    Imprisonment query

    I've found another bad boy who married into the family. One of his sentences was a cumulative 2 years - 1 year of hard labour followed by a year of R.D. This was 1930s New Zealand. Has anyone any idea what RD stands for?

    Thanks,
    Christine

    Cancel that - just found what it means in a newspaper report - reformative detention.
