My son leave with his mum in Brixton and come to visit me in Bromley. The original plan was for his mum to drive with him to their home. But on their way he receive a call for an extra shift so they stop at Kent house station to print his weekly ticket (from Brixton to London Terminal). Because he didn't want to be late, instead of carrying on with his mother he saw the train coming and he took it.
At Victoria station where his ticket was valid, the gate reject it. he was them approach by a revenue inspector who check his ticket and ask him were he started his journey. He lie and said Brixton Station. The inspector told him that is not possible because the ticket was printed at Kent house 1 min before the train arrive and it would have been impossible for him to drive to Brixton and catch the same train.
He them come clean and admitted that he started his journey at Kent house. The inspector ask for his detail (this is where the stupid part start) He gave part of his name mixed with another name his friend use to call him. The inspector them ask why the name is different from the one on the rail photo card, and request to see an ID. He provided his job ID which have only part of his legal name, and explain to the inspector that hi have a long name that is why he can only write part of it. The name on the rail photo card is the name his friend use to call him not his legal name. I don't know how but he manage to convince the inspector with a mix of part of his legal name and the name his friend use to call him. He gave his actual date of birth and his work phone number. when the inspector ask for his address he gave our previous address (where we use to leaving together). The inspector ask him to explain why he have a ticket stating at Brixton, when he is leaving somewhere else and print his ticket from another station. To be honest I don't know how he explain that because event to me that doesn't make sense. to cut the story short, he said he explain itself to the inspector who took a picture of his rail photo card and his weekly ticket. He also took his statement, gave him back his photo card, kept his weekly ticket and issue him and MG11. on the MG11 the name there is not my son name legal , it is his date birth and we are not leaving at that address anymore.
I don't know what should he do from now. I turn 20 last week and I am worry about any criminal charge against him.
Thanks for help this is urgent and please don't judge my parenting or his mum
