Ex-Pub DJ Jailed For Indecently Assaulting Teen Girl

A barman/DJ, who seduced the under-age daughter of the owners of a Norwich pub over a decade ago, is starting an eighteen-month prison sentence.

Lee Daniel Dickens, 39, of Biggin Way, Upper Norwood, was convicted by a Croydon Crown Court jury of one count of indecently assaulting the girl between 2000 and 2002.

The jury heard the defendant, from south London, moved into the pub when the victim was a young teen and she told them: “We had sex when I was fourteen.”

Dickens claimed he only had a sexual relationship with her after she turned sixteen years-old and it was consensual.

She told the court: “Lee told me I shouldn't say anything to anyone because of the age difference and he would get into trouble.”

Dickens was cleared by the jury of two counts of rape and one count of sexual assault, which the victim claimed occured in south London.

He was ordered to sign the sex offenders register.
