A pervert dressed in women's tights and boxer shorts tried to get into bed with a woman and rape her. But the woman kicked Mark Maddock in the chest and "screamed blue murder", causing Maddock, 47, to flee.
It was only later that the woman learned that he had been in the house with the woman for six hours before he struck and that he had with him toy handcuffs and a blindfold. There were also items of the woman's underwear found in the home with Maddock's DNA on them, LeicestershireLive reports.
Leicester Crown Court heard that Maddock had been seen standing outside the victim's home in the months leading up to the incident on Saturday, June 11, last year. He had even been challenged by the woman's neighbours on one occasion but lied and said he had got the wrong house.
