Rochdale Child Sexual Abuser
In a disturbing case that has sent shockwaves through the Rochdale community, Alexander Yeomans, a 55-year-old man with ties to the town, has been sentenced to 11 years in prison for heinous child sexual offenses. The conviction follows a lengthy trial at Manchester Crown Court, where Yeomans faced 12 counts of indecent assault. Although he denied all charges initially, the jury found him guilty of all but one, revealing a pattern of depraved behavior that spanned several years.
Yeomans, who resided at Ralph Sherwin Court in Rochdale, was known locally for his involvement in the entertainment scene, running a business that supplied karaoke equipment. His reputation in south Manchester pubs was well established, but behind this facade lay a dark secret. The court was told that Yeomans exploited his position and familiarity to prey on vulnerable young girls, treating them as objects for sexual gratification rather than as minors deserving protection.
The prosecution, led by Tina Langdale, detailed how Yeomans had abused one of his victims on multiple occasions, starting when she was a young child and continuing into her teenage years. The abuse was facilitated through the use of alcohol and drugs, which he supplied to the girl, further enabling his predatory behavior. In addition to this victim, three other young girls were also subjected to his abuse, highlighting a disturbing pattern of exploitation.
The case came to light after one of the victims confided in her mother, prompting an investigation that uncovered the extent of Yeomans' misconduct. The court heard harrowing details of the abuse, which shocked everyone present. During the proceedings, Yeomans maintained his innocence, with his defense lawyer, David Temkin, asserting that his client believed he was innocent and was suffering from mental health struggles, including thoughts of suicide.
However, Judge Clement Goldstone QC delivered a stern judgment, condemning Yeomans as a
