9. Roger Allen: Sheffield child rapist jailed over years of "horrific sexual abuse"
Roger Allen, aged 60, was locked up after admitting a litany of child sexual offences including numerous counts of sexual activity with a child, multiple counts of rape, as well as making indecent images of children and possessing an extreme pornographic image. Allen’s victim, who cannot be identified for legal reasons, came forward to police to report years of horrific sexual offending, triggering an investigation which landed their attacker behind bars after the case was heard at Sheffield Crown Court in May 2023. Allen was arrested and when his property was searched, a number of devices containing indecent images and videos of children were found. In addition to a 20-year prison sentence, Allen was handed a Sexual Harm Prevention Order and placed on the Sex Offenders Register. Allen, formerly of Abbey Brook Gardens, Meadowhead, Sheffield, pleaded guilty to 16 offences in total. | SYP
