Judge Wright indicated that the boy’s ongoing damage from John March’s offences was evidenced throughout the trial proceedings.
“This has understandably had a profound impact on this young boy and will undoubtedly persist throughout his life,” Judge Wright stated during a sentencing hearing on January 10, 2025, at Sheffield Crown Court.
Judge Wright sentenced John March to four years in prison, stating that he would have faced a custodial sentence exceeding ten years had he been an adult at the time of the acts.
