Re: Frank Steenfeld (DoB: 02/11/1942). Yvonne Tunnicliffe, reviewing lawyer for the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS), said:

"Following a long and complex investigation by the Police and the CPS, Frank Steenfeld has today been convicted of what amounts to a catalogue of sickening historical child abuse that dates back over twenty years.

"I wish to pay tribute to those victims who came forward and gave evidence against Steenfeld, who has finally been brought to justice for his serious and depraved crimes against vulnerable children."
