A 30 year old man Ryan Baskerville from Liversedge, branded as dangerous by detectives, has been sentenced to 12 years after admitting to a series of child sex offences against a young boy. The sentencing took place at Leeds Crown Court on Tuesday, January 9, where Baskerville received a seven-year prison term with an additional five years on licence.
The court also imposed an indefinite Sexual Harm Prevention Order on the 30-year-old offender. The charges stem from sexual assaults committed by Baskerville against his young victim between 2020 and 2022. The Kirklees District Child Safeguarding Unit launched a thorough investigation after the victim bravely spoke out about the incidents, leading to a report to Kirklees Police.
