Sickening paedophile Terry Blackmore, 78, has been locked up for over five years after sexually abusing an eight-year-old girl in Warrington.
Horrific Crimes Uncovered
At Liverpool Crown Court on 20 October, Blackmore, a man with no fixed address, pleaded guilty to multiple offences. These include:
- Taking indecent photographs (categories B and C)
- Possession of indecent images
- Four counts of assaulting a girl under 13 by touching
- Assault by touching under clothing
The court heard he repeatedly abused the victim over a 12-month period, starting when she was just eight. His vile acts included inappropriate touching and taking indecent images of the child.
Justice Served – But Support Needed
Detective Constable Heidi Ryder praised the bravery of the victim. She said: “I would like to commend the victim for the bravery and courage she has shown in coming forward and talking about what happened to her.
“Nobody should have to experience what the victim has been through, and I hope that the fact that Blackmore is now behind bars will provide her with some closure.”
