Racial Incident on London bus; Woman named

 
Vandell Brooks


The Black lady, who was seen racially abusing white commuters on a London bus, has now been named by police as 35 year old Vandell Brooks of Kingsland Road Hackney. She has been charged with racially/religiously aggravated harassment/alarm/distress by words/writing (contrary to Section 31(1)(c) and (5) of the crime and disorder act 1998.

With the jurisdiction of the Central Criminal Court, she has been unconditionally bailed to appear at Thames Magistrates Court on 23rd of November this year.

All of the mainstream media appear to have lost interest in the case, unlike those of Emma West and Jacqueline Woodhouse .

Black activist and Respect candidate for Croydon North, Lee Jasper came to Vandell’s defence on Twitter claiming “black people in the UK cannot be racist”



UPDATE

I phoned Thames Magistrates Court yesterday (Friday 23rd Nov 2012) and was told the Vandell Brooks had failed to appear and a warrant has been issued for her arrest, without bail.


UPDATE 2

On 12th January 2013 Vandell Brooks was found guilty of Racially/Religiously Motivated Harassment and Failing to Appear.
The trial was kept secret by the police who refused to give out details until after the court case.
She was sentenced to 7 days prison and a £200 fine.


Jacqueline Woodhouse was given 21 weeks for a less aggressive outburst, assumable because she is White.

CPS claims of death threats called into question



The Police are only investigating one threat against Emma West, despite the Crown Persecution Service claiming there have been a number of threats. When asked about the investigation into death threats to Emma, D.I. Paul Kerr of Croydon Borough Violent Crime Team said “So far I have had around 30 complaints in relation to one particular posting. This is the posting that is currently under investigation.” D.I. Kerr wouldn’t say if this had been reported by the CPS.
It would appear that the CPS felt the threats were serious enough to be the only reason for remanding Emma, but didn’t consider them serious enough to report them to the Police.
Fortunately Emma has now been released on bail by the Crown Court, to spend Christmas with her family.
The local media have been entirely one sided in the reporting of this story. The Croydon Advertiser reported on the case and completely failed to mention the fact that she was remanded for her own safety, due to alleged death threats and even condemned several groups for supporting her. The Advertiser has never questioned what happened to start the confrontation or why ethnic’s don’t get arrested for similar or worse on public transport.
In contrast, Viktor Kovacs a man accused of masturbating outside a school, in view of children, stood smugly in the dock with a bag that had an anti-CCTV slogan on it. He was bailed to appear at Croydon Crown Court on 20th January next year with the only condition that he doesn’t go within 50m of St Philomena’s Catholic High School for Girls or Pound Street, Carshalton, with no mention of other schools, parks or places with children. This happened in the same court on the same day as Emma West was remanded yet none of the local papers reported the story. They clearly see swearing on a Tram as worse the paedophilia.
