A 73-year-old man has been sentenced to 22 years in prison after being found guilty of 15 counts of serious sexual abuse, including rape, which spanned decades.
Derek Jinman, of Woking, was sentenced at Guildford Crown Court on Monday, March 24.
Jinman committed the offences, involving four victims aged six to 16 years old, over a period of more than 11 years.
Detective Sergeant Carlos Pedreira of Surrey Police, who was involved in the investigation, said: "Jinman is a dangerous sexual offender who preyed on the vulnerabilities of his victims and subjected them to years of serious sexual abuse.
"I have huge admiration for the strength they have shown in coming forward and supporting our lengthy investigation and trial.
"It is thanks to their bravery that he is no longer a risk to the wider community, and I hope the fact he has finally been brought to justice will bring them some closure and peace.”
"I would urge anyone who has been the victim of sexual abuse, no matter how long ago it happened, to come forward and report it.
“You will be listened to and you will be supported throughout the process,” added Det Sgt Pedreira.
