Isn't 'Rapist Is Jailed' A Much Shorter Headline...

...as well as being far more accurate?

Liam Stanley Hunter, 25, knew her real age when he stayed with the girl’s family under a false name and slept with her.

As soon as her parents found out his real name, they drove him to a police station, said Nick Adlington, prosecuting.

Touching faith in the justice system, there....

After Hunter was released on bail, the 15-year-old girl went missing and her father found her with Hunter at the local bus station.

Hunter, of no fixed address, pleaded guilty to two charges of sexual activity with a child and meeting a child following sexual grooming. He was jailed for three and a half years, made subject to a sexual harm prevention order for six years and put on the sex offenders’ register for life.

The Recorder of York, Judge Sean Morris, said it was persistent offending and it was obvious what would have happened but for the girl’s father finding the pair at the bus station.

In other parts of the world, the father would have resolved matters himself. But we are 'civilised'.
