A Dumfries man who raped three schoolgirls has been released from prison after serving a six-year sentence. Liam Hanratty attacked three girls – aged 11, 13 and 16 – after grooming them online.
The mum of one of Hanratty’s victims said: “He got six years but my daughter got a life sentence. I want to let parents of other young girls know that he is out and to make them aware of who he is, what he’s done and not to touch him with a 10 foot barge pole.”
Hanratty was 16 when he struck in Dumfries between January and August 2016. Two of the attacks happened in a house in the town and another in a shed.
