BRADFIELD MAN JAILED FOR CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE
THIS is the face of a self-confessed monster who abused a child and told her she was “pretty for her age”.Jason Hill, 28, was jailed for six years after he admitted to 13 counts of sexual activity with a child.
Chelmsford Crown Court heard the victim was told she must keep the incidents a secret.
Prosecutor Joanne Eley said: “She said he would say ‘Just stay quiet, just like don’t make any noises’.
He said to her ‘No-one can ever know about this, ever’.” The victim estimated there had been between 40 to 50 different occasions when sexual activity took place.
The court heard police were contacted in February and Hill, of Steam Mill Road, Bradfield, made limited admissions.
He said sexual intercourse had taken place and it had started the year before.
Hill added he was “quite happy to take whatever gets thrown at him, I deserve it”.
During police interviews, Hill said he found the victim “pretty for her age” and minimized the contact, claiming they had sex three or four times.
He acknowledged the acts were wrong and said he knew from the beginning it was wrong.
The victim reported feeling “scared and guilty”, blaming herself and feeling like the offences were her fault, saying she can’t look in the mirror without feeling sick and horrible.
She also said the offences impacted her sleep, with night-time being the only time she feels safe enough to cry and let it all out.
Hill accepted responsibility and was described as a man of previous good character.
In addition to his prison sentence, he was placed on the sex offender register for life and will be subject to an indefinite sexual harm prevention order.
