| Red Rose Database
Staines Child Sexual Abuser
In a case that has shocked the community of Staines, a young man named Tyler Eastley has been handed a significant prison sentence after being convicted of a serious sexual assault involving a five-year-old girl. The incident, which took place in July 2018, led to a lengthy investigation and a subsequent trial at Guildford Crown Court, culminating in a verdict that has left many residents deeply disturbed.
Eastley, aged 20 and residing on Lowlands Drive in Staines-upon-Thames, was found guilty of sexually assaulting a female child under the age of 13 by penetration. The court proceedings, which lasted four days, concluded with the judge delivering her judgment on November 2. The charges stemmed from an allegation made by the young girl in August 2017, prompting authorities to launch an investigation that ultimately led to Eastley's arrest and formal charges earlier in the year.
During the sentencing hearing, Judge Alexia Durran described Eastley as “an immature young man” with a troubling history of substance abuse. She noted that there was evidence of “a degree of grooming” prior to the assault, indicating a calculated element to his actions. The judge emphasized the severity of the crime and the impact on the victim, who has been profoundly affected by the ordeal.
In her sentencing, Judge Durran ordered that Eastley serve a maximum of nine years in prison. Additionally, he will be subject to a period on licence, during which he could be recalled to prison if he commits further offences. The judge specified that Eastley must serve a minimum of four-and-a-half years before he becomes eligible for parole. Furthermore, a sexual harm prevention order was imposed, restricting him from staying in the same household as or having unsupervised contact with girls under 16 unless their parents are informed and give their consent. His name will also be entered onto the sex offenders register, ensuring ongoing monitoring of his activities.
Prosecuting barrister Allister Walker read a statement from the victim’s mother, describing the profound changes in her daughter’s behaviour since the incident. The statement revealed that the young girl has become a different child, displaying fear of men wearing hats and police cars, as she associates these with Eastley. The victim’s mother expressed her distress, stating, “She felt guilty and that she was to blame.”
In the aftermath of the trial, the victim’s family publicly expressed their devastation and gratitude towards the police. The mother highlighted the support received from Surrey Police, particularly praising Officer Brian Rampley from Staines police station for his dedication and ongoing assistance over the past 11 months. The family’s statement underscored their hope that such a tragedy will never happen again and emphasized the importance of raising awareness about the dangers posed by offenders like Eastley in their community.
Overall, this case has brought to light the serious issues surrounding child protection and the importance of vigilant law enforcement. The community of Staines is left to grapple with the aftermath of this disturbing incident, while the legal system has taken decisive action to ensure that Tyler Eastley faces the consequences of his actions and remains under supervision for years to come.
