Former teacher Patricia Robertson, convicted of abusing young girls over fifteen years, receives lenient sentence. Victims express outrage, calling it disgusting and an absolute joke. Robertson, now seventy-seven, was found guilty of cruel and unnatural treatment against girls as young as five at Fornethy House in Scotland. Despite acknowledging her actions were sadistic, the judge imposed a three-year supervision order and a twelve-month restriction of liberty order, with a £1,000 payment to each of her eighteen victims. The sentence has sparked significant anger among victims and advocates.
