This and associated files have been on the internet more than 3 years now, known to all concerned in Wiltshire and strange as it may seem nothing libellous in any of the files. The 1996 Defamation Act amended the Limitation Act of 1980 to give a time limit of one year for any libel action. I informed all the corrupt bastards in Wiltshire in 2000 and since then have received no rebuttal letters from individuals or solicitors and no writs.

But of course the main reason there is no libel is the files are just straight reporting of events without any invention on my part. All the files have been recorded (on www.archive.org ) totally independently with the first file archived on 19 September 2000 and more than 40 versions of the files over the months and years since.

Crown v Paul NUTTEING

to be heard at Salisbury Magistrates Court 26th February, 2001, 10. 00 am

Charge Sheet
Between 16th June 1997 and 9th September 2000 at Salisbury in the County of Wiltshire pursued a course of conduct which amounted to harassment of STELLA CONSTANT and which you knew or ought to have known amounted to the harassment of her in that BETWEEN 1996 AND 2000 YOU CONTINUOUSLY SENT UNWANTED LETTERS TO STELLA CONSTANT, FAMILY MEMBERS AND PLACES OF EMPLOYMENT ALSO PLACING AN ARTICLE ON THE INTERNET ALL OF WHICH CAUSED STELLA CONSTANT HARASSMENT AND DISTRESS CONTRARY TO SECTION 2(1) AND (2) OF THE PROTECTION FROM HARASSMENT ACT 1997

Bail Conditions: Not to contact directly or indirectly Stella CONSTANT, Kelvin DAWSON, Andrew DAWSON, Honoria CONSTANT, Pauline DAWSON and John STODDART.



Neither Jane Warren nor Roger Norman Thomas Jones , Head of Wiltshire CPS, of 119 Semington Rd, Melksham dared to take this case to court.
They would not forward pre-trial disclosures to my solicitor of the forged letter JBS1 submitted as police evidence by John Barton STODDART or the criminal record of Stella Maria CONSTANT. The implied earlier criminal record of Stella CONSTANT is something else that Wilts Social Services should investigate.
The reasons for the discontinuance will become even more apparent reading the following file .
They had over five months to do so; three more weeks and it would have been automatic abuse of process for this sort of trial. This scheduled trial had to be specially empanelled. Because the two complicitous social workers operated regularly in Salisbury courts, magistrates from well out of area had to be found to avoid a prejudicial environment.


The solicitor, or whoever, in the precincts of Salisbury Magistrates gave me this great sheaf of 120 pages or so from Wiltshire CPS marked "DEFENCE" and told me do with it what I thought best. The other defendants hanging around seemed to just have 2 or 3 sheets marked "DEFENCE". So here it is on the internet as I think that is best.

No other persons present.

