A 31-year-old man, Rapist Gavin Green, has been sentenced to seven years in prison for sexual offences against two women in Musselburgh and Penicuik, occurring between 2011 and 2022.
Gavin Green received his sentence at the High Court in Edinburgh on Thursday, April 3, 2025. He was previously convicted in the same court in March 2025.
Detective Sergeant Lynsey Thomson stated: “Green is a perilous predator who justly confronts an extended incarceration due to his reprehensible conduct.”
“I would like to commend the women for their strength in coming forward to report his offending and throughout the legal process. I hope this conclusion will help them as they move forward with their lives.
“I’d urge anyone who has been a victim of physical or sexual abuse to report it to us, regardless of when it happened. All reports are thoroughly investigated and we have specially trained officers and partner agencies who will support you throughout.”
