Back in 2007, Rikki Patterson, the Farnborough Paedophile, a 16-year-old male who sexually assaulted two younger boys in north Hampshire, received a minimum term of four and a half years in secure accommodation.
A 14-year-old was assaulted in January, and an 11-year-old was attacked while traversing woodlands on 27 March by Rikki Patterson.
Rikki Patterson, from Farnborough, pleaded guilty to the rapes he committed at the age of 15 in his hometown.
During sentencing at Winchester Crown Court, the judge stated that the victims endured a “humiliating and traumatic ordeal.”
Judge David Griffiths, who removed legal protections safeguarding the boy’s name, stated that Rikki Patterson will remain incarcerated until he is deemed no longer a threat to public safety.
