Description
A man found guilty of sexually assaulting a woman in Crewe has been jailed for eight years.
Brandon Bentley appeared at Chester Crown Court on Friday 23 February where he was sentenced to eight years in prison.
He was also ordered to sign the sex offenders register and handed an indefinite restraining order against the victim.
The 26-year-old, who at the time lived at an address in Crewe, had previously been found guilty two counts of sexual assault, attempt rape, and digital penetration.
During the trial the court heard how Bentley had asked the victim if she wanted to go out with him on the evening of Sunday 14 November 2021.
They sat in his car until the early hours of the morning before the victim became tired and asked to go home.
She got out of the car and headed towards her front door but Bentley followed her. She tried to close the door, but he pushed his way through, grabbed her and tried to kiss her.
Bentley then pushed the victim onto the bed, and as she pleaded with him to stop, he sexually assaulted her.
Before leaving the address, Bentley pushed the victim against the wall and sexually assaulted her again.
Following questioning, he was charged with attempt rape, two counts of sexual assault, and causing a female to engage in non-penetrative sexual activity.
