David Wilson raped the woman twice during one attack and ignored her desperate pleas for him to stop
A rape survivor was left feeling so violated after her assault that she resorted to washing herself with Dettol.
David Wilson subjected the woman to a horrific double rape, ignoring her desperate pleas for him to stop. Newcastle Crown Court heard the harrowing details of how the attack left her traumatised and terrified, feeling so defiled that she initially couldn’t bear to touch her own skin.
In an attempt to regain a sense of cleanliness, she washed herself with Dettol.
Wilson, 49, from Garth Farm Road, Winlaton, Gateshead, denied two counts of rape but was found guilty by a jury following a trial. Sentencing him to ten years in prison, Recorder Mark Giuliani told him: “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 described the victim’s impact statement as “chilling” to read. The woman expressed feeling “so dirty she couldn’t even touch her own skin” to clean herself afterwards, reports Chronicle Live.
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 was informed that Wilson has a history of violence.
