“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. Lewis, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

Chromatic v Grand Turk – On the Illegality of Being Too Brilliant for Your Social Worker


I’m Raising Children — You’re Raising Suspicion

⟡ A Complaint of Maladministration, Institutional Cruelty, and the Weaponisation of Procedure

IN THE MATTER OF: Social Development vs. Maternal Competence, Clean Homes, and Fully Clothed Children

⟡ METADATA

Filed: 1 July 2020
Reference Code: SWANK-TCI-COMPLAINT-ASTWOOD
Court File Name: 2020-07-01_Records_ComplaintAstwoodGrandTurkAbuse
Summary: A 19-count formal complaint to the Turks and Caicos Complaints Commission, detailing years of unlawful, inconsistent, and medically harmful interventions by the Department of Social Development. The letter includes allegations of bias, harassment, racial and educational discrimination, COVID violations, and literal medical assault. It is a civic cathedral of composed outrage.

I. What Happened

Polly Chromatic (then known as Noelle Bonneannée) submitted this formal complaint after the Department of Social Development repeatedly:

  • Entered her property uninvited

  • Forcibly transported her children

  • Withheld communication

  • Acted on false neighbor reports

  • Ignored asthma and disability documentation

  • Weaponised mothering choices like sugar limits, trampoline assembly, and the location of her toilet.

It culminates in a tragic account of medically unnecessary and invasive examinations inflicted on her children under state watch — an act that still has not received institutional apology or accountability.

II. What the Complaint Establishes

  • That the state acted outside its statutory powers

  • That investigators repeatedly failed to follow procedure, maintain contact, or provide written updates

  • That false allegations were treated with more urgency than lived evidence

  • That social workers attempted to separate the children from their mother with no lawful cause

  • That medical misconduct occurred in the presence of multiple officers, professionals, and a silent curtain

  • That homeschooling, disability accommodation, and environmental parenting were all treated as threats, not rights

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because the truth is unbearable to institutions that function on narrative control — and this complaint removes that control. Because documenting one's own mistreatment should not require a law degree, a Royal Brompton medical file, and four traumatised children. And because there is no recovery without record — and no record as sharp, as damning, or as unignorable as this one.

IV. Violations

  • Trespass and unlawful entry

  • Medical assault and breach of bodily autonomy

  • Pandemic protocol breaches under Emergency Powers

  • Harassment, racial and philosophical discrimination

  • Failure to provide reports, updates, or procedural basis

  • Emotional and psychological abuse through forced separation and misinformation

  • Retaliation, surveillance-style visitation, and service refusal

  • Breach of maternal data privacy via third-party contact

V. SWANK’s Position

This complaint is a legal novella of state misconduct, written not in anger but in devastating clarity. SWANK London Ltd. recognises:

  • That lawful parenting does not require state permission

  • That the dignity of a child includes not being dragged to a hospital on their birthday

  • That medical procedures without necessity or consent are not “check-ups” — they are abuse

  • That systems which cannot define their own rules should not be allowed to enforce them

We file this entry in solemn recognition of the families harmed by the illusion of safeguarding, and in awe of the woman who — while baking a cake and holding a toddler — still managed to cite the law more accurately than the department assigned to uphold it.

Chromatic v Institutional Whiplash – On the Pedagogical Cost of Being Too Intelligent for Your Case File


Chronology of Confusion: A Timeline of Harassment, Homeschool, and the State’s Allergy to Autonomy

⟡ A Velvet Archive of Disruption, Misconduct, and Horticultural Misdirection

IN THE MATTER OF: A Family Trying to Learn and the State Trying to Prevent It

⟡ METADATA

Filed: 30 June 2020
Reference Code: SWANK-TCI-TIMELINE-HOMESCHOOL-INTERFERENCE
Court File Name: 2020-06-30_Court_Timeline_Abuse_Homeschool_TCI_SocialDevelopment
Summary: A clean, detailed chronology of years of harassment by the Department of Social Development in Turks and Caicos Islands, focused on the state’s persistent efforts to interfere with lawful homeschooling, compost toilets, environmental learning, and maternal sovereignty. Read it and weep (for the system, not the author).

I. What Happened

This document records a string of misguided interventions, false allegations, unannounced visits, confused welfare claims, and general procedural illiteracy by institutional actors who couldn’t tell the difference between truancy and Hugelkultur. It chronicles how a mother — equipped with intelligence, resilience, and a shovel — managed to out-teach the entire Department of Education without their permission.

II. What the Timeline Establishes

  • That the author was engaged in consistent, child-centred, curriculum-rich home education

  • That state interference was repetitive, vague, and unproductive

  • That concerns were often based on misinformation, neighbour complaints, or visual discomfort rather than substance

  • That every single complaint lacked meaningful follow-through, resolution, or accountability

  • That the mother repeatedly requested clarity, documentation, and protection — and was repeatedly ignored

III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because timelines are receipts — and this one reads like a slow-motion procedural collapse. Because in a world where verbal reassurance is meaningless, documentation is survival. Because no parent should have to choose between educating their children and defending themselves against social work intrusion. And because when someone says “I’m being harassed,” you should probably take notes — not send another visit.

IV. Violations

  • Repeated safeguarding interventions without cause

  • Disregard for legal homeschool rights

  • Pattern of surveillance-style disruptions

  • Failure to follow statutory thresholds for involvement

  • Neglect of parental disability status and formal complaints

V. SWANK’s Position

This document is a master timeline of institutional misconduct, logged not for vengeance but for truth. SWANK London Ltd. recognises:

  • That lawful education without government oversight is not a crime

  • That procedural abuse wears a smile and carries a clipboard

  • That false concern is the most efficient tool of real neglect

  • And that one well-kept timeline can outlive every department that tried to suppress it
