A teenager who raped a 14-year-old girl and committed ten other serious sexual crimes has been locked up.

Cameron Kyle Edwards, 19, of Selby Road, Holme-on-Spalding-Moor, pleaded guilty to 11 sex offences when he appeared at York Crown Court on 7 November last year.

The offences include one count of rape, three counts of assault by penetration, three counts of sexual assault, three counts of making indecent photographs of children and one count of possessing extreme pornography.

Today (Friday) Edwards was sentenced to five years five months’ detention in a Young Offenders Institute.

He was issued with a Sexual Harm Prevention Order and ordered to sign the sex offenders register indefinitely.

In December 2020 Edwards raped a 14-year-old girl at a property in a North Yorkshire village.

The victim was able to identify Edwards as the offender and he was arrested the same day.

Following his arrest, his phone was seized and 6,200 indecent images were found during the investigation process, many of which were category A (the most serious).

The phone also contained a video of Edwards sexually assaulting a 16-year-old girl during a separate incident.

Victims’ bravery praised

Police are hoping the sentence will encourage other victims of sexual offences to come forward.

Investigating officer Detective Constable Martin Willoughby, said: “First of all I would like to comment on the bravery of the two victims which helped secure the conviction of Edwards today.

“The pattern of behaviour shown by Edwards is extremely worrying and demonstrated how it quickly escalated into the serious offences which he will now spend time in prison for.

“I know the sentence will never undo the anguish Edwards put his victims through but I hope it will go some way to reassure them, knowing he now off the streets of North Yorkshire for some time.”
