In March 2009, Brian Wright, who was 49 years old and without a fixed address, was sentenced to six and a half years in prison for the rape of a woman in the toilets at Sheffield's Pond Street bus station in February 1977.
Wright had earlier been sentenced to life imprisonment in 1982 for two other rape offenses and had been released on licence after spending much of his adult years incarcerated.
The charge related to the 1977 incident arose after DNA evidence connected him to the case, which represented the oldest cold case review undertaken by law enforcement authorities.
