Description
A "dangerous" child rapist from Hertfordshire has been jailed for 16 years.
Kieran Logan, 48, was sentenced at St Albans Crown Court on November 27, after pleading guilty to multiple offenses in September.
He was arrested in May 2024 when a victim came forward, revealing crimes dating back to 2003. In August, police seized his devices, uncovering two more victims and thousands of indecent images of children.
Logan was convicted of:
- Three counts of making indecent images of children (Categories A, B, and C)
- One count of sexual activity with a child
- One count of sexual assault of a child
- Three counts of sexual assault by penetration
- Two counts of rape of a child
- One count of sexual assault by penetration
Detective Constable Debbie West, of the Joint Child Protection Investigation Team (JCPIT), said: Firstly, I would like to commend the victims and their families for their support during this investigation, I want to commend them all for their incredible bravery in the face of an extremely difficult time.
Kieran Logan is a dangerous offender and has had lasting effects on his victims, but I do hope that seeing him sentenced will go some way in helping them to move on from his abhorrent crimes.
Logan preyed on young girls and used his position as an older man to hold power over them. Hes a sexual predator who will now remain behind bars for years to come, and his sentence reflects the severity of his crimes and the harm he has caused."
She added: We know it can be incredibly challenging to come forward to report incidents of sexual assault. We take reports of sexual offences very seriously and we will do everything we can to ensure that victims feel like their voices are heard and that offenders are brought to justice.
Logan, of Rushden Road in Buntingford, received 16 years in prison with a six-year extended licence period. He faces a lifelong Sexual Harm Prevention Order (SHPO) with strict conditions, lifelong placement on the Sex Offenders' Register, and restraining orders to protect his victims.
