Senior JP will Press Charges for Threatening Words

The child’s mother has confirmed that charges will be brought against the woman, including common assault and using threatening words.

 

Voice of: Mother of Student

“The charge was common assault.  The aunt has been charged with common assault since she was the one that followed my son and she was the one that hit him.  I was made to understand that she’s claiming that she did not hit my son, but we do have witnesses that can prove that, yes, she did hit my son.  We also are going to bring the charge of threatening words, all the explicit words that she used, all the insulting words.  My mother-in-law, she’s a senior JP, I know the law was recently amended but that does include her, you know, they can charge her for what she told my mother-in-law.  So we are proceeding with a charge of threatening  words as well.”
