Former Metropolitan Police officer Jailed for 24 Years Over Serious Sexual Offences

A former Metropolitan Police volunteer officer has been sentenced to 24 years in prison after being convicted of multiple serious sexual offences involving two victims.

James Bubb, who also used the name Gwyn Samuels, was found guilty following a court trial that detailed a prolonged pattern of abuse, manipulation, and coercive behaviour.

The court heard that one of the victims was a child at the time the offences began. Bubb used online communication to build trust before arranging to meet in person, where he then carried out sexual assaults. The abuse continued over a period of time, causing significant and lasting harm.

He was also convicted of offences against a second victim, an adult woman, whom he met online under false pretences. Prosecutors described how the relationship became controlling and abusive, with Bubb using deception and pressure to exploit the victim.

The offences took place over several years and involved the misuse of trust, including knowledge gained through his role connected to policing. Although not a serving officer at the time of all offences, the case has raised wider concerns about safeguarding and the responsibilities of those in positions linked to public service.

During sentencing, the judge emphasised the seriousness of the crimes and the profound impact on the victims, noting that the harm caused would be long-lasting. A substantial custodial sentence was handed down to reflect the gravity of the offences and to protect the public.

Police have described Bubb as a dangerous offender and have encouraged anyone with further information to come forward, as enquiries remain ongoing.

Support organisations have also reiterated that victims of sexual abuse are not alone and that confidential help is available through charities and support services across the UK.
