U N P U B L I S H E D O P I N I O N

NORTON, Judge

Respondent Shelvie Rettman was charged with gross misdemeanor

practicing medicine without a license and respondent Melvin Rettman

was charged with aiding and abetting the practice of medicine without

a license. Prior to charging the Rettmans, police searched their home

and seized items Shelvie Rettman allegedly used to detect, diagnose,

and treat illnesses by analyzing a person's aura. These items include

a " rife " machine, " radionics " machines, " foot zoning " containers,

client files, and literature. After a contested omnibus hearing, the

district court suppressed the seized evidence, concluding that,

although there was probable cause for the warrant and its no-knock

provision, the search of respondents' home was a " no-knock " entry in

which the officers failed to reassess the situation at the threshold

prior to executing the warrant without announcement. Because we

conclude that appellant State of Minnesota has failed to demonstrate

clearly and unequivocally that the suppression order will have a

critical impact on the outcome of the trial, we affirm.

FACTS

The state alleges that Shelvie and Melvin Rettman took money from

Wilkins and her late husband, , for diagnosing and

treating 's pancreatic cancer, although they were not licensed

to practice medicine. Officers investigating Wilkins'

complaints obtained a no-knock search warrant for the Rettmans' home.

Four days after the warrant was signed, approximately ten to twelve

officers, including the department's special response unit, executed

the warrant after a fifteen-minute briefing and without any

additional investigation. The special response entry team entered the

home unannounced through an unlocked door with weapons drawn and

ordered the two males inside the home to lie on the floor.

Respondents were not at home. Several officers entered, searched the

home, and seized items.

D E C I S I O N

The state argues that the district court erred by suppressing the

evidence found at the Rettmans' home and that this error has a

critical impact on the likelihood of a successful prosecution.

[A reviewing] court will, in a pretrial appeal, reverse the

determination of the trial court only if the state demonstrates

clearly and unequivocally, first, that the trial court erred in its

judgment and, second, that unless reversed, the error will have a

critical impact on the outcome of the trial.

State v. Joon Kyu Kim, 398 N.W.2d 544, 547 (Minn. 1987).

Critical impact has been shown not only in those cases where the lack

of the suppressed evidence completely destroys the state's case, but

also in those cases where the lack of the suppressed evidence

significantly reduces the likelihood of a successful prosecution.

Id. at 551.

The district court considered the issue of critical impact and noted

in its November 21, 1997, omnibus order that,

* * * this determination does not preclude the prosecution from

proceeding to trial given that they have additional evidence in this

matter with which to obtain a successful prosecution of Defendants as

charged.

We agree with the district court that the state's evidence and

witnesses were sufficient to prosecute respondents successfully.

Wilkins is available to testify to her observations of the

treatments performed on her late husband, as well as the promises

that both respondents made regarding Shelvie Rettman's ability to

heal people during the Wilkins' repeated visits to respondents' home.

Wilkins' daughter, , can corroborate Wilkins' testimony

with her own first-hand observations inside the Rettmans' home and of

one of her father's treatments. Wilkins' sister-in-law, Barb

Lonsgard, who gave the Wilkins Shelvie Rettman's telephone number, is

also available to testify. The record indicates that the state has

disclosed the following additional witnesses, including some former

" patients " of Shelvie Rettman: Debbie Loza, Reverend Reginald

Lawerence, Karla Coe, and Tom Empey. These witnesses have all been

inside the Rettman home and have first-hand knowledge of the

Rettmans' activities.

Furthermore, the statute under which Shelvie Rettman is charged,

Minn. Stat. § 147.081, subds. 1 and 3(3) (1996), reads:

Subdivision 1. Unlawful practice of medicine. It is unlawful for any

person not holding a valid license issued in accordance with this

chapter to practice medicine as defined in subdivision 3 in this

state.

* * * *

Subd. 3. Practice of medicine defined. For the purposes of this

chapter, a person not exempted under section 147.09 is " practicing

medicine " or engaged in the " practice of medicine " if the person does

any of the following:

* * * *

(3) offers or undertakes to prevent or to diagnose, correct, or

treat in any manner or by any means, methods, devices, or

instrumentalities, any disease, illness, pain, wound, fracture,

infirmity, deformity or defect of any person; * * *

Respondent Melvin Rettman is charged with aiding and abetting the

practice of medicine without a license, under Minn. Stat. § 609.05,

subd. 1 (1996), which reads, in relevant part:

609.05. Liability for crimes of another

Subdivision 1. A person is criminally liable for a crime committed by

another if the person intentionally aids, advises, hires, counsels,

or conspires with or otherwise procures the other to commit the

crime.

