Exclusive: Estranged parent, 67, suggests account of neglect, drinking and abuse by stepfather probably aimed at reducing rape sentence
Metropolitan police
Carrick, 48, pleaded guilty to 85 serious offences including 48 rapes against 12 women. He was given 36 life sentences at Southwark crown court on Tuesday and will spend at least the next 30 years in prison for his 17-year crime spree. But Carrick’s mother, Jean, who watched the live stream of the sentencing, said she was upset that her son had described his upbringing as traumatic. The 67-year-old, who is estranged from Carrick, said: “That part really hurt me. I don’t want people thinking he was neglected. He was never neglected. Never.”
Sentencing Carrick, Cheema-Grubb said: “You described childhood trauma to the probation officer which must have affected your personality. You grew up with parents who drank to excess and neglected you. When they separated, you became the target of abuse by a stepfather in your teens. Like any child, you should have been nurtured and taught moral strength and you were not.”
