A Christmas Nativity scene with two Joseph’s and a children’s book about a black Santa and his white husband grabbed holiday headlines over the story of Crackhead Jesus. “Redemption: The Story of The Crackhead Jesus Trials Part II- The Second Coming of the Three Muses- Chapter 1”, the first in a series of ten modern-art-graphic-novels that tell the story of the alleged serial-killer-spinal-surgeon operating out of Mercy in Baltimore, Maryland, premiered at Art Basel Miami Art Week 2017. The work of modern-art-gonzo-journalism reveals serious allegations of FDA fraud, sexual misconduct and deadly toxic leadership being covered up in D.C. area hospitals as public trust in mainstream news media continues to plummet.
The New York born Latino author, Victor-Hugo Vaca II, reached over 220,000 listeners in over seventy countries, appearing on several radio talk shows and podcasts promoting his censored book. The question of why the Washington Post failed to investigate recent allegations of a serial-killer spinal-surgeon in its own back yard, in favor of using valuable resources to investigate forty-year old allegations against Judge Roy Moore, in Alabama, days before a special Senate election, arose in conversation, begging the question, “Is the Washington Post choosing politics over public trust in its own community?”
Whatever the answer, just as Harvey Weinstein allegations festered for decades, the more the story of Crackhead Jesus is censored and buried, the more the Streisand Effect takes over and the more people around the world find out about allegations surrounding Charles C. Edwards MD, as the maverick artist plans to tour the United States appearing on talk shows, in support of his groundbreaking modern art graphic novel series, throughout 2018.
In 2017, white men in power positions, like Judge Roy Moore and Matt Lauer were exposed as alleged sexual predators using toxic leadership and abuse of power to exploit women and children. News media has also protected and enabled powerful white men, like Harvey Weinstein and Charlie Rose, by suppressing decades old rumors and allegations of misdeeds. Evidence shows, The Washington Post, Miami Herald and Baltimore Sun have buried years old rumors and allegations, of a serial-killer-spinal-surgeon nicknamed, Crackhead Jesus, stalking the United States from Baltimore, Maryland.
Public trust could only wonder why news outlets instead favored covering stories about a woman who claims President Donald Trump should be impeached because he once asked for her phone number, instead of reporting on serious allegations that an orthopaedic surgeon of the spine is an alleged serial-killer performing experimental spinal surgery on human subjects without FDA approval.
The surgeon, who operates on the human fiber of being has been lauded as a pillar of the community in People, Newsweek and 20/20. He has also been described in newspapers as a wealthy slumlord and a criminal CEO, using lawyers to manipulate a two-tiered U.S. justice system to avoid jail time.
Victor-Hugo created modern-art-gonzo-journalism and travelled throughout the United States with the Modern Art Music Movement producing live art with world famous bands, including members of The Goo Goo Dolls, Cheap Trick, Boston and The Wailers, to name a few, in order to raise global awareness about growing allegations that Charles C. Edwards MD is an alleged serial-killer spinal-surgeon. The works of modern-art-gonzo-journalism inspired an award-winning film titled, “Crackhead Jesus: The Movie”, which recently made world headlines, after the U.S. Supreme Court “Slants” trademark ruling.
The controversial film which has been screened internationally and took “Best Screenplay” honors at the La Romana International Film Festival, was produced by the Modern Art Music Movement during a seventy-two-hour film competition in Delray Beach, Florida, to raise awareness about a clear and present danger in the Baltimore, Maryland area, where the maverick artist once lived, while serving as a Naval Academy Midshipman officer at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, before receiving an honorable discharge as a whistleblower in the early 1990’s.
Over the course of a decade in exploring the character of someone entrusted with tearing into the fiber of ones being, the following list of allegations surfaced, which allowed the artist to paint a gruesome picture of an alleged serial-killer-spinal-surgeon, using toxic leadership and abuse of power, to rack up an extensive body count supported by the same journalistic apathy that allowed Harvey Weinstein to perpetuate his evil acts for years.
The following allegations involving Charles C. Edwards MD should give people, pause, if not nightmares.
Charles C. Edwards MD – Orthopaedic surgeon of the spine at Mercy Medical Center allegedly performed radical unauthorized experimental surgery on patients without IRB approval for at least three years (1992-1995) every Thursday with doctors and nurses that he chose personally, to ensure that those assisting him in the unauthorized experimental surgery were unfamiliar with how to perform scientific experiments in a proper way.
