Michael Sefton sex offender

This year, we reported that Michael Sefton, the Great Barr Sex Offender, confessed to two charges of sexual assault and indecent exposure.

The court previously heard that Michael Sefton purposefully sexually touched a woman without her consent and exposed his genitals at Worcestershire Royal Hospital on April 25 of last year, intending to cause alarm or distress to an observer.

The 60-year-old, Michael Sefton, attended Worcester Crown Court on Friday, June 2, anticipating sentencing.

But at the start of the hearing Michael Aspinall, prosecuting, explained Michael Sefton, of Stanhope Way, Great Barr, Birmingham, had admitted a further offence of sexual assault of a similar nature at Worcester Magistrates Court last week, .

In that hearing magistrates chose to wait for the outcome of the crown court matters before sentencing and kept the matter at magistrates court.

The prosecutor asked for an adjournment so the matters could be tied together with Jason Aris, defending, supporting that application.

Recorder John Benson KC agreed to the adjournment so that magistrates could send the other matter up to the high court.

The judge told Michael Sefton, who was given unconditional bail, to return to the crown court for his sentencing on July 14.
