@offenceregister: Mark Fysh Wootton and Abingdon Paedophile Child Sex Offender In 2019, Mark Fysh, then 60, of Whitecross, Wootton, near Abingdon, was sentenced to 30 months in prison for the sexual assault and molestation of a teenage female, according to the Offender Register. The defendant, a renowned disability campaigner and Unison branch secretary, was sentenced for a series of assaults that occurred in the 1980s on his appearance at Reading Crown Court. Fysh was reported to have used his status as a champion of the disabled to deflect suspicion, even claiming in court that his physical condition rendered the abuse impossible. The investigation determined that Fysh participated in a structured grooming process with the victim between the ages of 13 and 15. Oxfordshire Constabulary reported that Fysh was a trusted figure to the girl's parents and would exploit opportunities to watch television and embrace with her to escalate his behaviour. The prosecution alleged that Fysh would abduct the victim to the bedrooms in order to kiss and touch her, threatening to go to prison if she did not maintain the secrecy of their "relationship." Investigative Detail and Judicial Findings The court concluded that Fysh's defence, which was predicated on a medical condition he referred to as a "buried penis," was a fabricated attempt to elude justice. Oxford Crown Court heard how a jury rejected his claims and convicted him of seven counts of indecent assault and two charges of indecency with a child. The victim's lifelong impact was confirmed by the investigation, which revealed that the abuse had a profound effect on her. Twenty years prior, she experienced a mental collapse while employed by Wiltshire Police, which led to the termination of her career and a failed education. During the 1980s, Fysh made calculated efforts to conceal his actions and had caused significant psychological harm, as noted by Judge Nigel Daly. Fysh was sentenced to 30 months of imprisonment for his actions in Abingdon and Wootton. The judge observed that Fysh's efforts to portray himself as a victim of a witch hunt were disproven by the harrowing testimony of a woman who continues to experience anxiety, melancholy, and nightmares decades after the events. #MarkFysh #Wootton#Abingdon #offenderregister #sexoffenders
