The prosecutor, Richard Bennett, said the woman did not
struggle but “acquiesced through fear” when both men then r*ped her.
One of the twin brothers, Daryl Salt, was also charged separately
for imprisoning and raping another woman four times before letting her go.
Daryl Salt was described in court as a Jekyll and Hyde
character who had “a veneer of charm with an explosive and violent temper”.
His second alleged victim said she was locked in his property
and he removed the doorknob to stop her from escaping.
The woman tried to flee but he dragged her back upstairs,
threw her on the bed and ripped her clothes off, the court heard.
“Daryl Salt put his arms around her throat and restricted
her breathing by applying pressure,” the prosecutor said.
“She thought she was going to die at that stage and sought
to calm him down.”
They fell asleep but she was still imprisoned when they
awoke.
He r*ped her, despite the victim repeatedly saying “no”, he
explained.
He then took “souvenir” photos of the woman as she dressed,
some of them covertly.
“When she objected to him he told her he was going to put
them all over Facebook and show people what a slapper she was,” the prosecutor
said.
The jury was then showed pictures recovered from his mobile
phone.
He is presently been accused of five counts of r*pe and two
counts of false imprisonment against two women between May 2010 and July 2012.
It is alleged he r*ped the first complainant a total of four
times and the second complainant once.
Thomas Salt, his twin brother is also accused of two counts
of r*pe and one of assault by penetration against the first of the two alleged
victims.
Both brothers, from Camblesforth, near Selby, North Yorks,
deny all the charges.
