A man has been jailed for three and a half years for carrying out a series of sexual offences in Fife.

Gavin Morrison was previously found guilty on August 28 of 11 separate offences including a number of counts of indecent exposure and breach of the peace in the Kirkcaldy area between 2015 and 2022.

The 44-year-old was sentenced at Kirkcaldy Sheriff Court on Monday to three and a half years of imprisonment.

Detective Constable Carol Fraser at Glenrothes said: “Gavin Morrison is a predatory sexual offender who preyed on young females whilst they were walking or playing in their local communities.

“He has shown no remorse for his deplorable actions that were committed over a period between 2015 and 2022.

“I would like to thank those involved for their strength in coming forward during this investigation and criminal trial.

“I hope the conviction and sentencing provides them with some sense of closure and allows them to move on from this horrendous ordeal.

“If anyone is experiencing or has experienced any type of violence or sexual abuse, you are not alone, and we would encourage you to report it to us.

“You will be listened to and supported throughout the entire process by officers and our partner agencies, and together we will bring the perpetrator to justice.”
