Dear Ms Hramiak

Thank you for your reply.

If the Magistrates Court imposed the criminal anti-social behaviour order and not the Crown Prosecution Service, who do I take this matter up with regarding that? Gosh, I hope it isn’t the Council. Please let me know.

I am going to Keir Starmer about all this, who seems a decent chap

I am glad lawyers and caseworkers are informed they must not discuss cases openly in court in the presence of members of the public. Maybe they need reminders from time to time.

Kind regards

Mrs Oliver



Cheryl Hramiak thinks this was all fine

Dear C. Hramiak

I am concerned that Mr. Parnell was sent to Forrest Bank when his health was acknowledged to be bad. A judge subsequently decided he shouldn’t be there. I am concerned that CCTV of the original incident was not allowed to be shown at his original hearing, I am concerned at the apparently cosy relationship between Stockport Council and the Magistrates’ Court, with as you will know several councillors being magistrates and the partnership arrangement.

As you may know, Mr. Parnell is now tagged for two years, I believe, and can’t leave his home between 8am and 8pm. He has had the police called to him over 90 times, 12 arrests, one previous court case dropped on the day of the hearing, a CRASBO for an alleged sneeze (pre-swine flu) with intent to inflict a council employee with a cold. He got a ban on going within a mile of the town hall. I was at the town hall one Wednesday evening and arrived just after yet another arrest. The police car still had its blue lights flashing, so they were called as an emergency. His crime that time was to have used the town hall public lavatory. His crime this time, which again got him sent to Forrest Bank, was to attend the police station to make a complaint about the Leader of Stockport Council having sent an apparently gloating email to me about his imprisonment and enclosing confidential court documents. Was he not allowed to go to the police station to do that? His further crime that day was to sit on a bench to take a stone out of his shoe and to be spotted by a town hall employee who again called the police.

How much did the 90 times the police were called cost? How much did the 12 arrests cost? How much did the abandoned court case cost? How much have the subsequent magistrate court costs cost me? How much has his time in prison cost me as a taxpayer? How much will his appeal cost? All for an alleged sneeze, which was not on the CCTV footage of the incident!!! Are you all completely insane?

I shall cc this to the Editor of the Guardian who has taken an interest in miscarriages of justice and this most certainly is one. I shall also cc it to Liberty and the local press.

In addition, when I was in court at Mr. Parnell’s hearing lawyers and court officials were openly discussing cases during the recesses – apparently laughing and joking about and naming defendents. I work in the NHS and patient confidentiality prohibits patients being openly discussed in this way. Some relatives of the defendents were in the public gallery and could hear what was being said about their family members. It is really, really bad form, insensitve and probably illegal.

I look forward to hearing from you with regards to the further points I have made, and I shall pass your reply on to interested parties and the press.

Yours

Again, Cheryl Hramiak made fully aware of the illegalities

Dear C Hramiak

On reflection, this is what I think you should do:-

Examine the CCTV evidence of the non-sneeze incident and the apparently contradictory evidence from the security guards. If you are 100% certain you personally could defend that at public inquiry into the deaths of Mr. Parnell or his family, then that is fine. If not, then the further assault charges must be dropped.

If you are 100% sure that the Criminal ASBO is a legally binding and correctly drafted document, then that is fine. If not, then you cannot subject Mr. Parnell to possibly two years house arrest on the strength of it. If it is not a legally acceptable document, then he shouldn’t have spent time in Forrest Bank Prison for the ‘crime’ of using Stockport Town Hall lavatory. If it is not a legally acceptable document, then he shouldn’t have been sent back to Forrest Bank Prison a very sick man for the crime of reporting a crime to Stockport Police Station and sitting on a bench to take a stone out of his shoe. You do see my point, don’t you?

With the 90 times the police were called, 13 arrests, the court case dropped on the day of the hearing, the criminal ASBO for the alleged pre-swine flu sneeze, all the time spent in jail, were Mr. Parnell or his daughters to kill themselves, it would not be a case of yobs from a council estate harassing a family till they killed themselves, but from Stockport Council and the Crown Prosecution Service. Have you any idea what someone like Max Clifford could do with a story like that?

I look forward to your comments, or to hearing from Mr. Parnell that the further assault charge has been dropped and the house arrest order rescinded.

Yours

Mrs S J Oliver



Request sent to Cheryl Hramiak

Dear C Hramiak

I should like to make a FOI request for all CPS documents regarding the previous court case against Mr. Parnell, which was abandoned in January (maybe 2008) on the day of the hearing. Should you need Mr. Parnell’s permission to disclose these documents to me, I shall, of course, obtain it. I look forward to hearing from you.

We need to work out whether there has been harassment of Mr. Parnell on behalf of the CPS as well as the Council.

Yours sincerely

Mrs S J Oliver



Why did Cheryl Hramiak sit on her hands when all this was going on?

Town Hall Protester Posted on Fri, December 27, 2013 18:11

As I foretold, it has become a tragic case, but who cares?

Email sent – 28 September 2009 19:14

Dear C HRAMIAK

I note the breaking news of the Leicestershire police admiting their failings in the death of Fiona Pilkington. We may well be dealing with the suicide of Mike Parnell, his wife or his daughters as a result of what he has been put through – 91 times the police called, 13 arrests, one court case dropped on the day of the hearing, the sending of a sick man to a nasty jail, the house arrest till who knows when. What effect would that have on his already troubled daughters?

He only wanted counselling help for his adopted daughters. We have had the suicide of the lady from Romiley who jumped off the Humber Bridge with her 9 year old autistic son and the suicide of the young girl who jumped recently from a tower block – all seriously failed by Stockport Council.

I presume the CPS viewed the original CCTV footage of the non-sneeze incident before deciding to proceed.

I sincerely hope this incident doesn’t become another such tragic case, but if it does I shall be pressing for a public inquiry into what has gone one.

Yours

Mrs S J Oliver



Did Cheryl Hramiak check the legality of the documents back in 2009?

Dear C HRAMIAK, Branch Crown Prosecutor

Thank you for your further comments.

I would like to say that if you look at Mr. Parnell’s actual Criminal ASBO, it doesn’t appear to be a legally binding document. Perhaps you would check into that for me. There is potential for huge embarrassment there.

I realise the Court doesn’t decide where a prisoner serves his term, doesn’t pay for police costs etc. I am concerned at what has happened overall in this case and about the overall and future costs.

From talking to the relatives of various defendents, this discussing of their personal details quite openly would seem to be a common problem. Maybe there should be a blanket reminder to all staff of their obligations under the Data Protection Act.

I look forward to hearing from you regarding the legal standing of the CRASBO document.

Yours

Mrs S J Oliver



Mr Parnell begged for help on 23rd February 2009

Town Hall Protester Posted on Fri, December 27, 2013 17:33

Mr Parnell attended the Adults and Communities Scrutiny Committee on 23rd February to beg for help for his lovely, troubled daughters adopted from Stockport Council. It was his legal right to have such help but they just kept arresting and imprisoning him instead.



Mr Parnell begged for help on 18th February 2009

Mr Parnell attended the Children and Young People’s Scrutiny Committee on 18th February 2009 to beg for counselling help for his lovely, troubled daughters adopted from Stockport Council. Nobody listened, nobody cared.
