Sophie Carr, 23, from Swindon, was just six when her older brother Alex, then 12, abused her during a game of mummies and daddies. Making her believe that he'd get sick with cancer if she didn't let him, every fortnight, he'd climb on top of her and masturbate himself. In her teens, Alex would harass Sophie with text messages and blackmail her in order to abuse her. After confiding in a boyfriend, aged 20, Sophie reported Alex to the police and in July 2020, Alexandar Carr, now 29, formerly of Dyson Road, Redhouse, Swindon, was found guilty of two counts of sexual assault on a child under 13 and two counts of sexual activity with a child family member at Swindon Crown Court. He was jailed for five years.
