HIGH on drink and drugs, Oliver Beeput invaded a combined birthday party and hen night and exposed himself to the eight women present, Southampton Crown Court heard.

When one guest escorted him out of the kitchen to the front door, he groped one of her breasts, said prosecutor Eleanor Fargin.

Beeput had only been out of prison for a few hours and had knocked back a couple of drinks with a legal high before going to a probation hostel where by chance an office supervisor spotted him on a security camera exposing himself outside a lavatory on the second floor.

Afterwards he walked across the road to the party.

Beeput, 50, of no fixed abode, admitted two counts of exposure and one each of trespass with intent to commit a sexual offence and sexual assault.

Jailing him for 20 months, Judge Peter Henry told him the term legal high was a misnomer. “They are dangerous and influence people.”

In mitigation, Keely Harvey said Beeput suffered from schizophrenia for which he had been prescribed medication, but the combination of that with the drink and ldgal high put over the top. “He has little recollection of what then happened.”
