The woman who duped her best friend into thinking she was a man and then had sex with her has been found guilty, reports the Mirror. She'll receive a sentence in November.
The offender, Gayle Newland, originally plead not guilty to five counts of sexual assault after the friend accused her of impersonating a man named Kye Fortune first on Facebook and then IRL.
Posing as Fortune, Newland allegedly told the woman that a car accident and a brain tumor had left "him" self-conscious of his body, a lie she then used to coerce the woman into donning a blindfold during sex. They had sex about ten times like this until the friend pulled off the blindfold, discovering Kye was a woman—her buddy—wearing a fake penis.
In court, Newland maintained the charges against her were bogus, and that the complainant knew she was a woman the whole time: Kye Fortune was just a role-playing fantasy that they used to cope with their sexual identities.
