Sex pest Collan Rex, formerly of Parktown Boys’ High, has been sentenced to an effective 23 years in prison.

The defence for the school’s former assistant water polo coach, who had been found guilty of 144 counts of sexual assault and 12 counts of assault, wanted a suspended jail term.

However, South Gauteng High Court acting judge Peet Johnson imposed the harshest term possible.
