The court heard Newland had sex with another woman using a prosthetic penis without her consent.

The U.K. Sun reported Newland had lured the victim by creating a fake online persona – a half Filipino, half Latino named Kye Fortune – in a “disturbingly complex and astonishing deception” that lasted over a two-year period.

In the online profile, Newland (as Fortune) claimed to have a brain tumour, using bandages, a hat and a swimsuit to hide her body, the U.K. Sun reported.

While posing as a man, the court heard Newland blindfolded and manipulated the student and used a strap-on dildo to have sex with her 10 to 15 times.
