January 2022 Double rapist from Easingwold jailed for 11 years A double rapist has been jailed for attacking two different women in North Yorkshire some years apart. Alexander Philip Rowley, 26, repeatedly claimed the two victims were lying about him. But a jury decided he had raped both women in separate attacks at residential addresses in North Yorkshire in recent years. Today he is starting 11 years in jail. Rowley, of Easingwold, denied two counts of rape but was convicted by a jury at Grimsby Crown Court last November. Following his sentencing by the trial judge, Judge Michael Fanning, at Hull Crown Court, Rowley will be on the sex offender register for life.
