Apparently it's illegal to refuse a prisoner an interview with a researcher, author, etc. according to a Supreme Court ruling. If refused, prisoners should complain and must be given any paperwork related to the rejection within 3 days. How interesting.
Serco have refused permission for a journalist to visit Stephen in prison to interview him about False Memory Syndrome, which was a key area of his defence, "for security reasons". Permission will not be granted while he remains at HMP Ashfield.

How being acquitted of a false sexual allegation by a jury is being rendered almost meaningless:
▪️Charge is on your police record for life
▪️Revealed in enhanced DBS check
▪️You must declare arrest etc when travelling to USA & some other countries
▪️News reports remain online

Mark Pendergast, a very liberal writer of 3 books related to repressed memory, has weighed in on the Ford allegations and concluded that her story is very consistent with a false memory which was largely created in therapy 30 years after the alleged event: bigtrial.net/2018/10/recover…

It’s incredibly hypocritical to go on and on about all the work that’s been done to prevent “victims” (should be accusers) sexual history from being used against them while ramping up sexual history being used against “perpetrator” (should be accused) while removing all rights

Much has been said & written about the rehabilitation of criminals, but I can’t ever recall a serious discussion about the rehabilitation of people who have been falsely accused. Many have lost everything: reputation, career, home, savings, pensions, friends & even families.

Prosecuting someone who perverts the course of justice is no different from prosecuting any other crime. We don’t refuse to prosecute burglars or fraudsters because ‘it’s vindictive’.
Stephen's only pleasure in prison is his work in the gardens. He's able to enjoy some quiet solitude in caring for the gardens he has designed and helped to create. A new post - Horticultural Teaching Assistant - has been created for him.

‘He [Mark Watts] gambled his reputation on him and lost. It must be very painful, though less painful than being accused of rape and murder via the pages of Exaro.’

If you can’t ever know they are innocent, you can’t ever know they are guilty without absolute, clear, hard evidence. It’s amazing how people want it both ways when they have an axe to grind.
Thanks to all our followers who sent messages for Stephen. We had a really happy and positive visit; some potentially good developments regarding CCRC pressing CPR for disclosure. Fingers cautiously crossed.
Looking forward to a three-hour visit with Stephen this Friday. Any messages of support will be passed on - they mean the world to him. Thank you all for your support, compassion and sense of true justice. stephenhamiltonisinnocent.co…

*NEED HELP!!!!*
Apologies for the radio silence, once I'm done with my masters I will be much more vocal again!
However, I do need your help. I am currently running a study for my dissertation and I need 250 participants.

Please do the study & share!

This is like a modern form of torture. Lock someone up for something they haven't done and then try to tell them they must attend courses for sexual offending when they aren't sexual offenders. If they won't submit then they're "in denial" and will be tortured until they confess.
I whole heartedly agree Simon, I was forced into admitting that I was indenial I made it clear after reading the psi that my probation service are not psychologists, OASya reports now reflect this.
#FORCED INTO #SUBMISSION. I be to speak with you on this matter! Jail all Noted

Ah, Danny Day, the liar’s liar. What a piece of work... sent an innocent man to jail & he still got to keep the £11,000 compensation he’d conned out of CICA .

So many falsely accused and wrongfully convicted people's lives are destroyed forever by being named while their false accusers are afforded their anonymity. This is not justice. This is bias, before charges, before arrest, before trial, before conviction.
Sir Cliff Richard has opened up about being falsely accused, and publicly named, without ever being charged or even arrested.
Sign our petition to change the law to give anonymity to those accused of sexual offences until charged 👇

I wish both sides could achieve balance and realise it's not about one side having preferential treatment; there are victims on both sides. We should fight for fair, balanced investigations and trials, rather than one side being favoured. Justice depicted as scales for a reason.

This is why I am advocating the prosecution of false accusers such as serial rape liar Jemma Beale. It’s virtually the only way for innocent victims of false sexual allegations to nail the lies that have been told about them & strip the liars of their lifelong anonymity.
