Married paedophile laughed and threatened girls who begged him to stop abuse

A paedophile who sexually abused two girls laughed and threatened them when they begged him to stop.

David Blackburn, 56, preyed on the children from when they were aged just nine and seven-years-old. He was a teenage boy himself when he started molesting them.

But he continued as an adult, even after he got married and had children of his own. Jailing him for 19 years, a judge today told the pervert he had "grotesquely abused" situations "to use both girls as your sexual playthings".
