Student bit woman in sex attack

A COLLEGE student repeatedly bit a woman on her body during a sex attack after he had been drinking.

Grant Wallace, 21, was originally charged with raping the victim at a flat in Yeaman Place, in Edinburgh, on 11 October, 2008.

A jury acquitted him of the rape allegation, which he had denied, but found him guilty of indecently assaulting the 22-year-old.

The woman told the High Court in Edinburgh that at one point she looked down and could see blood.

The woman said she never went out for five months afterwards and was off work. She added: "I lashed out at people."

Wallace, a former sports and recreation student at Telford College, phoned the woman to come to the flat where he had been drinking with others.

After the jury cleared Wallace, formerly of Lawrie Terrace, Loanhead, in Midlothian, of rape but found him guilty of indecent assault a judge deferred sentence on him for the preparation of a background report.

Lord Pentland also placed him on the sex offenders' register.
