🚨 PAEDOPHILE WHO FILMED HIMSELF ABUSING A TODDLER JAILED FOR 14 YEARS Andrew McAdam, 36, of Mayfield, Edinburgh, sexually abused a baby aged between 12 and 18 months over five months, filming the abuse and sharing footage with another offender. But his offending went even further. The High Court in Glasgow heard that McAdam remotely encouraged and incited Connor Cashmore to rape a separate young boy in England. Cashmore was sentenced separately to 20 years in prison. McAdam was caught after a Greater Manchester Police investigation linked him to indecent images found on another offender’s phone. Police Scotland examined his devices and uncovered communications with multiple offenders, including encouragement to abuse children and the sharing of child sexual abuse material. His crimes also included sexual communications, sexual exposure and public indecency. He even filmed himself exposing himself on the upper deck of a bus in Edinburgh city centre. The toddler’s parents described the devastating impact on their family, including the fear of one day having to explain to their son what had been done to him. Lord Scott said McAdam had shown no convincing or meaningful remorse and had minimised his responsibility. The judge described his culpability and the harm caused as extremely high. McAdam admitted nine charges covering March 2023 to September 2024. He received an extended sentence of 14 years — ten-and-a-half years in custody followed by three-and-a-half years on licence. He was also placed on the sex offenders’ register indefinitely and given an indefinite order prohibiting contact with his direct victim. A child barely out of infancy was subjected to prolonged sexual abuse, while the offender encouraged further abuse of another child. Source UK Database.
