He was found guilty and my life will not return to normal. Although I feel glad I came to court to stop him doing it again, I am still broken and will never be the same.

Kelly lied throughout the entire case and forced the victim to live it again by taking her case to court. This man is manipulative and wicked.
I welcome Kelly’s sentence from the Judge. It reflects Kelly’s seriousness. The notification requirement will provide additional protection for the public from Kelly’s abhorrent behavior once he has been released.
“I wish other victims would have the courage to speak up – regardless of how far back the crime occurred – and know that they will be heard, believed, and that the Lancashire Police will try everything possible to bring this offender to justice.
