A man who sexually assaulted a woman while she was sleeping has been jailed.
Jordan Wade, 28, inappropriately touched his victim at her Peterborough home at about 9pm on 3 February, 2021, and woke her up.
She asked him to get off and Wade told her he had been doing it for 10 minutes.

He left and the victim reported the assault to police.
On Thursday (22 February), at Peterborough Crown Court, Wade, of Mendip Grove, Peterborough, was jailed for two years and eight months, having been found guilty of assault by penetration.
DC Andrew Donaldson said: “Wade took advantage of the victim while she was sleeping so I am glad he has been jailed.
"I would like to thank the victim for her bravery in coming forward and attending court to give evidence almost three years after the offence.
“Sexual crimes have a massive impact on victims, and we take all allegations very seriously. We would encourage victims to come forward – you will be treated sensitively and supported.”
