A WEST Belfast man who raped a 12-year-old girl and got her pregnant has been warned he faces jail in the new year.
Releasing Conaire Adams-Whyte on continuing bail yesterday, Judge Patricia Smyth told him she will impose a custodial sentence when he is sentenced next month.
Adams-Whyte (20), from Crocus Street off Springfield Road, pleaded guilty at Belfast Crown Court to raping the schoolgirl in the bedroom of his home on a date between June 30, 2015 and August 1, 2015.
Police were told in September 29 last year that a 12-year-old girl was pregnant.
The baby boy was born in April and a DNA sample was taken from the child which was a match to the defendant.
