Is this fake news? The dailymail site has a GPR product that purportedly shows grave sites at the school with high returns. That is unlikely unless the corpses were buried in metal casks a la military graveyards. GPR will not get a return on an organically decomposed body and only a slight return on a wooden cask.
Very horrible story to even imagine. Discovery ID Channel had a show specifically on that issue last year, I think. Might have been on one of the “A Crime To Remember” episodes, but they have numerous shows that could have presented it.
Definitely written from a point of view.

I would have liked to see much more context, the total number of boys, perhaps testimony from a former guard.
Lots of suppositions about evil deeds by the staff of the place.
It is very difficult to know just what happened after several decades, We can be pretty sure that most of the boys were not stellar citizens.
The article would be more credible if had some information from the other side.
No doubt bad things happened. Very likely crimes were committed. But most of what we are told is supposed, or what people thought might have happened.
