A teen girl was sexually assaulted by a man after she got drunk and was put to bed by pals.
Matthew Lindsay, 22, carried out the attack on the 19-year-old in a Leith flat in Edinburgh following a drinking session.
The victim had been sick and friends put her into a bed with only the top half of her clothing on.
Lindsay also became intoxicated and was allowed to sleep next to the girl.
But a friend went to the bedroom and found Lindsay had stripped off his shorts and boxers.
A test on Lindsay found DNA from the victim on it.
