His victim, who cannot be named for legal reasons, has spoken of the harrowing ordeal that Myers put her through when he invited her to his home before forcing her trousers down and raping her in his bedroom.
She said: “Since that night I have changed. I have spent hours scrubbing my skin, trying to remove the marks that nobody sees.
“I couldn t speak about it to most of my family. It made me feel dirty, used and as if he had killed a part of me.
“I still struggle being alone since the heartless, soul-destroying attack. My mental health has been on a downward slope since the rape and at one point I tried to take my own life.
