Man jailed for non recent child sex offences in Hull
A man from Hull has been sentenced to a total of 15 years behind bars, and ordered to remain on the Sex Offenders Register for life.
He was found guilty of non recent child sex offences against three victims.
36 year old Martin Tidder of Brazil Street was found guilty of four counts of rape, four counts of assaulting a boy by touching, three counts of causing or inciting a boy under 13 to engage in sexual activity, and two counts of sexual assault of a child.
Detective Constable Rebecca Davison from our Protecting Vulnerable People Unit said: “Rape and sexual abuse against boys and men is wildly underreported, and I would like to start by acknowledging and commending the three men for coming forward and reporting what had happened to them as such young children.
“It is never easy to report crimes of this nature, especially as an adult who was subjected to horrific crimes and stripped of innocence at such a young age, but because one of them initially opened up to someone they trusted, this led to a ripple effect of disclosures against Tidder, enabling detectives to build a significant case against him and bring him before the courts, even years after he committed the crimes.”
