Dean Marroni, a 34-year-old man, has been sentenced to five months in prison for sexually assaulting a 14-year-old girl. The incident took place on a bench at Sandylands Promenade in Morecambe, Lancashire one September afternoon. The teenage girl's quick thinking and bravery led to Marroni's arrest and conviction.
As the girl sat on the bench, Marroni approached her and struck up a conversation. However, his intentions were far from innocent as he proceeded to sexually assault her. In a moment of panic, the girl ran away but then stopped to take a photo of Marroni with her phone. She then handed the photo over to the police, which proved to be crucial in their investigation.
Thanks to the girl's courageous act, Marroni was soon arrested at his home by the authorities. In court, he pleaded guilty to the charge and was sentenced to five months in prison. In addition, he was also given a 10-year sexual harm prevention order and was required to register as a sex offender.
Detective Constable Zoe Hall, who worked on the case, expressed relief and satisfaction at the outcome. She stated that the sexual assault on the teenage girl was a disturbing incident and that they take all reports of sexual assault very seriously. The police will thoroughly investigate such cases to ensure justice is served.
This was not the first time Marroni had been involved in such heinous acts. In 2021, he was convicted of four sexual assaults, including one on a woman and three on girls at Lancaster train station. In that incident, he had approached a woman under the guise of conducting a survey. However, he proceeded to massage her foot and tickle her feet after removing her shoe and sock.
Marroni then turned his attention to three girls who were waiting for a train. He kissed their trainers and tried to touch their feet before walking away and then returning. Despite these actions, he was not sentenced to jail but instead received a two-year community order, was required to register as a sex offender for five years, and had to pay a victim surcharge of £90.
In light of this, it is clear that the teenage girl's actions were crucial in bringing Marroni to justice. Her bravery and quick thinking not only led to his conviction but also helped protect potential future victims. The police are thankful for her actions and hope that this serves as a warning to others who may have similar intentions. Sexual assault is a serious crime and will not be tolerated.
