He has today been jailed for 40 months.
DC Nicky Ward from the Major Operations Unit said: “Andrew Wilson was in a position of trust at the care home which was a position he abused. The girls he assaulted were young and vulnerable.
“I hope that the victims, who are now women, can rest with the fact that justice has eventually been served. I hope that this result provides reassurance to people that if they report this type of sexual abuse to the police or other agencies that they will be dealt with in a sympathetic and supportive way.”
