London: An 11-year-old boy, who admitted to attacking a nine-year-old boy 15 times, has become Britain’s youngest male-on-male rapist.
The boy is from Blackpool, Lancashire. He was only caught when the victim’s mother heard suspicious whispering on the baby monitor in her son’s bedroom.
He also sexually assaulted a seven-year-old boy and then twice sexually assaulted an 11-year-old disabled boy while on bail for the rapes.
The defendant has pleaded guilty to one charge of raping the same boy 15 times and three charges of sexual touching.
The boy’s dark hair was neatly cut and he wore a smart dark jacket with a shirt and tie when he stood in a secure dock alongside a security officer.
The defendant was committed in youth custody to appear for sentence at Preston Crown Court by District Judge Jeff Brailsford sitting at Blackpool Magistrates Court.
