Fake paramedic raped and sexually assaulted women he met on Tinder
A man who tricked women into believing he was a paramedic before raping one and sexually assaulting two others has been jailed for 12 years.
24-year-old Jamie Kadolski of Norwich previously worked as a call handler for the East of England Ambulance Service but had lied to the three women that he was a paramedic.
He used stickers on his work ID card to hide his more junior role, an earlier trial at Norwich Crown Court was told.
He's now been found guilty of three counts of rape and of six further sexual offences.
Judge Anthony Bate, sentencing at the same court on Thursday, said the offending happened between August 2022 and September 2023, when he met the women through Tinder.
He said the defendant 'projected a misleading impression of your healthcare professional status through your misuse of uniforms, health service identity cards and related papers'.
'Each of them expected to be safe in your company and able to enjoy a healthy and fulfilling future relationship based on mutual respect,' he said.
He sentenced him to 12 years in prison with an extended licence period of three years, dubbing him a 'dangerous offender'.
The judge also imposed an indefinite Sexual Harm Prevention Order, and ordered that Kadolski's seized devices, uniforms and identity cards remain confiscated.
The woman who was raped by Kadolski cried in the witness stand as she said she felt 'humiliated and ashamed', and has nightmares almost every night.
Seeing ambulances or paramedics in the street 'fills her with dread', she said, despite now knowing Kadolski isn't a paramedic.
A second woman said she was a 'shadow' of her former self, and had tried to take her own life.
His third victim told the court that the 'thought of what happened still haunts me today'. More Trending
Defending lawyer Michael Cohen said others would represent Mr Kadolski in an application for permission to appeal his convictions.
He said Kadolski had no previous convictions or cautions that were relevant to the case.
The defendant showed no emotion as he was led to the cells.

Four red flags your partner is cheating Private Investigator Aaron Bond from BondRees revealed four warning signs your partner might be cheating. They start to take their phone everywhere with them In close relationships, it's normal to know each other's passwords and use each other's phones, if their phone habits change then they may be hiding something. Aaron says: "If your partner starts changing their passwords, starts taking their phone everywhere with them, even around the house or they become defensive when you ask to use their phone it could be a sign of them not being faithful." "You should also look at how they place their phone down when not in use. If they face the phone with the screen facing down, then they could be hiding something." They start telling you less about their day When partners cheat they can start to avoid you, this could be down to them feeling guilty or because it makes it easier for them to lie to you. "If you feel like your partner has suddenly begun to avoid you and they don't want to do things with you any more or they stop telling you about their day then this is another red flag." "Partners often avoid their spouses or tell them less about their day because cheating can be tough, remembering all of your lies is impossible and it's an easy way to get caught out," says Aaron. Their libido changes Your partner's libido can change for a range of reasons so it may not be a sure sign of cheating but it can be a red flag according to Aaron. Aaron says: "Cheaters often have less sex at home because they are cheating, but on occasions, they may also have more sex at home, this is because they feel guilty and use this increase in sex to hide their cheating. You may also find that your partner will start to introduce new things into your sex life that weren't there before." They become negative towards you Cheaters know that cheating is wrong and to them, it will feel good, this can cause tension and anxiety within themselves which they will need to justify. "To get rid of the tension they feel inside they will try to convince themselves that you are the problem and they will become critical of you out of nowhere. Maybe you haven't walked the dog that day, put the dishes away or read a book to your children before bedtime. A small problem like this can now feel like a big deal and if you experience this your partner could be cheating," warns Aaron. One person wrote: "Big fan of your work." Another commented: 'Him losing twice the same night is gold." "Ma'am you are a psychological genius," penned a third. "He's still thinking about that to this day. In fact his new girlfirend has to remind him he's beautiful once a week." Meanwhile a fourth said: "He was trying to play checkers but BABYYY you were playing CHESS." "Not gonna lie that's a pretty solid way of handling that,' claimed a fifth. Someone else added: 'Girl, if you don't catfish him every year like it's a nationally observed holiday, what are you doing with your life? Get him again."

Rough sleeping to be decriminalised with 1824 law finally scrapped
Rough sleeping will no longer be a crime in the UK as the government abolishes a 'cruel' 200-year-old law. The Vagrancy Act 1824 was introduced amid a spiralling homelessness crisis after the Industrial Revolution. Most of the act has been repealed, though some are still in force in England and Wales to police begging and rough sleeping. But the government announced today it will scrap the bill 'for good' by Spring next year. On any given night last autumn, 4,667 people were sleeping rough, a 164% increase from 2010, according to official figures. In 2023, 298 people were convicted under the act. The Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner said: 'We are drawing a line under nearly two centuries of injustice towards some of the most vulnerable in society, who deserve dignity and support. More Trending 'No one should ever be criminalised simply for sleeping rough and by scrapping this cruel and outdated law, we are making sure that can never happen again.' Matt Downie, chief executive of Crisis, said: 'This is a landmark moment that will change lives and prevent thousands of people from being pushed into the shadows, away from safety. 'For 200 years, the Vagrancy Act has meant that people who are homeless are treated as criminals and second-class citizens. It has punished people for trying to stay safe and done nothing to address why people become homeless in the first place. 'Ending the use of the Vagrancy Act recognises a shameful history of persecuting people for poverty and destitution, something that figures like William Wilberforce and Winston Churchill warned against in their opposition to the Act.'
