News Release

Evidence attached (as if it were now needed) that Messrs Alex Salmond (First Minister of Scotland), Kenny MacAskill ("Justice" Secretary for Scotland), Ms Nicola Sturgeon (Depute First Minister and Health Secretary for Scotland) and the SNP "Government" hierarchy conspired to pervert the course of justice in the run up to the Scottish parliamentary elections in May 2007 ... to cover up for their senior politicians criminal actions, inactions and wrong-doings over the previous 8 YEARS in the appalling Mr X neglect and abuse scandal ... and therefore avoid a major political scandal prior to gaining power.

Yet still NO-ONE dares hold them to public account ... and the SILENCE about this ("censored") case is deafening.

__________

Letter of Thursday 3 April 2008 to First Minister of Scotland, Alex Salmond MP, and other relevant documents attached (and letter of 3 April also copied below)

Refusal to release the case file documents and photographs by the SNP "Government" in the shocking Mr X case, will be mirrored in every other case in Scotland now requesting "disclosure" from the Scottish Crown Office ... under the rule of Messrs Salmond and MacAskill

First Minister of Scotland tells very frail & ill 84-year-old lady: "Get lost!"

A very arrogant, smug, devious and tyrannical First Minister of Scotland, Alex Salmond MP, refuses to unreservedly apologise, admit his wrong-doing, continually covers up for close friends and then eventually just tells a very frail, ill and desperate 84-year-old lady (just a stone's throw away from his very palatial Edinburgh residence) to "clear off and don't bother me again" ... after 14 very gruelling and traumatic months of pleading with him for help and the Truth, Justice and Reconciliation

__________

First Minister of Scotland, Alex Salmond MP, STILL covers up neglect and abuse case ... in the case of a brain damaged man left to rot like a wild animal for several years

Massive, harrowing, damning and incriminating case file documents and photographs STILL remain unlawfully withheld and deeply buried at SNP HQ in central Edinburgh, in a blatant attempt to cover up the case from the public / media spotlight and protect the main protagonists involved in this 9 year long whitewash - not least Scotland's so-called Cabinet Secretary "for Justice", Kenny MacAskill MSP.

In short: Criminal collusion at the very top of Scotland's SNP "Government" - overseen and approved by Alex Salmond MP / MSP - to cover up the Mr X case.

Please help to highlight and expose the terrible injustice, wrong-doing, most heinous neglect of "care" and cover up that is the appalling Mr X case ... in the interests of the TRUTH, fairness, human rights, compassion and JUSTICE.

I am grateful for your time and look forward to hearing from you.

"The Mr X case will NEVER be properly challenged or exposed in / from Scotland, as it goes right to the heart of the SNP-ruling Scottish "Government", and that has been the case for a very long time now"

"To sin by SILENCE when they should protest makes cowards of men"

"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil [and INJUSTICE] is for good men to do nothing"

"Do not be afraid of them therefore. For everything that is now covered will be uncovered, and everything now hidden will be made clear. What I say to you in the dark, tell in the daylight; what you hear in whispers, proclaim from the housetops"

__________

Some quotes from Mr X case:

"The best years of his life have been completely wasted, ruined and destroyed and can never be given back to him... NOTHING will ever compensate for what's happened to him now...

"I'm glad to see I wasn't the only one who failed Mr X, although I would like to be able to say that someone in my profession had helped him... "

____

Yet still nothing was done. To the detached observer it seems at best incredible, and at worst heinously negligent, that no-one properly intervened.

_____

When you are fully informed of any wrongdoing, criminality and injustice, and you choose not to properly act and intervene to put an immediate stop to that wrongdoing, criminality and injustice, then you too are undoubtedly complicit, culpable and guilty for your actions or inactions.

Dear Mr Salmond,

Request for the return of confidential photographs and files from the SNP - Letter No.16 (Since 12 February 2007) Requesting Same

I refer to the letter from your Office Manager, Hannah Bardell, dated Friday 7 March, which I only received on Wednesday 12 March. This was in response to my 14th letter to you over the past 14 months in which I request the return of confidential photographs and files from the SNP and for a full and wholly impartial independent inquiry into the “care”, ill-treatment, neglect and abuse of my son over all these years – the full case circumstances, event by event.

I note that, yet again, you refuse to respond to me personally or answer my questions about whether you or Ms Sturgeon discussed this case with Mr MacAskill and when you talked to him about the case. I also note that Hannah Bardell ends her very dismissive response by stating: As this is Mr Salmond’s constituency office, parliamentary rules dictate that we only intervene in constituency cases. Therefore, I am writing to inform you that any further correspondence to this office will not receive a response. How convenient. This is precisely what Ms Sturgeon said in her letter to me 3 years ago, on 7 April 2005.

When I first wrote to you 14 months ago on 12 February 2007 (and subsequently on 1 and 9 March 2007), 7 weeks prior to the dissolution of parliament and 3 months prior to the election itself, I was writing appealing for your help and intervention in this case “as the Leader of the SNP (and potentially the next First Minister of Scotland) with the power to make things happen amongst your ranks” and for “this matter [to be] fully resolved before the dissolution of the Holyrood Parliament at the end of March [2007]”. A reminder of my first letter to you is attached yet again.

You knew fine that given my and my family’s justified anger at Mr MacAskill’s actions and inactions in this case (from the very outset in August 1999, over 8½ years ago), I had no intentions of contacting him ever again, especially after a further 6 letters appealing for his help and intervention going to his office between 19 January and 20 June 2005, and then another 7 letters between 27 March 2006 and 16 January 2007 – not including the letter copied to him by Ms Sturgeon of 18 August 2006, which I have now copied to you twice.

