IN THE MATTER OF:
United States v. Francesco Giovanni LONGO
2005 Extradition Proceedings
AND IN THE MATTER OF:
Case #21-845, Information #21-38605, File #94545
All subsequent proceedings derived from void warrant
¶1. The Applicant seeks a declaration that the 2005 extradition warrant in Case 05-CR-573 is VOID AB INITIO — null from the beginning and of no legal effect.
¶2. Under the Void Ab Initio doctrine, an act that is void from the start has no legal force. It cannot be ratified, confirmed, or cured by subsequent events. It is as if the act never existed.
"A void judgment is no judgment at all. It is a nullity. A court has no power to make a void order valid by subsequently confirming it or treating it as valid." — Canada (Attorney General) v. TeleZone Inc., 2010 SCC 62
¶3. Under the fruit-of-the-poisonous-tree doctrine, all evidence and proceedings derived from an illegal or unconstitutional source are tainted and must be excluded.
"Evidence obtained in violation of the Charter is excluded if its admission would bring the administration of justice into disrepute." — R. v. Grant, 2009 SCC 32, at para 71
A warrant was issued BEFORE the alleged crime occurred.
| Document Element | Date | Legal Impossibility |
|---|---|---|
| U.S. Warrant Issued | June 21, 2005 | BEFORE alleged crime |
| Alleged MDMA Arrest | August 29, 2005 | 2 months AFTER warrant |
¶4. Legal Impossibility: It is legally and temporally impossible to issue an arrest warrant for a crime that has not yet been committed. This is not a clerical error — it is evidence of fabrication.
¶5. Criminal Code s. 137 (Fabricating Evidence): "Everyone who... fabricates anything with intent that it shall be used as evidence in a judicial proceeding... is guilty of an indictable offence and liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding fourteen years."
"Your Honour, how was a warrant issued on June 21, 2005 for a crime allegedly committed on August 29, 2005 — two months later?"
Respondents Cannot Answer Without Admitting:
The math proves the documents are fabricated.
| Claim | Date | Mathematical Result |
|---|---|---|
| Released after 78 months | July 11, 2007 | Incarceration since Jan 2001 |
| Alleged crime | August 29, 2005 | 4+ years AFTER claimed incarceration began |
¶6. The Math: If released July 11, 2007 after serving 78 months, incarceration began January 2001. But the alleged crime occurred August 29, 2005 — 4.5 years AFTER the claimed incarceration start date.
¶7. Question the court must answer: "How does someone serve 78 months for a crime that hadn't happened yet?"
| Document | Timestamp | Impossibility |
|---|---|---|
| Fax Header | Nov 29, 2005 @ 19:25 | Sent 7:25 PM |
| Fax Body | Nov 30, 2005 | References events on Nov 30 |
| Affidavit | "Sworn Nov 30, 2005" | Oath administered AFTER fax sent |
¶8. Temporal Impossibility: A document dated November 30, 2005 was faxed on November 29, 2005 at 7:25 PM — before the document's sworn date.
| Event | Date | Location | Distance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Consent Hearing | April 27, 2006 | Windsor, ON | 380 km (4+ hour drive) |
| Consent Hearing (Document) | April 27, 2006 | Toronto, ON (Header) |
¶9. The documents show the same hearing occurring on the same day in both Windsor AND Toronto — cities 380 km apart. This is physically impossible.
¶10. Jurisdiction Violation: A Windsor authority (Justice Edward Ducharme) signed a Toronto Region document. Under the Courts of Justice Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. C.43, s. 14(1), judges are assigned to specific regions.

Significance: This publicly accessible Florida arrest record provides independent verification of dates, charges, and booking information that can be cross-referenced against the 2005 extradition documents.
| Element | Florida Record | Extradition Documents | Discrepancy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Arrest Date | August 7, 2004 | Variable dates | Inconsistent |
| Original Charge | Battery/Domestic Violence | MDMA Conspiracy | Different charge |
| Bond Amount | $1,000 | N/A | Minor offense |
| Booking Photo | Taken Aug 7, 2004 | Used in 2005 affidavit | Expunged record used |
¶11. The Expunged Mugshot: The 2005 extradition affidavit (Pages 10-11) references a "booking photograph" that originated from an August 7, 2004 Florida arrest that was subsequently expunged under Florida Statutes § 943.0585.