Introductions made NUTTEING advised of right to free and independent legal advice and cautioned
1084__ The reason that I arrested you this evening in relation of on suspicion of harassment w as following a complaint that I received from a Miss Stella Constant who came into the Police Station back in April of this year and she made a complaint to me that over a period of approximately four years since 1996 up until ...
R_____ As long as that two years okay
1084__ The present day that you have bombarded her and her family
R_____Not bombarded, I take exception to that, it was about half a dozen letters over three years I'd have said, well she says four years , maybe four years. It's not what I call bombarded .
1184__ Can I explain the reason that you were interviewed.
R_____ Yes
1184__ That you bombarded her family, her friends, neighbours and employers with literally hundreds of unwanted and unanswered letters
R_____No not hundreds, unsolicited letters I agree with but unless someone has totalized the figure I wouldn't say it was hundreds.
1184__ Okay. At that time when she came in, back in April, she made a complaint and made a written statement in relation to the harassment that she felt that you were causing her by sending those letters and she requested that you be advised to cease this course of conduct which is causing harassment. I arranged with Hampshire Police for somebody to come round and visit you in May of this year, May 2000 and a WPC VIVIAN replied to my letter saying that she'd call round to see you and advised you to cease in your course of conduct which is called the harassment.
R_____ Well as far as you go yes
1184__ Okay
R_____But she actually stated to cease sending letters to her , that is a whoever the complainant was which she didn't identify. I later phoned, I later contacted you by writing to find out who the complainant was.
1184__ Okay
R_____She didn't tell me at the time
1184__ This all took place in May, Miss CONSTANT returned to the Police Station back in I think August of this year and said that she was continuing to be harassed by your conduct
R_____I haven't harassed her at all. Her family has been harassing her if anyone I haven't.
It's pointless sending letters to her.
1184__ She feels harassed by the course of conduct which you are continuing with and wish to make a formal complaint of harassment against you.
R_____ The people I've sent letters to are entitled to call up the police, even send the letters back to me or whatever. I've not harassed her, I've not sent a letter for well over a year, it was March 1999 was the last letter I sent.
1184__ Okay
R______That was the last
1184__ What I'd like to go through with you , I've got some , some of the copies of some of the original letters, not all of them, I haven't brought all of them down with me, but basically to go through what Miss CONSTANT said in her statement. in her complaint against you and I'll go through this with you and then ask your opinions once I've gone through that with you. Do you understand
R_____Yeah
385___ I think what we could do to start with is perhaps you could tell us a bit of your history and how you know Stella and how it's led to you being here today.
R_____ I can enter up the whole lot written out here there's about 60K of words , didn't I send a copy to you.
385___ Yeah
R_____Yes it's because it's in the public domain not under my name.
1184__ What I'm, what we want you to do is explain to us how you know Stella, how you became ...
R_____ She, She ..
1184__ How you became involved ....
R_____ Okay
1184__ And what's led up .......
R_____ The basic problem is roughly twenty years ago, 1976, she had a daughter, well I can show you if you like, was registered, birth register with the father who is someone who is infertile and therefore cannot be the father and someone who she later married and in fact five years later married. She, she left me for whatever reason prior to the birth and I'll find the [documentary material], it's here somewhere. I'll take that lot out.
385___ You say this man's infertile, how do you know that
R_____Stella told me, she told me the sperm count and everything and in fact he was tested twice that you might say that's hearsay, I mean that's, I've no access to his medical records but that is , if you formally want me to admit as evidence, cos it's not, it's a photocopy.
1184__ For the purpose of the tape Mr NUTTEING is showing us the Birth Certificate of Naomi Leafe DAWSON.
R_____ The main point is the name of father as K D DAWSON
1184__ Who as Stella has stated in her statement is not the biological father she's stated that you are the biological father of ...
R_____ She actually stated that did she in the statement.
1184__ Yes
385___ Yes
R_____Oh right okay .
1184__ Yes that's not really in dispute she stated in her statement that she separated from you before the birth.
R_____ But that is perjury as such . She knowingly put down a false statement to a crown official.
1184__ Where was the birth registered.
R_____ Signed , signed by both parties. When it was registered.
1184__ Where
R____ Ah, Southampton, Bugle Street as far as I know.
1184__ They would be offences that would have to be investigated by.
R_____ Well the CPS have started investigating it already, back in April that's why I have had to be interviewed by Hampshire Police on that, in fact I had a follow up interview as well about other stuff relating to it.
1184__ Okay
R____ Anyway I actually pleaded with her to come back and live with me again after the daughter was born and the same thing happened again, she left prior to the son being born, but at least this time he was registered as illegitimate but given Kelvin's surname although they were married three years later, whatever that is perjury I've no idea probably is but it's false anyway, false information. That's how it started I never knew about that, it was only cos my daughter found by whatever means I dunno, I didn't contact her. I suspect who did contact her but I've no proof .. Ah, in about August 1996 she phoned me up saying straight off, I believe you are my father which I wouldn't deny, that's how it started but her informant that's my daughter's informant never told her about her son, [error] her, her brother being unrelated to this Kelvin Derrick DAWSON that's what it comes down to and then sort of continuing to , conspiring to disguise all this perjury and lying to my daughter so that she actually wrote to me cutting off all contact because according to her I was lying and deluded. I hadn't actually lied at all about anything except one thing to disguise her mother's behaviour but I got found out on that but that's very much a summary of it but the basic idea.
1184__ And as a result of this what was your actions
R_____I expected of course I'm not dealing with an honourable person, but I suspect that it's dragged on so long that it ruined my daughter's education at university, it's going to ruin, well let's call her son's education probably and because me daughter one of the reasons long before she contacted me knew .. I didn't go into details, what the blood groups were of her mother and Kelvin. I assume cos Kelvin might have a military passport so put me right if I'm wrong but anyway she found out that his blood group which she referred to as quite a rare blood group, she didn't actually say group B, but a rare, quite a rare blood group and she expected to have the same rare blood group and she doesn't, she has blood group A which is my blood group so it would be very easily arranged with my GP, that it's quite a standard procedure as long as everyone agrees, that GP will contact GP, exchange letters confirming blood groups. If Fian was blood group B then he couldn't possibly be related to me and that's the end of it. It wouldn't if he was A it wouldn't mean that I was the father but at least it would show that this Stella woman is lying through her teeth and that he couldn't possibly be the father. But it could have been easily settled in 1997 but now it's dragged out till this silly extent of smashing windows and god knows what but that is it.
1184__ Could you explain who you've sent letters to
R_____I think that's more up to you to tell me but certainly family, a couple of friends.
1184__ When I mentioned that Miss CONSTANT had mentioned hundreds of letters what estimate would you put at.
R_____ No, cos I haven't religiously sent the same letters to the same people each time but I would say on average five to however many people that she says I've been sending letters to but it's certainly not twenty people I've been sending letters to, twenty people to make a hundred letters you know
385___ And why have you been sending letters to these people.
R_____ Well I'll plead my case with anyone who's prepared to listen and all these people have, not a single one until two weeks ago , I got a round robin which this is a photocopy of on two sides from the four named people that this was the first indication in what she says four years, I'd say three years that anyone has not appreciated my letters, there's no threats in them.
385___ You say that you've never had a reply from any have you
R____ I've not had a reply from anyone so far. I assume that was acceptable. I mean if you find letters offensive you ...
1184__ Do you know these people
R_____No, I mean I met Mr DAWSON five or six years ago accidentally but other than that no. No they're all unsolicited letters.
385___ How did you find their details to send them to
R____ This was standard procedure for genealogy sort of thing, genealogy, but, the Catherine House Index you're not familiar with that.
[ For the assistance of anyone alighting on this file because of the person tracing aspects here is someone's file birth parent tracing story , otherwise skip]
1184__ No
385___ No
R_____You're kidding have you never heard of the St Catherine's House Index
1184__ No
R_____Oh right, do you want me to explain I mean ...
385___ Yeah
R_____Since 1837 to the current day every birth, marriage and death is registered locally, in this case [holding up Leafe's birth certificate] in Bugle Street, Southampton. All the records are collated on a three monthly basis and sent to the National General Record Office, GRO. They are over all collated together nationally in that sense and I don't know since when but certainly for decades they've been released to county by county in reference, usually records offices or reference libraries on - I can't believe I'm telling you this - but anyway accessible by anyone, you know a member of the public, private detectives, anyone like that. It's not illegal and there's enough information there then to apply for a copy of the certificate which is again perfectly legal to do, whether birth, marriage or death certificate for someone related or unrelated, it's quite standard procedure .
1184__ And from that index you can get peoples addresses can you.
