    RYAN MACDONALD SENTENCED IN GLASGOW FOR PREDATORY RAPE AND CHILD SEX OFFENSES

    In a disturbing case that has shocked the city of Glasgow, a man named Ryan Macdonald has been sentenced to five years in prison for a brutal sexual assault that took place in the heart of the city centre. The incident involved a vulnerable teenage girl who was targeted by Macdonald, who followed her through the streets before luring her behind scaffolding on Union Street, where he committed the assault.

    Macdonald, aged 33, was convicted of raping the 18-year-old victim after she had been drinking, rendering her unable to give valid consent. The attack occurred just two months after Macdonald was released on bail, having previously been charged with attempting to communicate indecently with a minor. Despite his denial of the rape, claiming that the sexual activity was consensual, the court found overwhelming evidence to the contrary.

    During the trial at the High Court in Edinburgh, CCTV footage was presented to jurors, showing the victim in the early hours of August 15, 2020. The images depicted her intoxicated and clearly incapable of consenting to any sexual activity. The footage was instrumental in establishing the nature of the assault, which involved Macdonald following her, wrapping his arms around her, pushing and pulling her, kissing her, and ultimately pushing her behind the scaffolding. There, he forcibly removed her clothing and molested her, actions that left no doubt about her inability to consent.

    Judge Lord Harrower emphasized the severity of Macdonald’s actions, noting that reports on his criminal history indicated a very high risk of reoffending sexually. The court was told that due to the gravity of his crimes and his prior record, only a custodial sentence was appropriate. Macdonald was also ordered to be on licence for an additional three years following his release, with strict warnings that any breach of licence conditions could result in his return to prison.

    In addition to the rape conviction, Macdonald had earlier admitted to two other serious charges: attempted indecent communication with a child and attempting to cause a minor to view a sexual image. These offences took place between May 28 and June 5, 2020, at a residence in the Castlemilk area of Glasgow. During this period, he engaged in online communications via Facebook Messenger, believing he was speaking to a 14-year-old girl. In reality, he was in contact with an adult woman pretending to be a minor. Macdonald used a fake profile to send texts and images, further demonstrating his predatory behavior.

    Following his arrest and subsequent court appearances, Macdonald was granted bail but continued his pattern of offending, culminating in the violent attack on the teenager. Today’s sentencing also included a ruling that he must register as a sex offender indefinitely, reflecting the seriousness of his crimes and the threat he poses to the community. The case has once again highlighted the dangers faced by vulnerable individuals in Glasgow and the importance of vigilant law enforcement in protecting the public from repeat offenders.
