Verified case summary
Jordan Roberts, twenty-five, from Beacon Hill in Bodmin, was prosecuted after a fourteen-year-old girl reported sexual offences.
Devon and Cornwall Police said the case included an allegation of rape and a separate offence of sexual activity with a child.
Roberts admitted the sexual-activity offence but denied rape, so a jury at Truro Crown Court heard evidence in the case.
The jury found him guilty of rape.
He was sentenced to four years and two months in prison.
The court also imposed a fifteen-year Sexual Harm Prevention Order, required him to register as a sex offender for life and made a ten-year restraining order.
Police praised the girl's courage in supporting the prosecution.
One guilty plea and one jury conviction led to prison, lifetime registration and two long-term protective orders.