R_____ No, I mean we're talking about old information I think this is 1976 [Leafe's registration in front of us]. I could have got their marriage certificate if I wanted to, that would have been 1981 but after 1992 you have to apply to the individual registry office, which you can access but it costs a bit more, it costs about £30 to have access to the indexes directly as distinct from the microfiches that go to the record offices.
1184__ Where do you get people's addresses from
R_____Addresses from, well the voter's list
1184__ Okay
R____ Again open information it's not illegal.
385___ What were you hoping to achieve by writing to all these people.
R_____ Well I was getting nowhere with this woman, I mean I had sent her two or three letters, gradually, well other than she'd be shouting and bawling down the phone in the middle of the night, harassment if you like but is actually. Absolutely getting nowhere but I decided, right, plead my case with as many people I could contact and that was what I did which is what I did and it has had an effect.
1184__ So what did you think would happen when you sent letters to people.
R_____ Well say one of these people here is an Andrew DAWSON and he is the younger brother of Kelvin DAWSON, well presumably they had the same parents or did have the same parents [their father died in 1986] and the same blood group so if I wrote a letter to him claiming that his brother had blood group B and this Andrew was blood group A, I'd expect him to write back a bit seriously, indignantly, and put me right or anything else. It was highly specific letters I was sending.
1184__ What about the other people on this list
R_____Ah that's the mother of Mrs CONSTANT and that's the mother of the two DAWSONS
1184__ What did you want to achieve by writing to them
R_____The same, get some dialogue going, getting somewhere but nothing came back, no rejection letters, not a thing, not from any of them, amazing but
385___ Did you think that Stella would find out about the letters
R_____Well more than likely
385___ It was quite obvious really wasn't it if it was a family of hers they say that you've written
R_____Assuming they're on speaking terms with one another but if she-. I know one friend who was friends with this Stella woman for twenty years but is totally non-friends now, they're totally antagonistic over this, obviously, cos, well I assume, they believe me or she believes me rather than believes Stella.
385___ And what about writing to her boss
R_____That was after the window was smashed yes, I mean. I happen to know someone who works for the Samaritans and going around smashing windows is not a rational way by any means and it's often a precursor to suicide and there's other medical argy-bargy that's ...
385___ I disagree with that
R_____Well he's a doctor, he's a doctor who's a councelor with the Samaratans
385___ We have a number of people in here for criminal damage and ...
R_____ Oh yeah if you're talking about drunks leaving a pub and kicking windows or smashing windows that's a different matter, this was premeditated, targeted.
385___ That's what you'll say it's not what Stella will say
R_____Well I don't know I mean she came from here to * , contacted her, well I wont say her name but her friend who lives in * and she, this friend, brought her to my new pub which Stella wouldn't know anything about. Why I don't know, this Stella woman started stalking me around the pub. I said quite loudly to everyone who could hear but not shouting that if she had anything to say then put it in writing, that's what I've been trying to get her to do for years, and she, I upped and left and she came round, same business again so I went right down to the other end of the pub, finished my pint and left and then an hour later almighty great cracking and banging from the front door at home, trying to break in including, cos there's a street light outside my glass door, trying to slide a credit card down the slot and using her keys to try and activate the lock with her own keys or something but then my neighbour said perhaps he's round **, which is just around the corner, neighbouring road, and she went round there and kicked this huge window in.
1184__ That's all been investigated hasn't it.
R_____ Yes it was processed by Hampshire Police as far as I know.
1184__ So that's been investigated by Hampshire Police and am I right in saying that she's agreed to pay for the damage
R_____In principle or some of the damage, it's ...
1184__ So that matter has been resolved in that respect ..
R_____ Well no it's in the process
1184__ Well it's in the process of being resolved, is that correct
R_____It's being processed, I don't know about resolved
1184__ You mentioned that you hadn't written to her employer other than about this window. I understand from her statement that she made back in April which is obviously prior to the window that you'd contacted her boss at that time and you sent a letter with the web-site details on.
R_____ Not me. No I sent a letter when was it, I've got a reply back from them somewhere, something about it being ..
1184__ So that must have been sent prior to April of this year
R_____As far as I know I sent, I sent two letters to Mr STODDART I think it was, here we are.
The first one was 30th May and then one recently this notification that failed to get through to her about taking her to civil proceedings in small claims court.
385___ You sent it prior to that window being damaged then
R_____Sorry, what prior to
385___ You sent him a letter prior
R_____No the window was smashed on 28th May
1184__ So if I speak to Mr STODDART he will confirm that he's had no contact with you prior to that date
R_____Oh I contacted, what was her name MIDDLETON or something or other. That's right I addressed the letter to Mrs MIDDLETON. I think it was the wrong department and she sent the letter on to Mr STODDART
1184__ When was that
R_____A week or two before this ...
1184__ What I'm saying is had you made contact with her employer before the window had been smashed
R_____No, cos, I mean I wrote it on the 30th May but not to Mr STODDART he ...
1184__ I'm not , I'm not talking specifically I mean anyone at her place of employment, had you written to any person at her place of employment prior to the window being smashed
R____ No, but not before this one, it hasn't got a date on there so, ah the 16th June, yeah, sorry
1184__ Cos, when Mrs CONSTANT made her statement in April she sent, mentioned in her statement that you'd contacted her employer and left a Web-site detail and implied that she wasn't a fit person to be doing her job or words to that effect
R_____No
1184__ So you're disputing that that's taken place
R_____Yeah I have written to her employer but ..
1184__ You're saying it all took place after 30th May
R_____Mm
1184__ You're adamant about that
R_____Yeah
385___ And have you written saying she's unfit
R_____Well yes, I was referring to the suicide thing
385___ But that's your opinion the suicide, it's not fact is it
R_____Yes but I mean she's dealing with children and other peoples families, look at what she's done to her own family, I'd hate to think that ...
385___ But what sort of effect would that have had on her at work
R_____She should get herself sorted out
1184__ Going back to making contact with her employer, did you make contact in any other way than writing. Did you fax him
R_____No
1184__ Or send a computer message
R_____I didn't even know what the name of the employer was cos the original letter I sent to a different department, I mean Social Services but it wasn't actually directed to him
1184__ What about Mrs CONSTANT's neighbours
R_____Yes, yes I sent them one letter each I think
1184__ One letter each and what did you hope to achieve by that because surely they wouldn't have been blood relations of ..
R_____ I can't remember they were long term neighbours
1184__ Fian
R_____Long term neighbours, I was just trying to find out what's happened to my daughter and things. I mean the last contact I had with her was in Leicester two years ago and I couldn't, I wouldn't get anything out of her parents so I thought I might get some information out of the neighbours but I was wrong on that count, they obviously sent the letters straight next door , both of them and that was the end of that
385___ You must have thought that was going to happen though when you were writing about Stella in letters
R_____No, no there was nothing offensive in there but ..
385___ Well in your opinion
R_____ Well I mean it's not like what I think really of harassing people, pushing dog shit through letterboxes and things like that, that is
385___ But I think it's very harassing that you've written to her work and claimed that she may be suicidal and that's purely conjecture on your part you've got no evidence, no experience about that at all
R_____ Yeah, I quite agree so it's ..
385___ That's quite a cruel thing to say really ...
R_____ It's very justifiable, I think. I mean if she was a Traffic Warden ..
385___ Well she's not suicidal though
R_____ If she was a Traffic Warden or something like that it would be a different matter but ...
385___ She's not suicidal, she's not been assessed, she's not needed any assessment and she's not suicidal so it's a cruel lie. You've based it on damage to a window
R_____ And all that goes along with it but ...
385___ But what sort of, you know, when the boss picks that up what is he supposed to think
R_____ What he is supposed to think. That it needs a bit of investigating, check out there isn't some foundation there ...
1184__ You must have known that when you made that contact that that's going to cause her some sort of distress to her
R_____ Imagine the distress to me. I can't afford to replace this window [10 ft x 6 ft , 8 mm thick plate glass]
1184__ You must have known that when you sent that letter to her boss mustn't you
R_____ To her boss
385___ What were you hoping for her to get the sack
R_____ No I was hoping for her to get treated
385___ Surely she's the one if she wants treatment to seek it herself
R_____ No it's up to her family and GPs and things
385___ She hasn't seen you for twenty years or so. Why are you the fount of all knowledge on whether she should have treatment
R_____ I can't, I can't get her committed I mean it's up to her husband and other people, I can't do it.
385___ In those twenty years since this baby was conceived why have you, cos you knew she was pregnant didn't you ..
R_____ What with the daughter
385___ Yeah
R_____ Mm, oh yes
385___ Why did you leave it twenty years without any contact for your own daughter ...
R_____ What you mean I should go out trying to contact my own daughter. Imagine the trouble that would cause. It was my daughter that contacted me, not me ...
385___ But for those previous twenty years you didn't care a thing about your daughter
