02.01.1

About a week ago,

02.01.2

I was on my way to the city centre Tesco's,

02.01.3

when I saw a man with a placard,

02.01.4

which read

02.01.5

'WHICH PLYMOUTH SOLICITOR

02.01.6

BLACKMAILS BOYS INTO SEX,

02.01.7

WHILE POLICE TWIDDLE THUMBS?'

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

02.02.1

So I approached him,

02.02.2

told him it was interesting,

02.02.3

and asked

02.02.4

what the answer to that question was.

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

02.03.1

He told me, quite dramatically,

02.03.2

that he did not need to tell me the name

02.03.3

because the people of Plymouth knew his name,

02.03.4

and would provide it themselves,

02.03.5

for he has told people

02.03.6

to shout out the name of the Solicitor

02.03.7

when they see him [ with the sign ].

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

02.04.1

I found it a little perplexing

02.04.2

that he would not provide the name,

02.04.3

but then I was interupted by two local men,

02.04.4

who came up to the man,

02.04.5

and one said:

02.04.6

'You know who that is, don't you - Alan Harris '.

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

02.05.1

At which point ,

02.05.2

the man with the placard turned to me,

02.05.3

and said:

02.05.4

' As I said -

02.05.5

the people of Plymouth know him by name,

02.05.6

he has been doing it for a very long time.'

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

03.01.1

The man with the Placard

03.01.2

gave his name to me as 'Zen'

03.01.3

and also gave me

03.01.4

a folder of information he was carrying,

03.01.5

which I took home and read.

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

03.02.1

I then met with 'Zen' the next day.

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

03.03.1

I had told him

03.03.2

that if his story were true

03.03.3

I would like to potentially make a film about it,

03.03.4

to highlight the cause,

03.03.5

as I am very capable at this.

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

03.04.1

I met 'Zen'

03.04.2

and found him to be quite anti-authority

03.04.3

and yet to his credit

03.04.4

he seemed to be the only one

03.04.5

who was actually doing anything

03.04.6

about what is apparently common knowledge.

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

03.05.1

He told me again

03.05.2

about how

03.05.3

those deemed by the Solicitor to be vulnerable

03.05.4

are told that their case

03.05.5

will be presented very badly

03.05.6

and that they will do many years in prison

03.05.7

unless they have sex with him.

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

03.06.1

I had spent a long time talking with 'Zen'

03.06.2

and then an associate of his

03.06.3

arrived out of the blue,

03.06.4

and as he approached

03.06.5

'Zen' told me:

03.06.6

' Here is one of the victims '.

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

04.01.1

Meeting the victim

04.01.2

really opened my eyes

04.01.3

to the reality of what was being said.

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

04.02.1

The victim described to me

04.02.2

some details of his blackmail experience,

04.02.3

of his own volition,

04.02.4

but left

04.02.5

before I could take his full name

04.02.6

or his contact number.

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

04.03.1

I believe this was because

04.03.2

the memory was very upsetting for him.

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

04.04.1

The incident involved coercive rape

04.04.2

as well as a further incident of the Solicitor,

04.04.3

Alan Harris,

04.04.4

keeping all the victims files,

04.04.5

consisting of 15 years worth of priceless information

04.04.6

to do with the victim's career in Media.

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

04.05.1

A further blackmailing was done

04.05.2

in order for the victim

04.05.3

to get back his personal property.

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

05.01.1

I am now in the position

05.01.2

of only having a rather eccentric man - ' Zen '

05.01.3

as the steward of this little campaign

05.01.4

and I wonder if you might offer me some advice

05.01.5

as to how to help

05.01.6

bring this apparent criminality by a Solicitor

05.01.7

to the acknowledgement of the powers that be,

05.01.8

that is it seems;

05.01.9

the very courts he represents.

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

06.01.1

I request only that your reply

06.01.2

does not simply ask me to report it to the Police,

06.01.3

whom no-one seems to trust in this case,

06.01.4

and that you perhaps allow me

06.01.5

to talk to a local representative of yours.

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

06.02.1

Coercive rape is a serious crime

06.02.2

and as far as I can see

06.02.3

it is a definite breach of human rights,

06.02.4

especially when involving the young and vulnerable.

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

//////////////////////

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

06.03.1

If I was homeless and without family,

06.03.2

facing criminal charges,

06.03.3

I would not like to have such blackmail

06.03.4

given to me to absorb.
