Lancaster man jailed for sexual assault
Talbot-Johnstone was found guilty by a jury
A Lancaster man has been jailed for more than five years for sexually assaulting a woman.
Timothy Talbot-Johnstone, 53, was sentenced to five years and three months when he appeared before a judge at Preston Crown Court.
Lancashire Police launched an investigation after the victim made a complaint against Talbot-Johnstone.
She reported that he had punched her in the stomach soon after she’d had a surgical procedure.
The victim made a further report of sexual assault.
Talbot-Johnstone, formerly of The Piazza, Lancaster, was found guilty by a jury of assault causing actual bodily harm after a trial in September last year.
He then pleaded guilty to an offence of sexual assault at a hearing last December.
Talbot-Johnstone was jailed and given a 10-year restraining order.
