An individual, Andrew White Lambeth Rapist, who entered his flatmate’s bed without consent and sexually attacked her while she was asleep has been sentenced to a term of imprisonment lasting 14 years.
Andrew White, aged 33, was discovered to have strangled a lady in her 30s when she regained consciousness during the assault at their shared residence in Lambeth and attempted to break free.
On June 18 of the previous year, the police promptly responded to the victim’s accusation of rape and are currently seeking any further potential survivors of White to come forward.
The victim claims that she was in a state of sleep when she suddenly became aware of Andrew White’s presence behind her. His genitalia were uncovered, and her trousers had been lowered.
After she distanced herself from him, Andrew White proceeded to around her neck with his hands, applying pressure in a chokehold.
Upon apprehension, law enforcement agents searched for Andrew White’s person and discovered him to have cannabis.
He was apprehended and vehemently refuted the accusations.
Investigators collected witness statements, camera footage, and forensic evidence that would ultimately establish White’s culpability.
DC Mariama Connell stated that the victim resided at the same address as Andrew White, but they were not involved in any form of connection. While she was sleeping, White perceived this as a chance to assault her for his sexual satisfaction.
“I am aware that she still experiences the consequences of what occurred up until now.” I hope that the knowledge of Andrew White receiving a substantial jail sentence will bring her a modicum of solace.
According to the pre-sentencing assessment, Andrew White was evaluated as someone who presents a substantial threat of causing severe harm to adult women. Consequently, we speculate that there might be further individuals who have been harmed by White but have not yet reported their experiences.
“I strongly encourage any potential victims to contact us promptly.” We are committed to attentively hearing your concerns, taking decisive action, and employing every possible effort to ensure that justice is served to you.
Andrew White, residing at Walworth Road SE1, was convicted and sentenced at Inner London Crown Court on Monday.
Andrew White was found guilty in May of one charge of rape, one charge of non-fatal strangling, and possession of a class B narcotic in a previous hearing.
