'Deplorable' man jailed for sexually abusing 12-year-old girl and boy, 13

TWO survivors have been praised by police after giving evidence against a drug dealer who sexually abused them.

Jason Usher, 36, of Fosse Way Prison, Leicester, denied all the allegations but, after a crown court trial, the jury unanimously found him guilty of the historical sexual abuse.
