A rapist high on cocaine who attacked a woman in her own bed as she slept has been jailed.
Kyle Whitelaw was found guilty following a trial which had been held at Leeds Crown Court and sentenced this week.
The 32-year-old was told by Judger Robin Mairs that his actions were "fuelled by cocaine and sexual entitlement", even after the woman spurned his advances in no uncertain terms and who also tried to fight him off.
