Actor Kevin Guthrie was jailed for three years on Friday after he was convicted of sexually assaulting a vulnerable actress.
Guthrie, who played villainous wizard Abernathy in the first two films in the Harry Potter spin-off franchise Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, was accused of assaulting a 29-year-old woman who had appeared unwell during a night out in Glasgow, Scotland in September 2017.
The Sunshine on Leith actor previously told a trial at the city's sheriff court he "helped" the woman after she fell ill, according to the BBC. However, the victim told the court how he performed sex acts on her after she was helped to bed at fellow actor Scott Reid's flat. The jury heard his DNA was found in her underwear.
