Paedophile's sentence an insult, say victim's family

A convicted paedophile was today jailed for life in the UK for kidnapping and sexually assaulting a three-year-old girl just weeks after his prison licence for an earlier sex attack on another child ran out.

The recorder of Cardiff Judge John Griffith Williams QC told Craig Sweeney he was a “devious” man and posed a significant risk of re-offending before telling him he would spend a minimum of five years and 108 days in prison before being considered for parole.
