His victim was a stranger to him when he raped her as she slept after a 21st birthday party at Newarthill, Lanarkshire, on May 20, 2017.
The woman told the prosecution she woke up to find Nisbet having sex with her and shouted at him: “Get out the f*****g room.”

She said in evidence: “This is the worst thing that has ever happened to me.”
Witnesses described the woman as “hysterical and crying,” and one said her terrified screams were like something out of a horror movie.
Nisbet claimed they had consensual sex but, when this suggestion was put to his victim, she stated: “That is an absolute lie.”
Nisbet was placed on the sex offenders’ register.
