Chesterfield Sexual Abuser
In a significant legal development, Paul Brough, a resident of Chesterfield, has been sentenced to prison following a conviction for a serious sexual offense committed in the 1990s. The case came to light after a lengthy investigation that was initiated in 2015, when the victim, feeling sufficiently courageous, decided to report the abuse to authorities.

Paul Brough, aged 55 and residing on Laurel Avenue in Arkwright, was found guilty by a jury of indecently assaulting a child under the age of 13 during the 1990s. The court proceedings culminated in his sentencing at Derby Crown Court on Thursday, July 6. Brough was sentenced to a one-year prison term and was also ordered to sign the sexual offenders register for a period of ten years.

The assault in question took place in Chesterfield, a town where Brough has lived since his release in June 2018. His criminal history and the details of the case have been kept under strict confidentiality, but the conviction underscores the ongoing efforts of law enforcement to address and prosecute historical child abuse cases. The victim’s bravery in coming forward has been instrumental in bringing Brough to justice, highlighting the importance of support and trust in the criminal justice process for survivors of abuse.
