Description

In 1953, Lizzie Thomas was brutally attacked in her home in Laugharne. George Roberts, who was Deaf, communicated through his own personal signs and didn’t read or write, was charged on an alleged ‘confession’. He was later acquitted at trial. This careful examination of the story highlights how a vulnerable man and woman were wronged by a system which undervalued, misunderstood and failed them.
