Convicted Child Rapist Rebecca Holloway Found Dead in UK Prison

The 31-year-old, serving a 12-and-a-half-year sentence, was discovered hanged in her cell at HMP Low Newton, with authorities ruling out foul play.

Rebecca Holloway, convicted of child rape and other sexual offenses, was found dead in her prison cell on February 13, 2025, at HMP Low Newton in Durham, England.
Authorities have stated that her death is not being treated as suspicious, and a file is being prepared for the coroner.
Holloway was serving a 12-and-a-half-year sentence for her role in the sexual abuse of children alongside Oliver Wilson, a man she met on a dating app, who is serving a 30-year sentence.
The pair's crimes included rape, conspiracy to sexually assault a child under 13, and the creation and distribution of indecent images of children.
The Prison and Probation Ombudsman has launched an investigation into the circumstances surrounding her death, as is standard procedure for deaths in custody.
