Section 173A(2) of the Summary Proceedings Act:

At the hearing on 22nd September 2009 corrupt amicus curiae Bryan Yeoman tried to make me sign a document to the Court from the Police prosecutor, which claimed that:

"By consent of all parties of this hearing, written statements by:
Constable Laura Rhymer
shall be admitted as evidence as if these persons had given oral evidence and shall be admitted notwithstanding non-compliance of all of the requirements of Section 173A(2) of the Summary Proceedings Act 1957"
       - among other things.

I refused to sign it because it was a corrupt attempt to prevent the police officer in charge of the case (Rhymer) from giving evidence in person, or being cross examined.  She is lying in saying that she had cause to arrest me and in saying that she did arrest me.  She knew there was no evidence whatsoever that I had perverted the course of justice, and considerable evidence that her superior officer Constable Peter Cletus Cunningham had grossly perverted the course of justice in refusing to charge Murphy and Greig with the attack on me on 11th February 2009.  She knew that Cunningham had encouraged Murphy to break into my house and steal the disk containing evidence not only of his own attack on me, but also of the incompetence and corruption of the police in releasing the 46 audio tracks on the disk but not the two I requested, my own call to 111 and that of Claire Cook and Kelly Wilson.  Rhymer never arrested me.  She repeatedly asked me to go with her to Masterton because I was "going to be charged."  She knew there was no evidence to support any such charge and that it was grossly corrupt to arrest me or charge me, and she didn't want to be involved, which is why she didn't turn up to Court on the 8th December 2009, because police knew that Judge Behrens would see through their lies like he did last time, and are hoping to get a corrupt Judge (like Davidson or Thomas).

Furthermore, when I looked up Section 173A(2) of the Summary Proceedings Act, I discovered that it was repealed in 2008, and apparently replaced with this:

173 Persons who may give evidence under assumed name

• 
  

“(1) An undercover police officer (within the meaning of section 108 of the Evidence Act 2006)—

• 
  
  “(a) may make a written statement, or give oral evidence, in the name by which the officer was known during the relevant investigation; and

• 
  
  “(b) may sign that statement, or the record of that evidence, in that name.

“(2) A witness who is the subject of an application for an anonymity order made under section 110 or 112 of the Evidence Act 2006, or who is the subject of an anonymity order made under either of those sections,—

• 
  
  “(a) may make a written statement, or give oral evidence, using the term ‘witness’ followed by an initial or mark; and

• 
  
  “(b) may sign that statement, or the record of that evidence, in that manner.

“(3) This section overrides any contrary provision in this Part.

Here are my written instructions sent to the lawyer assigned to represent me, on 15 October 2009, following the outrageous outburst from Judge Davidson and my imprisonment after police deliberately lied to and intimidated a local family offering me a bail address:

"My instructions are that a copy be requested of the audio recording of the proceedings heard before Judge Davidson on 29^th and 30^th September and a formal complaint lodged about the actions and language of the Judge, in particular the shouted rant about how it's time I learned that the world doesn't revolve around me, the repeated shouting of “shut up, you shut up” and the imprisonment at Arohata.

Judge Davidson recently heard the matter of my private prosecution against Rachel Betteridge and he heard the original charge against me based on Betteridge's perjurous 'evidence'.

He excused Betteridge's appearance, which makes a mockery of my imprisonment.

He was told repeatedly during the hearing of the charges against me that Betteridge was giving perjurous evidence on oath during the hearing, and that we had evidence of it right there in the Court in the form of the phone with the extremely offensive and threatening messages from Betteridge on it. Davidson shut the hearing down, dismissing the charges before the evidence, or any evidence for the defence, could be produced. After being informed that perjury was being committed and that there was indisputable evidence of it in the Court I believe that Judge Davidson had a duty to respond to that serious allegation at the time, and again when he heard the private prosecution. I insist that the matter is addressed now.

I instruct that a formal complaint is made to the Manager for Courts regarding the practise of Liz Harpleton and Gary Wilson conspiring to pervert the course of justice. Having the prosecutor's live in lover acting as Court Registrar is completely unacceptable. Harpleton made a submission to two JP's while she was sitting on the bench assisting them in her role, on behalf of the police, asking for an ajournment, even though the matter had been set down for formal proof. Ken Daniels was present and left a message on my phone that day to say that he was appalled at what he had seen and heard in the Court.

I instruct that a written complaint is submitted to the PCA immediately regarding the decisions of the police to proceed with the prosecutions against me when they knew perfectly well that the evidence showed indisputably that I had not sent any offensive messages at all and that Betteridge and her husband had sent extremely serious threats and abuse to me, and the continued refusal of the police to charge them when the evidence clearly exists that they committed these serious crimes, and the police were happy to lay charges and proceed with a prosecution against me on the basis of no evidence at all, and police refused to even seek any information from the telecommunications company let alone look at the evidence provided to them in the form of the statements of the two Justices of the Peace, Ken English and George Groombridge..

I instruct that an appeal is lodged immediately regarding the refusal of Judge Davidson to award me costs in those matters.

I instruct that an appeal is lodged regarding the convictions for failing to stop, etc.

I instruct that an appeal is immediately lodged regarding Judge Davidson's decision to imprison me. The police deliberately lied to Bill Armstrong and told him that the Court had directed me to reside at 1 Brooklyn Rd and imposed a curfew which required the police to come to that address and check that I was there twice a night. Bill and Jennifer Armstrong have already written statements about being harassed by the police about me. Jennifer's statement about a recent incident describes how she felt frightened and intimidated after Constable Harvey Pope demanded entry to her home stating that he had the right to come in because he was in fresh pursuit of a criminal, to issue me with another bike helmet ticket and a letter about harrassing Tuakana Greig which is nothing but a pack of utter lies. Greig has physically attacked me on numerous occasions in front of numerous witnesses and come to my home and attacked me on two occasions. Bill would not have refused if the police had not lied about the curfew. Furthermore, Constable Cadwallader issued me with another bike helmet recently but refused to give me the disclosure I was entitled to regarding these matters. I would not come to the door to accept the ticket as he demanded, and Rachel Armstrong refused his demand to come inside to issue it to me personally so he gave it to her to pass on to me. Cadwallader then went to the Armstrong's, and other addresses of my friends, repeatedly, claiming to have disclosure to give me, but refused on every occasion to leave it there for me to collect.

