Letter to editor # whatever . . Man's Lights Punched Out
by Princess
Here is an interesting letter to the editor from the "Berkley Barb" on April 2, 1988.
"Mr. Robert Truesdale, an accountant from Springfield, Missouri, appeared in Berkely Municipal Court last week to respond to a complaint from his daughter, Roberta, on a count of assault and abuse. Mr. Truesdale had spanked his daughter in public for smoking pot on the UC Campus. Mr. Truesdale had come to California to encourage his daughter to enter the University of Missouri where he believed she would be better influenced by the 'right people'. Once she rejected him, he spanked her in what the court determined was beyond the father/daughter disciplinary punishment relationship. Mr. Trusedale is now spending 20 days in the County Jail."
