No amount of prayers by people who have harmed me will either change their harm to me nor change me.
I am sure other survivors know how church idiots try to manipulate us through prayer.
What the Church have done does not go away through their cover-ups and denials.
Graham Tilby 'telling them off behind closed doors' is not an acceptable response to their wrongdoing, anyone involved in harm to victims and the vulnerable should be removed, or the church isn't safeguarding, if Tilby doesn't remove them, and even, in Bob Key's case, allows them to continue in positions where they can harm the vulnerable, there is no safeguarding.
The Church are taking too long to comprehend all this.
The fractured story of a survivor of abuse and cover up in the Diocese of Winchester, by a survivor who is too traumatized and ashamed to share her story, but has been forced to fight to be heard.

Safeguarding in the Church of England
29/05/2017 CC Tilby, Butler, SCIE, IICSA, Murray,
Venables
Dear Graham
Tilby,
I am writing
again regarding my extreme concern over the Church of England's very poor,
indeed non-existent, safeguarding, and the harm to me which you seem unable to
address. I do not feel that I have a future or will survive or want to survive
what I have experienced and I am suffering, but I would like to see things
change before I die. I would also like, and have asked, for the Church of
England to pay for my attendance at Dignitas to make my suffering shorter as I
have been publicly and utterly destroyed by the Church's terrible safeguarding
stunt gone wrong, the Jersey and Winchester whitewash.
You allowed
me to be publicly destroyed, and incredibly tried to tell me that this was none
of your business and you had no control over it. Allowing a vulnerable adult to
be driven to suicide by public discrediting and smears is your business, it is
a safeguarding issue, and if you didn't understand that, then you should have
realised this and resigned, not gone on badgering me for a meeting as you do
with vulnerable people - this is a grave concern of mine, instead of
safeguarding, your job and your colleague's job is to force meetings on
unwitting vulnerable people, making them feel that they are being listened to
and something will be done, to meet Church targets and legislation and
insurance needs rather than any care or concern.
This is
wrong, especially if you badger someone into a meeting as you tried to with me,
with all those emails full of fake warmth and sympathy for show after allowing
and aiding my public discrediting. You have psychologically injured me and when
you didn't get your meeting and I continued to complain about the open and
glaring safeguarding failure of me being publicly destroyed and discredited,
you battened down the hatches and have refused to act upon the massive
safeguarding failure of which you were part and condoned.
I am speaking up for
the voiceless vulnerable and not just me, I don't know how many vulnerable
people have been bullied into meetings to close their complaints down and meet
insurance needs but it must stop, and you must address my case as I have been
left suffering and knowing that you and Moira Murray condone my suffering and
uphold the wrongdoers in my case, who all still have access to the vulnerable
and pose a risk to them and have not been dealt with,
I know from
the things that you said on the phone that you did not know what had happened
to me and you were not interested, you upheld Gladwin and his upholding of the
Jersey Deanery with the help of a conflicted Jersey advocate, you upheld Elaine
Rose's illegal interference in the whitewash Jersey Safeguarding Partnership
report that was set up between Jane Fisher and the police as part of the mutual
absolving of wrong partnership that they had been running since 2008, and you
tried to excuse what had happened to me in being publicly destroyed instead of
addressing it. Not good safeguarding.
You didn't get your meeting as you and
Jane Dodds were unable to explain why you so urgently needed to meet me or why
it was 'for my welfare' when you had watched and even taken part as I was
publicly destroyed, after ignoring my anguished pleas for help for seven months
and only contacting me during my public destruction by the Church, and for
their sake and not mine, to tick boxes and close the matter down.
The Church
of England do not safeguard, and while you have been part of this atrocity and
have decided to stay in your positions while ignoring my distress because you
were 'advised' to, thus further branding and shaming me, the Church of England
can't safeguard. No matter what denials and condonement of wrongdoers you have
made, the fact that you are still in your positions and refusing to respond
properly to my distress and leaving me carrying the burden of the Church's wrongdoing,
you are not safeguarding, you are covering up, you are condoning horrifying
misconduct by senior clergy such as the Archbishop and Bishops, and while you
do that, nothing has changed in Church of England safeguarding. And you should
be ashamed of yourself for being part of this and leaving me falling under the
intolerable weight of injustice and the blame for all of the wrongdoing that I
have suffered and reacted to.
