A ‘vile’ 94 year-old who sexually abused a schoolgirl in a bus driver’s shack is believed to be the oldest sex offender ever to be jailed in the UK.
Frederick Smith used a Zimmer frame as he was escorted to the cells after a judge sent him to prison for a year.
The retired travel agent admitted four offences of indecent assault between 1972-1982 and one offence of indecency with a child between 1972-76. 
Sentence had been adjourned to see if the prison service could accommodate his ‘extensive
personal needs’.
Smith, of Haverhill, Suffolk, was described as ‘vile’ by Judge David Goodin.
He told him: 'As frail as you are, bent over your Zimmer frame, justice cries out that you be sent to prison for your crimes.
'This court is not in the business of passing cruel, degrading and inhumane sentences but to
prison you must go.
'I’m told you have become depressed and withdrawn and I’m inclined to the view that at the age of 94 your remorse for what you have done is real.
'This court is not in the business of passing cruel, degrading and inhumane sentences but to prison you must go.


'I’m told you have become depressed and withdrawn and I’m inclined to the view that at the age of 94 your remorse for what you have done is real.
'You will carry the shame of your offending to your grave.'
Ipswich Crown Court heard that medical reports showed that Smith ‘wasn’t in bad shape’ for his age. 

The judge added: 'You need help with stairs, bathing and dressing but otherwise your memory is not bad and you can communicate clearly.'