R_____ I've got no proof she was. She was going around with at least four different people including the person who later was her husband. This is by her own mouth I'm not talking about rumour. I've got no proof and she, I was, I was told that my daughter was registered illegitimate.
It 's only finding out all this family history stuff, finding out and getting a copy of birth registration details that I found, well perjury. It was conspiracy with Kelvin
1184__ What do you, what effect do you think this has had on her all of these letters that you've been sending to her employer and friends
R_____ Well my argument is it could so easily have been resolved, all she had to do was divulge a few blood groups and agree for GPs to swap details.
385___ What happens if she doesn't want to do that
R_____ But why doesn't she, she wants to get rid of me surely, get rid of all this nonsense
1184__ That wasn't a question I said, what effect do you think that's, this, all this had had on her
R_____ I really don't know so
385___ Do you care
R_____ Care, I'm caring indirectly cos I know the effect it's had on my daughter while I was still in contact with her but, she just took her, took her mother's side and sent me a letter saying I was deluded and lying to her and that's the last contact I've had with her.
I don't know where she's living.
1184__ Are you still in contact with your daughter
R_____ No, she just totally broke off contact
385___ But Fian has made it quite clear he will ...
R_____ He hasn't written to me, oh he ...
385___ He's made it quite clear that ...
R_____ He phoned me up one time shouting and bawling down the phone
385___ He's made it quite clear that at no point will he undertake any test
R_____ Has he, well he's not said that to me or anything
385___ So that really should be the end of it
R_____ Not as far as I'm concerned
385___ You can't force him to take a test
R_____ I can't force him no
1184__ He's an adult now isn't he
R_____ Mm mm
1184__ And it would be an assault for anybody to force him to do, take a test and he's refusing to
R_____ But I would have thought everyone would want it cleared out of the air
385___ It's not something , it's not something the family need clearing cos they're quite happy that Kelvin is the father
R_____ He can't be
385___ Well you've only got, we've only got your word for that
R_____ Indirect but genetic evidence
385___ When did she move out from you then, when did you last have sex with her
R_____ Oh, I vaguely remember it might have been a few occasions after she was married but the odd occasions anyway in the late 70s I mean after both were born.
385___ You say you've had sex with her after the birth of both children
[If this interview had been recorded on video tape you would be able to see both bottom jaws drop in astonishment at this point]
R_____ Yeah, yeah, not very often but a few occasions, the late 70s, you know, but there's always other people that could have been the father as well, which I'm not going to name but ..
1184__ When Fian spoke to you on the telephone did he make it quite clear that he wasn't going to entertain the idea of having a blood test
R_____ He was, that was it as addled as his mother on these occasions at the same time of night as well, trying to think, he was shouting and swearing , couldn't really make, didn't really say anything, that's right, it was after I sent the letters to the neighbours, that's right, so immediately or within a day or two of that so that was, cos whenever I sent any letters it seemed to have some sort of effect, got things going, might of gone in the wrong direction I mean I've no way of predicting that but, but at least he, someone, that was the thing that wound him up. Someone I've never spoken to before, wouldn't recognise the voice at all, purporting to be Fian DAWSON. I've got no proof of that which is what I said on the phone, especially at one o'clock in the morning. Get woken up, that really wound him up, I assume it was him, it might have been a plant by anyone, I just don't trust this Stella CONSTANT woman at all, it could have been anyone
385___ What are you hoping to achieve by proving you're the biological father cos you haven't been a father to them
R_____ That I haven't lied to my daughter basically. Just one thing I'd lied to my daughter about and that was the, the night she was almost born. Stella came round, we'd separated months beforehand, she came round and we were having sex and Stella started haemorrhaging and we rushed up the hospital. Medically I don't know if, if the doctors suppressed the birth. It would have otherwise been due then or what anyway she, it was suppressed and patched up and she was, she was giving birth two weeks later. But I had sent a diary of events or whatever you'd like to call it, of our relationship , when we were living together, when we weren't living together and I had quite deliberately disguised that we were having sex, although on odd occassions, although we'd separated but I had mentioned this thing about she, did her mother ever tell her that she was born almost two weeks earlier, or ten days early or something like that. She was just pestering me and pestering me to get an explanation of the otherwise strange event of being born too early and eventually I had to explain that I'd misled her. I hadn't actually lied to her, I had misdirected her, implied that we were living together and we separated and there wasn't any ongoing odd occasions in between
385___ Was it important to your daughter then to know that she might have been born two weeks early
R_____ No, no the point is that's the only time I've lied to my daughter but what I've no idea what her mother's been telling her but she's firmly of the opinion that I'm deluded or lying or both or a thoroughly nasty person and ...
385___ Could you now leave them though just to be a family unit and get on with their lives
R_____ Get all this stuff out of the way. I'd have done it three years ago. I mean we've got incompatible blood groups
385___ Yes but they've already told you that they're not prepared to undergo tests so at some point you have to stop
R_____ Well it will just niggle away with them for the rest of their lives in that case but ..
1184__ What you'll niggle away with them for the rest of their lives
R_____ Not necessarily but it will niggle at their own consciences
385___ That may be the case but you, but you, have to stop harassing them when they've said they're not going to entertain a test, which is why you haven't had a single reply to any letter you ever sent
R_____ I don't know she. I mean no one's contacted me at all so I've no reason of knowing why they haven't got back to me ..
385___ Isn't it all an indication though that if people don't reply that they're not particularly interested
R_____ I'd soon reply to a letter I found offensive, anyway it had my name and address on the top, fully identified
385___ Why do you think they didn't reply
R_____ Because it is very informative information. They were probably getting a load of rubbish from Stella as usual, and they're believing me. But on the other hand they couldn't really get back to me cos it was implying that they're sister or whatever was being a habitual liar
1184__ I expect they didn't get back to you because the whole family knew ..
R_____ I don't know, all I know is ...
1184__ Knew of these letters
R_____ This was the first occasion [the round-robin in front of me ]
1184__ And chose to ignore them because they didn't want to be contacted ...
R_____ This is the first occasion anyone has communicated with me [round robin photocopy]
385___ But once you don't get a reply to a letter surely that's some indication the people don't want to talk to you
R_____ Well I'd say the opposite
1184__ Especially as you don't know any of these people
R_____ Well all the more reason for them to write back saying, a perfectly civil letter saying that, I received your letter of so and so ...
385___ Which after three years they have done
R_____ After three years exactly, three years, but not that many letters, I mean five or six letters over three years
1184__ Each
R_____ Well five on average I would say, four to some six to others something like that
1184__ What abut Kelvin, Fian and Leafe, how many letters have you sent to them
R_____ Well Leafe I mean we were communicating perfectly amicably until the mother threw a spanner in the works that. Sorry what was the question.
1184__ How many letters have you sent to others in the family, not Stella
R_____ I mean well to Leafe, thirty letters or something. We were just trying to make contact with one another there's nothing threatening in there, well nothing threatening in any of the letters
1184__ What about Fian
R_____ The same sort of number of letters as everyone else, five I suppose, something like that
1184__ And Kelvin DAWSON, her husband
R_____ Maybe three I should think, probably only three
1184__ And what about Stella herself
R_____ Two maybe, no more than three anyway but the last one of those was in March 1999, I don't actually have a copy here but there is a transcript here
1184__ Do you keep records of all letters you've sent
R_____ Oh yes, yeah
1184__ Do you have copies at home of all the letters that you've sent
R_____ Not all of them because they tend to be much the same and I just sort of recorded I sent one to so and so and it's just the same letter and I just sort of put in my records that I sent the same copy to so and so
1184__ And what about the Web-site you set up
R_____ That oh yeah, yes sorry what about it
1184__ What was the purpose of setting up the web-site
R_____ Put it in the public domain and get some feedback from people, cos I couldn't find how to deal with this sort of thing. I mean basically I can't afford to put this stuff in a civil action, prosecute them, god knows what that would cost
385___ What are you hoping to prosecute
R_____ Oh this disputed paternity
385___ Without their consent they won't give the blood so it can't go anywhere can it
R_____ No it had to go before a judge and he would have to decide the merits of the case as far as I know
385___ But he could decide the merits but he can't force people to take blood tests
R_____ Can't he
385___ No cos that constitutes an assault without people's consent
R_____ Well I think, I'll take your word for that, I mean I've not read up on it much, I, I assumed well what is the point of people going to paternity issues in courts if that's not the case. Are you sure about that?
385___ Well we certainly can't take blood from anybody here without their consent
R_____ No but I mean if you went to a judge and he saw the merits of a case then maybe he would
385___ How are you going to force someone do it though if they don't want to
R_____ By the courts. I mean if you cut some of their hair off that's technically assault but it's been deemed allowable by whatever act of parliament it's not assault in those circumstances
1184__ We don't want to dwell on that too much