The whole of
my adult life has been affected by abuse and prejudice in the Church of England
and the most appalling lack of safeguarding possible, for which I have been
made to blame. And for more than a year you have, by your actions and attitude
to me, rammed that blame down my throat, you have taken advice from wrongdoers
with the Church's interests at heart and not mine, and have made my suffering
worse, as did your colleage Jane Dodds, who before she finished moonlighting as
safeguarding caseworker for the Church of England and returned to her real job,
inflicted the worst distress possible on me by upholding the church of england
and their wrongdoing to me, excusing them and telling me that she and you
'wanted to make my life how it was before'. I cry when I remember such an awful
crass thing being said to me after I had been unhealably destroyed.
And then
after you and Dodds had finished chewing me up, upholding the harm to me and
trying to badger me into a meeting, you didn't get what you wanted so instead
of calling an independent inquiry - which you did discuss in order to try to get
me into that meeting that you badger alleged victims into - you decided you
would do nothing and leave me destroyed and suffering unhealably, you decided
to ignore my calls and letters asking for my case to be referred outside the
Church to an independent agency who would not be biased as you were against me
on advice given to you and a one-sided Church of England version of my case.
You and Jane Dodd's replacement have ignored my distress and in the case of
Moira Murray, Jane's replacement, putting the phone down on me is the solution.
There is no safeguarding in the Church of
England and you and Dodds and Murray failed me and refused to refer my case
outside of the church once you decided you wouldn't engage with me as you would
not get your meeting. To make things worse, despite you knowing (or not knowing
the true picture) of the police being used against me persistently and
one-sidedly by the church to try to silence me, doing lasting damage, I have
had the police on my doorstep ruining my life, another part of the new
safeguarding failure routine, hound the church's victims with unsolicited and
harmful efforts by the police to try to get victim statements, the same police
who beat and imprisoned me for the church for years.
I am not accepting the church
trying to force me to be a sexual abuse victim and not a victim of very severe
and enduring misconduct of which you have been part, condoned, upheld and
excused, leading to lasting damage to me. My distress and pain will never be
gone, and I have asked the Church who have destroyed me beyond healing to pay
for my attendance at Dignitas, it would be the first humane treatment they have
ever offered me if and when they agree. You haven't safeguarded me, you have
failed me on the advice of misadvisers and a 'case file' that you boasted that
doesn't include my story and you have upheld wrongdoers at my expense. You
should step down, what happens to the voiceless vulnerable?
I believe
that SCIE should make a freedom of information request, as should I, and look
at that 'case file' and both they and I are entitled to copies of all the
whitewash reports into my case. Unless the Church willingly provides those
reports, something is very wrong with Church of England Safeguarding. Well
something is very wrong with Church of England Safeguarding, but Paul Butler
and Justin Welby, with no conscience or remorse for destroying me and leaving
dangerous people such as Bob and Daphne Key in positions where they can access
the vulnerable, intend to go on using safeguarding as a falsehood and a
vainglorious boast for the Church of England in the public spotlight.
Bob and
Daphne Key and other people involved in the harm to me remain a risk to the
vulnerable and that is the clearest indication possible of your bias and unwillingness
to safeguarding properly because you uphold and endorse harm to me and blame
me, as you did in everything you and Jane Dodds did and said regarding the
matter. You have behaved atrociously in pushing the blame onto me after failing
to even contact me until asked to do so by the people who had harmed me, for
their benefit.
