Stephen Richards
“As a child, I was attractive to paedophiles. I suppose being indecently assaulted when I was 13 years old should have warned me that there were some weird and dangerous men out there, but I had got over that episode in my life.”

Stephen Richards
“I left the court feeling sure that Rose West would never walk free again. That thought made me happy.”