Buzzer sounding on tape

1184__ What that sound there means is that
R_____ The end of the tape
1184__ The end of the tape. There's still other things we need to discuss with you so what I intend to do is conclude this tape and put a fresh set in. The time by the interview clock is 2051 hours and the interview is concluded

Continuation tape Duration of interview 41 minutes Time commenced 2055 Time concluded 2136

1084__ Okay the time by the interview clock is now 2055 hours the date is still Saturday the 9th of September 2000, we've just concluded tape number one and we're going onto tape number two an interview with Paul NUTTEING. Can you confirm Mr NUTTEING that the same people are present
R_____ That's correct
1084__ And that we've had a couple of minutes break so that you could visit the toilet
R_____ That's correct
1084__ And you're happy to continue with the interview
R_____ Yeah it's fine
1084__ And you understand that you're still under caution
R_____ Yes
1084__ And we will continue where we left off with the interview okay. Before we go any further I've got a couple of letters here which Stella CONSTANT has given me, this one in particular is to Mrs R , I don't intend to go through the content of all these letters
R_____ No, fair enough
1084__ In particular but I just want you to confirm with this letter is written the 26th of May 99 to Mrs R, can you confirm that that's your handwriting
R_____ Yeah it would be my letter yes. I don't actually remember it but yes I mean it's my letter
1084__ And that's your signature at the bottom of the letter
R_____ That's right, yes, yes
1084__ And I think that might be it's in biro, its another letter dated the 29th of March 2000 to Mr DAWSON again ...
R_____ Sorry which Mr DAWSON
1084__ Umm just says Mr DAWSON
R_____ Probably says on the envelope who it is to. Yeah that's him
1084__ Again which this signature at the bottom can you confirm that ...
R_____ Yes that signature's mine, yes
1084__ That's your handwriting and that you'd written that. I'm just flicking through that there's a number of letters
R_____ I like to see there's hundreds of them ...
1084__ So you're not disputing that that's your handwriting
R_____ Oh no, no
1084__ Okay I refer, I can, if I refer to Stella's statement it refers to the amount of letters, which she is referring to have sent ...
R_____ This is over three years bear in mind
1084__ And what's happened to them
R_____ Sorry what's happened to
1084__ The letters
R_____ I've no idea no one has come back to me saying so ...
1084__ No I'll explain that to you. She states that she was in, in a relationship and, with yourself in 199-1976 when she fell pregnant, she goes on to , go on to say that Naomi was born, however after she was, prior to her being born that you had separated, that you had an on off relationship, however at the time she was registered, registered the birth, she was living as a couple with her now husband Kelvin
R_____ I don't dispute that
1084__ Kelvin DAWSON and it was him who registered as Leafe's father on the birth certificate.
She said that her and Kelvin went on to have their son Fian and ...
R_____ SHE HAD A SON
1084__ They have since had ...
R_____ In between we were living, when he was conceived, when he was conceived ME and Stella were living together
1084__ Going from what she's saying on her statement ...
R_____ All right okay yeah but ..
1084__ Okay she then goes on to say she's had two further children with her husband and you know they now live in Salisbury. She says that sometime in 1996 she doesn't know the exact date, she had a telephone call from Leafe to say that she was upset and she wanted her help, because she had been in contact with yourself and that you started to bombard Leafe with letters, obsessive letters and this had upset Leafe and that you were implying to Leafe that you knew things about her and making general hurtful ...
R_____ They weren't implications they were highly precise detailed information
1084__ Comments that were upsetting Leafe and that's why she went to her mother with her concerns. Stella states that Leafe had showed her a pile of letters that you had sent her and that the letters were manipulative and insinuated there were dark secrets, possibly criminal secrets which related to Stella and the rest of her family. She states that you'd sent her approximately 100 letters most of which ...
R_____ 100 letters to who
1084__ To Leafe
R_____ Laugh
1084__ Most of which were destroyed however Leafe has kept a shoebox full at home, the letters did not contain any actual threats, however they were extremely distressing and that most of the contents were fabricated and twisted versions of the truth
R_____ No, I've never lied to my daughter at any time apart from the one specific occasion I said
1084__ She states that as a result of these letters Leafe had asked her to intervene and asked her to speak with you and she says that at that time that she came to * and she said she compassionately asked you to try and deal with your relationship with Leafe on amore appropriate level, can you confirm that meeting took place
R_____ I can confirm she came round to see me, the conversation half of it was about Social Services matters nothing to do with this at all. In fact, in fact talking about an ongoing investigation that was, she shouldn't have been talking about at all, she was totally off her trolley that day. In fact when I pointedly asked her who Fian's father was, biological father, she said it was someone completely different someone I don't know. News to me but
1084__ She said that she left this meeting on good terms with you
R_____ Well I didn't throw her out if that's what you mean
1084__ You were disputing it was on good terms then
R_____ I'm disputing that it was a conversation, she was -what's the psychology, the psychiatry, she was in an alternative personality. It's out of things, just irrational, you just can't have a conversation with her. She just comes back with a politician's answer [ anterotesis ] , if you ask her a very precise question she'll just come back saying Oh what you're implying I'm lying or something.
She won't keep to the subject, you just can't get anything out of her
1084__ She goes on to say that approximately 6 months after this visit that she and Leafe heard nothing and then all of a sudden that you started to bombard her with letters, saying that you sent letters to her husband Kelvin DAWSON, her son Fian DAWSON, her daughter Leafe DAWSON, her daughter-her mother Honoria CONSTANT, her mother-in-law Pauline DAWSON her sister and husband Mr and Mrs R, another sister and her husband Mr and Mrs E, her brother-in-law Andrew David -Andrew DAWSON, her neighbours Mr and Mrs C, other neighbours M. D. and her place of work Salisbury Social Services. I'll go back saying this letter, this statement was made in April of this year prior to the window ...
R_____ Not one to Mr STODDART at all
1084__ So you're saying you made no contact with Mr STODDART or her place of ...
R_____ Well no, this is my letter dated the 30th ...
1084__ Work whatsoever. I'm not disputing you wrote that one, what I'm saying is back in April she's saying that you made contact with her, with Salisbury Social Services. I'm not saying Mr STODDART I'm saying Social Services
R_____ No
1084__ You're saying that's a lie
R_____ It's nothing to do with me
1084__ She said the contents of the letters most of which she's seen were generally hurtful comments, lies and distortions about her and her family
R_____ I'd like to see some of these lies proved, she's very handy at using the term lying.
For someone who is a pathological liar. I mean what do you call perjury if it's not lying
1084__ Well she's written here also that ...
R_____ I'll tell you this one thing that got up my wick. She phoned me up one time, probably in the middle of the night, I don't know, saying things were getting, her daughter was getting upset about all this, that she didn't want me contacting my daughter anymore. At that point I sort of said yes to calm things down. That very same week my daughter wrote me a letter containing with it her mobile phone number precisely to make it easier to contact my daughter.
Her mother's just desperate to, I mean all this gagging order basically I mean, trying desperately to get rid of me, a thorn in her backside or something and my daughter wanted to give me her phone number precisely to make it easier to contact her, but her mother was trying to push me out
1084__ Stella goes, she goes on to say that other letters you refer to her suffering from MPD, Multiple Personality Disorder
R_____ Hm mm
1084__ Well how do you know that
R_____ Well I've spoken to a psychiatric nurse
1084__ Are you an expert in that field
R_____ I'm not no
385___ That's only what you've said to the nurse not what the nurse has seen of Stella
R_____ Oh not no not Stella at all no
385___ So that's in fact a lie
R_____ It's consistent isn't it, it's consistent with
1084__ It's not a fact is it, you're writing letters
R_____ I can't, I'm not er, I'm not medically qualified or anything
385___ But you said she's suffering from it and you don't know that she is. You've got no idea
R_____ I can only go by this strange behaviour
1084__ Yeah but that's just made up then isn't it
R_____ Sorry what's made up
1084__ The fact that she's got Multiple Personality Disorder
R_____ Well I hope it's that rather than schizophrenia
385___ No but you made it up, because you've got no evidence other than you've spoken to someone
R_____ I've got nothing in writing no no
385___ So you've made it up and you've written that in letters which is quite hurtful isn't it, if it's not true
R_____ If it's not true
1084__ So that's one thing that we've pointed out that's a lie isn't it that you've written
R_____ Sorry what's, what's a lie
385___ That she's suffering from it because you don't that
R_____ It's the only explanation I've come across in all this that fits
1084__ It's still actually, it's not a fact though is it
R_____ Well I'm not a psychiatrist so I've not
385___ No so you're not in a position to make that comment but you did
R_____ On, on the basis of evidence that I have ...
385___ Because a lot of people might find your behaviour completely irrational
R_____ I quite believe it. That woman drives everyone round the bend, certainly did twenty years ago so hasn't changed now. Give her the benefit of the doubt to start with but ...
385___ But that's your opinion isn't it. Which again isn't fact
R_____ But it's not necessarily lies
1084__ She says that you've accused her of trying to get someone to kill you
R_____ Sorry. Oh to my daughter yeah that's right yes. That's genuine
1084__ Can you tell me about that
R_____ I mean this is going back 20 years. I mean we're talking about, if you don't mind going back 20 years
1084__ No
R_____ No its not recently. It was when she left, that was her parting , parting threat that if I should consider trying to contact her daughter or her son then she's got these fairground workers who would come round and set on me apparently
1084__ Sit on you
R_____ Set on me
1084__ Set on you. She says that you talk about her being evil, corrupt and having illegal activities and being immoral
R_____ Could be. I mean I haven't got it in front of me but it's possible
1084__ It's possible that you could have written these things in a letter
R_____ Well I don't know about a letter but .
385___ What are her illegal activities then
R_____ I don't think I would have written in a letter but might have been in this public domain thing
385___ So what are her illegal activities
R_____ What then
385___ You, you've obviously at some point written
R_____ I'm trying to think what these illegal activities are
385___ Or you made that up as well
R_____ I'm just trying to think, what's it in contact with, context with illegal activities
1084__ She's saying that these are her, some of the hurtful, she's pointing out some of the hurtful things that you've written in some of the letters
R_____ No, there's reference to that sort of thing in this public domain document that's on the internet
385___ Okay so in that then, so what are these illegal activities that you've put in the public domain
R_____ I'm not sure they're illegal as such
385___ So why did you put illegal activities
R_____ Have I actually written illegal activity
1084__ I haven't got any letters(incoherent)I've just got her statement without reading through them which would take the rest of the night
R_____ I'd certainly say immoral activities and activities that wouldn't be consistent with being a social worker I would have thought
1084__ Can I just clarify with you, because you're talking about the Web-site, basically that being in the public domain as being separate to the letters
R_____ Yes yes some
1084__ And I understand that
R_____ I mean there's ...
1084__ I understand that you've sent little booklets with this information from the web site in paper form
