Man jailed for sexual abuse of Doncaster teenager who fell pregnant

Glen Sambrook, 43, was sentenced at Sheffield Crown Court today (Tuesday) after admitting 11 separate offences against the Doncaster girl.

The court heard how his victim, who cannot be named for legal reasons, fell pregnant as a result of one of the rapes.

Police began an investigation in September 2015 after the girl reported that Sambrook and raped and sexually assaulted her over a 13-month period.

Detective Constable Nichole Russell, who led the investigation, said: “Although Sambrook has accepted responsibility for his awful crimes, this does not detract from the significant impact this abuse has had on his victim.

“He manipulated and exploited his teenage victim, forcing her to commit sexual acts against her will.

“I am pleased he is now behind bars and I hope his victim, who has been remarkably brave throughout our investigation, is reassured knowing her abuser is in prison and can no longer harm her.”

Sambrook, formerly of Conisbrough, Doncaster, admitted two counts of rape, one count of sexual assault, six counts of sexual activity with a child, and two counts of paying for sexual services of a child.

He was sentenced to nine years in prison and given a restraining order.
