Peter Ellis
Letter to the Editor
by R E Mawson, Mosgiel

Trevor Norton (4.7.03) is of course exactly right when he states that the children in the Christchurch Civic Creche case were abused by everybody involved, except for Peter Ellis and his co-workers.

In their zealous determination to prove their own corrupt theories of child abuse, the authorities involved themselves abused these poor children and their families - abuse which was psychological, rather than sexual, but still abuse. This is what the Royal Commission will prove, and the only question is: do we want to know?
