Kevin Lusted denied responsibility for a catalogue of offences against a victim between 2016 and 2022 but was found guilty following a trial at Maidstone Crown Court.
Lusted, of Spade Lane, Sittingbourne was arrested in March last year and a Kent Police investigation uncovered evidence he had systemically raped and abused his victim from the age of a child. He also subjected them to repeated threats including that they would be tied up and shot.
