Flogging death at Hounslow leads to inquest verdict
Inquest into Frederick John White’s death after severe flogging by 7th Hussars at Cavalry Barracks Hounslow reveals repeated knotting of the cat o nine tails and absence of clear rules. Col Whyte and officers testify they lacked formal instructions and legal framework governing flogging. Coroner and jury condemn such practices and urge abolition of flogging in the military.
