Narrative and History of Events

Sometime in the last year I Closed my USPS Post Office Box in Port Townsend Washington, PO Box 2087, I was assured that the box was closed and there was no need to do anything else. I was assured that First Class Mail, such as medical and legal documents, social services documents and all first class mail would be sent back to the sender, if they were to show up. And that no further action would be needed for this to happen.

Instead of closing my account, the USPS kept putting mail addressed to me in that mail box. The USPS gave my private affairs, my medical information protected under HIPAA, my Church private documents and personal matters to a third party, thereby violating my rights to privacy.

In approx. 2016 I lost my prior USPS box due to the inability to pay, and again was assured that ALL First Class Mail, such as medical and legal documents, social services documents, church matters, and all first class mail would be sent back to the sender. This box number was PO Box 2027 Port Townsend, WA 98368

On August 17th, 2022, Denis Stearns, @denisstearns posted the following on Twitter

“Stand With Ukraine @denisstearns
Replying to @ReverendCox @KnownHeretic
and @RevfoXXUS

“As someone who has TERF Cox's prior Post office box and still receives a LOT of correspondence from law firms and courts about her prior activities (not that I have ever opened any of the correspondence, which I dutifully give back to the postal employees), but yeah. Makes sense”

https://twitter.com/denisstearns/status/1560044433784983553

In order to know that the legal documents were of “prior activity” he would have first received my first class mail, then opened it and read it, then shared information about me to other, then post this on a high profile twitter account, linking to other high profile twitter account and defaming me, committing a Hate Crime calling a protected class “Lesbian” “Homosexual”, a Pastor, and the same address of my Church, a Washington State Non-Profit. Calling me TERF is violent rhetoric that instigated harm and hate towards me as a lesbian, as a pastor and as a director of a church.

I, Crystal L. Cox filed this complaint as a victim and Pro Se, and as a representative of a Washington State Non Profit Church Bringing Back Goddess Church. I ask that you apply all available laws to protect my rights. I move forward in pauperis as I am indigent and I request an attorney be appointed to me in this case, to preserve my rights.

I am filing this as an individual for a federal hate crime against a Protected class as a Lesbian Woman. I am filing this as a Pastor, protected under religious discrimination laws, and I am filing this as a Director of a Washington State Non-Profit Church as a Hate Crime against the Church. I allege this crime was committed with the enablement and co-conspiracy of the United States Post Office in Port Townsend Washington.

Laws I Allege that the USPS and Denis Stearn Violated

Federal Hate Crime, Mail Theft, Harassment, Publicly Sharing Private information with Malicious intent, Vulnerable Adult Mistreatments, Malicious Harassment, HIPAA Violations, Fraud, Theft, Psychological Harm, Washington State Hate Crime, the Intimidation Act,and details as follows.

I allege that the USPS and Port Townsend Resident Denis Stearn violated The Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act

The Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2009, 18 U.S.C. § 249. Says:

“The Shepard Byrd Act is the first statute allowing federal criminal prosecution of hate crimes motivated by the victim’s actual or perceived sexual orientation or gender identity. The Act makes it a federal crime to willfully cause bodily injury, or attempt to do so using a dangerous weapon, because of the victim’s actual or perceived race, color, religion, or national origin.

The Act also covers crimes committed because of the actual or perceived religion, national origin, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, or disability of any person, if the crime affected interstate or foreign commerce or occurred within federal special maritime or territorial jurisdiction.”

Denis Stearn committed a Hate Crime, an act of violence toward me and just after a violent mob had attacked me and other women viciously at a Press Conference in Port Townsend, causing bodily harm to me and many other women. He instigated this mob to continue and admitted to giving out my private information thereby putting me in danger. Stearn committed crimes against my perceived religion, my sexual orientation, gender, gender identity. Calling me a TERF, a Hate Term, and outing my private affairs from federal mail he admits to stealing.

18 US Code 242 - Deprivation Of Rights Under Color Of Law

I Allege that Port Townsend Washington Resident Denis Stearn willfully deprived me of my protected constitutional rights and violated Section 242 of Title 18 of which makes it a crime for a person acting under color of any law to willfully deprive a person of a right or privilege protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States.

Conspiracy Against Rights, 18 U.S.C. § 241

I Allege that Denis Stearn in Conspiracy with the USPS violated Conspiracy Against Rights, 18 U.S.C. § 241.

Conspiracy Against Rights, 18 U.S.C. § 241 says, “This statute makes it unlawful for two or more persons to conspire to injure, threaten, or intimidate a person in any state, territory, or district in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to the individual by the U.S. Constitution or the laws of the U.S.”

Stearn, in conspiracy with the USPS Port Townsend, Wa violated my free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to the individual by the U.S. Constitution or the laws of the U.S. As I am now defamed, painted as a bad person, painted as someone involved in bad or illegal things. How would he know what was in those legal filings he admits to reading, yet claims to not have. He flat out states it is about my prior activity, an envelope from a law firm can be anything, maybe copies for other people, maybe my church members, or family. To know he would have to open it. Then Call me a TERF and defame me to the world, and incite violence against me doing so, and the very day after I and other women were beaten down, hit, heads wrapped in flags, bullied, pushed against walls, property stolen and other property broken. I am in fear for my life because this violent mob and Denis Stearns, incites even more hate.

Sexual Orientation a protected class under Title VII

Sexual orientation is a protected class, I am publicly labeled HATE for being and outspoken lesbian, called a radical feminist, and accused of excluding Trans, that is defamatory, I have a record of helping Trans Women, and I myself and a Masculine Woman, a Lesbian. This is a HATE Crime.

HIPAA Violations

My mail box would have had personal medical information pass through, and he has clearly exposed looking at my mail and telling the entire world on a viral twitter topic, viral topic in general. I allege that Denis Stearn has Violated HIPAA.

I allege that Port Townsend Resident Denis Stearns owner of Twitter Account @denisstearns has committed crimes against me, my ministry and my church that Violate HIPAA Laws.

RCW 9A.36.083

RCW 9A.36.083: Hate crime offense—Civil action. A person may be liable to the victim of the hate crime offense for actual damages, punitive damages

Any and all laws I may be missing that the protected class of homosexual Woman, a pastor, and the rights of a church, as all 3 of those entities used that mail box.
