WILTSHIRE MAN SHAUN BUNDY JAILED FOR RAPE IN HIS HOME
A man who raped a woman in her own home has been jailed for eight years.Shaun Bundy, 41, went to the Wiltshire home of his victim in May 2023.
He asked for a drink of water, but once inside he raped her and left, instructing her not to tell anyone.
He was convicted of rape after a re-trial at Winchester Crown Court and received a sentence of eight years.
Bundy, from Nunney near Frome in Somerset, will also be on the Sex Offenders register for life.
Det Sgt Toni Nugent of Wiltshire Police highlighted the woman's bravery, stating: "Not only did she come forward to make the report but Bundy then forced her to go through a trial twice despite the forensic evidence." Following the court proceedings, Bundy was sentenced to eight years in prison and will serve an additional five years on license.
The woman had to endure the court process twice when the first trial resulted in a hung jury.
Det Sgt Nugent added: "I am pleased that after a court process lasting over two years for the victim, Bundy has now been jailed for his crime."
