On 27 January 2010, Brian attended Southwark Crown Court with his friend Geoffrey Bacon. Brian had prepared an
overnight bag for prison. He was determined that he would rather go to prison
than say that he was guilty of an offence he knew himself to be innocent of.
The indefatigable Geoffrey Bacon sat impassively in the public gallery. He had
shown himself to be a true friend. He was upset that Brian had been found
guilty of an offence he knew his friend to be innocent of, and he was also
upset that he had not been called as a witness.
Brian was not sentenced to prison, but was served with a Sexual
Offences Prevention Order (or SOPO).
This Order was somewhat comical in reality. Brian was ordered not to
seek the company of any young person under the age of 16. (He never did seek
such company).
It was ordered that he could not visit, reside or spend the night in a
dwelling where an unsupervised person under the age of 16 [excepting
grand-children] lives, unless authorised by a Police Officer from the relevant
Public Protection Unit.
It was ordered that he must not seek any work – paid or unpaid – which
would bring him into contact with under-16s.
It was ordered that he must not use any computer or similar device for
accessing the Internet in order to access chat rooms, send instant messages or
file swapping, except for the purpose of employment.
It was ordered that he must not seek employment using any other name
than Brian Pead.
He was placed on Probation and told that he must attend weekly
counselling sessions in London and be placed on a sex offenders’ treatment programme.
Brian refused to attend such a programme. They wanted to video him. He
said he is not a sex offender and that any videoing of him would be a breach of
his human rights. He informed Probation about police corruption. They did
nothing.
Until 31 August 2011 when he had sent out numerous letters to the
Prime Minister, the Director of Public Prosecutions, the Minister for Justice,
the Home Secretary, the Lord Chief Justice, all the justices of the Supreme
Court and their ilk.
On that night eight police officers and five vehicles surrounded his
house, climbing on the back roof of his house, smashing down his back door with
a sledgehammer and arrested him because he failed to attend probation
immediately after his father had died.
Our account ends here - almost. The third part of this intriguing
trilogy can be found in Emily Birch Went
to Church. This true crime account tells the gripping story of how Emily
Birch was used as a decoy to get her grand-father in prison, where Brian’s
cellmate was none other than celebrity gangster, Dave Courtney. The two men had a lot to
discuss. Brian had been held on remand of the witness intimidation of his own
grand-daughter, who had never been a witness in any trial. The evil
perpetrators of the Hillsborough cover-up were continuing to pervert the course
of justice in an attempt to prevent Brian Pead from speaking out ...
But now we come to the final piece of this particular jigsaw. Each Court
keeps a register of cases, as you might expect. There is no record for the ‘trial’ in which Brian Pead found himself.
It was, as you may have already suspected, just smoke and mirrors designed to
prevent him from revealing the truth about child abuse in Lambeth.
The page opposite shows the trials that Loraine-Smith was involved in.
Note that on 4 November 2009 he presided over R. v Stephen Smithey and
on 12 March 2010 he presided over R. v
Denise Bohannan.
There is no mention of Brian Pead’s trial which commenced on 14
December 2009. His book from Hillsborough
to Lambeth was the subject of two gagging orders against it. The website www.allaroundjustice.com which
highlighted the police corruption in this trial was taken down unlawfully by
the Government.
The website http://lambethchildabuseandcoverup.com
was also unlawfully removed from the internet, despite being hosted in
Slovakia, which is outside of the jurisdiction of the Courts of England and
Wales.
Brian Pead was, and is, an innocent man.

Afterword 1
On Valentine’s Day (February 14) 2013, Brian travelled to the National
Children’s Home offices in Hackford Road, Stockwell, London. The charity had been re-named Action
for Children. Brian was seeking his file
for the five years he spent in the home.
His file was an informative document and he was able to take it away
with him. It raised more questions for him than it answered.
He was not allowed access to the files belonging to his brothers, even
though Action for Children claim that anybody
can access these files in the name of research.
His own file contained no photographs and yet he knew that it ought to
have done. Certain names and paragraphs had been redacted from certain
documents. He had, in September 2012, been studying the redacted files on the
Hillsborough website and he formed the view that redaction is usually used to
‘hide’ information. Sometimes this is because some people, for example, do not
wish for their name and/ or address to be made available to the world, but on
other occasions it is because those in authority have something to hide from
the world.
In 1869, the Reverend Thomas Bowman Stephenson,
together with Francis Horner and Alfred Mager, founded a children’s home
for orphans and abandoned children in a disused stable in Lambeth.
In 1871, the Lambeth home was given approval by the Wesleyan Methodist
Conference and moved to Bonner Road in Hackney.
In 1913 a new branch was opened at Harpenden and it was possible to
transfer the whole community of 350 children from London to this new flagship
branch.
Hackford Road, Stockwell, by the
way, is in the London Borough of Lambeth.