I don't have a car and cannot get employment or accomodation because of the lies told by the police which are evidenced by the letter to the South End School, and suffering extreme financial hardship because of the excessive fines being deducted from my invalid benefit for not wearing a bike helmet in spite of the letters from my doctor. The bail bond refers to an “evidential address” - where is the definition of this? I don't even know what an evidential address is and doubt the term has any meaning or legal standing. I am forced to stay at various locations dependant on restrictions such as bad weather or darkness which make cycling unsafe. For these reasons I will not be dictated to as to where I sleep, it is an outrageous breach of my human rights.

I instruct that a letter be written to the Police Complaints Authority and to the South End School immediately about the letter I received, and the matter of my complaints of serious violence and child abuse against Tuakana Greig and her partner. Tuakana Greig limped into Court on the 30^th  

with a big cut on her face and a black eye, she'd come straight from the hospital which is why she was late

.

I instruct that a formal complaint is made to the Human Rights Commissioner regarding my imprisonment, which was based on the lies of the police. I require the audiotape of the hearing because I heard Judge Davidson clearly refuse the request of the prosecutor that a curfew be imposed, and I heard the Judge give reasons why not. The prosecutor heard it and the police deliberately lied to Bill Armstrong and I request that an affidavit from Mr Armstrong be prepared, and also an affidavit from John Shields, who witnessed an attack on me by Greig outside East Taratahi Building Supplies in Wong Place. John Shields knows that I was nowhere near her address at all and I had come to his workshop to speak with him and gone straight back to my car and was still speaking to him when Greig ran down the road and attacked me.

The Wairarapa police are conspiring to pervert the course of justice, not me. I instruct that a letter be immediately written to the Ombudsmen regarding the refusal of the police to provide all information regarding the attack on me by Michael Murphy and Tuakana Greig at my home on 11^th February 2009, particularly the audiotape of the call from Claire Cook and Kelly Wilson to emergency services. This request is directly relevant to the current charges, and to the serious risk of violent child abuse, and is extremely urgent. The audiotape of a call from another witness has been released three times and there is no valid reason not to release the tape I have requested. The transcript is not sufficient because of inaccuraies between the transcripts and audiotape of other related calls which have been released. I have all personal details, names, addresses, phone number, etc of Cook and Wilson so there is no reason to withhold them.

I gave these, and other verbal instructions at the Court on the 29^th and 30^th and I want them all to be carried out.

Lawyers - Chris Wingate's perspective:

The legal profession works as a business not a profession

The legal profession works as a business not a profession. Too many lawyers and judges are quite simply, parasites on society. They have bound us in red tape destroying micro and macro economic structures. The damage is huge.

Collectively, and sadly, they are a self serving narcissistic group of businessman who protect and foster their cashflow industry planting seeds for new legislation that creates new business. They control outcomes because each additional hour is huge income and to them and peoples problems are too good to settle quick.

Although lawyers owe a fiduciary duty to their clients, they are in a conflict of breaching that duty of care by their self serving control to earn obscene income, versus the needs of the client. The justice system has been undermined by lawyers who are sadly scamming the public and causing us all grief.

In her review of lawyers, New Zealand's Dame Margaret found lawyers taking backhanders, charging illegal "top-up" fees and grouping together to defraud the legal aid system. She was horrified as she visited courthouses and found lawyers and defendants "abusing the system to the detriment of clients, the legal aid system, the courts and the taxpayer". And that she said was only a tip of the iceberg. "The longer I talked to people, the more I found," Dame Margaret said. "I think I could have gone on forever."

We urgently need legislation to stop lawyers and judges deciding the conduct of their own members. Conflicts of interest are too great to allow self regulation.

For years the legal system has rejected appeals for the law to blend in more closely with public policy considerations. They claim the system is the best we have got. After spending millions and millions on lawyers in Arklow vs Maclean, all I can say to that is crap!

But I don't hold my breath for legislative protection because lawyers control parliament and politicians are too busy with their own conflict of interest, permanently campaigning to keep their job. And what does that mean? - they ignore you.

The only answer I can see on the horizon is the public to understand government is established to serve us.We own it, so we need to set the rules that control those who protect their own. Fiduciary legislative law is the only answer. And together with the removal of crown and judicial immunity any attempts by politicians and lawyers/legal society to self serve would be dealt with before a jury.

And yes, that would mean final decisions would be subject to the scrutiny of a special jury. Because if not, we don't have democracy, we have a dictatorship. And none of us have signed up for that.

So next time you have to deal with some idiot in power just concider how his actions of failure would appear before a jury- the people's constitutional jury. Do you think they would get away with self serving negligent conduct?

Lies (by the police), Lawyers and Legal Aid - September 2010 update

After being assaulted again last weekend by Constable Paul Dallinger, previously of Dannevirke, and his new mates including, corrupt Masterton police prosecutor Greg Peters, after I went to the Carterton Police station to report the theft of my property by local methamphetamine addict Rachel Taylor, and recent assaults by Rachel's mate Wayne Friend and his other low life mates, and request assistance from the police to access and remove my belongings from where I was living until very recently, I now have to go to Court again today, after police wasted Court time on two separate  days last week, after charging me yet again with trivial offences I didn't commit in a pathetic attempt to make me out to be a criminal.  Talk about pot calling the kettle black!  Running out of time to get to Masterton,

_________________________________________________________________

Police prosecutor Gary Wilson and Court Registry Officer Liz Harpleton have been perverting the course of justice in the Masterton District Court for years.  They conspired with others to issue a warrant for my arrest on the 16th February 2010 in the Masterton Court, on the basis of information that they knew was false, namely: that I had failed to appear in the District Court on that day.  I was not due to appear in Court that day.  

Charges of perverting the course of justice and escaping from custody were laid together by corrupt Community Constable Peter Cletus Cunningham in April 2009, both charges relating to the same matter, and both charges relating to an attack on me in my home by Michael Murphy, the witness in this case.  Cunningham has refused to charge Murphy with that attack (or anybody, for that matter), pretending it didn't happen.  

