Jan 13, 2026: URGENT NOTICE TO OIG & DOJ AGENTS AT FCI MILAN
CEASE AND DESIST IMMEDIATELY.
Conrad Rockenhaus formally asserts his 5th and 6th Amendment rights to remain silent and to have counsel present.
He does not consent to any interview, interrogation, or “informal questioning” regarding the U.S. Marshals, the September 4th raid, or conditions at FCI Milan without his attorney, Kaycee Berente, physically present.
You are attempting to question a disabled veteran with a documented Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) immediately upon his release from solitary confinement; any “waiver” or signature you extract under these conditions is legally void, claimed under duress, and will be used as evidence of prosecutorial misconduct. We know you are there. Step away and contact his attorney.

CRITICAL UPDATE, JAN 4, 2026 – CONRAD ROCKENHAUS IS SEIZING TO DEATH IN THE SHU
You cannot argue that a prisoner is safe while simultaneously locking him in a cage designed for punishment.
The SHU placement proves the retaliation argument in the appeal is true.
Conrad Rockenhaus being in the SHU is the crime. It is the physical manifestation of the conspiracy to silence him.
- Medical: It violates the standard of care.
- Legal: It obstructs his access to counsel.
- Moral: It is torture and murder.
The Bureau of Prisons (FCI Milan) is currently housing a Care Level 4 Seizure Patient in punitive solitary confinement.
This is not ‘safety.’ This is an attempt to induce a fatal seizure (SUDEP) to eliminate a witness through murder, before the Sixth Circuit can rule.
Placing a man with a known Traumatic Brain Injury and active seizures into solitary confinement (SHU) is not “administrative segregation”, it is a death sentence disguised as security.
UPDATE December 23, 2025: The Defense Corrects the Record
The reply brief by Defense Attorney Kaycee Berente (United States v. Conrad Rockenhaus 25-1974) explicitly disproves SAUSA Corinne Lambert’s claim that Conrad Rockenhaus’s medical crisis was never raised, citing specific transcript pages showing Judge Stephen J. Murphy III was fully informed of the emergency yet chose to ignore it. The filing dismantles the Government’s narrative of judicial discretion, arguing instead that the court relied on erroneous facts to impose a harsh sentence in retaliation for Rockenhaus’s whistleblowing.
DETROIT / CINCINNATI / COLUMBUS – Yesterday, on December 22, 2025, SAUSA Corinne Lambert argued to the Sixth Circuit Court that Conrad Rockenhaus’s medical crisis and retaliation claims were “never raised” in the lower court.
Today, Defense Attorney Kaycee Berente proved that false.
The Defense Reply Brief cites the exact transcript pages showing Judge Stephen J. Murphy III (ED Michigan) was fully informed of the crisis, yet chose to ignore it.
Most critically, the filing officially argues that Conrad’s harsh sentence did not consider the retaliation for whistleblowing regarding misconduct at the detention center.
The Government tried to sell a false narrative that the Judge acted within his “discretion.” Today’s filing proves he acted on erroneous facts, targeting a whistleblower. The receipts are now on the docket.

Emergency Update 12-22-25: In her appeal brief, SAUSA Corinne Lambert (Detroit, Michigan) chose to prolong the horrific pain and suffering of my disabled veteran husband, Conrad Rockenhaus, which could very well lead to his death. My husband may be receiving a death sentence over technical violations that were provably fabricated. Read Corinne Lambert’s response here.
Introduction
My husband, Conrad Rockenhaus, is a Navy veteran with a service connected and documented traumatic brain injury and seizure disorder. He is currently in life-threatening danger inside FCI Milan after a series of violent events, medical neglect, and escalating retaliation connected to his supervised-release case in the Eastern District of Michigan. SAUSA Corinne Lambert has committed multiple types of severe misconduct, including Brady Violations, making her complicit in his potential death.
Despite detailed documentation, court filings, and repeated notifications to federal oversight offices, critical safety and medical concerns remain fully ignored.
This page collects my real-time updates and public statements so there is a permanent, transparent record of what is happening.
