Why this petition matters

Started by Martin Pelders

Darren Goddard was found guilty of 15 counts relating to sexual assault, rape of minors as well as being in possession of child pornography (over 200,000 images).  Goddard was released on his existing bail of R10,000


We have received reports that Darren is still interacting with young children in the cycling fraternity in Durban and feel that since he has already been convicted of several sexual offences against minors, he should not be allowed to walk among our children freely.  
The state prosecutor failed in her duty to protect minors and should have opposed the release of the convicted serial child sex offender as soon as the judge granted the order, more so she should have requested that his bail be revoked after the first sentencing postponement. 
The sentencing has now been postponed a 3rd time to January of 2023, the 6th year since the start of the trial in 2017.

We need your support to get justice for the minor children that he raped so they to can have a peaceful Christmas knowing that the man that hurt them is in jail where he should be

THE STATE HAS FAILED IN ITS DUTY TO PROTECT THE MINOR VICTIMS IN THIS CASE.

Support us in attaining JUSTICE  for the victims of Scottsville Primary

We call on Judge Pillay to revoke Darren Goddard's bail immediately in order to protect vulnerable children in the Durban, Hillcrest, and Pietermaritzburg areas.
