An elderly paedophile from Swindon may die in prison after being found guilty of a number of sexual offences against a young girl more than 50 years ago.

81-year-old Arthur Johnson, of Meadowcroft, was sentenced at Swindon Crown Court on 23 March for sexually assaulted a girl numerous times when she was aged between five and 11.

He was given a custodial sentence of 15 years, and an extended licence period of one year, for the serious crimes committed in the 1960s and 1970s.

Detective Constable Mike Armishaw, of Swindon CID, said: “I am pleased that the sentence handed out by the judge reflects the seriousness of the offences committed by Johnson, regardless of his years.

“His actions were despicable, and I cannot imagine the impact his behaviour has had on his victim, who has lived with this for many years. I would like to take this opportunity to praise her for having both the courage and the confidence to come forward after so many years had passed. I hope that this sentencing gives her some form of closure.

“Wiltshire Police takes all reports of this nature extremely seriously, regardless of the amount of time that has passed since. We will always seek to obtain justice for victims and ensure they are provided with the support they need.

“Please contact police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.”

Victims can also seek support and counselling from the Sexual Assault Referral Centre (SARC) based at the New Swindon Sanctuary – they can be contacted on the 24-hour helpline 0808 168 0024.
