VICTIMS OF CHILD ABUSE MUZZLED BY THE STATE THAT HARBOURED THEIR ABUSER AND JAILED THEIR MOTHER, SARAH SANDS

Reece, Bradley and Alfie are finally free, as adults,  to expose the system that exposed them to a paedophile, then silenced them, tore their mother from them and cast her into jail. The vile collusion of state, police and judiciary to violate this innocent family is shocking. 

Such examples of the perversely applied practices and failings of the justice system, undermine its utility and make it disturbingly similar at times, to the criminality it purports to address. It failed to prevent Michael Pleasted abusing these children. Although it had already identified him as a paedophile and convicted him of abusing 24 children, it failed to remain vigilant on his release, allowing him to change his name and abuse again. 

The justice system then used the ‘right of victims to lifetime anonymity’  - not to help the child victims, but rather further abuse them, by snatching Sarah Sands, their mother, from them, casting her into prison, and silencing them from being able to protest. The Court of ‘Appeal’ even increased her sentence. I suggest, that if these details had been made public,  there would have been an outcry and demonstrations at the imprisoning of the mother, and the perfidy of the judicial system attempting to scapegoat her for its failings. 

It is chillingly sinister that the children's voices were muzzled, on the pretext that the state was 'protecting them' when in fact it was, by so doing, protecting itself and further abusing them, by depriving them of their mother.

While society cannot condone a mother taking the law into her own hands, neither should it choose to jail her for four years, particularly when it is responsible for not having protected her children. 

There are too many instances when the intention behind a law or legal practice is overridden by its perverse application, so that it results in an injustice. 


The law must ensure that those who abuse children are stopped from ever being able to do so again. Those, like judges, barristers and solicitors, who misapply and are pedantic about legal practices, court directives and the law, in such a manner, that abusers remain free to abuse, while punishment falls on those who seek to protect the victims,  must be held accountable.

ARCHBISHOP JONATHAN BLAKE - MY LIFE - PART ONE

ARCHBISHOP JONATHAN BLAKE - MY LIFE - PART TWO


I AM PROUD OF MY WRITING, FOR JESUS’S SAKE, THAT HAS HAD ME FOUND INNOCENT IN HEAVEN, BUT TWICE A CRIMINAL ON THE EARTH. THE FIRST IN 1990 WHEN I WROTE A BIBLICAL TEXT ON THE HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT IN PEACEFUL PROTEST ABOUT THE BOMBING OF YOUNG IRAQI RECRUITS DURING THE FIRST GULF WAR. THE SECOND, IN 2016 WHEN I WROTE ON MY BLOG, TO ALERT THE PUBLIC ABOUT A PAEDOPHILE, AND WAS SUCCESSFUL IN FORCING THE AUTHORITIES TO STOP HIM HAVING ACCESS TO CHILDREN. THERE WAS ALMOST A THIRD! IN 1997, WHEN I WAS ARRESTED FOR NAILING MY PROPOSALS FOR REFORM OF THE CHURCH OF ENGLAND ON THE DOOR OF CANTERBURY CATHEDRAL. WORDS ARE POWERFUL MESSAGES THAT CHALLENGE  CORRUPTION, CONFRONT THE WICKED AND CREATE A BETTER WORLD. JESUS IS THE WORD OF GOD AND HIS FOLLOWERS ARE CALLED  TO COMMUNICATE HIS WORDS,  IRRESPECTIVE OF THE COST.
"You brave, courageous and wonderful man. To stand up for the truth
 in the face of suppression and oppression is truly an act of a pure heart."
