Read our privacy policy Medical records of a woman who claimed she was the victim of a grooming gang do not match allegations she was beaten, stabbed and given a “backstreet abortion”, a court has heard. Preston Crown Court heard Eleanor Williams, of Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria, made the claims to her boyfriend in a message, in which she also said she developed a heroin addiction after being given the drug while locked in a caravan. In a message sent in May 2020 to her then boyfriend Ryan Dickie, the court heard, Williams said when she was 15 she was locked in a caravan for two weeks with men “coming and going all the time” and having sex with her. I developed an addiction to it.” Investigator Gary Humes told the jury Williams’ medical records had no details of a heroin addiction.
