A stockbroker has been jailed for six years for raping a woman he claimed he thought was crying during the ordeal because of his 10-inch penis.

Daniel Green, 26, attacked the woman, in her 20s, after she curled up to sleep under a desk following a cocaine and champagne-fuelled office party on May 16, 2015.

Green insisted the sex was consensual but an Old Bailey jury convicted him by a majority of 11 to one after deliberating for six hours.

Mr Recorder Michael Wood QC: "I don't punish you for what seems to be a City culture of excessive drinking and casual use of drugs when you go out socialising.

"However, that evening, having been out drinking and taking cocaine in the early hours of the morning, you were wandering around after being told to go on a number of occasions, behaving in a strange fashion.

"You went into an office where she was asleep. While still asleep you removed her trousers and knickers,' he told Green.

"When you saw her crying, your reaction was totally impersonal - "oh f***, she's crying".

"You have showed no remorse, quite the contrary."

The pair met during after-work drinks in the City of London and went back with a group of Green's colleagues to the StratX stockbrokers' offices near Monument, where he had only recently started work.

While there, partygoers danced on desks to music, drank champagne and took lines of cocaine into the early hours, the court heard.

Most went home after the mood soured when the victim's friend complained her stash of cocaine had gone missing because she was reluctant to share it.

The victim, who cannot be identified, was left in the office with Green, her friend and another StratX employee who tried to rekindle the party atmosphere.

But she told jurors she became tired and decided to take a nap under a desk, intending to catch the first train home because she did not have enough money for a taxi.

Wiping away tears, she described how she awoke to find Green "tugging" her trousers down and asked him "What the f*** are you doing?"

"At that point I remember just trying to crawl forward to get away. I knew what was going to happen. I remember being pulled back," she told the jury.

"The next thing I remember was Daniel raping me.

"I was still trying to wriggle away, doing anything I could to stop that. I guess I was in a state of shock at what was happening. I was just trying to say no and get across this is something I don't want to happen.

"I just kept saying 'No, no, no, no, no, no' but it absolutely didn't stop anything.

"He was making sexual noises, making me feel horrible, so I burst into tears. After realising I was not going to get away and this was actually happening, I started crying, and at that point - it seemed so bizarre as he'd said absolutely nothing before - he said 'Oh shit, she's crying'.

"He got off then. I was just distraught. Then he was out of the office really quickly."

The woman rang her best friend from the office and she alerted police, who arrested Green, of Walthamstow, east London.

Green insisted the sex was consensual and that he stopped when she began to cry as he thought he was causing pain.

He said: "Maybe my penis was hurting her. I always have difficulty when it comes to having sex with girls. I find my penis is hard to penetrate females."

The rapist claimed his penis was 10in (25cm) long and around 4in (10cm) in girth.

He was expected to be sentenced later today.
