 |  Red Rose Database

Limavady Child Sexual Abuser
In October 2010, a man from Limavady was sentenced to a year in prison after admitting to engaging in sexual activity with a girl who was only 13 years old. The individual, identified as Daryl Kelly, who resides on Protestant Street in the town, faced serious legal consequences for his actions.

Following his guilty plea, Kelly was also subjected to a court order that prohibited him from having any contact with children unless explicitly permitted by authorities. This restriction was part of the measures taken to prevent any further harm or inappropriate interactions involving minors.

Additionally, the court mandated that Kelly must register as a sex offender for a period of ten years. This registration requirement is a standard procedure aimed at monitoring individuals convicted of sexual offenses, especially those involving minors, to ensure public safety and facilitate ongoing supervision.

During the proceedings at Limavady Magistrates’ Court, Judge Pierce Grant addressed the case, noting that there had been some indications or suggestions that Kelly might have been involved in grooming the young girl. Grooming, a process where an offender builds a relationship of trust with a minor to facilitate sexual abuse, is considered a serious aggravating factor in such cases.

Overall, the court’s decision reflects the gravity of Kelly’s actions and the importance of safeguarding vulnerable minors from exploitation and abuse in the community of Limavady.
