Six IT professionals, five black and one white (Kendrick Barnes, Gary L. Walker, Demetrius K. Harper, David A. Zirpolo, Clinton A. Stewart and David A. Banks), had a dream of developing law enforcement software that would assist local, state, and federal agencies in sharing information. They built a small company (IRP Solutions) that concentrated on developing a software application called CILC, which stands for Case Investigative Life Cycle. This software was developed to assist law enforcement in investigating a case through to prosecution. The necessity of this type of software was overly apparent as the government indicated the main reason 9/11 was able to occur was because of the inability of government agencies to share information.

Unfortunately for these six men (the IRP-6), their patriotic love for their country was rewarded with 7 to 11 year sentences in federal prison. On February 9th 2005, IRP Solutions (an 18 employee black owned company in Colorado Springs, Colorado) was raided by over twenty FBI agents.

Live tonight at 8 p.m. Eastern/5 p.m. Pacific, we will discussing the “IRP6” case with Sam Thurman, president of A Just Cause and Cliff Stewart, brother of one of the IRP6 men. A Just Cause is a 501(c)(3) organization that was established in 2005 by a group of concerned citizens who were witness to a federal criminal case that was grossly over-criminalized. After seeing how a case can be misconstrued as criminal, and peoples’ lives turned upside down, A Just Cause was formed to fight abuse and misuse of power within the justice system.
