A man has pleaded guilty to two counts of unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor after admitting he had sex with a 13-year-old girl on two occasions.
The guilty pleas were entered mid-trial on Wednesday, two days after proceedings began, following an unsuccessful attempt by the defence to exclude the man’s confession to investigators.
Prosecutors said the accused contacted the girl via social media in early 2022 and continued communicating with her after learning her age. The first incident occurred in April 2022 in bushes near the girl’s home, with a second incident reported in July.
The abuse was reported to authorities in November 2022, prompting criminal charges.

Abuse reported in 2022 and only now going before the courts?
That is justice delayed.
Even though he admit guilt, jail hs rass good and plenty
Absolutely sickening!!! Come on now, let’s address these terrible rapes that seems to be issue with certain types of predatory males living amongst us.
These men should not only have their addresses made public to warn other parents about the dangers to their daughters, but also when caught medically castrate them as well.
The rape of children must be highlighted and addressed immediately by the relevant authorities.
@Joan, that only means the cases should have been dismissed for violation of the defendant’s rights to a fair/speedy trial.
Brixtonian, some years ago there was talk about letting the public know who these rapists were in your area so you could protect yourself from them, but I do not think it was implemented. You know everything here is just lip service. Full time for it to happen. That’s something positive this Administration could do
