🧨 When Probation Becomes Punishment: My Referral to the Parliamentary Ombudsman
The Sarah Sackman MP Submission That Could Finally Bring Accountability
They were supposed to supervise my reintegration.
Instead, they tried to destroy what was left of my life.
On 1 June 2025, with the support of Sarah Sackman MP, Member of Parliament for Finchley and Golders Green, I submitted a formal referral to the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman (PHSO).
This complaint exposes a shocking web of probation misconduct, emotional abuse, evidence suppression, and unlawful housing obstruction — all backed by documentation and years of suffering.
🔍 The Names Behind the Institutional Abuse
These are not faceless systems anymore. These are individuals named in my formal complaint — and now under referral to the Ombudsman:
Probation Officer 1
➤ Accused of emotional abuse, housing referral obstruction, and threats of recall in retaliation for challenging false reports.Probation Officer 2 – Senior Probation Officer / HOMA (HMP Littlehey)
➤ Alleged to have participated in collusion and cover-up of internal misconduct complaints.Probation Officer 3 – Probation Officer Manager (POM, HMP Littlehey)
➤ Implicated in systemic cover-ups, falsified reports, and undermining access to housing.Probation Officer 4 – Probation Officer Manager (POM)
➤ Accused of falsifying records and contributing to the perversion of justice.Probation Officer 5 – POM, Author of OASys Report
➤ Allegedly responsible for misleading risk assessments that distorted my eligibility for support.Probation Officer 6 – Senior Probation Officer / HOMA
➤ Named for evidence suppression and failure to escalate safeguarding concerns.Probation Officer 7 – Probation Officer Manager
➤ Ignored critical evidence submitted as part of my formal complaints.Probation Officer 8 – Probation Officer Manager
➤ Accused of institutional non-responsiveness and blocking resolution.Probation Officer 9 – Offender Management Unit (OMU)
➤ The only officer to partially acknowledge fault and issue a limited apology — still, no corrective action followed.
🧱 What They Did
The complaint is not just about names. It’s about what they did — and what they failed to do:
🧾 Falsified risk reports that misrepresented my character and denied my appeals.
🧨 Suppressed and erased complaints made via official COMP1/COMP1A forms while in custody.
🏠 Blocked housing support I was legally eligible for, causing instability and trauma.
📪 Intercepted legal mail, denying me access to Rule 39 protections and ECHR rights.
🧒 Undermined my parental rights through misinformation to social services.
🧊 Withheld rehabilitation support, focusing instead on punitive surveillance.
🗣️ Why This Referral Matters
This complaint — now on file as PHSO Ref: CF-0012857 — is not just about personal redress. It’s a direct challenge to a broken oversight system.
I’ve tried everything:
Submitted internal complaints
Filed with the Probation Ombudsman
Contacted oversight bodies like JCIO and JACO
Sent Royal Mail–tracked submissions with annexes
Filed an application with the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR)
And still, no investigation was launched — until now.
With the backing of Sarah Sackman MP, I’ve triggered an official PHSO review into misconduct by named probation officers and their complicit institutions.
🎯 What I’m Demanding
✅ A formal apology from HM Prison & Probation Service and oversight bodies
🔍 A full investigation into erasure of complaints, falsified reports, and unlawful housing interference
📃 A recommendation for systemic reform of complaint handling and safeguarding
💷 A financial remedy to reflect years of damage and institutional harm
🧨 We Cannot Let This Happen Again
This case is no longer just about me. It’s about every person silenced by false reports, trapped by retaliation, or broken by bureaucracy.
Thanks to Sarah Sackman MP, the case is now before the Ombudsman.
Thanks to you — the supporters — the silence is over.
This is how we reclaim truth.
