London, England (AHN) - A senior prison officer was jailed for life on Friday for a series of rapes, kidnaps and assaults on women and girls in northern England. John Hall, 35, from Yorkshire, has been convicted of raping four women and indecently assaulting girls as young as 12 in the string of attacks between 1997 and 2004. Hall, who has worked for the Prison Service since 1991, sometimes posed as a policeman to try to entice victims into his car as he drove around Yorkshire. In March, a jury found Hall guilty of five counts of rape against four women and the attempted rape of a fifth. On Friday, he pleaded guilty to two charges of kidnap, two of indecent assault and four attempted kidnappings at a trial at Leeds Crown Court, West Yorkshire. Hall was arrested after a televised appeal for witnesses after a driver in Wakefield tried to kidnap three girls aged between 12 and 14.
