A predator who abused two young boys alongside an ex-Bay City Rollers manager has been caged for sex attacks spanning across six decades.
John Wilson, 80, was sentenced to 12 years and nine months at the High Court in Glasgow today for a catalogue of crimes that took place between 1963 and 2019. During the trial, the court heard how the vile pensioner was a known associate of former Bay City Rollers manager, Tam Paton, who is now dead.
Two of their victims bravely told the jury how they, as teenage boys, were given alcohol and drugs during a booze-fuelled party at Paton's home in Edinburgh. One described how once he was heavily intoxicated, the heinous duo both went on to sexually assault him, when he was aged just 16.
