A man who raped a woman while she was unconscious also turned out to have attacked a child.

Michael Wynter, 34, of Crayshaw Road, Lambeth appeared at the Old Bailey on Tuesday (April 30) where he was jailed for the rape, which was committed in Pinner between 2019 and 2021.

He had raped the victim while she was asleep or unconscious and was arrested in December 2021.

During the investigation, officers gathered communication evidence from both Wynter and the victim’s devices.

They spoke to a witness the victim had confided in throughout the ordeal and took a detailed statement from the victim as further evidence.

Wynter was found to have been on the Sex Offenders Register since 2021 having been convicted of sexual assault of a child that took place between 2002 and 2003.

He has now been jailed for seven years, and will remain on the Sex Offenders Register for life.

Detective Constable Adam Conibeere, who led the investigation, called Wynter “an extreme sexual deviant” and praised the victim for her courage.

He said: “I can only hope this outcome will help to provide some comfort and bring the closure she deserves as she tries to move on with her life.

“She showed incredible strength and heroism in coming forward to report the matter after lengthy consideration, due to the fact she did not want anyone else to suffer at the hands of Wynter.

"Tackling violence against women and girls is a key priority for the Met. We will continue to do all we can to remove predatory offenders from the streets of London while supporting the complainants and helping them through every stage."
