Peter Crane, 65, has been convicted of sexually abusing children has been jailed for a total of nine years, and added to the sex offenders’ register for life.
The offences against a boy and a girl took place in the 1970s and 80s.
PC Matt McCarthy, from Bedfordshire Police’s Protecting Vulnerable People team, said:
“Crane to this day refutes the overwhelming evidence against him – including strong and brave testimony from the victims who were incredibly young when the abuse began, and have had to live with the consequences into adulthood.
“As well as the emotional impact of his offending, he has continued to put his victims through a further ordeal of a trial. No matter how much time has passed, we will always fully investigate and seek to prosecute any sexual offenders and would encourage anyone who has experienced abuse to come forward, regardless of when it happened.”
