If the regional mental health facility, the Henry Rongomau Bennett
Centre, wasn’t already a circus, it soon will be when ringmaster and
Director of Mental Health, John Crawshaw send’s in the clowns for
another token inspection to ascertain why this service is failing so
miserably.
And what a dismal track record this outfit has.
In
2010 Christine Morris scaled the security fence and bludgeoned her
neighbour, Diane White, to death. Coroner Peter Ryan recommended that
the DHB erect a higher fence, Clinical Director of the Henry Bennet
Centre, Rees Tapsell refused.
In 2013, it was reported that
psychiatrist Paul Fox, who had been de-registered in the USA for sexual
misconduct, and was the former clinician for the Sandy Hook Elementary
School mass murderer Adam Lanza was employed by the DHB. Fox was
de-registered in NZ by the Medical Council in February 2014.
In
March 2015 Nicky Stevens, known to be suicidal, was allowed to leave the
wards for an unsupervised cigarette break, despite the families’ pleas
to keep him safe. Nicky’s body was recovered from the Waikato River
three days later.
The following month two patients with a history of violence scaled the security fence and fled the city.
More
recently it was discovered that a man gained employment with Waikato
Mental Health Services posing as a psychiatrist. Mohamed Shakeel
Siddiqui has been arrested and charged with obtaining a pecuniary
advantage by deception.
It certainly is quite a pitiful rap sheet
for a service designed to care for and protect a very vulnerable group
within the community.
Should we really be surprised though? Are the lunatics in fact running the asylum? It seems so;
In
addition to the dubious hiring practices highlighted by the examples
above, one member of staff who understands forensic Mental Health
treatment first hand is Peer Support Worker Trudi Tapsell, yes sister of
Clinical Director Rees Tapsell.
She was once a special patient
herself, detained under the Mental Health Act. Ms Tapsell, as a 26 year
old, was found not guilty by reason of insanity of the brutal murder of
her grandmother, whose decapitated body was found wrapped in plastic
bags in a freezer, her head was found in a rubbish bag nearby. Ms
Tapsell, with the help of her brother, has now moved on from being the
patient to being the clinician, working with a very vulnerable group of
people.
Clearly her current employers know her background (given
it is a family affair), but considering she carries no conviction for
the murder of her grandmother, because Not Guilty By Reason of Insanity
is an acquittal of sorts, is it not appropriate that in the interests of
transparency and trust, the patients she works with, and their
families, know her background?
One would think so, although unfortunately this is not the case.

Elaine Crozier/Winchester's outrageous notes:

Friends had contacted a social service organisation receiving government funding called "Atareira", which was linked with another organisation called "Oasis", and asked for assistance, specifically asking that a staff member go to Te Whare Ahuru and assist me.
So in due course, on 3rd June 2011, a woman was ushered in by staff at Te Whare Ahuru who introduced her to me as "Elaine Winchester" - I took one look at her and said "You're Elaine Crozier, and I know you from the Carterton Community Centre." The woman denied this repeatedly, saying she was NOT Elaine Crozier and had never seen me before. She was lying - deliberately. She knew perfectly well that I had been Secretary and Finance Officer of the committee who had employed her, and that I had queried her appointment and the process of appointing her and the fact that she had provided no curriculum vitae or references. Elaine Crozier/Winchester's employment at the Carterton Community Centre was short lived because she colluded with the corrupt and incompetent group of District Councillors who had been involved for years in ripping off the funding of the Centre and it's dozen or so bank accounts, all funded by charities, our taxes, etc. The victims of these rip offs were the poor, the disadvantaged, which makes the frauds even more despicable.
Five months later, on the 11th or 12th November 2011, I realised exactly who she was after she posted extremely insensitive and offensive material on her facebook page following the death of Ceridwen Allom, aged 15. Elaine Crozier/Winchester first posted a music video with the words "posted for youthful Ceridwen, suicided this week aged 15 of Masterton special daughter of close friends of my son Hugh we have lights guiding us" - this is a clear breach of section 71 of the Coroner's Act 2006:
"71 Restrictions on making public of details of self-inflicted deaths
- (1)No person may, without a coroner's authority, make public any particular relating to the manner in which a death occurred if—
- (a)the death occurred in New Zealand after the commencement of this section; and
- (b)there is reasonable cause to believe the death was self-inflicted; and
- (c)no inquiry into the death has been completed.
(2)If a coroner has found a death to be self-inflicted, no person may, without a coroner's authority or permission under section 72, make public a particular of the death other than—- (a)the name, address, and occupation of the person concerned; and
- (b)the fact that the coroner has found the death to be self-inflicted.
(3)The only grounds on which a coroner may under this section authorise the making public of particulars of the death (other than those specified in subsection (2)(a) and (b)) are that the making public of particulars of that kind is unlikely to be detrimental to public safety.
