Twisted Crimes Exposed
Back in April 2019, Daykin tried to coerce a teenage boy into exposing himself. He also forcibly undressed and exposed a girl under the age of 10. Daykin’s sick actions shocked the local community.
Justice Served as Predator Faces Lifetime Restrictions
Daykin was arrested on 4 September 2019. Detective Constable Adam Clarke from the South Child Abuse Investigations Team praised the bravery of the victims. He said:
“Both children – a teenage boy and a girl aged under 10 – bravely spoke out against Daykin. I want to thank them for their courage and for assisting us in our investigations.”
“Daykin is a predator who made demands of vulnerable, young people, for his own sexual gratification. Thankfully, the victims quickly alerted their loved ones who called police.”
He added: “Daykin has been sent to prison for his actions and he has been made subject to a 10-year sexual harm protection order and placed on the Sex Offenders’ Register for life. These orders will restrict his activities and movements once he is released.”