Allegedly Charles C. Edwards MD performed radical unauthorized experimental surgery on patients without IRB approval at least forty times per year and performed experimental surgery on patients despite having IRB approval revoked or denied. If so, all deaths in these cases should be looked into as possible homicides.
Under FDA regulations, an IRB is an appropriately constituted group that has been formally designated to review and monitor biomedical research involving human subjects. This group review serves an important role in the protection of the rights and welfare of human research subjects.
The purpose of IRB review is to assure, both in advance and by periodic review, that appropriate steps are taken to protect the rights and welfare of humans participating as subjects in the research. To accomplish this purpose, IRBs use a group process to review research protocols and related materials (e.g., informed consent documents and investigator brochures) to ensure protection of the rights and welfare of human subjects of research.
Allegedly Charles C. Edwards MD has performed radical unauthorized experimental surgery on patients without IRB approval since 1992 and was reported to the FDA in 2002.
Charles C. Edwards MD is also alleged to have engaged in numerous acts of sexual misconduct in the workplace including exposing himself nude, to male and female staff in his office and in hallways in the hospital and of performing sex acts with his secretary/mistress, Linda Haynes, in front of numerous colleagues at work in 1995.
Allegedly Charles C. Edwards MD controlled Linda Haynes, didn’t trust her to be by herself and he forbade her from going to the Hospital cafeteria by herself.
Allegedly there is a well-known story amongst hospital staff of an extraordinary incident of workplace sexual misconduct by Charles C. Edwards MD that was witnessed by renowned hand surgeon Thomas E. Gillespie MD, University of Maryland, orthopaedic department, wherein the now deceased Gillespie demanded the hospital higher ups stop covering for Edwards improprieties.
Allegedly in 1993, Charles C. Edwards MD admitted to exposing himself in front of Thomas E. Gillespie MD at the University of Maryland.
Allegedly the President of the University spoke to the head of personnel regarding concerns of Charles C. Edwards MD
Allegedly FDA data is being falsified by Charles C. Edwards MD.
Allegedly Charles C. Edwards MD uses abuse of power to intimidate research assistants into falsifying FDA data.
Allegedly members of the University of Maryland spinal secession study group witnessed Charles C. Edwards MD engage in sexual misconduct covered up by hospital officials.
Allegedly the University of Maryland Baltimore University Hospital has covered up all allegations of wrongdoing filed against Charles C. Edwards MD.
Allegedly the Head of Surgery Department, Anthony Imbembo MD, expressed his concerns about Charles C. Edwards MD to hospital human resources personnel management.
As public trust in newspapers erodes, the Lied To Generation turns to modern-art-gonzo-journalism to examine ignored decades old allegations that make Harvey Weinstein look-like Matt Lauer in today’s world.
“Tracking a serial-killer is like trying to put together a moving jigsaw puzzle.” – Victor-Hugo Vaca II
Stunning Performance By The McCoy’s Frontman, Inspires Music Industry Icons To Produce Historic Rock And Roll Memorabilia, On Canvas, In Fort Myers, Florida.
On February 24, 2012, Rick Derringer walked into a room full of rock and roll icons gathered for rehearsal and blew everyone in sight away, with one of the most electrifying performances, any of the music industry legends had ever witnessed. The energy in the Sidney And Berne Davis Art Center, went from amazing to beyond intense, when Rick Derringer stepped on stage, grabbed the microphone and belted through a ferocious version of ,”Rock And Roll Hoochie Koo“, that left everyone in the hall breathless. The remarkable moment of Rock and Roll history was captured in a 41×56, work of art titled, “Live-Love-Flow“, manifested by the Maverick Artist Victor-Hugo Vaca II, who was specially selected as an intuitive artist with synesthesia, to perform with the entertainment industry All-Stars, as part of the Modern Art Music Movement™ (MAMM).

THE MAVERICK ARTIST VICTOR-HUGO VACA II, CENTER STAGE, SURROUNDED BY ROCK & ROLL ARISTOCRACY AT THE MODERN ART MUSIC MOVEMENT ALL-STAR MAMM JAM IN FORT MYERS, FLORIDA.
