Fight the Power

In which one of the longtime readers here, the Witchfinder General, deals a blow to Clown World in the UK:

MHN Editor Samuel Collingwood Smith’s claim against Hertfordshire Police has been settled on favourable terms, which are included below. Police have paid my damages and costs, in total, £34,000. They have admitted that I was unlawfully arrested, detained and committed no crime. They have agreed to correction and / or deletion of various records. I generally tend to be magnanimous in victory, so I am going to park police criticism for now on this topic. Instead, I now plan to continue my public interest scrutiny of the extremists who falsely reported me and their supporters. For transparency, I have included the whole settlement below save the text of the agreed marker, the signature images and the name of the police solicitor. Those have been redacted to prevent the information being misused.

It’s important to note these wins, because in many of these cases, the process is the punishment. That’s why the police and the various government agencies often pursue pointless and unwinnable cases against innocent people.

Most people have neither the resources nor the stamina to fight back when they are attacked in this manner. So congratulations to the Witchfinder for what is an important and inspiring victory.
