Keith Lockwood

Keith Lockwood, 72, of Keighley, was sentenced to 15 months in prison at Leeds Crown Court on 1 September 2026. The sentence followed a trial in July 2026, where Lockwood was found guilty of four counts of indecent assault against two victims in the Kirklees area between the late 1970s and early 1990s.

The court heard that the first count of indecent assault occurred between May 1979 and May 1981 against a victim who was then aged 14 to 15. The remaining three counts of indecent assault were committed between March 1988 and March 1991 against a second victim who was 12 years old at the time the abuse commenced.

Lockwood was already serving a 23-year prison sentence imposed in May 2024 for previous convictions regarding child sex offences. He remains on the Sex Offenders Register for life.