When I obtained indisputable evidence that it did happen, in the form of evidence that there were three independent witnesses who called emergency services as they witnessed the attack, all of whom described a violent and unprovoked attack.  Upon learning that I had obtained this evidence, Murphy came back to my home to try and steal the evidence.  Some Police officers tried to prevent me getting this evidence, saying "According to the Privacy Act you are not entitled to information that is created by other people" - which is, of course, utter rubbish and completely untrue.

Corrupt Police officers and Court officials, and amicus curiae Bryan Yeoman, have been trying to separate the two charges that were laid together ever since, because they think they have a better chance of success with winning one or both of the hearings if they can do this.

The other thing they've been trying to do is excuse the attendance of the police officer ostensibly in charge of the case, Constable Laura Rhymer, and ensure that she doesn't have to give evidence or be cross examined in front of a Judge and jury on the so called "evidence" contained in her statements and affidavits, and the contents of her Police notebook, and to try and ensure that her word that she arrested me is taken for granted by the Court without question or scrutiny, so that the question of whether or not I "escaped from lawful custody" becomes twisted and manipulated.  My position is that I was never "arrested" and so could never have "escaped custody", which the Court upheld, acquitting me of the charge. 

At which point the Crown scandalously decided to further pervert the course of justice by using lawful powers for an unlawful purpose by using the Criminal Procedure (Mentally Impaired Persons) Act and the Mental Health Act, in order to detain me in a high security mental asylum for months on end and forcibly medicate me in order to derail the criminal trial on the remaining indictment of "perverting the course of justice" by saying that I was effectively 'mad' and 'delusional'.  The evidence of this is utterly indisputable.  I was only released, and the charge dismissed, after writing my own application to the High Court for a judicial inquiry into the matters.  The response to this was to transfer me to another facility in order to negate the application and appoint yet more lawyers to tell me they didn't know what the delay was in having my application dealt with, until I discovered how it had been discontinued, and insisted it was immediately reinstated, which I did on 15th June, the very same day the Crown suddenly announced it intended to offer no evidence on the charge of perverting the course of justice because "it wasn't in the public interest" all of a sudden.  Yeah, right.

Corrupt amicus curiae and crown prosecutor Michael Snape tried to make me sign an agreement that Constable Laura Rhymer not be called to give evidence in Court, and that her written statement that she arrested me and I escaped from custody, be admitted unchallenged.  They are worried that she will be questioned about other matters as well as this one, such as why she has refused to take a complaint about Hayden Rose smashing a window at my home and making serious threats, in spite of numerous complaints from me and another woman present at the time, and other matters.  

Police are also responsible for engineering the bail address to the very same one that the police prosecutor opposed, as described in the email below, because of alleged concerns for my safety.  

Evidence shows that I tried to draw this to the attention of the Court on the 9th March 2010.  An email from Bryan Yeoman to Michael Snape (crown prosecutor) and Pearl Christian, Wellington District Court officer - but no copy was sent to me - records that "Ms Raue also ought a Variation of Bail to allow her to return to a "no fixed abode" setting.  Judge Barry was not willing to do this and told Ms Raue to file a proper written Variation of Bail Application, file and serve it on the Crown and then the Court would give it hearing time.  Ms Raue protested this decision and in the end Judge Barry stood up and said he would retire if the Accused would not leave the dock from where she was arguing the point.  She did so and left Courtroom.  

Outside Ms Raue abused me and made various demands and reiterated that she did not want Mr Sainsbury as her Counsel, and she did not want me as the Amicus Curiae either.

The end point is that there are the matters I raised in my letter of 12th February as pretrial issues to resolve - can you please advise what disclosure matters can be addressed without reference back to the Court and then perhaps we can determine what other issues should be set down for Pre Trial hearing (no time was allocated at all today as no proper written Applications had been made on her behalf to the Court).  

Is it appropriate to have both Counts in the one indictment ?

Please advise.

Thanks,

Bryan Yeoman.

_______________________________________________________________________________

This is why I requested all information from the Court!  I have never seen the letters referred to, notes of phone calls, etc, the Court refuses to listen to me when I try and tell them that their decision directly contradicts another recent decision on the matter and puts me in danger of violence as indeed has now happened.

Yeoman and the prosecutor were told off by Judge Behrens for continually trying to split up these charges!  Judge Behrens ordered that they be heard together on the 8th December, when the police didn't turn up for Court again.

I went to the Carterton Police station last weekend (4th or 5th September) to request protection and make complaints of assault and burglary/theft at the address and was assaulted by Constable Paul Dallinger at the Carterton and Masterton Police station, illegally detained again, and falsely charged with more trivial offences myself, for which I have to travel to Masterton again tomorrow to appear.  

The evidence of my complaints of burglary and assault, requests for assistance and protection have all been ignored.

Lawyer Ainslie Hewton acted corruptly while her firm was representing me, culminating in the hearing before Judge Behrens QC on the 8th December 2009.

Judge Behrens isn’t stupid, or corrupt.  The police know that, so they didn’t turn up on the 8th December, and they wasted the time of the Court as they have done countless times in the past few years.

Judge Behrens asked the prosecutor why the officer in charge of the case, Constable Laura Rhymer wasn’t there.  The prosecutor replied that she was on annual leave.  

Judge Behrens enquired further as to when this leave was applied for by Ms Rhymer, and was informed that she had applied for it about two working days before the Court hearing, knowing full well that her appearance was essential to the hearing.  

Judge Behrens expressed his extreme dissatisfaction with this inexcusable waste of Court time by the Police.

Judge Behrens asked if there was an up to date medical report on the effect of the ongoing proceedings on my health, and a lawyer from Ainslie Hewton’s firm referred the Judge to the very same psychiatric report that firm had been instructed to appeal and challenge on the ground of serious inaccuracy.

The report contains  considerable false information.  From the first paragraph, which says that I am facing one charge of attempting to pervert the course of justice - I am facing two charges which were laid together, perverting the course of justice and escaping from custody.  I didn't do either and the Police know that perfectly well.

The second paragraph contains reference to photocopies of previous assessments of me by Mental Health Service in the Wairarapa.  I have requested these and they have not been provided, I question the accuracy of these ‘reports’ because of previous experience with these ‘Services’, and current complaints about them.

