My Third Novel's Conclusion, My Heartbreak

My heart begins to break when I think about completing this particular book -- because this narrative has sustained me like no other story I've known. It's both more personal and more universal than my other works. But beyond memory and archetype, it's a cri-de-coeur about needing to become the person one is destined to be. And in the writing, I have met my own life's work, my own fated journey -- having the sense all the while that the pages are suffused with a resonance, an energy, an electrified field that defies explanation. Writers hope and pray to be overtaken by a work in this way -- to be conscripted into passionate service of a profound story. To experience it even once in a lifetime seems a great privilege. I still have several months before this novel is complete, and this constitutes my reprieve. Because I'm not ready for the beauty to end.

Welcoming Outreach

 OIG Hotline, please be apprised that, when I am invited to meet with a representative from a particular political party, I must also make myself available for a conversation with other politicians who may wish to express their views to me.  

The reason for this is several-fold, but mainly pertains to my commitment to advocate for all Americans, regardless of political affiliation.

I have been entrusted with advocacy for the long term sovereignty of the American people, and, correspondingly, the nation as a whole.

This privilege means that I must commit to discuss myriad views and perspectives regarding the long term future of the nation we love, as well as the many neighbors and friends who define it.

So, I welcome outreach from those who wish to converse about these most critical inflection points regarding the future of the United States.

Thank you for allowing me to illuminate my commitments in this regard.

Most sincerely,

Lane MacWilliams

When the Giant Wakes

 OIG Hotline, my Wifi and cell phone coverage have been disrupted at my home, so I am currently working from a public server, the location of which I will divulge at the conclusion of this access.

I received a voicemail message from Disabled Veterans Empowerment Network during a very short reinstatement of cell coverage this morning, stating that my vehicles were not received by them until this morning, Wednesday, February 11, 2026.

Where were they in this interim period, from Saturday, February 7, 2026, the date of our donation, until now?

The allegation that the FBI and its affiliates took possession of at least one of these vehicles, my 2010 Buick LaCrosse, in order to engage in knowingly falsified law enforcement reporting regarding that vehicle -- is extremely concerning and could result in the loss of my life, without question.

The FBI's South Bay Chief of Station needs to be held to account on this issue immediately.

The DOJ has appeared to request that I not divulge this man's name publicly, but he continues to intentionally place my life at risk through his misconduct, including the creation of knowingly false evidence of crimes of which I have no knowledge whatsoever, the coercion of my children to sign knowingly false witness statements regarding our family, and through the advancement of concealed court proceedings in which false evidence is presented, advocating for capital punishment of my family members and myself -- this, through trials in which we have no opportunity for rebuttal or redress.

If that sounds wildly unconstitutional, it is.

I do not believe I have the obligation to continue to conceal this man's identity.

Quite the opposite.

The DOJ is demonstrating to me that it has no ability to rein in this malevolent and predatory agent within the FBI's ranks -- a person who continues to act outside of the mission and objectives set out for the FBI.

And my family has suffered immense harm because this individual has not been effectively prosecuted regarding his crimes against my family.

The FBI appears to suggest that both he and two of his associates are at risk of imprisonment due to alleged crimes perpetrated at my family's property on Cape Cod.  Further, the agency appears to imply that he and one other of his associates may be under threat to their lives by the FBI itself due to the extreme nature of the abuses they have perpetrated in this case.

It seems as though the FBI, in this circumstance and in almost every other, is incapable of apologizing, acknowledging fault, and atoning for its gratuitous crimes.

What should happen to Txx Lxxxx, Bxxxxxx Pxxx, and those who have repeatedly authorized their predatory falsified law enforcement reporting against my family? (Even now, the FBI appears to allege that my older son has been ordered to participate in false reporting regarding some spurious allegation of espionage against my family.)

The DOJ needs to ask itself a few questions in this case.

Is the DOJ capable of acknowledging that neither my family members nor I committed the crimes for which these men are responsible? (My honorable parents are included when I reference my family members in this matter.)

Is the DOJ capable of halting all allegations of capital crimes against my family members and myself?  That means vacating wrongful convictions and withdrawing all charges, whether within Canada, any and all other foreign countries, and domestically, within the United States.

Is the DOJ capable of  penalizing Txx Lxxxx, Bxxxxxx Pxxx, and those who have wrongfully assisted them in their predation toward my family?  That means financial penalties assessed against them and payable to me.  That means professional penalties imposed upon them which are permanent.  And that means that criminal liabilities are, if not fully prosecuted, which should be the case, documented fully in the form of charges within the auspices of the DOJ and transferred to the auspices of the Smithsonian Institution for availability of public review in perpetuity.

