A filthy farmer who abused a teenage girl half his age says he s prepared for prison when he s sentenced this week.
Andrew McRoberts (32) pleaded guilty last week to a total of eight serious sex offences, including sexual activity with a child who was just 14 at the time the abuse began.

Liberty University and Bedford County met in court on Feb. 3.
The university owns the airport and has been fighting for years to turn the area from an agricultural to a commercial zone.
Leaders want to extend the runway, but local residents are against it.
“Today’s issue was really about whether the board of supervisors is required to file something, and if they are, what kind of thing are they required to file,” said Andrew McRoberts, who represents Bedford County.

BEDFORD â Liberty University s efforts to expand the New London Airport onto adjacent properties hit a snag Wednesday.
LU had filed a motion asking a Bedford circuit judge to strike a September 2019 decision by the county zoning appeals board. That board s decision was to deny LU s request to rezone more than 460 acres of property around the airport, which would allow the university-owned airport to expand.Â
But on Wednesday, a judge denied LU s motion.
LU purchased the New London Airport in 2015 for $1.8 million. It owns a total of about 467 acres of surrounding property.
In 2019, Liberty submitted a request to rezone the surrounding property to allow development of a general aviation facility for the Liberty University School of Aeronautics. The proposal included a three-phase development process that would include relocation of a runway and construction of additional structures.
