I’ve seen a victim kept in cahoots, but never a shed. Thank you, thank you, the circle is complete
I remember reading about this when the man was found, the suggestion being he’d been kidnapped back in the seventies. I’m glad to hear justice has been served and he’s getting the care he now needs.
Glad to see that the victim is getting all the care and support that they need. This case was horrifying.
> on occasion, he paid the man he had known for many years “less than his minimum entitlement”
That’s one way of describing keeping someone as a slave I suppose
How can some people be so lacking in empathy for their fellow humans
This is the kind of case where civil forfeiture should really be a thing. Liquidate all his assets and give the money to the victim.
Seems like he’s owed about 40 years of back pay, plus interest, and any penalties appropriate for the dismal housing. Should be interesting, I’m guessing he’s getting the house now.
Travellers sites/farm work seems to be where this sort of slavery takes place. 40 years. I just cannot imagine. I wonder if he was family of some sort as they don’t mention any
