She inflicted the injuries at her home in Blackburn, Lancashire, on 14 June, Burnley Crown Court was told. The word "Dominique" and slash marks were scratched on to his body. Mr Robinson, 24, told police he had drunk vodka and taken valium and was not awake during the incident at the defendant's home in Roebuck Close.

Judge Andrew Woolman, Burnley Crown Court During her three-day trial at Preston Crown Court last month, Fisher said Mr Robinson had been aware of what she was doing,. She was found guilty of one charge of unlawful wounding. The pair had met two nights earlier in a Blackpool nightclub. They had gone back to a flat and taken cocaine together before arranging to meet again at her home. Judge Andrew Woolman told Fisher: "Both of you had a great deal to drink and took other substances, including valium, and both of you were in no fit state to be doing anything. 'Needy young woman' "It seems there was consensual sexual intercourse, although Wayne Robinson doesn't recall it. "In that drunken, drugged-up atmosphere it seemed you got hold of a blade and carved your initials and other patterns into his body. "The cuts were not deep, fortunately, although they could have been and they have left permanent scars and left your name carved into his arm." The judge said a pre-sentence report identified her as a "very isolated and needy young woman" and said she needed help in several areas of her life. He warned Fisher that, if she breached her community order, she would be brought back before the court.