R_____ Yeah
1084__ To a lot of the people from Stella's family
R_____ With all names disguised and all that sort of thing
1084__ Is that correct
R_____ With all the names disguised, yes
1084__ Did you send that booklet to anybody else like to her boss
R_____ Maybe I could have done, yes. Yes it's quite possible
1084__ Okay and when did you send that
R_____ Er probably with this, I can't be sure on that but you've got it definitely in writing somewhere have you
1084__ I haven't spoken to her boss at the moment but I can confirm that when what
R_____ Yeah it's quite possible it's just, you know, there's so many odd people and bits of paper it gets a bit confusing
1084__ So you may have sent that too
R_____ Yeah may well have done yeah
1084__ Mr STODDART, but you can't recall when it was
R_____ Oh it was probably with the letter as contents
1084__ Could you have sent it before then
R_____ I doubt it cos I didn't even know ...
385___ If you had a grievance with Stella why haven't you gone through the proper channels to sort the grievance out
R_____ As far as I know it costs in excess of 10, 000 probably £20, 000 these days
385___ As far as I know
R_____ As far as I know
385___ Have you considered Citizens Advice where you get a free letter
R_____ Sorry free letter
385___ Solicitors letter to send her
R_____ She'd just tear it up in front of her.
385___ So you instead you ...
R_____ I didn't consider it no I can't
385___ You harass all her friends to try and get some response
R_____ No I inform people as best as I could give, basically plead my case with anyone who will listen to it that's why
385___ Most of it is your opinion isn't it
R_____ No most of it is very precise genetic information
385___ Things like she's suffering from Multiple Personality Disorder is your opinion because she's not been assessed
R_____ Oh that was later on in the ...
385___ That is your opinion
1084__ It's also your opinion that your Fian's father
R_____ Until proven otherwise yes
1084__ So they're all opinions it's not a fact is it
R_____ All someone has to do is come back to me saying whether he's got this wonkey wrist business or short arms or what my daughter's got which is Cubitus Valgus which is a cocked-over arm at the elbow. It's all part of the same thing called Dyschondrosteosis Dyschondrosteosis
385___ You're not the only family in the world suffering from that are you
R_____ It's one in five hundred thousand so it's the same level as DNA or that area of probability.
1084__ I don't want to go down that route again because we've, I think we've exhausted that route
R_____ But there's plenty of forensically admissible stuff about
1084__ Stella goes on to say that you began to send letters in 98 this is approximately maybe one or two years after the letters started only when they started in 96 so some time
R_____ I doubt it was 96, 97 might have been
1084__ Sometime into the letters you began sending letters which imply that Fian was your biological child which she knows is not true and you started bombarding her
R_____ Sorry who knows this not to be true
1084__ Stella knows this is not true
R_____ She was living with me, we were having sex every night for the three months that cover the time gap that Fian was conceived . Now I know she was having sex with other people but apart from anything else, balance of probability, it would be that I would be the father
1084__ She said that you bombarded her and her family of letters about this and sent birth certificates, medical information of blood grouping etc
R_____ That's right yes
1084__ In relation to those claims
R_____ They're very precise stuff yes
1084__ And that you've also written directly to Fian making no secret that you believe that you're his father
R_____ That's right yes
1084__ She says that in total you sent her and her family, literally hundreds of unwanted, unanswered, letters over a period of approximately four years
R_____ 50, 50 I wouldn't dispute over three years
1084__ Most of the letters have been destroyed however I do have a number of letters which I produce which are here and also with , some of them with the envelopes. It's also saying you also set up the web site which we've just discussed with your story
R_____ Which also has got the dyschondrosteosis stuff which is very very helpful to five people around the world [ about 30 now in June 2001]
1084__ Which refers to her and discusses immoral and evil
R_____ It doesn't, it refers to someone called Sheila or something or other
385___ Who is Sheila
R_____ Just a person in my write-up
385___ But your write-up is about Stella isn't it
R_____ Write-ups about all sorts of things
385___ But you said earlier that you changed the names to ...
R_____ Changed locations, I changed a lot of details you know
385___ But it ...
R_____ Because it's in the public domain, I didn't want to have to read up about libel rules and that sort of thing
1084__ In your story the person that you're referring to as Sheila is Stella
R_____ Just someone called Sheila
1084__ Do you know someone called Sheila then
R_____ No it's a write-up
1084__ So you're saying what's on the web site is fictitious
R_____ Yeah a lot of it is
1084__ And it doesn't make it, it doesn't refer to Stella at all
R_____ No no where in it
385___ Do any of the stories relate to Stella that involve Sheila
R_____ Oh bits of them
385___ And earlier you said you changed the names because you didn't want to be sued for libel. If you just made it up you wouldn't need to change a name would you
R_____ Well make, change the name, make up names anyway
385___ Cos doesn't Stella receive some correspondence to Sheila, have you sent anything to her about Sheila
R_____ Not as far as I know. Unless I have got an alternative personality and started doing that
1084__ She goes on to say that she'd now like the police to intervene and she feels harassed and distressed as a recipient of the unwanted and the unanswered letters and she fears by your comments that you made in a letter dated 29th of March of this year. Where you say, "I'll move onto the next irrevocable stage after April 30th, 2000 unless anyone comes up with any forensically admissible proof that Kelvin and Fian are related". What did you mean by that comment
R_____ Well I started to go in the public domain I was trying to keep all this within the family sort of thing
1084__ So what did you mean by move onto the next irrevocable stage
R_____ Well I assumed, it's the first time that I've ever put anything like this on the Internet. That it might create a life of its own sort of thing and be unstoppable, but I don't think it's the case though. It's just ignored.
1084__ She saw that as being a threat to her, is that what it was intending to be
R_____ No I mean I never made any threats at all to her
385___ It's a veiled threat there isn't it
R_____ No it's not a threat I don't make threats. Stella is the one that makes threats and violence as well
1084__ She goes on to say that the stress that you've caused not only affects her but the whole family, in particular her daughter Leafe who's your daughter too
R_____ I'm afraid so, that's the way it's ended up
1084__ But if you're causing this
R_____ I'M NOT causing it, it's that, THAT woman just lying about everything to everyone, it's just disgusting ...
385___ You could be termed as what's called a nuisance really though couldn't you
R_____ Yes, that's why she wants this whole business of a gagging order, to get rid of me
385___ Because you're a nuisance
R_____ A thorn in her leg, right
385___ You harass her
R_____ No I've not, I've not, I've not harassed her . I've informed a number of her family, relatives, very precise information, that's not harassment in my terms
1084__ If someone took that course of action towards myself or anybody I knew I would call it harassment
R_____ Have you read the relevant act
385___ Yes
1084__ Yes
R_____ Section 2
385___ Section 1, subsection 2
R_____ The Man on the Clapham Omnibus Test, what constitutes harassment
1084__ It's not actually specified in the act what is and what is not harassment
R_____ It does say what constitutes harassment if someone independent knows what's going on.
1084__ It's not specified
R_____ The test, the test for harassment is someone independent watching what's going on, is in receipt of exactly the same information whether they would find the conduct, if they would personally feel harassed. I put this to all sorts of people, there's no threats in my information
385___ Doesn't have to be a threat to be harassment does it
R_____ No the section 2 is it , the test for
385___ The person whose conduct is questionable ought to know that it amounts to harassment with another, if a reasonable person possessing the same information would think the course of conduct would amount to harassment of the other. Well I like as a reasonable person that you've harassed Stella and her family
R_____ I've shown some people these letters and they've been enthralled about it not anyone anyone if receiving these letters would be harassed.
1084__ Ultimately Mr NUTTEING she's made a complaint of harassment against you, she feels harassed and distressed by your course of conduct towards, otherwise she wouldn't of come ...
R_____ Her, her family's actions towards her not mine
1084__ By your course of conduct the letters now been sent to her family but they've come back to her, which ultimately causes her more distress by the nature of where you've sent them to. She's saying that course of conduct has caused her distress, hence she's come to us , if it hadn't caused her distress she wouldn't have come to the police and asked for this to be made in complaint to you, because she hasn't done so for several years of having receiving these letters has she
R_____ That's as far as I know yes
1084__ So she's feeling distressed then
R_____ She she wants a gagging order that's what it is
1084__ That's not what she's asking at all
385___ What do you mean by gagging order
R_____ Well she wants me to be put in a position where I'm not allowed to inform anyone about anything
385___ She wants to be left in peace
R_____ Well that's EASY, just, just divulge the blood groups openly, exchange letters between GPs, that is all that's required
1084__ But that's not going to happen is it
R_____ No it's a ridiculous stalemate thing
1084__ She's saying
R_____ All this business. Wasted money on window
1084__ That your course of conduct has caused her distress and you're saying ...
R_____ No one came back to me saying anything, it's only the last, what is it ...
1084__ That's because they have chosen to ignore your letters and filed them in the bin, because they don't want to be hearing from you and they certainly don't want to be receiving hurtful comments about somebody they care about
R_____ I certainly never got any comments of any shape or form back that they found them intrusive, offensive, anything nothing at all
1084__ That's because most of the letters were destroyed
385___ But you didn't get any positive feedback either did you, you just buried your head in the sand
R_____ I-I haven't buried my head in the sand
385___ And continued to send them . You didn't get feedback positive or negative
R_____ I mean I've physically received this round robin and I can reasonably infer from that that they didn't want these letters but up to that point I've heard nothing at all
385___ Yeah but you've got nothing to say they didn't want them, but you've got nothing to say they did want them. So you just buried your head in the sand and continued to send them
1084__ It's not like you know these people is it
R_____ You're giving the impression that I was bombarding every post or something like that, certainly was just over three years, I don't know why she says four years, maybe 97, 98, 99 yeah I would have said three years rather than four
1084__ Ultimately Mr NUTTEING it's going to be up to the court to decide what is and what isn't harassment and if she feels that she's been distressed and harassed by your actions then it's going to be up to the court not one person you've spoken to or even our opinion that counts. It's going to be up to the court to decide whether they deem your course of conduct towards her and her family and friends and employer as harassment
R_____ Well it wasn't intended as harassment. It was putting my case to people who could have a bearing
1084__ Well I put it to you that it wasn't reasonable for you to be writing to her neighbours, her employer
R_____ The neighbours were a bit different. I was basically trying to get something about where my daughter had gone or anything
1084__ You're saying that, that the parts of your neighbours and employer was unreasonable
R_____ Sorry the parts
1084__ The letters that you sent to her neighbours were an unreasonable part of your trying to spread your
R_____ No a reasonable part
1084__ You're saying it's reasonable
