Rushane Hendricks approached a 17-year-old girl and 18-year-old woman he did not know who were sat in The Spinney woodland area of Putnoe in April 2021.
Hendricks started plying the two with alcohol and cannabis and became increasingly aggressive.
After trying to kiss them both, he forced himself onto one of them and sexually assaulted her.
The other girl managed to record a video while it was happening, where the victim could clearly be heard telling Hendricks to stop.
Hendricks, 29, of Monkshill, Bedford, ran away from the scene when the girl managed to telephone her boyfriend and he and his friends came to help her.
Detectives were able to trace Hendricks’ phone, which was used to place a call to the victim’s phone earlier on in the evening when she was trying to find it.
Officers found his fingerprints on a bottle of vodka at the scene, and also recovered clothing matching that worn by the suspect from his address.
Hendricks pleaded guilty to assault by penetration, and earlier this month was found not guilty of rape and sexual assault.
On Friday (21 April) Hendricks was sentenced to four years and six months at Luton Crown Court.
He was also identified as a ‘dangerous’ offender so will serve an extended licence period of two years following his release.
