A FORMER Llandybie man has been jailed for 17 years today for raping a young girl.
Philip Adrian Morgan, aged 45, had denied the charge but was found guilty unanimously by a jury following a trial at Swansea crown court.
Judge Peter Heywood had warned Morgan that the starting point for his offending was 15 years.
But he said today that that was insufficient to reflect the seriousness of his crime.
Morgan showed no reaction on hearing the jury’s verdict.