It was clear
that you didn't want to meet me to take my account of things or act upon it, as
you would have already been acting swiftly against the wrongdoers had you been
in any way willing to act, and one meeting would not resolve anything. I am
horrified that you have tried to badger me into the meeting that you badger and
bully vulnerable survivors into, without doing anything about the harm to me,
and ignoring my cries for help before you contacted me on behalf of the
wrongdoers, you wanted to meet me for the Church's benefit and not mine, and
when I challenged you and your open repeating back to me of the mis-advice you
had been given about how to respond to my distress when you provoked it with
your crass mishandling of your part in the cover-up, you dropped me like hot
coals. You horrify me, you have played a part in destroying me, you have upheld
wrongdoers and you appear to think that this is acceptable and that the Church are
protected while I will suffer until I die. Apparently, to you, that is
safeguarding.
Would you
please do as asked for a year and refer my case to a safeguarding body outside
of the Church of England, make sure that they contact me instead of whitewashing
my case over again, and then it really will be best if you and Moira Murray
take stock of your terrible attitude to me and the damage you have done in
protecting the wrongdoers in my case and upholding them while I have been
publicly destroyed, and you should both step down and go to jobs where you will
not be insulting victims by blaming them and their distress and upholding
wrongdoers.
And don't
forget the request for me to attend Dignitas. If you really think that I am
worse than abusers or Bishops and Deans who destroy the vulnerable, if you
really think that I should go on carrying the vicious branding that the Church
have inflicted on me through police, press and other authorities, I don't want
to live. I don't want to live in a world where people like you uphold evil from
an organization which still stupidly and emptily uses the Name of Jesus' for
limitless abuse of power and destruction of the vulnerable.
I don't want to
live enduring Justin Welby's lies in the press and media when my destruction is
the reason he shouldn't be there to lie any more, but no authority stands up to
the corrupt and Godless Church of England, you are even having a fake
safeguarding audit done, one in which my case is carefully airbrushed out, lied
about, so that the Child abuse inquiry's strategic delay for Welby's sake can
be used for the PR campaign over the fake audit presumably.
I don't want
to live in the same world as the church of england and their use of the word
'safeguarding' to mean self-glorification and cover up, while I suffer and
suffer with no relief and no way that there very can be relief because you
uphold what has happened to me, you condone it, and you blame and shame me for
my distress.
Let me know
when you are willing to deal with the wrongdoers and abusers in my case and
take away the burden of shame and branding that I carry. Let me know when you
and Moira Murray are willing to fulfil your title and record my story and
redact the public discrediting of me by the Archbishop and Bishops and
apologize for your failure to contact me until they demanded it on their
behalf. Let me know when you stop taking mis-advice that puts the blame on me
and when you are willing to record my side of things. If you can't do any of
this, step down because you are not safeguarding, you are taking part in harm
and abuse of a vulnerable adult. Probably more than one.
Finally,
remember to 'advise' your church that reaction to sustained harm by the Church
is not a 'mental illness' whereby the victim can be discredited. Advise yourself
this as well.
JJ/HG -
Victim of the massive Jersey and Winchester safeguarding stunt, smear campaign,
whitewash and discrediting
A few letters from the Premier Blitz Weekend/ #synod
07/07/2017 To the
Bishop of Winchester, CC Safeguarding Director Jackie Rowlands, the National
Safeguarding Team , the Archbishop of Canterbury and Hampshire Constabulary
Dear Bishop Tim Dakin,
I am writing to remind you that you have left me publicly destroyed
from a three year smear campaign that ended last year with you publicly
destroying and discrediting me but failing to tell the general public the
reason you had to discredit me, that I had take
you to court over the conflicted whitewash attack on me created by the
conflicted Dame Heather Steel.
The depth of illegal activity and misconduct that you and
your associated clergy and laity have committed is serious, severe, no other
organization except the lawless church of england would get away with such
atrocities and not be closed down with multiple arrests. And what really
concerns me is that the church are behaving in this illegal and dangerous way
at the same time as running schools and having charge of little children. I am
sure that you can appreciate how severe the safeguarding risk is.
I would also like to point out that getting your staff or
safeguarding director to put the phone down on me when I phone to remind you
that this matter isn't resolved and I am suffering is not making the matter go
away. Although I do understand from recent articles by other survivors that
this is now church of england policy right up to the National Safeguarding Team
who are doing the same to survivors, as you may have seen from my blog and
Mark's blog where these articles and interviews by survivors are printed.
