William John Tudor, 55, of Clemenstone, Cowbridge, Vale of Glamorgan, the butcher who supplied schools with meat infected with E. coli O157, was given a 12-month prison sentence today after admitting six counts of placing unsafe food on the market and one count of failing, as proprietor of a business, to protect food against the risk of contamination.
The outbreak killed five-year-old Mason Jones, a pupil of Deri Primary School, near Bargoed.
