Coming in from the cold

When I shuttered this blog in late October 2019, I knew that the time leading up to John Paterson’s trial was going to be challenging in many ways. Granted, back then I thought it would be a couple of months, not a year and a half, but still. I knew it wasn’t going to be…

Video share: Recovered memories, true or false?

A few weeks ago, I was approached by Mel Ve—whose name has frequently graced these pages—with an unusual proposition: would I be interested in doing an interview with her on the topic of recovered memories and the people who promote them? Readers may know that Mel and HR have not always been on the best…

Child sex abuse profiteers piggyback on QAnon/Trump link

On Thursday, 11 July, Donald Trump retweeted a sycophantic message from an admirer. This isn’t exactly news: Trump loves it when people say nice things about him, and those who crave a bit of extra Twitter attention will often say things like “BEST PRESIDENT EVAH” to attract his trigger-happy RT finger. Like this: If the…

Video share: The saga of Rupert Quaintance

In today’s video instalment we take a trip down memory lane—it’s been almost two years since Rupert Quaintance was found guilty of stalking Hampstead families, and was sentenced to nine months in Wandworth Prison. We think it’s time to take a fair and balanced look back at the case which preoccupied us all while it…

Video share: All About Angela Power-Disney

Just kidding. Telling everything about Angela would require a couple of full-length documentaries, or perhaps a season’s worth of soap opera episodes (note to self: get on this). So think of this video more as “the story of an outsider who managed to insert herself into the Hampstead SRA hoaxers’ mob, clawing her way to…

John Paterson in court for contempt today

John Paterson, best known for uttering a seemingly endless stream of threats of violence and death toward this blog and anybody he thinks might be associated with it, will be attending the Royal Courts of Justice at 10:30 this morning to face an application for committal for contempt of court. In a video posted yesterday,…

A modest proposal

Yes, yes, you’re right. A couple of weeks ago we said we were going on hiatus, and that we’d be back when there was news of Angela’s legal status. That hasn’t happened yet, so what are we doing posting again so soon? Well, it seemed that even in the absence of regular posts, the after-party…

Video share: How did the Hampstead hoax go viral?

In our continuing video series on the Hampstead SRA hoax, today’s video looks at Sabine McNeill’s role in pushing the videos online, and ensuring that they were eventually seen by more than 4 million people in a month. Guest appearances include Ray Savage and Charlotte Ward…. On the Hoaxtead Research YouTube channel, we’re building a library of…

Video share: Yaohirou audio recording, Part 2

In the second of our two-part look at the Jean-Clement Yaohirou audio recording, we hear Abraham describe how he and Ella decided what the children should be made to say. Abraham demonstrates his obsession with the children “touching each other”, and then seems to become sexually excited as he leads them in chanting, “Kill! Kill!…

Video share: Who is Ella Draper?

Today on the Hoaxtead Research YouTube channel, we look at the truth about Ella Draper, the woman who colluded with Abraham Christie in torturing her two young children in Morocco, forcing them to make false allegations about their father, their classmates, and their community. We discuss Ella’s background, her history with the family courts and…
