By ALASTAIR TAYLOR A BARMAN accused of rape was yesterday cleared after telling a jury he must have been SLEEPWALKING at the time.
James Bilton, 22, did not deny having sex with the female pal but told York Crown Court he could not remember it.
He said: “Sleepwalking is the only explanation I can come up with.”
The woman said Bilton let her have his bedroom at his York flat after a night out and kissed her on the forehead before going to sleep on the sofa. But she woke up to find her jeans had been taken off.
He then had sex with her three times in minutes. An expert said he had a history of sleepwalking and four per cent of sufferers commit sex acts as they “slept”.
The acquittal follows a similar case in Canada where Jan Luedecke, 33, was accused of raping a woman on a couch at a party. He was cleared last month after experts said he had “sexsomnia”.
Well, i dunno, but i've seen my bro touching himself at night in the bed, when my mum caught him red handed, he said he wasn't aware of it and i think he was telling the truth.. But, i don't think anybody can unconsciously (sp?) have sex with someone. But, weird things do happen, if it is true something should be done about it.
