WHITEHAVEN MAN DEAN BROUGH SENTENCED FOR SEX OFFENSES IN CARLISLE

In a recent court hearing held at Carlisle Crown Court, a man from Whitehaven was formally sentenced for serious sexual offenses committed in 2019. Dean Brough, aged 21 and residing on Rannerdale Drive in Whitehaven, faced justice after being found guilty of sexual assault.

The court heard that Brough's criminal actions took place in West Cumbria, targeting a single female victim. The details of the assault were thoroughly examined during the trial, leading to a conviction that underscores the severity of his misconduct.

On March 14, Brough was handed a custodial sentence of two years and five months. This period of imprisonment reflects the gravity of his offense and the legal system's response to such violations.

In addition to his prison term, Brough was subjected to a ten-year Sex Offender Notification Requirement, which mandates regular registration and monitoring of his activities to prevent further offenses. Furthermore, he was issued a ten-year Sexual Harm Prevention Order, restricting his behavior and contact to safeguard the community from potential harm.

The case highlights ongoing efforts by authorities to address and penalize sexual offenses, emphasizing the importance of justice for victims and the protection of the public. The sentencing serves as a reminder of the consequences faced by those who commit such crimes, especially within the local area of Whitehaven and the wider West Cumbria region.