I was shocked to discover that the woman I had challenged was indeed the same person who had repeatedly denied that she was Elaine Crozier. I wrote to the organisation who had sent her to Te Whare Ahuru and made a formal complaint regarding her deliberately dishonest denial of the facts regarding her identity and a request for all information held by the organisation about myself - I was in for an even bigger shock. It's important that incompetent and corrupt people such as Elaine Winchester/Crozier and prevented from working with vulnerable people because this is why we have such high rates of suicide in this country, because incompetent and corrupt liars like this are being moved from one job to the next without ever being held accountable for a long string of unprofessional, dishonest, corrupt, cruel treatment heaped on one person after another - it's like moving the parish priest to another parish after they rape a few kids - it doesn't solve the problem it makes it WORSE!
Shortly after posting the incredibly insensitive - and illegal - comments on facebook about the suicide - well before half of Ceridwen Allom's friends would have been informed of her death - Crozier/Winchester then posted the following facebook entry: "Y'all gon get your minds blown the fuck outta this world", "This is by far the best thing I've ever seen on the net and y'all know I've posted some crazy ass shit, right?" - making a mockery of the reference to the deceased in the opinion of many people and showing gross insensitivity and lack of empathy.
In due course I received Elaine Crozier/Wakefield's "notes" - made regarding her visit to Te Whare Ahuru during which she lied to my face about her identity - this is what she wrote about me:
Elaine "managed IHC adult service" as she puts it, for a VERY short time after it was revealed that she had lied regarding her Curriculum Vitae and references. I was the Acting Manager prior to her appointment, and I was Secretary and Finance Officer of the committee of the Carterton Community Centre, which interviewed her and which was her employer.
Repeated requests to Atareira for any evidence of any qualifications or relevant experience for the role of "social worker" or "family support worker" have been refused or ignored.
There IS no "Town Community Council" in Carterton and there is NO evidence of "her psychosis" because no such psychosis existed! Elaine Crozier/Winchester is a deliberate liar who saw an opportunity to slander me out of revenge for exposing her lies about her CV!
New Zealanders deserve better than this - and it's high time this evil lying witch got her snout out of the trough of taxpayer funded "social services" - this post will be updated shortly!

High Court Application for section 84 Judicial Inquiry:
Two corrupt Carterton Constables arrested me on 4th March 2011 for not appearing in the Wellington Court for a minor fixture after WINZ declined to assist me with travel costs to get to Porirua to attend two appointments with psychiatrists, one of whom was 'Dr' Brenda Sally Rimkeit. WINZ refused the applications (in writing) on the grounds that "Work and Income cannot be seen to be assisting people who do not abide by the law."
This is obviously in blatant disregard to the established cornerstone of justice for centuries that a person is to be considered innocent until proven guilty! Two psychiatric reports were required by the Court, following one report written by eminent psychiatrist Dr Justin Barry-Walsh in November 2010, in which Dr Barry-Walsh says "I do not think this woman is suffering from any mental disorder, and in particular I don't think she is suffering from the onset of persecutory delusions."
Following my arrest I was pushed and shoved and groped and then locked in a cell in the Masterton police station, and taken before a Justice of the Peace, ONE Justice of the Peace, the following day, Saturday. I explained that my attendance had been excused because the reports had not been completed and that Judge Barry had agreed with me only days earlier that the appointments should have been made in Masterton not Porirua, like the appointment with Dr Barry-Walsh. He ignored this and ordered that I be sent to prison, and I was taken to Arohata Prison, strip searched, processed and locked up.
The following Monday I was taken to the Wellington Court, but the amicus curiae assigned to the matter (the corruptly laid charges of Perverting the Course of Justice and Escaping From Custody), Bryan Yeoman, didn't turn up, so I was taken back to the prison and brought back the following day.
On Tuesday 8th March I was taken back to Wellington Court, where I was visited in the Court cells by Yeoman and 'Dr' Brenda Sally Rimkeit, an American woman, who conspired with Yeoman, and wrote a certificate saying that in her opinion I needed to be locked up in a mental facility to have the reports completed! Judge Davidson supported this corrupt conspiracy, and as a result of this I eventually ended up locked in two mental asylums for a total of three months. While I was there I learned that Yeoman and others specialise in exploiting vulnerable mental health clients, with the co-operation of and corrupt "psychiatrists" like Drs Brenda Sally Rimkeit, Jacqueline Short, Sarah Romans, Gary Orr and others. A series of lawyers refused to do anything constructive about the scandalous situation, or refused to listen to my instructions about what to do about it, so I was finally forced to write my own application for a Judicial Inquiry under section 84 of the Mental Health Act.
