"Equestrian, grinning, inquired about his sexual partners prior to engaging in a threesome involving an underage girl and another horse rider, aged 26, according to the court."
In a shocking turn of events, Guy Simmonds, a 37-year-old showjumper, and Lauren Jarvis, a 26-year-old horse rider, are facing accusations of sexual offenses involving an underage girl. The alleged incidents are said to be connected to their equestrian activities.
Simmonds, who ran a riding school in the village of Undy, Gwent, is accused of repeatedly grooming the girl and having sex with her in a horsebox at his stables. He is also alleged to have referred to himself as “daddy” in messages to the underage girl.
The girl, who was 16 at the time of the alleged incidents, claimed that Simmonds sexually touched her in a tack room and warned her to keep the acts secret. She also testified that there was one occasion where Simmonds allegedly filmed her on his phone during the abuse.
The alleged sexual abuse took place regularly when Simmonds' girlfriend was away, approximately every couple of days. Simmonds is currently on trial, denying six counts of sexual activity with a child.
Jarvis is accused of being involved in the alleged threesome that took place at her home. The girl claimed that Simmonds got her and Jarvis to “do stuff” with each other before he had sex with both of them. Jarvis is facing one charge of sexual activity with a child, which she has pleaded not guilty to.
Both Simmonds and Jarvis are accused of hatching a “pact of silence” to avoid being exposed. Simmonds is said to have texted the girl to inform her of the planned threesome, telling her “You will both do what daddy says.” Jarvis reportedly expressed concern about the girl talking and potentially causing problems for them, saying "Hey, who's she told? Oh god has she really, what's she trying to do, make our lives hell? Of course I will xx."
The girl's father alerted the police after she told him about the alleged abuse. The police investigation revealed that both Simmonds and Jarvis are accused of targeting the underage girl despite knowing she was under 16.
The alleged threesome is not the only instance where Simmonds and Jarvis are accused of exploiting underage girls. It is alleged that they both targeted another underage girl, with Simmonds texting her saying, "I have a feeling that [name of alleged victim] has said about us. If anyone asks for the sake of both of us, nothing ever happened that night xx."
The case is a stark reminder of the importance of protecting underage individuals from exploitation and abuse, especially in environments where they are meant to feel safe and secure. The trial continues, and both Simmonds and Jarvis maintain their innocence.
