Notorious North-East Paedophile Jailed for Nearly Four Years

A notorious north-east paedophile, David Scott, also known as Ritchie, has been sentenced to nearly four years in prison after being convicted of multiple offenses related to child sexual abuse.

Scott was found guilty of messaging a 14-year-old schoolgirl for sex and downloading indecent images of infants. The court heard that Scott had been buying alcohol and disposable vapes for the girl, whom he met up with in secret over a six-month period.

The judge described Scott's actions as "despicable" and highlighted the significant harm he had caused to his victim.

This sentence serves as a stark reminder of the devastating impact that child sexual abuse has on its victims and the importance of holding perpetrators accountable for their actions.
