1 knows. I can probably get your Lordship that information
2 in any event, in due course.
3
4 MR. JUSTICE BELL: I think you mentioned one yesterday who was
5 15.
6
7 MR. RAMPTON: That was Steve Fox, 15. (To the witness): How
8 old was Leah -----
9 A. Sorry, how old was Steve Fox?
10
11 MR. JUSTICE BELL: He was a year younger than you, and you were
12 16 at the time; or you thought he was a year younger?
13 A. Steve Fox was in my grade.
14
15 Q. Who was the person who -----
16 A. That we were talking about yesterday? I do not
17 remember.
18
19 Q. Sorry?
20 A. I do not remember who the person was yesterday that we
21 were talking about.
22
23 MS. STEEL: I think it might have been Nicole Owen.
24
25 THE WITNESS: Yes. Nicole Owen is a year younger than I am.
26
27 MR. JUSTICE BELL: What was her name?
28 A. Nicole Owen.
29
30 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Thank you. I am not encouraging the point
31 about under 18 at all, but if it is to be taken I think
32 I ought to know what age spans we are talking about,
33 because 7-year-olds -- I know that does not apply here --
34 they are under 18, as well; and it might make a difference

38
39 MR. RAMPTON: I have a feeling that I mentioned Steve Fox's age
40 yesterday, but I may be wrong about that. I cannot find it
41 at a quick glance through.
42
43 (To the witness): How old, Miss Inglis, was Leah Wilson,
44 do you remember?
45 A. She was in the same grade as me. But if I can say
46 something, I am born in October, so a lot of them were 17
47 at the time, because I turned 17 during the union drive; so
48 a lot of them were, like, six months older or so.
49
50 Q. Do you know whether Leah Wilson was 16 or 17?
51 A. No, I do not for sure.
52
53 Q. What about Sean Heggie?
54 A. He was, I believe, a year older than I was, or he was
55 the same age as me but he was a year behind in school.
56
57 MR. JUSTICE BELL: But someone in your grade -- do you come into
58 grades, according to your age, at the beginning of the
59 academic year?
60 A. Yes, you do, but some people failed and some people
