| Red Rose Database
Runcorn Sexual Abuser
In February 2008, Robert Gordon Mattrevers, a 29-year-old sex offender from Cameron Avenue, Weston Point, Runcorn, was spared a prison sentence after a court ruling at Mold Crown Court.
The court sentenced Mattrevers to a three-year community order for failing to notify police of his address while on the Sex Offenders' Register. Prosecutor James Cullen stated, "It was clear that they had all once shared a bed. He formed a relationship with a new partner in the Mold area, and the relationship became fairly strong, with him living with her between October and December of last year. Her at the time was unaware of his background. She has spoken to the police and still wishes to continue her relationship with him. It has not affected things significantly."
Mattrevers, who previously served eight months in jail in April 2005 after admitting eight offences, including downloading child pornography, was reminded that he was required to inform police within three days if he stayed at any address for more than seven days.
Defence lawyer Henry Gow commented, "The couple was no longer cohabiting. They still saw each other, and she had signed a contract with social services. The community order would be beneficial for both of them and the defendant."
As part of his sentence, Mattrevers will face various conditions, including supervision and mandatory attendance at a Home Office-accredited sex offender programme for two years.
