JAMES STOREY FROM WELLINGTON FOUND GUILTY OF ABUSING YOUNG BOY IN TAUNTON

In a disturbing case that has shocked the community of Wellington, James Cameron Storey, aged 22, has been convicted of serious criminal offenses involving a young boy. The incidents occurred during the latter part of 2020 and the early months of 2021, when Storey was 20 years old and the victim was only seven.

Storey, who resides in Rockwell Green, Wellington, appeared before Taunton Crown Court to face charges related to the abuse. The court heard that he was guilty of two counts of sexual contact with a child under the age of 13, as well as one count of physically assaulting the same young victim. The nature of the offenses was particularly heinous, involving repeated abuse over several months.

According to court reports, the young boy was subjected to multiple acts of sexual misconduct by Storey, who used threats of violence to keep the victim silent. The court was informed that during one of the assaults, the child sustained bruising, indicating the severity of the physical abuse involved.

It was revealed that Storey was unemployed at the time of the offenses and lived just a few hundred meters from a primary school in Wellington, raising concerns about the safety of children in the area. The court proceedings highlighted the disturbing pattern of abuse and the manipulative tactics employed by Storey to silence his young victim.

As the case moves forward, James Storey is scheduled to return to court in October 2022 for sentencing. The community and authorities alike await the outcome, emphasizing the importance of justice for the young boy and the need for vigilance in protecting children from such predatory behavior.
