Overview
- Wolf was convicted by a jury at Newcastle Crown Court of sexual activity with a child following a trial.
- She was sentenced to three-and-a-half years in prison and is subject to an indefinite restraining order and a sexual harm prevention order, with lifetime registration as a sex offender.
- Judge Gavin Doig dismissed written claims that jurors and police were “hypnotised” and publicly praised the complainant’s courage.
- The victim, who knew the defendant as Ryan Haley, delivered an impact statement describing lasting harm from the abuse.
- Unrepresented at sentencing, Wolf denied the offence, accused the victim of lying, indicated an intention to appeal, and the court noted non-sexual prior convictions and mental health difficulties.