The third paragraph contains reference to the other selected people that the psychiatrist spoke to about me, on the recommendation of Alison Mulholland, Court Liaison Officer.  He spoke to Constable Peter Cunningham of the Carterton Police.  The history of corruption and malicious actions of Constable Cunningham towards me is well documented, and it is completely inappropriate that he speak with Cunningham.  The name of the usual police prosecutor, Gregory John Peters is crossed out the Summons, or Information, filed in Court, and the name Peter Cletus Cunningham is handwritten in it's place, because the usual Masterton prosecutors know how corrupt these charges are.  Cunningham was touted in the newspaper recently as a Community Constable, not a prosecutor.

Cunningham was the officer in charge of the corrupt ‘investigation’ into the attack on me in my home on 11th February 2009 by Michael Murphy, who is his crucial witness in this case currently before the court, This is his first attempt at a prosecution as far as anyone knows - he is a junior Community Constable, not a prosecutor of serious charges!  The matter is directly linked to the attack on me in my own home by Murphy and his associates, and even the other corrupt staff at the Masterton prosecution section won't touch this one, because they've lost too many times already and had to apologise, after listening to Cunningham and his mates. 

There is indisputable evidence of Cunningham’s corruption toward me over a number of years, this will be referred to later.

The psychiatrist also spoke with a previous counsel, Ken Daniels.  There is no note of who referred him to Mr Daniels, but again, this was gravely inappropriate.  Mr Daniels withdrew at short notice for the third or fourth time after refusing to accept specific, reasonable, logical, instructions to send a particular letter we had agreed should be sent to police, a standard letter requesting information I am lawfully entitled to, request specific information from the police, such as the recording of the call to emergency services from Claire Cook and Kelly Wilson, witnesses to Murphy's attack on me last February, etc.

The email below was sent on 16th March 2010, there has been no response, the information is urgently required:

I also require an Application for Variation of Bail, as previously requested.  Please email this to me so I can copy it or fill it in and email it back urgently.

I asked/instructed Mr Sainsbury and Ms Scott to do this numerous times, and asked Mr Yeoman to assist me with it also.  I asked Mr Sainsbury and Ms Scott to act regarding the illegal imprisonment and the warrant issued on the 16th February and to obtain all information.

TO BE CONTINUED.

Please pass this URGENT message on immediately to Frank Minehan of Ainslie Hewton immediately.  Please ring the office of that firm and request an email address for Frank Minehan and forward this message to it.

Please also forward it to the Masterton Court and the Area Commander of the Wairarapa Police and the Police Complaints Authority, it is a formal complaint and an URGENT information request.

I have been illegally imprisoned twice recently and have lodged a complaint with the Law Society about Ainslie Hewton, which is relevant to the illegal imprisonment and matters currently before the Court.

On the most recent occasion I was arrested on a warrant which was illegally obtained by conspiracy between Court staff and police, particularly adulterous de facto couple Liz Harpleton and Gary Wilson, on 22nd February 2010, which was based on information known by police and Court staff to be false, and my bail address was changed because of actions of the police and the amicus curiae, and I was bailed to an address previously opposed by the police to the extent that I was imprisoned.

TAKE NOTICE THAT I ABSOLUTELY REFUSE TO LIVE AT HODDERS ROAD AND WILL CONTINUE TO LIVE AT NO FIXED ABODE REGARDLESS OF THE BAIL BOND ISSUED AFTER MY ILLEGAL IMPRISONMENT ON 22ND AND 23RD FEBRUARY, THE ACTIONS OF THE POLICE AND THE COURT ARE CORRUPT.  THIS IS A FORMAL COMPLAINT ABOUT  THE ACTIONS OF THE POLICE AND THE COURT REGARDING THE ILLEGAL WARRANT, THE ILLEGAL ARREST, THE ILLEGAL IMPRISONMENT, AND THE IMPOSITION OF THE BAIL ADDRESS IN HODDERS ROAD AFTER THE POLICE REFUSED TO AGREE TO IT BECAUSE OF CONCERNS OF VIOLENCE VERY RECENTLY.

1. I request immediate confirmation in the form of a statement from lawyer Frank Minehan and one from the manager of the Court to confirm that when I was brought before the Court on 23rd September 2009 (or at a recent hearing at which Mr Minehan represented me) I was bailed to the address: "NO FIXED ABODE"
2. I request that Ainslie Hewton and the manager of the Courtimmediately forward me a copy of the bail bond stating that I am living at "NO FIXED ABODE" and typed copies of any notes made by Frank Minehan regarding the hearings on 22nd and 23rd September (I have received some documents from Ainslie Hewton but cannot read many because of illegible handwriting and faint photocopying, there are also missing pages, and no information regarding the bail bond or the hearing at which the police opposed the Hodders Road address.
3. I request immediate confirmation in the form of a statement from Frank Minehan to confirm that when I was brought before the Court on 23rd September 2009 it was revealed that the police had deliberately lied to the Xxx family in telling them that there was every likelihood of a curfew being imposed when the Judge had clearly and firmly refused the application hours earlier and made it clear that there was NO possibility whatsoever of a curfew being imposed.  This lie by the Police led to my imprisonment.
4. I request immediate confirmation in the form of a statement from Frank Minehan, and one from the police prosecution section, to confirm that when I was brought before the Court on 23rd September 2009 the police successfully opposed me being bailed to an address in Hodders Road because of concerns about "previous violence at that address", which is why I was finally bailed to no fixed abode.
5. I request immediate confirmation in the form of a statement from the Police that the occupant of the address at Hodders Road went to the Carterton police station and complained about disharmony at his address resulting from the letter to me from the Board of the South End School.
6. I request from the police all information about this incident involving the occupant of the address going to the police station about me, including a statement he says was taken regarding the matter.

James Cowley and Maria Saunders Cowley, liars and facilitators of child abuse.

After removing Lily from Woodford House in a manipulative and unlawful manner CYFS colluded with the Cowley family and other parties in order to justify the unlawful kidnapping of a thirteen year old child.  Lily was enrolled at Queen Margaret's College in Wellington, but problems soon developed there before very long and James and Maria packed her off to Nelson Girls College in Te Wai Pounamu (otherwise known as The South Island).

CYFS records show that James and Maria Cowley sent Lily, now calling herself Aja again (CYFS files show she changed her name five times in 12 months) to boarding school in Nelson (they lived in Wellington) in 1999.

