Description
A man has been jailed for multiple historical sexual offences committed against minors, including a number in the Swansea and Neath Port Talbot area.
Gavin Corcoran, 44, who most recently lived in Manchester, previously resided in Morriston, Swansea.
In 2020 a 14-year-old girl came forward to police to report that Corcoran had sexually assaulted her when she was 10 years old.
Two other women then came forward and disclosed sexual abuse by Corcoran on numerous occasions when they were children.
Gavin Corcoran was charged with the above offences in 2021 and remanded into custody after failing to attend his trial later that year. He has remained in custody ever since.
In 2022, a fourth victim came forward to Greater Manchester Police disclosing that Corcoran had sexually assaulted her. He was charged with two further offences relating to this victim.
On May 21 2024, Gavin Corcoran was found guilty on all eight counts of child sex offences against the four separate victims.
He has today been sentenced to 21 years in prison extended for four years and will be on the sex offenders register for life.