R_____ Yes I mean no one there was going to tell me anything. For all I knew my daughter had emigrated. I had had absolutely no contact whatsoever, but someone I helped out well 800 quid, 500 quid one time and 300 quid another time for paying her rent on her house and that sort of thing in Leicester and about two weeks after that I get this letter from her saying I'm lying and deluded and doesn't want anything more to do with me
1084__ I'm just amazed that you think your course of conduct was reasonable
R_____ It is in those circumstances. Would you write to a close relative of yours informing that they were lying and deluded
1084__ That's
R_____ I think that's highly justified
385___ I think there's, I think there's things in your letters that you can't prove are true
R_____ Yeah but not lies necessarily are they
385___ But they're not the truth, you're making a lot of supposition about Stella without medical experts actually physically examining her you don't know. Because I could say the same about you
R_____ Those comments are referring to someone in a write-up it's not directly referring to her
385___ But it was because you sent those letters ...
R_____ Where, where in all those letters does it say that I've implied that Stella CONSTANT has got psychiatric problems.
385___ You my not have said Stella CONSTANT but in your thing on the internet
R_____ That, that's a different matter altogether
385___ Well, you've actually said, that copy those, (incoherent) to Stella and other people or to her family so you must have meant it to mean Stella , or why send it to their families
R_____ There's a lot of it in there relevant, but a lot disguised and umm
385___ But you've already said that you believe that's the case that she is suffering from that disorder
R_____ I wouldn't be at all surprised I tell you
385___ It's not the truth is it, because she's not been examined for
R_____ I, I don't know
385___ Pure speculation on your behalf
R_____ I should hope someone has. No, just as an ordinary concerned member of the public I mean this-when she came round to me-that unannounced visit. She spent well over half an hour going into great detail about this case she was investigating in Winterslow, involving sexual molestation and all sorts of nasty goings-on. This was, as far as I knew, actually current investigation, and there was me nothing to do with social work. Prattling on about this, I've forgot what I've said, so why did I bring that up
1084__ Can we go back to this web-site that you set up. You agreed that you sent copies to some of Stella's family and friends, is that correct
R_____ A printed version
1084__ If that's nothing to do with Stella why would you send that to them
R_____ Because it's got information relevant about all sorts of stuff, I don't put in letters. I mean there's precise details of blood groupings, its very difficult to get hold of that complete listing of what's allowable and what's not allowed ..
1084__ If you're saying it's nothing to do with Stella why send it to these people that are relations to Stella
R_____ Because there is a lot of information that is relevant, but until I have a dialogue with them I can't say what applies to her and what doesn't apply to her.
1084__ You're not answering the question now, I'm saying why have you sent it to Stella's relatives if you're saying it's nothing to do with Stella
385___ And you're saying the story's not based around Stella
R_____ Oh there's links in there but not word for word
385___ The people who are reading those things straight away that Sheila is Stella because why send it to them otherwise
R_____ Because it's a large printed tract and I don't mind writing long letters but 60K of writing is ...
1084__ You're trying to make us believe that you were writing to Kelvin's family to try and ascertain blood test-blood groupings and things like that as a genuine reason to find out what Fian's blood group is etc, which I can, I can understand why ... There's a logic for that.
R_____ I expected them to come back if I was totally on the wrong track. If Kelvin's brother was blood group "A" then I expected them to come directly back to me saying "You're talking a loud of rubbish" ...
1084__ I don't disagree with that, I don't disagree that I understand the logic for that one.
What I'm saying is if you're saying that this document has got nothing to do with Stella why are you sending it to these people. That just doesn't make sense, that is just clear harassment by sending this document ...
R_____ No it's, it's not even set in Salisbury, all the names are different everything ...
385___ If it's all different why send to the people that you've been sending letters to
R_____ Because I've got the general information in there, the dyschondrosteosis and stuff. It's genuine information
385___ And all you've done is change the name and in fact most of it relates to Stella
R_____ There's all sorts of differences in there, to disguise who was writing it as well
385___ So you didn't get sued
R_____ Er?
385___ So that you didn't get sued by Stella
R_____ Possibly, I haven't looked into that and can't comment anything about that
1084__ Why else would you change the names
R_____ Oh it's a ripping good yarn if you like, ideal for the internet, it's full of conspiracy theory
385___ You've based it on a true story in your opinion haven't you
R_____ There's elements of it in there that are true yes
1084__ What did you hope to achieve by sending that document to her family and friends
R_____ It's a summary of, all sorts of stuff
1084__ What did you hope to achieve
R_____ Well on the internet ****. Nothings coming back, information of any sort, I could under-, I could understand people complaining about information overload or something-just too much
1084__ But you weren't sending people e-mails were you. You were sending people, a, you were copying a document which you put on * and sending it in the post to them. What were you intending to achieve if it wasn't intending to cause harassment, what was the intention
R_____ It's all about information . It's putting my case, that is just part of it. It's not particularly useful because it's all disguised. The far more useful bit is-I don't think I've got a copy here-but my actual [paternity] treatise, the first letter I sent to Fian, with all the genetic information. There was about 12 points, but 9 of them probably would be forensically admissible probably
1084__ I mean now you've heard it from us that Fian won't entertain the idea of consenting to a blood test so ...
R_____ WHY, WHY NOT
1084__ The matter of this being resolved
R_____ I mean the Family Law Reform Act where a mother's refusal to ...
385___ He (incoherent) the parentage
R_____ ... go over blood groups can be deemed I don't know what the term is
385___ If he's quite happy with accepting that Kelvin's his father. that doesn't necessarily have to be biological does it because he's brought him up from birth
R_____ Yeah I think, it's not like he's been officially adopted
385___ Why can't you leave him to get on with his life
R_____ Until I, I know definitely for sure
385___ Because once he knows even if you are his father, he's not gonna want to speak to you anyway
R_____ Not now, because the mother's mangled things up so much. Even my daughter's not gonna have any contact with me now
1084__ The family are in no doubt that KELVIN is the biological father of Fian ...
R_____ Any ...
1084__ Which you're disputing. Now that's not gonna change as a result of our conversation here today, we need to be sure that your course of conduct is gonna end, because they, we're telling you that Stella is feeling harassed and distressed by you're course ...
R_____ I can say. I won't be sending any letters to these four named individuals here. I've got no animosity to them, it's just it's the first communication I've had.
385___ Because she doesn't want anymore sent to her work either
R_____ Well I can't, I've not had a letter from ...
385___ What we're saying to you though is that she believes that, that course of conduct by sending it to her work is harassment. You've been informed of it now and if there's another letter you will be brought back in here
R_____ I can understand that
385___ Now we've got to make it clear to you now. Because you know that all the letters that you sent out were unwarranted and people don't want them
R_____ I dispute whether it comes under the harassment act but I can see your point
385___ What I'm saying is you must not send anymore to work
R_____ But my point was I was warned in May or June whenever it was not to send any letters to someone who transpires to be the complainant and victim Stella CONSTANT which I haven't done
385___ No but you've tried to be clever and go around that and sending to neighbours because you know damn well ...
R_____ That, That was a lot earlier, that was
385___ But you know damn well by sending it to her family that they're gonna bring it up with Stella so other than delivering directly you've sent them to Stella
R_____ I can't predict things like that
385___ You know, you've done that so Stella can come round and talk to you about the bloke and sort that out, so you know the family are gonna talk to Stella about it
R_____ This has to be in writing. I mean it's pointless talking to her or conversation on the phone, is absolutely pointless. I still haven't had anything in writing
1084__ I've made reference to Stella's statement which has listed the people that you've sent letters to and she's explained that all the recipients of those letters do not want those letters from you
R_____ I've now heard this.
1084__ And they certainly do not want any of those letters in the future
R_____ I've now heard it, and I've heard precise names
1084__ And she's, she's listed not only her employer, the people that you have letters from, she's also listed under that, LEAFE, FIAN, her husband KELVIN and other people
R_____ So my next move is Strasbourg then
1084__ That's you're choice if that's what you want to do
R_____ That's HER choice. I mean it could have been settled three years ago, but, so now I've got to go to Strasbourg, because you're telling me I'm not allowed to communicate with my children
1084__ We're saying that the letters
R_____ That's what you're saying
1084__ The letters that have been sent are unwanted and they do not want to have this harassing communication from you
385___ I think the best way for you do it, is to go through a solicitor if you want access.
R_____ I can't afford a solicitor at all
385___ You go through the proper way but at the moment Stella's doing more ...
R_____ If I could have afforded it that's what I should have done 20 years ago
385___ Yeah
R_____ Couldn't afford it then, can't afford it now
385___ I think we've resolved the interview today
R_____ It's ridiculous
1084__ Okay is there anything else you wish to add
R_____ Yeah I did, I did write down a few points, just in case they didn't turn up. Yeah, I said I was incorrectly warned by WPC VIVIENE
385___ I don't think you were incorrectly warned
R_____ Yeah, but I was warned not to send letters to Stella CONSTANT, I hadn't
385___ Yeah which can be directly or indirectly
1084__ They can't possibly
R_____ Letters, letters to Stella CONSTANT, not ...
1084__ (incoherent) that what she said because you said you didn't know who it was
R_____ I'll go through precisely what it was. I happened to be going home *
385___ You actually said that she didn't give you a name so you
R_____ It wasn't just that I went home , dropping off stuff at home because ****, at the same time there's two uniformed policemen outside talking to a neighbour about a car that had been dumped outside for weeks. So I assumed it was about that. WPC VIVIAN came up to me and said "Hello Mr NUTTEING I want to talk to you, any idea why I want to talk to you?". "oh, well if you know my name then it's probably something to do with a woman in Salisbury". She said "yes" and said "We've had a complaint about you sending letters to this woman" she didn't say a name "and I'm here to warn you that under" well she didn't say the section "under the 1997 Protection from Harassment Act if you do it again you're likely to be arrested" but she just made reference to this one unnamed person
385___ Okay what's your next point
R_____ Yes I mean if you brought up about that recorded delivery letter. That comes under Section 1, subsection 3c as being reasonable in the circumstances to get notice to her before the end of August after which her costs in the civil action would go up all the time. [The letter I was arrested for sending] PAUSE. And in a general sense a lot of my activities are covered by section 1, subsection 3a as a means for detecting a crime that is perjury and conspiracy to commit perjury. [and defamement by Stella Constant of myself to my daughter]
385___ But that's you're opinion isn't it
R______Yeap

