  1. A predatory former Olympic swimmer has been jailed for 21 years for raping two teenage girls and forcing them to have sex with ‘strange’ men.

    Antony James, 35, who represented Great Britain at the 2012 London Olympic Games was convicted of multiple counts of child sex offences at Plymouth Crown Court today.

    During the trial, James was described as a friendly and often charming man, with his own defence stating he had suffered a ‘Shakespearean fall from grace’.

    The prosecution however labelled the Olympian as a ‘serial liar and manipulator’.

  2. It’s unusual in this country to read that sentences are to be served consecutively.

  3. I’ve never seen one of these stories and thought “strange, he doesn’t look anything like a paedo rapist”
