RISE / PUBLIC RESEARCH · 20 SEPTEMBER 2026
Documented connections. Unanswered questions.
Two source-linked reports on six Maine legal and judicial professionals. Read the affiliation maps, the original PDFs and the records still missing. An institutional connection is not a finding of friendship, improper influence or misconduct.

RISE: the public work directly behind the bill.
The systems argument, full 17-page chapter reader, private in-browser action brief, and dedicated share page. Main-site route and a separate complete RISE static site. No redirects or hosting configuration files.
V89 · THE NO “MOORE” HARM SERIES · September 18, 2026
All three books are live — and each now points directly into its companion arcade.
Carpooling to Hell is the record. IN RE: The Tyranny of Family Law is the indictment. Trial by Fire is the adversarial test. V89 adds the live series landing page, title-specific Amazon routes, series-wide navigation, Book I/II/III arcade-to-book bridges, and upgraded shared progress.
V88 · Trilogy companion arcade systems pass · September 18, 2026
The three book arcades now play like distinct products, not three themed shells.
Inside the Machine now runs through four procedural chapters with receipt combos, Resolve boost, checkpoints, and a Last Off-Ramp unlock. The Indictment adds a source-limit cross-check after every Fact → Source → Standard → Harm → Remedy chain. The Show expands to six claims and a three-lock trial loop: Exhibit → Objection → Accurate Answer. Shared progress now tracks achievements, best scores, runs, receipts, Child Time, accuracy, and trilogy seals.
V87 · Trilogy companion arcades · September 18, 2026
The record, the indictment, and the trial are now playable as three distinct companion arcades.
Carpooling to Hell — Inside the Machine turns Book I into a road-and-record survival game. IN RE — The Indictment rewards disciplined Fact → Source → Standard → Harm → Remedy chains. Trial by Fire — The Show puts generic claims against the record under time pressure. The Shoehorn of Justice is now the master trilogy hub with shared seals and a Public Trust ending.
Current release · V84 · September 18, 2026
Book II and Book III now get the Carpooling-to-Hell treatment.
IN RE: THE TYRANNY OF FAMILY LAW is upgraded from a placeholder into a polished indictment landing page. TRIAL BY FIRE now has a full coming-soon book page using the supplied KDP cover artwork while keeping the draft PDF, EPUB, DOCX, and upload package off the public site. The publishing slate now carries the complete “record / indictment / trial” framing.
Current complete-site update
V78 — THE SHOEHORN OF JUSTICE — EPISODE I: PUBLIC ACCOUNTABILITY
V76 — Shoehorn of Justice full-browser layout reset
Standalone flagship route rebuilt as a full-browser game surface. Arcade page keeps a launchpad only. Nested scroll traps and cramped cabinet layout removed.
V78 turns Episode I sideways for the People: a polished slingshot-physics flagship where players pull back, launch the Shoehorn of Justice, smash destructible procedural fortresses, break the Haughtiness Shield, restore child time, and carry the parchment opening and ending crawls into a cleaner full-browser experience.
V83 · Bookmark of Justice live on Thingiverse · September 17, 2026
The Bookmark of Justice now has its own Thingiverse listing.
One Hell of a Bookmark is now wired like the original Shoehorn of Justice: the website points to the direct Thingiverse listing, while local STL and pack downloads remain as backup mirrors. Public accountability is now in reading format.
V80 · Publishing slate + Bookmark of Justice · September 17, 2026
The record, the indictment, the show—and one hell of a bookmark.
Carpooling to Hell is framed as the history of record. IN RE: The TYRANNY of Family Law receives a public landing page as the indictment/call-to-action layer. TRIAL BY FIRE receives a coming-soon show page. The site also adds The Bookmark of Justice, a free print-friendly STL companion for the memoir.
Current release · V75 · September 16, 2026
Beat the Oligarchy at its own stubborn game of haughtiness.
Once upon a docket, ceremony mistook itself for wisdom. V74 preserves that three-episode call to action while giving Episode I a dedicated full-screen launch: find the opening, enter the receipts, break the Haughtiness Shield, and restore child time. The boss remains fictional and generic.
Play Episode I — Public Accountability ↗Preserved prior release
V67 — The Shoehorn of Justice: Haughtiness Protocol
V67 established the final identity and rebuilt the boss as a five-phase battle against the fictional Oligarchy of Haughtiness, with a Haughtiness Shield, special attacks, parries, phase art, achievements, and result cards.
Preserved prior release
V66 — Procedural Shoehorn: Flagship Director’s Cut
V66 turns the flagship into a deeper browser experience with five distinct modes: Story Campaign, Daily Docket, Boss Rush, Endless Extraction, and Mobile Quick Extraction. It adds source-fragment collectibles, expanded hazards, a field manual, local mode records, score-card generation, a five-phase boss rush, adaptive Old Machine Mode, and a stronger result-sharing loop.
Preserved prior release · V66 · September 16, 2026
The publicly available instrument of justice now has a full Midway Hub.
V66 preserves the public boundary: the game uses generic carnival figures, document symbols, clocks, and a fictional bureaucratic jackass costume. It is editorial satire, not a diagnosis, finding, reenactment, or depiction of a specific person.
Play all five modes ↗Play from the full carnival ↗Preserved prior release
V65 — The Instrument of Justice becomes the flagship game
The September 16 V65 pass adds a fully playable Procedural Shoehorn campaign to the Public Accountability Arcade and a dedicated direct route. Desktop receives five stages, a three-phase boss, gamepad support, synthesized audio, achievements, persistence, shareable results, and the 99.5 Jetta finale. Mobile receives a separate Quick Extraction mode with shorter stages and touch controls.
Preserved prior release · V65 · September 16, 2026
A publicly available instrument of justice now has a full browser game.
The V65 game is editorial satire using generic carnival figures and a fictional bureaucratic jackass costume. It is not a diagnosis, finding, reenactment, or depiction of a specific person. The game is free, stores progress locally, and adds no account requirement.

