Rape Suspect Identified By KIROTV.com Story Sentenced In Nevada

A trucker facing rape charges in Lacey and Ellensburg has been sentenced to life in prison in Nevada for luring a mentally disabled girl and sexually assaulting her in his truck.

Fifty-one year old Richard Bunch was given a life sentence by Washoe District Judge Patrick Flanagan on his conviction of lewdness with a minor, and up to 15 years for luring a child.

Last year, police in Lacey saw a kirotv.com story about Bunch and identified him as a suspect in a rape at St. Martin's University.
