92-year-old man convicted of murder in one of UK's oldest cold cases
LONDON: A 92-year-old British man was convicted on Monday (Jun 30) for a rape and murder committed nearly 60 years ago, in one of the UK's longest-running cold cases. Ryland Headley was found guilty by a UK court for raping and killing 75-year-old Louisa Dunne after breaking into her house in Bristol, southwest England in June 1967, when he was 34 years old. It is "one of the oldest cold cases to ever be solved in the UK", the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS), which brings criminal prosecutions said. Local police reopened the case in 2023 and matched DNA from the victim's skirt and other items from the original probe to Headley, who had also served a prison sentence for raping two elderly women in 1977. He is due to be sentenced by a judge at Bristol Crown Court on Tuesday. During the initial investigation, police had found a left-hand palm print from Dunne's home, where she was found dead from strangulation. The palm print was compared to 19,000 men to no avail. At the time, Headley was a railway worker who lived just outside the area in which men and boys were asked to give prints. Reaching a dead-end, police sealed away forensic evidence for half a century. Both DNA testing and later Headley's palm print resulted in matches. When Headley was arrested at his home last November, he told detectives: "I don't know what you are talking about. Very strange, very strange." "For 58 years, this appalling crime went unsolved and Ryland Headley, the man we now know is responsible, avoided justice," said Charlotte Ream of the CPS. Following the conviction, Dunne's granddaughter Mary Dainton said her death had a "far-reaching impact throughout my family". "I was just 20-years-old when my grandmother died and I'm now almost the same age as she was when she was killed," Dainton said outside court. Police said they were now looking into other possible cold cases Headley could be linked to. "Ryland Headley has now been convicted of three rapes of elderly women within their own addresses, and in the case of Louisa Dunne, her murder as well," Dave Marchant of Avon and Somerset Police told the PA news agency. "I think there's every possibility that there are other offences out there – over the 60s, 70s, however long a time period – which Mr Headley could be culpable for."
