Shocking video shows a 'deviant sexual predator' creeping into homes to carry out vile sex attacks. 

Jason Bursk, 51, was today jailed for breaking into properties in the Radcliffe area with the intention of abusing females, including attempting to rape one young girl.

Judge John Potter told him: ”Your convictions in these proceedings show you to be a deviant sexual predator who presents a significant danger to those who live in a community close to you.”

He was sentenced to 15 years behind bars after pleading guilty to 11 offences, committed between January 2012 and November 2019. An additional five years will be spent on extended licence.

The offences included four counts of trespassing with intent to commit a sexual offence, three counts of attempting to trespass with intent to commit a sexual offence, two offences of sexually assaulting a child under 13, attempted rape of a child and sexual assault.

Bursk, of Overton Close, Radcliffe, was finally caught after he was captured on CCTV on November 15 last year and police released images to the public in the hope of identifying him. 

He had sneaked into a young girl’s bedroom at 4.30am, sexually assaulted and attempted to rape her before running off when he was disturbed by other people in the house.

He had also gone to other homes in Radcliffe on April 5 and July 13 last year with the intention of committing sexual offences and, on January 19, 2012, sexually touched a young girl.

Bursk will spend up to 15 years in prison with a further five years on licence.

Senior Investigating Officer, Detective Superintendent Howard Millington, said: “I would firstly like to pay tribute to the victims of these horrific sexual ordeals who have shown great levels of dignity, co-operation and patience during this whole process to finally get the justice that they deserve. 

“They have been through harrowing circumstances but have shown admirable strength and courage to ensure that this man has received the justice he deserves. 

“In addition I want to thank the victims’ families for their unwavering support during this investigation and also our local partner agencies and specialist officers who have provided excellent support for the victims throughout.

“This was a meticulous investigation which has led to this result and I would particularly like to thank my team on this case including DS Andy Wright and his detectives in Bury CID, along with specialist crime colleagues, and to the CPS for the lengths they all went to, so that Bursk has been prosecuted for the full scale of his offending.

“Jason Bursk is an extremely dangerous sexual predator who would seek opportunities to commit shocking sexual acts on innocent members of the public who were vulnerable due to their age and I am now satisfied that Radcliffe is a much safer place without this individual roaming our streets.

“The sexual offending towards two young girls and an elderly lady will have shocked our community and there’s no doubt Bursk endeavoured for further gross activity to take place but was thankfully unable to do so, due to this investigation. 

“This case epitomises our commitment in Greater Manchester Police to ensuring that all potential victims of serious crimes of this nature get justice no matter what. It is important that anyone who has been affected by this case contacts the police with the knowledge that information will be treated with the strictest confidence.”
