A fireman threatened to rape a lone 16-year-old girl in a dark street. Michael Roberts, 34, preyed on her in Glasgow's Maryhill in the early hours of November 29, 2021.
The girl told a jury that Roberts approached her in his car and aggressively told her to get in. Ex-amateur boxer Roberts earlier offered to help her avoid a “bunch of boys” he claimed were further along the road.
The victim refused before being told by Roberts that “he was going to rape" her. Another 16-year-old girl was approached in the city’s Cardonald 10 days later.
