RAYMOND DUFFY CAUGHT IN BELLISHILL SCANDAL WITH SCHOOLGIRL

In a serious case that has shocked the community of Bellshill, Raymond Duffy, a 22-year-old man residing on Crinan Place, has admitted to engaging in unlawful sexual activity with a minor. The incident, which took place over a span of three months earlier this year, involved a girl whose age ranged between 13 and 16 years old.

Details of the case emerged during a hearing at Hamilton Sheriff Court, where Duffy pleaded guilty to the charges. The court was informed that the sexual encounters occurred repeatedly over the specified period, raising significant concerns about the safety and well-being of the young girl involved.

Following the guilty plea, Sheriff Marie Smart decided to defer sentencing until November 11. This delay allows for the preparation of reports that will likely include assessments of Duffy’s background and any mitigating factors before a final judgment is made. The case has garnered considerable attention within the local community, highlighting ongoing issues related to youth safety and the importance of safeguarding minors from exploitation.

As the legal process continues, the community awaits the court’s final decision, which will determine the consequences for Raymond Duffy and serve as a reminder of the serious nature of such offenses.
