NORWICH SEX OFFENDER CHARLES ADCOCK JAILED FOR 14 YEARS
Charles Adcock, 60, formerly of Mile Cross, Norwich, was bailed by police in May 2015, on a string of sex charges but was not arrested until May, this year, when he was caught out by city council workers.In an impact statement read in court, the victim told how the sex abuse at the hands of Adcock had blighted her life and the fact he had gone on the run for years had only added to her torment.
Adcock admitted rape of a child and a string of sex assaults on the same girl, which started when she was seven and also admitted inciting the victim to engage in sexual activity.
Adcock also admitted possession of indecent photos of a child, possession of one prohibited image and possession of one extreme pornographic image on May 26, 2015.
Jailing him for 14 years, Judge Katharine Moore told Adcock: "Your offending has had a devastating effect on the victim worsened by the fact you absconded for some four years." He was also placed on the sex offender's register for life.