Important documents/media:
Emergency Motion, Next Friend, 6th Circuit – My large (attempted), emergency legal filing with around 50 exhibits for the 6th circuit appeals court. This Emergency Motion asks the Sixth Circuit to intervene because Conrad Rockenhaus, a 100% service-connected disabled Navy veteran, suffered a seizure and head trauma following a violent September 4, 2025 arrest. It shows how Conrad remains in federal custody without examination or medical care. The motion also documents the fraudulent warrants, the records of retaliation by multiple federal agents, the violence, the year long campaign of terror by probation officers Agapiou, Konal, and Thomas, and the trauma I endured advocating for Conrad, as his spouse and Next Friend.
I suffered through three no-contact violations by Probation Officer Stylianos Agapiou, sexual harassment by a U.S. Marshal, violent false imprisonment by the same U.S. Marshal AFTER I sued him for sexual harassment, armed intimidation by USMS during two illegal raids, and the district court’s October 14, 2025 statement explicitly framing punishment in relation to “his wife’s behavior.” The filing details counsel abandonment, procedural irregularities, and indifference to serious medical needs, explaining why Conrad is medically unable to protect his own legal interests. The motion is comprehensive and supported by transcripts, medical records, warrants, videos, and meticulous documentation.
Supplement to Emergency Motion – a supplement to my emergency filing. (Counsel Omissions & Withheld Evidence). This filing documents that prior court-appointed counsel Sanford Plotkin received, acknowledged, and then failed to present critical exculpatory evidence before the October 14, 2025 hearing, including raid video, medical-danger notices, ADA accommodation requests, and proof contradicting sworn probation allegations. As a result, the district court proceeded on a materially incomplete and inaccurate record that excluded the September 4 violent raid, Conrad’s head injury and seizure risk, the pending habeas petition, and the retaliation context.
The filing also shows that Judge Stephen J. Murphy III has precedent for removing conflicted counsel in comparable circumstances, yet that safeguard was denied here, despite identical warning signs. The submission is comprehensive and fully documented, with receipts showing what was provided, when it was acknowledged, and what was withheld.
6th Circuit rejection of life-or-death filing, citing procedure over human life. The clerk’s bureaucratic rejection of my pleas for safety. This email documents the Sixth Circuit Clerk’s rejection of my Emergency Rule 27 motion seeking immediate relief to prevent permanent injury or death to Conrad Rockenhaus following untreated traumatic brain injury and seizures. I was also sent a letter from clerks Alicia N. Harden and Kelly L. Stephens a day later, enforcing a procedural blockade rather than route the motion to a Judge.
Despite being formally notified that Conrad was medically incapacitated and that I was acting as his Next Friend under controlling Supreme Court precedent (Whitmore v. Arkansas), the Clerk responded that “no action will be taken,” citing internal filing procedures and refusing to route the motion to a judicial officer. The record shows repeated notices explaining the medical emergency, counsel abandonment, and imminent risk, all of which were dismissed on procedural grounds without judicial review. The correspondence reflects a bureaucratic refusal to consider a life-or-death emergency based solely on filing mechanics rather than human safety.

Oct 14 Transcript: At the October 14, 2025 status conference, Judge Stephen Murphy stated that imposing jail time could appear to penalize Mr. Rockenhaus for “his wife’s behavior,” while leniency could appear to reflect intimidation by filings, and adjourned sentencing to consider the ethical implications. (Status Conf. Tr., Oct. 14, 2025, pp. 11–12).
May 13 Transcript: plea coerced by attorney Marc Lakin.
Appeal Brief Filed Dec 11: The Sixth Circuit appeal challenges Conrad Rockenhaus’s six-month sentence as substantively unreasonable, showing the district court abandoned its earlier one-day plan without explanation and failed to properly weigh his documented medical fragility and service-connected disability.
In her appellate brief, appointed counsel Kaycee L. Berente makes strong arguments that the six-month custodial sentence imposed on Conrad Rockenhaus was substantively unreasonable under 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a). The brief demonstrates that the district court initially planned to impose one day of incarceration with time served for the same Grade C supervised-release violations, then later imposed six months without providing a reasoned explanation for the change, despite expressly stating that the later August allegations had been “fully discharged” by arrest and detention. (See Status Conf. Tr., Oct. 14, 2025; Sentencing Tr., Oct. 17, 2025.)
