DAVID TIMMINS SENTENCED TO 15 YEARS FOR SEX OFFENCES IN GRINGLEY-ON-THE-HILL
In a case that has shocked the quiet community of Gringley-on-the-Hill, Nottinghamshire, David Timmins has been handed a lengthy prison sentence after being convicted of serious sexual offences committed against two young girls during the 1990s.Timmins, aged 66, residing on Hunters Drive in Gringley-on-the-Hill, was found guilty on Monday after an extensive 11-day trial. The court heard that he was responsible for four counts of indecent assault, one count of indecency with a child, and two counts of rape. These allegations stem from incidents that took place over two decades ago, but only came to light recently when the victims reported their experiences.
The police arrested Timmins in September 2015, following the victims' disclosures. Throughout the investigation and trial, he maintained his innocence, denying all charges brought against him. Despite his denials, the evidence presented in court was sufficient to secure a conviction.
The court proceedings revealed disturbing details about Timmins' conduct. It was reported that he used cigarettes as a means of grooming the young girls, then proceeded to abuse them. He also reportedly told the victims not to tell anyone about what had happened, an attempt to silence them and conceal his actions.
As part of his sentencing, Timmins was sentenced to 15 years in prison. Additionally, he will be required to sign the sex offenders register for the rest of his life, a measure designed to monitor and restrict his activities post-release. The court also imposed a Sexual Harm Prevention Order, which prohibits him from residing with anyone under the age of 18 and from having any contact with the victims involved in the case.
This case underscores the importance of vigilance and the courage of victims to come forward, even many years after the abuse occurred. The community of Gringley-on-the-Hill is left to grapple with the revelations and the consequences of this disturbing chapter in its history.
