Anthony Shackleton's actions were described as 'dark and deviant'
Anthony Shackleton broke into a property in Woodchurch in the early hours of Wednesday, May 31. Inside was a woman in her 80s, who cannot be named for legal reasons, who was asleep at the time.
He also placed, what was described as like a golf ball, in her mouth and a flannel over her face. Mr Dudley told the court Shackleton also slapped her in the face leaving a "red mark". Her daughter also provided a victim impact statement and described how her mum's life has been "shattered" following the incident. She said how her mum was rushed to hospital following the incident and doctors feared she would not survive the night due to being so frail.
The court heard how Shackleton had four previous convictions in his adult life, including burglary and conspiracy to commit blackmail. Chris Stables, defending, told the court the mitigating circumstances put forward was "in no way an attempt to justify what happened" and there was "scant mitigation to be found".
He said Shackleton had previous employment and did "possess employability skills". Mr Stables said: "He feels disgusted and embarrassed and regrets it bitterly."
