Magistrate (John Draycott)

An unnamed magistrate oversaw legal proceedings against Tom Cunningham for the assault on Esther Bloom. He questioned Esther over the attack. She said that she could not remember what happened as things played out quickly, but she was unarmed when she was struck with the cricket bat.
Tom was next questioned, the young boy profusely apologising to Esther and making clear that he struck out of fear. This prompted Esther to attempt to take the blame, saying that it was her fault for breaking in in the first place. However, the magistrate delivered a guilty verdict based on Tom using excessive force, and sentenced Tom to a supervised youth rehabiliatation order for twelve months.
