[excerpt]
On October 2, 1983 at approximately 3:50 a.m. a male intruder entered the female victim's home. The victim, who was asleep, awoke to find the intruder lying in bed next to her. The victim uses corrective contact lenses to see clearly, and was not wearing them at that time. Upon seeing the intruder, she began to scream. The intruder placed his hand over her mouth and a thumb on her throat to keep her from screaming. After she promised not to scream, the intruder released her and put a pillow over her face. The intruder then pulled his pants on and reached for his glasses on the top of the bed. Although she could not see the intruder's full face at this time, the victim saw his right profile. She testified the intruder was wearing LDS endowment garments used by those who practice the Mormon faith. The intruder then departed.
