PETER TYLER OF MARGATE SENTENCED TO 14 YEARS FOR ABUSING TWO GIRLS IN CANTERBURY
In May 2013, a disturbing case unfolded at Canterbury Crown Court involving Peter Tyler, a 54-year-old man from Millmead Road, Margate, who was convicted of a series of heinous sexual offenses against two young girls.
The court heard that Tyler had engaged in a prolonged and calculated campaign of sexual abuse targeting vulnerable children, actions that shocked the local community and drew widespread condemnation.
Throughout the trial, Tyler attempted to defend himself by claiming that his sexual interests were exclusively homosexual and that he had no inclination towards girls.
He argued that he could not have committed the offenses because of his sexual orientation.
Despite his assertions, the jury found his explanations unconvincing and convicted him on ten separate counts of sexual assault involving the two victims.
Judge Simon James delivered a stern sentence, condemning Tyler for his predatory behavior.
He sentenced him to 11 years in prison, with an additional three years on license, emphasizing the severity of his crimes.
