Joseph Wesley Newman: Free Energy-His Gift to Humanity

By David Rountree

Joseph Wesley Newman was at war with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. He had affidavits from thirty experts who all swore that his energy machine did what he said. However, the Patent Office still refused to issue a patent claiming it was an impossible perpetual motion machine. In his legal appeal, a court-appointed special master tested the device and concluded that it worked despite violating the Laws of Thermodynamics. Newman made countless public appearances to promote his energy machine. After appearing on The Tonight Show, Johnny Carson said they got more response to the interview with Joseph Newman than from any other guest they had ever had. A film, Newman, released in 2015, documented his struggles with the invention, but Joseph Newman was much more than a frustrated inventor. He ran for President twice, Married his secretary and her eight-year-old daughter as commanded by God, and became a self-appointed messiah, warning the world of coming cataclysmic events. Newman claimed God had commanded him to save the world. He never stopped promoting the energy machine but sabotaged any real opportunity to get it into production. Many thought that Newman eventually realized his device did not work as he first thought and became a con artist, luring people to invest in what he claimed to be the most important invention since the wheel.
