An East Lothian man who carried out an assault on a sleeping woman that left her in excruciating pain was jailed for three years yesterday.
A judge rejected a plea to spare Jack McInally a prison sentence after he was earlier convicted of the penetrative attack on his 21-year-old victim.
Judge Norman McFadyen told McInally at the High Court in Edinburgh : “I am satisfied no alternative to a custodial sentence is appropriate in your case.”
The judge said the offence was aggravated by being carried out on a sleeping woman who considered she was safe.
