Dott previously called the allegations made against him “disgusting”.
During the trial, the court heard how he had “caressed” the girl’s bottom while giving her a piggyback and that, on another occasion, he had exposed himself to her.
Police previously contacted Dott about the allegations in 2001, but no charges were brought.
The woman gave a new statement to police in 2025.
The court was also told how Dott “rewarded” the boy with money, crisps and fizzy drinks after molesting him in the shower at a home in South Lanarkshire.
The boy, now a man in his 20s, also said he was abused in a car on a number of occasions and “inappropriately touched” while Dott played online poker.
Lewd and libidinous practices refer to any sexual crimes against children committed prior to 1 December 2010.
The offence was abolished in 2009, but is still used for crimes carried out before then.
