An RAF worker has pleaded guilty to eight child sex offences committed against two girls, including four counts of rape.
Glenn Poyner, formerly of RAF Benson in Oxfordshire, admitted the rapes, one count of assault by penetration, one of causing a child aged under 13 to engage in sexual activity, and two of sexual activity with a child, at a court hearing on Friday.
Poyner was granted conditional bail until sentencing after prosecutor Mark Connor said the pleas entered were accepted by the Crown. “The prosecution are able to accept those pleas for that reason. In relation to the prosecution accepts those pleas with regard to the court’s overall sentencing powers.”
Adjourning the case pending reports including a psychiatric assessment, Judge Peter Barrie told Poyner: “I am going to ask the probation service to make an assessment. That ought to include a consideration of dangerousness.
