Black cab rapist John Worboys has been handed two life sentences with a minimum term of six years for attacking four more women.
The 62-year-old, who is now known as John Radford, was jailed in 2009 for assaults on 12 women in London.
The four victims came forward after a public outcry caused by a Parole Board ruling that he was safe to be freed.
Sentencing Worboys, Mrs Justice McGowan said she did not know when "if ever you will cease to be a risk".
In 2009, Worboys was locked up indefinitely for the public's protection with a minimum term of eight years after being found guilty of 19 sex offences against 12 women between 2006 and 2008.
In January 2018, the Parole Board said Worboys would be freed after serving 10 years but victims challenged the decision.

so another 6 years before he can apply for parole and after this that might be unlikely so hopefully never to be released \:D/ \:D/ \:D/

Well done to all the victims that have come forward to ensure this utter scumbag stays inside.

This scumbag is a stain on our trade, and the longer he stays inside the better.

What a crazy justice system we have when a life sentence means ‘at least six years’ those poor victims are the ones with the life sentences, the lucky ones may be able to put it behind them but they’ll never forget it.

I get your point, but a life sentence can mean life, but it can also mean he is out after six years. Although he will always be on license so could go back if he is ever deemed a threat.
