The man behind the movement now lives in exile under government protection, targeted by the very syndicate he dared to expose.<\/p>\n<p>This article reveals how these operatives systematically exploited courtrooms in California, the United Kingdom, and beyond\u2014deploying &#8220;lawfare&#8221; as a tool of economic subjugation, character assassination, and coordinated abuse.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/2023\/01\/09\/tom-girardis-unelected-corrupt-judges-the-hollywood-deep-state\/girardi-3\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-198870\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-198870\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/girardi.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/girardi.png 700w, https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/girardi-300x114.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\">The scale of Girardi\u2019s damage even prompted comment from California Supreme Court Chief Justice <strong>Tani G. Cantil-Sakauye<\/strong>, who publicly admitted in 2021 that the failure to stop Girardi earlier had &#8220;damaged public trust in the entire legal system.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>From the Bench to the Battlefield<\/h3>\n<p>In California, the manipulation of judges was central to the strategy. Tom Girardi, long perceived as a powerful advocate for plaintiffs, operated a darker reality behind closed chambers: ghostwriting judicial opinions, orchestrating favorable rulings, and buying loyalty with luxury perks. His relationship with <strong>Judge Tricia Bigelow<\/strong>, to whom he wired over $300,000 from client trust accounts, has been well-documented in mainstream press.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Gloria Allred<\/strong>, heralded publicly as a civil rights crusader, stood side-by-side with Girardi\u2019s operation. Behind the scenes, her firm collaborated with private arbitration agencies like <strong>JAMS<\/strong>, where cases were redirected to pre-selected \u201cGirardi Judges.\u201d <strong>Lisa Bloom<\/strong>, her daughter and frequent legal partner, helped operationalize these lawsuits\u2014many of which were built on fabricated evidence and coached testimony.<\/p>\n<h3>The Crosshairs of Lawfare: My Case<\/h3>\n<p>In one of the most egregious violations of my civil rights, I was incarcerated for six days in Los Angeles County Jail following a contempt ruling in the Mahim Kahn post-judgment debtor\u2019s examination. The contempt order, issued by <strong>Judge Thomas Falls<\/strong>, explicitly called for five days of incarceration, but I was held for six\u2014one day longer than the court&#8217;s own sentence. The order stemmed from proceedings in which my disability\u2014specifically my diagnosed traumatic brain injury (TBI)\u2014was ignored and ridiculed. Rather than offering ADA-compliant accommodations, the court used my condition against me in retaliation for whistleblowing and as a strategy of psychological attrition. This was not justice; it was punishment for exposing the truth.<\/p>\n<p>I, <strong>Alkiviades David<\/strong>, am a British citizen, a disabled entrepreneur, and a whistleblower. My family comes from one of Europe\u2019s great shipping dynasties and has deep-rooted holdings across multiple industries, including Coca-Cola bottling operations and major infrastructure ventures throughout Africa. As the founder of <strong>FilmOn<\/strong>, <strong>Cinemanow<\/strong>, and <strong>Hologram USA<\/strong>, I dared to challenge the corporate status quo by advocating for free speech, digital rights, and sovereign innovation.<\/p>\n<p>The result? A coordinated attack spanning continents. A fraudulent $900 million judgment, authored by Girardi while incarcerated, was filed against me. It was executed by Lisa Bloom and reinforced through Gloria Allred\u2019s network. My companies were targeted, my assets frozen, and my children unlawfully removed from my custodial rights\u2014granted to others in collusion with judicial operatives like <strong>Judge Yolanda Orozco<\/strong>, whose order has since been reversed on appeal.<\/p>\n<h3>The Alpha Nero Operation<\/h3>\n<p>Litigation involving the <strong>Alpha Nero superyacht<\/strong> is a smoking gun. I was personally named in the lawsuit filed in Antigua by <strong>Martin Deluca<\/strong>, a known agent of Boies Schiller Flexner LLP. He sued the Government of Antigua &amp; Barbuda, named Prime Minister Gaston Browne, and later included me in a manipulated filing that attempted to frame me in connection with the vessel\u2019s disposition.<\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 478px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-208901-1\" width=\"478\" height=\"850\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/evidence-video-GastonBrowne-TV_AlphaNero.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/evidence-video-GastonBrowne-TV_AlphaNero.mp4\">https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/evidence-video-GastonBrowne-TV_AlphaNero.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<p>The Alpha Nero, owned by <strong>Andrei Gureyev<\/strong>, a sanctioned Russian oligarch, was used as bait in an international laundering scheme designed to entrap whistleblowers and obscure state-level corruption.<\/p>\n<p>This is not litigation.

These are operations.<\/p>\n<h3>The Media Shield<\/h3>\n<p>What begins in the courts is echoed in the media. After launching meritless lawsuits, syndicate lawyers quickly pivot to television appearances to validate their narratives and discredit their targets in the public eye. <strong>Lisa Bloom<\/strong>, <strong>Gloria Allred<\/strong>, and other affiliated attorneys became regulars on networks like CNN, MSNBC, and ABC\u2014effectively becoming <strong>TV lawyers<\/strong> who manipulate legal theater into public relations warfare. Their appearances are not coincidental but strategic, backed by publicists, syndicate media handlers, and executives with vested interests. These media narratives pressure judges, sway juries, and isolate whistleblowers like me in the court of public opinion.<\/p>\n<p>The operation is protected by media oligarchs: <strong>Shari Redstone (Paramount\/ViacomCBS)<\/strong>, <strong>Rupert Murdoch (NewsCorp\/Fox)<\/strong>, <strong>Brian Roberts (Comcast\/NBCUniversal)<\/strong>, and <strong>Bob Iger (Disney)<\/strong>. These four families control 90% of American news and entertainment distribution. Through defamation, censorship, and selective coverage, they insulate their legal arms from exposure.<\/p>\n<p>Shockya is one of the few outlets courageous enough to publish this.
