| Red Rose Database
Paignton Sexual Abuser
In July 2017, Victor Keith Morgan, a resident of Marine Drive in Paignton, faced serious legal consequences after admitting to committing a disturbing sexual offense involving a child. The incident took place over a period spanning from December 20, 2014, to July 22, 2015, during which Morgan was found to have created an indecent photograph of a minor. This act was part of a series of related offences that further compounded the severity of his case.
During the court proceedings, Morgan pleaded guilty to the charges brought against him. The court responded with a custodial sentence, sentencing him to ten months in prison. The judge emphasized the gravity of the offences, citing the serious nature of the crimes, Morgan’s prior criminal record, and the fact that he was subject to a sexual prevention order at the time of the offences. The court also noted Morgan’s lack of acknowledgment of his culpability and his resistance to engaging with probation services, which contributed to the decision to impose a prison sentence.
In addition to the prison term, Morgan was ordered to pay a victim surcharge of £100. Furthermore, he was mandated to register with the police under the Sexual Offences Act for a period of ten years, ensuring ongoing monitoring and oversight of his activities to protect the community from potential harm.
