CHILD MOLESTER FINALLY BROUGHT TO JUSTICE AFTER THREE DECADES
A man named John Morrison, aged 69, has been found guilty of abusing a young girl and threatening her with sexual violence, with incidents occurring between 1988 and 1991, when the girl was just nine years old.
Morrison admitted to engaging in lewd and indecent practices, including touching the girl, kissing her on the mouth, and exposing her breast.
He also made threats of sexual violence, telling her she would be powerless and that it was a 'game,' which she felt was wrong.
Morrison manipulated the girl into offering to massage him, subsequently touching her private parts through clothing and creating a sense of fear.
Despite the lengthy passage of time, Morrison was brought to justice after a victim impact statement was submitted.
His case was heard at Inverness Sheriff Court, and he has been placed on the sex offenders register with immediate effect, with the duration of registration to be decided at sentencing.
The court deferred sentencing to a later date to prepare further assessments.
Morrison has no prior criminal record.