After being asked to leave Nelson Girls College boarding house after a short time, again due to "behavioural issues, substance abuse", etc, James and Maria arranged for Lily to board with paid "caregivers" Richard and Larraine.  It seems that CYFS thought Richard and Lorraine were approved caregivers working for the Open Home Foundation, which was later found to be not the case when a competent and fair case manager was finally appointed.   This case manager was Justine Forde, and she immediately recognised the situation for what it was and did her utmost to help Lily, and I.  Unfortunately, the Police and senior CYFS management were intent on covering up the appalling abuse that had been perpetrated on us.

The last paragraph of the case note below makes it perfectly clear that Larraine knew perfectly well that her "partner" Richard was a serial pedophile, and that she was perfectly prepared to enable him to sexually assault the children they were paid to "care for", on a regular basis.  It's quite sickening really.  In fact it's utterly obscene, which is why I am finally publishing the evidence of it.

Sending a 13 year old girl to live with serial pedophiles and then kicking her out of home nine days after the abuse occurred is outrageous and Maria Saunders Cowley, Joy Cowley and her latest husband Terry Coles (former lawyer turned Catholic priest, who Joy "turned to for emotional support" while her second husband, who was a fine man) and James Cowley should hang their heads in utter shame.  They appear to have no conscience.  At least Sergeant Napier admitted that he regretted his part in this outrageous miscarriage of justice and abuse of the processes of the Courts.

Police apparently interviewed Lily once about these allegations, but failed to ever "reinterview" her, and never took any action whatsoever about investigating Richard and Larraine let alone charging them - because according to their response to written questions they were "too busy providing security for Commonwealth Heads of Government Meetings" which were being held in NZ at the time.

More evidence the NZ Police wilfully ignored:

And here's the best bit - Maria Saunders Cowley (formerly married to Barry Saunders, a local musician, kicked my daughter out of their home NINE DAYS after she had been molested - because she has been "refusing to pull her weight around the house and there has been strain put on Maria's and her relationship."

The same woman who started all this because she suddenly wanted my daughter to be her bridesmaid at her wedding to the child's father, on a whim, after encouraging her father to ignore her all her life and commit fraud by refusing to ever pay one cent of child support he owed until well after he'd kidnapped her with his pack of lies about "I have custody.  Lily lives with me", etc, the couple who lied to Police, the woman who sent my daughter photos of her son, Jason Saunders, and letters about her "new big brother" - Jason Saunders used and abused Lily too - before he told her "you're not my sister anymore."  These people are monsters, and it's a sick joke that Joy Cowley is being facilitated to give speeches as a role model and supposedly upstanding member of the community - she is anything but!

James Cowley, Joy Cowley and Maria Cowley are liars - selfish liars - who ruined my daughter's life.  They were aided and abetted by a number of other people, many of whom were paid tax payer's money to protect vulnerable children, but actually did the exact opposite.

Changing the name of CYF to the Ministry for Vulnerable Children is as ridiculous and changing the name of the Police Complaints Authority to the Independent Police Conduct Authority - the real issues are escalating - covered up and ignored, while those responsible, from social workers like Deborah Houston, with no qualifications, through to the top levels of management, through to politicians, lawyers and judges, continue to waste tax payer's money and commit obscene miscarriages of justice like this one.

Nothing's changed except the abusers are growing ever bolder, secure in the knowledge that their offending will be covered up and they will be protected, indemnified, facilitated, promoted, rewarded.

This case note is outrageously damning - as is the rest of the EVIDENCE regarding these matters, such as Lily's school reports, which show a clear and indisputable pattern of a happy healthy and high achieving child whose grades plummeted and serious issues developed from the moment she was kidnapped to facilitate James and Maria's little whims, and then abused and dumped by James and Maria.  Social worker Justine Forde stood out among her colleagues at CYF (or CYPS as they were known at the time) in terms of her caring and professional manner, and I sincerely hope that she has continued in her career and wish her all the best for her efforts to do the right thing.  She diligently followed up and repeatedly tried to encourage police to interview Lily, police responded by saying they were too busy protecting the Commonwealth Heads of Government meeting.

Update on the Corruption and Violence in Carterton:

Wayne Friend, P addict, bully, best 

mates with fellow addict Rachel Taylor,

Kirsten and the property owner in the 

background holding hands.

Kirsten Grenfell and Rachel Taylor, thief.

Here's Kirsten Grenfell of Upper Hutt, who works for Barnardos, and Rachel Taylor and Wayne Friend, local methamphetamine addicts and thieves, who don't work at all.

On Monday morning I received a message from my friend, the owner of the property where I used to live until recently, when Kirsten Grenfell had me evicted, to say that a local methamphetamine addict had been caught red handed in my bedroom stealing my stuff after being let into the house by Wayne Friend, who has also been helping himself to my things.

Grenfell got the owner to evict me so she could continue to come and have it off with him when her husband was working nights, or away.  She made it quite clear on one such earlier overnight visit that she didn't like me and didn't want me around.   I returned home from getting the gas bottle filled one night to find (the outside light had been turned off, and) Grenfell was on the phone wanting to speak to me.  I told my friend that I didn't want to speak to her, I had recently emailed her asking her not to indulge in common gossip about me and untrue statements over the internet through Barnardos email system headed: "this is a Taita Community Initiative".  I didn't consider this unreasonable at all and neither does anyone who has viewed the evidence and the emails and text messages in question.

The message from my friend said that on Saturday night, Rachel Taylor had been caught red handed coming out of my bedroom with a bag of my things she was in the act of stealing, and after an argument with Wayne Friend, she had left with my things.

I have told my friend that my possessions have been going missing since Wayne Friend moved in.  He is a known methamphetamine addict, as are his mates Rachel Taylor, Kylie Donnelly, etc.  He's so desperate he invites these slappers around then leaves them to help themselves while he has a shower to wash off the filth.  I told my friend that if he evicted me and followed Kirsten Grenfell's advice and let Wayne Friend move in, his home would be over run with thieving P addicts, stealing everything that wasn't nailed down while he was at work.  And lo and behold- so it has!  Wayne Friend shouted at me "There's been so many people through here you'll never be able to prove it" referring to the fact that I saw him AND Taylor in my room on Saturday night.  

