- Due to the nature of spanking large companies with deep pockets and addressing corruption in general, The Julia Clark Organization has endured maleficence, directly and indirectly, against The JC Organization, peripheral structures, and our people.I am interested in knowing the time line of abuses; If possible the nature of the abuses and any other information surrounding the maleficence.

Wikileaks Organization and The Julia Clark Organization
- The Julia Clark Organization contacted Wikileaks via Mr. Julian Assange and the Ecuadorian embassy via H.E. Ana Albán Mora to express unity in the support of human rights.
The Julia Clark Organization for over a year has inspected and regarded The Wikileaks Organization. During this time The Julia Clark Organization has explored the fundamentals of Wikileaks. Though enjoyable task, Wikileaks is a very serious landscape. Observations have been limited to Wikileaks proper with a minor outlay into the Wikileaks party and its rift.
The Julia Clark Organization will publish limited discoveries, draw and develop in-depth studies , and broaden the scope of observations as time and funds permit.