I sat up in my cell at Rangipapa late into the night writing this out by hand, and then waited till there was an honest member of staff on duty to fax it to the Court. This in itself wasn't easy because I was being forcibly medicated with drugs designed to induce the effect of a chemical lobotomy and reduce well functional people to vegetative states, then there was the Management Plans of the doctors and nurses which stipulated that I wasn't allowed any phone calls or mail, pens, paper, copies of legislation, etc. Eventually I managed to contact friends who sent me writing materials, and after spitting out the medication that wasn't being forcibly injected, wrote the Application for Judicial Inquiry myself, late into the night after we were locked in our cells.
The Application named the Capital Coast Health Board and the Attorney General as Co-Respondents, and eventually resulted in my release, together with the support of a number of people in the community, who phoned, wrote letters of complaint, swore affidavits, came to Court and gave evidence, protested, signed a petition, and took a lot of other action to protest this scandalous abuse of powers and outright blatant corruption. Here is the Application for Judicial Review, and I urge others to take similar action if faced with the same corruption, first make application under section 16 for a judicial review, and if that fails, read section 84, and apply for a Judicial Inquiry. Of course, this is assuming you can get hold of a pen and paper, let alone copies of the legislation - phone a lawyer and instruct them in writing to get you a pen and paper and copies of the relevant legislation (the Mental Health Act and the Criminal Procedure (Mentally Impaired Persons) Act), then instruct the lawyer in writing to make the two applications under sections 16 and then 84:

From Fax: (04) 918 2562 Rangipapa Unit, Porirua Hospital
To the High Court at Wellington:
May it please the Court:
I, Katherine Raue, wish to make an urgent application under section 84(2) and section 84(3) of the Mental Health (Compulsory Assessment and Treatment Act 1992 to be brought before a Judge for examination and on the evidence of other witnesses, for the purpose of a Judicial Inquiry to establish that I am fit to be discharged from the hospital, (section 84(3)(b)).
I respectfully request that the Court consider such evidence as the attached affidavit from Witness X, and other documents, including several psychiatric reports and letters from lawyers relevant to this matter, and the evidence of several witnesses, including Witness X.
Judge DRW Barry of the District Court has already acknowledged that there are serious factual inaccuracies in at least one of the recent reports prepared for the Court. At a recent fixture in the Masterton Court Judge Barry acknowledged that reference to " a previous pattern" of involvement with police when she lived in Wellington" (report of Dr Justin Barry-Walsh, November 2009, and attributed to Constable Peter Cunningham) was erroneous and significantly misleading in that I had not lived in Wellington for about thirty years, and had had next to nothing to do with police all my life until having the misfortune to come to Carterton in 1999 and meet Constable Cunningham, who told Dr Barry-Walsh (and anyone else who will listen) this orchestrated litany of lies.
Judge Barry also acknowledged evidence from a number of lawyers which included a letter from one which stated that it was "obvious that you have been a lightning rod for Police attention since you arrived in the Wairarapa, and that has resulted in many unnecessary charges being laid and this was most unfair to you." This particular letter commented that the lawyer writing it (Ken Daniels) was pleased at the dismissal of a number of charges against me and that it was obvios that there had been no evidence to support them from the outset and they should not have been laid. Other letters from lawyers comment strongly on the refusal of Police take statements or formal complaints from me on a large number of valid matters including several matters directly relevant to the current charges against me. Police themselves have admitted repeatedly refusing to take complaints when questioned about it in Court.
I also wish to respectfully request a review or Judicial Inquiry or an Appeal of the recent decision of District Court Judge B Davidson's finding under Section 9 of the Criminal Procedure (Mentally Impaired Persons) Act 2003. With respect to Judge Davidson, it is perfectly clear that there is NOT sufficient evidence, on the balance of probabilities, to establish that I caused the act that forms the basis of the offence with which I am charged. For your ease of reference I attach the wirness statements, and transcript of the Depositions Hearing.
If I may draw your attention to the transcript of the Depositions Hearing, page 7 (also marked 12 in the upper right hand corner for some reason), refering to the numbers in the left hand margin, at (5) or thereabouts the principal Crown witness states that he "took no notice at the time" of what I was saying.
At (15) or thereabouts he states that he has ADHD and forgets things (ADHD is a mental disorder as far as I understand it).
At (20) or thereabouts the witness is again asked what it is thatI am alleged to have said to him and his response is: "She goes to me, she says - I don't know, it's gone."
And at (30) the witness agrees that he hasn't got a clue what I said to him basically. The matter should not have proceeded beyond Depositions let alone the Section 9 hearing!
Briefly, the background to this matter is that on 11th February 2009 I was attacked in my home by the Crown witness in the matter of the alleged Perverting the Course of Justice, Michael Francis Murphy, and others. Police refused to even take a statement from me regarding this violent attack, let alone charge Mr Murphy. The attack was in response to - or rather, a result of - Mr Murphy finding out that I had raised concerns of child abuse and violence involving him to the local police - another matter the Wairarapa police have refused to investigate.
