A COUPLE have each been found guilty of eight charges of assault on children in their care when they worked as house parents at Haut de la Garenne 30 years ago.
Morag Jordan was found not guilty of 28 charges of assault and her husband Anthony Jordan, not guilty of four charges.
The couple, both aged 62 and who live in Scotland, had denied all the charges against them. Seven charges were withdrawn because of lack of evidence.
The Assize jury of six men and six women announced their verdicts in the Royal Court just after 1 pm today, after deliberating for more than eight hours and after a trial lasting seven days.
