This
true story, is based on real events supported by hard and verified documentary evidence.
The chronology reveals a systematic institutionalised discrimination and
unlawful expenditure from the public purse, to continue nursing a lie,
and prevent officers and councillor corruption from being revealed.
Including in the cover up conspiracy: Sussex police, East
Sussex County (ESCC), and Wealden District councils, working with
the Crown, and High Courts, and the infamous; Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC).
You
did read that correctly. The whole spectrum of the British Judicial
system. Involved in a conspiracy to pervert the course of justice!

We don’t investigate planning crime, Mr von Woolfe.
VICTOR
Why not?

Policy decision.
Above our pay grade.
Victor stares at him — unblinking.

He’s a student.

We have every right.
You’re breaching your license.
Victor’s voice drops — cold, precise.
VICTOR
Judge Cedric
Joseph’s sentencing remarks explicitly recognised my decades of work with young males.
My restrictions apply to females only.
You know that.

>>>> The Solicitation >>>>
|
Act I: The Trap (Chapters 1–7) |
- |
Focuses on the campaign, the sudden arrest, the systematic dismantling of V’s defense by the state, and the whirlwind trial. |
|
Chapter
1: The
Target. |
- |
Introduce V as an uncompromising campaigner fighting local planning fraud and corruption. Establish the tension with East Sussex County Council
(ESCC). The chapter ends with a dawn raid. V has won several cases against
ESCC's chums at Wealden District Council. And set a trap for WC's officers when they raided a client of V. |
|
Chapter
2: Under
Caution. |
- |
The interview at the police station. The police cross the line, seizing V’s computers under the guise of an investigation, intentionally capturing privileged legal correspondence between V and his solicitors. |
|
Chapter
3: The Inept
Shield. |
- |
V realizes his legal-aid defense team is entirely out of their depth. They refuse to hire an independent medical expert, claiming "legal aid won't cover it," completely ignoring the fatal flaws in the prosecution's medical claims. |
|
Chapter
4: Loft Diaries & The Friday Trap |
- |
The Setup: The mother (the psychiatric nurse) is in the witness box on a hot Friday afternoon. She thinks she has played a perfect performance, claiming her daughter
"Briony" only locked her bedroom door when V visited.
The Fracture: The defense presents a forgotten SMS text message from her own phone to V: "Come around,
B locked her door to stop J getting in." The text completely dismantles her narrative, proving the door was locked to keep her younger brother out, not V.
B did not know V was coming around that evening.
The Pivot: Under immense pressure, the mother breaks and admits she has been hiding her personal diaries in her loft—diaries that track the family's exact daily movements. |
|
Chapter
5: The Monochrome Sabotage (The Monday Rush) |
- |
The State's Intervention: Over the weekend, the police seize the diaries but execute a highly sophisticated piece of bureaucratic sabotage. They refuse to let the defense see the original physical books. Instead, they hand over cheap, monochrome photocopies late Friday.
The Hidden Code: Because the copies are in black-and-white, the defense cannot see that the mother had color-coded the entries. The colors distinguish between real events, hypothetical scenarios, and completely different timelines.
The Defense Collapse: Exhausted and underfunded on a Monday morning, V's inept barrister refuses to demand a formal adjournment for a forensic handwriting or color-spectrum analysis. They rush forward blind, completely missing the fact that the hidden entries mathematically prove there was zero opportunity for the alleged offenses to have occurred. The trial concludes before the trap is even fully understood by V.
The Medical Massaging. The courtroom centerpiece. The prosecution doctor testifies about "suspicious marks," deliberately withholding the fact that a landmark US report proves these marks are naturally occurring. To keep the jury from realizing the complainant is an intact virgin, the doctor deliberately skips the standard supine frog-leg examination. |
|
Chapter
6: "Make of it What You
Will." |
- |
The Trial Judge delivers a highly biased summing-up, instructing the jury to essentially disregard the gaps in the medical evidence. The jury is led blindly into a narrative crafted by social services. |
|
Chapter
7: The
Collapse. |
- |
The verdict is delivered. V is sentenced to 7 years. The shock is physical; V nearly collapses in the dock as the prison van doors slam shut, marking the end of his life as a free man. |
|
Act II: The Hell of Innocence (Chapters 8–14) |
- |
Focuses on the harrowing psychological and bureaucratic warfare inside the prison estate, the battle for an appeal, and the illusion of international remedy. |
|
Chapter
8: The Remand
Maze. |
- |
V enters the prison system. Maintaining innocence makes him a target for the prison regime. He undergoes the grueling transition to a high-consequence environment. |
|
Chapter
9: The Smudged
Box. |
- |
V tries to launch an appeal from his cell.
Sir
Christopher Holland, a single judge rejects the application, intentionally smudging the "loss of time" box on the form as a psychological deterrent to keep V from pushing further. The Court of Appeal blocks access to the trial transcripts. |
|
Chapter
10: The
2nd Justice Laptop. |
- |
