A COUPLE who physically assaulted children in their care at the Haut de la Garenne children’s home in the 1970s and 80s were jailed by the Royal Court this morning.

Morag Jordan was sentenced to nine months’ imprisonment and Anthony Jordan to six months.

The couple, both aged 62, and who worked as house parents at the home at different periods between 1970 and 1984, were found guilty in November of physically assaulting a number of children.
