92-year-old Ryland Headley was convicted today at Bristol Crown Court of killing 75-year-old mother of two Louisa Dunne at her home back in June 1967.

Matching palm prints taken at the scene almost 60 years ago led a jury to find Headley guilty on both charges.

It's thought to be the UK's longest cold case to reach trial.

In June 1967, 34-year-old Ryland Headley raped and murdered 75-year-old Louisa Dunne.

Today, the man born in 1933 was found guilty of the rape and murder of a woman born in 1892.

Here's how it happened...

Headley, 92, sentenced to minimum of 20 years without the possibility of parole for raping and murdering a 75 year old woman in 1967.

Mr Justice Sweeting told Headley the obvious: "You will die in prison."
