Description
A registered sex offender has been sentenced to more than 20 years’ jail for raping a child and making her film indecent videos for him.
Jamie Thacker, aged 34, who has been previously convicted of possessing indecent images of children, had messaged the victim via WhatsApp and given her instructions to film indecent videos of herself.
The videos were discovered by a family member of the victim, and further disclosures were made that she had been previously raped by Thacker.
Thacker, who previously lived in Everton, near Biggleswade, pleaded guilty to 10 different counts, including rape, assault by penetration, and causing or inciting a child to engage in sexual activity and breaching his sexual harm prevention order.
He was sentenced at Huntington Crown Court last Thursday (17/10) to 21 years in prison with a further five years on licence due to the danger he poses.
