Offence Summary

Ryan Gillard was convicted of raping a woman and causing grievous bodily harm, showing a near total disregard for his victim's feelings.

Full Description

Ryan Gillard, 31, of no fixed abode, was sentenced at Exeter Crown Court for a string of serious offences including rape and grievous bodily harm (GBH). He denied the charges but was convicted after a trial where the jury heard compelling evidence of his guilt.

The judge, Stephen Climie, remarked that Gillard had demonstrated a 'near total disregard' for the feelings of his victim. The victim read a personal statement in court, detailing the profound impact the rape had on her life, underscoring the lasting trauma caused by such violent sexual offences.

Gillard's actions were described as violent and predatory. He received a sentence of 16 years in prison in October 2025, as part of the broader roundup of criminals jailed that month in Devon, according to Devon Live reports.
