Man Jailed for Multiple Sexual Offences Against Children

A 25-year-old man from Halifax, Alex Honour, has been sentenced to 10 and a half years in prison after being found guilty of multiple sexual offences against nine children. Honour, residing on Lentilfield Street in Ovenden, was convicted of crimes including rape of a child, sexual activity with a child, and incitement of a child into sexual activity. The offences occurred between 2014 and 2019, with all victims under the age of 18 at the time.

The case came to light in 2019 when one victim reported the offences to the police, prompting an investigation by the Calderdale Child Vulnerability Exploitation Team. Through their diligent work, investigators connected this report to a previous offence reported in 2017, identifying Honour as the suspect in both instances. As the investigation progressed, detectives discovered additional victims who disclosed further offences committed by Honour. In total, nine victims were identified.
