Michael Roberts, 45, has become the first man to get a 'life means life' sentence for rape after raping three victims - one aged 83 - and viciously attacking a fourth in Bermondsey, south London.
Known as the Bermondsey Beast, he evaded justice for 15 years but was captured after a cold case review by Scotland Yard using advances in DNA.'
NOT as good as it looks, this. That Roberts will never again see freedom is of course, most welcome but the issue is how many who are nearly as bad will get a 12 year sentence which will see them out in less than six! (In my world there would have been a rather different outcome altogether!)Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2085735/Beast-Bermondsey-raped-elderly-women-jailed-life.html#ixzz1jK0S1tY7
