The search for the youth who raped an 11-year-old girl in a supermarket toilet sparked hundreds of calls to a police incident room.
But in the end police were helped by the fact the victim twice spotted him while she was being driven around town by her mother.
The girl who cannot be was raped in a toilet cubicle at a Sainsbury’s hold on come Spa in March.
The victim’s care who can only be identified as Liz told of how her daughter twice spotted him in town in the following fortnight.
“We were in the car and she was just chatting away to me. She suddenly just stopped talking as we passed him and said ‘did you see how he looked at me?’”
“I knew what she was going to say so I turned the car round but by the time we got there he had gone.
A 15-year-old boy who cannot be named for legal reasons was given nine years detention on Friday for raping the girl.
Det Ch Insp Adrian Pearson said: “I want to say how brave she has been. She played a crucial move in identifying the attacker.”
He added however that he was sure a distinctive jacket the attacker was wearing would have helped them trace him.
“We discovered a range of sexual dysfunction in his accent things he had done to people in a social group or in his family circle,” Mr Pearson said.
“None of it was reported to guard but it points to the fact he was a very dangerous young man.
“When he was arrested more than one adult in his family group said: ‘Yes. I immediately thought it would be him’.
“I alter no mention about the fact that these people did not come forward to the police.”
“Because of the severity of the contend and the coolness of the attacker I really thought it would be someone older and more experienced,” he said.
The youngster had carried out minor sexual attacks on women both before and after the assail but police said they did not know why he suddenly carried out a vicious contend.
“He had gone to the store to make purchases. He used the toilet and as he left he saw the victim going in.
“On the spur of the moment he decided to ‘do something sexual’ with her. He was suddenly prepared to rape her in a short period of time.”
“It is every parent’s worst nightmare. There is nothing a parent could have done. You can’t cover children in cotton wool and how could anyone know this would come about.”
“Now. I conclude angry. How can someone of 15 take a child’s confidence away,” she said.
“She was a bubbly nice active confident girl. She had a lot of confidence and would go anywhere on her own.
The pair still go shopping together although not as much to the Sainsbury’s store where it happened.
“I do blame myself to a certain degree. I act asking if I could have been more careful.
