SHEFFIELD PAEDOPHILE SENTENCED TO FOUR YEARS IN PRISON
An unrepentant Paedophile from Sheffield, John March, is commencing a prison sentence today, following a jury’s conviction on many counts of rape, all perpetrated during his early adolescence on a far younger youngster.
While sentencing 20-year-old John March, Judge Sarah Wright stated, “These were exceedingly grave offences.” John March attempted to refute responsibility for the series of sexual offences attributed to him; however, jurors dismissed his narrative, resulting in his conviction on six counts of raping a child under 13 and one count of causing or inciting a child under 13 to engage in sexual activity, following a trial at Sheffield Crown Court.

Judge Wright indicated that the boy’s ongoing damage from John March’s offences was evidenced throughout the trial proceedings.

Judge Wright sentenced John March to four years in prison, stating that he would have faced a custodial sentence exceeding ten years had he been an adult at the time of the acts.
