A man from Southampton has been sentenced to prison after admitting to engaging in sexual acts with two girls under the age of 15.
Patrick Sheppard, aged 19 and of no fixed address, appeared at Southampton Crown Court today (2 October) and received a prison term of two years and 11 months.
He previously admitted to two counts of sexual activity with a minor at the same court on Wednesday, 29 April.
The court was informed that Sheppard committed these offences against two 14-year-old girls, with the incidents taking place at properties in Totton and Nursling between March 2024 and November 2025.
Additionally, Sheppard pleaded guilty to charges related to dangerous driving, driving under the influence of a controlled substance above the legal limit, and using a vehicle without insurance following an unrelated event in Southampton in April 2025.
His sentence includes two 10-year restraining orders, a three-year driving ban, and a Sexual Harm Prevention Order for a period of 10 years.
