A Brierley Hill man aged 41, who carried out multiple severe sexual assaults on a schoolgirl, has received a 20-month prison sentence.
During his hearing at Wolverhampton Crown Court, Neil Round pleaded guilty to six charges involving sexual contact with a minor and an additional charge of encouraging a child to partake in sexual acts, with these offences spanning from March 2006 to November 2007.
He was also mandated to report as a sex offender for ten years.
Judge John Warner commented to the defendant, “This was a pattern of repeated abuses, and it is not unexpected that the girl has been profoundly affected by your actions.
The enduring impact remains unknown, but it may be she never fully processes what happened.” According to prosecutor Kanwal Juss, Round, who is now banned from working with children, was apprehended after the victim disclosed her ordeal to her mother.
Round told police, “I know I shouldn’t have done it.
It was a bit of fun that got out of hand.” The court was informed that the girl had been experiencing nightmares and illness since the assaults, and she has since undergone a noticeable change in demeanor.
Harry Owen, representing Round, stated that his client had made a complete confession when questioned and took responsibility for his actions right from the start.