“Rock and Roll Hoochie Koo” by Rick Derringer peaked at 23 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. It was first released on the “Johnny Winter And“ LP (1970), with Rick Derringer and the McCoys (#1 “Hang On Sloopy”) backing up Johnny Winter. Derringer decided to re-record the song for his first solo single, on the 1974, “All American Boy“, LP.”Hoochie Koo” is short for “Hoochie Koochie,” which is sexual slang popularized by Muddy Waters in his song “Hoochie Coochie Man”.

Rick Derringer’s clever lyrics subversively imply female genitalia and the act of copulation:
“Hope you all know what I’m talkin’ about.
The way they wiggle that thing really knocks me out.
Gettin’ high all the time, hope you all are too.
C’mon little pussy gonna do it to you.”

Like the Maverick Artist Victor-Hugo Vaca II, Rick Derringer was raised Roman Catholic and attended a private Catholic school, for eight-years, during his youth. After a time of intense personal struggle, Rick Derringer was reborn in his faith and rewrote the lyrics to, “Rock And Roll Hoochie Koo”, reflecting a less sexual and more spiritual mood:
“Couldn’t stop shouting when it first took hold.
It was an awesome night at the old church hall.
There was an old time preacher he was laying it down.
Heard the word and you know I can’t forget that sound.
Read the word, live it too.
Let the truth be seen in you.”
“LIVE-LOVE-FLOW” (41X56) BY THE MAVERICK ARTIST VICTOR-HUGO VACA II, CAPTURES THE UNIQUE MOMENT, WHEN RICK DERRINGER JOINED THE MODERN ART MUSIC MOVEMENT ALL-STARS, FOR A ROUSING RENDITION OF HIS CLASSIC ANTHEM, “ROCK AND ROLL HOOTCHIE KOO.”

“Wells Fargo Usury” was created on September 1, 2013 by the Maverick Artist Victor-Hugo Vaca II. Wall Street banks made billions on securitized subprime mortgages. When the bubble burst 99% of the world population was negatively impacted by the ripple effects. The main culprits have escaped punishment, not one top executive-level banker has been personally punished or lost their job. Tax deductible fines are levied against banks for criminal acts, not prosecutions. The lesson learned is, crime pays for the 1%.
VOODOO ECONOMICS
While lame stream media distracts people by feeding them bread and circus, disguised as news and information, banks labeled, “too-big-to-fail”, are stealing money from customers with impunity, because they can.
Banks steal billions of dollars but only pay millions in fines that are usually tax deductible. So the lesson learned is: crime pays, if you are a corporate entity protected by a corrupt, “pay for play”, government.
BANKS ARE ABOVE THE LAW: TOO-BIG-TO FAIL MEANS TOO-BIG-TO-JAIL AND THAT TRANSLATES INTO FISCAL ANARCHY THAT ENABLES ECONOMIC TERRORISM.
Wells Fargo, the largest mortgage lender in the United States, admitted to deceiving the U.S. government into insuring thousands of risky mortgages and agreed to pay $1.2 billion to put to rest claims that it engaged in reckless lending under a Federal Housing Administration program that left a taxpayer subsidized, government insurance fund to clean up the mess.
Wells Fargo engaged in a reckless trifecta of poor training, deficient loan underwriting and poor disclosure in the government-backed loan program.
ECONOMIC TERRORISM DEFINED IN MODERN-ART-GONZO-JOURNALISM.
Wells Fargo was fined $3.6 million because the bank acted illegally by charging on-time payers with late fees, failed to inform borrowers of steps they could take to minimize fees and left credit report errors uncorrected, which resulted in some misled student loan borrowers paying unnecessary fees.
“Wells Fargo hit borrowers with illegal fees and deprived others of critical information needed to effectively manage their student loan accounts. Consumers should be able to rely on their servicer to process and credit payments correctly and to provide accurate and timely information.”- Richard Cordray, Director Of Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
CONTEMPORARY ART MEME
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau assessed nearly $36 million in penalties against Wells Fargo for the banks’ role in a “mortgage kickback” scheme. The financial regulator charged Wells Fargo bank employees with entering into an illegal arrangement with a now-defunct Maryland mortgage title company, under which the title company gave cash, marketing materials and consumer information in exchange for bank business. The CFPB determined in its investigation that more than 100 Wells Fargo loan officers in Maryland and Virginia entered into the illegal arrangement,
“These banks allowed their loan officers to focus on their own illegal financial gain rather than on treating consumers fairly.” – Richard Cordray, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Director.
