A paedophile heckled the woman he abused as a child in court as she revealed the impact his crimes had on her. Kenneth Kavanagh was jailed for 20 years, decades after he raped a seven-year-old boy and sexually assaulted a girl when she was six.
The 74-year-old’s historic offences involved assaulting a girl and forcing her to watch him masturbate, Liverpool Crown Court heard yesterday (Tuesday) afternoon. Kavanagh, of St Andrew’s Court in Ellesmere Port, also plied her with alcohol, The Liverpool Echo reports.
Kavanagh went on to rape a boy and forced him to perform sex acts upon him on multiple occasions. The predator “used violence against him to bend him to his will” and told him not to tell anyone about his abuse.
