Church volunteer, 66, sent messages to girl, 15, about her breasts and slapping her backside

A church volunteer messaged a 15-year-old girl about slapping her backside and made comments about her breasts growing. A court has heard how Raymond Bown, 66, contacted the girl over social media.

Mark Achurch, prosecuting, said the offence took place in September 2021. He said Bown made contact with the teenager and made comments about the size of her breasts as well as a reference to slapping her backside.

The prosecutor said the police were informed and an investigation began. Bown, of East Avenue, Mickleover, pleaded guilty to engaging in sexual communication with a child, reports DerbyshireLive.
