Fresh attacks on 'assault' teacher's home
THE home of a teacher convicted of assaulting two pupils has been targeted in a fresh vandalism attack.
In the latest incident, windows were smashed on Sunday night. Mike Barile, 51, a maths teacher, was found guilty at Dundee Sheriff Court last month of assaulting two boys in a classroom after they had insulted him. Sheriff Charles Macnair found Mr Barile not guilty of two other assault charges and a fifth charge was not proven.
He was admonished by the sheriff who said that the charges were of a minor nature and would probably not have been brought against him had it not been for the fact he was a teacher.
Three weeks ago, Mr Barile and his wife Moira, of Dundee, had their car tyres slashed, glue poured into locks and eggs thrown at their home.
