Scotland Sex Offender, Ricki Anderson, found guilty of grave sexual offences has been sentenced to seven years and nine months in prison.
On Wednesday, April 23, 2025, at the High Court in Glasgow, 37-year-old Ricki Anderson was sentenced to imprisonment, registered as a sex offender, and issued a 15-year non-harassment order.
On Friday, 21 February 2025, Ricki Anderson was convicted at Kilmarnock Sheriff Court for charges involving rape, drug trafficking, and theft.
In June 2021, Ricki Anderson assaulted a woman in a vehicle situated between East Lothian and Dumfries. Regrettably, she has already passed away.
In early 2022, Ricki Anderson assaulted another woman in a flat in Dumfries.
Detective Inspector Graeme Robertson of the Public Protection Unit at Dumfries and Galloway Division said: “Although one of the victims in this case has passed away, it was right her evidence was heard in court through the reading of statements. Our thoughts remain with her family and the other victim, and I hope this sentencing offers them some comfort as they move forward with their lives.
“I would also like to reassure our communities that we are committed to investigating all reports of a sexual offence and we are determined to bring those responsible to justice. I urge anyone who has been the victim of any offence of this nature to contact us where you will be fully supported by our officers and partner agencies.”