If the DOJ still possesses these fundamental capacities from a legal perspective, they should demonstrate that capability without delay.

If, on the other hand, the Attorney General has abandoned all pretext of lawful conduct within the auspices of the DOJ, we as Americans should know this as well.

The fact that my heart health is so precarious at the moment, and the heart health of my pets appears to be extremely endangered as well, says to me that the DOJ is experiencing great difficulty in meeting its fundamental legal responsibilities in this case.

I want to see better competence in restoring our health and that of my family members.  I want to see higher ethics from the Attorney General in removing all "collar" devices from my loved ones.  And I want to see a commitment from President Trump to withdraw all false witness statements from my loved ones who have been in fear for their lives, and a cessation of all orders to my loved ones to sign further false witness statements and/or perpetrate other harms to my family and/or to the public.  I want to see a withdrawal of all false evidence pertaining to this case.  And I want to be speaking to an intermediary regarding the resolution of my concerns to date to my standards and requirements.

The way forward will be defined by those who lead through honesty, integrity, fortitude, character, benevolence, wisdom, courage, temperance, a love of justice, a commitment to sovereignty, and a deep determination to help the United States, despite and because of our current crises, our climate challenges foremost among them.

The American people will remember who spoke the truth to them, just as they will remember who lied. They will remember who honored them, just as they will remember who dishonored them.  They will remember who uplifted them, just as they will remember who preyed upon them.  They will remember who stole from them, just as they will remember who gave to them.  They will remember who listened to them, just as they will remember who silenced them. They will remember who stood in defense of individual sovereignty, just as they will remember those who decimated self-determination.  They will remember those who loved the nation enough to advance its global leadership role in the long term, just as they will remember those who sold the United States' greatest proprietary and national gifts to Russia and China. They will remember those who alleviated their gratuitous suffering, just as they will remember who caused it.  They will remember who protected our children, just as they will remember who trafficked them.  They will remember who insisted on the freedom of our people, just as they will remember who tried to enslave them.

Good people of the OIG Hotline, the American public may be a sleeping giant.

But our challenges will awaken it.

And I caution everyone at this moment in time to hold to their highest ethics and integrity, because that giant will remember what we did a this critical juncture for the sake of the nation and the American people.

So, too, will history.

Lane MacWilliams

Email to the Disabled Veterans Empowerment Network, February 10, 2026

Email sent from lanemacwilliams@gmail.com to the OIG HOTLINE at 9:50 AM on February 10, 2026.


 OIG Hotline, at this particular time, no assessments against accounts bearing my name or associated with my identity should be allowed through allegations of wrongdoing on the part of one or more of my family members or on the part of myself, or on the basis of documentation from me allowing withdrawals other than those specified herewith, given that such documentation would represent forgeries.  

Please note that this should include misspellings of my name, including Lane Macwilliams (small W), Lane Mac Williams, Lane McWilliams, Lane Williams, Lane William, LANE MACWILLIAMS, Carol Elaine Von Herzen, Lane von Herzen, and any variations of the above.  

Settlements should be extended to my two sons and/or daughter-in-law with my express knowledge and consent.

At this time, I grant the OIG Hotline my permission to address misconduct by the FBI and its affiliates. Resulting penalties against the FBI or its affiliates may be funded to my accounts, but assessments may not be withdrawn for any reason at this time, except in the amount of 200 billion dollars to fund a foundation for the preservation and expansion of the National Parks, 5 billion dollars to the Smithsonian Institution for an exhibit pertaining to my case, 50 billion dollars to the Smithsonian Institution for an independent endowment, 50 billion dollars to PBS for an independent endowment, 100 billion dollars to fund a foundation for fusion research and development, and provisions for my two sons and daughter-in-law that avoid conflict of interest and meet listed requirements, as previously specified, and taxes owed on these allocations, which, in the interests of the nation, should be minimized.

Other than this, accounts affiliated with my name, any variations of my name, and/or my identity should be treated as locked, with the exception that deposits may occur.

All documentation, including deposits and appropriations made regarding this case, should be fully disclosed to the American public in perpetuity through the Smithsonian Institution until and unless I specify otherwise through my direct and ongoing communications with the Smithsonian, none of which have commenced as of this writing.

