And yet again, more screw-ups by the BCPS
Dear Mr. Eby:
On 2021-11-10 I received an external hard drive from the BCPS, containing the disclosure material in the matter for which I was being detained and prosecuted. However, that disclosure material also contained evidence and disclosure material from another person's case - a completely unrelated person and completely unrelated case.
I deliberately said nothing to the Crown (Chris Johnson) about it because I wanted to wait until the lead detective, Kyle Dent (who was also the lead detective on that other case), was on the witness stand, then confront him with it. That way Dent and Johnson could not simply remove the other person's material then lie and say they have no idea about any disclosure mix-up. My plan worked beautifully and while I was cross examining Dent I trapped him into having to admit that the VPD and the BCPS had erroneously given me another person's disclosure, including the name and contact information of the complainant (Stephanie Clogg); and in the process, I made Dent, the VPD, Johnson, and the BCPS look like a bunch of inept fools again.
I then published on the "R. v. Fox website" (not the "Desiree Capuano website" which I am prohibited by my probation order from having any involvement with until the probation order expires) a blog article about the VPD and the Crown giving me someone else’s disclosure material, and about how I had set the trap for Dent/Johnson, and about how they walked right into it. And of course, the article contained the actual erroneous disclosure material - including the name and address of Miss Clogg (sorry, it's not my duty to protect the identity and personal information of the Crown's witnesses/complainants in other, completely unrelated matters - that's the Crown's duty and they clearly screwed up on this one).
Then, in early August, a gentleman by the name Yakup Cetin was transferred to my housing unit here at NFPC. In late September, he asked me to review a legal letter he had prepared. In that letter he referred to his "girlfriend" Stephanie Clogg. I then realized the disclosure material the Crown had erroneously given me was from HIS case. I informed him. I showed him a copy of the material the Crown had given me (yes, even AFTER realizing and acknowledging they had given me someone else's material and that that was a huge screw-up on their part, they actually gave me that same disclosure material AGAIN!). I then advised Mr. Cetin on how best to exploit the situation to make it most beneficial for him.
Consider: If the BCPS had decided to NOT proceed with the clearly frivolous and vexatious, current charges against me, or if they had decided to NOT lie and cheat at my bail hearing to ensure me continued detention then I would never have come into contact with Mr. Cetin and he would never have discovered the Crown had given his disclosure material to a third-party with a well known history of publishing everything that might contribute to bringing the justice system into disrepute. Then again, if they hadn't prosecuted me on the previous charge then they would have never given me Cetin's disclosure.
Apparently, the Crown and the police were so embarrassed about their screw-up that they didn't even tell Miss Clogg that her personal information and address had been inadvertently provided, by them, to another scary, dangerous criminal; and that that other scary, dangerous criminal then published her information on the internet. Nor did they bother to tell Mr. Cetin that his disclosure material had been given to another person and subsequently published on the internet.
Tell me, Mr. Eby, since the BCPS (and in this case, Chris Johnson specifically) is supposed to "vet" the disclosure material before releasing it to me, how is it possible that they failed to notice two pages and 14 photographs that were clearly labeled with a different case number? How can you (and the rest of the BC government) expect me to NOT publish sarcastic, mocking articles about the BC justice system and certain, specific justice system participants, when they just keep giving me so much great source material?
