LINCOLN CHILD RAPIST CHRISTOPHER STANTON SENTENCED TO 24 YEARS IN PRISON

In a recent and highly disturbing case originating from Lincoln, a man named Christopher Stanton has been handed down a severe prison sentence of 24 years after being convicted of multiple heinous sex offenses involving minors. Stanton, aged 57 and residing on Station Road in Lincoln, faced a series of serious charges that included six counts of rape and one count of attempted rape, all committed against children under the age of 16.

These criminal acts took place over a span of two years, from 2004 to 2006, but the full extent of Stanton’s offenses only emerged in recent times, leading to his eventual arrest and prosecution. The case was brought before Lincoln Crown Court, where Stanton entered a plea of not guilty to all charges during a hearing held on Friday, December 17. Despite his denial, the jury found him guilty of all the charges after deliberation.

Following his conviction, Stanton was subjected to a series of stringent measures aimed at preventing any future harm. He was issued a lifetime Sexual Harm Prevention Order, which imposes strict restrictions on his behavior and contact with minors. Additionally, Stanton was placed on the Sex Offenders Register indefinitely, ensuring ongoing monitoring and public awareness of his status. To further restrict his ability to reoffend, he was also placed on the barred list, barring him from certain activities and employment that could put children at risk.

This case underscores the importance of vigilant law enforcement and judicial processes in safeguarding vulnerable children from predators like Christopher Stanton. The community in Lincoln can now be assured that justice has been served, and measures are in place to protect the public from this convicted sex offender.
