Bishop L. J. Guillory is Ombudsman General to both National Ombudsman and Ombudsman International, Inc., which are 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporations that act as Government Oversight Agencies to investigate complaints of corruption by public employees as well as government agents and contractors., as a Unitarian Minister, his lifetime experience crosses national, cultural, and linguistic boundaries. 

Born and raised in Compton, California, his years in the entertainment business elevated him to the heights of the Hollywood Hills. Never forgetting or forsaking his roots, he is working harder than ever to serve those who are most in need and least able to help themselves. Steeped in the fundamental teachings of the Baptist Church, his journey of faith led him to a more encompassing understanding of the hopes and aspirations of others and a recognition of the value that is held by all people of compassionate faith. This faith has guided him in his work with the young, such as his African-American Outreach Program for the Boy Scouts, his work with Adult Protective Services to protect the elderly from abuse in hospitals and nursing homes, and also in his prison ministry. 

This latter ministry is dedicated to providing a progressive multi-cultural voice in the struggle to save our nation’s youth from the dead-end prison system. He is at the forefront of the fight to save wasted lives by working to open a unique college in Texas for first-time offenders and other young people by giving them a chance to go to college instead of jail. In his own youth, Bishop Guillory was befriended and mentored by community leaders who encouraged his natural interests in public service. 

His abilities were first recognized as the Youth Representative for the March of Dimes in Compton because of the amount of money that he was able to raise for that cause. He later became the Founder and President of the Junior American Youth for Community Excellence and Education (Jay-Cees), which sponsored community awareness events in Los Angeles County. The story of those early years is told in his book, “I Know Why the Caged Lion Roars”. In more recent years, he has been a frequent guest on a number of News Networks, including ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, and Fox. 

He has his own Radio talk show called the “Ombudsman Press” and publishes his own newspaper by the same name. Bishop Guillory has always been the first to say, “I am not a saint but I love God and will always stand up for what is right at any cost”. The evidence of that 'Stand' can be seen in the fights that he has had with corrupt politicians, abusive law enforcement agencies, and illegal influence peddling by special interests.

Office of The Ombudsman General





"WE FIGHT FOR YOU!"HELP FIGHT CORRUPTION BY SUPPORTING OMBUDSMAN INTERNATIONAL A United States of America Government Oversight Agency
The Police Complaint Center is a division of Ombudsman International, a United States Government Oversight Agency.

One of the primary focuses of our efforts is in the area of police corruption and abuse. We also accept complaints regarding elected officials and civil servants. Due to the increased number of police corruption and abuse complaints received by Ombudsman International, we have created The Police Complaint Center.

The Police Complaint Center of Ombudsman International accepts complaints from any individual regarding Police misconduct. The Police Complaint Center will investigate all valid reports.

Upon completion of the investigation, the Police Complaint Center will forward all findings to the Ombudsman General for direction. The Police Complaint Center works closely with the Internal Affairs Division of Police Departments, District Attorneys and private organizations throughout the nation to ensure that we obtain accurate information concerning any complaint received.

A representative of the Police Complaint Center will contact the complainant to verify pertinent information upon the receipt of any correspondence. Meetings with complainants are not always necessary and each case is individually reviewed by the Police Complaint Center staff.

As an integral part of our organization, The Police Complaint Center was created by the Ombudsman General in order to focus direct attention on this ever increasing phenomenon. All correspondence regarding this matter should be addressed to the attention of The Police Complaint Center. http://www.ombudsmaninc.org/

Did You Know...
that an ombudsman, "OM buhdz MUHN," is a nonpartisan public official who investigates people's complaints about government officials or agencies. Most of an ombudsman's work involves complaints of unjust or harsh treatment of people by police, prosecuting attorneys, or judges, and such matters as housing, taxation, voting, or welfare payments.

After investigating a complaint, the ombudsman may dismiss it or may seek correction of the problem-by persuasion, by publicity, or, occasionally, by recommending prosecution. Ombudsman, an Old Norse word translated to mean "administration-man" or "king's representative" was a concept developed in the Swedish constitution in 1809 as a means to curb governmental abuses and protect citizen's rights.

This later evolved into the investigation of unlawful or unfair acts and complaints about services. The Ombudsman then determines wrongdoing, mediates and/or makes recommendations for changes in practices and policies. Nearly 200 years later, this is the primary function of most Ombudsmen.

