A Metropolitan Police volunteer officer has been found guilty of raping and sexually assaulting a child. James Bubb, who now identifies as a woman named Gwyn Samuels, groomed one of his two victims online before sexually assaulting her when she was just 12 years old. The 27-year-old, from Chesham in Buckinghamshire, was also found guilty of raping a woman he met online while posing as a 16-year-old girl.
The charges that the Muskogee county district attorney's office filed against Dustin Walker, 34, on Monday came after a DNA test confirmed he was the father of the newborn at the center of the case, the Oklahoma news outlet KWTV reported, citing officials. The woman charged alongside Walker the parent of the newborn's underage mother is 33. As is the outlet's policy, the Guardian is not identifying her or describing her relationship to Walker to protect the identity of the abuse victim in the case.