On this record, we conclude that the state has not met its burden to

demonstrate clearly and unequivocally that the district court's

decision to suppress the evidence seized from respondents' home would

significantly reduce the likelihood of a successful prosecution given

the other evidence and witness testimony. Because of the abundance of

witness testimony to prove the elements of the charged statutes, we

conclude that the state could successfully prove its case against

both respondents without the suppressed evidence.

Because the state has failed to prove critical impact, we need not

reach the issue of whether the district court erred by suppressing

the evidence seized.

Affirmed. "

I believe the Rife machine she was using for therapy was a Birmingham

Beam Ray. This is in addition to 1930's style radionics for

diagnosis. The latter is a mechanized dowsing instrument employing a

photo of the patient, numbered dials and tactile reaction plate.

Readings are still only as good as the operator's intuition. Worth

mentioning is that personal gain is an obscuring factor. If not,

there would be alot of wealthy dowsers out there.

I agree with that it is unproductive to engage professional

skeptics on their own turf. It consists largely of innuendo,

superficiality and half truths. Soon you will be standing in

quicksand. If they had an ounce of integrity, they would apply the

same standard to themselves as they do to others. IOW prove why a

particular machine does _not_ work before quacking it. Unfortunately,

we are not in a much better position if we cannot prove why it

_does_. In this case, the weight of orthodoxy falls on their side.

Ms. Rettman's apparent downfall was making claims, mentioning the " C "

word, and charging money (the 3 C's). IMO all best avoided, unless

you are very sure of what you are doing. Payment for health is always

a dicely enterprise anyway. Just look what it has created.

Yes , it is the equipment sellers who perpetuate the impression

that audio frequencies are " Rife " therapy. Now that we know audio

works, maybe it's time to instigate a change?

Finally, have you wondered why Albert Abrams is persistently branded

by skeptics as " the king of quacks " . It's a war of credibility, not

facts. He is actually their king threat. The father of frequency

therapy; a highly distingushed physician of his time and not in need

of funds from shonky activities. Here is a more objective bio.

Hi :

You can count me in for a donation to gain a copy of those court documents.

She did make some outrageous claims. At least she isn't front page news yet,

like the " Blue " colloidal silver man.

With the RF carrier Rife machine of Bare you can see that it works in

principal on protozoa’s via You Tube.

HI, ... I'm in.

In the Shelvie Rettman case, the word " Rife " seems to be mentioned only

once, as in coincidently she had a so-called " Rife machine " - she also

had a " Radionics device " - odd that the quack Quackwatch guy didn't hop

on that one. BTW, I believe he is now losing every lawsuit he files, and

I have no idea how he keeps operating; Tim Bolan's group has been

following his claims, and has managed to get the Quackwatch guys

regularly bounced from courts claiming to be " Expert Witnesses. " Here in

California Quackwatch was quite literally thrown out of court and mostly

told to never darken their doors again.

I remember when this case came up and was published in the papers. What

nailed the case was Shelvie's claims to bringing about cures, not that

she used Rife, or Radionics, etc.. and the patient died - probably

would have died in any case, even conventional medicine has only a 3%

" cure " rate with PC (I know an MD who claims to be able to bring about a

" Cure " from PC says it's a body pH problem - I guess since he's an MD he

can say things like that.) The few friends of mine who had PC all died too.

So, AGAIN and again, we cannot in any way discuss " CURES " (and maybe

conventional medicine shouldn't either) with this technology. We can

" Increase nutrition " and " Boost the immune system " and so on, but we

can't ever claim " Cures " . It is, in every case, the body which brings

about a cure if fed correctly for the problem.

Hi ,

How do you come to think she was using a " Birmingham Beam Ray " ?

Do you have a source for that?

>Hi ,

>How do you come to think she was using a " Birmingham Beam Ray " ?

The device is specifically mentioned by Barrett in relation to the

Rhettman case.

http://www.quackwatch.org/04ConsumerEducation/News/rife.html

" In 2001, the FDA warned Bioray, Inc., of Birmingham, Alabama, that

it was illegal to sell the BioRay Light and Sound Generator as a

diagnostic or therapeutic device [3]. The company toned down its Web

site claims but still promotes the device. "

It is associated with Lynn Kenny and Beam Ray. The point I was making

was that equipment normally described as Rife did appear to be

involved. Of course, it is not actually Rife's equipment, or the

original Rife/Hoyland Beam Ray.

It is also not radionics, but there is a lesson to be learned. Prior

to being virtually persecuted out of existence, well-meaning radionic

practitioners believed they were using instruments based upon the

emerging radio technology of the day. In spite of the dial-festooned

boxes, and manufacturers' sales hype, this was easily disproven in

court. The fact that it did work in many instances was thereby discredited.

