WILLIAM BROWN FROM BUCKHAVEN, FIFE, SENTENCED FOR SEXUAL ASSAULTS ON YOUNG GIRLS IN FIFE

In December 2018, a man named William Brown from Buckhaven, Fife, was sentenced to a lengthy prison term after being convicted of multiple serious sexual offenses committed against young girls over a span of more than two decades. The crimes, which took place between 1982 and 2004, involved Brown targeting vulnerable female victims in various locations across Fife, causing significant trauma and fear among those affected.

Brown, aged 61 at the time of sentencing, had denied the allegations throughout the legal proceedings. However, after a trial held in Edinburgh, he was found guilty of four charges, including rape and lewd and libidinous behavior. The court proceedings revealed the extent of his predatory actions, which had remained hidden for many years before finally coming to light.

During the sentencing at the High Court in Glasgow, Lord Kinclaven emphasized the gravity of Brown’s crimes, noting that he had been convicted of offenses against “vulnerable young females.” The court also ordered Brown to be placed on the sex offenders register, marking him as a serious risk to the safety of young women in the community.

Following the conviction, police officials expressed their satisfaction with the outcome, highlighting the bravery of the victims who came forward to report the abuse. Detective Constable Catriona Maton, a member of Fife’s divisional rape investigation unit, publicly acknowledged the courage of those victims, stating, “I would like to thank the victims in this case for their courage and bravery in reporting the matter to police, and for their continued engagement at trial.”

She further emphasized the importance of reporting sexual crimes, regardless of how much time has passed, asserting, “We will not tolerate sexual abuse and encourage anyone to report such crimes so that we can investigate them thoroughly, including crimes of a non-recent or historic nature. Despite the passing of time, these crimes can still lead to convictions.”
