“Though the Witch knew the Deep Magic, there is a magic deeper still which she did not know. Her knowledge goes back only to the dawn of time. But if she could have looked a little further back… she would have known that when a willing victim who had committed no treachery was killed in a traitor’s stead, the Table would crack and Death itself would start working backward.” - Aslan, C.S.

Summary: Personal affidavit by Polly Chromatic documenting three years of administrative harassment, medical intrusion, and fabricated reports by the Department of Social Development, Turks & Caicos Islands.


I. What Happened

• Between 2016 and 2020, the Department of Social Development (“DSD”) alternated between accusing, losing, and rediscovering Polly Chromatic and her children.
• Anonymous neighbours filed fantasies: drug use, naked children, unvaccinated minors — all investigated, all unfounded.
• In May 2017, DSD forced the family into the National Hospital for a public “examination” so improper it resembled a ritual: nine adults in a semicircle inspecting a child’s genitals.
• In August 2019 the department declared a “Care Plan” — a term of art apparently meaning “ongoing involvement without purpose.” No copy was provided to the parent; no basis was ever stated.
• By 2020, the same officials cited COVID regulations to justify further intrusions, arriving maskless and unlawful under the very statute they invoked.


II. What the Document Establishes

• Primary evidence of false community reports perpetuated as fact within official letters.
• Demonstrable violation of bodily integrity and child privacy through unauthorised medical examinations.
• Proof of administrative fabrication — records asserting “non-cooperation” where correspondence shows constant compliance.
• The institutional habit of turning accusation into occupation.
• Continuity between neighbourly malice and governmental narrative — gossip with a seal.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

• Because the document reads like a colonial operetta scored for clipboard and condescension.
• Because “safeguarding” has become the most elegant word for harassment.
• Because nothing reveals institutional character like its choice of adverbs when lying.
• Because evidence of this quality deserves archival curation befitting its outrage.


IV. Applicable Standards & Violations

• Children (Care and Protection) Ordinance 2015 ss. 17 & 19 — failure to complete investigations or share reports.
• Education Ordinance 2009 ss. 44 & 54 — disregard of lawful homeschool approval.
• UN CRPD Arts. 7, 17 & 25 — family integrity and medical consent.
• ECHR Arts. 6 & 8 — fair hearing and respect for private life.
• Equality Act 2010 s. 26 — harassment related to disability and belief.


V. SWANK’s Position

This is not “child protection.”
This is the administration of paranoia by correspondence.

• We do not accept inquisition as policy.
• We reject surveillance as care.
• We file every bureaucratic fiction as a confession in disguise.

PC-011: ⟡ IN RE POLLY CHROMATIC (TCI) [2020] SWANK 11 ⟡



When a Department Mistook Its Own Memory for Evidence.

Filed: 11 September 2020
Reference: SWANK / Social Development TCI / PC-011
Download PDF: 2020-09-11_Core_PC-011_SocialDevelopmentTCI_DisclosureNarrativeMisrepresentation.pdf
Summary: Disclosure letter from the Turks & Caicos Islands Department of Social Development, offering a narrative so inconsistent that it qualifies as creative writing with administrative stationery.


I. What Happened

• On 11 September 2020, Ashley Adams-Forbes, Acting Director of Social Development, sent a “Disclosure” letter to Lara Maroof ( James Law Chambers ) regarding Polly Chromatic and her four children.
• The letter reads like an unpublished novel about compliance and concern, in which every date is approximate and every omission intentional.
• It cites anonymous reports that never materialised, assessments that were never completed, and interventions whose only measurable outcome was administrative noise.
• Despite conceding that the children were healthy and the home stable, the Department proposed “continuing involvement,” proving that withdrawal, not welfare, is the institution’s true crisis.


