This recent power abuse case highlights how sorely I've missed proper legal representation. There are a number of similarities: search orders falsely procured, false imprisonment (restriction on "Lily's" movement) & behaviour amounting to "misfeasance" - an abuse of power, not to mention misleading a judge and fabrication of events.

But what really struck me is that the police can indeed investigate a lawyer for perverting the course of justice (PCJ) after a case has finished, something Scotland Yard, MET's Special Crime Directorate, police told me they couldn't do when a member of the public makes the complaint. That is increasingly looking like a poor excuse: if they can do it themselves with seemingly no hard evidence, why can't they do it when a member of the public provides evidence? This was effectively child abduction, not money laundering. It also looks increasingly suspicious that the recorded delivery documents I sent to Scotland Yard have never been acknowledged to this day.

Also, with such huge payouts, it makes my failed attempts to secure legal representation even more baffling.
