Holly Rouse-Sweeney, a 37-year-old private maths tutor, has been sentenced to six years in jail for sexually abusing one of her teenage students. The victim, a vulnerable boy, had been lured by Rouse-Sweeney to her old home in Nottinghamshire, where she engaged in sexual activity with him on multiple occasions. Despite knowing that the boy was under the age of consent, Rouse-Sweeney continued with her actions, which ultimately led to her arrest.
The incident came to light when the boy's mother discovered inappropriate WhatsApp messages on his phone and immediately contacted the police. Upon investigation, it was revealed that Rouse-Sweeney had even acknowledged the boy's true age in her diary entries on her laptop, which the police thoroughly examined. She later admitted to the abuse and claimed that her actions were influenced by her longstanding mental health condition.
Last Friday, Rouse-Sweeney was sentenced and added to the sex offender's register. She is now subject to a sexual harm prevention order, which restricts her activities and movements after her release from jail. However, the specifics of this order are not clear. In addition to this, she has also been given a restraining order, prohibiting any future contact with her victim.
Detective Constable Keeley Bringhurst, who specializes in child abuse cases at Nottinghamshire Police, described Rouse-Sweeney's actions as a "breach of trust" towards the vulnerable child. She went on to say that instead of fulfilling her duties as a tutor, Rouse-Sweeney took advantage of the boy for her own sexual gratification. The detective also expressed her hope that the victim and his family find some solace in the fact that the perpetrator has received a strong punishment for her heinous actions.
