Detective Constable Elaine Welsh said “I have been working on this case for four years, during which time Collins has shown no remorse or responsibility for the offences which he has committed. He assaulted teenage girls at the most vulnerable time of their lives while they were estranged from their families and trying to make their way in life. He lied his way into their lives, supplying them with alcohol and drugs.”

“These women have shown the utmost dignity and resolve. They have moved on with their lives and will continue to move on and recover”.
