Walter Sayre, Akron, OH rapist, sentenced to 19 years

Walter Sayre, a 37 year old Akron, OH rapist who served prison time for the 1992 rape of a 72 year old woman, was sentenced to 19 years in prison and a Tier III sex offender listing yesterday for assaulting a 57 year old Kenmore, OH woman on February 19 this year knowing he was HIV positive. Out of prison for only 6 months, Sayre pled guilty to rape, aggravated robbery, aggravated assault, and felonious assault. Judge Judith Hunter was the presiding judge. Tier III sex offenders have to stay on The List for life, and must report to the police every 3 months. Ohio prison sentences carry no “good time,” but prison time can be added for bad behavior.