Three totally independent witnesses to this attack on 11 February 2009 all rang emergency seriveces on 111 as they witnessed the violent attack as it was taking place, but despite this, Police refused to take a statement from me, or from two of the witnesses. I then requested the audiotape of the 111 call made by one of the witnesses, and Police refused to provide it. After complaining to the Ombudsmen I received a computer disk containing 46 Police radio tracks, including the call to 111 from the third witness, who I had been unaware of prior to receiving the disk, which also contained a number of other tracks which were potentially very embarrassing to the police as well as incriminating Mr Murphy.
Shortly after Police became aware that I had this disk (about two months after the attack) I arrived home one day and caught Murphy stealing a satchel containing the disk and some documents. I immediately rang police and made a signed statement to Constable Laura Rhymer, which was recorded in her notebook.
If I may draw your attention to page 12 of transcript of the the Depositions hearing (17 in the top right hand corner) reference is made to a statement allegedly taken a coule of hours later, also by Constable Rhymer, from Crown witness Aaron Brook (who can't remember what it is I am alleged to have said to him because of his ADHD).
This statement was NOT recorded in Constable Rhymer's notebook - and nor was it included in the Disclosure to the defence (me). I was unaware of its existence until that moment, half way through Constable Rhymer's evidence at the Depositions hearing.
Page 12 paragraph (20) Murphy's evidence alleges that he didn't go to my house since Christmas 2008 except for a couple of occasions "when we were friends" (page one of the transcript). - I specifically asked the amicus curiae - ex police officer Bryan Yeoman - to question Murphy closely about the attack on 11 February 2009, but Yeoman refused to do so.
Dr Brenda Sally Rimkeit wrote a certificate to the Court stating that in her opinion I needed to be detained in a psychiatric institution to have assessments done to see if I am fit to stand trial.
Judge DRW Barry had accepted my explanation only a few weeks earlier that the only reason I had failed to attend two earlier appointments was because they had been made in Porirua when they should have been made in Masterton (as the one in November 2009, with Dr Barry-Walsh had been), and also, I had been unable to attend the appointments at Porirua because I had received one days notice in one case and three days in the other case, and that WINZ had refused to assist me with travel costs on the grounds that "Work and Income cannot be seen to assist clients who do not abide by the law."!
Surely this is a breach of the cornerstone of justice for centuries, that a person is presumed innocent until proven guilty! I was unable to attend Court in Wellington on 28 February 2011 for the same reason,and mistakenly thought my attendance had been excused on that day, pending the completion of the psychiatric reports.
I explained this reason for my non attendance for the two recent appointments to Dr Rimkeit, but she refused to accept it (unlike Judge Barry) and the amicus refused to explain it to Judge Davidson, who didn't allow me to speak.
Dr Rimkeit's report to the District Court, dated 22 March 2011 states on page 9: "My concern that (sic) if she proceeds to represent herself at Court she may, through her delusional belief system falsely accuse certain parties of wrongdoing."
Dr Rimkeit's belief is that I suffer from "Delusional Disorder." Even if she was correct (I do not agree) this is not a major mental disorder, and I do not pose a danger to myself or anyone else. Just because I hold the view that the Police - certain specific police officers, not all police I hasten to add, are/have not treated me fairly, does not necessarily mean that I an delusional.
Dr Rimkeit's report and others contain a large number of factual inaccuracies. Just one example of this is the last paragraph of page 8 of her report, continued on page 9, where Dr Rimkeit goes on about the "headmaster of the local school in Carterton that she was fired from being paid off or bribed . . . " and something about a car. I clearly stated to her an entirely factual account about receiving a letter from the Board of Trustees of the school, sacking me because, according to the letter, the Board had recently received information from the local Police that I had "recently been charged with an offence involving a child."
I have never in my life been charged with any such offence! The writers of the letter are delusional, not me!
Dr Rimkeit raised the proposition that the Principal's new car had anything to do with the matter, I merely said it was a coincidence, and only after she asked me if I thought he was bribed with the car. She also mentions suicide in the third paragraph on that page - I have never EVER attempted or even intended to commit suicide, I have never planned or threatened to. I have repeatedly requested that discussions between me and the psychiatrists are recorded by audio or video and these requests have been continually refused.
The reports appear to be an orchestrated litany of lies, bearing no resemblance to fact, almost every paragraph containing significant FACTUAL inaccuracies, as opposed to matters of opinion.
My main concern is that any subsequent reports will take the inaccurate reports into account and be therefore tainted. My only involvement with mental health services previously was to request a referral from my GP to the "To Be Heard" program. This program assists people who feel they aren't being listened to (by Police etc) as I was/am suffering from depression (moderate).
Upon admission to Rangipapa, and on the orders of Dr Rimkeit - my "responsible clinician" the four medications prescribed by my GP were abruptly ceased, causing serious side effects.
