A Chatham man who preyed on a teenage girl in Rochester has seen his “lenient” sentence slashed – then beefed up after political intervention. Abiola Adenmosun, 35, was first jailed for four years and three months in July for horrific sexual abuse dating back to 2012.
How He Lured and Attacked His Victim
Back in 2012, Adenmosun was driving through Rochester when he stopped his car beside a teenage girl he didn’t know. He struck up a conversation and arranged to meet her the next day. At that meeting, he gave the girl alcohol and a cannabis cigarette, which disorientated her as it was her first time trying drugs.
He then sexually assaulted her in his car. Over the following months, the predator continued to meet the girl and committed further sexual offences. He also damaged her phone and assaulted one of her family members.
Victim Speaks Out, Offender Faces Justice
The victim eventually reported the abuse to police in 2017, fed up with Adenmosun’s persistent texts and calls despite her attempts to cut contact. Following an investigation, he was charged with six counts of sexual activity with a child.
Adenmosun must also sign the Sex Offenders Register and faces tough restrictions for life.