There needs to be a report into what I have suffered in the
Diocese of Winchester from 2001 onwards and also a very serious report into the
harm against me that you have led since 2013. This is also a complaint that you
are still not safeguarding and have a collusive safeguarding director who
thinks that putting the phone down on me and ignoring my emailed and written
complaints will make them go away. Nothing will make this go away, it just
makes your staff and safeguarding director guilty of cover-up and aiding and
abbetting your crimes.
I may die as Peter
Ball's victim did, but hopefully in an arranged suicide at Dignitas, but what I
have said as you destroyed me and since you destroyed me will never go away, no
matter how much of congregants money you fraudulently use on PR or lawyers, and
no matter how much you instruct your staff and they obey, to block me, ignore
me or put the phone down on me - what that equates to is you trying to make the
reality of your wrongdoing go away. Peter Ball was protected by George Carey
just as you have been protected by Justin Welby. Anyone involved is guilty and
putting the phone down so that what I say isn't heard is not making it go away.
Justin Welby and John Sentamu are extremely guilty for
protecting you and allowing your unchecked harm to continue, as is every person
I have contacted who are afraid to act against the Church. But that doesn't
make the harm go away, those men who have protected you are as guilty as you,
for allowing you, indeed in Justin Welby's case, aiding you in unhealably
destroying me and almost causing my suicide.
Sincerely, your victim, JJ#

Dear Archbishop John Sentamu,
I wrote to you a few years ago regarding the way I was being
destroyed by the Bishop of Winchester.
Unfortunately, dissapointingly, you failed completely in
your duty of care and in safeguarding me and allowed the Bishop to go right on
destroying me, with the support and assistance of the Archbishop of Canterbury,
and I was nearly killed as a result and have been left utterly destroyed,
suffering anguish and trauma and in severe distress. I have no support or help
due to the abuses of power, and I would like you to take responsibility for
your failings.
I enclose 5 reports
and 2 books relating to my case, and they are only part of the story, I live in
poverty, I can't afford to send you any more at the moment. If the parcel has
been opened by your staff and the books are missing, you must retrieve them as
eventually this matter will be investigated and you can't plead ignorance.
The reports are HG Jersey Safeguarding Report, Very
Cuttings, The Hill Report, The Fisher Report, Safeguarding Team Audit, and the
books are The Rogue to Canterbury and Destruction. This is also a formal
complaint about DR Daphne Green, your disgraced Safeguarding Director. It
doesn't matter what status or title a church safeguarding officer is, if they
degrade and rubbish victims and do not act, and in my case she has rubbished me
and failed to act, so you need to deal with her.
When I rang your offices a few years ago, Daphne was
initially friendly but demanded the gory details of the abuse rather than
addressing the real issue of the massive safeguarding failure, she was
lecherous and lavscious and not bothered about leaving me in tears, maybe she
is in the job for the purpose of sexual need rather than safeguarding.
But then she was 'advised' about me, through the church's
internal slander and self-protection machine, and she rubbished me. At the time
I was in collapse over the November 2015 attack on me over the Steel report,
which led to Bob Hill's collapse, and Daphne Green's behaviour to me and
denial, and claim that you had done everything you could about the Bishop of
Winchester was inappropriate and insulting, that was the end of her career in
safeguarding or would have been if the church was any normal and ethical
organization.
Neither you nor Daphne Green dealt with the Bishop, you left
me suffering and being destroyed, and that is evidenced, so this is a formal
complaint. Would you please kindly do your duty regarding this matter, and it
is your duty, as the Archbishop of Canterbury is a rudderless noise machine and
the matter was referred to you as he has no capability whatseoever to address
any serious matters or hold the church accountable, you took the matter but
failed to act, and the damage to me as a result is your responsibility and now,
belatedly, you must do something about it as well as replacing your disgraced
safeguarding officer who thinks slandering and believing slander is an alternative
to safeguarding.
No lessons have been learned from the Peter Ball case, his
victims were slandered and discredited and one of them is dead, I also nearly
died, slandered and shamed, but now you must act.

cover-up
