A man who sexually abused a sleeping woman has been warned he could be facing a jail term.
Edward Fortune, of Wood Lane, Chippenham, pleaded not guilty to a charge of assault by penetration in February last year.
But following a trial at Swindon Crown Court the jury found the 30-year-old guilty of the offence.
Judge Tim Mousley QC adjourned the case to a date to be fixed to allow the probation service to compile a presentence report.
He said "You must understand that all sentencing options will be open to me an that does include a period of immediate imprisonment."
