| Red Rose Database
St Helens Rapist
Paul Anthony King, a 41-year-old resident of Monmouth Grove in St Helens, has been formally sentenced to a prison term of six and a half years following his conviction on serious charges related to child sexual assault. In addition to his prison sentence, King will be required to register as a sex offender for the remainder of his life, a measure that underscores the severity of his crimes and the ongoing risk he poses to the community.
King was initially taken into custody after voluntarily surrendering himself to law enforcement authorities in October 2015. His decision to turn himself in came amid ongoing investigations into allegations of child rape. Following his surrender, he appeared before the Liverpool and Knowsley Adult Remand Court to face the charges brought against him.
However, King’s legal troubles deepened when he failed to appear at court on the scheduled date to answer the charges. As a result, a warrant was issued for his arrest, highlighting the seriousness of his case and the authorities’ determination to bring him to justice. The charges against him stem from an incident involving the alleged rape of a nine-year-old girl, which reportedly took place in the Lake District between December 2012 and December 2013.
Details surrounding the case remain sensitive, but the conviction and sentencing reflect the judicial system’s stance on protecting vulnerable children and punishing those who commit such heinous acts. The case has garnered significant attention in the local community, particularly in St Helens, where King resides, and in the Lake District, where the alleged crimes occurred. The authorities continue to emphasize the importance of safeguarding children and ensuring that offenders are held accountable for their actions.
