A rapist who attacked two young women in front of a group of
two-year-old

The judge jailing Paul Eames, 40, said that, in 30 years in the
courts, he
had rarely been so shocked by the 'depths of depravity and sheer
wickedness'
involved in the rapes.

One-legged Eames approached the women - then aged 20 and 23 - in
Doncaster,
South Yorkshire, as they were taking two girls and three boys - some in
pushchairs - to a pet shop to buy fish food.

Eames rode up behind the group on a bicycle and the women invited him
to go
past before he later reappeared behind them and asked the 23-year-old
for
directions.

I wonder whether any other cyclists will comment on this?


I will.

I've never understood this sort of crime. If he had wanted to shag a
couple of women as a birthday treat why not steal a few hundred pounds
and then pay a couple of prostitutes to act out his fantasy. That way he
would only risk a slap on the wrist if caught, rather than the 30 years
he got.

So clearly he was just a person on a bike shaped object rather than a
real cyclist who would have been able to work that out for himself due
to the increased blood flow to the brain of regular cycling.


But maybe he wears a helmet, so his brain had overheated.
