A transgender butcher serving 20 years for subjecting a little girl to a horrifying sexual abuse ordeal is planning to appeal against the length of his jail term.Lawyers for Andrew Miller,53, believe that the term given to him was too lengthy and have lodged documents with the Court of Criminal Appeal in Edinburgh.Miller’s legal team hope a judge at the court will give them permission to proceed with the case and address the court on the matter sometime in the near future.Earlier this month, the High Court in Edinburgh heard how Miller lured the young victim - who cannot be named for legal reasons - into his car at a location in the Scottish Borders before holding her captive and repeatedly sexually assaulting her over a 27 hour long period.Lord Arthurson said the crime was 'frankly nauseating in its level of depravity and criminal deviance' and the abduction had been 'brazen and chilling'.He told Miller, who also uses the name Amy George but said he wished to be addressed using male pronouns for simplicity, had 'wicked and predatory' intentions when he dressed as a woman to entice the primary school pupil to accept a lift when she was walking home .The court heard how the victim's phone had run out of battery when Miller pulled up in his Jaguar and offered her a lift.

The victim said she thought she was getting into 'a lady's car'.Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by joining our WhatsApp community today.You'll receive daily updates on breaking news as well as the top headlines across Scotland.No one will be able to see who is signed up and no one can send messages except the Daily Record team.All you have to do is click here if you're on mobile, select 'Join Community' and you're in!If you're on a
