- Distinguishing Features / Details
- He pleaded guilty to rape, assault by penetration, sexual assault and inciting a child to engage in sexual activity. The historic sexual abuse was committed against an eight-year-old girl at his home in Devon following sexual grooming.
The Judge said: "This was systematic abuse of an eight-year-old... there was extensive grooming, as was reflected in your interview where you took the very disturbing position that a girl of that age was capable of consent... I would like to praise the victim for her immense courage in coming forward and I hope that the sentence having been passed, she will be able to get on with her life." - Case Timeline
