Three men have been convicted of the serious crime of rape. These men, Paul Maxwell, Kayon Bhola, and Jeremiah Jackson, made a conscious decision to sexually assault a 13-year-old girl who they found alone and vulnerable at a London Underground station. Their victim was simply trying to travel from her home to London, but instead, she was targeted and attacked by these three men.
The attack took place at Hammersmith tube station, where the men first encountered the young girl. They then proceeded to travel towards Maxwell's flat, where they carried out the horrific act of rape. Despite the attackers' attempts to hide their crime, the police were able to gather evidence through CCTV footage and in-depth phone analysis. This, along with the victim's brave testimony, led to the conviction of all three men.
During the trial, the girl bravely shared a victim impact statement with the court. In her statement, she expressed the deep emotional and psychological impact that the attack has had on her. She stated that she has gone over the events of that night countless times, wondering if there was anything she could have done to prevent it. However, she realized that no matter what she did, the outcome would have been the same. These three men, who were much older and stronger than her, had planned and executed their attack as soon as they saw her at the station. She was simply a vulnerable victim who was in the wrong place at the wrong time.
The three men responsible for this heinous crime have been identified as Paul Maxwell, Kayon Bhola, and Jeremiah Jackson. Maxwell, who is 24 years old and from Wood Lane Estates, W12, has been sentenced to 12 and a half years in prison. Bhola, who has no fixed address, and Jackson, who lives in Longford Court, W12, have both been sentenced to 11 years in jail.
The lead investigator on this case, Detective Constable Will Murphy, expressed his gratitude to the victim for her bravery in coming forward and reporting the crime. He also commended his team for their dedicated efforts in gathering the evidence that led to the conviction of the three men. He hopes that the victim can find some closure and feel that justice has been served.
This case serves as a reminder of the despicable nature of sexual assault and the devastating impact it can have on its victims. The Metropolitan Police are here to support and provide care for victims of sexual assault, and they urge anyone who has experienced such a crime to come forward and seek help.
