A
wannabe rapist, who pounced on a lone woman who fell asleep on a
night bus and missed her stop, has been locked-up for ten years.
Delroy
Bryan, 48, used his mobile phone to take images up the 22 year-old
victim's skirt as she snoozed on the N47 bus as it travelled through
south-east London in the early hours.
She
had enjoyed an evening out in London with friends on June 8, last
year and after missing her stop was befriended by Bryan, who promised
to help get her home safely.
They
both got of the bus at St. Mary Cray railway station at approximately
6:00am and the defendant offered to walk her to the correct stop.
In
a secluded park off Sevenoaks Way he punched the victim to the
ground, ripped her tights and placed his weight on top of her.
He
smothered the victim so that she couldn't breath, but the victim
mustered the strength to fight him off and shouted for help.
A
passing dog walker came to her aid and Bryan ran off and police
called.
Several
days later a PCSO from St Mary Cray recognised Bryan from images
circulated from bus CCTV and he was arrested on June 13.
He
was convicted at Woolwich Crown Court of attempted rape, sexual
assault and outraging public decency.
He
was also ordered to sign the sex offenders register for life.
