💨 Abstract

In Rochdale, seven men were convicted of sexually exploiting two teenage schoolgirls between 2001 and 2006. The defendants targeted vulnerable girls, aged 13, with troubled home lives, providing them with drugs, alcohol, and shelter in exchange for sexual favors. The girls were exploited in various degrading locations. The jury took three weeks to deliver their unanimous guilty verdicts.
