Violin Teacher Acquitted in Sexual Assault Case | Manchester News
Description
A former violin instructor in Manchester, Jan Repko, faced serious sexual assault charges after allegedly touching a student during a private lesson in London. Prosecutors claimed the contact was inappropriate, but Repko insisted it was part of a legitimate teaching technique to improve posture and playing. He testified he sought consent twice before proceeding and noted visible improvement in her performance. After a four-hour deliberation, the jury acquitted him of both counts. Repko, dressed formally, nodded to jurors and left the courtroom with a handshake — the case officially closed.
