UK Police Investigate Alleged S3xual Abuse At Princess Diana’s Brother School

United Kingdom Police on Monday said that a probe had been launched into claims by Princess Diana’s younger brother of s3xual abuse at the boarding school he attended in the 1970s.

In a memoir released earlier this year, Charles Spencer recounted the difficulties he faced at the Maidwell Hall school, including claims of having been sexually abused and beaten.

Police in Northamptonshire, Central England, confirmed that they had launched a criminal investigation into “allegations of non-recent sexual abuse” at the school, which Spencer attended from age eight to 13.

“The move comes after the Force conducted preliminary enquiries into allegations of abuse that are said to have taken place in the 1970s at Maidwell Hall School earlier in the year,” Northamptonshire Police said in a statement, adding that the investigation was in its “early stages.”

In the memoir, “A Very Private School”, Spencer, now 60, recounted that sexual abuse and beatings at the school left him with lifelong “demons”.

The school said after the book came out in March that it was “very sobering” to read about the experiences of Spencer and others at the time.

“We are sorry that this was their experience. It is difficult to read about practices which were, sadly, sometimes believed to be normal and acceptable at that time,” it added.
