A man has been convicted of raping a one-
day-old baby and two other young
children.
Stuart Young, 37, was found guilty of two
charges of rape and one of sexual assault
at the High Court in Edinburgh on
Thursday.
The details about of his crimes revealed
during the week-long trial were so
horrific that the jurors have been
exempted from serving on another jury
for five years.
His crimes took place between November
2008 and December 2013, in attacks which
temporary judge Paul Arthurson QC called
"truly depraved and despicable".
He began raping the baby boy when he
was just one day old, and continued his
attacks until he was three months old.
Young, from the Sighthill area of
Edinburgh, also raped a girl over a period
of years, beginning when she was six
months old and continuing until she was
five.
Mr. Young sexually abused a
nine-year old girl in the Stenhouse area of
Edinburgh.
Young pleaded not guilty to all the
charges, and denied any wrongdoing. He
swore as he left the dock after being
convicted.
His sentence was deferred by Judge
Arthurson to allow the court to obtain
reports about his character, with Judge
Arthurson saying he should "expect a
sentence to reflect your level of
criminality."
He will be sentenced at the High Court in
Edinburgh on 28 May.
Detective Inspector Douglas Moran, of
Police Scotland, commended the bravery
of two young girls who spoke out about
their horrific abuse, bringing Young's
crimes to the attention of police.
He added that the victims and their
families will receive specialist support to
help them cope with their ordeal.Man Rape One-day-old Baby
