Full Description

Jeffrey Owens, a man from Hyde in Greater Manchester, was jailed for over eight years for committing sexual offences against children, which included threatening his young victims to ensure their silence. The case revealed a pattern of abuse targeting vulnerable children in the local area.

Following complaints and an investigation by Greater Manchester Police, Owens was charged with multiple counts of sexual assault. Manchester Crown Court heard how Owens used intimidation post-assault to prevent reporting, exacerbating the victims' suffering.

Owens sexually assaulted children in Hyde over several instances.
Threats were made to deter victims from speaking out.
Evidence included victim testimonies and corroborative proof.

Sentencing in March 2023 saw the judge condemn Owens' actions as cowardly, imposing a lengthy term and sex offenders' register inclusion. The court emphasised the need for support services for affected children. Greater Manchester Police's safeguarding teams were instrumental in the case.
