Let's remember: this is an alleged assault. The allegations are from a person of, well, er, it's Ozzie.

Yes, you are right. Maybe you have forgotten, I said that in my initial post on the thread.

And I'm afraid to imagine what I might do if I was in an enclosed space with Ozzie for any length of time,

Even so, I wouldn't expect you to resort to physical violence.

How about the credentials of the alleged knifer? I take it he has a university degree. I think that should be essential for foreign teachers employed by Chinese universities. Please analyse his resume and inform us about that. You have already analysed Professor Ozzie's online resume. I feel you should do likewise regarding the American's online resume.
