Hide AdA victim impact statement from one victim was read to the court on his behalf by prosecutor Ashleigh Metcalfe. He said: “I have suffered in every aspect of my life. I can’t sleep anymore because I have nightmares where I’m back in his flat.


“I try not to sleep now. I suffer from panic attacks when out in public. I will not go out anymore alone. I no longer trust anyone. I can’t look in the mirror at myself anymore. I relive the horror of these events every day. I feel completely empty inside like I no longer have a soul.”
The mother of the teenager added: “My boy died inside that day and I’m trying so hard to save him.”
Miss Metcalfe said a group of teenagers got into a conversation with Castillo at Wakefield Bus Station on November 12 last year, where Castillo gave one a bottle of beer. He invited the group to his home to have a party and they all boarded a bus.

The victim drank too much and passed out. He recalled being in the bathroom, but then woke up naked in Castillo’s bed, with Castillo under the cover performing a sex act on him.
Castillo had given the others money to go and buy more alcohol, but when they returned, they were alerted to what was happening and were able to get the victim out of the property and the police were called. The victim had to be swabbed at a rape centre and DNA matching Castillo’s was found on his boxer shorts.

Hide AdCastillo, of Newton Lane, Outwood, initially denied the offences, but later pleaded guilty. Mitigating, Michael Morley said Castillo had penned a letter “for his wrongdoing, his actions and his consequences”. He added: “There’s a real expression of remorse.”
He said that Castillo was originally from Mexico and had come the UK to gain the qualifications to teach. He said that he had since been attacked in own home with a hammer as a result of the sexual assault.
It was agreed by the Crown said that he never intended to get the teenager drunk to assault him, but took advantage.
Judge Andrew Stubbs KC told Castillo it was a “scene of complete debauchery engineered by you”, having got the victim’s friends temporarily out of his home so he could assault the teenager.

He said that Castillo minimised his crimes and that a probation report found him to be a risk to others. He jailed him for 18 months, put him on the sex offender register for 10 years and gave him a 10-year sexual harm prevention order (SHPO) to prevent him from unsupervised contact with anyone under 16. He is also barred from working with children.
