Vile paedo jailed for 16 years after filming himself raping young girl 120 times and grooming a second victim
Depraved Lee Stuart Curley owned over 1000 videos and images of children being assaulted
A SICK paedophile has been jailed after he filmed himself on his phone and iPad repeatedly raping a young girl.
Lee Stuart Curley took over 120 videos and images of the depraved sexual assaults on the young girl under 13 over a 10 month period.
The 36-year-old recorded the attacks on his mobile devices between May 2015 and March 2016.
A second victim was also groomed by Curley over a two-year period between 2012 and 2014.
The vile pervert owned 1,006 videos and images of children being abused.
He was sentenced to a total of 16 years behind bars at Snaresbrook Crown Court on Friday and will also be subject to a Sexual Harm Prevention Order for life.
Curley, of Tower Hamlets, east London, was described in court as a predatory sex offender, after evidence of his sickening attacks was found on his iPad.
The predator initially denied the sexual attacks and claimed he had no knowledge of any indecent images, but was charged on March 8, three days after his arrest.
Despite initially pleading not guilty at court, Curley changed his plea at a subsequent hearing at Snaresbrook Crown Court on May 17, when presented with the weight of evidence against him.
He pleaded guilty to four offences in relation to the assaults on the young girl, rape of a girl under 13, possessing an extreme pornographic image portraying rape, possessing indecent photographs of a child and making indecent photographs of a child.
He was also charged with six offences in relation to grooming and pleaded guilty to three offences of inciting a girl aged 13 to 15 to engage in sexual activity and three offences of causing a child under 13 to look at an image of sexual activity.
DC Carla Goymer-Ellice of the Sexual Offences, Exploitation and Child Abuse Command, said: "My thoughts throughout this inquiry have been with those who suffered at the hands of this man.
"In 14 years of investigating serious and sexual crime, this was one of the worst cases I have dealt with.
"It was a terrible series of assaults that upset even experienced investigators, but we were all fully committed to bringing the man responsible to justice."
