Kalvin Dennis was just 17 himself when he pinned the boy down and told him: “Let's get freaky.” The victim had been tempted into Dennis’ room to be shown his model train set.

Dennis, now 19, was given a suspended sentence at Leeds Crown Court because he was a child at the time of his offending. The court heard that Dennis had spent much of his childhood living in care and, in May 2023, was living at a home in Derby.
