ELGIN MAN MATTHEW WATSON FACES 21 SEXUAL OFFENCES IN SHOCKING CASE

A man from Elgin, Matthew Watson, aged 36, is currently facing a serious and extensive legal battle after being charged with a total of 21 counts of sexual offences involving 12 women and girls. The charges span over a period from 2005 to 2018, highlighting a prolonged pattern of alleged misconduct.

According to court proceedings, Watson was caught attempting to erase evidence of his online activity by trying to delete his Facebook account. This act was reportedly an effort to prevent police from gathering evidence against him. The court heard that Watson was actively trying to cover his tracks, which included pleas made to his father via phone calls in 2018, urging him to delete his Facebook account out of fear of being arrested.

The allegations against Watson are grave, including accusations of raping teenage girls and engaging in various indecent practices. Despite the serious nature of these charges, Watson has maintained his innocence, denying all allegations brought against him.

Prosecutors have pointed out Watson’s attempts to obstruct justice and emphasized the ongoing danger he poses to potential future victims. The case remains under trial, with authorities continuing their investigation into the allegations.

Residents of Elgin and the wider community are closely watching the proceedings, which have brought to light disturbing allegations involving a local individual. The court continues to examine the evidence, and the legal process is ongoing to ensure justice is served.
