How to Destroy the Life of an European Man in Alfred University, NY, USA/ László Fekete, Hungary

Dear American and non-American Colleagues, Friends and Strangers, 

I am asking for your NON-FINANCIAL help concerning the following issue: In 2002 I was invited as a guest professor to A. University in northern New York State. As soon as we had our first official encounter one of my young female American students started provoking me at the university, which later escalated to the point that she performed a semi-striptease in front of me; in spite of all this, I didn’t sleep with her. Several other young female students provoked me and made passes at me as well, but this girl was by far the most audacious and uninhibited. Never, never in my life before behaved a young female person on this way. NEVER. Of course all the other passes at me were just as unsuccessful. As a revenge for not sleeping with her, she reported me to Andrea Gill with false accusations which, if proven true, would have landed me in severe US prison for several years. Andrea Gill, our Head of Department, took her to Kelly Floyd, the HR Head of the university in spite of Gill knowing that – quoting her subsequent words – “The girl was a maniac liar, heavily drug-addicted, mentally ill” in spite of her young age. Moreover, according to another one of Gill’s later remarks, she even suspected this "young girl of prostituting herself in the neighbouring towns, to make money for drugs". Since it was the Head of Department personally taking the girl to K. Floyd  and because of other reasons as well, she immediately became a thousand percent positive about my guilt in advance. As a result of this I got into a downright life-threatening situation, with K. Floyd brushing aside all caution and legalities, subjecting me to an entirely illegal, cruel procedure on purpose – providing neither an attorney nor an interpreter, nor the presence of my supervisor and committing other illegal acts as well. Moreover she INTENTIONALLY plunged me into the deepest possible panic at the very bottom of which I only escaped suicide due to the lack of a building high enough in Alfred. When she saw my panic situation she reacted with a downright happy face – behold, she already managed to punish me! As a result of this I got into a panic that is impossible to express with words, neither in English, nor in Hungarian. During the whole week of this investigation, (for me: investigation-torture) I was unable to eat or sleep, and due to my more and more horrible nervousness I paced back and forth in the little town, flooded with panic attacks, plunging into unimaginable depths and sweating and sweating and sweating in minus 8-12 C. Nevertheless, one week later, when A. Gill returned from the 2002 Kansas City NCECA Congress (National Congress of Ceramic Education in Arts), I was acquitted, but after the week of hell I had to experience, 20 minutes after my acquittal I developed a really severe heart arrhythmia and had to be rushed to the intensive care unit of the nearest hospital in Hornell. At this point – after a week of catastrophic state of panic – an even worse: Also a total fear of death enveloped me; as a result of these two I completely changed and my life changed as well. Already in Alfred, I was treated by two American  specialists, a doctor and a psychologue, and after returning home, I had to visit five Hungarian professionals in order to get back to my normal self. Unfortunately this was “not entirely successful”, as I got divorced, so I was affected by problems regarding my apartment, studio, finances, health and other issues, the most painful of them being that my relationship with my sons completely changed. Until our divorce, since I could work at home, I spent more time with them that ten other fathers altogether, This is by far the most painful of all the difficulties, injustices and troubles I was subjected to. “Of course”, during our divorce, my now ex-wife’s rights were much stronger, just like with the girl's ones in the USA coming up with the false accusations. Because she yet believed-"somehow" I was yet guilty! I never had the slightest chance. So my relationship with women couldn’t return to normal, in spite of my most persistent efforts. But even the smallest trouble was painful: I even had to sell my dog, not being able to keep it on my own. I can say all my life collapsed because of not sleeping with an "american, maniacally lying, drug-addicted, mentally ill young female student" of mine, and being intentionally deprived of even my minimal rights vouchsafed by the American laws. But later I yet learned from two former professors-colleagues from Alf. (Wayne Higby and Anne Currier), that K. Floyd, the HR head, who ”did such a good job dealing with me”, was fired from the university, the girl was "advized to leave the school"-told by W. Higby to me later and A. Gill had to resign from leading the Ceramics Department. The absolutely frightening thing is that Kelly Floyd now, after her delight over me so incredibly, was retrained as a priv. psychologist and is practicing in Rochester area. I only hope she does not damage people in her twisted reality. Moreover I also know that the girl died already in 2010 with great probability due to drug-related problems, having had a lot of run-ins with the police already in 2001 and continuously afterwards - 20 times. For example in 2001 she failed to stop even after being signalled by a police patrol, wanting to avoid the search of her car; and so on. It should be obvious what she might have carried in her car. And before my arrival in 2002 January in Alfred, around 2001 Christmas in her very bad (drugged state?) she nearly made a fire in the killn room of the university. She has been nearly fired already at that time, but two months later yet everybody believed her absolutely nonsense, unbelievable false accustions against me. It was really life-changing for me.

Because of the facts listed, I have been asking the leadership of the university several times since 2002 to compensate me for the injustices, damages, illnesses as well as my financial problems, the humiliation, total collapse of life and so on, but      “of course”     no ONE humane word were ever uttered by them, neither within, nor after the deadlines prescribed by the law.  I began my fight for JUSTICE  ALREADY on 16 March 2002 late evening, when I was still waiting the emergency car from Hornell hospital, really near dying, in a horrible state. But in vaine.
The story is a thousand times longer: I could list numerous examples of their inhumanity and injustices   EVEN    A F T E R     my acquittal. These are the worst details of the story, really absolutely not worth to leading, high ranking American intellectuals.

I sent to you my text to let you know: What does it mean to be a foreigner man between the hands of three American female persons in such a "sexual harassment case". For the Pakistani girl in Pakistan was yet easier, than for me in the leading and proudest democracy of the world, she could get to a Nobel Prize with her fight for women's rights, myself to A BIG NOTHING. But I lost so much because of Alfred University's behavior, that I shall never give up my fight for justice as I have nothing to lose anymore. 

STILL THE MOST IMPORTANT: THIS WELL KNOWN HEAVILY DRUG ADDICT, PSYCH. ILL, MANIAC LIAR, AMERICAN GIRL COULD ACHIEVE IN ONE MINUTE, THAT A REALLY LIFE-CHANGING INVESTIGATION -TORTURE SHOULD BEGIN AGAINST ME, BUT I COULD NOT ACHIEVE IN 15 YEARS, THAT ALSO MY COMPLAINTS SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED BY ALFRED UNIVERSITY. 

                                                                                         IT DOES NOT NEED ANY COMMENTS. I think this fact is very sad for American Democracy.

                                                        

                                                               

With 6 clay and porcelain sculptures in 6 great and important, American fine arts museums and in 60-70 private collections-worldwide.

                                                            with 18 foreigner and hungarian prizes, 9-9.

                                                               with 4 one man shows in the 57th street and so on

 If you know an American publisher or another elsewhere, who would be ready to deal with such a "really life-changing and catastrophal sexual experiences' book" of a European artist in USA, please send me his address! It is about 60-70 pages and in Hungary most of my male colleagues read it in ONE sitting. But some friends told me as well, who knows the whole story in complete length: It would be a perfect film material and for a very cheap one in Hungarian-American coproduction. As in the last year a Hungarian film won the Oscar for foreigner films, perhaps that's why somebody could have trust in this film-material as well.