II. What the Document Establishes

• Institutional self-exoneration: an agency editing its own reputation.
• Procedural fiction: the re-classification of delay as diligence.
• Evidence of medical and chronological invention.
• A live demonstration of colonial bureaucratic poetics — where adjectives perform the labour facts refuse to do.
• That disclosure, in the archipelago’s dialect, means anything vaguely typed before lunch.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

• Because the file is Exhibit A in the literature of administrative narcissism.
• For jurisprudential precision: the moment an institution decided to narrate rather than account.
• To educate future jurists that consistency is not merely a virtue — it is an evidentiary requirement.
• To remind posterity that sometimes a “disclosure” is simply a confession without punctuation.


IV. Applicable Standards & Violations

• Children (Care and Protection) Ordinance 2015 §§ 17 & 19 — failure to complete or disclose investigations.
• Data Protection Ordinance 2018 — false and misleading record-keeping.
• UN CRPD Arts 7 & 17 — protection of family integrity and bodily autonomy.
• ECHR Arts 6 & 8 — fair hearing and private life.
• Equality Act 2010 s.26 (UK cross-reference) — harassment through institutional communication.


V. SWANK’s Position

This is not “record-keeping.”
This is bureaucratic fan fiction.

• We do not accept improvised history as governance.
• We reject grammatical gaslighting as procedure.
• We file every misused semicolon as motive.

PC-826: A Four-Year Case with No Case: When Bureaucracy Mistook Persistence for Care.



⟡ Turks & Caicos Islands — Department of Social Development ⟡

Filed: 21 July 2020
Reference: SWANK/TCI Social Development/PC-826
Download PDF: 2020-07-21_Core_PC-826_TurksAndCaicos_SocialDevelopmentTimelineAndEosinophilicAsthmaDisclosure.pdf
Summary: Chronological correspondence evidencing prolonged administrative intrusion, medical disregard, and systemic harassment of a disabled parent under colour of child-protection oversight.


I. What Happened

• From 2016 to 2020, the Department of Social Development conducted repeated home inspections, summonses, and unsolicited visits to the home of Polly Chromatic, a U.S. citizen residing in Grand Turk, and her four children.
• Despite full co-operation and evidence of homeschool registration under the Education Ordinance (2009), investigations continued without articulated grounds or lawful purpose.
• The parent provided a timeline to Deputy Director Ashley Adams-Forbes, detailing constant inquiries into income, qualifications, and family life — none resulting in findings of neglect or abuse.
• On 30 June 2020, she formally declared her status as a clinically extremely vulnerable person with severe eosinophilic asthma, supported by medical records from the Royal Brompton Hospital (U.K.).
• The response from the Department was courteous in tone but void of remedy — an apology without redress, a rapport without compliance.


II. What the Document Establishes

• Evidence of prolonged and unfounded state surveillance against a disabled mother.
• Proof of medical disregard — the failure to respect respiratory and immunological vulnerability during a global pandemic.
• Demonstration of gendered and colonial administrative tone: authority couched as care, intrusion as interest.
• Chronological corroboration for later equality and safeguarding litigation in U.K. forums.
• Precedent material illustrating how “partnership with parents” functions as a polite synonym for coerced submission.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

• Legal relevance: establishes continuity between medical disability and procedural retaliation across jurisdictions.
• Educational precedent: case study in administrative gaslighting — the invitation to trust after years of violation.
• Historical preservation: records the moment when pandemic science met colonial social work and neither yielded.
• Pattern recognition: links TCI safeguarding culture to subsequent U.K. failures under the Equality Act 2010 and Human Rights Act 1998.


IV. Applicable Standards & Violations

• Children (Care and Protection) Ordinance 2015 s. 17(6) — failure to provide investigation reports to parent.
• Education Ordinance 2009 ss. 44 & 54 — failure to respect lawful homeschool arrangements.
• UN CRPD Articles 7, 17 & 25 — protection of children and persons with disabilities from discrimination in family life and health.
• ECHR Article 8 — unlawful interference with private and family life.
• Equality Act 2010 s. 26 — harassment related to disability.


V. SWANK’s Position

This is not “child protection.”
This is colonial monitoring rebranded as care.

• We do not accept the Department’s narrative of benevolent oversight.
• We reject the notion that repeated intrusion is a form of support.
• We will document every instance where administrative interest disguised itself as concern.
