The victim found the courage to report the abuse to Northumbria Police in 2016 and Morano was charged with six counts of rape and one of indecent assault.

The 64-year-old, Malcolm Morano, of Gilsland, Brampton, initially denied the offences and a trial date was fixed, however he later changed his plea to guilty.

Now he has been locked up for 12 and a half years.
