But the Court of Appeal overturned his conviction in November 2024 after a complaint from the sex predator concerning the Judge who had ruled in the first trial.
Head appeared at Lewes Crown Court for his retrial today, where a jury again found him guilty of all counts.
The twisted fake taxi driver is set to be sentenced on August 25.
Shocking footage of Head’s arrest in 2022 showed the moment he was stopped by cops with a “rape” kit.
Jurors at Lewes Crown Court previously heard how a 25-year-old female victim had managed to read his number plate after being attacked.
The woman reported waking up in a car, which she thought was a taxi, to find a man sexually assaulting her.
She had gotten into the car earlier that night, to travel from Brighton to Hove.
The victim escaped at around 3am and called 999 to report being assaulted by a man in latex gloves and a Covid mask.
The court was told Head was a “sexual predator” who “slipped up” the night he was arrested.
In footage shown to jurors, police can be seen talking to the 68-year-old after pulling him over in Brighton.
As he is speaking, police decide to search his car where they found latex gloves, viagra, condoms and a balaclava that formed a rape kit.
When asked why he had the condoms and viagra, Head said: “I’m a normal red blooded male”.
Police also found business cards advertising him as a “N-Uber driver” that had the slogan “Safe and Reliable – For All Occasions”.
Head was also found guilty of assaulting a 19-year-old woman he picked up near Hove Park.
She was pulled into bushes where the predator attempted to rape her, after the victim initially took a lift from him.
The two attacks took place in the early hours of August 19 and November 18, 2022.
Detective Constable Elliott Lander from the Surrey and Sussex Major Crime Team said: “Graham Head has twice tried to evade justice for his despicable crimes, and now twice been convicted by separate juries.
“His refusal to accept responsibility for his offending has forced his victims to relive the traumatic attacks carried out by him. The impact on them and their families cannot be overstated, and I commend all involved for their strength and courage in such challenging circumstances.
“Head will remain in prison, as he has throughout this process, as we await resentencing.”
One of Head’s victims, a 25-year-old woman, tragically passed away last year.
Her heartbroken mum released the following emotional statement: “Regardless of the outcome of this trial and independently of the jury’s verdicts on each of the charges that Graham Head has just faced, I want to say a few words on behalf of my daughter.
“My (only) daughter tragically died in late 2024 – a couple days after being informed by the CPS that Graham Head had been successful in appealing his conviction for kidnap of my daughter and for causing serious sexual harm to her and to another even younger female victim.
“I feel strongly that I need to protect the anonymity of my own and my daughter’s friends and the families and friends of Graham Head’s victims.
“However, I want to recognise and say my own deep thanks for the strong and compassionate support that my daughter, myself, and our family have received from the Police, the CPS, the witness service, and the Courts over the past two years.
“This retrial process has been tremendously difficult and a huge strain for all of us; we’re glad it is now over.
“I’m especially grateful for the attuned support of the Sexual Offences Investigation Team (SOIT) and the Independent Sexual Violence Advocacy (ISVA) service who supported my daughter every step of the way through the challenges of bringing this man to justice on both trials.
“Looking to my family’s future following my daughter’s death, my biggest hope is that other families can now hopefully feel much safer knowing that this dangerous man is no longer able to predate and attack any other vulnerable young local woman thanks to his deserved (re)conviction for these appalling offences.
“My other hope is that, if there are other young women who feel they may have narrowly escaped or fallen victim to this sexual predator, then they will hopefully be reassured by my daughter’s and our family’s experience that they will be listened to, supported, and well cared for by the Police and Court systems.”
