A PERVERTED caretaker who subjected an 11-year-girl to a string of sexual attacks has been jailed.
Frank Boulton, aged 63, of Edmund Court, New Cross, was sentenced to two-and-half years in jail by Blackfriars Crown Court last Friday.
The court heard the four attacks took place while Boulton worked as a caretaker on the Erlanger Estate in New Cross.
He was arrested on October 8 last year, a day after his victim reported the assaults to Lewisham Police.
Lewisham Detective Constable Teresa Cork-Smith said: "Friends who supported the victim's allegations also needed to come to court to give evidence.
"We have given full support to these young people and would like to reassure others all allegations of abuse will be investigated and they should have the confidence to report them to police."
