A pervert who flashed teenage girls as they were getting the bus to school has avoided jail after he claimed the harm he caused was ‘relatively modest’.
Daniel Molan, 51, walked away from Bolton Crown Court after admitting to exposing himself to at least six pupils.One of the girls said she now ‘judges’ all of the men she meets and worries whenever a man sits next to her on public transport. Another said she was ‘freaked out’ by the incident.Prosecutor Amanda Johnson said: ‘Whilst waiting for her bus, she noticed the defendant nearby. He was standing and looking at her rather than looking up the road for the bus.
‘The defendant then exposed his penis to her. He stood staring at her with his penis exposed, trying to get her attention and was “moving it” in her words as he swayed his body.’The same girl fell victim to Molan for a second time a week later. ‘Again, she was at the same bus stop at around the same time. He again exposed his penis to her however on this occasion he began to masturbate in full view of her,’ Ms Johnson said.A month later, three girls were on the bus to school when Molan sat near them.‘One of the girls felt like she was being watched,’ Ms Johnson said. ‘She then saw that he was masturbating and saw his exposed penis.
Molan’s lawyer Paul Treble told the hearing: ‘Whilst I’m not negating the seriousness of the offence, the harm is relatively modest.’
