Why Eastern District of Michigan’s Clerk Richard Loury Must Be Locked Inside a Federal Prison

---

This is the simple, un-sanitized truth of what happened, the exact federal laws broken, and why Clerk Richard Loury must serve mandatory prison time.

Who Was Conrad Alan Rockenhaus?

To understand why federal officials targeted him, you first have to know who Conrad Rockenhaus was:

• A Decorated Veteran: Conrad Rockenhaus was a 100% service-connected disabled U.S. Navy combat veteran who suffered from a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and severe seizure disorders.
• A High-Level Tech Architect: Conrad worked as a network architect for the Naval Research Laboratory (NRO) and ran servers for global privacy systems.
• A Privacy Defender: Conrad operated major exit nodes for the Tor Network, a free, open-source privacy tool used by journalists, whistleblowers, and human rights activists worldwide to escape government censorship.

Because Conrad Rockenhaus refused to hand over private encryption keys to federal agents, federal prosecutors and probation officers spent years fabricating false criminal records, claiming standard graphics drivers were “dark web hacking software,” trapping him in the legal system, and ultimately killing him.

The Violent September 4, 2025 Raid: A Smashed Skull and a Phantom Warrant

On the morning of September 4, 2025, a U.S. Marshals tactical squad executed a violent breach on Adrienne Rockenhaus’s sanctuary home in Redford, Michigan.

Marshals smashed windows, held Adrienne at gunpoint, threatened to shoot her dog, and struck Conrad in the head. The physical assault smashed Conrad’s skull and inflicted an acute Traumatic Brain Injury in addition to the TBI he already had from service in combat. Just hours later, while standing in front of federal prosecutors in a Detroit courtroom, the untreated head trauma triggered a violent grand mal seizure that caused Conrad to collapse onto the floor. Conrad never received medical treatment for this injury. 

The entire raid was illegal from start to finish. On 4K security footage, lead U.S. Marshal Brett Fimbinger admitted on camera that his team had no physical arrest warrant for the property.

How Eastern District of Michigan Clerk Richard Loury Pulled the “He Has a Lawyer” Fraud

After the violent raid, Conrad Rockenhaus was thrown into a prison cell while suffering from uncontrolled seizures. His court-appointed defense attorney, Marc Lakin (P41147), completely abandoned him, refusing to file motions, or appear in court.

Conrad Rockenhaus had written pro se (self-represented) emergency notices firing attorney Lakin and begging for an emergency bond hearing to receive medical care.

This is where Detroit’s Clerk Richard Loury stepped in to execute the trap:

1. The “He Has a Lawyer” Lie: When emergency filings were submitted to the clerk’s desk, Loury personally pulled a fraudulent trick. He refused to docket or route the emergency medical motions to a judge, falsely claiming on the record that “the defendant already has a lawyer”, knowing full well the attorney had abandoned Conrad.
2. The One-Week Delay: After suppressing Conrad Rockenhaus’s medical emergency, clerk Richard Loury intentionally rescheduled and delayed the bond hearing by a full week.
3. The Result: An unrepresented, brain-injured veteran was trapped in solitary confinement (SHU) at FCI Milan without anti-seizure medication, directly causing his physical collapse and subsequent death.

PACER Doxing: How EDMI Clerk Richard Loury Tried to Get Adrienne Rockenhaus Murdered

On December 16 and 17, 2025, Adrienne Rockenhaus served explicit written notices directly on Clerk Loury, warning him that leaving her home address unredacted placed her life in immediate physical danger.

Loury intentionally refused to seal the files. For 48 hours, he left her exact sanctuary home address and Conrad’s private neurological medical files broadcasted live on public PACER servers.

