Ex-soldier 'should receive long sentence', alleged victim tells court

A former soldier who tried to force a disorientated woman to give him oral sex should receive a long prison sentence when he is sentenced in two weeks, according to his victim.

Thomas Dalton (aged 28) of Deerpark House, Baltinglass, Wicklow was convicted of sexual assault last March following a eight-day trial. He was acquitted of the related charge of oral rape on the woman.
