A SECOND woman has told a jury rapist Orville Vaughan forced himself on her when she was a child.

She said she was just 14 when the man, who she knew as Bov, was dating the big sister of her best friend. The morning after she stayed the night with the older girl in 1994 she said the friend’s boyfriend forced himself on her.

And she said she only reported the matter after putting ‘Bov rape Swindon’ into Google and coming up with reports of the 56-year-old’s previous convictions.

In an interview with police she said the older girl, who she looked up to, asked her to stay the night. She said she was confused and embarrassed over the fact that they were having some sexual activity under a blanket in front of her.

She pretended to be asleep and in the morning Vaughan pounced when his girlfriend, who was four years older than her, was in the bathroom.

“She went off and had a bath or shower. The bathroom was next to the stairs. She was in there for ages. I think I was just sat on the sofa feeling awkward," she told police.

“I remember him saying ‘stand up and take off your trousers’. I thought I am not. I remember thinking: do I call for her, do I shout, what do I do?

“He was quite scary, he was quite menacing. It was a demand. I knew if I didn’t something was going to happen. I just though he was wanting to look at my knickers or something. Then he told me to pull down my knickers and I did it. Then he just pushed me on the bed and he basically raped me.”

After he had finished she said she cried out for the older girl but there was no reply.

“I was like, she doesn’t care, I thought she was involved. Even though we weren’t close friends, as a woman when a younger girl is crying you answer her," she said.

“I think he said he was from Jamaica and that was normal; it happened to him when he was younger by a girl and he said he was younger than me. I don’t know if that was true or not. I don’t know.”

After the event she said she told her best friend, the sister of Vaughan’s girlfriend, who did not take her seriously.

“I thought my best friend doesn’t believe me and I can’t tell my parents: what do I do,” she told police.

She said she called the police after again waking in the night thinking about it and carrying out some research in the morning.

“I was thinking about his name, I thought just Google it. I Googled ‘Bov rape Swindon’ then I found that he had done it to other girls," she said.

“I saw what his full name was. I was thinking about it. My partner was there. I showed him the photo of him.

“Just seeing his face again: it all brought it back. I just thought, I have got to do something, not just for me. If he gets back out and does it to someone else how will I feel?

“I just thought it is best all this information is out there. I felt kind of better for accepting it. It felt like the next step. That is when I phoned you guys and told you about it.”

David Maunder, defending, pointed out his client was not from Jamaica and said he had not carried out the attack.

“I suggest the man you were with in that flat, whatever happened, was not the man involved in these proceedings,” he said.

Referring to her seeing the story online, he put to her: “I suggest the man whose face you saw isn’t, in fact, the man who attacked you.”

She insisted it was.

He suggested she was saying it to seek compensation, as she had debts and contacted the criminal injuries compensation board, to which she replied: “I think that is disgusting.”

Vaughan, of Allington Road, Penhill, denies two counts of rape.

The case continues.
