Sixty-Four-Year-Old Boss Sentenced for Abuse | Belfast News
Description
A Co Derry businessman, William Brown, 64, has been jailed for three years after pleading guilty to five charges of indecently assaulting a 15-year-old employee over a two-year period. The abuse, which occurred between 2005 and 2007, was only reported 15 years later in 2022 — after Brown initially denied the allegations. The court heard harrowing details of the assaults, including groping and attempted forced acts, with the victim describing how the trauma “ate away” at her life. Though Brown now lives in a caravan, estranged from family and facing indefinite registration as a sex offender, the judge called the abuse “highly culpable.” He received a three-year sentence followed by one year probation.
