ALEXANDER DAVIDSON FROM ALLOA FACES JAIL OVER SEXUAL MESSAGES TO CHILDREN

In January 2019, a man from Alloa, Alexander Davidson, appeared before Falkirk Sheriff Court to face serious allegations related to his conduct involving minors. The charges against Davidson stem from incidents that occurred between February 1 and March 14 of the previous year, at his residence on McKinlay Crescent in Alloa.

It was alleged that Davidson deliberately sent sexual messages and explicit images to four individuals, all of whom he believed to be young girls aged between 13 and 16. The nature of these communications was highly inappropriate and intended to cause humiliation, distress, or alarm to the recipients. The court documents specify that Davidson's actions were motivated by sexual gratification, and he engaged in these activities on multiple occasions.

One of the charges further detailed that Davidson sent a sexual image to a woman and attempted to persuade her to view another explicit image, adding to the severity of the case. The court was informed that Davidson, aged 55, believed all four recipients were within the teenage age range, which underscores the predatory nature of his actions.

During the hearing, Davidson pleaded guilty to the charges. His sentencing was deferred to allow for the preparation of reports, but Sheriff Caldwell issued a stern warning, emphasizing the gravity of the offences. The sheriff stated, “These are extremely serious offences. Prison is an option when you come back,” indicating the likelihood of a custodial sentence upon sentencing.

Additionally, Davidson, who resides in Hill Park, was ordered to register as a sex offender, a standard procedure in cases involving sexual misconduct with minors. The case was adjourned until February 21, as the court awaited further reports to determine the appropriate sentence for Davidson’s actions.