I am not psychotic, or delusional. Witness X, my landlady, will give evidence that a rock larger than my head was thrown through the window of the "granny flat" I occupy at her address very recently. I did not imagine this, or the attack on 11th February 2009. I identified Michael Murphy at the time the rock was thrown, as did the three independent witnesses to the attack on 11 February 2009, and again Police have refused to charge him. Crown witness Aaron Brook has stated repeatedly that he saw Murphy in the near vicinity when I cought him burgling my house in April 2009.
Aaron Brook's evidence is consistent in that regard, unlike his evidence against me. Mr Brook came to my house and volunteered this information. I did not ever suggest that he tell Police anything whatsoever apart from what he actually told me he witnessed. His statements (witness statement, Depositions statement) and the Depositions transcript are very vague indeed about the crime I am alleged to have committed, saying that he "felt" I wanted him to lie.
I respectfully submit that Aaron Brook is more delusional than I am, or at best he is simply mistaken, or misunderstood what I said.
The section 9 Criminal Procedure (Mentally Impaired Persons) Act 2003 matter was not properly addressed if it was addressed at all. The amicus curiae told Judge Davidson that the Depositions hearing had established that the Court was satisfied of my involvement in the offence, but I respectfully submit that this was not the case and the amicus knows that perfectly well.
I am not a lawyer, but have developed an interest in the law and would like to continue legal studies (I passed introduction to law). I am currently being detained in a secure mental facility, having not been convicted of an offence, and have been for over eight weeks. I am not being permitted any incoming or outgoing phone calls or visits except from lawyers, and not permitted any incoming or outgoing mail I was told today.
For over two weeks I was detained in conditions that were frankly appalling - isolation, no excercise, sunlight, company or stimulus, although as I write this I am now in the "main ward" again and conditions are improved slightly.
While in the seclusion ward I had very limited access to my property, including basic items such as pen and paper. Pain in my hand and wrist makes writing difficult and I have no access to a computer, typewriter, etc. I apologise for the length and disjointed nature of this letter, the main points (in summary) are:
1. I do not suffer from any major mental disorder.
2. I am not a danger to myself, or others.
3.` The requested assessments could be completed if I were discharged from "hospital", and appointments scheduled in Masterton.
4. I have been here over eight weeks, and there have been four or five reports completed in that time, some of which suggest that I have "Delusional Disorder" for thinking that some Police officers are not treating me fairly, there has not been any consideration given to the possibility that this belief may be valid
5. I am being forcibly medicated with strong anti-psychotic medication, causing serious side effects. There has been no formal cognitive test done to support the "diagnosis" and no "treatment" apart from the medication.
6. I respectfully submit that I was fit to plead not guilty (as I did), I am fit to appear in Court, and fit to represent myself if necessary. I attach a copy of the decision of Judge DRW Barry on the matter of an application by the Crown pursuant to Section 344A of the Crimes Act 1961, dated 30 September 2010. I opposed the Crown's application and represented myself at the hearing of it. The application was in relation to a related charge of Escaping From Custody.
Paragraph 19 of Judge Barry's decision explains that this charge was included in the indictment for allegedly Perverting the Course of Justice.
During the course of the hearing the Crown made another application, under section 347 of the Crimes Act, that I be discharged of the offence (deemed to be an acquittal). I managed to conduct myself appropriately, under difficult circumstances, and represent myself competently. I prepared for the hearing as best I could, having only received the various precedent decisions less than a day before the hearing (at least one of these was handed to me after the hearing began, the first time I'd seen it) and I achieved the outcome I had planned to achieve. There were no "emotional outbursts" as referred to in Dr Rimkeit's report, not did I speak "out of turn" at any stage or have to be rebuked by the Judge. I was acquitted of the charge, after an application from the Crown to the Judge to do so under section 347.
7. An urgent inquiry is required into the factual inaccuracies in the psychiatric reports written since I have been incarcerated and forcibly drugged and the factually incorrect information given by Constable Cunningham to Dr Barry-Walsh. The Family Court has asked for yet another report now. The problem is that subsequent reports take the "previous history" - and the previous reports - into account, and are, and will be, therefore tainted. Another example of the factual inaccuracies is the claim on page 9 of Dr Rimkeit's report that I was abused as a young child. This is simply not true.
I look forward to hearing from you as soon as possible.

To the High Court at Wellington:
May it please the Court:
Further to my application for a Judicial Inquiry pursuant to section 84 of the Mental Health Act, dated 19 April 2011.
I am being prevented from contacting anyone, including Legal Services, the Court, the Police, etc, and staff are being extremely obstructive and not facilitating communication with lawyers. Staff continually sat "later", or simply disappear for hour after hour, day after day.
Lawyers assigned by legal aid are refusing to accept or carry out instructions. Several such lawyers have been instructed to address the matter of the factual inaccuracies in the recent reports and to request a Judicial Inquiry into these matters, and sumply refuse to do so, perferring to delay and drag out these proceedings in order to extract the maximum amount of legal aid that they can they then inform me that the grant has been used up and for that reason they cannot continue to act. One "forgot" to attend yesterday's hearing.
