Taxi driver Delroy Grant 'was Night Stalker rapist'

A taxi driver has gone on trial accused of being the so-called Night Stalker who targeted elderly people during a 17-year campaign of sex attacks.

Delroy Grant, 53, of Honor Oak, south London, burgled and sexually assaulted men and women in their 80s across south London, Woolwich Crown Court was told.

He is charged with 29 offences committed between 1992 and 2009.

Opening the case, prosecutors said Mr Grant preyed on the elderly and vulnerable in their homes at night.
Single women

Jonathan Laidlaw QC said: "That is why he was to become known as the Night Stalker."

Mr Grant has denied the offences, all of which took place in Warlingham, Shirley, Beckenham, Bromley, Addiscombe, Orpington and West Dulwich.

Mr Laidlaw told the jury of five women and seven men: "What it was that motivated him to carry out sexual offences on the very elderly and what sort of gratification he could possibly have achieved is obviously difficult, if not impossible, to understand."

He said although Mr Grant's sexual interest was not only confined to women he did focus on single women living on their own.
'Removing light bulbs'

Jurors were told two of the offences involved elderly men, both of whom were subjected to "humiliating and degrading attacks".

Mr Grant, a former minicab driver from Brockley Mews, was arrested after his car was stopped by police in November 2009.

The court heard he went to great lengths to avoid identification, removing light bulbs in his victim's bedrooms and cutting telephone lines to give himself more time to escape.

Mr Laidlaw said: "This would become something of a hallmark to his offending."

The prosecutor explained how despite this he was never in a rush to leave and often engaged his victims in conversation.

"Whether it was just the additional sexual element that he enjoyed or it was the power and control he could assert whilst committing these offences, or it was the fear and anxiety, which he created and revelled in, will probably remain unclear," he said.

The trial continues
