THE drink and drug crazed partner of a serving police officer abducted and brutally attacked a ‘terrified’ 15-year-old girl at an Inverclyde railway station.

David Fraser – intoxicated on prescription drugs and rum – repeatedly sank his teeth into the youngster, punched her and threw her down a flight of stairs.

The 39-year-old dad-of-two had earlier tried to lure another young female to meet him after repeatedly staring at her.

Fraser – who says he has no memory of the ‘out of character’ offences – is now beginning a 16-month prison sentence.

He abducted the second victim as she waited to meet a friend at Woodhall Station at around 8pm on May 11 last year, seizing her and forcing her to walk in front of him.

Greenock Sheriff Court heard how Fraser shouted ‘C'mon’ to the girl and then nodded towards the stairs of the railway footbridge.

Prosecutor Frankie Morgan said: “He took hold of her and punched her to the face.

“The witness started to scream for help and the accused responded by biting her on the shoulder.

“Utterly terrified, the complainer continued to scream for help.

“The accused then threw the witness down the stairs of the footbridge.”

Fraser, of Greenock’s Murdieston Street, had tried to target the first girl at Cartsdyke Station.

His lawyer told the court that he was ‘in crisis’ and was a victim of sexual abuse as a child.

The solicitor said: “He overdosed on medication with rum and he has no recollection of the offences. They are offences that are completely out of character for him.

“He has a family with a pro-social attitude and his partner is a serving police officer.

“This is a matter of great concern to everyone.”

The lawyer added: “He simply can’t explain it and he is shocked and couldn’t imagine himself behaving in this way, but he accepts that he has.”

At a sentencing hearing at Paisley, the lawyer said: “There is no way anyone in his family is taking this lightly.

“He is resolved to continue addressing his problems.

“He has displayed enormous empathy and he appreciates the impact his actions have had on these young women.

“To this day he is baffled at how he has behaved.”

Sheriff McIntyre told Fraser: “Your solicitor has put before me lots of compelling information which he submits mitigates the whole circumstances.

“I must take account of all manner of things, including your background.

“On the other hand, I must take account of the nature of the offences perpetrated against very young people.

“It may be that you can’t remember but you will understand that the matter is of grave concern to the public and the court.”

The sheriff, who read a victim impact statement from the female assaulted by Fraser, said: “In weighing all of the matters up, I am in no doubt that a prison sentence is necessary to mark the gravity of this offence, to keep the public safe and to deter others from behaving in this way.”

Fraser’s 16-month sentence has been backdated to when he was first remanded in custody on March 3.

He will be subject to an eight-month supervised release order on his liberation from custody and he must also take part in alcohol misuse counselling.
