Rapist Preyed On Young Girl During Five Years Of Abuse

A sick rapist, who repeatedly attacked a young girl during five years of terror, has been caged.

The victim – who was only twelve years-old when the abuse began – was raped two to three times a week and had two abortions.

Adrian Donaldson, 37, of Tottenham, north London was sentenced to twenty years imprisonment.

He was sentenced at Wood Green Crown Court after pleading guilty to seven counts of rape, attempted rape, sexual assault and causing a person to engage in sexual activity without consent.

Between January, 2015 and January, this year at an address in Tottenham, Donaldson repeatedly raped the under-age girl, who was known to him.

Donaldson would rape the victim after he had been drinking alcohol and taking drugs.

He would also call the victim and ask her to send nude photos and would ask her to visit him. 

He would then make her strip and then rape her.

The victim fell pregnant with his child twice during 2017 and 2018 and had an abortion both times. 

She told her mother that she fell pregnant by her boyfriend at school so not to elude that it was Donaldson’s.

Donaldson told the victim not to tell anyone about the rapes or he would accuse her of coming on to him. 

This led the victim to feel suicidal as she felt she could not report it.

On Saturday, January 25 police were called by the victim’s mother after she found out about the rapes and pregnancies. 

Officers attended Donaldson’s address and found him drunk and attempting to engage in sexual activity with the victim.

Police arrested Donaldson for sexual assault by touching a female under 18 years-old. 

In interview, Donaldson denied all allegations stating that it was fabricated.

Detective Sergeant Gill Cousins, of the North Area Basic Command Unit, said:“This is a horrific crime and the victim was subjected to a horrendous ordeal. 

The effects of these crimes on the victim will undoubtedly remain with her forever.

“I commend the bravery the victim has shown to help us bring this man to justice.

“I urge anyone who has been a victim of sexual assault either recently or historically to come forward and speak with police."
