Rapist who left victim feeling so dirty she had to scrub with dettol jailed for ten years

David Wilson raped the woman twice during one shocking attack and ignored her desperate pleas for him to stop.

Newcastle Crown Court heard she was left her traumatised, scared and felt so dirty she could not initially touch her own skin.

She eventually resorted to washing herself with Dettol in a bid to feel clean again.

Wilson, 49, of Garth Farm Road, Winlaton, Gateshead, denied two charges of rape but was convicted by a jury after a trial.

Mr Recorder Mark Giuliani told him: "You didn't take no for an answer. You decided your desires and your needs were more important than her wishes.

"She was making it clear she wanted you to stop. You didn't.

"She was saying 'no, don't, stop' and you ignored her wishes because you wanted to satisfy your own carnal desire and didn't give a care about her wishes."

Recorder Giuliani said the impact statement made by the victim was "chilling" to read.

The woman said she felt "so dirty she couldn't even touch her own skin" to clean herself afterwards.

The recorder added: "She describes she was subjected to a violent sexual assault by you which has left her traumatised, scared and has greatly affected her life.

"Afterwards she felt ashamed and dirty, at one point washing herself with Dettol to feel clean again."

The court heard Wilson has a record for violence.
