Dillon Robb, 29, the HMP Hewell Paedophile, was convicted of four charges of participating in penetrative sexual activity with a girl aged 13 to 15 and two counts of engaging in sexual communications with a child.
He received his sentence today (Friday, December 13) at Shrewsbury Crown Court. Robb received an indefinite sexual harm prevention order and has been permanently registered as a sex offender.
The incidents occurred in Telford during August to September 2023.
Detective Sergeant Benjamin Poppleton said “I would like to recognise the bravery of the victim in coming forward and helping to secure this sentence. I hope today’s sentence brings some justice.
We will continue to crackdown on predators like Robb, and ensure their offending is punished. I hope this case demonstrates to the community of Shropshire that West Mercia Police take reports of sexual offences seriously, and won’t hesitate to investigate thoroughly and robustly to bring offenders to justice.”
