Cult Members Jailed for Coroner Kidnap Conspiracy

A group of four individuals, part of an anti-establishment cult known as the 'Federal Postal Court', have been jailed after attempting to kidnap and falsely imprison Essex's senior coroner, Lincoln Brookes. Led by Mark Christopher, who styled himself as 'Chief Judge of England and All Dominions', the group stormed the Chelmsford court with handcuffs in April 2023, accusing Brookes of necromancy. Christopher was sentenced to seven years in prison, while his accomplices, Matthew Martin, Sean Harper, and Shiza Harper, received 30-month sentences each. This bizarre plot was marked by the group's self-conferred judicial powers and communications threatening corporal punishment against Brookes. The incident has left Brookes with lasting psychological trauma despite not being present at the court on the day of the attack. The case highlights the cult's radical beliefs and manipulation under Christopher's leadership.
