PC-067: An Education in Evidentiary Etiquette for Those Who File Without Reading



⟡ Metropolitan Police — The Administrative Failure to Comprehend Continuity ⟡

Filed: 25 October 2025
Reference: SWANK/MetPolice/PC-067
Download PDF: 2025-10-25_Core_PC-067_MetPolice_LinkedReferences_RequestForConsolidation.pdf

Summary: A formal rebuke to the Metropolitan Police for fragmenting interlinked harassment and data-offence reports arising from the EveryChild Contact Centre incidents of 24–25 October 2025.


I. What Happened

Between 24 and 25 October 2025, three separate police submissions were filed regarding the same factual matrix — harassment, coercion, and potential data-crime by Westminster-commissioned agents operating under the EveryChildbrand.

The reports are:
• TAA-53631-25-0101-IR — Juliette Ero · Harassment & Disability Discrimination
• TAA-53673-25-0101-IR — Kirsty Hornal · Retaliatory Conduct & Institutional Harassment
• BCA-79378-25-0101-IR — Juliette Ero · Covert Recording Allegation (Data Protection Act 2018 s.170)

Each describes the same location, the same stress-induced asthma episode, and the same pattern of institutional aggression disguised as “procedure.”


II. What the Document Establishes

• That the Metropolitan Police received three pieces of the same narrative and failed to notice the continuity.
• That Westminster’s subcontracted operators engaged in behaviour meeting the statutory definition of disability harassment.
• That a possible data-protection offence remains unacknowledged while victims are forced to provide tutorial-level clarifications to their supposed protectors.
• That the administrative intellect of public service has fallen below evidentiary literacy.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

Because the SWANK Evidentiary Catalogue does what the Met cannot:
it reads, cross-references, and preserves coherence.

This entry exists to demonstrate the intellectual collapse of investigative logic in contemporary policing and to provide a template for remedial education in evidentiary continuity.


IV. Applicable Standards & Violations

• Equality Act 2010 s.20 — Failure to honour reasonable communication adjustment.
• Data Protection Act 2018 s.170 — Unlawful obtaining of personal data (covert recording).
• Victims’ Code 2020 — Failure to provide linked information and support.
• Police Reform Act 2002 — Failure to link connected misconduct allegations.


V. SWANK’s Position

This is not “duplicate reporting.”
This is evidentiary choreography, and the Met is still learning the steps.

We do not accept bureaucratic amnesia as an investigative stance.
We reject the pre-tense of confusion by those paid to connect information.
We will document until literacy is restored.

Hornal & Brown (In Re: The Inbox Awakens) – Strategic Email Timing as an Institutional Defence Mechanism



⟡ The Last-Minute Optics Parade

Hornal & Brown (In Re: Theatrical Compliance) – A Narrative Audit of Performative Responsiveness Before Court


Filed: 9 July 2025

Reference Code: SWANK-ADD-0709-MANIPULATION
Court File Name: 2025-07-09_Addendum_ManipulativeTiming_KirstySam
Document Type: Addendum
Jurisdiction: Central Family Court, London
Summary: Kirsty Hornal and Sam Brown reemerge from a year of silence with suspiciously timed inbox activity — conveniently just before their performance in Court.


I. What Happened

From February 2024 until early July 2025, correspondence from Polly Chromatic to Westminster Children’s Services was met with either silence or bureaucratic shrugs. Medical updates went unshared, contact queries unanswered, safeguarding concerns filed into the void.

Then, suddenly — as if prompted by divine litigation choreography — Ms. Hornal and Mr. Brown returned to their inboxes. In the very week leading up to the 11 July 2025 hearing, both officers issued a cascade of responses. Vague, belated, and carefully composed — as though they’d finally remembered their jobs and the looming judgment that comes with it.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

This addendum demonstrates that:

  • Months of deliberate silence were broken only under threat of scrutiny.

  • A sudden surge of email responses from both officers was not coincidental — but timed to appear legally cooperative.

  • The illusion of engagement is being used to mask longstanding obstruction and evasion.

Their coordinated re-engagement was not the product of due diligence — it was the bureaucratic equivalent of last-minute vacuuming before an inspection.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

To archive the institutional theatre of timing.

To expose the strategy of litigation optics: delaying communication until the week of court, then replying with performative urgency. This is not responsive safeguarding — it’s procedural seduction. And it does not withstand audit.

The manipulation is not just in the emails — it’s in their absence, and in their timing.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989 – Section 22: Failure to consult or inform parents in a timely manner

  • Human Rights Act 1998 – Article 6 and 8: Undermining fair process and private life through intentional withholding

  • Public Sector Equality Duty: Failure to accommodate disability-related communication needs

  • Institutional Ethics: Email performativity in lieu of lawful duty


V. SWANK’s Position

This is not safeguarding. This is retrospective choreography.

Ms. Hornal and Mr. Brown are not safeguarding professionals responding to concern — they are narrative managers, issuing carefully timed replies to control the court’s perception of procedural propriety.

SWANK reminds all parties that the record will not be rewritten by a week of well-timed politeness.

The audit stands. The archive does not forget.

