Evesham man jailed for 25 years for multiple child sex offences
32-year-old Shaul Samson was found guilty at Worcester Crown Court following a trial
A man from the Evesham area has been jailed for 25 years for multiple sexual offences against a child.
Shaul Samson, 32, of HMP Hewell, was sentenced at Worcester Crown Court today (7 July) after being found guilty in May (2026) of multiple sexual offences against a child under thirteen.
Samson must serve at least two thirds (14 years) of his sentence before being considered for parole.
He was also given an indefinite Sexual Harm Prevention Order (SHPO) and ordered to sign the sex offenders’ register for life.
The court heard in October 2025 the victim disclosed the offences which took place over an 18-month period to a third party who then reported it to West Mercia Police.
Samson was arrested on 10 October and a police search of his home discovered numerous sex toys, bondage items, lube and condoms.
Digital forensics of his phone also showed he sent sexual messages to his victim and showed them explicit images and videos of other children as well as videos of him engaging in sexual activity with adults.
Samson denied the charges in court in November last year (2025) but was found guilty following a trial and today was sentenced for the following offences:
- One count of rape of a child under 13 – 25 years (21 years plus four years on licence)
- Two further counts of rape of a child under 13 – 18 years to run concurrently
- One count of attempting to rape a child under 13 – 11 years concurrent
- Four counts of assaulting a child under 13 by penetration – 12 years concurrent
- Causing or inciting a child under 13 to engage in sexual activity – six years concurrent
- Four counts of sexual assault of a child under 13 – six years concurrent
- Engaging in sexual activity in front of a child – three years concurrent
- Four counts of causing a child to watch a sexual act – four years concurrent
- Sexual communication with a child - 18 months concurrent
- Making an indecent photograph of a child – one year concurrent
Detective Constable Susie Woolf, of the Public Protection Unit (PPU), said: “We are pleased to get this lengthy sentence for Samson whose disgusting predatory behaviour has had a terrible impact upon his victim.
“We hope this will feel like some sense of some justice for his victim and we would like to praise them for their bravery and courage in reporting his vile offending.
“He is now behind bars where he belongs so we hope this court result will encourage other victims of rape or sexual assault or those who know of such crimes to come forward and speak to us so we can attempt to bring their abusers to justice too.
“We will always listen to you and act where appropriate to bring predators like Samson before the courts with the aim of securing justice and custodial sentences as in this case.”
