My Pre-trial Hearing, District Judge John Christopher Temperley. Leicester Magistrates Court
Today I visited Leicester Magistrates Court to watch my pre-trial hearing.
It was also an opportunity for me to judge the Judge who will conducting the trial in September.
What I have read about him and seen gives me confidence he may give me a fair hearing.
The CPS still had a few things missing and did not know who will be prosecuting at the trial.
The CPS has withdrawn some police officers statements, this includes a statement which to me shows
former Rutland LPU Commander Inspector Kan Mistry's political involvement in this case an he was not
impartial I will wait until after the trial before I publish his statements.
Two other officers have provided useful statements, the prosecution have also removed them from the case.
Rather usefully they were served on the defence, so they can still be used at the trial. The Judge
agreed we can issue summons to call those officers to court for questioning.
Other officers statements have also been removed by the prosecution, they are irrelevant.
One was the statement from PC Robbie.
I found her to be a little difficult and a keen supporter of Former Mayor Paul Beech and Cllr Joyce Lucas.
She has twice arrested me after they both made rather stupid malicious complaints against me this year and last year. Each time the CPS chucked out their cases. PC Robbie also attempted to seek a prosecution for criminal damage after I posted about 11 posters on empty shop windows using water based glue. I also pasted one on the council notice board and surprisingly she could not even get them to provide a statement.
I made a formal complaint about PC Robbie, this was surprisingly investigated and resolved by Leicestershire Police.
It looks like the force is very slowly improving.
I am told Chief Constable Simon Cole is off sick and he may have had a mental break down, I do hope this was not caused by my complaints. According to Detective Simon Ely my six formal complaints about Rutland Police since 2010 are excessive. Whatever Mr Cole's illness is I wish him a speedy recovery.
The good news is the Judge said he could not take away my right to vote or miss out attending the
election count at Rutland County Council on the 15th August 2013.
We suggested a time I would vote, that will be at 9.45pm. I can remain on the premises for the count and depart 15 minutes after the declaration.
He added he was sure Mr Brookes would not communicate with anyone he should not.
I have informed Rutland County Council about this and hope they will make the deputy returning officer
available to discuss any possible election issues, show me any spoilt papers and notify me of the result.
