ADRIAN BRELSFORTH FROM HEREFORD SENTENCED FOR INDECENT ASSAULTS ON PENN GROVE ROAD

In September 2017, a man from Hereford was formally sentenced to serve time in prison after pleading guilty to two separate counts of indecent assault. The individual, identified as Adrian Brelsforth, aged 67, resides on Penn Grove Road in the Aylestone Hill area of Hereford. The court proceedings concluded with Brelsforth being handed a combined prison sentence of 33 months, reflecting the seriousness of his offenses.

During the sentencing, the judge ordered that Brelsforth would serve part of his sentence in custody and the remainder on licence, a form of supervised release. Specifically, he was sentenced to 21 months imprisonment for the first count of indecent assault and an additional 12 months for the second count. The court also imposed a Sexual Offences Prevention Order (SOPO) to restrict his activities and protect the public from potential harm.

Furthermore, as part of the legal consequences, Brelsforth’s name will be entered onto the Sex Offender Register for a period of ten years. This measure ensures ongoing monitoring and management of his conduct following his release from prison, emphasizing the authorities’ commitment to safeguarding the community from repeat offenses. The case highlights the ongoing efforts within Hereford to address and penalize sexual misconduct, reinforcing the importance of justice for victims and community safety.