Form 365 served Interview concluded

------
The following is the first 5 minutes 40 seconds missing from the first tape transcribed by myself.

1084__ Have you ever been interviewed on tape before.
R_____ No
1084__ What happens is I put 2 tapes in that run at the same time they're not recording one after the other. They both record at the same time. One of those will be completely sealed up and if the case goes to court that is called the master copy and that can be unsealed for proof of the interview. The second tape is given, its one I can make use of, it's called a working copy.
R_____ I don't get a copy so can I use my own recorder.
1084__ Hang on a sec. You can't use your own recorder but you can apply for a copy.
R_____ A transcribed copy or a copy of the tape
1084__ A copy of the tape. I will give you a form at the end of the interview. I've already written it here. This is the tape number. If you take this along to a solicitor they can arrange for you to have a copy of the interview. If it goes to any more tapes I'll record their numbers too. Alternatively you don't have to go to a solicitor you can write yourself and ask for a copy.
R_____ Is there a case number I can refer to. I've had trouble with this before.
385___ There is a unique number.
R_____ ok, right, ok
1084__ With these details you can get a copy of the tape if you so wish, ok. Initially I have to go through a number of instructions and explanations. I have to go through with you. I'll go through that then I will go through the body of what we need to talk to you about OK
R_____ Yes
1084__ This interview is being tape recorded. It may be used in evidence if your case is brought to court. At the conclusion of the interview I will give you a note of explanation of what will happen to the tapes and your entitlement to the tapes. I am WPC 1084 Nicki GRIFFIN currently stationed at Salisbury. This interview is being conducted in an interview room at Salisbury police station. The date is Saturday 9th of September 2000 and the time by the interview clock is 20. 11 hours. What is your full name
R_____ Paul NUTTEING
1084__ And your date of birth
R_____ ----
1084__ Also present are
385___ DC Sean MEMORY, Salisbury CID
[Probably Sean James MEMORY, 10 Manor Farm Rd, Salisbury, born March 1969, Bromley ]
here to assist my colleague with the interview
1084__ Can you confirm there is no one else present
R_____ Oh yes that's correct
1084__ I must remind you that you have the right to free and independent legal advice.
You can speak to a solicitor in private at any time of the day or night and this legal advice is free. You can speak to a solicitor personally. If you don't want to speak to him personally you can speak to him by telephone. Do you want to speak to a solicitor before the interview continues.
R_____ No
1084__ Would you like to tell me why you don't want free legal advice, you're not obliged to give any reply.
R_____ Nothing major has turned up as yet that I can see warrants a solicitor, nothing unforeseen that is.
1084__ I understand that previously you asked for legal advice but changed your mind.
You'vee spoken to Inspector DIBBLE and told him you no longer want legal advice because you've spoken to him on the telephone.
R_____ At this moment
1084__ And you want to proceed with the interview and Inspector DIBBLE has given authority for the interview to go ahead. Can you confirm that is correct
R_____ That is correct
1084__ Is that still the case R That's still the case yes
1084__ I'm now going to caution you again as I did after you were interviewed. You do not have to say anything but it may harm your defence if you don't mention in questioning something that you later rely on in court. Anything you do say may be given in evidence. Do you understand what that caution means.
R_____ Yes
1084__ What's your understanding of what that means.
R_____ I understand it but I don't really understand why but I can understand remaining silent.
1084__ It's a bit more than that. I'll go through and explain it. It's very important that you have a complete understanding of what that caution means. The first part says you don't have to say anything which means you don't have to answer any of the questions that I put to you. The middle section says that it may harm your defence if you do not mention when questioned something that you later rely on in court. What that means is that if you say nothing now and the case goes to court and you come up with some explanation as to why you've been brought here then that can be used as evidence and the court can draw its own conclusion as to why you failed to say anything here. Also if you say something here this evening and if the case goes to court you then give a different answer or a different reason then again that can be used in evidence and the court can come to its own conclusion as to why you've changed your answer ok. And anything you do say can be given in evidence. You have an understanding of what the caution means now.
R_____ Yes
[ In all the 1 1/2 hours of this interview , in my terms, I only made one mistake - one word I should not have used. There were apparently 2 more occasions but these turned out to be transcription errors discovered listening to the actual copy of the audio tape. These errors have been corrected from the original transcript as supplied by the CPS. It was probably more a case of the transcribing typist hearing what she wanted to hear rather than deliberate falsification. Nevertheless all such transcripts should not be taken on trust and should be compared with the recording. Not something a solicitor is necessarily going to do so anyone else in similar circumstances - make your own copy of these tapes. ]
