Guisborough man Mark Tilley convicted of child sex offences

A man named Mark Tilley, who was a former director of a company in Guisborough, has been found guilty by a jury at Teesside Crown Court of multiple child sex offences. Tilley, aged 60, was reported missing after his conviction for numerous counts of raping and indecently assaulting a girl under 14 during the 1990s. Following the verdict on all six charges, police launched an appeal to locate him since he did not appear in court. Cleveland Police later confirmed that he had been found. The trial and subsequent investigations validated his involvement in these serious crimes, and his conviction represents a significant legal outcome in this case.
