A Scottish man has admitted raping a female friend in front of her wheelchair-bound mother, saying he was drunk when he committed the crime.
Reece Fleming, 21, pleaded guilty Friday, The Scotsman reported. He told the High Court in Edinburgh he had drunk 14 bottles of beer before the attack, which occurred after he watched television with his 18-year-old victim and her mother.
The victim said Fleming pulled out a knife, stabbed the couch and told her to undress.
“No words can explain how I felt that night. Petrified would probably be the best I can manage. I was more scared that something would happen to my mum than me,” the victim said. “He had watched the movie ‘Paranormal Activity 4‘ the week before. At first I thought he was ... joking around. It was when he stabbed the couch that I realized he was being serious.”
She said Fleming told her he was “David” and that “Reece” had gone. After the attack, he fell back on a bed and then, a few minutes later, opened his eyes and asked where he was.
He begged her not to tell “Reece” what he had done, she said.
Fleming, a delivery driver for takeout food, was jailed immediately after his guilty plea. He is to be sentenced next month following a psychiatric evaluation. (UPI)

20대男, 휠체어 탄 엄마 앞에서 '몹쓸짓'
스코틀랜드의 20대 남성이 술에 취한 상태로 휠체어를 탄 피해자의 어머니가 보는 앞에서 이성 친구를 성폭행했다고 시인했다.
리스 플래밍 (21)는 금요일 (현지시각) 에딩버그 고등법원에서 범죄 행위를 인정했다. 사건 당시 그는 18세인 피해자, 피해자의 어머니와 함께 TV를 시청했으며 14병의 맥주를 마신 음주상태였다고 말했다.
피해자는 플래밍이 흉기를 꺼내 옷을 벗으라고 협박했다며 “그 날 밤 어떤 느낌이었는지 설명할 길이 없다. 내가 할 수 있는 일이라곤 망연자실하는 것뿐 이었다. 나한테보다 엄마한테 무슨 일이 일어날 까봐 무서웠다”고 말했다.
그녀는 또 “플래밍이 일주일 전에 공포영화 ‘파라노말 액티비티 4’를 봤다고 말했을 때 처음에는 장난인 줄 알았다. 그가 흉기로 소파를 찌르는 모습을 보고 농담이 아니라는 것을 깨달았다”고 말했다.
플래밍은 피해자에게 자기 이름이 ‘리스’가 아닌 ‘데이비드’라고 말한 점, 침대에 쓰러진지 몇 분 뒤 일어나 지금 자신이 어디 있냐고 뭍는 등 이상행동을 보여 정신 감정을 마친 다음달 판결을 받게 된다.
