Tory councillor admits rape
A Tory councillor has lost his job and is likely to be expelled from the party, after admitting five sex offences involving three girls, one of them being a charge of rape.
Stephen Mullins, 52, formerly of Links Avenue, Hellesdon, has been a member of Norwich North Conservative Association (NNCA) for about two years and a Hellesdon parish councillor for about the same time.
Mullins, who worked as head chef in the kitchen of the Bull pub in Reepham Road, Hellesdon, for 17 years until April this year, appeared at Norwich Crown Court.
He admitted two offences of indecent assault against one girl under 14, between August 22, 1999 and August 21, 2000, and between August 22, 2000 and August 21, 2002. He also admitted rape involving the same girl between August 22, 1999 and August 21, 2002.
He also admitted sexual assault on April 3, 2008, on another girl aged 14 and assault on April 14, 2008, on another young girl.
He was remanded in custody to await a pre-sentence report and is due to be sentenced at Norwich Crown Court on September 1.
A mixture of law, politics, autobiography and humour. Once described as "The Devilish Advocate" (Guardian), I do have the ability to provoke a response. Sometimes it comes from someone who uses a thought process, and sometimes from jerks usually associated with the knee.
