Title: INDECENT ASSULT
Post by: sooze on Monday 04 July 16 16:57 BST (UK)
Hi
I came across a court record a while back regarding my grandfather Victor Stevens. He was convicted to 6 mths in wormwood scrubs for indecent assault on Nellie Silk. I would like to find out more about the case but cannot seem to find anything.
this is the transcript :

Name:
Victor Stevens

Date of Trial:
7 Sep 1891

Trial Year:
6th sept 1891


Location of Trial:
London, England

Sentence:
Imprisonment

H. Corser - magistrate
North London Police Court

I've tried searching the newspapers but nothing there about it either as far as I can see.

would really appreciate any info anyone can find

regards
susan

Very few London newspapers are online at the moment.

You may have more luck at the local archives for the area he was known to be living in.
