Convicted Rapist Found Guilty Of Sexual Assault

A convicted rapist groped a woman and offered her cash for sexual favors.

John Rollason, 68, was found guilty by a jury of assaulting his victim.

She was left “disgusted, shocked, and angry” by the incident, Plymouth Crown Court heard.

Rollason was jailed 30 years ago for raping a woman after coshing her over the head and driving her to Dartmoor.

A judge has adjourned a sentence for the new offense for probation and medical reports but warned Rollason he could be going back to prison.

Rollason, a grandfather, has type two diabetes and carries an oxygen cylinder, the court heard.
