Hi
My story in brief.
I was a support worker for a young person (male 15) he has a long history of being a fantasist. He thinks pink the singer stole his lyrics for one of her song, won a Victoria cross and almost on a daily basis attacked staff to initiate a restraint, then would say he was injured and be taken to hospital, or he would pretend to have illness from appendicitis , to heart failure. In the 12 months I worked with him he went to hospital with invented illnesses probably a 100 times and had so many X-rays there was a real worry he would get cancer, he also persistently had crutches or an arm or both arms in casts, he did not need any, but refused to leave the hospital until he got them.
He accused myself once and a colleague of raping him while running around in the community, the police turned up and he told them he didn't know us, we showed our ID and a member from the office came the incident with documentation proving he was in our care, once this young man new the game was up, he banged his own head of a wall infant of the police, pretended to have a fit then spent the next couple of days in hospital with another invented illness.
last summer I was involved in another incident in the community were he said I broke his arm, I hadn't. his arm was already in a brace anyway, but I was still suspended. During the same incident, a colleague was sacked for pushing this young man (his legs was also in a brace, I kid you not) who fell over, but my colleague was getting punched in the face by him and only used minimal force. The house manager is also in an industrial tribunal as a result of this young man, 10 members of staff have left as a result of the handling of this young man, the home has closed and his placement needed as the company could not handle him. I resigned after the police investigation found I did nothing wrong.
Fast forward to 3 weeks ago. knock on my door, social services are knocking on my door to see if I'm abusing my sone, he's 13. The young man in question made another allegation against me of a sexual nature, not fully sure what the details are. last year I was a witness to a crime this young man committed, I carried out a citizens arrest restrained him until the police arrived and gave a statement against him. He eventually plead guilty and the week before he was sentenced made the allegation. Funny that isn't it.
I don't know if I'm being investigated, if social services have closed the case. am I going to even get questioned?
I spoke with one of my old colleagues yesterday who is his case worker and he wrote all the risk assessments and he said it is absolutely in his character to do this crazy allegation stuff. He is not a credible witness, he's made allegations before, and he has a motive to wish to seek revenge, I basically got him arrested.
Am I going mad, as even after all this I still feel like it will go wrong for me.
Please share your thoughts.
Thanks
Chris
P.S there is evidence for all of the above and more (when I say evidence, I mean that prove he is a liar and has motives)
