The trio’s offending occurred during separate and unconnected incidents around two decades ago. Mark Craster-Chambers, 54, was seen kissing the female student of his south Cumbria school in a car shortly after she turned 16. He also engaged in further unlawful sexual acts with her at his house on other occasions, Carlisle Crown Court heard. Years later, after Craster-Chambers contacted the woman through social media, she called police and reported illegal activity. She also told of being sexually assaulted by two other men while aged just 13. “She didn’t report anything at the time,” said prosecutor David Traynor. “She didn’t even realise that what had happened was abuse for many years.”
