Scarborough child rapist jailed
A SCARBOROUGH man was today jailed for 12-years after being found guilty of raping a child under the age of 13.
Andrew Bishop, 38, who was sentenced at Leeds Crown Court yesterday, had denied the offence but was found guilty at York Crown Court in May after a five-day hearing.
Sentencing, Judge John Taylor said: "I am aware of the effect it will have had on the victim and I note that you have not yet shown remorse for your offence."
The victim's mother told the Evening News after sentencing: "We have had a terrible year and are now relieved we can put all this behind us."
