Abuse victim support group unimpressed by sentence

A man whose conviction over serious sexual offences prompted outrage has had his sentence slightly increased - due to a technicality. Neil Wilson, who's 41, was handed an eight month suspended sentence last week in a case which saw his 13 year old victim described in court as "predatory". Appearing via video link at Snaresbrook crown court in east London, he was handed a twelve month suspended sentence. Sue Cox is from Survivors Voice - a support group for abuse victims.

She told Premier's News Hour she wasn't impressed by today's development:

A Monthly Gift Of $11 Makes A World Of Difference

In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.

Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.

For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.

Your monthly support will make a world of difference. Thank you.