So when I went round to list what was missing this time, I was assaulted by Wayne Friend and his mate "Charlie" - except his name isn't really Charlie at all, he just "pretends" it is.  My friend wasn't there again, and these two druggies were ruling the roost again - great!  "Charlie" and his de facto partner Marie sell and trade prescription drugs, they are full time beneficiaries by choice and scoff at the very idea of getting a job!  Why work when you can just laze around all day and let other people support you is their motto.  (Marie was also caught red handed stealing from my friend, and Charlie broke the window there climbing in to threaten me a few weeks ago when I was there with permission.)  Of course, Kirsten Grenfell's got an even better idea - work for a charity!  

Dallas Powell

Karen Friend

Here's Dallas Powell, until recently the Deputy Principal of the South End School, and her best mate Karen Friend, Wayne's mother, with a cigarette in one hand, joint in the other, and plenty of alcohol, so you can see where Wayne gets it from.  Karen's best mates with psychotic violent lunatic Gary McPhee, and Michael Murphy, who attacked me on the 11th February 2009.  My Court documents are inside the house and Murphy now has access to them, just like Rachel Taylor and all the other alcoholics and drug addicts and lazy thieving bludgers Wayne Friend invites around.

Dallas refused to tell the truth about the letter sacking me from the school over a false and malicious allegation that I was a child abuser, and has taken a year's leave and gone to work at another local school apparently.  She know perfectly well the level of the corruption regarding that matter, and refuses to state the facts.  She wants me out of my friend's house too, because she feels uncomfortable indulging in her vices round there while I am there since the letter from the school sacking me over the false allegation, and her involvement in that matter.  The Principal of the School failed to turn up to Court recently, because he was proven to be a liar indisputably, in correspondence with the Privacy Commissioner published on this site.  This is who is teaching the kids of the Wairarapa.  I was informed recently that there has been an official complaint regarding the school Secretary calling a student a "lying little bitch", and the affairs of the School are in serious disarray with the Board holding crisis talks.  I am still waiting for a meeting with the Board to discuss the lies about me.

The most disgusting part of this story is that when I went to the Carterton Police station to report the thefts and assaults, the message about Rachel Taylor stealing my stuff, etc, and the several assaults by Wayne Friend, "Charlie" etc, Constable Mia Wilton told me that its all "civil matters".  She refused to take a statement from my friend, Tim Reynolds regarding the text message that Taylor had been caught red handed, and refused to write down anything whatsoever, parroting on that it was all civil matters.  I told her about the message from my friend confirming that she'd been caught red handed, and that Wayne Friend and Charlie were visually recording the assaults on their mobile phones, she made no attempt to investigate anything whatsoever or write anything whatsoever down.

This is the same lying Constable Mia Wilton who claims that the occupants of a certain address refused to accept property of mine when it was taken there for delivery by her recently as requested (a civil matter - she is not a courier service for the likes of P addict Kylie Donnelly and the other drug dealer who was asked to return my property to where they took it from!  I was assaulted and taken to Masterton and locked in a cell over a false complaint of bicycle theft, and given a letter saying my property would be auctioned on July 31st if I didn't pick it up from the Police station.  I only have a bike for transport, which is why I asked for it to be delivered to my friends address.  My friend has now written a letter confirming that Wilton is a LIAR, and that the occupants did NOT refuse to accept the property at all!  This property includes my computer - URGENTLY REQUIRED TO PREPARE FOR COURT, LIKE MY COURT DOCUMENTS AT 27 HODDERS ROAD which every p addict in town has access to but I do not all of a sudden, thanks to Kirsten Grenfell, Wayne Friend, Gary McPhee, Dallas Powell and the corrupt Wairarapa police.

Outrageous Fortune featured an episode where the matriarch of the family threatened to send a miscreant to stay with rellies in the Wairarapa, a threat greeted with utter horror by the recipient and fervent promises to change their ways.  It's no joke really, the Wairarapa is famous for all the wrong reasons.

This is just more example of how the Wairarapa police continue to pervert the course of justice on a regular basis, covering up for thieves, liars, methamphetamine addicts and informers like Rachel Taylor, "Charlie", Karen Friend's son Wayne, Michael Murphy, Aaron Brook, etc.

Just to top it all off, pathetic old bully Gary McPhee has published another false and libelous allegation on the Cartoontown website.  It says everything about Gary - a nasty, spiteful, personal attack, factually completely wrong, slanderous lies.  Pure muckraking.  Dragging my daughter into his gutter politics.  He's so afraid he might not get onto the Wellington Regional Council he's had to resort to this low gossipmongering and lies.  Don't vote for any of these corrupt candidates, or anyone who does not support a full inquiry into the Carterton Community Centre /Event Centre and the involvement of the group of people associated with the Council in the illegal takeover mismanagement and closure of the Community Centre, and a full inquiry into the corruption regarding the last local body elections in Carterton.  Don't vote for Ron Mark or Ruth Carter or any of the corrupt and incompetent candidates - they support the waste of money Event Centre that nobody wants, and are only concerned with lining their own pockets and those of their mates.  Here's more of Tim and Kirsten and Rachel Taylor the thief:  Gary McPhee's mate Rachel Taylor.  Kirsten Grenfell is a manipulative and cunning woman who has been having affairs behind her husband's back for years, taking her daughter to stay at places like this, frequented by P addicts and thieves.  McPhee's got a cheek talking about  daughter!  You deserve better friends Tim, take a good look at these P addicted thieves you call friends, get that P addict and his mates out - send him back to mummy - she doesn't want him though - she was round at Tim's not so long ago saying she didn't want a P addict living in her house.  She works at the local bikie hangout the 7 Day Club (McPhee thinks he's the king pin round there) - let Wayne Friend put all his junk round there - they have a huge empty warehouse by all accounts.  I painted those rooms and cleaned them from top to bottom, and the rest of the house, and now these P addicted scum are stealing my possessions on an almost daily basis.  And here's my Court paperwork thrown outside by these creeps.  The police are perverting the course of justice in Carterton!  Here they are all having a good time, Tim and the P addict thief and Kirsten Grenfell - she fits right in with this crowd but she won't introduce Tim to her friends (except to lie to her family that they're "just friends" after word got out that she was cheating on Dave Grenfell - again.)  Kirsten and Dave Grenfell and Tracy Feast and her ex partner play the same games, and people always get hurt.  Last time it was Kirsten, she came bleating to Tim that she'd got a smack in the gob from "Dave's ex" and nasty messages from the step daughter - I'm not surprised in the least!  It's just what she richly deserves!  If the police sorted these people out we could all get on with our lives and I could prepare for Court on the latest corrupt charges.

