February 2022 Scots sex pest who assaulted a mum and her daughter walks free from court A married sex pest who attacked a mother and daughter has walked free from court Dundee Sheriff Court was told that Jordan Phillips, 32, carried out sexual assaults on a woman and her 15-year-old daughter. But he was shown mercy by a sheriff after the court was told that injuries he sustained in a car crash had been partly to blame for turning him into a sex offender. Sheriff Paul Brown said: “This are serious offences that merit a custodial sentence. However, the information I have before me is unusual. “I am told by social workers and a clinical neuropsychologist that you suffered traumatic injury which has led to cognitive impairment – and that has been a significant factor in your offending. “What that means is it significantly reduces the blameworthiness which attaches to you. All of that means I am of the view there is an alternative to custody.” He placed Phillips under supervision and on the Sex Offenders Register for two years and ordered him to carry out 200 hours unpaid work in the community. Phillips, North Street, Dundee, was found guilty of sexually assaulting the 15-year-old girl on various occasions by seizing her breast, buttock and thigh and ripping her tights in December 2019 He was also found guilty of three charges of sexually assaulting a woman at various locations in Dundee between 8 December 2018 and 22 November 2019. Phillips was also made the subject of a non-harassment order prohibiting him from having any contact with either of his victims for two years.
