Firefighter jailed 28 years for decades of child sexual abuse

Two siblings and a third victim endured prolonged sexual abuse spanning nearly five decades, with lasting psychological trauma affecting their ability to parent and form healthy relationships.

For nearly five decades, a London firefighter held in public esteem as a pillar of his community concealed a pattern of profound betrayal against his own children and others. Brian Doye, 77, was convicted in 2024 of 27 sexual offences spanning three victims, and sentenced to 28 years — a term he is unlikely to outlive. His adult children, who endured abuse beginning in childhood and carried their silence for decades, ultimately chose to testify, moved not only by their own reckoning but by the fear that others had suffered what they had not yet found the courage to name.
