Overview
- The jury found Samuels guilty on four counts relating to a girl who was under 13—assault by penetration, rape of a child under 13, sexual activity with a child, and assault by penetration—and guilty of raping a second complainant.
- The offences occurred between January 2018 and April 2024 after contact on Omegle and Kik, with the first victim aged 12 when the abuse began.
- The adult complainant told police Samuels used BDSM and purported police training techniques to create control, which the court heard was not consensual.
- Samuels is a Metropolitan Police Special Constable who is currently suspended, and Thames Valley Police described the defendant as a dangerous, predatory sex offender while urging information to Operation Aspect.
- Sentencing is pending, with one report listing December 19 at Aylesbury Crown Court and others noting no date set, as police and the NSPCC call for safer online platforms and support for victims.
