45-year-old Alexander Wilson, from Llanelli, was charged with two counts of rape of a child under 13 and one count of causing/inciting a child under the age of 13 to engage in sexual activity.
Wilson’s offending was identified when his victim texted a ‘safe word’ to their mother to signify that they felt that they were in danger.
This week he has been handed a 20-year extended sentence, comprising 17 years in custody and three years on extended license.
He will serve a minimum of two-thirds of his sentence in custody.
Detective Constable Chris Medlicott said:
“Alexander Wilson is a dangerous child sex predator who disgustingly took advantage of a child in his care.
“Thankfully, his victim’s traumatic ordeal is now over – but the damage caused to them by Alexander Wilson’s offending will be incalculable.
“He will now, rightly, be sent to prison.”
