KENNETH DYCHE FROM WORCESTER AND UTTOXETER JAILED FOR SEX OFFENCES INVOLVING YOUNG BOYS

In a case that has shocked the local communities of Worcester and Uttoxeter, Kenneth Dyche, an 85-year-old man with ties to both locations, has been convicted and sentenced for a series of serious sexual offences involving young boys. The crimes span over several years, with some incidents dating back to the early 1990s, highlighting a disturbing pattern of predatory behavior.

Dyche, who resides in Worcester, admitted to attempting to rape a young boy in Uttoxeter, Staffordshire, in 1997. This particular incident was part of a broader pattern of abuse that he confessed to, which also included six counts of indecent assault against boys under the age of 14. These assaults occurred between 1992 and 1998 in the town of Uttoxeter, revealing a troubling history of exploitation and abuse.

Furthermore, Dyche pleaded guilty to an additional charge of indecency with a child under 14, which took place in 1997. His admissions came during proceedings at Stafford Crown Court, where he faced justice for his actions. The court heard the full extent of his offending, which spanned several years and involved multiple victims.

On Friday, September 11, Dyche was sentenced to a term of 12 and a half years in prison. The severity of his sentence reflects the gravity of his crimes and the impact on the victims involved. In addition to his imprisonment, Dyche has been ordered to be placed on the sex offenders’ register for life, ensuring ongoing monitoring and restrictions to protect the community from further harm.

This case underscores the importance of vigilance and the need for robust legal measures to address and prevent sexual abuse, especially involving vulnerable children. The authorities hope that the sentencing will serve as a deterrent to others and bring some measure of justice to those affected by Dyche’s actions.
