BENJAMIN MAGEE SENTENCED TO 18 YEARS IN MANCHESTER FOR SEXUAL ABUSE AND HARASSMENT

Benjamin Magee, born on July 27, 1992, and residing on Shannon Road in Manchester, was formally sentenced to a lengthy prison term of 18 years at Manchester Minshull Crown Court on Wednesday, May 7, 2025.

The court also imposed an indefinite sexual harm prevention order along with a restraining order to prevent any further contact or harassment.

The case against Magee came to light after a victim, whose identity remains protected, approached Greater Manchester Police in August 2023 to report concerns related to sexual abuse.

The victim, accompanied by a friend, visited a police station to seek help and provide details about her ordeal.

Investigations quickly followed, revealing a troubling pattern of behavior by Magee.

It was established that Magee had first met the victim in August 2022, approximately a year prior to the report.

Over the subsequent months, he engaged in a series of manipulative and inappropriate actions.

Magee bought her gifts, took her out for rollerblading sessions, and even asked her to walk his dog in exchange for money.

During these interactions, he also made promises to support her educational pursuits, stating that he would pay for her future studies, which added a layer of emotional manipulation to his misconduct.

The court's decision reflects the severity of Magee’s actions and the impact on the victim.

The sentence and the orders issued aim to protect the community and prevent any further harm from him.

Magee’s case underscores the importance of reporting such incidents and the justice system’s role in addressing sexual misconduct and harassment within the Manchester area.
