Man jailed for raping teenage girl

A 29-year-old man from Gwynedd has been imprisoned for raping a teenage girl.

Kyle Martin John Parry, formerly of the Caernarfon area, appeared at Caernarfon Crown Court on Tuesday, 10 June.

Parry, who had previous convictions for sexually assaulting a five-year-old boy in 2017, was sentenced to eight years and nine months in prison for the historic offences.

His sentence related to charges of sexual activity with a child, and sexual assault by penetration.

The victim was 15 years-old when the offences occurred in 2015.

DC Dominique Swift said: “I wish to praise the bravery of the victim in this case for trusting us and talking to us. 

“She showed tremendous courage in court today and chose to read her Victim Personal Statement directly to the man who attacked her. 

“Please let this be a message to others who may be suffering in silence.  We will listen.  We will do everything in our power to bring those who inflict sexual harm to justice.  We are here to support you.”
