East Lothian race team boss attacked two children on a karting trip

An East Lothian man has been convicted for a spate of child sex offences including two counts of engaging in sexual activity with a child.

Andrew Fairley, originally from Musselburgh, was sentenced to eight years in prison at Carlisle Crown court on July 1. Fairley was said by police to have “used his position of trust to exploit his victims for his own fulfilment.”

The 58-year-old was accused of a series of serious child sex offences including causing a child under 13 to watch an image of sexual activity, engaging in sexual communications with a child and inciting a boy under 13 to engage in sexual activity. He was also convicted for engaging in sexual activity in the presence of a child and sexual assault on a male.