This is a gross miscarriage of justice. I am the victim of crime - not the perpetrator! I am not delusional in believing that certain police officers are not treating me fairly. The failure and refusal of Wairarapa Police to investigate child abuse allegations has been well publicised recently.
I reported my concerns about Michael Murphy's violence (and that of his associates) to Police, who refused to acknowledge or investigate my allegations. Police then disclosed my complaint to Murphy, who then came to my house with his associates and attacked me. Police refused to charge him in spite of a mountain of evidence of the violent attack then corruptly charged me with Perverting the Course of Justice after Murphy broke into my house to steal the evidence of his violent attack.
Murphy recently threw a large rock through my window, Police refused to take a statement from me. Staff at the facility where I am being held are refusing to allow me to contact Police, IPCA, family, friends, my bank, my landlady, the Court, etc. The refusals amount to perverting the course of justice in themselves!
Documents which were in my possession at the time of my arrest on 4th March 2011 and others which were handed to me at the Masterton Police station have also disappeared including a copy of pages from Constable Rhymer's notbook and a Court Summons. Staff at Rangipapa Unit gave me two fax forms and told me to write faxes to Masterton Police and Arohata Prison specifically about this missing propperty, which I did on 10th April, but then staff informed me that they had received instructions from Dr Rimkeit and Dr Short and that they were not to send the faxes!
The Unit Prison Liaison Officer, Chris Norris, told staff and me that Arogata Prison staff were saying I had never been at the Prison. I was actually admitted there not just once, but twice - once on 5th March 2011, and a second admission was processed on the 7th March because the amicus curiae didn't turn up to Court that day and so I was remanded in custody until the following day.
The missing page of Constable Rhymer's notebook was found to be missing on the night on 7th March, I recorded this with a green highlighter given to me (loaned) by prison staff at Arohata.
The clear, heat sealed plastic property bag from Masterton Police station was shown to me by Prison staff on the evening of 7th March, it was opened by Prison staff in front of me and the papers given to me, the notebook page was obviously removed at the Masterton police station. It is the fifth of five pages written by Constable Rhymer about the burglary by Murphy, the subject of the current charge of Perverting the Course of Justice.
It is now considered a crime to fail to report child abuse. Preventing me from contacting Police and IPCA regarding the abuse by Murphy and his associates is therefore a crime.
Murphy demonstrated his violent tendencies when he smashed my door in in February 2009, and again when he threw a rock through my window recently. He did this because I raised concerns with Police regarding him and his associates in regard to child abuse and violent behaviour. My "responsible clinicians" are preventing me contacting police, IPCA, etc, to report these violent crimes, child abuse, etc, and saying I am delusional. I am not.

1 x decision of Judge DRW Barry dated 30 September 2010
1 x copy of the Depositions transcript of evidence .
~~~~~*~~~~~
The application got me out of Rangipapa almost immediately. The High Court called it up within days, Rimkeit and Short tried to stop me attending the Court hearing of the Application, saying it would be bad for my health or some rubbish, the same excuse they used to stop me havin paper and pens, mail in or out, phone calls in or out, etc, etc, I had to phone lawyers and insist they phone the Court and tell them that the co-respondent was preventing me attending the hearing which was an ouotrageous act of corruption and a total breach of my human rights, the decision to allow me to attend was made at the last minute after a lot of outside intervention.
I got to the Court and found a group of supporters waiting which included Benjamin Easton, who were aware of the situation, fortunately for me. Benjamin had prepared a couple of Writs and other documents, and was eventually permitted to enter the Court and assist me to represent myself.
I was immediately moved to Te Whare Ahuru, to remove me from the jurisdiction of the Capital Coast Health Board, the co-respondent, and therefore invalidate the application, whereupon another corrupt and incompetent "psychiatrist" took over, Dr Gary Orr, who conspired with Drs Rimkeit and Short in continuing this corrupt detention, until Dr Wolfgang Kure put a stop to it after I demanded that the lawyer who had "discontinued" my application (Pamela Harvey) reinstate it immediately listing the Hutt Valley Health Board and the Attorney General as co-respondents. Once again I was released within days. I believe this was due partly to the instruction to the lawyer, in front of witnesses, to reinstate the Application immediately (as soon as she told me it had been "discontinued", weeks later when I asked her what the delay was in having it heard), and partly to a growing campaign of public awareness including protests outside the hospital, a petition, etc, almost daily visits and phone calls from concerned citizens, and a growing awareness of the corruption being perpetrated at the already damned local mental health service, etc. This community network did more to help than most of the lawyers, who pocketed thousands.
