STEVE WRIGHT FROM MANSFIELD WOODHOUSE SENTENCED FOR CHILD SEX OFFENCE IN NOTTINGHAM

In a recent court ruling, Steve Wright, a resident of Burns Avenue in Mansfield Woodhouse, was sentenced to a total of three years and seven months in prison after he admitted to engaging in a sexual offence involving a minor. The incident, which involved a girl aged 15 years old, occurred in July 2018 and was brought to the attention of authorities the following year.

On Tuesday, August 27, 2019, Wright appeared before Nottingham Crown Court where he pleaded guilty to the charges. As part of his sentence, he is also required to sign the Sex Offenders’ Register for the remainder of his life, a measure that underscores the severity of his crime and the ongoing risk he poses to the community.

The investigation into the case was initiated after the incident was reported to the police. Law enforcement officers responded swiftly, seizing Wright’s electronic devices, including his phone and tablet, as part of their evidence collection process. Following the seizure, Wright was promptly arrested and taken into custody for questioning.

The court proceedings and subsequent sentencing highlight the ongoing efforts by authorities to combat child exploitation and ensure that offenders are held accountable for their actions. The case serves as a stark reminder of the importance of vigilance and reporting in protecting vulnerable minors from sexual abuse.
