Detective Praises Courage of Victims

“Ian Ramsay is a predatory and dangerous man who has committed a variety of serious crimes against a number of different women over a protracted period of time,” said Detective Sergeant Gillian Paddon.

“His conduct has been consistently horrendous over a number of years. It is thanks to the courage of the women who came forward that he has now been found guilty of these crimes and the cruelty of his behaviour has been exposed.”

“I would like to commend the victims for their bravery throughout this investigation and trial. Hopefully the verdict today will help them moving forward.”

Ramsay is set to be sentenced at a later date.