CONTEMPORARY ART MEME
Wells Fargo was fined $81.6 million for failing to provide bankrupt homeowners with legally required notices of mortgage payment increases which denied homeowners the opportunity to challenge the accuracy of mortgage payment increases. By failing to properly notify homeowners, Wells Fargo violated federal bankruptcy rules that took effect in December 2011 that imposed more detailed disclosure requirements to ensure proper accounting of fees and charges on homeowners in bankruptcy.
CONTEMPORARY ART MEME
Wells Fargo, agreed to pay $85 million to settle charges that it falsified loan documents of its borrowers and pushed borrowers into higher interest subprime mortgages even though they qualified for a mortgage with lower interest rates. Over 10,000 borrowers were steered into more expensive subprime mortgages with higher interest rates or had their loan paperwork falsified by Wells Fargo personnel. Wells Fargo personnel were driven to the fraudulent activity in order to meet their company goals required for consideration to receive bonuses.
CONTEMPORARY ART MEME
Wells Fargo agreed to pay a $70 million penalty to settle legal claims over improper activity including the robo-signing of foreclosure documents, faulty payment-change notices filed in bankruptcy courts and faulty escrow calculations. Wells Fargo employees acted as robo-signers to speed up the foreclosure process with falsified or inadequate underlying documentation.

Excerpt from Kate Hickey article titled, “Continue To Descend.” featuring “The Three Muses” by Maverick Artist Victor-Hugo Vaca II on the top right corner of the page:
MAVERICK ARTIST VICTOR-HUGO VACA JR WITH JEFF KOONS IN NY ARTS MAGAZINE/CHINA ARTS
“This February, a group of 11 artists who hail from four different countries, explored the idea of “descent.” From moral to physical to mental, the idea of tumbling, floating and sliding downwards was probed through a wonderful array of paintings. Through planes going into descent, trees entering the autumnal season, the hand of god dropping toward a human eye and wonderful examples of abstract expressionism. The 11 contributors were Victor-Hugo Vaca II, Jeff Koons, Umberto Torricelli, Bata Musicki, Dylan Farrell, Kai Lintumaa, Duriye Yuksel, Trey Reed, Gencay Kasapci, Lucy DeLange and Andrea Serrano.
MAVERICK ARTIST VICTOR-HUGO VACA JR WITH JEFF KOONS IN NY ARTS MAGAZINE/CHINA ARTS
Among Victor Hugo’s works was the painting The Three Soldiers. This dark and sullen image filled with black and reds brings forth a feeling of impending doom. Of his own work, Hugo says: “It aims to induce feelings in the viewer which lead to self-examination. I paint what I see around me.”
Try Peace: Peace Is Cool.
The iconic image of “The Three Soldiers”, by Victor-Hugo Vaca II, was displayed alongside works by Jeff Koons, the Pop-art provocateur, who has broken a world record for a price paid for a single artwork by a living artist at auction, and “The Three Soldiers” painting was also featured in the celebrity driven, “Try Peace”, campaign, from the documentary titled, “The Marketing Of Peace”, produced, written and directed by Victor-Hugo Vaca II, which included members of The Goo Goo Dolls, Berlin, The English Beat (Dave Schulz), The Smiths, Electronic and Modest Mouse (Johnny Marr), UFC Champion (Tito Ortiz) and “Porn Stars For Peace” adult film stars (Ron Jeremy, Joanna Angel, Kaylani Lei, Trisha Uptown and Brea Bennet) to promote peace, love and an end to the U.S. invasion and war in Iraq.

“How would you market peace? The modern-art-gonzo-journalism being manifested through the Modern Art Music Movement™ , is not about dwelling in darkness, it is about shedding light, peacefully, on the wisdom of ages, raining down on humanity, at this moment of social unrest and awakening. The actions we take as a whole, with the knowledge we are given as one, shapes our immediate future eternally. Try peace. Peace is cool.” – Maverick Artist Victor-Hugo Vaca II
The Artist As Matador In The Ring Of Life: Live, Love, Flow
In the Age of Donald Trump, Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton, failing to revisit anything that manifests toxicity in water or world leadership, is a recipe for disaster: Because, both elements are essential for life to exist in civilizations that prosper. It is no wonder, that global influence makers and sociologists have their eyes set on places like Flint, Michigan and the leadership laboratory in Annapolis, Maryland, the United States Naval Academy, as canaries in the social-contract-coal-mine, of human nature and evolution in human history.
