Man jailed for multiple rape of a child
A Peterborough man has been jailed for 13 years after admitting filming himself raping a four-year-old child, and distributing the video on the internet
Brett Deane (28) of Welland Road, Peterborough was caged at Peterborough Crown Court today (Tuesday) after admitting a number of sexual offences against the girl, including two counts of rape.
The court was told he filmed one of the rapes, and shared it with people it on the internet.
He also admitted four counts of sexual assault, and one count of each charge of taking, making, possessing and distributing indecent images of children.
Detective Sergeant Amerjit Singh said: “It is almost impossible to comprehend such an horrific act of attacking a young child who had no way of defending herself.
“Deane did not give a moment’s thought to what impact his actions will have on such a young victim who will, no doubt, be haunted by this abuse for many years to come.
“While no sentence could make up for what he did to that young child, the jail term passed by the judge shows how seriously such offending is taken by the police and the courts and should send a strong warning that it will not be tolerated.”