The brief further shows that the court failed to give appropriate weight to Mr. Rockenhaus’s documented medical vulnerability, including his status as a 100% disabled, honorably discharged Navy veteran with a seizure disorder, which was triggered during his arrest and required emergency medical transport. By selecting the length of incarceration arbitrarily and placing disproportionate weight on “lengthy non-compliance” while discounting serious medical risk and available alternatives to custody, the court abused its discretion. The brief asks the Sixth Circuit to vacate the sentence and remand for further proceedings.
What also happened to me, Adrienne Rockenhaus, is not speculation or emotion, it is documented fact. I am a private citizen with no criminal record.
Over the course of months, I was subjected to escalating misconduct by federal officers, including sexual harassment, threats, physical intimidation, and violence. A gray-bearded U.S. Marshal showed my husband, while handcuffed, a WhatsApp message saying “his wife has nice tits,” using it as a direct threat against my safety.
Months later, that same Marshal returned during a violent and illegal raid, pointed a firearm in my face through my bedroom window, and physically trapped me inside my home by holding the exterior door shut from the outside while other Marshals beat my husband in the driveway.
Instead of acknowledging the violence I endured, Chief Judge Stephen J. Murphy III dismissed my filings, reports, and documented trauma as “his wife’s behavior,” recasting me, the victim, as the problem.
This was said in open court, in front of the very officers who harmed me. His minimization functioned as a public erasure of the abuse and a signal of impunity. The danger did not stop there.
Judge Murphy’s comments ensured the retaliation escalated again. In the days that followed, I was run off the road by an unknown vehicle on an isolated street, after weeks of being monitored by the same institutions I had reported.
This timing was not random. As documented in my filings, the escalation came directly after Murphy’s refusal to acknowledge the abuse I survived, his decision to minimize it in court, and his choice to proceed as if the violence were irrelevant. These events are not interpretations. They are documented, timestamped, and supported by contemporaneous records, forming a clear pattern of danger that intensified after the October 17 hearing.
From Adrienne Rockenhaus on X.com:
Judge Stephen J. Murphy III (E.D. Michigan) opens the October 14th hearing (the day I drew a crowd of silent witnesses) by announcing that my civil filings make him unable to sentence my husband.
Murphy says he received: my Bivens suit against probation/ U.S. Marshal, my filings documenting misconduct, my judicial misconduct complaint, my sentencing letter that morning.
And then he says:
“I don’t see how I can go forward on this.” (Transcript)
He directly tied my filings to his ability to sentence Conrad.
Judge Murphy then frames ME as the problem, not the violence/ terrorization/ sexual harassment by federal officers I reported.
Murphy claims that if he sentences Conrad:
“It looks like I’m penalizing him for his wife’s behavior.”
This is not neutral.
This is the judge calling my reports of violence sexual harassment and terrorization by federal officers “behavior.”
He tells the courtroom that -Adrienne Rockenhaus- filed a complaint against him with the Sixth Circuit.
In front of the U.S. Attorney and Conrad’s lawyer, Murphy publicly states:
“There was a complaint made against me… by Adrienne Rockenhaus.”
This is wildly inappropriate.
Judicial misconduct matters are confidential, unless the judge weaponizes them publicly.
Judge Murphy chose to do exactly that.
He implies I was disrupting the integrity of the judiciary.
He reads aloud the part about:
“Manipulating or abusing the judicial process… undermining public confidence.”
He basically tells the room:
“Her filings make ME look bad, so now I can’t fairly sentence her husband.”
Judge Murphy brings ME up repeatedly as a reason he cannot do his job.
The theme repeats:
- “Her filings”
- “Her letter”
- “Her complaint against me
- “Her civil suit”
All reasons he feels personally compromised.
This is judge-induced conflict of interest, said out loud.
CJA appointed federal defense attorney, Sanford Plotkin, throws me under the bus and Murphy encourages it.
Plotkin says:
“Mrs. Rockenhaus is upset… she’s choosing to exercise her rights…”
And emphasizes:
“Her husband has not filed any of these matters.”
“He is not aware of certain filings.”
Instead of pushing back, Murphy nods along and continues the theme that I am the destabilizing force.
