The person of interest in the case of missing toddler William Tyrrell has been linked to paedophile ring.

TRIGGER WARNING: This post deals with child sexual abuse and may be triggering for some readers.

Accused paedophile William Spedding has been denied bail after being charged with the rape of two girls in 1987.

The five historical charges occurred in Sydney, and involved the repeated rape of two girls, aged six and three.

Police allege Mr Spedding was also involved in a paedophile ring, in which he offered children to fellow abusers.

The charges against Mr Spedding were laid after authorities unearthed historical police and medical records, leading to his arrest. The case is also supported by official statements made by the victims.

The 63-year-old whitegoods repairman is accused of having sex with the little girls, penetrating them with his finger and forcing them to touch him sexually, The Daily Telegraph reports.

Police allege the abuse was carried out during a weekend in 1987 when Mr Spedding was staying in a caravan near Campbelltown. After sharing a bed with his victims, police records state the six-year-old alleged victim woke up to him raping her.

The court was also told of the possibility Mr Spedding gave one of his victims to another man.

“In the course of obtaining victim statements police were made aware of further disturbing allegations of children being involved in witnessing or performing sex acts on each other, with another male adult present, or the giving of the victim by (Spedding) to another male adult associate for sexual purposes,” the police facts read.

Police also allege Mr Spedding has asked one of the girl’s for a statement clearing his name, while his wife, Margaret, who attended court yesterday, also attempted to contact one of the victim’s, sending a text message which read: “It really saddens me you’re involved in this.”

Channel Nine reports the girls, now in their thirties, were told not to speak of the attacks or their mother would be put in jail.

The accused was denied bail at a Port Macquarie court, yesterday.

Mr Spedding has recently made headlines as a person of interest in the case of missing toddler, William Tyrrell.

Three-year-old Tyrrell went missing from his grandmother’s home in September last year, days after Mr Spedding visited the residence to fix the washing machine.
