of the State 
      Board, the employees and investigator for the State Board, or those involved 
      at the Division of Professional Licensure &#8211; care about the truth, 
      the facts, or justice being served. Their ONLY concern is convicting me 
      of something even if it has to be drummed up, fabricated, or blatant lies 
      perpetuated by funeral directors that have everything to gain by my not 
      being allowed to practice as a funeral director in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. 
    </p>
    <p><strong>&#8220;Why would they do this, you ask?&#8221;</strong> Simply 
      put &#8211; the State Board accepted statements from its Chairperson as 
      fact without verifying their accuracy. The State Board&#8217;s investigator 
      took the word of its Chairperson and formulated a plan to get to me with 
      the assistance of Mrs. Mangsen and Nordgren Memorial Chapel without benefit 
      of verifying the facts before arriving at and drawing conclusions. Defense 
      witness after defense witness have carved up Mr. and Mrs. Mangsen&#8217;s 
      statements and statements made by Nordgren&#8217;s attorney to the State 
      Board and their statements under oath as blatant lies. And now you have 
      a State Board of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the Division of Professional 
      Licensure struggling to justify spending more than $1M over the past 2 years 
      and 8 months on a &#8220;dreamt up WITCH HUNT of enormous proportions&#8221;, 
      violating every rule and regulation in the process from not responding to 
      requests for information dating back to more than 2 years; to intentionally 
      providing untimely, inaccurate, and incomplete information when doing so 
      &#8211; all because they trusted information provided to them and did not 
      investigate and document the accuracy of the information provided before 
      accepting it as factual. </p>
    <p>I had the occasion to be in the Southwestern area of the country from July 
      24&#8212;27, 2006. Approximately 2 weeks before departing I forwarded an 
      audio taped copy of the December 9, 2003 Meeting of the State Board, wherein 
      Mr. Kazlauskas authored several vicious statements defaming me personally 
      and professionally in an open public meeting of the State Board of Registration 
      of Funeral Directors and Embalmers, to an interested party to whom I have 
      referred in past updates. He was to give the audio tape to a psychologist 
      at a well known university with more than 20 years of research and experience 
      in the field of &#8220;lies&#8221; and &#8220;deceptive behavior&#8221;. 
      I was fortunate to be able to speak with this gentleman on a conference 
      call during my recent trip, and I shall share with you his observations, 
      comments, statements, and concerns; especially in light of the fact that 
      the audio tape of the December 9, 2003 Meeting of the State Board was not 
      being allowed to be played during the Administrative Hearing, in a future 
      update. </p>
    <p>What I will share with you now was his comment &#8211; </p>
    <p> <em><strong>&#8220;The Administrative Hearing Process, from what I can 
      see and what I have read - is a &#8220;Farce!&#8221; &#8220;Is Mitt Romney 
      aware of this?&#8221;</strong></em></p>
    <p>Within the next few days, I will have in my possession the authentic testimony 
      of ten (10) defense witnesses that were gracious enough to appear to testify 
      after having received four (4) subpoenas dating back to January 10, 2006 
      &#8211; each time being notified at the last possible minute that their 
      testimony would not be taken until a later date - to be determined. <strong><em>&#8220;Cruel 
      and unusual punishment &#8211; you bet it was!&#8221;</em></strong> The 
      statements made in the complaints filed with the State Board under penalties 
      of perjury by Mrs. Mangsen and collaborated by its investigator, John Bresnahan, 
      and four funeral directors from Central Massachusetts along with the testimony 
      of the defense witnesses referenced in the complaints will be presented 
      in updates soon to be presented on this web site. It is time for each of 
      you who have waited patiently to learn the facts and to have the opportunity 
      to dispel the rumors and statements of those directly involved in the conspiracy 
      to have the truth backed up by the facts available to you. You will have 
      the opportunity, not only to finally know the truth and the facts, but to 
      ask the parties who have testified for the prosecution as well as for the 
      defense, to tell you in their own words how they were either influenced 
      to lie and distort the facts (in the case of the prosecution witnesses) 
      and how painful the lies and distortions have been for the defense witnesses 
      that have had to come forward and re-live the loss of a loved one because 
      of the lack of integrity of the complainants, investigator, and funeral 
      directors in these matters.</p>
    <p>I have been encouraged to provide updates twice weekly; as I now have all 
      the information, data, correspondence, testimony, and experts reviewing 
      the process and procedures that have been followed. I have not elected to 
      do so at this time, for I have expended in excess of $400K+ in the past 
      2 years and 8 months to get to the core of this vicious &#8220;witch hunt&#8221; 
      and attempt at &#8220;character assassination&#8221;, as well as precious 
      time upon which I could not even attempt to put a price on. Suffice it to 
      say, that these updates (100% accurate and supported by the facts) take 
      an exorbitant amount of my personal time and that of the dedicated web site 
      technicians in order to maintain an accurate accounting of the chronology 
      of the process.</p>
    <p>At this point, our research indicates that <strong>www.justiceatwhatprice.com</strong> 
      is regularly reviewed by more than 1100 funeral directors throughout the 
      country &#8211; many of whom contact me on a regular basis looking for additional 
      information and more frequent updates. Many have indicated that the character 
      assassination attempt directed at me could easily have been directed to 
      anyone of them in the business, and that corruption of this nature MUST 
      be stopped in its tracks. </p>
    <p>We shall soon see!<br>
