String of sexual crimes and violent offences.

Man Sentenced to 16 Years for Sexual Crimes and Violent Offenses in Lincoln

Jud Green, 34, has been sentenced to 16 years in prison for a string of sexual crimes and violent offenses in Lincoln. Green was found guilty of several charges, including two rapes, sexual assault, causing grievous bodily harm with intent, and false imprisonment after a trial at Lincoln Crown Court.

Green was also given an extended period of six years on licence under supervision upon his release.

Det Insp Lee Nixon described Green's crimes as "horrific". Police said Green, of no fixed address, was arrested after a woman came forward in December 2022 to report that he had physically and sexually assaulted her and raped her.

While Green was on bail, a second woman reported that Green had assaulted her and broken her jaw. As a result, he was arrested again before being charged and remanded into custody.

'Never shown remorse'

Following his trial, Green was found guilty of two rapes, assault occasioning actual bodily harm, sexual assault, witness intimidation, false imprisonment, and causing grievous bodily harm with intent. He denied those charges, but admitted to criminal damage and intentional strangulation.

After Green's sentencing at Lincoln Crown Court on Thursday, Det Insp Nixon, from Lincolnshire Police, said: "Jud Green has been brought to justice after carrying out these horrific crimes. He has never shown remorse for the harm he caused to the victims. I want to pay tribute to the bravery of the victims coming forward to report these crimes, and whose evidence was absolutely vital in securing this outcome."

Det Insp Nixon added that Green's victims had "shown incredible courage".
