DOCTORS have completed mental health assessments on a sex attacker who tried to rape a woman as she walked home from a night out.
Latvian Rolands Brize admitted attempting to rape the 23-year-old woman a year ago, but is still awaiting sentence after the case was delayed 11 times.
A judge branded the case a scandal after hearing there had been a shortage of beds at a suitable hospital facility and a lack of available translators.
However, the hospital where Brize has been treated since January has now confirmed all assessments have been completed.
Judge Mark Bury said he would sentence Brize next month whether he had been fully assessed or not.
Psychiatrists are likely to recommend he is given a hospital order, but Judge Bury said he is still considering jailing Brize for life.
A spokesman for Chadwick Lodge, where Brize is being treated, said: "This case has been with our hospital for less than three months.
"We have deployed all the relevant professionals to ensure it is dealt with speedily after delays in the system before the case reached us.
"Our assessment has taken about 12 weeks, which is within the normal time frame expected of such cases.
"All our reports will be available for the next court hearing."
After hearing the case would be postponed for the 11th time, the victim said: "I feel everything is on the offender's terms because it's best for him and his frame of mind and so they don't do anything that makes him feel uncomfortable, uneasy or unwell. What about how this makes me feel?"
She had been walking from Sugar Mill nightclub on March 9 last year when Brize, who had been refused entry to the club, grabbed her from behind on Myton Bridge.
She screamed and managed to shake him off before frantically calling 999 to tell the operator she was being followed.
While she was still on the phone, Brize grabbed her again, pulled her onto a footpath by the bridge over the River Hull and tried to rape her.
The operator sent police officers to the scene, who found the woman's shoes and handbag strewn across the pavement.
They followed the trail and found Brize attacking the woman, who was still connected to the call operator.
He is due to be sentenced at Hull Crown Court next month.
