Who Exactly Is James Eric Fuller?
gregwhoward.com ^ | 1-18-11 | Greg Howard

(Investigative team notes: Heavy reliance on the contributions of @mikesus, @themick1962, @bobbi85710, @JoAnneMoretti, @arlenearmy, all of whom contributed significant pieces of the trail of internet bread crumbs to bring this story to light.)

The media frenzy over the shooting on January 8, 2011, in Arizona by Jared Lee Loughner of nearly two dozen people, including the wounding of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-AZ) and the assassination of U.S. District Judge John Roll refuses to die down. The act was clearly that of a young man with a deranged mind.

It took only minutes before the acts were blamed on  Tea Party, veterans, and eventually that most dangerous weapon of all, rhetoric. The feeding frenzy grew in fever and pitch, eventually leading to the scapegoating of noted conservative leaders, including the left’s target du jour, Sarah Palin.

Emerging from this is a new “victim” over which the mainstream media is fawning, namely James Eric Fuller.

One of Loughner’s alleged victims, James Eric Fuller, went on to claim notoriety for himself on Saturday, January 15, 2011, by appearing at a town hall meeting and getting arrested for threats and intimidation.  This alone is a very interesting turn of events in the story line that hate-filled rhetoric led to Loughner’s actions. It would end here if the media and their willing mouthpieces on the left in social media had not moved immediately to excuse Fuller’s actions on the grounds of post traumatic stress disorder and other similar, nebulous grounds.

On Monday, January 17, 2011, the media moved into full fawning mode over James Eric Fuller, reporting that he had apologized for his threats at the town hall meeting. Again, the social media left whipped themselves into a frenzy, “What a man!” “See how much better we are!”

Okay, so exactly who is James Eric Fuller? What has the press looked into with this man who has foisted himself to the national spotlight so deliberately?

A quick check of court records in Pima County, Arizona, reveals that on November 24, 1997, a man by the name of Prince Eric Fuller legally changed his name to James Eric Fuller. The order was signed by Judge Lina Rodriguez under case number c323363. (View docket here.) From that point, the trail on James Eric Fuller goes cold, but the trail on Prince Eric Fuller picks up.

A simple web search for the name Prince Eric Fuller yields a huge surprise, readily available to anyone with a search engine. Before the U.S. Supreme Court a case was heard under Fuller v. Oregon, 417 U.S. 40 (1974). The case was brought by Prince Eric Fuller and involves whether or not an indigent person may be forced to pay court and other costs associated with their crime or whether the charging of such costs would violate equal protection tenets of the law. The appeal was lost, and SCOTUS affirmed that said costs could indeed be taxed to the person convicted. On its face, this appears to be a rather mundane ruling on constitutional issues.

That is, until one examines the underlying conviction: Sodomy in the Third Degree!

So, at the bottom of the pile, we find that the Prince Eric Fuller who fought the payment of costs all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court had pleaded guilty to a sexual offense. The sentence was probationary, work-release type thing so common in the past, and still too common today.

And now the only question remaining is: Is the James Eric Fuller who changed his name from Prince Eric Fuller the same person who pleaded guilty to this charge, only to become forever enshrined in the annals of American jurisprudence?

Let’s look at the remaining evidence, and the reader may draw their own conclusion.

We know from news accounts that Fuller is reported to be 63 years old. This is nearly every news account. And we do a bit more digging on the internet to see what else may turn up:

First we have his Facebook page. Of particular import is his list of friends. This information will again appear in subsequent links.

We have three Intelius reports showing name, age, and known relatives of James Eric Fuller and Prince Eric Fuller.

http://www.intelius.com/results.php?ReportType=1&qf=Prince&qmi=E&qn=Fuller&qs=AZ&searchform=name&trackit=74&focusfirst=0

Note the relatives for these individuals include one of the Facebook friends.

We have USSearch.com preliminary report showing Prince Eric Fuller with a number of aliases, all of which are related to the current name of James Eric Fuller.

http://www.ussearch.com/consumer/criminal-records/names/or/prince/fuller.html

We have Lexis records that list a DOB for a James Eric Fuller of Tucson with DOB of 5/1947 and a partial SSN.

We have Lexis records that list a DOB for Prince Eric Fuller of Portland with DOB of 5/1947 and a partial SSN matching the Lexis records from Arizona.

So, the question remains, just who exactly is this new media darling, and why haven’t they looked into his past?

The blogosphere is already doing what the media should have been doing.

We leave for your perusal this final piece, “Did Eric Bohlert Research James Eric Fuller Before Championing Him?”

The answer is obviously not. There is more yet to come.

No.

Nor is he an accomplice.

But It would be nice to know if he in fact is a victim of Loughners.

Whatever he may be guilty of, I can certainly understand him doing THAT.

No not a accomplice.

I would like to know if truly is a victim of loughners.

Stories base on his statements so far have him:

“taken to the hospital” and others that he “drove himself to the hospital”.

I have the links the the conflicting stories of his shooting.

Yes.

He stated:

James Eric Fuller, 63, who was shot in the knee, had told The Post on Friday, the day before his arrest, that top Republican figures should be tortured -- and their ears severed.

"There would be torture and then an ear necklace, with [Minnesota US Rep.] Michelle Bachmann and Sarah Palin's ears toward the end, because they're small, female ears, and then Limbaugh, Hannity and the biggest ears of all, Cheney's, in the center," Fuller said.

Also on Friday, Fuller stopped by the home of gunman Jared Lee Loughner and told a neighbor he was going to forgive the shooter, The Associated Press said.

From the Supreme Court link:

The petitioner Fuller pleaded guilty, on July 20, 1972, to an information charging him with sodomy in the third degree.

1 At the hearing on the plea and in other court proceedings he was represented by a local member of the bar appointed by the court upon the petitioner's representation that he was indigent and unable to hire a lawyer. Fuller's counsel in turn hired an investigator to aid in gathering facts for his defense, and the investigator's fees were also assumed by the State. Fuller was subsequently sentenced to five years of probation, conditioned upon his satisfactorily complying with the requirements of a work-release program at the county jail that would permit him to attend college, and also upon his reimbursement to the county of the fees and expenses of the attorney and investigator whose services had been provided him because of his indigent status.

On appeal to the Oregon Court of Appeals, his principal contention was that the State could not constitutionally condition his probation on the repayment of these expenses.2 With one judge dissenting, the imposition of his sentence was affirmed, 12 Or.App. 152, 504 P.2d 1393, and the Supreme Court of Oregon subsequently denied Fuller's petition for review. Because of the importance of the question presented and the conflict of opinion on the constitutional issue involved,3 we granted certiorari, 414 U.S. 1111, 94 S.Ct. 840, 38 L.Ed.2d 737.
