	Waikato Times April 27 1998 Indecency trial: Crown recalls two witnesses The Crown will today recall two witnesses to give more evidence in former Hamilton teacher John Timothy Edgar's indecency trial. Judge Lynton Laing has given Crown Prosecutor David Wilson, QC, permission to recall Hukanui Primary School principal Colin Muter and Detective Constable Neil Burgess. They testified in the Hamilton District Court last week but will be recalled to give more evidence about what happened when Edgar was suspended from teaching after a boy alleged he was indecently assaulted by him last November. Edgar, 38, faces seven counts of indecent assault and one of committing an indecent act. He took the stand last week to deny the charges and was backed up by other defence witnesses who described him as a talented, trustworthy teacher. The trial looks set to finish tomorrow. Roger Laybourn appears for Edgar.