Brown (In Re: The Inbox Awakens) – On the Litigational Resurrection of Professional Engagement



⟡ The Timed Revival of Mr. Brown

Sam Brown and the Performance of Compliance: A Narrative Audit of Email Resurrection on the Eve of Court


Filed: 9 July 2025

Reference Code: SWANK-ADD-0709-SBCONTRADICTIONS
Court File Name: 2025-07-09_Addendum_SamBrown_ContradictionsTiming
Document Type: Addendum
Jurisdiction: Central Family Court, London
Summary: Strategic silence followed by sudden email activity reveals manipulative timing and coercive correspondence.


I. What Happened

For several months, Deputy Service Manager Sam Brown appeared to have taken a vow of email silence. Repeated parental concerns — including medical instability, contact requests, and safeguarding irregularities — were ignored or deflected.

Then, beginning 1 July 2025 — ten days before the scheduled hearing — Mr. Brown resurrected his digital presence with remarkable force. He sent over a dozen replies, attempting to reframe contact arrangements, acknowledge distress, and claim procedural propriety.

Unfortunately for Mr. Brown, the evidentiary record predates his performance.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

This addendum demonstrates:

  • Fabricated cooperation: Sudden contact scheduling framed as responsive when it was not

  • Procedural coercion: Contact offers tied to conditional meetings never previously disclosed

  • Narrative laundering: Blame shifting for communication failures that originated with the council

  • Performative flurry: A spike in replies timed precisely to distort judicial perception

It is not the content of the emails that’s most telling — it’s their timing.


III. Why SWANK Logged It

To document a common institutional ritual:
The resurrection of email engagement when scrutiny draws near.

This is not a caseworker doing their job. It is a communications strategy — an aesthetic gesture of responsiveness after a year of procedural negligence. It aims not to protect the child, but to protect the inbox from audit.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989 – Section 22(3): Inconsistent contact provision and failure to prioritise emotional well-being

  • Working Together to Safeguard Children (Statutory Guidance): Lack of multi-agency clarity and deliberate delay

  • Data Protection Act 2018 – Accuracy Principle: Misrepresentation by omission and delay

  • Ethical Negligence: Using legal proximity as the trigger for correspondence


V. SWANK’s Position

Sam Brown has not participated in this case — he has staged an appearance within it.

His behaviour is not that of a trauma-informed safeguarding professional, but of a strategically cautious institutional actor. The Court must be made aware that his digital re-emergence coincides with litigation pressure — not a sudden interest in family welfare.

The flood of July 2025 emails is not transparency. It is curated delay.

The record speaks — but only if the full timeline is read.

Hornal (In Re: Tone v. Substance) – Communications as Coercive Delay in Child Welfare Process



⟡ Her Majesty’s Caseworker, Reprimanded in Correspondence

Kirsty Hornal v. The Burden of Tone – A Narrative Audit of Emotional Evasion and Litigation Optics


Filed: 10 July 2025

Reference Code: SWANK-ADD-0710-HORNAL
Court File Name: 2025-07-10_Addendum_KirstyHornal_ContradictionsAndToneShift
Document Type: Addendum
Jurisdiction: Central Family Court, London
Summary: Emotional incongruence, strategic engagement timing, and correspondence optics raised to an art form.


I. What Happened

Between late 2024 and mid-2025, Kirsty Hornal of Westminster Children’s Services authored a stream of emails that veered between cupcake-flavoured sentiment and passive bureaucratic delay. Her signature blend of “Hope you’re okay!” followed by weeks of silence marked a pattern of delayed safeguarding engagement, punctuated only by the looming scent of legal consequence.

In one instance, she responded to a psychiatric collapse with a note about her forgotten lunch. In another, she equated life-threatening eosinophilic asthma with her husband’s mild congestion. These are not errors of empathy — they are structural deflections disguised as warmth.


II. What the Complaint Establishes

This submission asserts that Ms. Hornal’s communication record exhibits:

  • Strategic passivity: Months of non-engagement, followed by legal-proximate flurries of action

  • Procedural erosion: Undocumented cancellations, missed visits, and vague emotional updates in place of medical coordination

  • Tone-shifting inconsistency: A professional persona oscillating between maternal sentiment and passive-aggressive disinterest

  • Narrative laundering: Emails that feign accountability only when viewed in isolation, not across the documentary record


III. Why SWANK Logged It

To record the institutional craftsmanship of selective empathy.

To document how a Local Authority can engineer the illusion of responsiveness — with seasonal greetings, emoji-softened deferrals, and just-in-time legal compliance — while actively evading child welfare duties. To show that safeguarding, when filtered through optics and litigation strategy, becomes not care but choreography.


IV. Violations

  • Children Act 1989 – Section 22(3): Failure to give due regard to the child’s welfare

  • UN Convention on the Rights of the Child – Articles 3 & 24: Delay and minimisation of medical concerns

  • Human Rights Act 1998 – Article 8: Erosion of family life via opaque and contradictory correspondence

  • Ethical Negligence: Weaponisation of tone to evade accountability while appearing cooperative


V. SWANK’s Position

The burden of Ms. Hornal’s tone is not accidental — it is procedural theatre. We urge the Court not to be seduced by her sudden return to the inbox in July 2025, but instead to review the documentary whole: the ghosted queries, the cheerful deflections, and the weaponised silence.

There is no safeguarding in seasonal cheer.
No due process in “hope this helps.”
No lawful justification in a late-June update after a March refusal to reply.

This audit is filed not as a critique of one caseworker, but as an architectural observation: emotional inconsistency is not benign — it is an institutional mechanism. One that misleads. One that manipulates. One that must be formally documented.
