We represent a client who was sexually assaulted by their teacher, David Williams, whilst a pupil at Edmonton County School.
David Williams abused his position as a Physical Education teacher at this school for several years until 1990, when his employment ended.
Williams was sentenced in December 2023 for indecent assault against a minor.
The culture at the time of the abuse was not to speak out about child abuse. We frequently see survivors who are only able to speak out about the abuse they suffered years after it took place, especially when there has been a period of grooming by a person in a position of trust. We are therefore seeking evidence in support of our client’s case.