It's seriously concerning that honest, sane and law abiding citizens are being locked in mental asylums, because the police are telling people I'm delusional for criticising them. The unhealthy relationship between the Masterton Police and the Masterton Court staff is well known, as is the sleazy depravity of officers like ex Constable Stephen Wakefield, etc. Dr Justin Barry-Walsh's report documents how corrupt Court liaison officer Alison Mulholland told Dr Barry-Walsh to interview Constable Cunningham about me - she knew perfectly well that Cunningham is a corrupt liar! Cunningham then lied to Dr Barry-Walsh, telling him that I had a history of negative involvement with police "when she previously lived in Wellington" - this is complete and utter fiction and nothing but an orchestrated litany of deliberate LIES! I had next to nothing to do with police all my life till I moved to Carterton and became a target for the corrupt thieves on the Carterton District Council and the corrupt local police and their mates!

I was simply locked up to stop me making true statements about local police and other officials on this website, which is a breach of human rights. If anyone doesn't like what I write on here they are welcome to take defamation action - Georgina Beyer threatened to do it, the Director General of MAF threatened to do it, Gary McPhee threatened to do it - but the government has just passed the Search and Surveillance Bill and other legislation turning New Zealand into a Police state, while the same police who are the main cause of the local suicide rate being double that of the rest of the country because they have been throwing child abuse files in the rubbish bin..
Sitting on their backsides looking at how they can shut my website down!

I'm grateful to Dr Wolfgang Kure for having the courage to be honest.

"It is my opinion (and that of forensic psychiatrist Dr Jacqueline Short, currently my acting supervisor) that Ms Raue is unfit to stand trial. She currently has a mental impairment which is Delusional Disorder. Ms Raue has stated on a number of occasions during this assessment period that she feels capable of representing and defending herself against the current charges. She has suggested that her main line of defence is that the charges are the result of corrupt acts by certain parties and that she will name these parties in Court. My concern is that if she proceeds to represent herself at Court she may, through her delusional belief system, falsely accuse certain parties of wrongdoing."Dr Orr devised a "Treatment Plan" saying - don't give her any paper or writing materials to prepare her defence or write to lawyers, etc, don't send any faxes or do any photocopying, - Drs Rimkeit and Short also cut off all communication with the outside world saying in their professional opinion this was the best "treatment" for my alleged "Delusional Disorder" - this was all an orchestrated litany of utter lies! Funded by YOUR taxes!

More on the Mad Doctors Short, Rimkeit, Orr, et al.
Ten days after Short and Orr wrote this orchestrated litany of lies Dr Nick Judson wrote a report stating that there was nothing wrong with me, and a few days after that Dr Wolfgang Kure released me because he and the majority of the other clinicians and nurses at Te Whare Ahuru knew perfectly well that I didn't have "Delusional Disorder"! Just like Dr Justin Barry-Walsh wrote in his report also! (Click "Ctrl" and "+" at the same time to zoom in on these documents).
And here's a copy of Dr Orr's "Treatment Plan" - like something out of the Dark Ages! Restrict or cut off all phone calls, visitors, access to writing materials - this is the evidence of the state of the mental health service in New Zealand!
This is because I sat up till all hours in my cell at Rangipapa (link below) till about twelve thirty every night writing my own application to the High Court for a Judicial Inquiry under section 84 of the Mental Health (Compulsory Assessment and Treatment) Act. This was after an application for a Judicial Review under section 16.
Luckily for me, Orr, Short and Rimkeit all went to the UK at once, and Dr Wolfgang Kure was appointed my responsible clinician, Dr Kure stopped the toxic forced medication and released me almost straight away. The evidence is clear that this was simply an attempt to pervert the course of justice regarding the corruptly laid charges against me. This matter should be of serious concern to all New Zealanders!
This is also the subject of complaints to the Press Council regarding journalists like Matt Stewart, Nathan Crombie, Tanya Katterns and others.

The Secret Life of Information - Wairarapa Times-Age Backpedals:
Here's a link to the latest response from the Press Council, with the attached correspondence. Note the sheer, utter arrogance and cheek of both the reporter AND the editor! Not to mention the fact that they are both proven WRONG.
Here's the link to the original article, published over two months ago:
Here's the link to some more of the politically biased rubbish they print.
Here's the link to the evidence that there is not, and never was, anything wrong with my health. Here's a link to more evidence of that, and there is even more evidence at the posts after that and the posts after that.
The evidence is overwhelming, and numerous links can be found to it on this site and many others.

Secret Probe of Hutt Mental Health Services:
A secret government inquiry is under way into treatment blunders and leadership problems within Hutt Valley's mental health services.
It's long overdue - lunatics are running the asylum, dangerous and overpaid lunatics like Linda Astor, Brenda Sally Rimkeit, Gary Orr.

Leaked documents show the Health Ministry's mental health director, David Chaplow, ordered the investigation in June, but both the ministry and Hutt Valley District Health Board have kept it under wraps since.
In a letter to then-Hutt Valley chief executive Michael Hundleby, Dr Chaplow said he was ordering the inquiry under section 95 of the Mental Health Act after being made aware of problems with the service.
"There are two main areas of concern – the leadership of the mental health services, and a number of clinical issues presenting as `complaints' involving individual patients, which may, in turn, be related to the leadership issue or to wider systemic issues."
The service has come under fire three times in the past year from Wellington's coroners. The latest was last Tuesday, when coroner Ian Smith released findings into the death of Upper Hutt man Jerry Korewha.
Fi Perez, whose husband Jerome, 40, killed himself in March 2008, welcomed the inquiry. Mrs Perez tried for six months to get help for her husband, a long-time bipolar sufferer, before he died.
She said it was "fabulous" that an inquiry was taking place. "Too many people have died.
"The one thing that has really grated [with] me ... is that the district health board's response each time is that `We have made changes'. Well, Jerome died in 2008 and the next guy died in 2009 ... so that's just rubbish."
The inquiry is being carried out independently by Barry Wilson, a mental health district inspector and lawyer from Auckland. District inspectors are appointed by the Health Ministry to investigate complaints, conduct inquiries and inspect mental health services.
Deputy mental health director Susanna Every-Palmer said the inquiry – which covers the two years from June 2008 – was now well under way and the ministry expected to receive the completed report in a few months.
It was ordered after Wellington's five mental health district inspectors raised concerns, she said. "The clinical [concerns] are similar to those that have been reported in the public domain, such as in coroners' reports."
She would not provide specific details, saying patient privacy needed to be protected, and could not confirm whether the completed report would be made public. Section 95 inquiries were not normally announced publicly, she said.
Before the inquiry was ordered, the district health board insisted it had made improvements to the mental health service, including a major restructuring in late 2009.
Acting chief operating officer Toni Atkinson said the health board viewed the current inquiry as a "quality improvement opportunity" and believed recent changes had addressed historical problems.
"The DHB ... is fully committed to implementing any recommendations."
Dr Every-Palmer said the ministry believed the health board was trying hard and there had been significant management changes already. "However, in June we did have concerns."
Those They Failed
James Barnden, 31, died in 2007 after administrative bungles at Hutt Hospital. The Stokes Valley man went to an appointment at the hospital on June 11. Christine McCarrison, the specialist meant to see him, was unaware of the appointment. Only Andrew Green, a second-year WelTec student working as a trainee, was present. He told the inquest he felt he could not turn Mr Barnden away, so assessed him, noting he had been thinking about suicide. Mr Green did not complete a risk assessment, made a second appointment for June 26 and put the file in his pigeonhole without reporting to Ms McCarrison or Mr Barnden's GP. Two days before the second appointment, Mr Barnden's mother found him dead.
Depressed Lower Hutt man Jerome Perez killed himself in March 2008 after waiting months for a respite placement. The 40-year-old had struggled for years with bipolar disorder. His wife, Fi Perez, begged the health board for about six months to provide him with care and accommodation. When that did not work the pair decided to fake their separation. Mr Perez killed himself three weeks later. His death prompted Wellington coroner Ian Smith to call for improvements to temporary care facilities in the Hutt Valley health district. The DHB admitted that Mr Perez was denied respite care because of a lack of facilities.
Upper Hutt's Jerry Korewha had chronic depression when he was hit on State Highway 2 near Upper Hutt, after smoking marijuana, in March 2009. His death was not found to be suicide, though the possibility existed. A former Mongrel Mob member, Mr Korewha was well known to police and was under post-detention conditions for a drink-driving conviction when he died. As part of those conditions, he was referred to the DHB, which missed his recent history of chronic depression and put him through four alcohol and drug treatment sessions instead. The coroner found the DHB failed to complete a "simple" check, did not follow its own protocols and may have had a management-level breakdown when it misdiagnosed Mr Korewha.
19 January 2011 - The Dominion Post
And two months after this was published, I was incarcerated in the Hotel Rangipapa . . .
And when I filed an application in the High Court for a Judicial Inquiry, with Capital Coast District Health Board as co-respondent with the Attorney General, I was transferred out of the jurisdiction of the CCDHB, to Te Whare Ahuru, Hutt Valley Mental Health Services. I was there for several more weeks, until I reinstated the application, which I discovered had been "discontinued". Shortly thereafter my responsible clinician was changed, to Dr Wolfgang Kure (a professional and enlightened doctor), and I was given leave from the hospital and allowed to go home. A couple of weeks later my status was changed, I am no longer under section 30 of the Mental Health Act, and my official status now is "informal".
I hope Dr Wolfgang Kure can turn the Hutt Valley mental health services around, they have a very bad reputation. They also have a lot of potential, more of the staff openly spoke out against my detention - realising that it was the height of corruption and a total abuse of power. Dr Orr needs to be sacked for gross misconduct like Rimkeit, Short and others!
