Graham Linehan arrested on arrival at Heathrow Part 2

[IDareSay]

First thread here

Started thread 2 as this seems destined to run for some time...

#chairpoverty

It's a windowless modern courtroom. I am not going to start describing the pattern of the carpet, but nothing is happening right now...

Sad times

P on her feet telling J that the C (SB) was in the well of court with two friends and DC objected so they were moved to the public gallery. In doing so one fell over which was "humiliating", but everything seems okay now.

What strikes me when I see the photos of the Complainent and supporters this morning is the number of young men. No female supporters i can see.

J right
P believes SB should be addressed according to their affirmed gender and name.
D says C is male and ID-ing as female does not alter this fact. DC will call C "the complainant" or "Ms Brooks". D will call C a male and use language like transsexual and gender ID.

J - language will not be policed, but it is likely that some of this language might cause offence - however any reactions from the public gallery including laughter as we had yesterday will not be tolerated and people will be removed if this happens.

Does the complainant’s age make a difference? Did glinner know he’s under 18? That bothers me.

Where are you seeing piccies?

[P calls Acting Det Sergeant Thomas Wells to give evidence for the P. He is affirmed]
P you are officer in the case
TW yes
P i/v\d GL on 5 Feb this year
TW yes
P did he have a prepared statement
TW yes

[also as I know it's important - J also said DC will use sex-based pronouns for SB]

Nick Wallis on X/Twitter

Do you know he was under 18 as there are other sources which suggest he is currently 20 ish?

[P taking the J through correctinos to GL's prepared statement, then reads it out] - in Oct 1994 I was an invited speaker at the battle of ideas - I was approached by Tarquin (GL's name for SB) who filmed me at close quarters and tried to disrupt the event, despite being ejected he was able to harass people around the venue. He put his camera right in people's faces in order to provoke a reaction. People put their hands or things in front of the camera which he treats as a game - at the end of the day T approached me again, at the end of the day and make a provocative statement about my family situation - this is a highly emotional matter to me - in response I grabbed the phone and threw it to one side - I am sure this is what he wanted - however I had had enough of his provocation. I did not intend to damage the phone I have been informed I might have a criminal or civil claim against him but I do not want to pursue this. I did write about him on X but as a journalist I wanted to expose the activities of trans activists. I understand there is video footage which I have not seen - I don't know how it has been edited before being handed to police. [NOTE THIS IS NOT VERBATIM!!!!]

P did you iv last 55 mins
TW yes
P did GL read out his statement and make no comment to any other questions TW yes

That raises the question of what age he was during his (Tarquin's) original harassment of the women, 11 months ago. If he was 17 then, okay (not okay, but he'd have been adult-ish), but if his team were using a (large, dimwitted) 16-year-old to do their dirty work that seems iffy - was it half-term?

[P asks TW about crickets being released into the QEII conference centre at the LGBA confy on 11 Oct 2024.]
P when were police called
TW 1619 hours by staff at the QEII
P have you seen the CCTV of the incident
TW yes
P did the incident happen shortly before the call
TW yes

P four individuals detained by conference staff
TW yes
P and none were
SB
TW correct.

[DC on her feet to x-e TW]
DC do you have "Chris" reports of the case?
TW yes

Sorry to interrupt the flow, do we know who the judge is?

“J for judge obvs. Once the youngest ever female judge in the country #trufact”

DC for benefit of the public they are basically all the docs related to the cases including any emails statements observations by police etc
TW [agrees]
DC there were three "Chris" reports for this case.
TW yes
DC initial complaint was an assault - then a robbery?

(I think it should be CRIS reports)

Of course it's "iffy". They were grooming him! Subjecting him to extremism. Which he gladly accepted.

Tarquin has been around since 2022 harassing women.

District Judge Briony Clarke.

his true age really matters after a few other things have been put on social media. As timelines dates and ages seem to indicate he could have been under age when he was doing some vexatious things to a wide range of people. And it’s very possible that he’s been groomed / used by these older men. Which doesn’t excuse it but is a factor to consider.

how he got Glinner’s number is also pertinent here given who he’s been associating with.

TW was initially recorded as robbery yes
DC then later in Oct a new "CRIS" [now correct] report was generated around harassment
TW yes
DC and a call was taken from a Lynsay Watson about online harassment
TW yes
DC let's look at the harassment (H) CRIS first...

DC so first of all there is a record of an online complaint from a man called Michelle Louise Burrows. That is a complaint which makes ref to event at the battle of ideas confy [which came a couple of weeks AFTER the LGBA crickets confy at QEII]

DC the complainant says former comedy writer GL approached a 17yo girl and called her a sissy-porn watching scumbag and there is no doubt she would have been assaulted had he not been dragged away. Since then he has been trying to doxx her to get one of his thousands...

... of followers to assault her. GL has previous - he was given a caution by Norfolk police - he has a murderous hatred of trans people I respectfully demand you investigate.
DC GL is a man of good character
TW correct
DC no convictions nothing on pol database

She appears to be a well qualified high flyer.