THIS WAS PERJURY. Conrad filed his own Bivens long before the October hearings, and before the Sept. 4 violent raid.
Plotkin was sent a copy. Plotkin knew.
I was not the source of the litigation. I was not acting alone. I was not inventing legal claims.
I was not hijacking his case.
Conrad was already suing because of what happened to him.
My filings were parallel, not the cause.
The fact that Plotkin didn’t clarify this at the hearing isn’t on me, it is on him.
Murphy, in turn, absorbed the false narrative that I was the sole disrupter.
This is NOT a misunderstanding, it’s a reframing tactic.
In institutional settings (and especially in trauma cases), reframing a victim’s report as “behavior” is a classic method of silencing or delegitimizing the person reporting harm.
Judge Murphy didn’t reject the substance of what I said. He didn’t evaluate the claims. He didn’t question the Marshal’s conduct. He didn’t separate ME from the legal issues.
He didn’t acknowledge the retaliation. He didn’t acknowledge the violence or sexual harassment. He didn’t acknowledge my vulnerability.
He simply re-labeled all of it as:
“Wife’s behavior.”
That is rhetorical violence.
The transcript proves this was not about “judicial neutrality”
Judge Murphy’s own words show:
- He knew about the Marshal misconduct
- He knew about the retaliation
- He knew about the filings
- He knew about the Bivens
- He knew the complaint wasn’t frivolous
- He knew I was the victim
And STILL he framed it as:
“her behavior.”
This is not judicial neutrality.
This is a personal reaction to being challenged.
And he expressed it in open court…
…in front of federal officers implicated in misconduct.
That is not normal. And it is not ok.
The fact that Conrad filed first makes Judge Murphy’s framing factually incorrect.
This is the biggest point: Murphy’s narrative only makes sense if I was the one driving the legal conflict.
But I wasn’t.
Conrad filed a Bivens first. I sent Sanford Plotkin a copy. Plotkin knew Conrad filed it.
Murphy had access to it. Murphy still blamed ME.
That means:
Murphy’s framing wasn’t just harmful, it was factually false.
He had the information to know better, and chose to harm me instead.
The transcript is not just highly inappropriate. It is evidence.
Because taken together:
- “behavior”
- ignoring misconduct
- minimization
- open-court reference to my judicial complaint
- erasure of my abuse
- misattribution of litigation
- framing ME as destabilizing
- doing this in front of the officers and Marshals accused of violating me
- proceeding to sentence Conrad anyway
…it forms a pattern that, in legal analysis, qualifies as retaliation, victim-blaming, prejudicial commentary, appearance of bias, possible actual bias, improper public reference to a judicial misconduct complaint, failure to recognize conflict, and potentially deliberate mischaracterization of facts to protect an abuser and harm a witness.
This is sexist, dangerous, and has absolutely no place in a courtroom, in a hearing that had nothing to do with me.
I, Adrienne Rockenhaus, was not a bystander to my husband’s, Conrad Rockenhaus’s, case.
I was targeted, sexualized, threatened, silenced, and then erased on the record.
Probation officer, Stylianos Agapiou, treated me as an object to control, not a protected civilian.
A U.S. Marshal used sexual humiliation and implied violence against me as a tactic designed to traumatize me.
Armed federal officers terrorized me in my own home, including pointing a gun at me and physically trapping me.
Eastern District of Michigan Federal Judge Stephen J Murphy III reduced all of that to “his wife’s behavior”, in open court, tying my humanity to whether my husband deserved liberty.
An attorney, Sanford Plotkin who was supposed to protect my husband withheld reality, erased filings, and then turned on me openly.
A federal prosecutor, Corinne Lambert, knew, was told repeatedly, had the evidence, and chose silence, allowing the harm to stand uncorrected.
And then, on top of the acts themselves, the system did the part that hurts the most:
It pretended none of this was about me at all.
That is the wound I am carrying.
Not just fear.
Not just grief.
But the experience of being fully present, fully harmed, and then procedurally deleted.
…Meanwhile at FCI Milan:
My husband Conrad is dying from deliberate medical neglect at FCI Milan, and I am in constant danger from retaliation.
