A Wigan man has been jailed for four years for historic child sex offences

Glen Stone aged 64 , of Duncan Place,was sentenced at Minshull Street Crown Court today to four years imprisonment for indecent assault.

The court heard how Stone’s crimes, which took place during the 1970s and 80s, were revealed thanks to the bravery of his victims.

Stone must also sign the sex offenders’ register for life and has been given a restraining order for five years upon release.

Detective Constable Jenna Boyer, from Greater Manchester Police’s Wigan district, said: “Firstly, I want to thank the victims involved in this case, as their courage and strength throughout this process has been truly incredible.

“Their strength in aiding us with this investigation has ensured that a dangerous man is now behind bars and away from children. I hope today’s sentence gives his victims some comfort now that he has been punished for his crimes.

“We are committed to locating and charging child sexual offenders, and we will always investigate every report that comes into. If you or someone you know has been a victim of child sexual abuse, please do get in touch with us.”
