Speaking after Christopher Joyce, 81, and daughter Mary Joyce, 60, were jailed yesterday for forced labour and benefit fraud offences, Adrian Foster warned the case may not be unique, despite its shocking nature.
Quote MessageThey forced him to work very long hours by requiring him to perform menial tasks and manual labour such as collecting scrap metal, cleaning tools and maintenance, for little and sometimes no money and took advantage of his vulnerability and inability to protest in doing so. In effect they treated him like a skivvy.

The health secretary says he thinks Southern Health NHS trust is making progress and trying hard to address difficult issues.
Health secretary Jeremy Hunt
Jeremy Hunt was speaking after the trust's decision to move Katrina Percy to a new role with the same salary was described as a "scandal" by Sara Ryan - the mother of Connor Sparrowhawk who died in the trust's care.
He did say though that, in principle, NHS bosses who show a lack of judgement should not be given new jobs in the NHS on huge pay packets.
Quote MessageI do think they are trying very hard to address some of the issues. There is a new chair now who is very experienced and I do have confidence they are making progress... We need to recognise if someone hasn't done a good job then they need to move on, we can't brush these things under the carpet.

Motherwell winger Marvin Johnson had been chased by U's boss Michael Appleton for weeks, but the Scottish Premier League side only agreed to sell after the 25-year-old handed in a transfer request earlier this week.

David Cameron has stepped into a row over controversial plans to temporarily downgrade a hospital's maternity unit because of a shortage of doctors.
Banbury's Horton General Hospital's service will be midwife-led, rather than consultant-led, from October.
Image source, PAThe former PM said while it could "achieve great things, it won't be able to look after all mothers' needs".
Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust said doctors would be recruited as soon as possible.
Sarah Champion, the MP for Rotherham where two of the families are based, has been speaking about their ordeal.
She said: "It's a great relief that someone has been found, but the families have been waiting now for just over six months.
"If you start thinking about the implications of that, it means they can't have a funeral for their loved ones, they can't grieve, they can't go away, and every time the phone rings they've been wondering if it's the call that their husband has been found."
Image source, PAOxfordshire's coal-fired Didcot A Power Station was turned off in 2013, after 43 years in service.
The site was able to generate 2,000 MW of electricity - enough to meet the needs of two million households - owners RWE Npower said.
The station included six cooling towers, measuring 375ft (114m) in height, which dominated the skyline of the town.
Hundreds of people gathered to watch when three of the towers were demolished in the early hours of 27 July 2014.
Further demolition work continued, with the boiler house collapse in February killing four men, but only one body was recovered until now
RWE Npower was expecting to complete deconstruction of the site by the end of this year.
A gas-burning power station - known as Didcot B - opened in 1997 on the site and continues to operate.
MP for Didcot and Wantage Ed Vaizey said safety had to be paramount in the recovery operation at Didcot.
He described the site as "extremely dangerous and very unstable" and that "any operation to go in and find the bodies would have put the lives of rescue workers at risk".
However, he described the six-month wait as a "terrible saga".
"The news that one body has been found is very sad but at the same time there is a sense of relief because the families can't get closure until the bodies are recovered and brought out, and the wait must have been absolutely agonising for them."

It was in the early hours of this morning that one of the three missing men was taken away from Didcot Power Station where he had lain for more than six months.
The body drove through the big white gates in front of me at 02:30, passing a guard of honour made up of the emergency services and people who work here on the site.
There has been criticism from the families of the missing over the length of time it's taken to recover their loved ones, but the site owner said the rubble was dangerously unstable.
But for one of the families, today will mark the end of an agonising wait for answers and the chance to finally get some closure.
Didcot collapse: Guard of honour as body leaves site
Two bodies are still yet to be located at the site of Didcot A Power Station following yesterday's discovery.
The body of Michael Collings, 53, from Brotton, Teesside, was previously recovered from the Didcot Power Station site in February.
The building was due for demolition when it partially collapsed.
The remaining section was brought down using explosives in July (pictured above). Searches were halted in May when contractors reached a 50m (164ft) exclusion zone, beyond which it was considered too dangerous to continue.
The families of the three missing men had opposed plans to use explosives for the demolition.
