Edward Weeks recorded the attack on motion-sensitive cameras set up in his bedroom.

A woman took her own life after her partner filmed himself raping and sexually assaulting her while she slept.

She then reported the incident to a social worker. The court heard how Ms Lewis suffered with ADHD and emotional difficulties and the investigation process became too much for her – and led to her taking her own life. Matthew Cobbe, prosecuting, described Ms Lewis as “very vulnerable”. Ms Lewis then confided in a friend before a social worker reported the incident to police on December 30.

Mr Cobbe said the incident was a clear abuse of trust by Weeks given Ms Lewis’ difficulties, that were known to him. He said other aggravating factors included the fact she was asleep and that it was recorded on cameras, that Weeks would have known were live at the time.
