About
the
Author

Born in London
in 1947 and
educated at the University of Kent and the Inns of Court School of Law.
John was called to the Bar by the Middle
Temple in
July 1979 and appeared in over one thousand court cases in England and New
Zealand.
This former well known and controversial
Barrister and his nephew were arrested in the Botanical Gardens in Wellington
New Zealand in blaze of media frenzy
in July 2002 and falsely charged with attempting to Kidnap one of Wellington’s
leading businessmen.
According
to the New Zealand police John was about to demand millions of dollars for the release of
Mr X. but that was simply not true and in the end the jury did not believe that part of the story.
Their trial in the High Court at Wellington which lasted for seven weeks was by
international standards a travesty of justice.
As a result John spent nearly 5 years in
Rimutaka prison for a crime he did
not commit.
Now free he tells
the full story of what really happened.
