JAY WILKINS FROM DORKING SENTENCED FOR RAPE IN LEATHERHEAD

Jay Wilkins, aged 27 and hailing from the town of Dorking, was handed down a five-year prison sentence on Thursday, November 11, following his conviction at Guildford Crown Court. The serious criminal act for which he was found guilty occurred in Leatherhead, a nearby town, on the night of June 20, 2018.

According to court proceedings, the victim was asleep at the time when she suddenly awoke to a horrifying realization. She discovered Wilkins, who was the defendant, engaging in a sexual assault.

During the attack, Wilkins had his hand around her neck, adding a threatening element to the assault and heightening the severity of the crime.

The court heard the distressing details of the incident, which took place in Leatherhead, a town within Surrey, and the subsequent legal proceedings that led to Wilkins’s conviction. The judge’s ruling reflects the gravity of the offense, resulting in a five-year prison term for Wilkins, emphasizing the seriousness with which such crimes are treated within the judicial system.
