A former Radio One DJ has been convicted of a series of child sex offences. Mark Page, who worked at the station in the 1980s, was found guilty of four out of five allegations involving youngsters as young as 12.
The disgraced DJ, who was also known on Teesside after spending more than 20 years as match announcer for Middlesbrough FC, had denied all the allegations which date back to 2016 and 2019. He was accused of five counts of arranging the commission of a child sex offence.
A jury at Teesside Crown Court convicted him of four of the allegations. He was cleared of a fifth. Two of these offences were committed remotely from the UK in 2016, while two happened in the Philippines on separate trips made by Page in 2016 and 2019, reports Teesside Live.
