48 year-old convicted of several crimes, including rape and possession of indecent images
Last updated 28th Nov 2025
A man has been sentenced to 16 years in prison for numerous child sex offences dating back as far as 2003.
Kieran Logan, 48, of Rushden Road in Buntingford, was jailed yesterday, Thursday 27th November 2025, at St Albans Crown Court.
Logan’s offending came to light in May 2024, after one of his survivors reported him to the police. Investigators uncovered multiple crimes committed by Logan, leading to his arrest.
Further evidence was found when his electronic devices were seized in August 2025, revealing thousands of indecent images of children and two additional victims.
Crimes and sentencing
At a previous hearing in September 2025, Logan pleaded guilty to a range of charges, including:
Three counts of making indecent images of children
One count of sexual activity with a child
One count of sexual assault of a child
Three counts of sexual assault by penetration
Two counts of rape of a child
One count of sexual assault by penetration
Logan was sentenced to a 16-year custodial sentence, along with an extended licence period of six years.
He was also placed on the Sex Offenders Register for life and given a Sexual Harm Prevention Order with stringent conditions for life. Restraining orders have been put in place to protect the victims.
Police emphasise victim support
Detective Constable Debbie West, of the Joint Child Protection Investigation Team (JCPIT), praised Logan’s victims and their families for their bravery throughout the investigation.
“Firstly, I would like to commend the victims and their families for their support during this investigation. I want to commend them all for their incredible bravery in the face of an extremely difficult time.
“Kieran Logan is a dangerous offender and has had lasting effects on his victims, but I do hope that seeing him sentenced will go some way in helping them to move on from his abhorrent crimes.
“Logan preyed on young girls and used his position as an older man to hold power over them. He’s a sexual predator who will now remain behind bars for years to come, and his sentence reflects the severity of his crimes and the harm he has caused.
“We know it can be incredibly challenging to come forward to report incidents of sexual assault. We take reports of sexual offences very seriously and we will do everything we can to ensure that victims feel like their voices are heard and that offenders are brought to justice.”
