BBC Story

Five men have been convicted of a string of sex attacks on the remote Pacific island of Pitcairn.
The men, including the island's mayor Steve Christian, had faced dozens of charges including rape and indecent assault on girls as young as 12.

The verdicts were announced by judges sent from New Zealand for the trial. The island's population is just 47.

A sixth man had earlier pleaded guilty. Sentencing is scheduled for later this week and an appeal is expected.

Posted here because of an earlier thread discussing the charges, although that thread was complaining about the Islanders guns being confiscated for the duration of the trial, for the saftey of the defendants, witnesses and judges.
