Gaslighting
Section 2 of 35: Retaliatory gaslighting campaign and suspected obstruction of justice (2018-Present)
What is gaslighting?
Gaslighting is a form of psychological manipulation where false information is presented to make a person question their own reality, memory, perceptions, and sanity.
Since first attempting to report serious crimes in 2018, I have been the target of a long-term, coordinated gaslighting campaign. Numerous fake identities have been used with the deliberate intent to make me question my own reality.
I have documented over 200 such malicious comments.
The retaliatory campaign
This campaign cannot be dismissed as random trolling.
Its inception directly followed my attempts to seek justice, and its relentless nature suggests a clear motive: to discredit and silence me as a complainant.
This effort extends beyond online comments to include traditional poison pen letters and emails, detailed in Sections 21 and 22.
The scale, duration, and timing of these actions lead me to a grave but unavoidable conclusion: this is a retaliatory operation, one I have strong reason to believe involves the complicity of police officers tasked with investigating the very crimes I reported.
One must question the motivation for such effort if the situation had no merit.
The scale of the response is incongruent with the claim that nothing occurred.
The alarming link
The wanted notice issued by Ammanford and Crosshands Police used the same photos as a defamatory video posted on the web that falsely alleged that I was a paedophile.
This is an alarming link. The same two specific photos appear in both a defamatory video and an official police notice. This suggests a dangerous connection between the malicious campaign against me and formal police action.
Fake identities and anonymous accounts
The gaslighting campaign has utilized numerous fake identities across multiple platforms.
These accounts would appear, engage in coordinated attacks, and then disappear—only to be replaced by new accounts with similar patterns of behavior.
I have documented over 200 malicious comments from these accounts, many containing information that only I and the police would know.
The information known only to me and the police appears repeatedly in these anonymous attacks.
Traditional harassment methods
The gaslighting extends beyond online harassment to include traditional methods:
- Poison pen letters — Anonymous letters containing information only known to me and the police (Section 21)
- Poison pen emails — Emails claiming false arrest warrants and spreading malicious allegations (Section 22)
The question I keep returning to:
Why would anyone invest such coordinated, sustained effort into a campaign against someone who reported disturbing noises?
The scale of the response is incongruent with the claim that nothing occurred.
If the situation were truly innocuous, why the relentless campaign to silence me?
