SHANNON DEERY HERALD SUN MAY 11, 2015

A PERVERTED priest who plied young boys with cigarettes and alcohol before raping them has been jailed for at least nine years.

David Edwin Rapson, 61, was today sentenced to a maximum jail term of 12-and-a-half years for the second time over the assault of a string of young boys.

As he was marched out of court by prison staff a victim yelled to him: “I hope you die in jail. Dog”.

In 2013 Rapson was jailed for 13 years for his crimes but was released on appeal after serving just a year of that sentence.

He was ordered to face new trials and was last month he was found guilty of five charges of rape and six of indecent assault after four secret County Court trials.
