A RAPIST who attacked two women, a predatory paedophile and a careless driver who killed a motorcyclist dad were among those jailed this month.

Luis Calado even mounted a character assassination upon one of his victims on Facebook after she had reported him to the police, calling her a 'filthy and disgusting human being' and accusing her of lying to police.

He was jailed for 14 years at Worcester Crown Court this month after he was found guilty of the sex attacks at two different trials.

The rapist, previously of Mill Street, Worcester, must serve at least two thirds of the 14 year sentence in prison before he is released following his attacks in Worcester.

He was told by the judge he would have to serve nine years and four months in custody.

The 27-year-old had been at HMP Hewell on remand and was convicted after two separate trials, each in relation to a different victim, one taking place last December and the second trial ending last month.

At the first trial he was convicted of assault by penetration and sexual assault on July 8, 2018. At the second trial he was convicted of rape and assault by penetration on August 10 last year.
 

David Carter, 60, of Hawkwood Crescent, St John's, was jailed for 24 years at Worcester Crown Court.

A jury found him guilty of all 17 counts which included rape and indecent assault on a child. Carter will be placed on the Sexual Offenders Register for life.

Meanwhile, Sucha Singh only had a provisional licence and no insurance when he cut the corner at the junction of the A44 in Lower Moor, between Worcester and Evesham, killing motorcyclist and father-of-two Tomasz Kozmicki on his commute to work.

His terminally ill widow, Agata, who has a brain tumour and does not know how long she has left to live, watched as the 54-year-old driver was jailed for the crash which killed her 41-year-old husband whom she described as 'a perfect father' and 'my soulmate'.

Before pleading guilty to causing death by careless driving, Singh had attempted to blame Mr Kozmicki for the crash but changed his plea to guilty when an expert for the defence endorsed the prosecution case.

Singh said he had 30 years of driving experience in India as an HGV driver but had never passed a test in the UK, was unsupervised and was not displaying L plates when he crashed his Volkswagen Touran into Mr Kozmicki's 600cc Yamaha motorbike at around 7am on July 9 last year.

The judge jailed Singh of Salisbury Road, Smethwick for 14 months and imposed a driving ban of two years and seven months.
