Jon Styler: Payout 'recognition of what I've been through'
Eight men allegedly abused by a head teacher thought to be one of Wales' most prolific paedophiles have received £140,000 in settlements.
Jon Styler is said to have abused boys in schools in Newport and Worcestershire in the 1970s and 1980s.
He killed himself in Newport in 2007, having strongly denied the allegations.
Newport council has agreed out-of-court settlements with the men, with no admission of liability, but said it could not comment further.
BBC Wales' Jordan Davies spoke to one man who received compensation - his identity has been protected.