V64 — The Procedural Shoehorn becomes an Instrument of Justice
The September 15 V64 pass adds the free 99.5 Jetta Procedural Shoehorn to the official Carpooling to Hell book page with a permanent linkable section, direct Thingiverse download, ready-to-share copy, native share and copy controls, and direct social actions. The memoir, arcade, rally, speech, initiative, and existing source corpus remain intact.
Current release · V64 · September 15, 2026
The Procedural Shoehorn is now a publicly available instrument of justice.
V64 adds a permanent #instrument-of-justice section to the official Carpooling to Hell book page, promotes the free 99.5 Jetta Procedural Shoehorn STL on Thingiverse, adds a direct anchored share URL, native sharing, copy controls, and Facebook, LinkedIn, X, Bluesky, and email actions, and preserves the source-model attribution and CC BY-NC 4.0 noncommercial boundary.
Previous release · V63R2 · September 9, 2026
The speech now says exactly what it should — and reflows cleanly.
V63R2 removes the ungrounded “Good evening” opening and the remaining “tonight” references, corrects the speaker credential to “two-time graduate of York County Community College,” expands the NO declaration to reject preventable harm as normal or acceptable for children and families, fixes the special-page running header/footer, and converts PDF hard-wraps into semantic web paragraphs that resize cleanly across displays.
Previous combined source update
V61R2 — Complete Amazon Editions + Mobile-Hardened Stage 99½
This complete-site update gives readers distinct Kindle/paperback and hardcover Amazon links, identifies the Kindle Unlimited option, and retains the V60 phone-hardening layer on the standalone and embedded Stage 99½ rally without discarding the V58 Jetta Works engine or art.
Previous combined source update · V61R2 · September 4, 2026
The memoir is published—and Stage 99½ is hardened for the phone in your hand.
Carpooling to Hell is identified sitewide as a published memoir with a Kindle/paperback Amazon listing under Kindle ASIN B0HHJMCWC1 and a separate hardcover listing under ASIN B0HHJMXTPB. The Kindle edition is included with Kindle Unlimited for eligible subscribers. The book page, FAQ, structured data, publication facts, and campaign entry points now label each edition correctly. Stage 99½ retains the V58 source-matched Jetta Works rendering and rally engine while V60 provides fixed phone play, iPhone full-screen fallback, safe-area controls, auto-throttle, large touch controls, rotation recovery, pointer cleanup, wake lock, and mobile performance limits.
Preserved graphical release · V58 · August 31, 2026
Stage 99½ becomes the Jetta Works high-detail rally.
V58 preserves every V57 path, game identity, ticket award, and source record, then rebuilds Stage 99½ around a new source-matched top-down rendering of Justin’s actual black 1999½ Volkswagen Jetta. The playable car now visibly retains the closed roof and sunroof, silver mirror caps, multi-spoke wheels, Mk4 grille and headlamp treatment, body-kit stance, black paint, and Maine plate 9855 MD. The cabinet adds dynamic gravel and mud texture, rain and road spray, night-stage headlights, reflections, suspension movement, body yaw, skid marks, mud accumulation, pace notes, near-miss and drift scoring, layered engine and road sound, richer particles, confetti, and a modern rally telemetry console. Generic fictional clowns remain harmless arcade bonus targets with no gore.