I will see what I can find, , at the local university with Lexis/Nexis.

I will send you a pdf of the case if I can. It should be available.

Plaintiff: State of Wisconsin, State Attorney General for the prosecution

Defendant: Shelvie Rettman, age 71, Prior Lake Minnesota, related to

F. Rettman, 9373 Country Dr., Prior Lake, MN 55372-2201, (952)

447-0622

I used a machine translator to find this much: Rettman is said to have taken

photographs with a Polaroid camera of the diseased area and put the photos

in a container attached to a " radionic machine. " This link should take you

to an English site if you want to sign up for free:

caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?court=mn & vol=appunpub%5C9807%5C2199 & in\

vol=1

The search engine I used for " Shelvie Rettman " is

http://www.scroogle.org/cgi-bin/scraper.htm

$500 seems pretty steep. If I cannot find the case file, I am willing to

donate. Maybe someone who lives close to the court in which the case was

held culd drop in and see what they could do under public disclosure. I was

charged 50 cents a page in Ellensburg for a court pleading recently. Four

pages came out to $2.00.

Jeff Southerland treated my dog with cancer this way - he used an ABPA

(bio-photon) machine and it was hooked up to an F165. He did not use a

polaroid - I had to take specific sized digital pictures and then email

them to him. From 10-18-07 to 12-07-07 I paid him $800.00. I was

told by Dale Fawcett, the person I bought the FSCAN II from, that I

could place polaroid pictures in my ABPA machine and run cancer

frequencies for my dog. Maybe these were the machines she was using.

I sent two pdf s to your ygroups address, . The cases took place

in Minnesota. Unless something recent happened in Wisconsin, nothing

came up for Rettman there.

One may say Mr. Barrett's day in court comes up with the label,

" Loser " in several cases. I can send you pdfs for those you name.

Please assume the California cases have not been certified. This means

they are worthless to use in court or even to discuss until they are

certified. The Federal cases below are a different matter.

I did not have good results at all - as a matter of fact, if someone

else on this list would not have stepped in and 'educate' me about the

FSCAN being a radionics NOT a RIFE machine - I think my dog would be

dead. I have since purchased a Plasma Plus II machine and my dog is

still here and does not experience any herx affects from this machine.

It is almost calming to her. Before anyone 'assumes' that I was doing

nothing other than RIFE, rest assured I was and am doing a multitude

of other things and still am, just not buying into all the MLM products

that were thrown at me in the beginning. The bottom line with Jeff is

he started out needing $200/month to help my dog - then he needed

$200/week to help my dog. No one would/could answer my question as to

WHY I just purchased an FCAN II AND an ABPA (spending thousands of

dollars) and still had to use the services of Jeff Southerland??? I

now realize the FSCAN is NOT a RIFE/plasma machine and evidently you

must be a practitioner and use a pendulum or some such device. I even

asked Dale about it being a RIFE machine. I was told that the FSCAN II

was being used in Switzerland in hospitals and insurance was even

paying for them to be used - so I now realize the question was skirted

around quite well. I am new to the rife world - since October! I

hope that others that are new realize that RIFE and RADIONICS are two

completely different types of machines. This is a RIFE list - is it

not???? I never heard of radionics before now. I THOUGHT I was

purchasing a rife machine. It seems there is plenty of 'omission of

facts' to answer questions. I have learned a lot in a short amount of

time. I now realize there is politics and money making ventures in

this field just like any other. I just wanted to get my dog better.

Too me, Shelvie isn't doing anything different than what is happening

on this very list and to me and my dog.

Sherry

PS - BTW, I live approximately 1 hours from Prior Lake, MN - if there

is something that I can get from any court house - I would be happy to

help in any way I can.

His treatment did not help my dog - IMO. I was constantly trying to

contact him because my dog was either in extreme pain or sick. I now

feel that she was experiencing herx reactions - so, in some way, his

treatment was doing something - just not what I had hoped. I also

found out that often times when using the FSCAN the tumor will grow

before it will start shrinking. Never one time was it even suggested

that I would need to be a practitioner to purchase an FSCAN. Any new

person out there needs to be very, very cautious about what they are

buying. Unfortunately, in the case of cancer one is not always blessed

with time on their side. I trusted the people I was working with.

This would be great if you did this. When I first decided to use rife

technology to help my dog with cancer - I posted to this very list

asking if anyone had used rife to cure their dog of cancer. Neenah is

the only person that replied to my question and suggested I purchase

the FSCAN II. I had no knowledge of radionics and never, for one

minute, thought I was purchasing anything other than a rife machine. I

believe that RIFE technology works - not radionics.
