SHAUN SINCLAIR CONVICTED OF MULTIPLE SEX OFFENCES IN GIRVAN AND LARGS
In a series of disturbing criminal cases spanning several years, Shaun Sinclair, aged 23, has been found guilty of multiple sexual offences committed in the towns of Girvan and Largs, both located in South Ayrshire and North Ayrshire respectively. The gravity of his crimes has shocked local communities and prompted serious legal repercussions.One of the most heinous incidents took place in January 2013 at a residence in Girvan, where Sinclair assaulted and raped a woman. The attack was particularly brutal, leaving a lasting impact on the victim. The court also heard that Sinclair had engaged in sexual activity with another woman on two separate occasions in 2014. The first of these incidents involved a disturbing episode at a flat in Glasgow, where Sinclair raped a former partner. This woman was only 15 years old at the time of their initial encounter, adding a layer of statutory violation to the case.
During the trial, the victim recounted a chilling experience where Sinclair had spread kitchen knives on a table and instructed her to choose one with which she would prefer to die. She described how he punched and choked her before forcing himself upon her. On the same day, Sinclair carried out another sexual assault on her. The woman, who later expressed feelings of despair, had contacted the police but withdrew her complaint at Sinclair’s request, fearing further harm.
Prosecutor Bruce Erroch addressed the jury, describing Sinclair’s conduct as calculated and bordering on sadism, emphasizing the cruelty involved in his actions. The court also heard that Sinclair raped the same woman again on Christmas Eve of 2014, after leaving her to engage in sex with a neighbor. During this assault, Sinclair held a knife to her throat and physically assaulted her before raping her once more. The victim was left with numerous injuries, described as a “catalogue of injuries,” highlighting the brutality of the attack.
Further charges revealed that Sinclair had committed additional sexual violence in Girvan. In January 2013, he attacked a woman after smashing up her property. Despite her efforts to calm him down, Sinclair grabbed her wrists and raped her. He was convicted of unlawful sex, assault, and rape against this woman.
In addition to these offences, Sinclair was found guilty of raping another woman at a flat in Largs in April 2012, and of having sex with a 15-year-old girl in 2013. The court proceedings also established that Sinclair had physically assaulted a third female victim during the same period.
Judge Norman Ritchie QC sentenced Sinclair to be placed on the sex offenders register, reflecting the severity of his crimes and the need for ongoing monitoring. The convictions mark a significant legal victory for justice and serve as a stark reminder of the dangers posed by such offenders in the community.
