Rapist jailed over 'abhorrent' attacks on woman

Daniel Robinson is described as a "dangerous man" by police

A "dangerous" man who repeatedly raped and sexually assaulted a woman has been jailed.

Daniel Robinson, 32, continued his "abhorrent" crimes despite his victim telling him to stop, Lancashire Police said.

He was found guilty of three counts of rape and four sexual assault charges and was given a 22-year sentence at Preston Crown Court.

In her court impact statement, the victim said: "It's been such a long time since I felt happiness. I just feel hurt and lost."

She added that she was "tired of being in survival mode daily just to get through each day".

Det Sgt Gem Lashley said: "Understandably, Robinson's actions will have had a huge impact on [the victim], but I hope she can now begin to move forward with her life knowing that he has been brought to justice and is serving a significant custodial sentence for his crimes.

"Robinson's crimes were abhorrent. When his victim told him to stop, he continued to rape her.

"He is a dangerous man and I am pleased he has been brought to justice."
