Wrexham rapist cut telephone line so victim couldn’t ring for help Simon Nash jailed for eight and a half years for rape after attacking woman in her own homeA vicious man entered a house, attacked a woman, and then cut the telephone line to prevent her from calling for help.
Simon Patrick Nash was convicted in October last year of this assault and sentenced to eight and a half years in prison.The court in Caernarfon heard that Nash, 43, charged into the woman’s home and subjected her to violence, including punching and kicking.
He then demanded sex, and although she initially refused, she later felt compelled to agree out of fear of Nash’s continued aggression.
After he left, she was so distressed that she appeared very frail and white as described by a neighbour.
The judge, David Hale, emphasized Nash’s lack of remorse and the violence involved, stating his conviction was justified and he deserved the sentence.
Nash received an eight-and-a-half-year sentence for rape and an additional 18 months for assault, to be served concurrently.
The police investigator, DC Rachel Garbutt, highlighted the seriousness of the crime and the victim’s bravery in coming forward, adding that such sentences serve as a warning to others and affirm the police’s commitment to justice.
