| Red Rose Database
Faifley Sexual Abuser
In June 2019, Keith Logan, a man residing in Faifley, narrowly avoided imprisonment despite a troubling history of sexual offenses and repeated breaches of court-imposed restrictions. Logan, aged 44 at the time, was previously convicted of multiple sexual assaults involving two teenage girls and a woman, with these incidents occurring in Clydebank and Garscadden View.
His criminal activities date back to April 29, 2017, when he was found guilty of touching two girls, aged 13 and 14, in a sexual manner at a property in Garscadden View. The 14-year-old victim reported that Logan embraced and kissed her inappropriately, while the 13-year-old was similarly touched sexually during the same incident. These offenses took place just a month after Logan was granted bail at Dumbarton Sheriff Court, highlighting the troubling pattern of behavior.
In addition to these assaults, Logan committed a third sexual offense on July 3, 2017, at a property on Montrose Street in Clydebank, where he seized a woman and engaged in sexual touching. All three offenses occurred within a relatively short period, and Logan was on bail during these times, under strict court orders to prevent further misconduct.
Following his conviction, Logan was sentenced to a community payback order, which included a two-year period of social work supervision, 300 hours of unpaid work, and placement on the sex offenders’ register for two years. He was also electronically tagged for six months, with a curfew from 7 pm to 7 am each day. Despite these measures, Logan was found to have breached the terms of his restrictions multiple times, particularly by being outside his home in Orbiston Drive, Faifley, on numerous occasions.
During a court hearing on the Friday following these breaches, Logan’s solicitor, Gail Campbell, acknowledged the seriousness of his mental health deterioration but questioned the rationale behind his outside movements. She explained that Logan had contacted the tagging company, G4S, to report when he was outside and when he returned home, with most breaches lasting only a few minutes. Campbell also expressed surprise that Logan had not been attending alcohol counseling sessions, which were a specific requirement of his sentence.
The court was informed that Logan’s mental health had significantly declined, complicating his compliance. Sheriff Simon Pender questioned why Logan felt the need to be outside when he was not permitted to do so, emphasizing that his breaches were a violation of the court’s orders. Despite the breaches, the sheriff decided to give Logan a final chance, warning that failure to comply fully would result in jail time.
As a result, Logan was sentenced to an additional three-month curfew and ordered to return for a review on July 31. The court’s decision underscored the importance of strict adherence to the conditions set forth, with the sheriff making it clear that this was his last opportunity to demonstrate compliance and address his issues effectively.
