FRASER WANN FROM COUPAR ANGUS SENTENCED FOR SEXUAL OFFENSES INVOLVING UNDERAGE GIRL

In a recent court proceeding held in December 2015, Fraser Wann, aged 21, a resident of Caddam Place in Coupar Angus, faced serious allegations related to sexual misconduct involving a minor. The court heard that Wann had engaged in two separate sexual acts with an underage girl, actions that have prompted legal action and subsequent sentencing.

During the hearing, Wann pleaded guilty to the charges, admitting that the offenses took place on May 31 of the previous year in Coupar Angus. His admission of guilt was a significant factor in the court's decision to impose penalties aimed at both punishment and public safety.

As part of his sentence, Wann was ordered to register as a sex offender for a period of two years. This registration requirement is intended to monitor and prevent further offenses, ensuring community safety and providing a measure of accountability for Wann's actions.

In addition to the sex offender registration, the court imposed a restriction of liberty order for six months. Under this order, Wann is required to remain at his residence between the hours of 7 pm and 7 am daily, effectively limiting his movement during nighttime hours to reduce any potential risk of reoffending.

Steve Lafferty, the defense attorney representing Wann, stated that his client was “ashamed” of his actions, indicating remorse and an understanding of the gravity of the situation. The court's decision reflects a combination of punitive measures and community protection, emphasizing the seriousness with which such offenses are treated in the legal system.
