This year we have also been in contact with the media. The story should break in the press very soon and we will post any links to the story when it appears.
Churchills, a Karl Goldthorpe run company filed for liquidation last year. Many investors lost money in what has been described by a top city solicitor as "an obvious large scale fraud". This blog is designed to inform other victims and interested parties in the sorry history of this affair. We would also like fellow victims to post their own story, as a comment, so that there is a single site with the whole story presented.

Recent Developments
Over the latter part of last summer we talked to a top city law firm. They immediately indicated an obvious fraud and told us to find out if the directors of Churchills had assets that we could go for in a civil action. Our investigation revealed a trail of asset hiding, and even though Karl Goldthorpe (MD of Churchills) at the time, personally owned, often with other members of his family, seven (!) properties there was no large sum of money we could touch. Civil action did not therefore seem possible. So we began to press for a criminal investigation. Many victims have, and are, giving statements to the Police and Karl Goldthorpe is currently on bail as the investigation proceeds.