The definition of Ombudsman has also undergone a change. It is more readily translated to mean work "On behalf of Mankind". Now, Ombudsmen can be found around the world in government, educational institutions, business and even in industry.The idea of the ombudsman originated in Sweden in 1809. It has spread to Japan and to several European, Commonwealth, and newly independent countries.

Hawaii has a comprehensive ombudsman plan, and other states and some United States cities have modified plans. The idea also has gained popularity in large organizations, including corporations and universities. The ombudsman's growing popularity coincides with the increasing complexities of administration and with people's need for impartial and informal handling of complaints.

Ombudsman International-USA





WHO IS OMBUDSMAN INTERNATIONAL - USA, AND WHAT DO THEY DO?

Ombudsman International takes complaints regarding public officials and/or public corruption by civil servants. In that regard, we contract a private investigator to investigate the complaint. Should the complaint be found to be true, we will forward the complaint and fact finding data to the Attorney General and/or other law enforcement agencies.

Our organization is not a political organization yet we do reserve the right to investigate claims of corruption, especially when the lives of our young people, the future of tomorrow, are jeopardized. It is our right and it is our duty, to investigate, report, and disseminate any findings of corruption.

Merely taking complaints, investigating complaints, and making those complaints public does not denote political involvement. Our organization is neither pro nor con, neither the Republican nor the Democratic Party. We are not supportive of corruption!

Our organization has found that the underlying root to saving our children from the dead-end prison system is predicated on the truth as well as the word of God.We also attend symposiums throughout the United States of America. These symposiums are specifically about issues relating to youth gangs, drugs, juvenile imprisonment, and prison reform.

State agencies, non-profit organizations, as well as churches sponsor these events. Attending such activities is very essential to our organization as it allows us the opportunity to participate in the dissemination of our materials as well as to come together with the others who are working in the area of crime prevention.

Another activity in which we participate is the prison/jail visitation program. We are permitted to visit on a one-on-one basis with the prisoner. In most cases, the prisoner would not receive a visit from anyone. We use this opportunity to fellowship with the prisoners. There is no reimbursement for any expenses (travel/meals) incurred by the volunteer when they visit a prisoner.

In addition we are "listeners" when parents of incarcerated youth come to the office to pick up information, vent, find resources, as well as to communicate their concerns regarding their loved ones.The office is also a distribution center for the many pamphlets, brochures and other printed material such as articles written by actual prisoners that we distribute without charge.

We, Ombudsman International, are completely for the benefit of the public/taxpayers. We are religious in nature because we put God first in everything that we do. We help people who need our help. We fight for people who otherwise lay down and do not fight for themselves.

When we visit prisons, we put God first. When we speak out at symposiums, we put God first. In the middle of the night, when we answer calls made by mothers whose children, specifically their sons, are shot dead in the streets and they have no direction as to how to get their many questions answered from the local police departments, we answer their calls and put God first.

Deep East Texas

There is a Grave Need for Federal Intervention In ‘Deep East’ Texas!
By: Bishop L. J. Guillory, D.D.
Ombudsman General
Ombudsman International-USA

I know that many of the people who live and work outside of the East Texas area have no idea of what kind of Racist and Hateful treatment that African-Americans suffer. Some of which has to do; in part, with the results of the past presidential election.
However, please allow me the opportunity to share with you just a little of what I have found over the last eight months since the election of the first African American to the Office of the Presidency.
East Texas seems to pride itself on the fact that many of those living and working within the deep East Texas, have more than just roots here; they also have pride in the good old days (ways) “The Confederacy, Flags, Klan Country, being willing and able to conduct the last big fight against federal government takeover!”




In most, cases I have tried to keep my opinions to myself and just do the work that I came to the south to do; “Build A College” “Save Our Nations Youth From The Dead-End Prison System. However, what seemed to be happening in one area, was also taking place in other areas in the deep east part of Texas.
It has been well documented that the court system in east Texas have a history of its own brand of justice, which is swift and sure, in most cases driven by race, hate, economic or lack of economic resources. The state has some of our nations highest numbers of incarceration when it comes to African Americans males.

The fact that even the Texas Democrats are starting to change parties citing that; “The President’s Administration nor the Democrats in Congress represent and or reflect my ideas nor the people who I represent here in my District in East Texas!” Chuck Hopkins, Texas State Rep.
Chuck Hopkins, who was reelected as democrat just recently changed his parties; becoming a republican after the Obama lead Congress passed what may become first time national health care legislation.