*************************************************

OIG Hotline, please see my communication, below, with Disabled Veterans Empowerment Network.

I note that DVEN is a service of the VA, and thus is going to be especially responsive to directives from the FBI and its affiliates, even, presumably, when those directives are wrongful or dishonest.

I think this circumstance represents an opportunity to snare those aggressors who have attempted to wrongfully implicate my family members and me of malfeasance.  

And I think they should be held to full accountability regarding this matter.

I will appreciate your rigorous insistence that the perpetrators of any falsified law enforcement reporting, including falsified evidence and falsified documents pertaining to our recent car donations, be fully prosecuted under the law.

Thank you for your determined support regarding this critical matter.

Most sincerely,

Lane MacWilliams

Dear Disabled Veterans Empowerment Network:

This communication represents our agreement that both vehicles donated to Disabled Veterans Empowerment Network on Saturday, February 7, 2026 -- our 2010 Buick LaCrosse and our 1999 Mercedes ML320 -- reflected lawful and honorable activity and that there was nothing suspicious, unlawful or criminal regarding the vehicles' contents, our property, our home, or my husband's possessions, cell phone, or communications at the time of the donation on Saturday, February 7, 2026.

If anyone affiliated with the Disabled Veterans Empowerment Network believes otherwise, this email serves as our agreement that DVEN will reply to me via return email with specific concerns right away, and certainly within 24 hours of this writing, on February 10, 2026 at 9:08 AM Pacific time.

In the absence of my confirmation via email of receipt of specific concerns or complaints regarding any of the above, DVEN will be confirming that all was ideal with regard to the lawfulness and honor of our conduct, our possessions, our property, our communications, our cell phones, and our vehicles.

Please see the documentation of DVEN's tow truck driver, here attached.

DVEN will also be confirming that our 1999 Mercedes ML 320 was received by DVEN on Saturday, February 7, 2026, but that our 2010 Buick LaCrosse was improperly released by the tow truck driver into the possession of a third party prior to being received by DVEN, and that DVEN did not take possession of the 2010 Buick until Monday, February 9, 2026.  This irregularity allowed for allegedly extensive tampering with our 2010 Buick LaCrosse without the knowledge or consent of my family members or myself, and represented a fundamental breach of trust in the appropriate procedures of this donation.

Because I stand as a lead witness in an important human rights case at the U.S. DOJ, there are those who regularly attempt to tamper with my possessions, my cars, my communications, my electronic devices, my donations, etc., as well as those of my family members, in order to falsely implicate us of wrongdoing in some manner.

I know that DVEN, in caring about veterans' welfare, would wish to have nothing to do with dishonesty or wrongful conduct in this matter or any other.

The fundamental trust among Americans of goodwill and benevolence must be upheld at all times, and DVEN knows this quite well.

So, I appreciate your cooperation with the requirements of this communication, as they do ensure the preservation of my family's safety and my own.

I will follow up with you tomorrow to verify whether or not I have received any return email communication from DVEN with specifics regarding any or all of the above confirmations.

Sincerely yours,

Lane MacWilliams

Secure Conveyance of Investigative Materials Via Courier

OIG HOTLINE, this is to confirm that I have received no communication from your Office regarding my case.

I recognize the possibility that my gmail account has suffered tampering preventing communication from you from reaching me in a timely manner.

As a result, I am re-instating my offer of reimbursement for a courier to hand-carry communications and/or documentation from your Office to me directly.

OIG Hotline, this is to confirm that if it is possible to provide me with investigative reports through secure and verifiable means, I will appreciate that provision in its entirety.

Because I know that the costs of providing documentation are typically borne by requesters, I hereby confirm that I will pay up to $20,000 in reimbursement of costs relating to the successful and complete fulfillment of all materials pursuant to my request for an investigations update if they arrive safely in my hands.

If materials demonstrate tampering, or redaction or omission that are unapproved by the OIG Hotline, however, the full costs of provision are to be paid by the FBI.

I believe a courier with email or phone confirmation to me regarding this person's identity and arrival time, together with security precautions that include security seals, certifications and watermarked documents, represent appropriate measures in this case.

Please be apprised that the FBI appears to assert that previous mailings were removed by the agency from the U.S. Postal Service, as well as deleted from my email communications, and that additional measures guaranteeing secure delivery are now necessary.

Thank you for all efforts on our behalf.

Most sincerely,





Lane MacWilliams
