In a bizarre email from Detective Chief Inspector Michael Sansbury of West Midlands CID, DCI Sansbury has (so far) refused to investigate a report of Malicious Communications by a known criminal, Darren Hogan.
DCI Sansbury appeared to be acting more as legal representation for Hogan, offering varied excuses and defences for Hogan without pursuing all (or any) reasonable lines of enquiry.
It may be considered unusual for such a senior ranking officer, a Detective Chief Inspector, to be dealing with a crime report of Malicious Communications, raising suspicions why this is being kept away from typical police ranks such as a PC or Sergeant who would more likely arrange an interview to gather evidence.
DCI Sansbury went on to confirm that Darren Hogan has recently been charged with Harassment and Stalking and strangely used this as a means to defend Hogan for his persistent online abuse of a teenage girl.
… I read it as him referring to himself as being the one who was recently charged with stalking and harassment which is true
(my emphasis)
There is no ambiguity in the above comment from DCI Sansbury confirming the serious offences against Hogan is true.
Darren Hogan also stands accused of unlawfully accessing images of a teenage girl from when she was 14-15 years old and distributing them where they were then used on a horrific website, intentionally mixing them amongst sickening adult porn images and making disgraceful comments about the young teen and her father.
DI Sansbury’s solution to such offences is to cover your eyes and do not look. He has advised the victim to block the offender and not visit what he publishes. He does not consider it worthy of stopping offenders (such as Hogan) and thinks the answer is just to ignore them spreading harm.
West Midlands police previously took no action against Hogan, leaving the female victim to fend for herself.
So, by the same logic, if someone was to create a malicious website about DI Michael Sansbury with images of him and malicious accusations against him. Maybe, horrifically labelling him a paedophile, or alternatively, if someone was knowingly spreading false information about DI Sansbury by email, would he still come to the same conclusions?
So far, the young female has been successful in bringing an application for a private prosecution against Darren Hogan. Hogan, of Comet Drive, Wolverhampton, has been summoned to face criminal charges in the Liverpool Magistrates Court in September 2023.
This is from 2011…
Darren Hogan, 25, said he was unaware that the woman was a lesbian and Cardiff crown court heard that his unwanted attention had been particularly distressing for her.
The South Wales Echo reports that the court heard that he had been at a flat and fallen asleep on a sofa.
He awoke to find that everyone else had gone to bed and found two women sleeping in a bed.
He then lay between them and tried to initiate sex with them, despite them being strangers. One of the women woke to find him touching her intimately.
In his defence, Hogan said alcohol had loosened his inhibitions but the court was told that during his trial, he had failed to see what he had done wrong.
He was convicted of assault by penetration in November and been held in custody since.
He has also been ordered to sign the Sex Offenders Register for ten years.
Are all people with name Darren Hogan psychopaths?
Also what happened with register for sexual offenders, violent people… Why they have rights, victims doesn’t?
A father has today been jailed for four years after he burned the cheeks of his three-month-old daughter with a cigarette lighter and put her in a freezing bath which left her suffering from near fatal hypothermia. Darren Hogan, 28, was told by Judge Christopher Tyrer at Aylesbury Crown Court that for the “enormity of his actions” he will also remain a schedule one offender for the rest of his life, meaning that any future involvement he has with children will be monitored by social services. Sentencing Hogan to four years imprisonment and four years extension period on licence, he said: “You have never disclosed, so far as I can see, to anybody precisely what happened when this young child was in your sole care. I have to punish you for what you have done and make you pay so that you expiate the enormity of your actions.” Defence barrister John Lamb said that the two attacks on the baby had been “isolated incidents at a time of great stress and difficulty coping with life.” Hogan’s daughter, he said, suffered no lasting physical damage from her injuries and has now been adopted. Hogan, of Bletchley, Buckinghamshire, pleaded guilty to two counts of child cruelty in October. The court heard from prosecution barrister John Denniss that he applied a heat source – “probably a cigarette lighter” – to the cheeks of his three-month-old baby in or around July 2003. About two months later, he was responsible for causing the same child to suffer from severe hypothermia which was potentially life-threatening, believed to have been caused by putting her in a cold bath. Hogan initially pleaded not guilty and was due to be tried for two offences of grievous bodily harm to the baby at Aylesbury Crown Court in February. But when he failed to appear, a warrant was issued for his arrest and police put an appeal on Crimewatch asking for the public’s help in finding him. He was eventually arrested in Great Yarmouth and sentenced to three months’ imprisonment for absconding by a judge at Aylesbury Crown Court. In October, at the opening of his trial, the charges against him were amended to child cruelty offences under the Children and Young Persons Act and Hogan pleaded guilty to both.
By the way this was nearly 20 years ago.
When will this man be stopped? All the news is always about his attacks on one family!! – what about the other families that don’t get to tell the world what he is doing to them! Police are a waste of time and either can’t or don’t want to stop this snake ?