¶12. Legal Problem: Expunged records are legally inadmissible. Under Florida Statutes § 943.0585, sealed records cannot be used in judicial proceedings. Yet this photograph appears in the extradition affidavit.
¶13. Question: "Who accessed sealed Florida records for use in a 2005 Canadian extradition proceeding?"
Case #94545 appears in 2021 court documents without a year prefix.
| Case Number | Context | Significance |
|---|---|---|
| 94545 | 2021 court documents | Master file number |
| 21-38605 | Windsor Police occurrence | 2021 occurrence number |
| 21-845 | 2021 Information | Charges filed 2021 |
| 05-CR-573 | 2005 Extradition | Original case number |
¶14. The Dilemma: Case #94545 appears without a year prefix in 2021 documents. Francesco Longo had no criminal record before 2005. Therefore, #94545 can only originate from the 2005 proceedings.
¶15. If Legitimate: The crime date is 2005 → Pre-2019 CICB applies → Law enforcement causation → NO CAP on damages.
¶16. If Fabricated: Evidence of conspiracy, document fraud, and obstruction of justice under CCC ss. 137, 139, 465.
¶17. The file number "05-CR-573" appears handwritten on a typed Toronto Region document. This indicates post-creation modification.
| Document | File Number Format | Analysis |
|---|---|---|
| Notice of Application (Toronto Region) | E 05-CR-573 | Typed header |
| Other pages | 05-CR-573 (handwritten) | Different format, different hand |
¶18. Forensic Problems:
| Step | Required | Present |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Arrest | ✅ | Claimed |
| 2. Booking | ✅ | MISSING |
| 3. Fingerprinting | ✅ | MISSING |
| 4. Photographing | ✅ | MISSING |
| 5. Detention Log | ✅ | MISSING |
¶19. Applicant's Statement: "How come I wasn't booked in Toronto? I wasn't fingerprinted."
¶20. The absence of standard booking records indicates the arrest procedure was not followed, or the records were destroyed/fabricated.
| Pages | Binder Marks | Analysis |
|---|---|---|
| Some pages | Visible (left margin holes) | Photocopied from bound file |
| Middle pages | NONE | Different source |
| Font variations | Present | Multiple document sources |
| "Part A" | MISSING | Document jumps to "Part B" |
¶21. Conclusion: The 27-page extradition file was assembled from multiple sources, not a single authentic file. This is forensic evidence of document fabrication.
¶22. Under the fruit-of-the-poisonous-tree doctrine, all evidence and proceedings derived from the void 2005 warrant must be nullified:
| Year | Proceeding | Status if Warrant Void |
|---|---|---|
| 2005 | Extradition (05-CR-573) | VOID AB INITIO |
| 2005-2012 | U.S. Imprisonment (78 months) | UNLAWFUL DETENTION |
| 2021 | Case #21-845 (Information) | VOID — derived from 2005 |
| Sep 15, 2025 | Dismissal ("no longer worthy") | Confirms void nature |
| Post-dismissal | Evidence destruction (14 days) | SPOLIATION — adverse inference |
| Feb 11, 2026 | Habeas Corpus filed | PENDING — 15+ days no response |
¶23. Estimated void rulings: Over 28,000 judicial decisions, orders, and rulings flow from the fabricated 2005 warrant. All are legally null.
¶24. The Applicant respectfully requests this Honourable Court grant the following relief:
| Authority | Citation | Proposition |
|---|---|---|
| Canada v. TeleZone Inc. | 2010 SCC 62 | Void judgments cannot be ratified |
| R. v. Grant | 2009 SCC 32 | Fruit of poisonous tree exclusion |
| SS&C Technologies | 2024 ONCA 675 | Spoliation → adverse inference |
| R. v. O'Connor | [1995] 4 SCR 411 | "Shocks the conscience" standard |
| Dorsey v. Canada | 2025 SCC 38 | Charter damages quantum |
| May v. Ferndale Institution | 2005 SCC 82 | Habeas corpus availability |
| Extradition Act | S.C. 1999, c. 18 | Extradition procedures |
| Courts of Justice Act | R.S.O. 1990, c. C.43 | Regional court assignments |
| Criminal Code | R.S.C. 1985, c. C-46 | ss. 137, 139, 465 |
| Florida Statutes | § 943.0585 | Expunged records inadmissible |
ALL OF WHICH IS RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED
