"Two Accusd of Murdering Joseph Borg Given Remand," Windsor Star. February 24, 1943. Page 3. --- Preliminary Hearing Set For March 3 --- Kisielewski, Ogrodowski Hear Charge Read in Brief Court Appearance ---- Bruno (Barney) Kisielewski, 21, and Stephan (Steve) Alexander Ogrodowski, 25, both of Detroit, were formally charged in city police court this morning with the murder last October 2 of Joseph (Guiseppe) Borg, proprietor of the Windsor White Spot Lunch, 714 Wyandotte street east.

As soon as the murder charge had been read against each man, Crown Attorney James S. Allan, K.C., informed Magistrate J. A. Hanrahan that he was asking for one week's remand.

HEARING MARCH 3 The accused men will be brought back to city police court March 3 he for a preliminary hearing to decide whether a prima facie case has been established against them. If the evidence given at this hearing shows, in the opinion of the court, that a prima facie case has been established, the men will be committed for trial at the high court assizes in county court next May.

No plea will be asked for or accepted at the preliminary hearing.

Kisielewski and Ogrodowski were arrested by Detroit detectives over last week-end. Details of the arrest have not been revealed by the police, but it is known that circulars have been out for Ogrodowski since shortly after the murder was committed.

FIRST SUSPECTED Inspector E. C. Gurnet, one of the senior officers of the Criminal investigation Branch of the Ontario n Provincial Police, working with Detective Sergeant James Yokom, of the Windsor police force, threw the first gleam of suspicion on Ogrodowski within a few days after the murder was committed.

The day after Bork was killed a gun was found under a Pitt street east front porch. Within 24 hours after that Sergeant Yokom had the gun identified by the ballistics department of the Detroit police as the one which killed Borg.

The gun was further identified that same day as having been stolen from a barroom of West Jefferson avenue, Detroit, about three weeks prior to the murder.

Inspector Gurnet then discovered, police say, that the same day the gun was missing. Ogrodowski, who had been employed at the barroom, quit working there. A search for him at his home or in his haunts proved fruitless. After some debate, Inspector Gurnet succeeded in having a police circular for Ogrodowski sent out to police departments both in the United States and Canada.

CONFESSION REPORTED Last Friday Detroit detectives picked up Ogrodowski. He is said byDetroit police to have confessed being implicated in the holdup-murder and to have named Kisielewski as the slayer.

Both men waived extradition before a Detroit judge yesterday afternoon and were brought to the Windsor police station. They will be kept in Essex County Jail until their preliminary hearing.

The murder charge was laid against each man by Chief Claude Renaud.

Crown Attorney James S. Allan, K.C., pointed out today that in spite of anything said by Detroit newspapers concerning alleged confessions from either man, Canadian law requires that the men be questioned again.

"If Detroit police have obtained confessions," said Mr. Allan, "they may be of no use to us unless the procedure in obtaining them agrees with that laid out by Canadian law. Murder is such a serious charge that we cannot take anything for granted. These men are suspects, and suspects only, as far as we are concerned."

The BBC is expected to investigate whether enforcement of the licence fee discriminates against women, after figures showed that more than three quarters of those convicted of evasion were female.

The corporation has agreed to carry out and publish a “gender disparity review” after a single mother from Essex who faced prosecution for failing to pay her TV licence threatened a judicial review of the system on the basis of sex discrimination. Women made up 76 per cent of the 52,376 people convicted in 2020 for TV licence evasion.

The mother, 32, who does not want to be named, said: “I felt that they target people who are helpless, such as single mums, and that this needed to be challenged. I did this to stop other women being targeted unfairly, and so that they can see if there is discrimination.”

Last year, after a public consultation, the government shelved plans to decriminalise non-payment of the fee but said that this would remain “under active consideration”. Last month it confirmed that the fee would be frozen at £159 for two years. Nadine Dorries, the culture secretary, has told The Times: “I am deeply concerned that so many women are being disproportionately saddled with the stress and anxiety of facing criminal charges for non-payment of the licence fee.”

Licence fee evasion was the most common offence for which women were convicted in 2019, Ministry of Justice data shows. It accounted for 30 per cent of all female convictions in England and Wales, and 4 per cent of male convictions. The main reason, according to the ministry, is that women are more likely to be home and therefore open the door when an inspector calls.

The woman in Essex contacted Appeal, a charity that opposes miscarriages of justice, which argued that it was not in the public interest to charge her for the offence. TV Licensing agreed and withdrew the charges. However, she felt that the system was unfair, and so the Public Law Project told the BBC of its plan to pursue a judicial review.

“Criminalising people for debt is Dickensian [and] regressive,” Tara Casey, a women’s justice caseworker at Appeal, said. “All the women we have assisted in their criminal cases against TV Licensing have been vulnerable: some are single mothers, some have medical problems.”

Officials from TV Licensing, which the BBC outsources to the company Capita, visited the woman at her home in Essex during the November 2020 lockdown. The woman, born in Rwanda, came to the UK in 2015 and had just moved into a home on her own for the first time with her daughter, then aged ten months. She admitted that she was not yet on top of her household bills so signed up for PayPoint, which allows people to pay for the TV Licence in cash or on a debit card, in shops such as newsagents and supermarkets.

However, as she wanted to minimise trips out during the pandemic to protect her health, she tried to switch to a direct debit and believed an email from TV Licensing confirmed this. Last February she realised that the payments had not been made and got in touch with TV Licensing. The day before TV Licensing received the first payment, her case was authorised for prosecution and she was charged with non-payment in March. When she called TV Licensing’s helpline, staff insisted that she had to attend court. “I was so scared. I felt completely helpless,” she said. “I was a single mum, in the pandemic, living by myself with a baby . . . I made tiny mistakes but I tried to correct them and I co-operated from the beginning. I feel like I wasn’t treated with respect, either because I was a woman or because I didn’t speak good enough English.”

The BBC, which published a previous gender disparity report in 2017, said that it had considered her legal claim unfounded but agreed to conduct an internal review. She has now dropped plans to push for a judicial review.

TV Licensing said: “The 2017 report found the disparity was due largely to societal factors but we took steps to counter any disparity where possible by introducing better monitoring, increased levels of transparency over the prosecution policy and more engagement with women’s organisations.”

The inequality between the sexes when it comes to licence fee evasion convictions is a further motivation for those who say that the offence should not be criminal (Jonathan Ames writes).

The subject came to prominence a year ago, when ministers gave their views after a public consultation on decriminalisation. The consultation had attracted responses from about 42,700 individuals, more than 80 organisations and another 111,700 from a joint contribution from the campaign groups 38 Degrees, We Own It and the Taxpayers’ Alliance. Individual responses were split 19,200 to 17,600 against decriminalisation.

In recent years there has been considerable concern that the law unfairly affects women and the poor. The Centre for Criminal Appeals, a justice charity, has pointed out that in 2019 evasion made up 30 per cent of all prosecutions against women, compared with 4 per cent against men. That year Naima Sakande, an advocate at the charity, said that “the burden of a struggling BBC in the age of many competing television streaming services must not be borne by women and vulnerable members of society”.

In January last year the government kicked the topic of decriminalisation down the road and said that it wanted to assess several factors. They included “whether an alternative, non-criminal enforcement scheme is fairer and more proportionate” as well as its cost. The government said that it would also assess the potential overall impact of decriminalisation on licence fee collection.

A father has described his rage and sense of powerlessness when staff at an NHS mental health unit made false accusations against him.

Richard faced a string of allegations including sexual abuse, sexual harassment and domestic violence.

He was accused of "secret trysts" with his daughter and inappropriately touching her.

Official paperwork, passed between agencies, also identified him as a risk to his wife along with an accusation of making a pass at a male member of staff at the St Aubyn Centre in Colchester.

He was exonerated and eventually provided with an apology and compensation.

A report by the Local Government and Social Care Ombudsman criticised the unit along with two other organisations.

Richard says "the whole thing was a joke, but these people were really serious".

The centre, which is run by the Essex Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust (EPUT), has recently resumed admitting new patients after they were suspended by the Care Quality Commission when inspectors found young people there had come to harm.

The events which engulfed Richard and his family took place in 2016.

Sophie, his eldest daughter, was admitted to the St Aubyn Centre in February 2015, aged 14, after stays in a number of other units.

She had a severe form of obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), an eating disorder and had been diagnosed with treatment-resistant depression.

She was then sectioned under the Mental Health Act, after she developed what were termed distressing ritualistic behaviours.

"[She] was extremely, extremely ill, crying and screaming a lot," said her father.

'Malice - without any doubt'

On one day in January 2016 she had been repeatedly tube-fed by staff at the centre while pinned down on her back, despite her vomiting almost continuously.

The family were subsequently notified by the local environmental health team that she had a salmonella infection.

That evening she was admitted to Colchester General Hospital.

A few weeks later during her stay there, Sophie said she was physically assaulted by a carer from the St Aubyn Centre after a confrontation over moving a water jug, which was related to her OCD.

Shortly after the family complained, allegations against the father were made by a senior member of staff at the centre, in the form of a safeguarding referral.

According to Richard "there was malice - without any doubt".

'Runaway train'

The referral was to the Multi Agency Safeguarding Hub - a group of professionals from designated organisations who gather and act on child protection information..

"It was like a runaway train, it was just gathering momentum," is how Richard's wife, Cathy, described it.

The form, seen by the BBC, contained an allegation that Richard had made "a sexual pass towards a male member of staff".

The document also recorded that staff at the St Aubyn Centre witnessed Richard inappropriately touching his daughter and that the family may have been "sabotaging treatment plans".

Eight different boxes were ticked indicating a range of harms including sexual abuse, a concealed pregnancy and domestic violence.

It also requested an investigation into "potential abuse" by Richard and "potentially mum" on Sophie's younger sister Jane.

The Ombudsman's report detailed how Colchester General had previously undertaken a pregnancy test on Jane, without her consent and despite her being just 14 at the time, after she developed abdominal problems.

The family believed this was due to the previous insinuations of sexual contact between father and daughter, based on hospital staff misinterpreting their closeness.

This information ended up in her notes and the safeguarding form.

'Sick in the car'

The parents were summoned to a child protection conference organised by Suffolk County Council's Children and Young People department.

Richard was advised to leave the family home by the county council, which he did.

"I can remember going to that meeting and literally being sick in the car," said Richard.

They were provided with reports from the social worker, the police and the hospital just 15 minutes beforehand, contravening the council's own policies.

But at the conference the St Aubyn side "changed its mind and presented a completely different view" according to the Ombudsman's findings.

The police could find no evidence of domestic violence or that the parents had interfered with their daughter's health plan.

It was also pointed out that the parents could not have been guilty of neglect because their daughter had been in the care of the mental health trust and the hospital.

A parenting assessment carried out by a social worker and presented to the meeting concluded there was "no evidence [Richard] had behaved inappropriately within a sexual context" with his daughter.

He was told he could return home.

The investigation by the Local Government and Social Care Ombudsman criticised the mental health trust, Colchester General Hospital and Suffolk County Council, finding "fault with injustice" with all three organisations.

All three accepted the Ombudsman's findings and paid several thousand pounds in compensation to the family.

The family's experiences were among a litany of failures by EPUT and its predecessor organisations.

In June, the trust was fined £1.5m for safety failings in relation to the deaths of 11 patients between 2004 and 2015.

Then in September 2021, the two wards at the St Aubyn Centre and another adolescent unit operated by the trust were stopped from admitting new patients after inspectors found "serious concerns".

They have since reopened for new admissions.

NHS mental health services in Essex, including EPUT, are now at the centre of an inquiry into deaths of inpatients under their care over a 20-year period.

Paul Scott, chief executive of EPUT, said: "We fully accepted the findings of the Ombudsman's report following its publication, and would like to offer our apologies again to the family involved.

"A number of actions have been taken to improve our safeguarding processes, including the development of clear referral pathways, the introduction of dedicated safeguarding professionals within our Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services, and increased safeguarding supervision and training for staff."

Both Suffolk County Council and the East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust, which runs Colchester General Hospital, also apologised to the family following the Ombudsman's report but told the BBC they did not wish to comment further.

'Destructive and wasteful'

Sophie is now back at home after obtaining what the family described as much more definitive treatment elsewhere.

She said: "Some of the things these professionals said, what my family was doing to me, which were completely untrue, makes me feel physically sick."

"I think we are evidence of 'what doesn't kill you makes you stronger'," said Cathy.

Her husband is still angry: "If you want to know what this did, it taught me hate, that's what it did.

"I hate them. I hate all of the institutions that we were involved with in that period.

"And that is a destructive and wasteful emotion."

No Monsters in Me - Chapter 1 (blur detectives! au)

Summary: October 31st. A call from Scotland Yard interrupts a silently night in a small police station between Essex and London. Four detectives answer the solicitation and dive into the vanishing of a farmworker. The case got more disturbing when the investigators found a dead body totally melted and carbonised, but with his clothes intact.

Genre: Mystery, horror, thriller.

Word count: 1549 words (chapter 1)

Warnings: This story contains graphic descriptions of violence and death. Not recommended if you’re underage or have triggers to these subjects.

A/N: Hello! As a huge fan of detective and mystery stories, I decided to write my first Blur fanfiction in an alternative universe where Blur members’ are investigators. This story is based on a true event that happened in 1994 in a small city called Pedro de Toledo, in Brazil (www). This is my first story written completely in English, so I’m sorry if I did any mistakes. Hope you like it!

 [I] 

The call ended abruptly.

— Alex, we need to go. - Damon uttered, removing his leather jacket from the wood coat hanger. — Prepare to go while I tell Graham and Dave.

— Why? - Alexander inquired. His dark eyes didn’t even get up from the masculine magazine he read so attentively. — What so serious happened for all four to leave at the same time?

— The Scotland Yard superintendent called. A farmer in Brentwood said his farm caretaker vanished and his animals are dead.

— Oh. - the man said, realising a long pause to swallow his cigarette. — Tell the farmer to hire a worker that feeds his animals and not flee with prostitutes. Case solved.

Damon studied James for some minutes and desired to be unconcerned like him. Alexander graduated with honours from the London Police Academy. He was an expert shooter, despite not showing his abilities in public. The tall and slim man had a typical celebrity charm and attractive extroversion that gave him success between the women from the London-Essex boundary.

— We'll leave in ten minutes, inspector. - Damon limited his speaking, walking into the interiors of the small delegacy.

After walking through an empty corridor, the sergeant arrived in the small room where Graham Coxon was. A rock song surpassed the sound of the thick raindrops falling out at night.

Coxon was a skilful forensic investigator. Despite starting his career a few years ago, he demonstrated an emphasis compared to his workmates. Mostly known for his sharp analysis capacity and the precision of his investigative methods, Graham was brilliant but retiring. Yet Damon, Dave and surprisingly Alex were the only ones capable of starting a friendship with him.

— Graham? - Damon called him, reclining into the door frame.

— Yes, sergeant? - the lad emerged behind a big shelf full of books.

— No formalities, please. - Albarn outlined a rapid smile. — A farmer relates the death of his animals and the vanishing of his home-keeping in Brentwood borders. Let's go over there and verify what happened. We'll leave in ten minutes.

— Alright. I'll dress my coat and take my bag.

When Damon turned around, the figure of Dave suddenly appeared in his front. The gingered-hair man sipped a steamy drink that Damon judged be tea.

— Dave, what a fright! Oh, you caught me off guard!

— Sorry, sergeant. - Rowntree gave a smile between the sips. — Something happened?

— We're going to check an occurrence in the York-Shepherd Farm in Brentwood. 

— A farm caretaker vanished?

— How do you know?

— I heard you talking to Graham. - the scribe put his free hand in the trousers pocket.

— I hope the man just drank too much and locked the farmer out of his house. But, anyway, let's realise our work.

— Certainly, sergeant. I'll get ready.

Albarn watched David leave in silent steps. Rowntree was the older between the four and his family served the United Kingdom Police for decades. He chose to follow the administrative area and realised the bureaucratic work like no one. Practical, organised and, above everything, loyal: Damon knew he could count on Dave on any occasion.

Alex was the last man to enter the vehicle with his gun and distinctive, wearing a heavy overcoat. Rowntree was the driver and Albarn was impatient in the passengers' seat. Coxon and James shared the rear seats.

The car started running through the rain, cutting the dark streets of Essex. The storm only seemed to increase.

— Tell us, Damon, the details about the case. - Alexander broke the silence instituted in the group. — By the way, what's the name of the farm?

— York-Shepherd. - Damon answered, running the hand through his blonde hair. — The owner's name is Roger Shepherd. He hired a man to take care of the farm while he was on a business trip. Roger came back from Surrey and found some of his animals dead in the estate entrance. The worker vanished and the farmhouse is locked.

— Let's do this: - Alex delineated a smile with the corner of his lips. — I bet this is something serious. This farm caretaker was a scammer and escape with some money. Or he's drunk in the farmhouse with some woman. If I'm right, you three are owing me a drink after the expedient. If I'm wrong, I'll pay for your drinks.

— This is a serious thing... - Graham mumbled, straightening his glasses.

— I remembered something. - Dave passed straight to a semaphore. The urban landscape became more sparse while the first rural properties appeared progressively. — The York-Shepherd farm already staged a vanishing case. If this man disappeared, maybe we're dealing with something cyclical.

— How do you know this? - Alex questioned.

— I know a lot of things. - Dave answered with his neutral voice tone.

— I'm starting to feel something very strange in this. - Damon muttered, fixing his blue eyes on the horizon.

[II]

The investigators faced a crooked dark way that lead to the entrance of the York-Shepherd Farm. Damon and Graham shared a brolly; Alexander and Dave divided the other. At the end of the path, an ajar gate, whose creak filled the air, indicated they should follow to the property interior.

A putrid smell invaded their noses. Coxon's eyes immediately fixed in dozens of dead chickens spread by the farm's entrance, dispersed in the sludgy route, shed under the twisted trees and in the sparse lawn.

The group accelerated the steps.

Roger Shepherd was waiting for the detectives not too far from the entrance, shrunken into a heavy grey overcoat. His hectic hands were crumpling a checkered beret and the few hair strands he had were dishevelled, trembling according to the wind.

— Detectives! Oh, finally you arrived. - Roger shouted, walking towards the four. David readily gave his umbrella to protect the man from the precipitation.

— Mr Shepherd, sorry for our delay. - Damon articulated, extending his hand and receiving an energic and quick greeting. — This is Graham, the forensic investigator, David, the scribe and Alex, the inspector.

— I'm ashamed for my manners, lads, but I think I saw something inside the house. You need to see this. - Roger pointed to the house.

The old Shepherd started an anxious walk in large steps to the farmhouse. The construction followed an antique gothic design and was raised imperiously in front of a small and dark lake. Built on two floors involved in shadow and fog, the York-Shepherd house provoked discomfort in Damon. The more the sergeant studied the building, its cracks and stains on the wall, the more the thorns of affliction pierced his chest.

The elderly stopped by the side of a lancet window, peeked inside, realised several nods with his head, sighed and walked away. With a pale face and perplexed eyes, told:

— Look, sergeant! Look at this! I refuse to believe that is he! Poor Ravenswood!

Albarn approached step by step, half-closing his blue eyes to look at what was inside. He glanced at the interiors searching for what disturbed Roger Shepherd in that way. When he found it, an instant node formed in his throat.

— Alex, enter. - the sergeant mumbled to the inspector. James nodded, taking out the weapon from its holster. — Mr Shepherd, keep your distance, please.

Alexander pointed his gun to the door lock. A well-calculated shot ripped the air and hit the latch, causing a metallic noise that mixed with the sound of the rain. Two kicks were necessary to open the door, revealing a dim and silent hall.

— Dave, write Roger's testimonial and call Scotland Yard for reinforcements. Graham, don't enter the house in any hypothesis until we verify if all the rooms are empty. - Damon said, looking at Coxon for some moments. Removing his revolver from the case, Damon followed Alex and entered the farmhouse.

James held a lantern above his gun, partially illuminating the hallway. The house was full of patterned carpets and mysterious paintings, confusing and creating illusions in the scatterbrained eyes. The people portrayed in the pictures seemed to observe the sergeant and his inspector entering the house, the painted eyes following their careful steps.

Alexander and Damon parted ways when a bifurcation made the large corridor follow opposite sides. Pursuing the right track, the sergeant came across two half-open doors: one led him to a piano room and the other was a space full of bookshelves. Both were empty, but something captured the sergeant's attention: the windows of the two rooms were blocked with thick wooden slats.

— Oi, Damon! Come and see this! - James' voice echoed far away.

Albarn followed Alex's voice in fast steps. He met the inspector in the last room of the left corridor. The light beams from the lantern pointed in the direction of something that made Damon's stomach turn over: a dead man's body completely carbonised and tense was on the centre of the chamber.

Alex and Damon looked at each other.

— Shit. - James cursed. — I lost three beers.

Builders Help To Obtain Planning Permission

As your family grows, you will need extra space to accommodate all and enjoy a more prominent family space. Extending your home is a project that requires adequate planning, and you will need a contractor's expert guide to make it successful. However, all home extensions must comply with building regulations, which refer to structural stability, including the roof structures, foundation, beams, etc. Although you would want to build the extension yourself due to factors such as budget, it is essential to consider professionals in big projects. It would help involve structural engineers calculations as these drawings will be part of the building regulation application. Steadfast builders, who serve East London and Essex, help in ensuring that you get the planning application and permission at ease.

Builders Project Manage

Finding a builder to manage your project will depend on your budget, the type of extension you are building, and a route that fits you. It would help if you got reputable builders depending on previous works done. They should be certified and insured professionals. Most times, you will get reviews online on the best contractors. Contact them and get to know about their experience, skills, and workload at that particular moment. If you are in Stratford, Essex, or even Purfleet, you can contact Steadfast Builders as they have reliable, thorough, and fast builders.

It is mandatory first to remember that you need a contract with your chosen builder and the required paperwork showing your preferred design before starting any extension works. This ensures that you are on track and also helps plan according to your budget.

Using expert guides from Builders such as Steadfast, in the Essex and East London areas will help you ensure that they have gained planning permission, especially with large extensions and certified by the local planning authority. Different planning rules do apply depending on the type of house you plan to extend.

It is also the work of contractors to take care of the orderings of all materials needed for the project. They will advise on the best materials according to your budget. They will also manage the different trade experts through the project, from plumbers and electricians to decorators.

Builders

Ensure Extensions Meet Building Regs

Various regulations need to be considered before doing an extension to your home. For example, if you live in a terraced house, you need to talk to their neighbors and the contractors early enough before starting the process to ensure that no problems occur later while building.

Other building regulations that Builders ensure during extension projects include:

Energy efficiency ensures that the building is well insulated and heat doesn't leak out as it has good air-tightness.

Structural integrity for an extension that will require foundations.

Fire protection ensures that building materials are not readily flammable and that there is a safe way from the home to the external area in case of any fires.

Gas and electric safety for an extension that needs new systems.

Building companies have builders who will help ensure that all building regulations have been adhered to before any works have started. Building regulation approvals are done by a local authority inspector or passed through the Local Authority Building Control (LABC). A government-approved private building company such as Steadfast has an approved inspector who can do the approval.

Steadfast Builders are a perfect company for you if you plan to build an extension for your home. Call them on 01702 217 483!

Blueprint for Murder

Kemi Adeyoola

On June 28 2006, 18-year-old Kemi Adeyoola, daughter of a multi millionaire, was sentenced to the murder of an elderly woman after an incriminating 'blueprint' was discovered. The blueprint was written during her stint in a young offenders institution. The plan? A truly 'fiendish' crime, brutally stabbing 84 year old Anne Mendel 14 times. She was convicted at the Old Bailey yesterday and sentenced today to a recommended minimum of a least 20 years behind bars.

No one could understand why this twisted teen targeted elderly Anne Mendel, they were neighbours for a short time in North London. On first meeting Anne Mendel the first thing that you'd notice would be her size, at around 7 stone and barely 4 foot 10 she was a small woman who had spent her whole life helping others.

Kemi Adeyoola was her complete opposite. She was working at the time as a £500 a night prostitute and had served time for shoplifting. The 'blueprint for murder' that she was later found to have written while she was in a young offenders' institution was over 18 pages long, and detailed her plan to make £3 million by killing a 'wealthy, quite elderly and defenceless' victim.

The blueprint was actually discovered in her cell while she was still in the institution, but all that was done to protect te outside world was the creation of a council monitoring team to supervise her for three months after her release. But unfortunately psychiatrists decided that Kemi wasn't a risk to the public and tragically less than a month after the supervision ended, Anne Mendel was dead.

81 year old Leonard Mendel, Anne's husband, found Anne Mendel wearing blood soaked pyjamas and pink dressing gown, with a pile of clothes thrown on top of her.

Kemi who is the daughter of a property tycoon worth around £10 million, faces a life sentence. After this verdict those closely following the case stated that they believed that she was 'born to kill' and that she was a 'supremely arrogant phschopath with a total disregard for humanity'.

Kemi has since been disowned by her father Bola Adeyoola, he stated:

'Nobody is born evil but what she did was evil. She is no longer my daughter. I will never see her again, and don't want her anywhere near me. I regret the day I ever met her mother. When I saw Mrs Mendel's picture I started crying. As a Christian, I can't believe anyone would do that.'

Mr Adeyoola, a 49 year old former boxer who lived in a £2 million Berkshire home with his latest wife, had previously given his daughter free accommodation in the home as well as a £140 a week job.

Discussing this he said, 'She was staying with me until a month before the murder, when I found out she had been shoplifting. I do wonder wether this woman would still be alive if I hadn't kicked her out. At first I couldn't accept that somebody with my blood in her veins could do this to anyone - but then I saw the evidence. She should rot in hell.'

His marriage to Kemi's mother Mercuria lasted barely 4 years, and he had very little contact during the upbringing of his three children. Mercuria also has a fourth child from a different relationship.

She and her children moved to a succession of homes in places including Cheltenham and Peterborough, frequently alienating neighbours. While staying in one specific property in Gloucestershire, Kemi reportedly killed the goldfish in a neighbour's pond and blamed it on a cat.

The teenage killer briefly boarded at £23,000-a-year Wycliffe College. The independent school at Stonehouse in the Cotswolds prides itself on its academic and sporting achievements, but Kemi only lasted a few months because of a row over who was paying her fees.

The family then moved to Elmcroft Road in Golders Green for several months, living next to Mr and Mrs Mendel.

The elderly couple had been married for 50 years and lived a quiet, rewarding life. They had two children, and 14 grandchildren and great grandchildren.

Their son Yitzhak appealed for help after his mother's murder said 'My mother spent every day of her week performing good deeds and charity work. She devoted her whole life to visiting the sick, helping friends and neighbours and bringing a smile to everyone she knew - even complete strangers.'

In her youth Anne Mendel had worked as a hospital secretary and joined the Army during the Second World War, helping to track German bombers blitzing the East End of London.

While living beside Anne Mendel, Kemi locked herself out of her home and was quickly allowed into Anne's home. Anne Mendel did this despite the fact that neighbours reported Kemi subjecting residents nearby to a 'reign of terror'. Reportedly abusing young children, harassing neighbours due to their race and even smearing excrement on windows.

A resident who wanted to remain anonymous stated, "She gave a lot of trouble to one particular family. Once she lay in wait for the man, an Asian, behind a bush and punched him in the face, breaking his nose. She called his wife a "Paki lover". He said she tried to poison his dog as well.' Kemi was later arrested for this.

Other neighbours recall Mr Adeyoola sometimes turning up in his Rolls Royce to see his children, but the visits were brief and infrequent.

Kemi pretty much ignored her and by the time that she was 15 she had already fallen into bad habits. She was stealing frequently from high Street stores. She told the jury when in court that it was a skill and explained how she became adept at changing receipts to get refunds for these stolen goods.

However her arrogance outweighed her skill it seems, as after a string of convictions found herself finally facing a custodial sentence.

Her self-obsession continued and she reportedly talked to one of her siblings bragging about her acting talents when she was questioned by a youth worker. She said that she wept, mumbled and arched her back in an attempt to convince her of her 'innocence and vulnerability' to try and get herself a shorter sentence.

'It worked such a treat I could tell she was touched,' she wrote. 'I felt she sensed my anguish.'

However, her arrogance once again got in her way and she ended up at Bulwood Hall young offenders' institute in Essex for 3 months.

This young offenders institute is where she would craft her devious plan.

Her blueprint was discovered during a routine cell search, it was titled Prison and After - Making Life Again and included a shopping list and logged in detail her plan to kill dismember and dispose of a victim in pursuit of £3 million. The shopping list consisted of sharp knives or butchers knives, guns, drugs and handcuffs.

She imagined several different scenarios including stalking an elderly woman in a wealthy area, posing as a student carrying out a questionnaire.

'Run lightly and silently behind her and cover her mouth with a gloved hand,' she wrote. 'Make her so scared she co-operates. Keep calm, composed and silent. She must co-operate or take a knife to her throat. Tell her, "This is your only warning... With your butcher's knife, remove her head. Wrap it in film to contain bleeding, detach limbs one by one.'

When these writings were discovered she told her psychiatrists and prison staff that her notes were part of the draft of a novel. And incredibly, they believed her. The psychiatric assessment carried out after the document was discovered claimed that it 'did not indicate any concern that Miss Adeyoola would be pre-disposed in any way to this type of violence - nor was there any evidence of this type of violence in her past'. It described her as a 'highly intelligent and sophisticated young person . . . who with good support should make a good recovery and engage in her A level studies.' Kemi told a psychiatrist that she had accused 4 grade A GCSE's which they believed and said they felt it was a shame that she had been arrested.

However after her release in November 2004,1 education wasn't even on her radar. She moved into a flat with another teenager, telling the court that her job as an 'escort' easily paid for her £800 a month flat. She claimed that 'It is a completely legitimate and professional business. We earned up to £5,000 a week.'

In March 2005 her first month without any supervision at an end, Kemi turned her words into action.

Mr Mendel left the home for just an hour to pick up the plane tickets for their upcoming trip to Israel, and within this hour, Anne Mendel was dead. Kemi attacked the elderly woman in her home, inflicting deep wounds to the victims torso, right arm and blade with a blade that was proven to be at least 1 inch wide and 5 inches long.

A spokesman for the Barnet Youth Offending Team said: 'There was nothing in the file that would have predicted homicide. The psychiatric report did not predict any likely occurrence of this.'

Kemi appeared at her trial dressed in a pinstriped suit pink trainers and spangly belt, and she reportedly seemed completely unmoved by her crime. She was smiling and actually exchanging text messages during court recesses.

She lied to the police over the nature of the DNA evidence that had been found on Anne's body, claiming that she had actually visited the pensioner the day before the murder and that the elderly woman has scratched her hand as she helped her across the road.

Kemi then used a 16 year old girl, who can't be named, to try and construct herself an alibi for her brutal crime.

Detective Chief Inspector Steve Morris called her 'a callous and devious young woman', adding: 'Her cold, calculated use of extreme violence beggars belief.'

The police investigating the case believe that Kemi never intended to stop there. In fact, they believe that Anne Mendel may simply have been a 'dry run' before targeting a wealthier victim. Detective Sergeant Paul Belsham said: 'If she had got away with this then God knows what she might have done. She is very very dangerous.'

Mr Mendel, who has moved to Israel to live with his daughter, described his wife as someone 'whose life was taken up with kindness and giving up of herself to others The unjust end she met, having so much taken away in such an undeserving manner, left us in total shock.'

“Severe Sentences Levied At Border By Justice Raney,” Toronto Globe. October 29, 1930. Page 19. ----- ‘Gunmen and Gangsters’ Learn That Laws Must Not Be Flouted --- ARMED THUG IS MENACE --- (Special Despatch to The Globe.) Windsor, Oct. 28. - Seven men who were found guilty at the Sandwich sittings of the Supreme Court were sentenced to long terms in the Ontario Penitentiary at Portsmouth by Justice W. E. Raney this afternoon.

Charles Zenkauscas, 26 years old, convicted of stealing jewelry, bric-a-bric, and clothing from the Puce summer cottage of Dr. E. L. Giffen, Detroit, dentist, was sentenced to 14 years for this offense, seven years for possessing firearms with intent to commit bodily harm. Zenkauscas has a long prison record and is wanted in Waterbury, Conn., his home city, for bank robbery.

Albert Kurtinitis of Detroit, convicted of smuggling firearms into the Essex County jail to Zenkauscas, and Fred Robinet and Clarence Jacobs, both of Tecumseh, who were arrested in the house where Zenkauscas had the stolen property, were each sentence to serve seven years.

Twenty Years Thomas St. Clair [or Sinclair], 29 years old, and William McCrea, 30 years old, who held up the Government beer warehouse in Windsor, taking approximately $3,000 from the manager, were sentenced for the robbery, and also for retaining stolen money. St. Clair was sentenced to serve 20 years on the first charge and 10 years on the second. McCrea was sentenced to serve 15 years on the first charge and 10 years on the second. The sentences are to run concurrently.

Kenneth Threselton, 26 years old, of Windsor, was sentenced to serve 10 years for the theft of a radio, and for shooting at an officer while trying to escape.

Justice Raney characterized all these as ‘gunmen and gangsters’ and said the severe penalties were not given in a spirit of retaliation, but rather for the protection of society. He added that all of them were headed for the gallows had they not been restrained.

Manslaughter Sentence. Joseph Martin, 26 years old, of George Street, Amherstburg, charged with murder was convicted of manslaughter, and sentenced to 10 years. He was arrested for the slaying of Clarence Dolman, 19 years old, of Windsor, who died from a stab wound in the abdomen, caused by Martin. Dolman interfered on behalf of Martin’s sister when she was being beaten by her brother and another man, and in the scuffle, Martin inflicted the fatal injury.

[AL: Charles Zenkauskas (#1922) had been in penitentiary before in the States. He worked in the tailor shop at Kingston Penitentiary, and walked the ‘chalk line’ in the penitentiary. He was prominent in his shop, along with Cecil Irving, in being opposed to the growing resentment and organizing for a demonstration. Indeed, he refused to go along - “it was a foolish thing...a dangerous thing” made worse by the fact that the officers “did not handle things well.” Indeed, he though the Deputy Warden was like an “old women” who needed to be “a little more strict.” He felt that most of the officers complained about by the other convicts were not accurate - “you will find that the fellows who get the most marks and dockets are the fellows who are in trouble where ever they go.” He knew that getting through prison meant that “fellows who behave themselves get treated all right.” For all that, he was shot at during the last day of the riot, while hiding in a cell on the 4th tier - with two inmates who were considered ringleaders of the disturbance, men he claimed wanted to harm him. After the riot he was moved to the carpentry shop and continued to work and keep his head down. He was moved back to Tailor Shop #2 in 1935, and was interviewed by the Inspector of Penitentiaries in 1939 - he complained about the bad equipment and poor organization of the industries. He was released in late 1939. Albert Kurtinitis (#1923) was a first timer in penitentiary. He worked in the Paint Shop. He supported all the demands of the rioters in 1932. He was a reported a dozen times for various kinds of talking, gambling, idling his time, and so forth. He was released early and deported in June 1935 back to the United States. He and Zenkauskas were both Lithuanian immigrants to the States. Clarence Jacobs (#1977) appealed his sentence but that appeal was denied and he arrived at Kingston Penitentiary in late November 1930. He worked first in the barber shop then in the bakery. He was a first timer in penitentiary, though he had served in county jails. He went along with the riot in 1932 but had no specific complaints or demands. He was released in April 1936. Fred Robinet (#1936) did not appeal his sentence. He worked in the Tailor Shop at Kingston Penitentiary along with Zenkauskas, but was much interested in supporting the convict revolt in 1932-1933. He thought the shaving system was bad, the lack of exercise terrible, and the education system poorly organized - it had no up to date school books, and he failed his French and algebra courses because his school books did not arrive until after the test. He was transferred to Collin’s Bay Penitentiary in early 1933, but was returned in mid-1934 to Kingston for a disciplinary issue. He was released in May 1935.  Thomas Sinclair (#1920) had been in prison before, in Detroit and at Leavenworth Federal Penitentiary. He felt that problems in prisons originate from the same problems - the spy system and stool pigeons, churches that teach “nothing but bunk from the day you come in and come out” and a lack of trust and self-direction. He worked in the Carpentry shop at Kingston Penitentiary, and thought the conditions were poor there, with bad equipment. He was written up for disobedience a few times, including several times in church and once on a false report due to disagreeing with the Warden. He was implicated in an escape attempt in August 1931, with McCrea and several other inmates - Deputy Warden Walsh believed he cut his finger on purpose to avoid participating. After the riot, Sinclair felt that if the new administration kept its word on penal reform, “the boys would keep theirs.” In 1935 he was one of a group of inmates transferred to the North-West Cell Block, a minimum security section where he worked in the vocational shop there. Interestingly, he was implicated several times, in 1937. 37 and 1939 in organizing or supporting strikes and protests against the prison - in 1939 he was accused of asking other inmates during yard time “thumbs up or thumbs down” on the strike. He denied his role naturally. He was released in July 1943. William McCrea (#1921) had been in Kingston Penitentiary before, released in 1929 on a five year sentence. He felt that last bit “had taken the fight out of me” and was utterly hopeless starting his second sentence: “I don’t ever expect to get out of here....the only thing to do is beat the game or hang.” McCrea was put in the Blacksmith shop, with Murray Kirkland and Alfred Garceau, other prisoners soon to be influential in prison affairs. With Garceau and Kirkland, McCrea hatched an escape plan. The incompetent staff instructor ignored their fashioning of knives and hammers for breaking locks, and the five men came up with a rather ambitious or foolhardy plan to start a mutiny, knowing how hated the penitentiary was, and in the confusion, rush the front gate with their weapons. Even more fantastically, they were to time the demonstration with the visit of a fuel truck - they intended to ram it into the front gate to cause an explosion. They were ratted out by several inmates, including #1977 Jacobs, all of whom genuinely thought they’d get killed during the attempt. He was kept in solitary for several months, where he suffered a cold, was not tried, and claimed other men were beaten - he considered these punishments to be “degrading.” He became influenced by his time meeting the Communists in Kingston, and came down on the side of a demonstration to get change in the penitentiary. He played a crucial role during the riot of October 1932 - he operated the blowtorch to allow the men out of the shop, and used it free other prisoners. He also took a role in stopping some of the younger inmates “who throw out their chests and be big men” from blowing up or damaging the generators. Indeed, he was made a spokesman by other inmates and maintained some influence into 1933 as a member of the inmate committee. In the investigation after the riot, McCrea supported the demands for magazines, recreation, news “from the outside, not on the grapevine,” inmate pay, segregation of the young boy prisoners, and the removal of corporal punishment from the hands of the warden. McCrea was one of the inmates put on trial for his role in the riot, and along with Willard Milich #2077 he tried to canvas the other inmates for financial assistance - this was denied by the authorities, but eventually it was allowed and about 100 men put forward some of their savings to support those men on trial. He was given 18 months for riotous destruction of property. He continued to be somewhat influential and geared towards agitating until early 1934. McCrea was eventually transferred to the Carpentry shop, and then was transferred to Saskatchewan Penitentiary in 1938. Both Threselton (#1924) and Martin (#1925) were kept at Kingston Penitentiary until about mid-1932, and were then transferred to Collin’s Bay. Threselton was paroled in 1936 and Martin in 1934.]

***

On Wednesday 10 September 1889, at 5:15am, Police Constable William Pennett found the headless and legless torso of an unidentified woman under a railway arch at Pinchin Street, Whitechapel. The body, heavily decomposed, was covered by an old chemise that was 37in. in length, common material, and stitched, but certainly not by an experienced needlewoman. It had evidently been home-made by a poor person.

Immediately, the PC summoned assistance and when Inspector Charles Pinhorn, H Division, arrived shortly after 5:30am two constables were already there.

As an instance of the organisation of the police in the district since the recent Whitechapel murders, a special telegraphic signal had been arranged by which the fact of such a crime as the present one could be promptly conveyed to other police-stations. Shortly before six o'clock on Tuesday morning Scotland-yard received this message: "Whitechapel again"; and in the space of a few minutes they were able to telegraph all over the metropolitan police district the following message: "At 5.40 a.m. trunk of a woman found under the arches in Pinchin-street, E. Age about 40. Height, 5 ft. 3 in.; hair dark brown. No clothing, except chemise very much torn and bloodstained. Both elbows discoloured, as if from habitual leaning on them. Post-mortem marks around waist, apparently caused by a rope." Immediately upon the circulation of this telegram, the Thames Police, under Detective-Inspector Regan, and Chief-Inspector Henry Moore, displayed the utmost vigilance. Assisted by Sergeants Moore, Francis, Howard, Davis, and Scott, these officers at once got their various craft on the river and boarded all the vessels at the mouth of the Thames and in the Docks. The operation of searching these vessels had not concluded until a late hour in the evening, and so far as the investigation had gone the captains of the various vessels were able to give satisfactory accounts as to their crews.

A little before 6:00 am, Doctor Percy John Clark (or Clarke) was summoned. In this presence, the body was lifted on to an ambulance and taken to the St. George's mortuary by constables. He there re-examined the body: it was “that of a woman of stoutish build, dark complexion, about 5ft. 3in. in height, and between 30 and 40 years of age”. Both legs had been skilfully separated, and none of the abdominal organs were missing. He also thought that “the body had been dead at least 24 hours” but could had also been taken place some four days previously. Doctor George Bagster Phillips, the Divisional Surgeon, first examined the body at 6:00am the day the remains were found.

In the meantime communications, giving full particulars, were sent to Scotland-yard, and the Chief Commissioner James Monro, the Chief Constable of the district Colonel Bolton James Alfred Monsell, Superintendent Donald Sutherland Swanson, Detective Inspector Miller, Superintendent Thomas Arnold of the H Division, and local Inspector Edmund John James Reid all visited the scene of the discovery and made inquiries as to the matter. Later investigations by Sergeants William Thick and Stephen White along with Sergeant George Godley came across some bloodstained clothing in Batty Street (just off Commercial Street in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets), but little or nothing was made of it.

Later in the day Detective Inspector John Bennett Tonbridge, who had charge of Elizabeth Jackson’s case a short time ago, went to the mortuary and saw the remains. Mr. Clarke, the City Police surgeon Dr. Gordon Brown, and two other medical gentlemen who have had experience in previous cases of this nature shortly after made a more careful examination of the remains. It was noticed that the trunk displayed green patches; the flesh otherwise was white. The doctors, from their investigations, concluded that the cuts and wounds had been inflicted in a left-hand manner. The cut severing the head from the body was skilfully done, there being no hacking or clumsy dissection noticeable. Furthermore, a saw had been used to sever the bones in such a way as to leave no doubt that the person responsible for the dismemberment possessed a good knowledge of anatomy. There were no signs about the hands which would indicate that the woman had been used to hard work, and so far as could be seen there had been no attempt to obliterate a mark on one of the fingers, apparently caused by a ring. It was believed from certain indications that the deceased had never been a mother, but she might have been pregnant. The body was well-nourished and cared for.

In consequence of the similarity of the mode of dismemberment pursued in this case and those of the recent Elizabeth Jackson and Rainham mysteries; the officers engaged in those cases were consulted, and their general opinion was that the resemblance in the cases were very remarkable.

The next morning, Friday 11 September 1889, Dr. Phillips further examined the body in the presence of Dr. Brown and Dr. Charles A. Hibberd (or Hebbert). Dr Phillips was particularly reticent, even to the police authorities, as to the precise result of his examination of the trunk, but it was stated that the cause of death had not yet been thoroughly established. Both Dr Clark, Dr Phillips assistant, and Dr. Hibberd gave the height of the Pinchin victim as 5ft 3in (160 cm).

Three men were arrested, including Michael Keating and Richard Hawke, who were found sleeping under nearby arches. They were later cleared of the crime.

The estimated date of death was given as September 8, 1889, the one-year anniversary of Annie Chapman's murder; a fact which did not escape Chief Commissioner Monro's seven page report that was forwarded to the Home Office. Monro then went on to explain that, "...This street is close to Berner Street which was the scene of one of the previous Whitechapel murders [that of Elizabeth Stride]. It is not a very narrow street, but is lonely at night, & is patrolled every half hour by a constable on beat. The arch where the body was found abuts on the pavement. The constable discovered the body some what after 20 minutes past five on the morning of Tuesday [10th September 1889]...He is positive that when he passed the spot about five the body was not there...It may therefore be assumed that the body was placed where it was found some time between 5 & 5.30 am...Although the body was placed in the arch on Tuesday morning, the murder - (and although there is not yet before me proof of the cause of death, I assume that there has been a murder) was not committed there nor then. There was almost no blood in the arch, and the state of the body itself showed that death took place about 36 hours or more previously. This, then enables me to say that the woman was made away with probably on Sunday night, the 8th September. This was the date on which one of the previous Whitechapel murders [that of Annie Chapman] was committed ...". Monro entered into a detailed comparison of this murder with the previous Whitechapel atrocities in the case of the Pinchin Street victim, there was nothing to show that death was caused by the throat having been cut., in this latest case there was no mutilation "other than dismemberment". Previous victims had suffered evisceration, but the Pinchin Street victim most certainly hadn't. In several of the previous cases there had been removal of certain parts of the body, whereas with the Pinchin Street victim "There is no removal of any portion of the organs of generation or intestines..." . The killing of the Pinchin Street victim had may committed indoors, "...probably in the lodging of the murderer...", Monro went on to stress that "...there is no sign of frenzied mutilation of the body [as in Mary Jane Kelly's case, also committed indoors], but of deliberate & skilful dismemberment with a view to removal...". Monro then went on to point out that "These are all very striking departures from the practice of the Whitechapel murderer, and if the body had been found elsewhere that in Whitechapel the supposition that death had been caused by the Ripper would probably not have been entertained..." In conclusion, Monro stated that, " I am inclined to the belief that, taking one thing with another, this is not the work of the Whitechapel murderer...".

An interesting extract from the London edition of the ‘New York Herald' claimed that a man named John Cleary informed the night editor on the night of September 7 that there was a murder in Back Church Lane (from which runs Pinchin Street). Later, a statement was taken from a John Arnold, a newsvendor of Charing Cross, saying he was John Cleary. He continued to say that after leaving the King Lud pub, he had been told by a soldier in Fleet Street, "Hurry up with your papers. Another horrible murder in Backchurch Lane." He then went to the Herald to share his findings. The soldier he described as between 35 and 36 years of age, 5ft 6ins, fair complexion and moustache, and he carried a parcel. No one by this description was ever taken into custody concerning the murder.

Several names soon arose in the press as the identity of the woman, but they found later being alive and the identity of the body was never identified.

On Wednesday morning September 11th 1889, the Inquest was opened at the St. George's Vestry Hall, Cable-street, St-George's-in-the-East, Mr. Wynne Edwin Baxter opened the inquiry. Detective-Inspector Reid and Inspector Moore, of the Criminal Investigation Department, watched the case on behalf of the Chief Commissioner of Police.

The ‘Northern Daily Telegraph', on Monday, September 16th, 1889, published: “What may prove an important discovery in connection with the recent murder in Whitechapel was made on Saturday night. A fireman named Etherden was standing on a floating fire-station near Charing Cross, when he noticed something floating by. On reaching, he found that it was a brown paper parcel, which contained a chemise covered with blood. The parcel was handed over to the police at Scotland Yard...”.

The second and last day of the Inquest was Tuesday, September 24th, 1889. The jury at once returned the now familiar verdict of "Wilful murder against some person or persons unknown."

On 5th October 1889 the remains were laid to rest in the East London Cemetery, Grange park, Plaistow, Essex, in the public grave no. 16185 – 45 square, received from the St. George Mortuary. The remains were sealed in a tin container and preserved in spirits. The tin container was then enclosed in a black wooden box. The metal plate that adorned the case in which they were interred carried the simple inscription, "This case contains the body of a woman (unknown) found in Pinchin Street St Georges-in-the-East 10th Septr./89". This public grave had later been re-used and is not longer extant.

OnlyFans blurs boundaries as lockdown demand fuels success

Tim Stokely, Founder and Managing Director of OnlyFans, had his sights set on a career as a home inspector before launching what has arguably become the world's most popular social media platform.

"I think it was the growing popularity of girl channels on TV," the 37-year-old said of his decision a decade ago to start working for himself in the modeling world. glamour.

Stokely's first three businesses, born in Essex - adult performance sites GlamGirls and Customs4U, as well as a platform that connects people to merchants - have never grown bigger than OnlyFans, the start -up of five years that took global subscriptions from 20m to 120m during the pandemic.

The platform where sex workers, celebrities and influencers charge fans for photos, videos and personalized content grew its trading volume by 615% to £1.7bn last year, making it one of the fastest growing technology companies in the UK.

OnlyFans is rapidly becoming mainstream in the music and influencer industry, with rappers Cardi B and Bhad Bhabie uploading content and Madonna announcing last month to Instagram followers that she was considering streaming a concert on the platform. But critics say the site is getting more people to consider sex work.

Katrin Tiidenberg, a sociologist at the University of Tallinn who studies online sexual culture, said the idea of ​​sexy self-expression on the web has always led to "this kind of pearly 'think about children' worry. She argued that people were posting and sending nude photos long before OnlyFans, which she said made it easier to monetize content.

"All we're talking about is the changing labor market, the future of work, and creative work," Tiidenberg said. "Why isn't that part of the conversation when it clearly is?" »
