Suffolk Man Faces Historic Sex Abuse Trial Over 1990s Allegations

Allan Grimson, 66, of Hollesley, Suffolk, began trial on June 1, 2026, at Newport Crown Court on charges of one rape and 11 counts of indecent assault involving four teenage men and boys from the 1990s. He has pleaded not guilty to all 12 counts. The four-week trial examines allegations dating back three decades with no contemporaneous forensic evidence, requiring juries to weigh credibility and memory consistency across decades.
