Quotes

Greater Manchester Police said: "Four prison officers suffered minor injuries. One prisoner was injured."
A GMP spokesman said: "The collision involved two prison vans on the way to Preston crown court as part of a high-profile trial. Four prison officers suffered minor injuries and have been taken to hospital for treatment. One prisoner was injured."
..." Detective Constable Lesley Nolan-Brennan said: "Such was the violent and aggressive manner of Layfield's offending, the victim vividly remembers each of the occasions she was attacked. "He robbed her of her innocence, manipulated her and has scarred her for life. "I would like to pay tribute for the courage and determination that the victim has shown in coming forward to the police, and I hope that this outcome sends a strong message to other victims out there of historic abuse. "I understand that victims often feel that the easiest thing to do is simply try and forget about the past and keep their experiences bottled up. "But you can never really shake off what has happened, while the person who carries out this offending often lives a normal, free life. "Bringing that person to justice is often the only way for victims to truly move on. "There is no doubt in my mind that Greater Manchester Police is committed to thoroughly investigating all reports of historic abuse and that we can make the experience as easy as possible for the victims.""
