Speaking after the sentencing, police investigator Paul Thompson, from Scarborough CID, said: “The victim has grown up traumatised due to the disturbing level of abuse committed by Broadmore. She has suffered a great deal of anguish and anxiety for almost 10 years.

“It has taken a lot of courage from this brave young woman to come forward and relive the trauma of the incidents.

“Firstly, by telling her family, then the police, and finally, telling a jury in court. Seeing Broadmore being convicted and handed a custodial sentence will hopefully provide a measure of closure and comfort, especially knowing her experience could encourage other victims of non-recent abuse to make a report and seek support.”
