Financial Fraudster News investigations can reveal Chief Crown Prosecutor Rose-marie Franton and CPS Lawyer Andrew Sarkany of Thames and Chiltern CPS conspired with Hertfordshire Police Constabulary Detective Constables Sian Beames and David Quinn to fraudulently induce Stevenage Magistrates’ Court and Emily Martin the Governor of HMP High Down, a Surrey based male category B training Prison to produce a serving inmate to the Court in the belief that the prisoner had been charged with offences when he had not.
Financial Fraudster News investigations has spoken to UK Prisoner Support Services an organisation helping UK prisoners transition from prison life to civil society through mentoring programmes, signposting, and grant funding initiatives.
Jonathan Barnes a UK legal spokesperson stated “I am shocked and quite frankly concerned about this incident, we were contacted by the inmate at HMP High Down due to his concerns about an abuse of position by Herts Police and the CPS. The inmate said he had not been charged with any offences…we sought to establish the facts around the allegation and attended a second hearing on 30th August 2023 at Stevenage Magistrates’ Court and witnessed the unfolding events. The inmate clearly distressed, appeared agitated and made representations in person that he had not been charged with any offence(s). The inmate also stated that no documentation from the Court or the CPS had been served via the Prison.”
A UKPSS court monitor minuted the hearing that recorded the Magistrate who ordered that the CPS provides the inmate with proof of a lawful charging process of offence(s) and initial disclosure by 8th November 2023, amid the inmate’s verbal submissions to the Magistrate that he had not been charged with any offence(s) and had not received any paperwork from the CPS Lawyer Andrew Sarkany.
Financial Fraudster News investigations has seen Prison documents signed by the mailroom manager at the Prison confirming that no mail from the CPS has been given to the inmate, and that the inmate has had no visits from the Police, CPS lawyers or CPS representatives since his arrival at the Prison in June 2022.
Financial Fraudster News investigations crime contributor and former Met Officer, Robert Smith has reviewed the evidence and stated “the act of gross professional misconduct amongst Stevenage Magistrates’ Court staff, Hertfordshire Police Officers, Sian Beames and David Quinn and Thames and Chiltern CPS Lawyer Andrew Sarkany to conspire to pervert the course of public justice that has led to a man held in custody who has not been charged with any offence(s) herded into a British Court and asked to face allegations, an event that can only happen by a co-ordinated effort from corrupt public servants and officials…this unprecedented act could only be effected by senior Court staff, Police and CPS…once arrested by the Police no-one can appear in a Magistrates’ Court to face criminal allegations without first being charged…typically an inmate would be subject to requisition or production to a Police Station for the formal charging process to take effect or representations by the Police or CPS that would take at the Prison establishment and a paper trail would follow, MG4, MG5, requisition document, production orders and initial disclosure would be made available to the suspect…it appears that this was circumvented for reasons only known to DC Sian Beames and DC David Quinn of Herts Police and Thames and Chiltern CPS Lawyer Andrew Sarkany.”
