LIAM BRODRICK SENTENCED TO NINE YEARS FOR SEXUAL ASSAULT NEAR WARRINGTON BANK QUAY

In a significant legal development, Liam Brodrick, a 28-year-old resident of Poplars Avenue in Warrington, has been sentenced to a total of nine years in prison following his conviction for sexually assaulting a young woman outside Warrington Bank Quay station. The incident, which drew considerable attention, occurred in a public area near one of Warrington’s busiest transportation hubs, highlighting the serious nature of the offense.

Brodrick appeared before Liverpool Crown Court on Friday, May 2nd, where he pleaded guilty to two counts of sexual assault. The court subsequently handed down a sentence of nine years, which includes an initial six years of incarceration, followed by a three-year period on licence. This combination aims to ensure both punishment and supervision after his release, reflecting the gravity of his crimes.

In addition to his prison sentence, Brodrick was subjected to a Sexual Harm Prevention Order that will remain in effect indefinitely. This order is designed to restrict his activities and prevent any further offenses related to sexual harm. Moreover, he was required to register on the Sex Offenders Register for life, a measure that ensures ongoing monitoring and public safety.

To further protect the victim, the court also granted an indefinite restraining order, which prohibits Brodrick from making any contact with her. This legal safeguard aims to prevent any form of harassment or intimidation, providing the victim with a measure of security and peace of mind. The case underscores the ongoing efforts of law enforcement and the judiciary to address sexual offenses and uphold public safety in Warrington and beyond.