The Specific Criminal Laws Clerk Richard Loury Broke:

• 18 U.S.C. § 2261A(2) (Federal Cyberstalking via Public Databases): Under federal law, intentionally using an electronic communication system (like PACER) to place a person in reasonable fear of death or serious bodily injury, or to facilitate harm, is a major federal felony carrying up to 20 years to LIFE in federal prison when harm or attempted death results.
• The “State-Created Danger” Doctrine (Fourteenth Amendment Violation): Under federal civil rights law, a public official violates an individual’s Substantive Due Process rights if they take an affirmative act that creates or significantly increases a unique, foreseeable danger to that person. When an official is explicitly warned of an acute threat to an individual’s safety but consciously disregards that warning, such as by affirmatively publishing or refusing to remove precise locator data on a public database, their deliberate indifference constitutes a “conscience-shocking” abuse of authority that strips them of official immunity.
  • Read how the U.S. Supreme Court established the boundaries for government liability and the roots of the state-created danger exceptions in DeShaney v. Winnebago County (1989).
  • The Data Disclosure Precedent: Review the benchmark ruling where an official’s disclosure of personal files and home addresses to a hostile group was held to violate Substantive Due Process in Kallstrom v. City of Columbus (6th Cir. 1998).
  • The Warning Disregard Precedent: Examine how exposing a citizen to a known, specific danger after being explicitly warned creates a constitutional violation in Kennedy v. City of Ridgefield (9th Cir. 2005).
  • The Deliberate Indifference Standard: Check the structural legal requirements used by federal courts to evaluate “conscience-shocking” conduct by public servants in the Third Circuit Court of Appeals Civil Rights Chapter 4 Guidelines.

Why Eastern District of Michigan Clerk Richard Loury Has ZERO Immunity:

In Antoine v. Byers & Anderson, Inc. (508 U.S. 429), the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that court clerks and administrative staff do not possess absolute immunity for administrative or ministerial functions. While absolute immunity protects judges during judicial acts, it does not extend to non-judicial administrative duties. Furthermore, under established federal civil rights standards, a public official has zero qualified immunity when they commit intentional, bad-faith acts, such as weaponizing public records to deliberately expose a targeted individual to physical harm. Because malicious retaliation and the intentional creation of a lethal danger violate clearly established constitutional rights, a clerk who knowingly acts to facilitate violence is stripped of all legal immunity.

Direct Court Receipts & Written Notice Proofs:

• Proof of Written Notice on Address Doxing (Rule 49.1 Privacy Demand): The actual time-stamped email serving Clerk Richard Loury with formal notice that unredacted home addresses on PACER created an active, physical safety threat, proving Loury had direct, written knowledge of the danger before intentionally refusing to seal the files.
• Follow-Up Life-Threatening Emergency Alert to Clerk Loury (FRCP 5.2(e) Demand): The urgent follow-up email serving Loury with direct notice that no action had been taken, attaching a doctor’s note, invoking FRCP 5.2(e) for ex parte interim relief, and explicitly warning him: “This is life-threatening, and the danger escalates every minute that you do not act.”
• Judge Murphy’s ECF Order Striking Conrad’s Motion for Compassionate Release (ECF No. 16 / ECF Nos. 44–46): The official court order exposing Judge Stephen J. Murphy III and Clerk Richard Loury’s depraved malice Catch-22 trap. After intentionally leaving Adrienne Rockenhaus’s private home address exposed on public PACER servers for 48 hours, placing her life in extreme physical danger. Judge Murphy then used the fact that her address was unsealed without a separate cover sheet under Local Rule 5.3(a)(1) as his twisted pretext to STRIKE Conrad’s entire Motion for Compassionate Release off the docket, wiping out his medical cry for help while leaving him to seize painfully without any medical care in solitary custody.

The Accomplices: Judge Stephen J. Murphy III and Kaycee Berente

Eastern District of Michigan’s Clerk Richard Loury did not act alone. He operated as part of a coordinated administrative team:

Chief Judge Stephen J. Murphy III

Murphy signed an order striking Conrad Rockenhaus’s handwritten emergency motions for Compassionate Release (ECF Nos. 44–46) begging for medical release. 

Judge Stephen J. Murphy III and Clerk Richard Loury intentionally sat on the filing for 48 hours, leaving Adrienne Rockenhaus’s private home address exposed live on PACER to hostile federal actors who had already attempted to kill her. Then, in an act of sociopathic sadism, Judge Stephen J. Murphy III used the presence of Adrienne Rockenhaus’s unsealed address as a hyper-technical excuse under Local Rule 5.3(a)(1) and FRCrimP 49.1 to STRIKE Conrad Rockenhaus’s entire compassionate release motion off the docket, wiping out his entire medical cry for help on this technicality.