If you were accused of a crime for which you did not commit; would you want fair and good representation? Many of the people who I represent complain that they did not get an attorney working on their behalf nor working to prove their innocents. Many of which are serving long prison sentences with no means and in some cases; not even the right to appeal their convictions.
I was one of those persons, which; is why I spend my life fighting for those who can not fight for themselves. Both within and outside of prisons throughout this nation. Ombudsman International, is a Not For Profit -United States Government Oversight Agency.
Ombudsman International, is not apart of the Government. We investigate complaints from United States Citizens regarding Government - Elected Officials, Judges, Police Officers, District Attorneys, and Concerns of Public Corruption.
At this point I feel based on the 27 years of working with, along side, and even at times against corrupt government officials; there is a grave need for Federal Intervention in Deep East Texas to prevent the continuation of hate crimes within the court system.





The Hate Crimes taken place here within many of the cities and counties involve the actions of school district board members, city council members, police officers, deputies working within the district attorney offices, and even within the courts where racist judges play a factor in more cases than not with regard to the outcome and lack of justice being served. I have witnessed first hand what happens in some of the courts in deep east Texas.

When an attorney refuse to work in the best interest of a defendant. Take the case of Truvia (African American Mentally ill Kid who is alleged to have killed his white teacher) where I have tried within to law to assist the family to get new and affective counsel in order that the kid can get the mental help that he truly needs.
As, a Bishop, an Ombudsman General recognized by members of Congress for my works across this nation, as father to a son now serving in the Army of this country. A odious Judge found cause to attack me. In fact, November 30, 2009, while sitting in court monitoring the Truvia case. Because, it is my belief that Jim Huggler is not working in the best interest of the kid.
I was asked to come to the judge’s bench for an unknown reason, as I am not a party to this case. But, have become the family spokesperson to deal with the media and others who have come out of the wood work to ask questions regarding Truvia’s background.
Once I was in front of what I believe to be the most Un-honorable and even in my opinion a racist judge. Judge Floyd Goetz ordered me to rise my right hand and swear to tell the truth for the information I was about to give to the court. I did! The Man (Judge) Floyd Goetz then attempted to intimidate me asking questions regarding my (wrongful conviction) incarceration and wanting to know how many members are apart of Ombudsman International. After telling the truth we have Thousands and Thousands.
“We have had more than 1.7 Million visitors to our web site www.Ombudsmaninc.Org .”
Since, I was not moved by his odious misuse of power and racist conduct, Judge Goetz banned me from the court and from the facility (a public building). Ombudsman International’s Attorneys are filing legal action on the judge and smith county regarding these unlawful actions.
The judge seem the have an issue with the fact that I have questioned publicly that the Truvia case, for which I am monitoring has a attorney that was at the center of criticism of a police shooting in September 2003. Truvia’s Attorney Jim Huggler, once worked as a depute district attorney in smith county.
Huggler, who oversaw the grand jury investigation of a case where three white Tyler police officers shoot and killed a 26 year old African American man; withheld at least one eyewitness from the grand jury. According to the associated press “Smith County District Attorney Jack Skeen said Huggler’s actions were improper!”
Huggler was also the attorney who represented Jamie Pittman who received a life in prison sentence. It was reported by one person close to the case that a Cook County District Attorney said; “Jamie Pittman, should have never been brought to smith county for trial.”
The fact that Huggler’s involvement in the Raibon’s death Grand Jury Case, which set off protests from Tyler’s African American community, and the Raibon family has brought serious questions and concerns as to why a man who’s ethic’s caused him the leave the Smith County District Attorneys office was appointed to a case of an African American kid who is accused of killing his white teacher.
It was reported by CBS 19 that Huggler contacted Attorney Smith in Dallas once he (Huggler) heard that I (Bishop L. J. Guillory) was working to hire Smith to replace Huggler. Only one of many the reasons for my decision to replace Huggler was the fact that Huggler brought a Dallas Reporter to the Truvia family’s home without permission or concern for the family.
More Information on this matter will be available after Ombudsman International’s Attorneys, overturn what may be a unlawful court order and legally address the civil rights violations which took place in court November 30, 2009. Please, feel to contact Ombudsman International
