Revision as of 10:13, 21 March 2017
Phillip Brown is a prison officer at HMP Wakefield from 1990 - 2002. In 1995, Robert Montork was admitted to the prison. He was over 6 foot tall with a flat angular face and was built like a barge. Shortly after Robert arrived at the prison, Ivan Ilich attacked him, but Robert easily deflected the attack and dislocated his shoulder. Robert was shipped off to F-wing, and Dave Harrington, another prisoner, started spreading rumours that he'd escaped and killed guards.
In 1998 the government set up Close Supervision Centres, the CSC, and the F-wing quickly became one: the inmates there were kept in clinically clean and empty rooms and kept under extremely close supervision. Phillip was asking to join the unit. Those in CSC were treated poorly to keep them in line.
In 2001 Robert's daughter started to visit him, presumably just turning 18. In late March 2002, he had his only other visitor: a man in his late fifties with a well tailored black suit who looked like he might be blind. The two of them stared at each other with a fierce hatred, before the lightbulb blew out. Phillip heard the man whisper "you didn't think you could kill it for long, did you?". Later Phillip found Robert weeping in his cell.
In the next few months the prison had problems with the plumbing, with brackish water coming out of the taps, as well as lights randomly going out. On November 1st 2002 the lights went out, he and Pete, his colleague in CSC, went to check on the inmates. In Robert's cell they found inpenetrable pitch darkness which thier lights could not illuminate. There was a wet sound of wet tearing coming from the cell. As Phillip stepped into the cell his torch went out. He heard Pete scrabbling to find him, before saying "there you are", but he had grabbed something else. There was a low growl, Pete screamed and Phillip heard him fall to the floor. Suddenly the lights came back on and Pete was on the floor unharmed. They found Robert dead from stab wounds in his cell.
Phillip was blamed for Robert's death due to 'gross incompetence' and was fired. Pete resigned 2 hours after the lights came back on.
Post-Statement Follow-Up
Tim was not able to find out much information on Peter Gordo, but Sasha found the 2002 visitor logs for Wakefield, which identified the man who visited Robert as Maxwell Rayner.
Martin was able to track down Phillip: Caroline Brody, his wife, left him in 2004 when he became steadily more abusive and started to abuse alcohol. He sent a letter from Waterford in Ireland asking for forgiveness, but she did not reply.
