A rapist who used his limousine business to groom and sexually abuse young girls in Rotherham has been jailed for 24 years.
Saynor, now of Mayall Court in Waddington, Lincolnshire, was told by Judge David Dixon given his age and health he would likely remain in prison for the remainder of his life.Sheffield Crown Court heard between 2005 and 2017, Saynor lured children into his limousine under the pretence of offering them to do "promotional work" for his business.
He was also found guilty of three counts of assault by penetration, two counts of sexual activity with a child and two counts of engaging in sexual activity in the presence of a child.Victim impact statements read out in court detailed the lasting trauma Saynor's abuse had caused. Another victim said she suffered from nightmares and had become an overprotective parent as a result of what had happened to her."I don’t know who I am anymore."
Judge Dixon told Saynor he must serve at least two thirds of a 24-year prison term, making it "effectively a life sentence" due to Saynor's age and deteriorating health.
