Bradwell Child Sexual Abuser
In a case that has shocked the local community, Colin George, a 47-year-old resident of Oakdene Avenue in Bradwell, has been sentenced to over six years in prison for a series of disturbing sexual offenses involving young girls. The incident came to light after police investigations uncovered a pattern of predatory behavior that spanned several years.
According to court records, George pleaded guilty to five counts of causing or inciting a child under the age of 13 to engage in sexual activity. Additionally, he admitted to two charges related to the possession of indecent photographs of children. The court was informed that George’s criminal conduct was not an isolated incident but part of a long-standing sexual interest in minors.
The case was brought to the forefront when police officers executed a search warrant at George’s residence on November 7 of the previous year. During the search, they seized his computer and discovered 23 indecent images, categorized as two in category B and 21 in category C, which are classifications indicating the severity of the material. The police investigation revealed that George had been viewing such indecent images online for more than seven years before his behavior escalated to physical offenses involving young girls.
During police interviews, George admitted to some of the sexual activities involving one of the victims, which confirmed the allegations made by the young girls. The victims later reported the incidents, which involved multiple separate episodes of abuse. The court heard that George’s online activity and sexual interest in children had been ongoing for several years, highlighting a disturbing pattern of predatory behavior.
Despite the overwhelming evidence, George denied a sixth charge of causing or inciting a child under 13 to engage in sexual activity. However, the presiding judge, Paul Glenn, ruled that a verdict of not guilty would be recorded for that particular charge, leaving the other charges to be addressed in sentencing.
In sentencing, Judge Glenn imposed a prison term of six years and four months. Furthermore, George will be subject to an extended license period of five years following his release, during which he will be closely monitored. As part of the court’s measures to prevent further harm, George will also be subject to a sexual harm prevention order. This order restricts his access to the internet and prohibits any contact with his victims, aiming to protect the community and prevent recidivism.
