VIOLENT WOLVERHAMPTON RAPIST HANDED EXTRA JAIL TIME FOR SEX ATTACK ON GIRL, 16
The individual depicted is Matthew Grant, a violent offender who was sentenced to extended imprisonment for attacking a 16-year-old girl.
The assault resulted in the victim being beaten and injured, after Grant forcefully threw her against a wall during a harrowing ordeal.
The sex offender, based in Wolverhampton, assaulted the teenager by punching and strangling her while subjecting her to repeated rape throughout one night and into the following morning.
On July 5, Grant received an 11-year jail term at Wolverhampton Crown Court, with charges including six counts of rape and one of actual bodily harm.
Subsequently, the Court of Appeal reviewed his sentence under the Unduly Lenient Sentence scheme.
It found that the initial punishment was insufficiently severe and increased his imprisonment to 13 years.
