OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) — A Thurston County jury has convicted a former long-haul trucker of a stun-gun assault and rape of a Saint Martin’s University student in April 2008.
The Olympian reports that the Thurston County Superior Court jury convicted 51-year-old Richard Duane Bunch of first-degree rape, first-degree kidnapping and first-degree robbery. He faces a possible 25-year prison sentence.
The newspaper says Bunch is currently serving a 10-year to life prison sentence for a rape of a 13-year-old developmentally disabled girl in Nevada. He also faces trial in Washington’s Kittitas County on charges he raped a girl in Ellensburg.
