PAUL WAGER SENTENCED IN LOUGHBOROUGH FOR SEXUAL ABUSE OF YOUNG GIRLS IN LEICESTER

In a recent court ruling, Paul Wager, a 65-year-old man from Loughborough, has been sentenced to over seven years in prison following his conviction for sexually abusing two young girls in Leicester. The case drew significant attention as Wager was found guilty on multiple counts of sexual assault involving children aged between 8 and 10 years old.

Details of the case reveal that Wager’s offending came to light after one of the victims confided in her mother, prompting an investigation that uncovered a disturbing pattern of abuse. The court heard that Wager had engaged in a series of sexual assaults against the young girls, which included threats aimed at silencing them and preventing disclosure of his actions.

Judge Nicholas Dean QC described Wager’s conduct as particularly serious, emphasizing the profound and lasting impact his actions have had on the victims. The judge’s remarks underscored the gravity of the offenses and the need for a substantial custodial sentence to reflect the severity of the crimes committed.

Wager’s sentencing marks a significant moment in the ongoing efforts to protect children from sexual abuse and hold offenders accountable. The case also highlights the importance of vigilance and the role of victims and their families in bringing such cases to justice.
