Simon had also developed an anxiety about security guards and was now hyper-vigilant of any security guard who was similar in appearance to the man who had assaulted him. During that first half of 2020, we all had to get use to ‘social distancing’ and lockdowns designed to keep people out of each other’s houses and confined to their own for significant swathes of time – in the middle of all of that, however, my clients the Bennet family suffered the trauma not of isolation in their home, but an invasion of it – by a gang of men whom at first they had no way of knowing were Officers of Cheshire Constabulary. Jervon was to remain detained in the prison for almost three weeks, before finally being released when the Crown Prosecution Service, who were now involved, discontinued all of the charges against him stating that there was insufficient evidence to provide a realistic prospect of conviction. The answer I imagine is probably no and if the answer is yes then I’m certain that the perpetrators would have been arrested and charged with a crime.

The intentions behind the “Clare’s Law” system are certainly admirable – but those who have the “right to ask” should also have the right to expect that the answers they receive are completely accurate, whilst those whose personal data is in the hands of the Police, must have the right to know that it is not being corrupted by egregious mistakes.

Despite requesting to speak to a solicitor, no such access was provided, and my client was kept in custody throughout the day and overnight, worrying about his family from whom he had been so abruptly and forcibly removed.

I have likewise previously highlighted the unedifying habit of the Metropolitan Police which is seemingly to encourage its officers to exercise a non-existent power of “detention” short of arrest, in the cynical knowledge that most people will assume that they need to ‘stay put’ simply because a Police Officer is telling them to do so. When asked, Mr Clasp provided the text from PC Roose to the Counter Corruption Unit, but claimed that he had not told PC Roose about Adam. Their sense of safety and security in their own home had been grossly violated and Emily’s own trauma was multiplied by her awareness of her children’s upset and her desperate wish to protect them. On further questioning, however, Peter’s neighbour stated that it ‘could have been’ simply my client’s hand in his pocket, rather than a knife.

A very similar experience also befell my client Zac Sharif-Ali, a black man of Somalian heritage, at the hands of Metropolitan Police in 2020, as I will address in this week’s blog post.
