A father has been caught at the deserving end of the law at the back of consistently raping her daughter for 20 years, with effrontery but shamelessly boasting about it.

He was charged with five counts of rape which he initially denied but he was eventually convicted and sentenced to 12 years in prison.

Raymond Prescott, 54, first attacked Layla Bell, 31, when she was just seven years old. Layla of Clifton, Nottingham, said her father would go from being her best friend this minute to being a sekzual predator the next.

“I told my mum but she wouldn’t even look at me or speak to me. I think she was more ashamed that she hadn’t known before. She believed me I think, but was in shock.”

“I can’t have sekz with anyone else and enjoy it, so I want to have sekz with you,” her father’s voice can be heard in the seven-minute recording.
Layla is heard telling him: “This is weird. It’s wrong and you know it. You were grabbing my arse in front of my friend.”
“The very first time he did it I was seven. He said he was proud of me for not wetting the bed and told me I was going to get a present. He took me into the bedroom after everyone else had gone to school and laid me down on the floor. He ran his hands up me and took my skirt off but I can’t fully recall what happened next. I blocked it out of my head because it happened at such a young age, but I knew it was very bad.”
She added: “I remember he took me into his bed and performed oral sekz when I must have been nine or ten. He would tell me it was our little secret and I was his special little girl.”

Prescott, of Clifton, Nottingham, was charged with five counts of rape and was eventually convicted at Nottingham Crown Court. Layla expressed pleasure at the 12-year jail sentence her father got, describing it as “brilliant”.