  

South End School ERO report 2010:

Here's the latest damning report on the South End School:

South End School

3 August 2010

To the Parents and Community of South End School:

This review evaluates the extent and effectiveness of actions the school has taken towards addressing issues specified in the previous review and/or any additional areas identified since that review.

The Education Review Office [ERO] evaluation of South End School follows.

South End School is a Year 1 to 8 primary school located in Carterton in the Wairarapa. Two Montessori classes successfully operate as part of the school.

ERO’s April 2008 education review identified many areas requiring attention. These included self review, the quality of professional leadership, curriculum management, consistency of assessment, teaching, planning and processes for reporting to parents. The supplementary review report of May 2009 identified progress in some areas but improvement was still required in: self review; professional leadership and school culture; curriculum and performance management; and provision for students with particular learning needs. This 2010 review evaluates progress made in addressing these concerns.

Teachers collaborate to share good practice. Individually they use effective teaching strategies and meaningful learning activities. Positive and affirming relationships are apparent in all classrooms. Students demonstrate good self‑management skills. They are well engaged in their learning.

Teachers have a planned approach to monitoring students’ progress and achievement, supported by the special needs coordinator (SENCO). Students at risk of not achieving at expectations for their age are identified through achievement data. Targeted education plans are developed to include appropriate interventions for these students.

Staff show an increasing confidence in teaching te reo Māori and integrating aspects of te ao Māori into classroom programmes. They are supported by a Board of Trustees’ member who has strong links with local iwi. Staff and management commitment to catering for the needs of Māori students is clearly evident.

The principal has attended to some aspects of managing achievement information and hazard identification. However, curriculum and professional leadership are still of concern. The principal continues to require considerable support to address issues related to curriculum review, the implementation of The New Zealand Curriculum, staff performance management and clear communication with staff on professional and management matters.

ERO recommends that the Secretary for Education consider intervention in order to address the issues identified in this report.

Future Action:
ERO intends to carry out another review within a year.

Review Coverage:
When ERO has reviewed a school we encourage boards to inform their community of any follow-up action they plan to do. You should talk to the board or principal if you have any questions about this evaluation, the full ERO report or their future intentions.

3 Findings
Context and Background

ERO’s April 2008 education review identified a variety of areas requiring attention. These included self review, the quality of professional leadership, curriculum management, variability in assessment, teaching, planning and processes for reporting to parents. The supplementary review report of May 2009 identified progress in some of these areas but improvement was still required in self review, professional leadership and culture, curriculum and performance management and provision for students with particular learning needs. This report evaluates progress made in addressing these concerns.

The principal developed an action plan to address areas requiring further improvement. An outside facilitator worked with the staff, principal and board to improve communication and trust between these groups. A plan for a mentor to support the principal in developing curriculum management and leadership skills was not implemented.

At the time of this review a new board had recently been elected and includes three experienced members from the previous board.
Areas of progress

    Collaborative culture
    Teachers work together collaboratively to share good practice. This extends to interchange of ideas between mainstream and Montessori teachers. Students from both areas of the school participate in a number of joint activities. Staff and trustees consider that their relationships with each other are positive.
    Managing achievement information
    The principal has developed a framework for the timing of assessments across the school with some guidelines for administering standardised tests. He has developed a schedule for reporting an appropriate range of student achievement information to the board in literacy and numeracy. Trustees receive information that identifies numbers of students who are achieving below expectations and strategies to address these gaps. The board states that it is better informed about school-wide achievement through improved presentation, analysis and commentary on information that the principal provides.

    Catering for special learning needs
    Students at risk of not achieving are identified from achievement data. Targeted education plans include appropriate interventions for identified students. Progress is closely monitored by the class teachers and SENCO. The board receives reports on the impact of these interventions.

    Clearly defined criteria identify those who are gifted and talented and extension and enrichment opportunities are made available through external providers.
    Māori achievement
    Māori students make appropriate progress over time in reading, writing and numeracy. While some are represented in the underachievement data, others achieve at and above expectations for their chronological age. The school maintains regular dialogue with Māori whānau, consulting and sharing outcomes of achievement targets. Staff show an increasing confidence in providing teaching of te reo Māori and integrating aspects of te ao Māori into classroom programmes, supported by a trustee who has strong links with local iwi. Staff and management commitment to catering for the needs of Māori students is clearly evident.

Areas for further improvement

The principal has addressed some issues related to management systems, including hazard identification. The lack of school-wide curriculum and professional leadership remains a concern. The principal continues to require considerable support to provide the leadership to address the following issues:

    Curriculum review
    While there is a schedule for assessment and reporting achievement to the board, curriculum review and development are not planned. Teachers individually use achievement data to plan programmes but no collation is done to inform school curriculum review.

    The school has made limited progress in reviewing its curriculum to ensure it meets the requirements of The New Zealand Curriculum (NZC), and therefore the National Administration Guidelines (1). In 2008 the board established its values as part of a charter revision. In 2010 staff developed essence statements for curriculum areas. Some teachers independently implement aspects of NZC in their classrooms. As yet there are no curriculum guidelines that express expectations for teaching NZC.
    Performance management
    Variability in implementation of the performance management system continues. Provisionally registered teachers (PRTs) are provided with a consistent and comprehensive programme of support and guidance. The principal’s appraisal cycle has begun with assistance from an external education professional. However, the appraisal process was only partially completed for most teachers in 2009 and, apart from the provision of job descriptions and the PRT programme, the process for 2010 has yet to start.
    Communication
    The principal has established a senior management team but there is no evidence that this has improved communication with the staff as whole. Clear expectations for teachers and direction for the school as a learning community have not been communicated to staff.

4 Action Required

The board of trustees must ensure that:

4.1 performance appraisal for all teaching staff is completed each year.
[Section 77C State Sector Act 1988]

5 Recommendations to Other Agencies
ERO recommends that:

5.1 the Secretary for Education consider intervention under Part 7A of the Education Act 1989 in order to address the issues identified in this report.


6 Future Action

ERO intends to carry out another review within a year.