Stage 99½ first put the actual 1999½ Jetta into the rally.
V57 introduced the second Carpooling to Hell driving game, the three-stage rally route, source-backed pickups, procedural hazards, drift, turbo, and the generic fictional clown confetti bonus. Its complete release controls remain preserved as the immediate rollback layer beneath the V58 graphical and mechanical rebuild.

Four modern cabinets, rebuilt as one polished arcade system.
V56 preserves every V55 path, source record, game, progress ID, ticket award, and local best-score key while polishing the four newest cabinets. Carpooling to Hell now has smoother steering, boost feedback, checkpoints, richer road scenery, combo scoring, and clearer mobile controls. The Maine Law Court Kangaroo Record Hop adds refined jump physics, stamina-driven pouch sprint, clearer record-order guidance, and an original animated kangaroo. York Judicial Center’s Admonish the Parent now runs multiple active service windows, urgency meters, a visible manufactured-cause reel, and an unresolved-merits counter. The Board Accountability Laundromat adds a three-cycle audit rail, active and sealed washer states, score callouts, fullscreen, haptics, and up to two audit shields that can block whitewash hazards.

Carpooling to Hell races. The Law Court hops. York admonishes the parent.
V55 adds three complete local browser games. The Procedural Grand Prix is a three-lane top-down racer with three exits, boost, record pickups, hazards, integrity, a childhood clock, and persistent best score. The Kangaroo Record Hop is a side-scrolling platformer with jump, double jump, duck, sprint, five appellate argument elements, and procedural fences. Admonish the Parent is a timed five-window courthouse reaction game whose quota is fourteen child-help requests and whose “due cause generator” supplies the satirical punch line. Keyboard, touch, mouse, optional synthesized sound, local state, reduced-motion handling, and three new progress awards are included.

The Board of Overseers now has an Accountability Laundromat.
V54 preserves every V53 file and interactive, then adds a genuinely playable five-lane laundromat to the Board record and the Public Accountability Arcade. Catch the exact claim, native source, date, witness, governing rule, contrary record, written reasons, and right of reply; dodge the rubber stamp, scope swap, no-interview shortcut, unread source, and other whitewash hazards; then lock three review loads in the green full-cycle zone. Keyboard, touch, mouse, pause, help, optional synthesized sound, local best score, and the eighteenth progress award are built in.

V47R1 retains the complete V47 site and adds the exact June 11-to-June 13 interval: 39 hours, 51 minutes, and 48 seconds. The original “over 48 hours notice” wording remains quoted, the evidentiary limit remains explicit, and the corrections ledger, source files, feed, search index, and manifests are synchronized.

What this release restores
The missing live-state changes are now reconstructed from known sources.
The public site exposed V39, V42, V44, and V45 markers at once and did not expose a reliable V46 release record. V46R1 makes the current replacement release explicit while preserving prior release artifacts as history.
Parts I-III are one visible series
The commentary archive, homepage, site directory, source center, feed, sitemap, internal search, and dedicated series page now identify all three installments in order.
August 21 objection analysis is source-controlled
A public-safe page and PDF preserve the integrated narrative, identify its evidentiary limits, and route readers to the Bedard, Board, implementation, and matrix records.
SEO and entity clarity
Patrick S. Bedard signals remain entity-first and source-limited.
The Bedard title, H1, description, visible entity summary, social image, structured data, correction path, and descriptive internal links remain aligned. The new objection-analysis page strengthens the topical cluster without presenting allegations as court or disciplinary findings.
