10 July 2025

Wayne Cleaver and Tom Worden have successfully concluded the prosecution of a four week trial involving multiple sexual offences against three child complainants spanning a 20 year period.

The offending began in the Caribbean continuing when the offender relocated to the UK. Amongst the myriad of complexities was the extra-territorial jurisdiction of the UK over historic offences committed in British Overseas Territories. Sentencing has been adjourned to a later date.

Wayne and Tom were instructed by Gemma Lee of the Essex CPS RASSO Team.
