A Metropolitan policeman, Jake Cummings, is on trial for rape following accusations from two women. One victim described feeling "scared" during their relationship, stating he would "lock me in rooms" and shout in her face. She claimed that during an incident after helping him move, she reluctantly consented to sexual contact despite saying "no" multiple times due to fear of his anger. The prosecution highlighted Cummings's previous convictions for controlling behavior and stalking. Another woman also accused him of rape in 2021, with no prior connection between the two women.
"At some point during the encounter I said 'OK' because I did not want to anger the defendant... if you say no to something, he tends to get angry."
"He would lock me in rooms, lock doorways... he would shout in my face. He scared me... if I said no, what he would do."
