Rapist Scoops £7m Lotto

A RAPIST serving life for a series of “ferocious and terrifying” attacks has won £7MILLION on the Lotto.

Sex monster Iorworth Hoare, 52, was on weekend leave in a Middlesbrough bail hostel when his numbers came up in last Saturday’s Lotto Extra draw.

One pal there said: “He looked really smug. He told us, ‘I’m made for life now’.”

Hoare’s catalogue of crimes includes one rape, three attempted rapes and three indecent assaults.

And he was once told by a judge: “Every moment you are at liberty, some woman is at risk.”

Yet today he has a multi-million pound fortune after scooping a third share of last Saturday’s £21million Lotto Extra jackpot.

Hoare began his “terrifying and degrading” attacks while still in his twenties — and was sentenced to a total of 18 years between 1973 and 1987.

Following his release, he attempted to rape a 60-year-old woman in a Leeds park and was finally jailed for life in May 1989.

Leeds-born Hoare, a coal miner’s son, was being held at Leyhill open prison, Gloucs.

But he was on weekend leave at Middlesbrough’s South Bank bail hostel when he won his £7,039,469 fortune.

Word of his win quickly spread to other villains at the hostel — just yards from a police station.

And yesterday they told how Hoare wasted no time in bragging about his good fortune.

One said: “We saw him on Sunday morning and he was looking well smug with himself. He told us he’d come into some money.

“He said, ‘I’m going to be sound for the rest of my life. I’ll do well from here on in till the day I die’.

“We asked if he’d had a win on the horses and he said, ‘No — I put the lottery on yesterday and make of that what you will’.

“Then he gave me £100 in cash and said the drinks were on him. I couldn’t believe it as the other week I asked him for two quid and he didn’t have it on him.

“I still can’t get my head around this as he was skint most of the time. We knew he was in an open prison and came up here at weekends. But we didn’t know much else about him.”

Yet Hoare’s immediate joy at his win, which will earn him at least £6,700-a-week interest while he is in jail, was quickly cut short.

Within hours of landing the money with numbers 3, 5, 8, 18, 28 and 48, he was picked up by police — after officials ruled his mega-windfall had turned him into a “security risk”.

Later today he will be back behind bars in a Category C closed prison at Shepton Mallet, Somerset, for his own safety — with all future weekend leave cancelled.

A prison source said: “There’s always a danger that when you let somebody out on weekend leave and they’ve got lorry-loads of cash that the first thing they’ll do is buy a plane ticket to Rio.

“A re-assessment of his security status is now being carried out. This happens whenever a prisoner receives a large sum of cash.”

Last night the Home Office said prisoners on temporary release were allowed to buy lottery tickets.

A spokeswoman said: “If a prisoner is under closed conditions, obviously he can’t go out and buy a ticket and no one will do it for him. But if he is out on open conditions — on a day release or community project — he will be allowed to buy a Lottery ticket as part of his rehabilitation.”

Hoare was originally convicted of attempted rape at Leeds in June 1973 and given three years.

After walking free, he attempted to rape another woman and was jailed for four years in November 1975 at Exeter.

In September 1978 he was jailed for four more years for indecent assault and assault.

His most brutal crimes came in 1982, when he indecently assaulted a woman teacher and raped a 37-year-old housewife.

In the first attack, he pounced on the teacher but ran off when he saw someone approach.

Several weeks later he spotted the housewife walking in a field near a Leeds hospital and dragged her into woods, where he raped her.

Prosecuting counsel told Leeds Crown Court, where he was jailed for seven years: “These were ferocious and terrifying attacks.”

Hoare’s barrister John Mellor said the beast had tried to reform.

But he had attacked the women “in despair” after his girlfriend, a vicar’s daughter, fell to her death from a window in an accident.

Hoare was released in November 1987 — but went on to attack the 60-year-old woman.

His victim recognised him from the sweater he wore in a copy of a photo he had sent to the Jimmy Tarbuck quiz show Winner Takes All in a bid to appear on TV.

Caging him for life at Leeds Crown Court, Mr Justice Rougier said there was no sign of psychiatric illness behind his behaviour.

He told Hoare: “You are a menace to women. Every moment you are at liberty some woman is at risk.”

Hoare wed at Wakefield cathedral in October 1993 after being visited in Wakefield Prison by then-girlfriend Irene Harrison.

His current marital status is unknown.

Last night there was dismay at the HQ of lottery operators Camelot over the controversial win.

It is understood senior figures have told the Home Office they are uneasy that prisoners are allowed to buy Lottery tickets.

Privately Camelot executives have said prisoners should be banned from playing the Lottery, along with buying Premium Bonds and doing the football pools.

Campaigner David Hines, of the action group Victims’ Voice, said: “It is galling a man like this can keep so much money when victims are desperate for cash. If he is really reformed he should give it away to his victims.”


HOARE last night hired celebrity lawyers Schillings in a bid to stop The Sun printing this story. The Soho-based firm tried to warn us off by sending a fax on his behalf to our East London HQ. But The Sun refused to be bowed.
The £450-an-hour firm’s high-flying clients — including Ulrika Jonsson, Naomi Campbell, Nicole Kidman and Catherine Zeta Jones — will be disgusted to learn their legal representatives are being instructed by a sex monster.

Mars Bar A Day - Forever

HOARE can spend his windfall in the jail shop, choosing from 250 items including sweets, cigarettes and toiletries.

While most lags have just £6 a week to splash out, he can afford 17.5million Mars bars, 700,000 phone cards or 1.5million packs of cigarettes.
