Quote:
Judge Lakin also revoked the community rehabilitation order passed by Judge Adrian Smith and resentenced him for the earlier rape offences against the seven-year-old.
He was sentenced to three years and four months, to run concurrently, and placed on the Sex Offenders Register.

As the first sentence was revoked and replaced by a prison sentence of same length as for the second offence and runs
concurrently with it, in effect he received
no sentence for the first offence. Also that means the second offence was not given a harsher sentence than the newer sentence for the first offence.
