A Wellington woman tried to explain to a brutal rapist that she could be pregnant with her first child and begged him not to hurt her.
It did not matter to Bailey Meredith, 17, who violated her over and over during an attack on the Hutt River riverbank on June 11 before beating her unconscious.
She had been out walking when he had grabbed her from behind, ordering her to her knees before saying he intended to rape her….
The judge jailed Meredith for eight years but did not impose a minimum non-parole period.
