Drakes Broughton Rapist Child Sexual Abuser
A man from Worcestershire has been formally sentenced to a significant prison term after being found guilty of multiple heinous sexual offenses. The individual, identified as Joshua Newell, aged 33 and residing on Peach Avenue in the village of Drakes Broughton, was convicted of a series of disturbing crimes that spanned several years.
According to court records, Newell committed a grave sexual assault on a young girl between the years 2005 and 2007, during which he was under the age of 16. The severity of this crime was compounded by the fact that he continued to abuse her, sexually assaulting her again between 2007 and 2008. These acts have left a lasting impact on the victim, and their case was brought to justice after a thorough investigation.
In addition to the assaults, Newell was found to have created and stored three indecent videos involving a child. Of these, one was classified as Category A, indicating the most serious level of indecency, while the other two fell into Category B. The court also uncovered that Newell possessed a disturbing collection of 14 extreme pornographic images. These images depicted a person engaging in intercourse with a live animal, a crime that highlights the disturbing nature of his offenses.
As part of his sentencing, the court ordered Newell to serve three years and six months in prison. Furthermore, he was mandated to sign the sex offenders register indefinitely, a measure designed to monitor his activities and prevent further harm. In a separate punitive measure, he was also fined £115, which was awarded to the victim as a form of restitution.
The court took into account Newell’s age at the time of the offenses when determining his punishment, recognizing the complexities involved in juvenile offending. The conviction was welcomed by law enforcement officials, including Detective Constable Ian Jones from Hereford CID, who expressed his satisfaction with the outcome. Detective Jones praised the bravery of the victim in coming forward and emphasized the police’s unwavering commitment to prosecuting sexual offenses, regardless of how much time has passed since the crimes occurred.
