Charles Spencer states that this young “ravenous pedophile” had “sex” with some schoolboys from Maidwell Hall. “Every quarter she chose one of us to share her bed,” he explains. “And she added me to the second rank of her victims: those whose intimacy she touched…” A trauma which left a lasting mark on him and forced him to begin therapy at the dawn of his forties, and revelations which pushed the English police to open a criminal investigation.
Investigation which, according to Daily Mailhas just expanded to include another former student, who also revealed that he was abused during his boarding school years. Our colleagues also reveal that a 67-year-old woman, living in Stanford, was arrested last June, but it appears that she was not charged.
“Normal and acceptable” practices
At the time of Charles Spencer’s revelations, Maidwell Hall reacted by saying “Sorry”. “It is difficult to learn about practices that, unfortunately, were sometimes considered normal and acceptable at the time. Today, almost every aspect of school life has evolved significantly since the 1970s. children and the promotion of their well-being are at the heart of these changes”she assured, encouraging anyone who had this same experience to testify.
