A woman who tricked her female friend into having sex by pretending to be a man for two years has been jailed for 8 years.
Gayle Newland, 25, disguised her appearance and voice as she persuaded the other woman to put on a blindfold when they met up.
The pair had sex about 10 times until the complainant ripped off her mask and in disbelief saw Newland wearing a prosthetic penis.
Newland was found guilty on three charges of sexual assault following a trial.
She wept uncontrollably as she was jailed for eight years by Judge Roger Dutton at Chester Crown Court today.Newland was so distraught she was unable to stand and had to be physically carried down to the cells where he shouts and cries could still be heard in the courtroom.
Her family were left visibly stunned by the lengthy sentence, with one heard to say "That did not f***ing just happen" .
Before she was sent down, they shouted "we are here from you" from the public gallery.
