Teenage Boy Details Three-Year Ordeal at Hands of Female Predator

A 16-year-old boy has shared the harrowing account of his three-year ordeal at the hands of a predator named Nicola Ward. The victim, who was 12 when the abuse began, described Ward as "funny and intelligent" and "well spoken" but revealed a disturbing change in her demeanor after consuming alcohol or drugs.

"She'd switch after she had a drink or took drugs. She became a different person," he said.

Ward, 34, from Worksop, Nottinghamshire, would allegedly ply the boy with cocaine before forcing him into sexual acts. The abuse continued for three years until the boy's father became suspicious and reported Ward to the authorities.

Ward was arrested in April and subsequently sentenced to eight years in prison by Nottingham Crown Court after admitting to sexual activity with a child and supplying drugs.

Following her conviction in January, Ward was initially incarcerated at Peterborough Prison. She was later moved to a low-security psychiatric unit in July.

The victim is still undergoing therapy to cope with the traumatic experiences. He expressed his shock and betrayal, saying, "I never thought a woman was capable of something like this. It's ruined my trust in everyone. It's made me fearful of women."

Despite the lasting impact of the abuse, the young man remains resolute in his determination to move forward. "But she's in the gutter where she belongs and I won't let her ruin my life," he declared.
