A former pub landlord in Cheshire has been jailed after he was convicted of raping a woman he plied with alcohol.
Aaron Poole, 45, of Garden Lane, Chester, was sentenced to nine years in prison after he was found guilty of one count of rape. A five day trial at Chester Crown Court, which concluded on Friday, June 9, heard that Poole met his victim at an event on October 10, 2020.
After the event, Poole took the woman back to the pub he managed, The Chichester Arms on Garden Lane, and served her alcohol. He then took the heavily intoxicated woman to his living quarters and raped her.
