It wasn't me who gave evidence but a young girl he raped less than a month after me.
Sentencing is in May and they expect him to get in excess of six years.

Wooohoooo

Justice

Glad to hear justice has been served, but so sorry you had to go through this Flowers

PastaOfMuppets · 04/04/2017 13:43

MyOriginal3 I'm so sorry for you going through something so horrific, and the other girl too. Flowers

Whatthefudger · 04/04/2017 13:44

How fucking awful for you Flowers

myoriginal3 · 04/04/2017 13:45

I feel bad that the girl had to go through the trial when I wasn't able to but I was on the verge of a nervous breakdown unfortunately. Dangerous cunt he is.

Considering how few rapists get found guilty that's an excellent result.

I hope it allows you (and his other victim) to feel a sense of closure/peace/justice Flowers

Groovee · 04/04/2017 13:51

I'm so glad he was found guilty. Flowers for you and the young girl x

RockyBird · 04/04/2017 13:52

Glad to hear it.

Look after yourself and wishing you all the best of everything from now on Flowers

BewtySkoolDropowt · 04/04/2017 13:53

Hopefully this will help your healing process. So glad for everyone that has been affected by his actions that justice has been served.

You'll get through this xx

GloGirl · 04/04/2017 13:53

I don't know quite how to say I'm happy for you about something so horrific. Let's say that I'm happy truth has found justice on this ocassion and I really hope it can help you on the road to good health Flowers

myoriginal3 · 04/04/2017 13:53

For me it means I won't be fearing coming across him. The prick has already done time for rape.

I am so sorry you went through that but very glad you have justice! Have you got good support around you right now? You might find yourself having a bit of a reaction now that has "ended". Take care of yourself.

NoncommittalToSparkleMotion · 04/04/2017 13:55

Very sorry for you and his victims Flowers Glad justice has been served.

Winetemptress · 04/04/2017 13:57

Flowers hope he gets longer than 6 years though

myoriginal3 · 04/04/2017 14:00

I'm hoping he gets lots of time. He is an absolute danger.

I hope he never gets out of prison again.

Mrdarcyfanclub · 04/04/2017 14:02

He should definitely get more than six years if he's done it before (don't know the legal situation though). Hope this helps with some closure and healing for you OP.

YetAnotherSpartacus · 04/04/2017 14:03

I hope the fucker rots inside.

OP Flowers.

GnusSitOnCanoes · 04/04/2017 14:05

I'm bloody delighted he's been found guilty, but so very sorry this happened to you. Wishing you the very best on the road ahead, toasting you with Brew and sending Flowers.

myoriginal3 · 04/04/2017 14:07

His charge was rape of a child so I hope he gets more. If you google one legged rapist barking you'll find articles. His name is that of a very famous runner.

mumofthemonsters808 · 04/04/2017 14:07

I'm so glad to hear he has been found guilty, this is a really positive step to aid your recovery. The next step will be the sentencing and I really hope it's a long sentence, preferably with a clock in the prison cell, regardless of what sentence he receives, this horrendous experience will not define you. Keep us updated.

myoriginal3 · 04/04/2017 14:08

The one legged thing is mainly why I didn't want to pursue it as I figured noone would believe it possible

OP posts:
TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross · 04/04/2017 14:13

Flowers for you both.

So brave of that young girl to go through the trial. It's horrifying that he has aleady been in prison for this - surely this time, he must get longer than six years.

myoriginal3 · 04/04/2017 14:14

I'm feeling elated. I think I may still be thinking about it until sentencing but then it will be closure for until he gets out

OP posts:
myoriginal3 · 04/04/2017 14:16

I know. I wish I could meet her and hug her. I might go to the sentencing.
