A 35-year-old Mansfield Paedophile, Tanya Grundy, was sentenced to 22 years in prison, back in 2018, after being convicted of the egregious sexual abuse of two young boys.
Tanya Grundy, residing on Chesterfield Road North in Pleasley, Mansfield, commenced the abuse of one of the boys at the age of four, as stated in Nottingham Crown Court.
Tanya Grundy refuted 26 allegations, comprising 12 counts of gross indecency with a minor, eight counts of inducing a kid under 13 to participate in sexual behaviour, four counts of indecent assault, and two counts of sexual assault against a child under 13.
After a seven-day trial that ended on Tuesday, May 22, Tanya Grundy was convicted of all charges committed between the late 1990s and mid-2000s.
In addition to the prison sentence, Tanya Grundy was permanently registered on the Sex Offenders’ Register and subjected to a Sexual Harm Prevention Order.
Detective Constable Louise Gowan, who spearheaded the investigation, stated that the acts were among the most egregious she had encountered in her 14 years of child abuse investigations.
She said: “This was horrific offending that has had a massive and life-long impact for the victims who have only recently felt able to come forward.
“It has taken a lot of courage and mental anguish for them to recall the offences they suffered in their early childhood.
“I only hope Tanya Grundy’s sentencing goes some way to helping them cope with the lasting impact of the abuse.
“This case shows that boys are sometimes the victims of sexual abuse and that women can be the perpetrators.
“Nottinghamshire Police encourages all victims of abuse, male or female, to report it on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
“We take it extremely seriously and as well as investigating the offences we can offer help and support for people affected.”
