A Norwich man has been jailed for more than eight years after being found guilty of a serious sexual assault.
29 year old Reece Larkin, of Humbleyard, attacked a woman who'd fallen asleep at his home on 15 September 2019.
He was subsequently arrested and charged with rape and sexual assault.
He was found guilty at Norwich Crown Court and was sentenced to eight years and six months behind bars yesterday (June 23).
He will be on the sex offenders register indefinitely.
Investigating Officer DC Jordan Bulmer, of Norfolk Police said: “I hope yesterday's sentence will reassure victims of rape and sexual assault, that we will take reports seriously.
"We will always investigate to the best of our ability and hold offenders to account.
“I am particularly keen to commend the bravery of the victim in coming forward and having the courage to speak to us about something that has been incredibly traumatic.”
