Phone text nails a rapist

A rapist was trapped when he sent his victim a text message saying sorry, according to The Sun.

"Mark Woodland, 38, met the woman through a text-dating agency. He left his wife and daughter and had a sexual relationship with the 21-year-old woman.

But Woodland, a coach driver, raped her when she tried to end their fling.

The next day he sent her a text saying: “I didn’t mean to rape you.”

Woodland, of Ilminster, Somerset, was convicted of rape and jailed for four years, nine months at Dorchester Crown Court."
