The article does not appear to be on the newspaper's website, but never fear."We worked very hard to win the victims' confidence," [Lenny] Harper says of the Haut de la Garenne inquiry. "I think now they will feel that there is nothing that they can do.
"Jersey is claiming that I left with loads of documents, unused material that could be needed in court. I think they're saying that so that cases can be thrown out. I have offered to go to any court in the UK and answer questions about alleged unused material."
Harper ended his affidavit to the High Court by saying: "With such an absence of controls, such an absence of accountability, the ordinary, decent citizens of Jersey are helpless. Intentionally or not, the system has allowed corruption to flourish to such an extent that those seeking to combat it are the ones open to scorn."
Stuart Syvret has reproduced it in full on his blog - and filled in the names the Sunday Times left out.
I think you've unwittingly linked to the wrong post on Stuart's blog. That link is to a Mail on Sunday article (also worth a read) from April.
ReplyDeleteThe correct entry in Stuart's blog is at http://stuartsyvret.blogspot.com/2009/05/no-child-abuse-in-jersey.html and the original article can also be found on the Sunday Times' website.
Thank you. I have added the correct link.
