I wanted to provide you with an update regarding Sexual Offences, which people around your area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the priority survey. A 26-year-old man from London has been jailed for 18 months after pleading guilty to two counts of engaging in sexual communications with a child and three counts of breaching a Sexual Risk Order.
Samuel Jamieson, of Brook Drive, London was sentenced when he appeared at Southampton Crown Court on Tuesday (29 September), having admitted all five offences at a previous hearing.
His offending took place in the Southampton and Bursledon areas.
Jamieson engaged in sexual communications with two children, aged under 16 years, between Monday 1 December 2025 and Tuesday 20 January 2026.
The breaches of his Sexual Risk Order (SRO) took place between Monday 1 September 2025 and Monday 2 February 2026.
One of the breaches occurred when Jamieson was found to be in possession of an item capable of accessing the internet without having first registered that item with the police, something he was prohibited from doing as part of his SRO.
Speaking after sentencing, Detective Constable David Trathan, of the Eastleigh Criminal Investigation Department, said: “We continue to work tirelessly to target those who attempt to exploit and sexually abuse children, whether in the real world or virtually.
“I would like to place on record my thanks to the victims and their families in this case for coming forward and reporting Jamieson’s crimes and supporting us throughout our investigation.
“It’s not an easy thing to do, but their courage has ensured that a dangerous and predatory man will now face the consequences of his actions in prison.
“We always take allegations of this nature extremely seriously and work extremely hard to bring offenders to justice.
“Anyone who has any concerns at all about child abuse can contact us at any time.
“We recognise that not everyone has the confidence to speak to police, but there are support services available that can help you if you are a victim of abuse.”
Anyone with concerns about child abuse can call 101 or contact Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
If you are not ready to speak to police, but have experienced abuse in childhood, or are concerned about a child, you can contact the NSPCC helpline, confidentially, on 0808 800 5000.
