In a case that has shocked the community of Scunthorpe, Matthew Sharpe, a 25-year-old man with an extensive history of sexual offenses, has been handed a life sentence following his conviction for a series of heinous assaults on a young girl. The court heard that Sharpe subjected the victim to a series of degrading and traumatic acts, which included dragging her and forcibly tying her down during the attacks. These actions inflicted severe emotional scars that are expected to have a lasting impact on the young girl’s mental health and well-being.

Throughout the proceedings, the court was informed of Sharpe’s troubling past, which includes multiple previous convictions related to sexual misconduct.

Additionally, an indefinite restraining order was issued, prohibiting him from approaching or contacting the victim or any other potential victims in the future. The judge emphasized the importance of safeguarding the public from individuals like Sharpe, whose actions have caused irreparable harm to innocent victims. The case has once again highlighted the ongoing issues surrounding sexual violence and the importance of strict legal consequences for offenders in the town of Scunthorpe.