Whilst I accept that the tone of my letters to you became angry and accusatory, from my sixth letter dated 27 September 2007 onwards, I can make no apologies to you for that at this point in time – especially given your continued procrastination, intransigence, criminal collusion and concealment, conspiracy to pervert the course of justice and theft of my family’s property.

I would have continued to admire and respect you Mr Salmond had you done the right, fair, just and decent thing in this appalling case, when I first approached you 14 months ago seeking your help and intervention. You had ample opportunity on 3 occasions prior to the dissolution of parliament at the end of March 2007 to try to help build bridges and resolve matters. Instead you decided, no doubt with the pending Scottish elections at the forefront of your mind, to just fob me off and hope the case would go away. You and / or Mr MacAskill should have taken a far more conciliatory, just, fair, humane and compassionate approach to matters and called me and / or other very concerned parties into your offices at SNP HQ on McDonald Road (or into Bute House at No. 6 Charlotte Square, both but a stone’s throw away from here) to try to discuss and resolve matters, and unreservedly apologise for what has happened at the murky hands of the many unaccountable individuals, agencies and Edinburgh / Scottish authorities involved in what was allowed to happen to my son over all these unimaginable, unbelievable, neglectful, destroyed and lost years. But it would appear that the Truth, Justice and Reconciliation just doesn’t enter the vocabulary or thoughts of the two powerful men who now rule and govern Scotland with an iron fist.

This very serious matter is far from being resolved to any satisfactory conclusion and my mantra remains the same as when I first contacted you 14 months ago:

The formal request for the return of confidential photographs and files from the SNP (currently being unlawfully withheld from my family by the SNP, and very well hidden and buried in Mr MacAskill’s constituency office at SNP HQ on McDonald road, right beside your Duncan Ross) and for a full and wholly impartial independent inquiry into the “care”, ill-treatment, neglect and abuse of my son over all these years still stands – 14 MONTHS (and 16 letters) ON from my initial contact with you.

For goodness sake Mr Salmond, please show this very frail and failing 84-year-old lady (whose life has been completely ruined by what was allowed to happen to her son) that you are the man of "Wisdom, Justice, Compassion, Integrity" I once thought you were, and not just another promise the earth Scottish politico who has let himself be corrupted by the trappings of power … for the sake of myself and all fellow Scots who are currently suffering the most cruel and appalling injustices at the hands of the Scottish authorities, and a beleaguered and greatly discredited justice system.

Thank you for your time and full co-operation.

I look forward to hearing from you personally in early course.

As with all previous letters to you, this letter will be copied to both your constituency office and the Scottish Parliament. [Resent Thursday 3 April 2008 – cc: Kenny MacAskill MSP, Scotland's Cabinet Secretary "for JUSTICE"]

Dear Mr Salmond,

Request for the return of confidential photographs and files from the SNP

On Tuesday 16 January 2007 a formal request for the return of confidential photographs and files pertaining to the case of my disabled, abused and ill-treated son was made of your friend and colleague, the SNP Justice Spokesman, Kenny MacAskill MSP. The same request was then made of your friend and colleague, the SNP Deputy Leader, Nicola Sturgeon MSP, after it became patently clear (in his email response on Thursday 18 January 2007) that Mr MacAskill would not co-operate or adhere to this legitimate request. Ms Sturgeon completely ignored these subsequent requests too.

Would you please see to it, as the Leader of the SNP (and potentially the next First Minister of Scotland) with the power to make things happen amongst your ranks, that these confidential, harrowing and disturbing photographs (and the relevant requested files) are returned to my family at the earliest opportunity. These photographs and files do not belong to Mr MacAskill or the SNP. They are the property of my family.

I would like this matter fully resolved before the dissolution of the Holyrood Parliament at the end of March. The photographs and files requested can be sent to me by Special Delivery post (I will reimburse the SNP for the cost of postage if required) or collected from your HQ on McDonald Road – I.D. or a mandate will be provided on request.

Please don’t make a frail 83-year-old lady, now in the winter of her life (a life which has, along with my family’s, been utterly devastated by the ill-treatment, abuse and neglect of a disabled loved one), fight and beg for what is rightly her family’s property – not that of a politician or political party.

I am currently staying with friends in the Scottish Borders, but my mail and answer machine are checked regularly. You can therefore contact me by writing to my home address or by leaving a message on my answer machine.

I look forward to hearing from you (not Mr MacAskill or Ms Sturgeon) in early course.

Thank you for your time and co-operation with these very serious matters.

******************************************************************************************

A FINAL APPEAL to the First Minister of Scotland, Alex Salmond MSP / MP, for the TRUTH, JUSTICE and RECONCILIATION in the appalling case of Mr X ... the brain damaged victim who was abused, ill-treated and neglected by the Edinburgh / Scottish authorities for 20 YEARS.

Shame on them ALL.

Dear Mr Salmond,

Request for the return of confidential photographs and files from the SNP - Letter No.17 (Since 12 February 2007) Requesting Same

Thank you for your last letter of 3 weeks ago. My apologies for this delay in responding, but I have been very unwell and can’t deal with matters as I would ordinarily prefer.

I have now copied my last letter to you of Thursday 3 April to Mr MacAskill twice, but get no response.

Perhaps you could now intervene in this very serious case of the terrible abuse, neglect and ill-treatment of my son over the past 19½ years – as I have been asking (begging and pleading with you in effect) over the past 15 months, since my first letter of 12 February 2007.

Thank you for your time and full co-operation.

I look forward to hearing from you personally in early course.

As with all previous letters to you, this letter will be copied to both your constituency office and the Scottish Parliament.
