Back to EpisodesMan Jailed for Raping Teen
Description
Thirty-five-year-old Victor Popa was sentenced to twelve years in prison for raping a fourteen-year-old girl in Aberdeen. The victim, who had been separated from her friends and waited for a taxi, accepted a ride from Popa, who offered to help despite knowing her age and intoxicated state. During the ride, Popa assaulted the girl, causing severe psychological and physical harm, including complex post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and depression. Despite Popas claim of consensual sex and the victims alleged statement that she was eighteen, a jury found him guilty following a trial in Edinburgh. Popa was added to the sex offenders register indefinitely and banned from contacting the victim.
