I couldn’t help reading your story about the bailiff who was confused with the Dictator of Liberia, Charles Taylor. My interest in your story was two fold. First, the hell that he went through to prove he wasn’t the Dictator and second, the hell he is still going through to make people believe him.

TransUnion is the company that placed the warning and all the information making the connection. In a very brief conversation with Charles Taylor the Bailiff…… TransUnion claims they are required by the Treasury Department to use special software on all Credit Applications. This software was created ( at great expense to the taxpayers ) to catch all suspected terrorists and former Dictators. TransUnion feels they have no liability to the victims if the Treasury Department tells them to do it.

About this point THE TELEPHONE conversation comes to the end. At this point they start to forget everything they already told you ( didn’t hear this from me..understand ) and then they hang up. As of todays date there has been no resolution to this problem and I guess the $2,000,000 reward is still good.

I know this because I’m The Charles Taylor, Bailiff for the 3rd Judicial Circuit, Edwardsville, Illinois.

Bailiff and Great American

He should turn himself in, collect the $2 mil, then get acquitted and live the high life.
