Teacher who gave one stroke cleared in assault case

 

A lawyer defending a teacher accused of assault and battery told a court, “You may think it is a disgraceful misuse of justice that because a naughty little boy gets one stroke of the cane on his backside the machinery of this court is set in motion and this man is brought into the dock.” – This from 1952.

As published in the Leicester Evening Mail, 3 October 1952.
