'Predator' targeted two young girls in 'disgusting and corrupting' offences

HE 'ROBBED' BOTH GIRLS OF THEIR 'INNOCENCE'

- By MARK NAYLOR

A “predatory” pervert targeted two young girls for highly sexualised behaviour towards them, including calling one of them a “dirty girl” and becoming “besotted” with her.

Mark Oliver “robbed” both girls of their “innocence” and he knew that it was “disgusting, wrong and corrupting” behaviour by him when he asked one of them for sex, Hull Crown Court heard.

Oliver, 57, of Westerdale Grove, off Southcoates Lane, east Hull, but recently in custody on remand, admitted sexual communication with a child and two offences of inciting a child to engage in sexual activity, involving one of the girls. He also admitted a series of other offences of making indecent images of a child, involving both girls.

Ben Hammersley, prosecuting, said that Oliver had sexualised conversations with the girls. He asked one of them for sex, talked about specific acts and called her a “dirty girl”.