Update on the corrupt charges against me, and how your taxes are being wasted:

Today was my birthday, and I had to go all the way to Wellington District Court to answer the latest corrupt charges laid against me by the useless and corrupt Wairarapa police.  Perverting the Course of Justice and Escaping Custody.  What a joke!  I didn't pervert the course of justice, it is indisputably obvious that the matter is an abuse of process and a complete and utter waste of taxpayers money, the Crown case is an orchestrated litany of lies that anyone can see through, Michael Murphy and Aaron Brook are two of the least credible witnesses it would be possible to find, and it is indisputably obvious that the Wairarapa police have been perverting the course of justice for at least eight years, and a lot longer by all accounts:

Specifically, local police have repeatedly refused to investigate the following (inter alia):

• the illegal takeover, mismanagement and closure of the Carterton Community Centre, after the Secretary and Treasurer was punched in the face and the locks on the building were changed to cover up the fraud going on there - these allegation are supported by letters from at least five lawyers and are published on this site (links up soon), 
• Police refuse to charge Georgina Beyer with with conspiring to defeat justice by writing an official letter denying that there was fraud at the Carterton Community Centre, involving people associated with the District Council - that's the reason Beyer resigned from parliament.
• Police refuse to charge Gary McPhee and his mate for the drunken, violent home invasion and assault which he boasted about in the paper, establishing a clear and indisputable prima facie case 
• Police refuse to charge Tracy Lee with the theft of $500 from a local woman and making a false statement to police regarding a phone call she told police that she received from my address, 
• Police refuse to charge Michael Francis Murphy with the attack on me in my home on the 11th February 2010.

The last police perversion of justice listed above is one of the most blatant of all and involves none other than Michael Murphy and his mate, drunken lout of an illegally elected Mayor, Gary McPhee, and corrupt local Constable Peter Cletoris Cunningham.  Murphy incited other people to join him in driving to my home to commit a violent attack that was witnessed by at least three other people who all called 111 immediately and described the attack in graphic terms as it was taking place.  One of the witnesses eventually intervened with a dog, which stopped the attack and caused the offenders to leave.

Police accuse me of making the whole thing up, and say that even if it were true, it was ok for them to come and violently attack me - because I allegedly took a five year old child to the supermarket without the permission of its mother!  First they tried to say I left the child alone in the supermarket and the child was distressed, until I requested the CCTV footage, which has never been provided of course, because it showed that the child was not neglected or distressed.  The story changed then, to the one about taking the child without permission.  Anyone knows that if a mother has concerns about her child she should go to the police, not go and smash down the person's door and assault them in a blind rage.  Concerns of serious abuse are one thing, but taking a child to the supermarket without permission is quite another and certainly does not warrant a violent attack!

Anyway, I went all the way to Wellington District Court to defend myself on the charges, after the corrupt  lawyers and amicus curiae repeatedly refuse to assist me to fill in any applications for Disclosure, for example, which should have been provided months ago under the Privacy Act and the Official Information Act and only worry about how much money they can suck up for dragging the proceedings out as long as possible.  True to form, the case did not go ahead today, it was a waste of everyone's time - how much did Bryan Yeoman get paid for that?!  What an utter creep he is!  I was imprisoned for two days illegally because of him!

On arrival, I was handed this:  (Click on the images to enlarge them)





The Judge said there wouldn't be time to hear the matter, which was odd, because there we were, at the appointed time, and the whole floor of the Court building - 3 Courtrooms, offices, etc, was completely deserted, so it didn't look like they were very busy with any other cases at all.

Constable Laura Rhymer didn't turn up for the hearing of the Crown application because she knew perfectly well that she did NOT arrest me because I had not committed any crime.  Constable Rhymer didn't turn up for the hearing on the 8th December, because she applied for annual leave just two days before the hearing.  Corrupt Constable Cunningham and his corrupt fellow officers now expect Constable Laura Rhymer to lie, to put her whole career on the line by going along with his orchestrated litany of lies.  She can't do it.  What they want her to say is not true.  I don't think she will convince anyone if she tries to lie about it, either.  Read the story below by Ross Meurant (I know, I can't believe I said that either!) to see that corruption is common in the New Zealand police.  It's getting a lot worse fast, too.  The so called inquiry into the PCA by Margaret Bazely was a joke, and a waste of time and money, because it only focussed on sexual misconduct, when clearly the problem was far deeper, as evidenced by the imprisonment of John Dewar - the huge cover up was the real issue, not the sexual misconduct.

Here's the thing the amicus curiae tried to make me sign, agreeing that Constable Rhymer not give evidence in person - and the Court should just take her word for it that she arrested me!  What rubbish!  I hadn't done anything and she knew it!

This is how your taxes are being spent, while a Judge recently highlighted the hundreds of uninvestigated child abuse cases, and general incompetence and dysfunction of the Wairarapa police. More evidence of that is all over this site, and plenty of others too (links up soon).

I asked (among other things,) for a Court Order for the audiotape of the calls to 111 regarding Murphy's attack , which Murphy denied committing in his Depositions Evidence.  The Judge refused my request.  What outrageous corruption!  He told me to make an application under the Disclosure Act or something for it, and then told me I should have instructed lawyer Noel Sainsbury to do it.  I told him I HAD instructed him to do it, and he had refused to accept any of my instructions at all, including this one.  I also told the Judge that I had requested it, and other evidence, which should have been provided months ago, under the Privacy Act and the Official Information Act.

The Judge wasn't interested, it was wink wink, nudge nudge with the corrupt amicus curiae, prosecutor, lawyers, and all the other slimy weasels that suck up our money from the gravy train, let's go home and write up our bills, ha ha, sickening really.  It cost me $60 to get to Court with a support person - I have no lawyer. I must say that the Court security staff are very pleasant and helpful though.  So anyway, it's been remanded till 30 September 2010 with absolutely RIDICULOUS - not to mention ILLEGAL - bail conditions - oh, that was something else I asked to speak to the Judge about, another request that was denied!   More about the bail address soon, it's bedtime now.

Thank you to all the people who sent me happy birthday wishes and good wishes and offers of assistance for Court today, your kindness is appreciated so much, and I did have a lovely day cycling around my favorite city - I just love Wellington!  I also made some nice new friends, including two lovely ladies called Karen and Viv who are a real credit to the Salvation Army, brightening up the day of everyone in the store with their friendly, happy, caring manner.
