RICO in Iowa: Update & Call to Action

Section I: RICO Case — New Escalations, New Evidence, Same Broken System

Since the last article, Billy D. Frazier IV’s RICO case has taken a sharp and highly publicized turn. What began as a local battle over due process and disability rights has evolved into a multi-pronged federal challenge — aimed squarely at corrupt state actors, retaliatory government agencies, and procedural manipulation by the Iowa judiciary.

In late August 2025, Frazier filed a new emergency motion in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Iowa, seeking an immediate restraining order and injunctive relief to block DHS and child support enforcement from launching new retaliatory actions mid-litigation. The motion documents:
• A fraudulent child support claim naming a non-father as the biological parent of Frazier’s child;
• A new child abuse assessment against the child’s mother, Brittany Taylor Dockery — just months after a similar case was closed;
• A broader pattern of proxy retaliation, false reporting, and administrative abuse tied to Will’s federal civil rights complaint;
• 17 years of documented state retaliation, escalating now as discovery looms.

“These actions lack any legal basis,” Frazier writes, “and constitute proxy retaliation against Plaintiff through his child and the child’s mother.”

Among the legal grounds cited are the First and Fourteenth Amendments, ADA protections, and the constitutional right to family integrity. But perhaps most importantly, Frazier is pushing to extend these protections to all co-parents and children connected to the case — a bold move that could pave the way for class-action-level impact.

He has also filed a Notice of Case Manipulation, preserving his appellate record and alleging coordinated interference by local agencies seeking to delay or sabotage pending motions. A screenshot from his official court filings, submitted via Iowa eFile, shows multiple new pleadings — all with detailed documentation of what Frazier calls “procedural ambush tactics.”

But new filings reveal something even deeper: evidence that Chief Judge C.J. Williams may have predetermined the outcome of the case — issuing rulings before documents were even filed.

Key Evidence: Ruling Issued Before Motion Was Filed

Will Frazier now presents clear procedural proof that Chief Judge C.J. Williams ruled against him before his filings even existed.
• The judge denied Motion to Amend (Doc. 96) at 8:23 AM on August 18, 2025.
• Frazier’s Fifth Motion to Amend (Doc. 101) wasn’t filed until 11:11 AM on August 20, 2025.
• A second filing, Pro Se Notice (Doc. 102), was submitted three minutes later at 11:14 AM.

Screenshots of PACER & NEF records confirm:

A motion was denied two days before it was even entered into the court system.

What This Means for the Case

The record shows more than just aggressive dismissal — it shows judicial predetermination and potential obstruction of a pro se litigant’s constitutional rights.

Dismissed Before Fully Heard

The dismissal order included boilerplate language on judicial immunity, effectively shielding nearly all defendants from civil liability.

Locked Out from Amendment

On August 18, Judge Williams denied any future amendments — even though none had been filed yet. This procedural lockout suggests that any future legal effort was already doomed.

Live Filings Ignored

Despite filing a new amended complaint and notice on August 20, both documents appear to have been automatically disregarded.

Legal Argument Moving Forward

Will’s legal team — or Will himself, pro se — may argue that:
• The court pre-judged the outcome, violating due process.
• By denying motions before they were filed, the court refused to consider live filings on their merits.
• This establishes judicial bias and supports his broader RICO claim of systemic retaliation.

The case is now under appeal at the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals, where these procedural irregularities may weigh heavily in determining whether the dismissal stands.

Section II: The Eviction Fight — A New Battlefront, A Call for Backup

While Will Frazier battles state retaliation in court through his RICO case, he now faces a devastating new front: housing displacement. Frazier and his family have been served with an October 31st lease termination — a move he says is direct retaliation for his activism, legal filings, and growing public visibility. His disabled neighbor, also a co-plaintiff in a separate lawsuit, has reportedly been targeted as well.

In a public post that quickly began circulating across Facebook, Will wrote:

CITIZENS ASSEMBLE — I NEED YOUR HELP

“To control the people, you control the housing. For too long, families have been silenced with the threat of retaliation. Too many have lost their homes just for speaking out. Too many have been crushed under retaliatory rent hikes while landlords ignored repairs and pocketed the profits.

This fight started with an OWI, but what they tried to bury has only grown. It’s now RICO. It’s in district court — back in the lion’s den, where corruption was exposed — and the battle has expanded into HOUSING. Retaliation, harassment, fraud, and abuse: it’s all coming out in discovery.”

Frazier also announced that he has filed a joint lawsuit with his family and his disabled neighbor, naming the landlords and housing authorities responsible for years of unsafe conditions and retaliatory behavior. The goal, he says, is not just justice for himself — but for every tenant who’s ever been silenced.

“If you’ve faced issues with HUD, Cedar Rapids Housing, or landlords like Rick & Beth Alger — reach out. Your voice matters. Now’s the time.”

Now facing the loss of housing, a custody threat tied to potential displacement, and barriers to relocating due to ADA status and housing voucher restrictions, Will has launched a GoFundMe campaign to rally public support:

He closes with a powerful call to collective action:

“This is bigger than me. It’s about breaking the system of retaliation and giving the people back their power.

Please keep this going. Share it. Talk about it. Don’t let them keep hiding behind the same tricks.”
