A rapist who sexually abused two young girls when he was still a schoolboy was jailed for six years on Friday.
Judge Thomas Welsh KC said Adams had told jurors at his earlier trial that the children he abused were"wicked liars" but was disbelieved. But the judge told him he was satisfied that the offences were so serious because of their nature, the ages of the young children, the harm caused and the frequency with which they were committed that a non-custodial sentence was not an option.
He told Adams, formerly of Viewmount Crescent, Strathaven, in South Lanarkshire, that he would be placed on the sex offender's register indefinitely. She said he was very young at the time of the crimes but there had been no further offending since then.
