A pregnant woman, 33, had on Wednesday, January 28, 2015 caught a 35-year-old man pleasuring himself on top of her while she was sleeping inside a train.
The man, Manny Ramos from Brooklyn, New York City who works with one Metro North Railway blamed his actions on stress from a training.
In his confession to the police, Ramos said, “I was studying for the test when I started to have unwanted thoughts. I began to touch myself when I felt ill with a headache and stressed, the next thing I knew I was masturbating.”
According to Connecticut Post, the woman who was six months pregnant, told Golden Hill Street courthouse in Bridgeport, Connecticut, that when she screamed for help, no passengers came to help her.
‘After the incident, I never snoozed or slept again on the train, since I was afraid that it could happen again.
‘Considering that this horrible event happened during working time, I really think his future employers should know about what happened … This clearly was a sexual attack, and he should have a record of this.’
Ramos, pleaded guilty to fourth-degree sexual assault, public indecency and second-degree breach of peace.
He was later handed a two-year suspended sentence, ordered to register as a sex offender, and handed three years’ probation.
