Description
A rapist has been jailed after abusing his victim for five years.
Following a two-week trial at Guildford Crown Court, 36-year-old Jamie Elliott was found guilty of:
- Three counts of rape
- Two counts of sexual assault of a child under 13
- One count of assault of a child under 13 by penetration
- One count of sexual assault
- Two counts of assault by penetration
- One count of causing or inciting a child to engage in sexual activity
Elliott was found to have groomed his victim, who was known to him, plying her with alcohol and showering her with gifts and subjecting her to repeated abuse for half a decade before his crimes were discovered when explicit texts were found on the victim’s phone.
Elliott, (12/06/1989), of Egham, was sentenced today (Monday 15 December) at Guildford Crown Court. He was sentenced to 17 years in prison, with an additional extended term of five years on licence and placed on the Sex Offenders Register for life.
Investigating officer, DC Hollie Grant, said:
“Elliott carried out a catalogue of sustained abuse over five years, betraying his position of trust in the victim’s life to carry out these crimes. I hope that his time in prison will allow him the opportunity to find some remorse for his despicable actions.”
