Simon Morgan, already serving time for a serious crime, has been hit with an extended sentence at Swansea Crown Court after a second woman bravely stepped forward years after suffering a horrifying attack in 2015. This newly revealed assault saw Morgan violently assault the woman before taking her phone and committing rape.
His existing sentence is a hefty 14 years for another vile act in 2021, where he viciously attacked and threatened a woman, even in the presence of others, showing a blatant disregard for others’ safety.
The judge has labelled Morgan a dangerous offender, satisfied that he poses a significant risk to the public. This means an additional 10-year sentence has been tacked on, consisting of six years in prison followed by four years on license. Morgan must serve two-thirds of his new prison time before the Parole Board even considers releasing him.
One victim courageously shared how she has battled recurring nightmares and a sense of lost safety since the attack, highlighting the lasting impact of such trauma.
If you or someone you know is grappling with the aftermath of abuse, numerous charities provide support and counselling. Lifecentre, NAPAC, and Rape Crisis England & Wales are just a few that offer crucial resources and help to those in need.
