Unmasked: The faces of the four men from all walks of life who 'sexually assaulted woman while she was drugged by her own husband'

Translate

These are the faces of the four men accused of sexually assaulting an unwitting woman after she was repeatedly drugged by her own husband.

Taxi driver Richard Wilkins, 62, singer and businessman Norman Macksoni, 48, Amazon worker Mohammed Hassan, 38, and MOD worker Connor Sanderson-Doyle, 32, are on trial for a range of sexual offences relating to Joanne Young.

Ms Young waived her right to anonymity in December, when details of the more than 60 alleged offences against her were made public.

But while the quartet of defendants have been drawn by courtroom artists while standing in the dock of Winchester Crown Court during their trial, they have generally worn face coverings while outside the court.

Because of this, only Sanderson-Doyle of the four has been photographed during the trial for alleged sexual abuse of Ms Young, 49, at her home in Swindon between 2016 and 2023.

As well as the four men who deny the charges against them, a fifth man, Dean Hamilton, 47, has admitted offences against Ms Young.

Joanne Young, 49, waived her anonymity after her husband and five men were charged with sexual offences against her

And her now ex-husband, sales consultant and former Conservative councillor Philip Young, 50, has also pleaded guilty to a total of 56 charges.

The court was previously told the investigation into Young was launched after police were alerted to the fact he had uploaded extreme pornographic images to the internet in 2023.

Searches of his devices found nearly 500 images of Ms Young 'in a state of undress'.

The jury was told that while Mr Young had pleaded guilty and was not on trial, this did not indicate guilt in the cases of the four defendants.

The four men, who deny the charges ranging from sexual touching to rape, are alleged to have carried out the assaults on separate occasions between 2016 and 2023 after being recruited by Young online.

Prosecutor Sarah Jones KC said that Ms Young had been 'shackled and blindfolded' as she was abused by men 'plucked from the internet' while her husband watched or filmed her ordeal.

'He sought strangers to come and sleep with his wife - any age, any race – but as close to Swindon as possible so that when the circumstances were right they could be seized upon immediately,' Ms Jones KC said.

'He presented it as a kink for both of them but there was no information from Joanne herself to support this.'

She said he uploaded photos of Ms Young to 'advertise his offer' which showed his wife 'inanimate and tied to the bed blindfolded'.

The court was told that Young had placed 20 adverts on Craigslist alone inviting men to have sex with his wife.

One advert stated: 'When my wife gets p***ed, she gets randy and we have started running through some fantasies and one of the fantasies is having her tied to the bed.'

It continued to state that the idea is to 'quietly use her body' and that 'even a voice would be a giveaway' to the person's identity.

In fact, Ms Young, the court heard, was 'emphatically monogamous' and described herself as 'vanilla'.

And while she said she had complied with her husband's 'preferences' to blindfold and restrain her, she had never agreed to sleep with anyone else.

The court heard he had tested her boundaries by asking if she would be open to sleeping with someone else.

'He asked if she would ever want to sleep with someone else, she replied very clearly "No,"' and she said: 'He made some joke about, um, as long as I could watch you.'

'There was no way he would ever think it was acceptable at all,' Ms Jones said.

The prosecutor told the court that Young became fixated on his desire to fulfil his fantasy of watching others have sex with the mother of his children and began drugging his wife.

'The nightcap they shared it appeared would be used to plunge her into a state where anything could be done to her by whoever answered and she would be unaware or unable to remember,' she said.

Young has admitted 48 offences against his ex-wife, including voyeurism, rape, administering a substance with intent, assault by penetration and sexual assault.

Dean Hamilton, 47, was one of five men charged with sex offences against Ms Young, in addition to her husband

Unlike the other defendants, Hamilton has admitted the charges against him 

He also pleaded guilty to three charges of making indecent images of children, one of possessing prohibited images of children, and four of possessing an extreme pornographic image.

Hamilton, 47, of Street, Somerset, has admitted one charge of assault by penetration, two of sexual assault and one of rape.

Young and Hamilton will be sentenced at the end of the current trial.
