A man who sexually abused two six-year-old girls when he was a teenager has been jailed.
Connor Parsons was 14 when he committed sexual offences against the girls in a village near Cirencester.
He also sexually assaulted a 13-year-old girl in 2019, when he was 21.
Parsons, 27, was handed a four-year prison sentence on Monday and was told he must serve at least two thirds of it behind bars.
Speaking after the hearing, Gloucestershire Police's investigating officer in the case said Parsons had targeted the girls and isolated them before committing "heinous" sexual offences.
"Two of the girls were so young they didn't even know or understand what had happened to them until they were much, much older," they added.
Police started investigating Parsons in 2022 after his first two victims separately told school professionals what had happened.
In November 2025, he pleaded guilty to two counts of sexual assault, causing or inciting a girl to engage in sexual activity, and one count of sexual activity with a child.
During the sentencing, victims described feeling violated, and the court heard about the long-lasting impact of the abuse.
The judge stated Parsons had suffered neglect and abuse as a child, but this did not justify his actions.
Parsons received a 10-year restraining order and a 10-year sexual harm prevention order prohibiting contact with girls under 16.
