Freshwater Child Rapist Admits Further Sexual Assault Charges

A convicted Isle of Wight paedophile has admitted to further charges of historic child sex offences.

Graham Medway, aged 64 and formerly of the Freshwater area, appeared at Isle of Wight Magistrates’ Court today (Tuesday).

He is already serving time for raping a three-year-old girl at Yarmouth's Fort Victoria in August 2020, as Isle of Wight Radio previously reported.

When being sentenced to 14 years in January last year, the judge said he "presents a significant risk to the public."

Today he pleaded guilty to the following offences:

  • Assault a girl under 13 by touching – relating to an incident in Yarmouth, on 6 September 2014.
  • Assault a girl under 13 by touching – relating to an incident in Shanklin between 20 June 2013 and 22 June 2013.
  • 2 counts of indecent exposure – relating to incidents in Freshwater between 1 January 2017 and 24 September 2020.

Mr Medway was remanded in custody.

He will be sentenced at Isle of Wight Crown Court on October 4.
