Secret Courts, an Update



Quick link to an article in today's Daily Mail about a recent and most disturbing secret court case.  If the Mail has gotten it right, a father was imprisoned for merely sending a public Facebook message to his grown up son, with whom he lived, wishing him a happy birthday.  This is in the UK by the way, not....., well actually I don't know of a country where identifying your children as your own is illegal.  To quote one of the apt comments beneath the article; 'How deep do we have to fall down the rabbit hole before we awake and realise we're in wonderland?'

Here's an exert: 

'A father has been jailed at a secret court hearing for sending a Facebook message to his grown-up son on his 21st birthday.

Garry Johnson, 46, breached a draconian gagging order which stops him publicly naming his son, Sam, whom he has brought up and who still lives with him. 

In a case which is certain to fuel concerns about Britain’s shadowy network of secret courts, a judge sent the former music executive to prison for contempt at a closed-doors family court hearing in Essex at the beginning of last month.

He was not arrested by police or even represented by a lawyer.'
