Rapist: I don't get sex from my wife, so i go to get it elsewhere

A Cambridge University graduate has defended her sex predator husband who told his victim he was raping her because 'he didn't get sex from his wife'.
Adriana Ford-Thompson, a York University research and teaching fellow, described her 37-year-old husband Mark Thompson - branded a danger to women by the judge - as ‘gentle, kind and sensitive’.
The environmentalist said the jury had 'taken my husband away from me' by finding him guilty, before he was given life in jail for the kidnap and rape of a student and sex attacks on three other women.

Mrs Ford-Thompson sat through every day of his trial and vowed to stand by him despite hearing harrowing details of the ordeal suffered by a 21-year-old student at the university she works at.
The woman was walking home from her job in a club at 3.50am when he snatched her from the street and bundled her into his white van before raping her three times as he drove around the city.
Teesside Crown Court heard that at one point, martial arts expert Thompson - who is the son of a church pastor - told the undergraduate: ‘I don't get sex from my wife, so I go to get it elsewhere.’

But despite the shocking details of self-confessed drug taker and adulterer Thompson's crimes, Mrs Ford-Thompson mouthed ‘I love you’ and ‘stay strong’ to him throughout the nine-day trial.
