Can You Sleepwalk Into a Crime?

Can you sleepwalk your way into crime? That’s what happened to Adam Ball, who sleepwalked into an underaged girl’s bed:

Just over a year ago, Alan Ball went to a New Year’s Eve house party, drank heavily and fell asleep on a sofa.

At some point during the night, he got up, went upstairs and climbed into bed with an under-age girl, whom he kissed on the lips.

After a year in which this lorry-driving father lost his job and was able to see his five-year-old daughter only during supervised visits, a judge at Preston Crown Court this week cleared him of sexual assault after the 35-year-old claimed he was sleepwalking at the time of the incident and had no memory of the events.
