Description
A 76-year-old man has been jailed for 15 years after being convicted of historical child sexual offences dating back to 1986.
Bryan Lockwood, of Albert Street, Grantham, was sentenced at Lincoln Crown Court after being found guilty in July of 19 serious sexual offences.
Lockwood was also ordered to sign up to the sex offenders register for life.
Following the hearing, Lincolnshire Police praised the courage of Lockwood's victims for speaking out.
Det Con Dave Ziller said: "This is a very positive conclusion to a long investigation and one that hopefully allows the victims and families the chance to have some closure after many years."
However, he added that this case was "also a reminder there is no stereotypical offender or victim".
"Every person, agency and organisation must continue to do all they can to keep children and young people safe from harm," Det Con Ziller said.
