Man Jailed for Rape at Bucks Pub
A 32-year-old man has been sentenced to two-and-a-half years in prison for rape at a pub in Buckinghamshire.
Matthew Clayden, aged 32, of Norfolk Road, Buntingford, Hertfordshire, pleaded guilty to rape and sexual assault at Amersham Crown Court on Monday (February 21).
The incident occurred on August 27 last year when the victim, who was out for drinks with friends, was left alone with Clayden. He then kissed her, touched her breasts, and forced her to perform oral sex.
Clayden has been placed on the sex offenders register for life.
Investigating officer, Detective Constable Laura Wright, based at Aylesbury police station, said: "This is a suitable conviction for a serious crime committed against a vulnerable young woman, who was having some drinks with friends. The victim, in this case, has been extremely strong throughout this investigation and hopefully she and her family are happy that justice has been served against the offender."
