A Swindon man has pleaded guilty to an astonishing 48 sexual offences against his former wife. Philip Young, 49, now living in Enfield, faced Winchester Crown Court on January 23.

Grotesque List of Charges

Young admitted to multiple disturbing crimes, including:

  • 11 counts of rape
  • 11 counts of administering a substance to overpower for sex
  • 14 counts of voyeurism
  • 7 counts of assault by penetration
  • 4 counts of sexual assault
