Court frees ‘non-binary’ repeat sex offender after conviction for abusing 15-year-old boy.
Avoiding Jail: ‘Non-Binary’ Child Molester Escapes Prison Time
A convicted child molester in Scotland who identifies as “non-binary” has managed to avoid jail time after his attorney argued that his client would be “particularly vulnerable” in prison.
Oliver James Bond, a 32-year-old man from the town of Cardenden, has escaped jail despite being found guilty by a jury of sexually assaulting a teenage boy over a period of six years, as reported by
Bond began molesting the child in 2010, when the boy was 15. He carried out a serious sex attack on the boy while he was asleep and incapable of giving consent. The predator continued to sexually assault the child at least two more times between 2013 and 2016, usually when the boy was asleep.
Last week, a Scottish jury convicted Bond of all three attacks after deliberating for one hour.

As is typical of child molesters, the suspect has a history of predatory aggression. In 2019, Bond, then using the name “Lucas Cole,” was found guilty of sexually assaulting a man claiming to be a woman. However, he was sentenced to only 200 hours of community service and no jail time. He then changed his name to Oliver James Bond and committed more sexual assaults on a 15-year-old boy.
Bond’s defense attorney, David Holmes, had the audacity to argue that his child-molesting client should not be imprisoned because he would be “particularly vulnerable” in prison.
Shockingly, the presiding judge, Sheriff David Hall, seemed to buy into this argument. Hall placed Bond on the Sex Offenders Register for five years, ordered him to undergo social work supervision for 18 months, and imposed a curfew for six months. Bond was also required to carry out 250 hours of community service instead of serving time in prison.
“With some hesitation, I am going to allow you to remain at liberty,” Hall said during the trial. “You were convicted by the jury of all three charges. You just don’t get the seriousness of this matter.”
Russell Findlay, a conservative member of the Scottish Parliament, criticized the judge’s decision, attributing it to the misguided prioritization of criminals’ well-being over public safety.
“With the SNP’s [Scottish National Party] systemic drive to empty Scotland’s prisons in top gear, it’s becoming less clear what kind of crime needs to be committed that will result in a jail sentence,” Findlay told the Sun.

The SNP and Greens have just voted through their dangerous Bail and Release Bill which will risks public safety. Yet again, they’ve betrayed victims by putting criminals’ rights first. pic.twitter.com/NVqAKQonJH — Russell Findlay (@RussellFindlay1) June 22, 2023 Similar to the United States, left-wing individuals in Scotland are advocating for the mass release of dangerous criminals while undermining public safety.
