A VILE DJ and his adopted sister girlfriend raped multiple teen girls after meeting them at discos in a six-year reign of terror.
Darren Gibson and Rebecca Kirton groomed their victims in Leeds – including targeting one girl when she was just ten years old.

The couple would ply their victims with alcohol and both join in with the sickening abuse.
Gibson, 54, met some of the girls while DJing at family functions and children’s parties at a social club.
He has now been jailed for 24 years, while Kirton, 39, was sentenced to 12 years.
Leeds Crown Court heard the pair’s first victim was targeted in 2002 after she befriended Gibson’s son.
She was abused by both him and Kirton from the age of ten after being invited for “girlie nights” at the couple’s home.
Gibson raped her for the first time three years later while on a family holiday he had been invited on.
The second victim was raped after she met the DJ at the social club.
Gibson invited the girl – then aged 14 – over to his home and the couple plied her with alcohol before she was attacked.
He sexually assaulted the third girl when she approached his DJ booth to request a song.
The fiend pulled the teen behind a curtain and kissed her neck during the 2008 attack, the court heard.
In their victim impact statements, the girls told how abuse had had a significant impact on their lives.
Gibson was found guilty of 19 offences – including indecent assault, rape, sexual assault and causing or inciting a child into sexual activity.
Kirton was convicted of two counts of sexual assault, one of rape and one of causing or inciting a child into sexual activity.
Both were ordered to sign the sex offenders’ register for life.
Det Insp Stephen King, of West Yorkshire Police’s major investigation review team, praised the “courage and bravery” of the victims.
He said: “They have had to wait a long time to see justice finally being done and I hope today’s outcome will bring some comfort to them.
“I’m pleased that in handing down these sentences, the court has recognised the gravity of Gibson and Kirton’s offending. They are calculated sexual predators who carried out serious harm to young girls over a significant period of time.”