V manages to secure a designated "justice laptop"
for the second time, to work on his
case, in HMP Maidstone. The prison authorities immediately flag him as a threat and begin a campaign of tactical disruption. |
|
Chapter
11: The Rule 39
Raids. |
- |
Cell searches become regular occurrences. Despite Rule 39 protecting legal privilege, V’s legal papers are systematically confiscated and returned in mixed garbage bags, forcing him to waste weeks resorting documents while key evidence silently vanishes. |
|
Chapter
12: 23-Hour
Lockdown. |
- |
As an appellant, V exercises his right to refuse forced prison labor. The system retaliates by placing him on a punitive 23-hour cellular lockdown to break his spirit. |
|
Chapter
13: The Ghost
Train. |
- |
To prevent V from building a routine or legal momentum, the prison service begins "bouncing" him across the country, transferring him from prison to prison on short notice in the middle of the night.
Ending back in HMP Bure (Cat C) in Norfolk. Article 3 mental
torture. |
|
Chapter
14: The
Catch-22. |
- |
V is paroled after serving over three years. He applies to the European Court of Human Rights, armed with a fresh independent medical report. Europe rejects the claim on a technicality: you must exhaust domestic remedies first—ignoring the fact that the UK has locked the door to those remedies. |
|
Act III: The Shadow of the Past (Chapters 15–21) |
- |
Focuses on life on the register, the CCRC's refusal, and the shocking discovery 12 years later that the trap is still active. |
|
Chapter
15: The Invisible
Chain. |
- |
V is out but not free. He is dogged by regular police visits and the humiliating, annual requirement to sign the sex offenders register, living as a pariah in the community he tried to protect.
The police hound V with yet more malicious allegations, and abuses
of process. |
|
Chapter
16: The Glass Ceiling of
Justice. |
- |
"Taking a View." V presents the unassailable medical evidence to the Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC). In a devastating meeting, the CCRC "takes a view"—selectively dismissing V's medical errors while approving identical errors for non-political defendants.
The Setting: A cold, austere courtroom in the Royal Courts of Justice. V is watching from the gallery, hoping that Judicial Review will force the CCRC's hand regarding the unassailable medical evidence.
The Conflict: V's legal team demonstrates that the CCRC has referred identical medical errors for other, less politically sensitive defendants. They explicitly argue that filtering V's case out constitutes institutional discrimination.
The Ruling: The three High Court judges deliver their judgment with clinical detachment. Instead of rebuking the CCRC for its double standard, they shield it, uttering the fatal words: "In our opinion, the CCRC are entitled to take a view."
The Impact: The line lands like a physical blow. For V, the realization sets in: the system has explicitly granted itself permission to treat people differently to protect its own reputation. The "view" they are taking is a political one—hiding the cracks of a corrupted local process rather than allowing a miscarriage of justice to blow the whistle on planning fraud. |
|
Chapter
17: The Cold Case
Defrosted. |
- |
Twelve years pass. V is surviving on the margins. Suddenly, the atmospheric pressure changes. Social services and local police begin sniffing around his life again. |
|
Chapter
18: The
Solicitation. |
- |
A dramatic turning point. A local family member or contact approaches V, terrified. They reveal that ESCC social services pulled them into an interview, pointedly and aggressively trying to pressure a young person into making a fresh, fabricated allegation against V. |
|
Chapter
19: Disclosure
Breakthrough. |
- |
Armed with this new threat, V launches a series of aggressive data requests and uncovers the original, buried files from 12 years ago, proving his own legal team and social services coordinated his original framing. |
|
Chapter
20: CCRC
Application. |
- |
V
re-applies to the CCRC, knowing the difficulties ahead, but with
one eye on ECtHR, Article 13 convention rights abuse. |
|
Chapter 21: The Horizon Blueprint. |
- |
V stops acting like a defendant and starts acting like a producer. He compiles the evidence, links the historical fraud to the contemporary harassment, and prepares to hand the entire package over to an investigative TV network—turning the "Witch Hunt" into a national reckoning. |
Proposed
6-10 part
television series, as a networked/streamed docu-drama. Based on a
true story, verified real life events.

THE
COLONIAL BULLDOG - Politicians
rarely tell the truth. That is one reason the UK's National Debt is so
high. A lack of forward planning and reserves, and the inability to read
world conditions, has led to the cost of living and climate crises. In
this story, our hero is a bull mastiff type of character. A hardy breed,
that does not shy from a fight, crossed with wolverine cunning, as the
tactics of his opponent is catalogued and analyzed. Their zeal for
misdirection, trips them up, when inconvenient facts finally rise to the
surface. Finally, The Bulldog began to turn the tables on corrupt
planning officials, as he took them on and won appeals for those unable
to afford expensive lawyers. Actions speak louder
than words. The Colonial became a high profile advocate. The Advocate
became a target that must be suffocated, no matter how. The stakes were
high.
