Man convicted of raping woman while she slept

Thirty-five-year-old Rudolph Williams who went into a woman’s house and raped her while she slept, is now awaiting sentencing after a jury unanimously convicted him of the crime yesterday afternoon.

Following hours of deliberations, the 12-member panel returned with its unanimous verdict, finding Williams guilty as charged of raping the 22-year-old woman between September 29th and 30th of last year.

Justice Sandil Kissoon who presided over the trial has deferred sentencing to December 5th to first hear from probation and other social impact reports.
