Additional details about trial, social commentary edit
This piece gives what I think is a decent summary of the subject’s life and the social context. In particular, it explains how he managed to receive a relatively lesser charge and lenient sentence. The piece itself isn’t a WP:RS since it’s a self-published newsletter but it does link to 3rd party sources. Ytoyoda (talk) 23:36, 10 May 2021 (UTC)
School edit
Article says he went to Bootham School & I can't check the source. According to p 58 of Stick it up your Punter (Chippindale & Horrie, 1990), it was St Peter's School, York. - Sitush (talk) 00:18, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
