Tommy Eastwood

A rapist who repeatedly targeted a woman in her own home during an eight-year campaign of sexual abuse, stalking and control has been jailed for 18 years and six months.

Tommy Eastwood, 26, from Gravesend, was sentenced at Maidstone Crown Court on 2 October after a jury convicted him of two counts of rape, sexual assault, stalking and engaging in coercive and controlling behaviour.

The investigation began in December 2024 when the victim reported years of stalking and controlling behaviour by Eastwood.

Police arrested him, and during the investigation she disclosed repeated sexual abuse over the same period.

Officers established that Eastwood had attended her home in Gravesend and subjected her to sexual abuse. He was arrested again in April 2025.

Eastwood denied the allegations but was found guilty of all five offences on 14 April 2026.

Eastwood’s repeated targeting of the victim in her own home caused prolonged distress and trauma.
