Daffy, that is one of the saddest things I have read, is there no way of tracing him and bring him to justice ?.

[Arksided]

Sorry Ummmm, I know something awful must have happened to you and also others on here, i do understand. I have seen it first hand, also a innocent victim beaten to within an inch of his life wrongly accused. I'm not saying that Sir Jim is innocent or guilty.

You don't necessarily want to, tony, stirring the hornet's nest and all that. In fact, in my case, three of us went to the Headmaster when the Master (number 2) turned on a friend of mine to shoot photographs of him, naked in the school garages.

He was immediately removed, should have been prosecuted and would have been today. I have no idea where he is, and haven't wanted to know. His replacement lives only a few miles away from where I am down here (by chance) and I haven't see him, as the subject may come up again.....don't really want to know. Talking on here is different as you are at a distance.

The school was in Northern England and is now closed.

Thanks FGT.x
Tony, I wouldn't want to trace him now. I have put it all behind me long ago.

[tonyav]

Right DT, I do get the picture, but I was thinking along the lines that closure could help the victim.

[tonyav]

Ok, daffy. x

[ummmm]

Arksided, no worries x

I'm just trying to explain why his death might have made them come forward. Reading the papers who portrayed him as saintly must have made them sick to the stomach. They're much older now, and can face it.

This is presuming it's true.

[DTCwordfan]

Closure comes other ways, tony, as you learn to rationalise it....in fact, often completely suppress it. Yes you may be right, but then the human mind works in weird ways in managing out of the norm/shocks etc esp when you are young at the time of the attack.

By chance, and nothing to do with JS, I have recently written about it in a tome that I am putting together. To replicate the few paragraphs here would probably see me banned and definitely suspended as its pretty graphic. Very cathartic it was too.

[tonyav]

I do understand I think DT, I know the human mind can play weird tricks.

[DTCwordfan]

well if this thread leads to a little better understanding all around, then there is some benefit that emerges from JS's demise and this issue.
