PHYLLIS CARTER - CRIME VICTIM - MONTREAL



I am Phyllis Carter, a crime victim, living in Montreal. Everyone speaks of human rights abuses in Burma, China, Russia. But human rights abuses take place in Montreal, Canada, and often it is the police who are responsible for the abuses.

At times in Montreal, social services and court systems are incompetent and/or corrupt as well and they add to the injustices. The news reports several cases where police abuse has caused grave harm and, it seems, the police are never punished for their wrong-doing. Is it just incompetence? Is it corruption? I don't know.

What I do know is that crime victims have no rights. I know that because the police have told me so, and because those who have committed the crimes in my case are still enjoying all the benefits of their ill-gotten gains with impunity. At least they have up to now.

Read about my own experience in Montreal in June 2007.

The following item is an excerpt from a broadcast on PBS.

CHINA

Chinese dissidents thrown into mental hospitals

Wednesday marks the 60th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
Even as the world commemorates the anniversary, there are reports that in China, citizens who challenge the authorities are being thrown into psychiatric hospitals and forcibly medicated. One Chinese citizen claimed he was lashed to a bed, forced to take pills, and given injections that left him numb and woozy.


I am a 72 year old journalist and I have been fighting for justice for twelve years, since I was attacked and robbed in my home with the help of a Montreal Policeman.


Immediately after the robbery, I pleaded with the police again and again for months to investigate and to file my complaint, but they refused again and again and again. The police have found all sorts of reasons to continue ignoring the crimes described in my blog.

In order to intimidate me, discredit me and silence me, the criminals who call themselves "partners in crime" have taken bizarre measures to try to stop me from pursuing this case. In June, 2007, there was hate mail and threatening messages were posted on my blog warning me to drop the case.


The same group made false statements and obtained a court order to have me seized by Montreal Police and taken to hospital for a mental evaluation. As soon as the doctors realized what they had done, I was released unconditionally. The details are reported in this blog.

I will continue to pursue the case until the thieves are tried in criminal court and they return everything they have stolen from me and from my family.

KENNETH PRUD'HOMME + PARTNERS IN CRIME

This is a true Canadian crime story. It all started with a robbery in Montreal in 1996 in which a Montreal Police officer helped the thief. When the police kept refusing to investigate or file a report, I finally turned to the public seeking help.

Following the death of my mother in 2007, the perpetrators who call themselves " Partners in Crime" took some bizarre measures to try to intimidate, discredit and silence me. The story is presented in detail at this site.

Our struggle for justice continues as we contact more and more people and organizations in our quest for justice. We are also seeking a publisher.
